The Curly Girl Method (CGM) introduced by Lorraine Massey can be a life changer for
many curlies. RIZVAN follows this method plus more. CGM involves avoiding brushes,
heat-styling tools, regular use of shampoos, and any products that contain waxes,
drying alcohol, sulfates, or silicones.
This means avoiding practically anything that
will dry out, cause build-up, or risk damaging your hair in any way.
Curly hair is naturally very dry so the regular shampoo and conditioner that works
fine with people with straight hair just does not work with curly hair. To maintain
hair health and keep your curls looking bouncy and fresh you need to follow these
steps:
1. Using a Co-Wash
Although Rizvan shampoo is very gentle, it is recommended to use a Co-wash primarily and then shampoo once a month, or if you really need to use it more often, alternate between co-washing and shampooing. What is a Co-wash you ask? A co-wash is a cleansing conditioner you can use daily or weekly, depending on your needs. It has cleansing properties which cleanses the scalp without depriving your lengths of moisture, maintaining some of the hair’s natural oils.
2. Only use shampoo to remove excess build-up
Ideally once a month should be sufficient, or as mentioned above, if only co-washing isn’t cutting it, alternate washes with shampoo. The reason for this is that shampoo may create that lovely lather you like but also suck out your hair’s natural oils making it dry. This is especially true for most shampoos on the market, as it contains sulfates that work as a detergent, drying your hair out even more. Rizvan Hair Extravagance clarifying shampoo is curly girl approved so it does not have any sulfates, silicones or other nasties making it incredibly gentle. This is also known as a low-poo.
3. Use a deeply hydrating conditioner
RIZVAN Hair Extravagance Hydrating Conditioner does exactly that! This magical, creamy conditioner will smooth down your hair and form a protective barrier against the humid environment. It willprovide moisture to your curls, make them bouncy again and leave them healthy. Like all our hair products, it is free from all silicones, sulfates, parabens and drying alcohols.
4. Deep condition weekly
This is especially important when you’ve just startedyour curly hair journey since your curls need maximum hydration. It is also veryimportant if you are focusing on growing curly hair faster. Rizvan Repair DeepConditioning Hair Mask is an all-natural, multi-tasking hair mask with 19 of themost powerful natural extracts known for hair and scalp health to melt into drystrands to hydrate, nourish and tame frizz, for beautiful shiny silky-soft hair and tosoothe and cleanse the scalp.
5. Use a Leave-in conditioner
After you’re done with your shower and your hair is still wet, smooth on our Leave-In-Conditioner to keep your curls hydrated until next time you wash it and keep it free from tangles and frizz.
6. Use a curling custard or gel?
This is the last stage of your routine. Traditionally gel has a reputation for drying out hair, leaving it crispy and ramen like.
However, gel has a very important role in the CGM. Using the right gel gives more
definition, more hold and less fluff. And that’s what we want, right?
In addition, gel
ensures that your curls retain the moisture better and are therefore better hydra-
ted. Rizvan Rose Curling Custard is incredibly moisturising and works perfectly
followed by the Orange Blossom gel.
These two products prevent hair from having
that dry, spaghetti, stringy look that a hard hold gel can give when used on its own.
If your hair is high porosity and coarse and you need a harder holding gel to really
control that stubborn frizz you can add that as a final step on top. When hair is
100% dry, scrunch out the crunch to reveal beautiful, soft bouncy curls.
7. Protect your curls at night
You toss & turn at night and wake up next morning to find it’s made your curls messy, frizzy & they’ve lost definition. If you want to keep your curls beautiful, you need to protect your curls at night. Our satin bonnets are extra large so won’t crush your curls, they also retain moisture to keep your curls looking fresh!
8. Avoid heat as much as possible
Heat isn’t great for hair to begin with but for curly hair it can be disastrous. The more you avoid, the better it is for your curl’s health. It is best to let your hair air dry, however, if you do have to use your hair dryer, do it with a diffuser on cold air mode. This will reduce frizz.
9. Don’t brush your hair dry
This is a big no-no. Brushing hair dry causes breaka-ge which results in more damaged, frizzy hair. The only time you can brush or comb your hair after applying a conditioner or leave-in conditioner and only with a wide tooth comb or Denman brush to create clumps for definition, NOT to detangle hair. Your hair is after applying fingers, VERY gently with lots of conditioner.
10. Refresh hair between washes
When hair starts to look a bit frizzy or scra-ggly between washes, you can refresh your hair by spraying it with a bit of water and smoothing on a little more of the leave-in conditioner, and/or curling custard or gel. Let it air dry and scrunch out the crunch when 100% dry.
11. Keep hydrated
