Tips For Natural Curly Hair Blowout
To achieve a naturally curly hair blowout with minimal hair damage, here are some tried-and-tested tips and haircare steps to follow:
- Pre-poo
Although optional, it’s advisable to detangle and prep your hair first
before you jump into the shower. You can slather on a deep conditioner or a
lightweight oil to help with the process. First, use your fingers and then a
wide tooth comb or a detangling brush for detangling. Let the pre-poo sit for
half an hour before washing it off with water. Pre-poo prepares the hair for
the wash process. This extra step will make your routine much easier by making
the strands soft and tangle-free and adding extra nourishment to dry hair.
- Always start with clean hair.
The first and only step to achieving a good blowout on naturally curly hair is to get your locks washed and well-conditioned. This mainly assists in
ease of product application and detangling hair. Curly hair is much drier than
other hair types because of the lack of natural oils due to its curl pattern.
And blow drying can further dry the hair. Therefore, we suggest using the most
hydrating and nourishing (sulfate and paraben-free) shampoos and conditioners
for your curly hair. Rinse the shampoo with warm water to unlock the cuticle
and the conditioner with cold water to seal the moisture.
- Semi-dry your hair
Never try to apply products or blow dry soaking-wet strands. Instead,
wrap your hair into a super absorbent towel after washing to remove excess
water.

- Hydrate your locks
Once your hair is damp and free of knots, massage a super-hydrating
leave-in product through your hair and let it sit. Besides its hydrating
qualities, it also works as a heat protectant, which is crucial to use before
applying heat to the hair.
- Get the right tools.
Invest in a high-quality ionic blow dryer with a nozzle attachment and
multiple settings for both air and temperature. Curls work great on medium and
low settings. Regarding the power of the tool, 1400 watts is enough. Also, get
a good round brush (of a size that matches your curls) with soft bristles to
help you get the straightened hair look.
