Get Your Curls Under Control

Condition Yourself The irregular shape of ringlets tends to increase the friction among individual strands, so without regular conditioning you can get a lot of tangling and breakage. Use shampoos and conditioners made to define curls and also those that contain heat-activated moisturizers to reduce frizziness from blow drying.

Never Enough Conditioning

Curls can be difficult to untangle, particularly when wet (when hair is most delicate). Conditioner spray will help separate strands for easier combing. Apply the products with your hands and fingers to get out the larger tangles and knots and then use a wide-tooth comb.

Best Tools

If you think air-drying might give you a more polished, shiny look - you're wrong. Airdrying doesn't give the definition and bounce that curls need. Make an investment in a diffuser, which reduces the air flow to a gentle halo of heat, which also allows you to finger-shape curls for a more controlled look.

Shape It Up

If you're still unable to get your curls under control, maybe it's time for a new cut. A cut with long layers (no shorter than mouth) is usually the key to curly heads. A blunt cut cut result in a pyramid shape and doesn't allow the hair to really move.
