2. Moisturize Your Curls
Curls are prone to dryness because of their coily structure. On top of that, extreme climatic conditions can affect your curl health. Tame your frizzy curls with a dose of hydration. Apply ThriveCo Leave-in Cream on your tresses, starting from the mid-length towards the end, focusing on the tips as the tip of your hair is more prone to dryness and damage.
3. Switch Your Haircare Products
Switching your haircare products in summer is essential to address the unique curl concerns that spring up with the change in the climate. In summer, your thirsty curls need hydration. Instead of applying heavy cream-based moisturizers, switch to a lightweight, hydrating products such as Curlvana Curl Care range that locks in the moisture, prevents frizz and dryness. Look for ingredients such as shea butter, coconut oil, and argan oil in your curly hair products, as these ingredients can effectively deal with your frizzy curls without weighing them down.

4. Shampoo Less Frequently
Shampooing frequently can rob your curls of their natural oils, making your hair prone to frizz. But again, if you're using Curlvana Fortifying Curl Cleanse, you can use it regularly, without any worry.
You can choose to skip the shampoo and co-wash your curls with the
Curl Shine Gentle Conditioner from Curlvana to drive away frizz, give definition to curls, making them look soft and bouncy.
5. Sun Protect Your Curls
Just like your skin, the hair also needs sun protection. Use haircare products that shield your curls from the harmful sun rays while going out in the sun. Exposure to sun rays can damage your curls, making them dry and frizzy. Using a hair spray or a hair mist with a UV filter before going out in the sun helps to preserve the natural colour, texture and appearance of your dry curly hair.
6. Air Dry Your Curls
Experts advise against blow drying your curls, especially in summer when your curls are already dehydrated. Thanks to the hot-humid climate! Air drying your curls helps preserve the natural structure of the curls and prevents them from breaking off and over-drying. Keep your styling tools away and rock more natural, carefree hairstyles this summer.
7. Keep Your Body Hydrated
To maintain long, luscious curls, you need to offer hydration from outside and from within too. Drink 10-12 litres of water to keep your body hydrated. A healthy body grows hydrated and well-nourished curls. Include lots of fresh fruits, juices, and veggies in your diet. Keep your body hydrated and cool during summer; it will automatically reflect on your skin and hair.
8. Treat Your Curls Gently
Curls and combs don't go hand-in-hand. Brushing your curls can damage the structure of your curls, resulting in hair breakage. Apply Curlvana Leave-in Conditioner and gently detangle your curls using your fingertips. Use a wide-toothed comb, and work at the ends, making your way towards the roots. Remember, you have to be very patient with your curls, or you may end up damaging your curls.
9. Trim The Ends Regularly
The tip of your hair is prone to dryness as the natural oils from the scalp find it hard to make their way to the tip of the curls. Regular trims add life, structure, volume and bounce to your kinky curls.
10. Enhance Curl Structure With Cool Hair Styles
Embrace your curly hair by indulging in some cool summer-inspired hairstyles. Try out messy buns, ponytails, twists, and twirls for trendy, chic looks. The best part is that these hairstyles are hassle-free and help enhance the structure and definition of your curls. Use Curlvana Curl-Defining Styling Gel before styling your hair to get phenomenally defined ringlets you have longed for.
