Step 1: Cleanse with Xara Haircare Curl Shampoo
A proper cleanse is essential for fresh, well-defined curls. Follow these steps for the best results:
-
Thoroughly wet your hair with warm water to open up the hair cuticle and remove any surface buildup.
-
Apply a generous amount of Xara Haircare Curl Shampoo to your scalp and massage in circular motions using your fingertips. This stimulates the scalp and removes dirt, oils, and product buildup.
-
Rinse and repeat. A second shampoo ensures your scalp and hair are completely clean. If your hair is extra dirty or has heavy buildup, you can go in with a third shampoo for a deep cleanse.
-
Rinse thoroughly with warm water until all the shampoo is washed out.
Step 2: Condition with Xara Haircare Curl Conditioner
Conditioning is crucial for hydration and curl formation.
-
Towel dry your hair before conditioning. This prevents excess water from diluting the conditioner, allowing it to work effectively. Use a soft cotton towel—remove as much water as possible.
-
Apply Xara Haircare Curl Conditioner from mid-length to ends, ensuring even distribution.
-
Leave it in for a few minutes to allow your hair to absorb the moisture. During this time, you can use your fingers or a wide-tooth comb to gently detangle.
-
Rinse thoroughly with cool water to help seal the hair cuticle and lock in hydration.
Step 3: Prep with Xara Haircare Curl Spray
Once your hair is conditioned and rinsed, it's time to apply the curl spray to enhance definition.
-
Gently towel dry your hair again (without rubbing) to remove excess water.
-
Evenly spritz Xara Haircare Curl Spray throughout your hair, ensuring you cover every section. Be careful not to disrupt the natural curl pattern while applying.
-
Use your hands to scrunch the product in, encouraging curl formation.
Step 4: Define with Xara Haircare Leave-In Curl Cream
The curl cream adds moisture, definition, and hold to your curls.
-
Scoop out a small amount of Xara Haircare Leave-In Curl Cream.
-
Distribute the product by scrunching it into your hair from ends to mid-lengths.
-
For more defined curls, work in sections. Take small sections of hair and apply a little extra curl cream to each, using your fingers to twirl the hair and enhance definition.
Step 5: Dry with a Diffuser
Diffusing helps lock in curl shape, minimize frizz, and add volume.
-
Set your diffuser to medium speed and maximum heat.
-
Begin with the hover method: Hold the diffuser near your hair without touching it. This helps set the curls without disrupting their shape.
-
Once your hair is about 90% dry, flip your head upside down. Place sections of your hair into the diffuser and gently lift it towards your scalp, letting the curls dry in their natural formation.
-
To add extra volume at the roots, place the diffuser at the roots and continue drying until completely dry.
Step 6: Finish with Xara Haircare Argan Oil
Once your hair is fully dry and has formed a cast, it’s time to soften and separate the curls for a more natural finish.
-
Apply a few drops of Xara Haircare Argan Oil to your hands.
-
Gently scrunch your curls to break the cast, making them softer and more touchable.
-
Separate curls with your fingers for added definition and shine.
Additional Tip: Use the leave in curl cream to touch up your hair daily. It is moisturising and nourishing for your hair without weighing it down. This can help tame frizz and re-define curls.
By following this routine with Xara Haircare Curl Shampoo, Curl Conditioner, Curl Spray, and Leave-In Curl Cream, you’ll achieve beautifully defined, frizz-free curls with volume and bounce. The final touch of Argan Oil enhances shine and gives your curls a polished, hydrated finish.
