HAIR CARE GUIDE
HAIR CARE GUIDE
in the shower
- fully saturate your hair before shampooing
- focus shampoo on the scalp, not your ends (use fingertips)
- let shampoo sit for a minute to actually cleanse
- condition roots to ends (soaking wet hair)
- rinse with cool/warm water -not hot-
- clarify every couple weeks to remove buildup
Styling
- Start with clean, towel-dried hair (I prefer a t-shirt to dry)
- Use a leave-in or heat protectant before any styling
- Blow dry with tension for a smoother, longer-lasting finish
work in sections for control and consistency
keep heat moderate
- Finish with a light oil or serum if needed (mid-lengths to ends only)
real life
- Always use heat protectant... every time
- Before pool or ocean: saturate your hair and lather conditioner through it (don’t rinse)
- Use dry shampoo on clean hair to soak up oil as its produced
- Sleep on a satin or silk pillowcase if possible.
- Scrunchies are your best friend
fine/medium hair
prefers lightweight starches - rice starch
(absorbs oil without weighing the hair down or making it feel dusty)
coarse hair
handles heavier starches - arrowroot
(needs stronger absorption and can benefit from the added texture)
