Men’s Guide To Curly Hair<\/h1>\n

\"iStock_000064917755_Small\"At 18|8 Redmond, we see and work on a lot of different hairstyles. Long, short, straight, wavy, blonde, jet-black \u2013 you name it, we’ve worked on it. But there’s one type of hair we think often doesn’t get the credit it deserves: curly hair. For men with a rather unruly mane of curls, it can be discouraging to see most of the “in” fashions leaning towards undercuts, which inherently favor straight hair. Fear not, though: curly hair, when properly cared for, has a luster few other styles can match. The trick is to treat it right – and that’s what we’re here to help with.<\/p>\n

Moisture, Moisture, Moisture<\/h2>\n

As a man with curly hair, you’ll find one universal theme in caring for it. Just like the tropical plant you bought (and subsequently killed) in college, your hair needs a lot<\/em> of moisture. Curly hair tends to dry out, which sends it definitively into the over-frizzed zone. Counteract this by cutting down the frequency of your shampooing – you might even try the “no-poo,” which means letting go of shampoo altogether. Shampoo has a tendency to rob hair of moisture, which is the opposite of what you want. Conversely, step up your game with conditioner, which will imbue your locks with the hydration they naturally thirst for.<\/p>\n

Use the Right Products<\/h2>\n

If you try to force curly hair into a slick-backed, neat cut using product, you’ll end up with an ugly, blob-shaped mess. If you leave it to\u00a0its own devices, you’ll often end up with an impenetrable ball of frizz. To find a happy medium, seek out product that’s specialized for curly hair. Strong-hold, wax-based pomades are perfect for tight curls with a bit of shine, while things like salt sprays can help give a light hold without weighing things down. Pro tip? Style your hair when it’s sopping wet, then blot it dry with a microfiber towel – this is the perfect way to beat back the frizz.<\/p>\n
