All hair types are not the same, some persons are blessed with naturally curly hair while others have straight hair.
Whatever be your hair type, the main issue boils down to your hair maintenance.
Taking care of naturally curly hair may take greater effort because you’ll need to keep the curls in place.
See ways you could take care of your naturally curly hair.
1. Wash your hair once every 2-3 days, washing your hair every day may remove all the natural oil from your hair.
2. Don’t use a hair product that fits all hair types. Use products that are made to fit your curly hair type.
3. Sleep on a skating or silk pillowcase to reduce friction between hair strands.
4. Use olive oil to treat your curly hair. It adds moisture to your dry locks.
5. Get your naturally curly hair trimmed every 6-8 weeks to get rid of split ends and damaged hair.
6. Use cold water to rinse your hair when shampooing or conditioning your naturally curly hair. Hit water can strip off the natural oil from your scalp and natural hair.

8. Avoid excessive shampooing. It can remove the natural moisture in your hair. Look out for hair products with moisturizing ingredients.
9. Style your naturally curly hair with moderate heat. High temperatures can remove the natural texture of your curls, making them look thin.
10. When drying your curly hair, use a fabric that won’t cause too much friction. Friction from fabrics and too much rubbing can cause hair breakage.
11. Sleep in a protective style to avoid excessive tangling. You can put your hair up in a bun.
12. Detangle hair before washing. Pouring water into a tangled hair will cause it to lock up.
13. Use conditioners the right way, don’t leave them for too long. Most conditioners do their work within 15 minutes, after which you rinse your hair.
14. Keep your hands out of your curly hair. Fingers can attract moisture from oily hair. If you must touch your hair, let your fingers be completely dry.
