These steps will allow your curls to last for days ⬇️⬇️

 

✨Quality raw hair will hold curls for days if done properly. 
The quality of your bundles is one of the biggest factors when you want heat styled curls to last. 

🌦Raw hair can hold curls without products throughout the day, but depending on weather, lifestyle, and personal preference, hairspray can help hold your curls even longer. Remember, too much product will weigh the hair down and will cause the curls to drop faster.


🧼 Long lasting heat styles start at the shampoo bowl (surprised this was the first tip?) Use a professional shampoo with the matching conditioner to get the most out of your curls.

Once clean, allow the hair to air dry. If you’re in a hurry and must blow dry, always use the lowest setting possible for minimal heat exposure, but if you ask us, we will always vote for air drying.


👆🏽Use a heat protectant and a light serum to set in the style.
This step is essential to maintaining your bundles and to keep them healthy for years of use. Heat protectants often contain ingredients that help to retain moisture in your hair. They can also make your hair more manageable and smooth, making it easier to achieve your desired style with less effort and potential damage. This is important because excessive heat can strip your hair of its natural moisture, leaving it dry and brittle.

➰ When using a hot tool, use medium-high heat and hold each section for 10-15 seconds. Release gently without snagging to keep the curl intact.

Allow the hair to cool down either in your hand for a few seconds or pin the curl with a clip so the hair will memorize the pattern as it cools. 


With patience and the right technique, your curls can last for DAYS when using quality raw hair.
