Naturally
Some types of curls take shape more easily, without the need to spend money buying expensive styling creams.
With your hair washed and moisturized, you just need to βcrushβ your hair so that it has a curl. Lower your head and throw all the hair down. Use a paper towel to knead and dry the hair at the same time. Do this procedure until you feel that the wires are damp, without being soaked. Return the strands to normal, wait for it to dry naturally for a while and repeat the procedure if it has not turned out the way you would like.

Another natural way to learn how to curl your hair is using flaxseed gel. Flaxseed gel is made at home and is inexpensive. Simply boil the flaxseeds in enough water to cover. After boiling, turn off the heat and strain. Expect to cool down that will form a gel. The gel must be kept in the refrigerator and the same flaxseed can be boiled twice with water, the gel effect is the same.
With the cold gel, just use it to knead the wires as we taught above. The gel hydrates the hair, facilitates styling and ensures longer-lasting curls.
Definitely
While the progressive brush smoothes the strands, the perm has the function of leaving the hair curly for longer. Contrary to what the name suggests, the perm only lasts for 3 months and may even last less if you wash your hair too often or go to the pool daily.
It is recommended to do this procedure in a beauty salon, but you can also try it at home. To learn how to permanently curl your hair at home, you need to choose a quality permanent product. With relaxation it is possible to do. Let's go step by step:
- Wash your hair well with shampoo. Do not use conditioner.

With Cream
The simplest way to learn how to curl your hair is using cream. You can use a hair moisturizer or a leave-in cream with curl-active action.
You can just knead it as we have already taught here or the famous βdedolissβ. To do the dedoliss you need to have wet hair and apply a lot of cream, enough to feel the texture of the cream on your hair.
Wrap a small section of hair around your index finger like a ribbon. Do this until you reach the root. Squeeze a little and release carefully so you don't break up. After drying your hair you can loosen the curls with your fingers.

with flat iron
Learning how to curl your hair with a flat iron is very useful for those with straight or type 2 curly hair.
The technique consists of wrapping the lock of hair in the flat iron, closing it and holding it for a few seconds. Then just carefully let go and apply hairspray to ensure the curls will last as long as you need them to.

To use, just dilute in hot water to form a creminho. Wait for it to cool down and apply it to your locks, then you can make the texture you want. Gelatin works like a gel and leaves curls active for longer.
