Warm weather comes with blue skies and rippling waves. And for those of us with curly hair, our locks should ripple just as much! But, just like a sun burn, hair issues crop up. Have that one strand of hair that stays straight? Or that patch of hair that’s wrapped in frizz? Well, there are ways to calm the commotion and keep your wavy hair primped and polished for any adventure summer brings ashore.My summertime regimen is to wash and condition as normal with Redken Color Extend Shampoo and Conditioner. Then I apply mousse while scrunching up the waves. On days when I’m in a hurry, I will blow dry with a diffuser after applying heat protection spray. Most often, though, I just let it air dry. As you can see, this is not much different than everyone else.MORE FROM NATURALLY CURLY: Summer Tips for Healthy CurlsOnce my waves are dry; I will finger comb and fluff it a little — only a little because I do have the tendency to frizz out easily. Even though I have scrunched and moussed, I still find a few straight strands and they simply drive me nuts! This is where my Yogi Wand is useful. Within a few seconds, those strands are falling in line with the rest.Perhaps my most beloved summertime product is Agadir Argon Oil. Now this oil is no secret, but I’ve found that for beachy summer waves, this is a must have. I apply only a tiny amount underneath my hair first, very lightly of course, before moving to the top layer. The shine and smoothness of my waves really impressed me the first time I used it. In fact, I don’t think I can ever go without it again.MORE FROM NATURALLY CURLY: Look Hot While Staying CoolDepending on where I’m going, I may apply some light hairspray, but more often than not, I just let the waves fall. Yes, we wavies are very blessed to have some truly versatile hair. We can straighten it if we ever wanted to, or curl it up a lot. One thing that we can all agree on, however, is that we wouldn’t change it for the world.MORE FROM NATURALLY CURLY: DIY Curls for the Beach
