how to protect your curls overnight
Let’s elevate your current curl routine so you wake up with the best curls yet.
tip #1: prep your curls
For natural curls or coils: Starting off on the right foot is crucial to make your curls last for days. Begin your routine by brushing through your hair with a wide toothed comb to detangle and define your curly strands.
Not only does this keep the curls intact better than brushing, but your curls can maintain their natural bouncy shape. Meaning no need to style for days.
For styled curls: Ensure hair is freshly washed using your favourite amika’s curl range, this will remove any excess oil and ensure your curls aren’t getting weighed down. When you’re initially styling the hair, our top tip is to always hold your curls in your hand or in a clip after applying heat to cool your curls into place.
PSA: Only brush through your hair after it has cooled and set into place. The best way to keep curls overnight is to brush out curls in your morning regime to leave enough time for curls to lock in their shape.
tip #2: set and secure: lock in your curls after styling
For styled curls: Reach for a hairspray to hold your curls.
For natural curls or coils: If you are blessed with natural curls or coils you would be silly not to look after them, right?! Keeping fresh, bouncy curls for days requires just a little care and attention. Grab our curl corps defining cream and add a few drops to your mane to define and set your curls in place for long-lasting luscious locks! What’s not to love?
Expert tip: Concentrate the cream on the ends of the hair so the roots don’t get oily.
For styled curls: Reach for a hairspray to hold your curls
Styled curls need something a little stronger to hold those ringlets into place. We recommend a few sprays of our headstrong intense hold hairspray to freeze your curls into position. Headstrong is also infused with provitamin b5 which conditions your hair, so you don’t have to sacrifice feeling good as well as looking good!
If you’re looking for a more gentle hairspray, our fluxus touchable hairspray is perfect for you! Especially if you’re wanting some extra security on your natural curls, this hairspray works to lock in your curls without the added hairspray crunch.
