    1. Forget your hair brush
    Forget the grandmother's advice: brush your hair 100 times every day ? Don't waste time and get rid of your hairbrush. Try the wide tooth comb. Or even more economic: your fingers. That way, you will brush your curls without creasing them or breaking them.

    2. Sleep on satin
    The advice can seem strange but curly hair deserves to sleep on satin. Why ? A cotton pillowcase will tend to dry the hair. A satin pillowcase will be silky and will limit the knots and the broken curls

    3. Vaporize
    The morning, use a water spray. You don't need to wash your hair, just use the water spray then work the hair with your fingers and dry it, head down, with a hairdryer with a diffuser. Be careful with hard water which tends to dry even more your hair - add a few drops of lavender essential oil for example in order to neutralize the adverse effect of water.

    4. Invest in a good hair care for curly hair
    If water is not sufficient to give peps to your curls, it's time to invest in a good hair care for curly hair. The texturizing saline spray beach effect Osis+ de Schwarzkopf will coat your hair for a bohemian tousled look. While the Curl conscious for curly hair “Curl Conscious” by Bumble and Bumble will reawaken soft waves and tame hyperactive curls. Don't put too much product on your hair.

    5. Special tip for wavy hair
    Regarding wavy hair, we have a special trick: the night hairstyle which save our days. Head down, twist and roll your hair up in a chignon at the top of the head - not too much tight nor too much loose. Put the ends in the chignon and fix everything with small hair clips - 4 or 5 without putting too much hair in the hair pin. And the next morning, undo your chignon, shake your hair, put a bit of serum to make shine your lengths and go out with a mermaid hair.

    6. And of course, the hair curler
    The hair curler may seem the most obvious solution to your problem however, you mustn't abuse of it. The heat is not the greatest friend of your hair. However, always use a heat protectant hair care.
