I always suggest sectioning with clips and applying any product for even distribution," she starts."Section your hair in halves or fours.Disperse the leave-in into the palm of your hands and emulsify the leave-in by rubbing your hands together.Then, evenly distribute the product on each section.After you apply the product, use a brush, comb, or your fingers to distribute the leave-in through out the hair.You can then use a microfiber towelto plop or scrunch your curls with the leave-in only, or apply your styling products on top of the leave-in, and then use your hand or a microfiber towel to scrunch or plop your hair.Let your hair air dry or use a diffuser." For consistent moisture, frizz-taming, and curl definition, she also advises combing the product through the hair for even application.

The Best Leave-In Conditioners for Curly Hair

If you have dry, brittle, frizzy, or damaged hair or hair that has been chemically treated, then you probably need extra moisture," says Valles. "Leave-in conditioners are particularly useful if you have dry, frizzy or damaged hair." Pros: protects from heat damage; expert-approved; free of parabens, gluten, sulfates, and silicones; cruelty-free Evenly distribute a capful or more to damp, freshly washed, conditioned and detangled hair. Spread a generous amount until you have good coverage. Make sure you scrunch the hair to encourage curl. To dry: either use a diffuser attachment to dry the hair or air dry and GO! To refresh curl dampen hair and apply a capful or more of Multicultural Curls ™ and repeat steps above. You can also use leave-in conditioner when using the scrunch or plop methods, both of which define and style curls while they're still damp. Giannetos says that using leave-in during this styling phase "helps to define the curls and add shine."

Don't believe it, try it!

After it's been shampooed, conditioned, and towel-dried, then apply the leave-in conditioner," she explains. "Usually you want to stay away from the scalp, because it produces oil on its own. Focus more on the ends." Best Leave-In Conditioner for Curl Definition: Miss Jessie's Multicultural Curls Enhancing Texturizing Hair Styling Cream By way of dealing with their customers' everyday curly hair care needs they stumbled upon a problem: there were simply no products on the market that catered to their clientele's hair type. "There wasn't a lot to work with, and finally we realized that we wouldn't get that perfect solution unless we created it ourselves." Recognizing a valuable opportunity to provide for this niche market, Titi and Miko, inspired by their grandmother's can-do attitude decided to perfect their own curly hair product creations and Miss Jessie's products were born. But a very important note: It’s not about finding the absolute best curl product for your 3c hair—it’s about finding the best product for your specific porosity. Porosity is your hair’s ability to absorb and retain moisture (like a sponge), based on its cuticle structure. And yup, this matters because:

Out of all the type-3 curls, your 3c hair is the most prone to dryness and breakage (woo! Congrats! You win no prizes! Sry!), which means the best products for your hair will be hella moisturizing and lightly defining, like leave-in conditioners, oils, gels, and curl creams. As for the exact combo of products to use? That’s going to require some trial and error. BUT, as a very basic starting point, if your 3c curls are high-porosity, damaged, and/or have a ton of 4a coils, your hair might benefit from the LOC method (i.e., layering on a leave-in conditioner, then an oil, then a cream) for max moisture. But if your 3c curls are low-porosity and fine, OR you just want more curl definition in general, try playing with a leave-in, curl cream, and a gel (don't worry; product recommendations are below). How do you apply products to 3c hair?

When it comes to application technique, Giannetos advises, "I recommend applying it only after you wash the hair and towel dry it enough where it's damp but not too wet. Depending on how long your hair is, I recommend applying between a dime or quarter amount and brushing it through the ends of your hair, avoiding the roots." And for curl definition, he suggests "a leave-in that contains lots of natural oils." You should also consider investing in a silk or satin hair wrap to preserve your curls, prevent breakage, and maximize hydration between wash days. Pros: works on all hair types; editor-approved; made with curls in mind; lightweight; gentle smell; protein-infused
