Introduction

‍In a previous blog, we went deep into how unique curls and curl patterns are and how to care for your curls. In this article we’re going to explain more about how to take your curly hair journey even further. At Love Hair, we believe that mastering curls goes beyond the basics—it’s about understanding your hair's specific needs and equipping you with the right hair care routine to ensure long-lasting, healthy curly hairstyles. And we are a leading curly hair salon (Singapore).

Customised curl care: Understanding curly hairstyles

Every curl pattern is different, and so is the care it requires. While our previous blog focused on the techniques of cutting and styling curls, this post goes deeper into what your curls need to stay healthy, hydrated and beautiful.

Daily care for different curl types:

• Wavy hair: Usually work best with lightweight products like curl creams or mousses to avoid weighing down your waves. Refresh with a leave-in conditioner to maintain definition and prevent frizz.
• Curly hair: Hydration is key! Use with a water-based leave-in conditioner, followed by a curl-enhancing cream or gel. Diffuse on low heat to set your curls.
• Coily hair: We find the LOC method best (Leave-in, Oil, Cream) for keeping coily hair moisturised. Spritz with water and oil on non-wash days to revive your coils.

Protecting your curly hairstyles in Singapore’s humidity:

• Seal in moisture: Use a curl cream or gel to create a barrier that locks in moisture and repels humid air.
• Anti-humidity products: Apply anti-frizz serums or sprays designed to block humidity and keep your curls defined.
• Minimise touching: Once styled, avoid touching your hair to prevent frizz caused by extra manipulation.

Common mistakes with curly hairstyles:

• Over-washing: Limit washes to 2-3 times a week to maintain your hair's natural oils. Use sulphate-free, curl-friendly products.
• Skipping deep conditioning: Curly hair needs regular moisture, so deep condition weekly to prevent dryness and breakage.
• Brushing dry hair: Detangle only when wet with a wide-tooth comb or your fingers to avoid frizz and damage.

Curly hair products: Beyond the cut

At Love Hair, as a curly hair friendly salon, we offer more than just the perfect cut for your curls. Curly hair often needs additional moisture and nourishment, which is why we provide specialised treatments tailored to curly hairstyles during a curly hair appointment.

Moisture masks and curl-specific treatments

Curly hairstyles often need an extra moisture boost and that’s where our specialised moisture masks come in. Designed to revive dry, lifeless curls, these treatments deeply hydrate and nourish, ensuring your curls stay soft, bouncy, and defined. Our moisture masks are packed with ingredients that penetrate the hair shaft, locking in hydration while reducing frizz. Whether you're dealing with over-processed hair or just battling Singapore’s humidity, a moisture mask treatment helps restore your curls’ natural vitality, leaving them healthier and easier to manage.

Natural products for curly hair health

At Love Hair, we’re committed to using eco-conscious, hair-friendly products that support both your hair and the planet. Our favourites include the Kevin Murphy curl range and the IN curl cream and gel, which are specifically formulated to enhance curl definition without harmful chemicals. These products are made with natural ingredients like shea butter, baobab seed oil, and other botanical extracts that nourish and hydrate your curls, all while being sulfate-free, paraben-free and cruelty-free.

Why timing matters: Curly hair appointment

‍Unlike straight hair, curly hair needs extra attention and time to ensure the best results. When you book a curly hair appointment we schedule longer appointment slots so your stylist has the necessary time to revive and style your hair.

What you can expect during your curly hair appointment at Love Hair:

1. Consultation: We begin with an in-depth consultation to understand your curl pattern, lifestyle and hair goals. This helps us recommend the best approach for your cut, colour, and care.
2. Curl-friendly cut: Whether you prefer a wet or dry cut, our stylists will carefully work with your curls’ natural texture, ensuring each curl falls perfectly into place. We use techniques that preserve curl definition while creating a shape that flatters your face and enhances your natural volume.
3. Styling tips: After your cut, we’ll apply the appropriate curl-friendly products, such as curl creams or gels, to enhance definition and hydration.
4. Learn the methods: We finish with a styling session where we’ll offer personalised tips on how to maintain your curls at home, whether through air-drying or diffusing.

This step-by-step process ensures that every aspect of your curly hair appointment is tailored to your curls, giving you the best results possible.
