coconut oil for curly hair

I am also Indian and have very curly hair like yours..have you tried coconut oil?

frizzy hair solution
by: Anonymous

Go to an ethnic hair salon (Latin American, Dominican, Afro American, not Asian Indian - sorry our people just CAN NOT do hair). (I went to every hair salon - the best - in Bangalore and mumbai.. no one knew what I was talking about!)

Ask for a texturizer (it's like a light relaxer).
Have them put your hair in tight large rollers with setting lotion and dry your hair beneath dryers. Make sure they roll your hair tightly otherwise the roots will be frizzy and it won't come out well.

good luck!

Hope it Helps!

Hey! A lot of my friends have your same problem too, so hopefully what worked for them will work for you.

1st of all, if your hair is very rough I recommend deep conditioning it once a week w/ leave in conditioner or something stronger specifically for deep conditioning if possible (note: washing your hair less should promote your natural oils to increase to make your hair smoother + shiner)

Also, be careful to not pull your hair back into a tight bun or pony a lot because the constant tension of pulling your hair back can cause your hair line to recede back. Instead, try side pony tails or braids, or lower & looser buns and ponies.

Thirdly, give your hair layers. I would start with possibly (go online and find sites to test hair styles on your picture to see how it looks) 1 thin layer centered on your ears, 1 about an inch under your neck, and 2 or 3 near the ends of your hair (that's for moderately long hair).

Also, if you find issues with frizzy hair because your hair lacks moisture, I've found using hand/body lotion can smooth hair down - but be careful, too much and your hair looks greasy.

Same problem, and I found a solution

From your picture, I can tell you have the same problem I've had for years. I'm also Indian and I have curly (well, its more frizzy)hair and a heart shaped face. There are 3 important tips:

Layer your hair
Hair Product is a MUST!
And if you have thick hair, texturize!

I recently found out that my hair comes out much better when its short (3-4 inches long). When your hair is short, its much easier to care for and putting products in it is much easier. I basically wash my hair every morning, and put a dime size dollop of curling product (I don't know what products they have in the UK since I'm American, but I use TIGI's Catwalk Curl's Rock Amplifier) and apply evenly to the hair (kind of like when you're shampooing you're hair). Then simply scrunch up your hair, and viola! You have actual curls instead of a frizzy mess.

Also, on Saturdays, I treat my hair to coconut oil for a couple of hours. I liberally apply it to my hair and then wash it off. Its kind of messy, and gross, but you lose a lot of the frizz factor.

If you don't dig short hair, try shoulder length hair - but it MUST be cut in layers. Layers reduce the weight of the hair and define curls. Also if you have really thick hair like mine, ask the stylist to texturize your hair. They'll basically thin your hair a bit, which makes a world of difference.

Lastly, do not tie your hair in a tight ponytail! That was my staple hairstyle for over 6 years, and it made my hair frizzy as hell. It breaks the hair and just makes it look like a mess. If you don't like hair on your face, use a head band to keep hair away.

Indian hair, when done up is gorgeous; our hair is thick and has a natural luster. If its curly - that's even better! Just a 5 minute routine in the morning and your hair looks like its been styled. Hope this helps!

BEST ADVICE

Firstly do not brush your hair! That's the worst thing for sure, comb it if you have to when you are washing your hair and it has conditioner in it.
Second use Afro hair products - they are the best thing and are made from natural oils.
Don't towel dry or hairdryer it makes it rough
Because you live in India it makes your hair dryer because of the sun and the humidity deep condition if often.
