For Afro hair
Afro hair is naturally drier and tends to dry out if washed too often. Ideally, Afro hair should only be washed every 1-2 weeks to preserve its natural oils. Choose a sulfate-free shampoo that cleanses gently without stripping moisture. Gently massage the shampoo onto your scalp and let it flow down the lengths of your hair. Follow with a rich conditioner or deep conditioning treatment to lock in moisture.
For curls
Curly hair tends to dry faster and develop frizz. Use a mild, sulfate-free shampoo to avoid stripping away too much of its natural oils. Before shampooing, gently brush your hair to remove any tangles. Rinse the shampoo thoroughly, then use a leave-in conditioner or a light conditioner to restore moisture. Curly hair benefits from gentle towel drying and air drying.
