Curly hair help?

Ok, so I have curly hair, and the only way I can ever get it to look good down is if i sleep in it wet, and then when i wake in the morning, a lot of times the curls look great. My problem is, they stay good for a couple hours, then it looks bad. what do i do about this?Curly hair help?
-Read the book and visit the sites below about curly hair. I did and my once horrible curly hair is now virtually frizz-free ringlets. Now I get compliments on my hair all the time! Straighten your hair- be happy for a day, learn to manage your curly hair- be happy for life!


- To style your hair using the curly-girl method you will need gel and conditioner at the minimum. Some less useful, but still nice stuff would be a blowdryer, a diffuser (reduces frizz in curly/wavy hair when used with dryer), and a microfiber hair turban (to dry wet hair while sleeping or in the morning).


-The main philosophy of the curly-girl method is to not use shampoo. This may sound unhygenic but it has actually made my hair less oily and dandruffy. Shampoos contain some of the same chemicals found in laundry detergent. They dry out curly hair.


- Massaging of the scalp with conditioner to remove dirt is all that is needed. Then rinse and spread conditioner on the outside layer of hair and the hair at the nape of your neck. Gently comb tangles out with your fingers or a wide toothed comb and rinse. It is also important to use gel on sopping wet hair and scrunch the hair. Then let your hair air dry or use a blowdryer with a diffuser.


- I really like the garnier fructis sleek and shine leave in cream and Tressemme clean hold gel, but there are more conditioners, gels, etc. on the websites. Frizz-ease hair serum is pretty good for fighting frizz.


- Your hair may seem worse at first, but it is just adjusting. This takes 2 to 4 weeks begin working.This is hard to do if you don't read the book, or at least visit the websites. Naturally curly hair can be beautiful! Hope this helps!Curly hair help?
It would help to have a better description of your hair, such as how thick is it, how long , when was your last trim/cut, how often do you wash it and with what, and when you say it looks bad what is it specifically looks bad? Frizzy? Messy? flat?etc.


All that aside, i have naturally curly hair and it is cool at times and not so tame most. I feel for you sista, mine is the same, go to bed put it in braid, or bun, and wake up with soft gorgeous hair. 35 ys of fixing this wild head has taught me .


- Use good products, all shampoo/conditioners ARE NOT equal!!!!!


-The best i've ever found is BIOSILK made by farouk There are a few different types in this line of products but none are as good as the first 3...


1. Biosilk silk therapy


2. Silk therapy shampoo


3. Silk therapy conditioner


When using make sure u use very hot water with both shampoo and cond. they are activated by the heat , and u and i both know if you touch a hair dryer u might as well of stuck ur finger in a light socket cuz you'll get the same results.


Also when you use the conditioner add a very small amount of the silk therapy liquid silk to it . this adds shine and manageability.


you can also take a small bottle of water with you to spritz throughout the day


Brush your hair every night , 100 strokes, this eliminates breakage and split ends and will make your hair lay down nicer during the day when you cant brush it
Do you mess and play with your hair alot? Cause I have curly/ wavy hair and the less I touch it the better! The more I touch and fuss with it, the more frizzy and bushy it looks! My hair looks best when I brush it out before washing it, after I wash it I do not brush it, I put it up in a towel until all the excess water is out. I then take it out of the towel and shake my head upside down, flip hair over and make sure all the pieces are in the right place and let AIR DRY!
Try spritzing it with water and immediately put some mousse in your hair. You may want to flip your hair over when you do this--it'll have a little more volume that way.





That should work.
i have really curly hair but to keep it that way without frizzing i have to do this..





when its wet i use any type of hair spray and i spray it on and scrunch my hair even though its already curly i scrunch and spray all over my hair and my hair stays pretty and curly all day long and doesnt get hard
