Otherwise, take a damp towel, microwave it for few seconds and wrap your hair into it once you’ve conditioned your hair properly. The basic idea is to unwind those locks and eliminate the fuzzy ends.

3. Go for regular trimming sessions

Even before you begin cleaning your hair, make sure you have the right product with least chemical concentrations and a conditioner which suits your hair texture. Curly hair can be difficult to manage but if you keep it clean and conditioned, it’ll stay as smooth waves which will enhance your features and make you look radiant.

5. Use detangling sprays/creams

This is where you need to be careful because not every product out there can give the best results. In case you do find an efficient detangling spray, apply it onto your curls and allow it to work its magic on those knots. Slowly either using fingers or a proper wide tooth comb, untangle those frizzes and let your curls subside.
