Pantene Beautiful Lengths Challenge- Natural Hair

Pantene Beautiful Lengths Challenge- Natural Hair

You may or may not know this, but I have naturally wavy/curly hair. Some days I straighten it and some days I let it go crazy. Either way, I try to treat my hair with care, which means only shampooing two to three times a week, and using only conditioner to clean my hair on the days in between. My other huge hair care secret is taking a daily multi-vitamin. I swear it makes my hair grow faster and stronger and let's not forget the amazing things it does for the rest of your body.

So here's my little guide on how I style my wavy hair.

Step 1: Clean your hair. If you're going to use shampoo, first put conditioner on your ends for protection and only shampoo your scalp. If you're going to use only conditioner, really work it into your scalp focusing on your hairline, temples, crown and neck.

Step 2: Lightly towel dry hair by grabbing different sections of your hair and carefully squeezing. Try not to squeeze up because this will ruffle the hair cuticle causing it to frizz.

Step 3: Use leave in conditioner to protect the hair before gently combing into place. How you set your hair when it's wet, is how it will dry.

Step 4: In the same way that you towel dried your hair, apply hair gel, focusing on not disturbing the waves/curls.

Step 5: Air dry or if you're in a rush, use a diffuser attachment on your hair dryer. Make sure the settings are on low for both speed and temperature.

Overall, it's pretty easy. Even if you don't have wavy/curly hair, you can create some movement by letting your hair dry naturally and the less you expose your hair to harsh treatment, the more healthy and beautiful it will be. Also, if you have bangs and want a more polished look, blow dry just your bangs using a paddle brush.
