  • Follow a basic routine of cleansing, conditioning, treating specific concerns (e.g., split ends, dry scalp), and detangling to prevent breakage.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Consult with a stylist for customized style and product recommendations; simplicity in your routine can lead to healthier hair.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Regularly assess for product buildup and adjust your hair care practices accordingly to maintain hair health.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    What to think about before you build your Hair Care routine?<\/h2>\n

    Building a haircare routine is very similar to creating a skincare regime \u2013 you need to look at what you\u2019re working with, and where you want to be.<\/span><\/p>\n

    When it comes to your hair, this means you need to look at three specific things: your hair type, your hairstyle and your goals. Let\u2019s look at each of these areas more closely.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Your Hair Type<\/b><\/h3>\n

    You might not realise this, but there are four hair types, which each have their own subcategories. We\u2019ve listed them below so you can decide which one sounds most like <\/span>you<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Type 1a Hair<\/b> \u2013 this is hair that\u2019s super straight and fine. You might find it almost impossible to hold a curl and find that you\u2019re often wishing it had a little more volume.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Type 1b Hair<\/b> \u2013 this is slightly less straight and has a little more volume. You probably still find yourself reaching for hairspray a lot!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Type 1c Hair<\/b> \u2013 this is poker straight hair that others would kill for! This is hair that will not curl, no matter what.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Type 2a Hair<\/b> \u2013 you have a soft wave throughout your hair and often find yourself straightening it.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Type 2b Hair <\/b>\u2013 you\u2019re officially wavy and often like to play up that texture with salt sprays and dry shampoo.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Type 2c Hair <\/b>\u2013 you\u2019re as close to curls as can be, but still in wavy territory.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Type 3a Hair <\/b>\u2013 welcome to the curl gang! You officially have some bounce to your curls but they are more of a loose spring.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Type 3b Hair <\/b>\u2013 nice, round, bouncy curls that love moisture.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Type 3c Hair<\/b> \u2013 these curls can be plucked and stretched and will bounce straight back.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Type 4a Hair <\/b>\u2013 welcome to coily territory! Type 4 is the most common hair type for black women and people with afro hair.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Type 4b Hair<\/b> \u2013 this is a super springy z-shaped coil that can be deceptively long! You might often find yourself using products or styling techniques aimed at elongating the curl.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Type 4c Hair<\/b> \u2013 the most beautiful, most coily hair type of them all.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Your Hairstyle<\/b><\/h3>\n

    Once you know your hair type, it\u2019s time to consider how you like to wear it, and this is where you need to really get down to the details.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    It might sound great to rock curls every day, but if those curls require a good amount of maintenance on the daily, that might not work if you have to be at work for 8am!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    The same goes for wanting a poker straight bob if your natural Type 3c curls are desperate to be free.<\/span><\/p>\n

    That doesn\u2019t mean that any style is impossible; it just means taking time out to think.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Consider how much time you have and how much time you are willing to spend on your hair each day or week.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Consider your budget \u2013 perhaps a bi-monthly cut and style is best as opposed to extensive colour work that requires you come in as soon as re-growth starts to show.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Consider what you\u2019ll need to maintain the desired look at home; is it just about products or do you need new styling tools too?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
