Curly hair is a double-edged sword. Your friends are jealous of those ringlets, but you have spent exorbitant amounts of time and money trying to figure out how to control the chaos. But your hair needn’t be such a bother if you possess the relevant knowledge. There are special shampoos for curly hair that drastically moisturise and enhance your curls. And for those times when you would just rather squash the mischievous buggers, the Babyliss Pro 230 straightener can make that process a smooth one (pun intended).

Shampoos for curly hair differ from regular shampoos because they are formulated knowing that curly hair is much drier than straight hair. Oils produced in the scalp have more difficulty travelling down the hair shaft of curly hair. With that in mind, shampoos for curly hair have been packed with smoothing moisturisers and frizz-fighting ingredients; look for ingredients like shea butter, macadamia oil, or wheat germ oil, among others. There are many different reputable brands of shampoos for curly hair. Even with shampoos for curly hair though, it is best not to shampoo curly hair every day, because your hair will just become thirstier and more unmanageable.

The Babyliss Pro 230 straightener can save the day when you need a change or simply can’t be bothered to deal with curls. The sleek little gadget features three heat settings and can reach its top temperature of 230 degrees Celsius in 15 seconds.  Its ceramic plates are 25% longer, which helps heat transfer evenly, and the ionic feature ensures that static is minimised so that hair is left silky and frizz-free. To minimise risk of forgetfulness, there is even an automatic switch-off feature.

You see? Curls don’t have to be a curse; they can be a complete blessing if you learn how to care for them correctly.
