If you’re new to curly hair types, note that 4C kinky curly hair tends to have an extremely dense curly coil pattern that can be fragile and result in considerable shrinkage. When cared for appropriately, it lends itself to incredibly versatile hair styles!
Whether you’re just learning to style your 4C kinky curly hair or have been rocking it for years, check out our top tips on keeping it happy and healthy:
Curly hair is always looking for moisture, so it only makes sense that 4C kinky curly hair loves the absolute most. When your hair is properly moisturized, it will be much easier to style. Use products like Pardon My Fro's Moisturizing Hair Milk, which combine various butters and oils to create the best moisturizing product for your hair. And don’t underestimate how consistently drinking water throughout the day can help with hair health!
Because our ends are the farthest from our scalp, they tend to be particularly dry and weak. To take good care of them, we recommend getting regular trims, taking advantage of protective styling, and using extra moisturizer on them daily. Better yet, do it all.
It’s easy to forget your scalp, but remember that it’s truly the foundation of it all. Keeping your scalp healthy reduces irritation and promotes healthy hair. Check out Pardon My Fro's Hair & Scalp Oil, a gorgeous formula of almond, avocado, and jojoba oil that will be dropping in a few weeks. It’s the perfect first step in any 4C kinky hair care routine!
