Hello Jiaddicts ! You know it as well as I do, autumn is the season of falling leaves đ, cozy sweaters, and... Unfortunately, it's also the season of puffy hair ! đ©
Between the cold, the humidity, and those wool sweaters that snag our curls, it's the perfect cocktail for our textured hair to rebel. Don't panic, I'm sharing my 5 essential tips for keeping your curls hydrated, defined, and frizz-free all fall long. Come on, say goodbye to hair puffiness!
1. Intense hydration and nutrition đ§: double dose for our curls!
My curls, it's simple: in the fall, they scream "Hydration, Hydration!" đââïž The temperatures drop, the air gets drier, and that's often when our wavy, curly, coily, or kinky hair starts to dry out. Result? Hello frizz and dull hair!
𧎠My advice: every wash should be a celebration for your curls! Use a detangling conditioner and a nourishing mask every week. What I love are products rich in shea butter , coconut oil or macadamia oil . These ingredients are your best allies to nourish your hair and protect it from external aggressions.
A little pro secret? Apply a pre-shampoo treatment for even more intense nourishment! Trust me, your hair will thank you.
2. Seal in hydration đ: stop swelling!
We don't stop there, my Jiaddicts ! If you moisturize your hair but don't seal in that moisture, it will evaporate as quickly as it arrived. Result: frizz and puffy hair! đĄ
đĄ Magic tip: After moisturizing your hair, apply a lightweight oil to seal in all that moisture. I use Jia Paris's Curl Activating Serum (pure bliss!), which contains ultra-hydrating oils and aloe vera. This lightweight serum will not only keep your curls nourished, but it will also protect them from the wind and cold.
3. Drying đš: no way you're going out with wet hair!
NEVER go outside with damp hair in the fall ! I know, it might be tempting to let it air dry, but that can be damaging. The moisture trapped in your hair will swell it, make it more brittle, and cause frizz.
đ My ritual? I dry my hair with a microfiber towel (or a cotton t-shirt 𧔠to avoid frizz), and I don't take it off until it's 100% dry! You can also use a diffuser on low heat if you're in a hurry.
And most importantly, don't sleep with wet hair ! Otherwise, prepare to wake up with a fluffy mane the next day. Not cool, right?
4. Protect hair from external aggressions đ§ïž: the cold won't affect my curls!
In autumn, the wind and cold are merciless for our hair. đ„¶ That's why it's essential to protect it well to prevent it from becoming dry and brittle. How? With a protective oil .
Once again, I recommend the Jia Paris Curl Activating Serum , perfect for forming a protective barrier around your hair. This nourishing serum keeps your curls well defined and prevents the cold from damaging them. A real armor for our hair, it's magic!
5. Choose clothes made of silky materials đ§Ł: bye-bye frizz!
We love wearing our warm wool sweaters , but our hair hates it! đ© Wool is pretty, but it catches on your curls, makes them rub together, and bam, frizz and knots are the result. A nightmare.
No ?
𧣠My fashion tip : opt for softer materials like cotton or satin. If you love wool like me, consider wearing a satin scarf under your scarf. This will protect your hair from friction, and your curls will stay intact.
Complete routine for perfect hair even in autumn đ
Come on my Jiaddicts, let's go over everything we've learned:
