Dealing with damaged curls can be disheartening, but understanding the root causes can make a big difference. Discover why your curls might be struggling and learn how to bring them back to life.

Why Are Your Curls Damaged?

  • Heat Styling: Frequent use of heat tools like flat irons, curling irons and blow dryers can weaken your hair structure, leading to dryness and breakage.
  • Chemical Treatments: Treatments such as colouring or perming can strip your hair of its natural moisture, damaging the cuticle layer. 
  • Over-Washing: Washing your hair too often, especially with harsh shampoos, removes the natural oils that keep your curls hydrated.
  • Mechanical Damage: Rough handling, aggressive brushing and using the wrong hair accessories can cause breakage and split ends.
  • Environmental Factors: Sun, wind and pollution exposure can dry out your curls and weaken them over time.
  • Improper Product Use: Products containing sulfates, silicones or alcohol can create buildup and block moisture from reaching your hair.

How to Revive Your Damaged Curls? 

  • Gentle Cleansing: Use sulfate-free shampoos to clean without stripping natural oils. Co-washing can also help maintain moisture.
  • Deep Conditioning: Add deep conditioning masks to your routine for hydration and frizz reduction. Weekly treatments with heat can enhance absorption and repair.
  • Protein and Moisture Balance: Balance protein and moisture to restore strength and elasticity. Use protein treatments if your curls feel mushy or overly soft.
  • Protective Styling: Use protective styles and avoid excessive heat to minimise further damage. Satin scarves and pillowcases can prevent friction and breakage while you sleep.
  • Regular Maintenance: Regular trims to remove split ends and consistent care will keep your curls healthy.

How Specific Products Help Your Damaged Curls

Understanding your hair’s specific problems is important before selecting any products. Here’s why these products are the best for your damaged curls: 

  • Oil: Oils like argan or coconut oil provide essential hydration and seal the hair cuticle, preventing moisture loss and adding shine. They also help to reduce frizz and protect the hair from environmental damage.
  • Intense Bond Repair Hair Mask: This mask targets and repairs the internal structure of the hair, strengthening bonds that may have been broken by chemical treatments or heat styling. It helps to restore the hair’s integrity and resilience.
  • Intense Hydrating Hair Mask: Deeply moisturises and replenishes dry, damaged hair, reducing frizz and making curls more manageable. Ingredients like shea butter and aloe vera help to lock in moisture and smooth the hair cuticle.
  • Co-Wash: A co-wash or cleansing conditioner, gently cleanses the hair without stripping of the natural oils. It helps maintain moisture balance, making curls soft and defined.
  • Cream: Styling creams provide moisture and definition to curls. They often contain nourishing ingredients that help to repair and protect the hair while enhancing its natural texture.
