The Best Way to Style Curly Hair

The key to styling curly hair is to work with your natural texture. Always use products designed specifically for curly hair. You can easily enhance your curls using these tips:

Use a sulphate-free shampoo and conditioner to cleanse your hair without stripping it of its natural oils
Apply a leave-in conditioner or curl-enhancing product to help define your curls and reduce frizz
Let your hair air dry or use a diffuser attachment on your blow dryer to dry your curls gently
Use a wide-tooth comb or your fingers to detangle your hair, starting from the ends and working your way up
Avoid brushing your hair when it’s dry, as this can cause frizz and break up your curls

Popular Curly Hair Styling Techniques

Once you have curled your hair, you can experiment with different styling techniques to create various looks. Here are some ideas to inspire you:

For a casual and effortless look, try the pineapple trick. This is a simple technique that involves gathering your hair into a loose ponytail on top of your head (like a pineapple) and securing it with a scrunchie or a silk scarf. This will keep your curls out of your face and add some volume to your roots. You can also leave some strands out for a more relaxed vibe
For a chic and elegant look, try a front braid. This is a great way to show off your curls and add some texture to your hair. To do this, take a section of hair from one side of your forehead and braid it towards the back of your head. Secure it with a bobby pin or clip it behind your ear. Repeat on the other side if you want a symmetrical look
For a fun and playful look, try some hair accessories. You can spice up your curls with some colourful clips, headbands, hats, or scarves. Accessories can also help you change up your parting, hide any greasy roots, or add some sparkle to your outfit

Top Curling Wand Styling Ideas

If you want to create curls with a high-quality curling wand, you have plenty of styling options you can choose from. You can browse our selected premium curling wands at Salon Trusted.

Here are some examples of how you can use a curling wand to achieve different looks:

For beachy waves, wrap large sections of hair around the middle of the wand and leave the ends out. This will create loose and natural-looking waves that are perfect for summer.
For glam curls, wrap small sections of hair around the entire length of the wand and curl them away from your face. This will create tight and bouncy curls that are ideal for special occasions.
For messy waves, wrap random sections of hair around the wand in different directions and different sizes. This will create an edgy and textured look that is great for everyday wear.
