Up-cycle an Old T-shirt into a Scrunching Towel

A simple t-shirt can provide post-setting scrunching nirvana. Even gentler than a microfiber towel, t-shirts can give amazing definition to even the limpest of curls. xoxo- The Curl Girl - Tampa, Fl thecurlgirl.com curluniversity.com .com Florida's Curly Hair Expert Florida's Curly Hair Salon Ouidad, Devacurl, Jessicurl, and more

DevaCurl Set It Free

Spray on styled curls - on wet for extra hold, on dry to soften cast, tame frizz/flyaways. Some curlies like to use it as a secondary step in morning refreshing, adding after BB or OcMilk. Tip: Spray into hands and then scrunch into hair.  Smooth around hairline if necessary. Beeswax and Olive Oil make this Spray on taming and moisture locking lotion a tad heavy for some curls - if you feel it weighs down your curls, try using less before confirming it's not for you.  Remember, not all products work fabulously on everyone. One person's "changed my life" product, could be another person's "NEXT!!". The Curl Girl Tampa, Fl Florida's Curly Hair Expert Florida's First Curly Hair Salon

New To Embracing Your Curls?

Did you just finally  give up on the old ball and chain flat iron? Good!  Don't know where to start? Try a copy of The Curly Girl Handbook, by Lorraine Massey - the queen of DevaCurl and also check out my Youtube Channel Curl University to see any styling videos that might help you begin your journey.  Stop in to the salon and pick up the CG handbook and trial kits of Deva OR Ouidad (i like to mix and match between the 2 lines) or find Ouidad at Sephora if you don't have a salon near you.   After the jump, there is a generic product prescription in order of application that should yield great results on all (most) curls. If you are swavy, or ever feel like your scalp gets oily after 2 days or less, or just don't like the feel of a no-poo, replace the no-poo with Ouidad Sulfate Free Cleanser. See the product's respective website for application instructions.
