Curly and coily hair is beautifully unique—and it thrives when cared for with moisture, gentle techniques, and protective habits. Here’s a simple weekly ritual to help your curls stay healthy, defined, and full of life.

1. Cleanse (1x per week)

Healthy curls start with a clean foundation—but without stripping moisture.

Double Cleanse:Start with a first shampoo to remove product buildup, followed by a second shampoo to cleanse the scalp.Try:

Mielle Pomegranate & Honey Moisturizing Shampoo – ideal for thick, curly textures. The rich lather gently clarifies while keeping hair soft.

Prefer a gentler cleanse?Try co-washing (conditioner-only wash) in between shampoos to maintain moisture and refresh your curls without over-cleansing.

Mielle Detangling Co-Wash is a great option for nourishing the hair and easing tangles.

2. Deep Condition (1x per week)

Hydration is key to definition and strength.Try:

Mielle Babassu & Mint Deep Conditioner – this moisture-protein balanced mask helps strengthen curls and restore softness.
Apply to towel-dried hair and leave in for at least 20 minutes with a shower cap for maximum absorption.

3. Detangle with Care

Only detangle when your hair is wet and saturated with conditioner.Use:

A wide-tooth comb or detangling brush designed for textured hair.
Work from the ends up to avoid breakage.

4. Midweek Curl Refresh

Bring your curls back to life between washes.Try:

Mielle Pomegranate & Honey Curl Refreshing Spray – great for redefining curls and adding light moisture without weighing hair down.
Mist, scrunch, and air dry or diffuse.

5. Scalp Care (1x per week)

A healthy scalp supports healthy hair growth.Try:

Massage a mix of rosemary and castor oil into your scalp weekly.
Leave on for a few hours or overnight before your next wash day.

6. Night-Time Protection

Protect your curls while you sleep:

Use a satin bonnet or silk pillowcase to reduce friction and retain moisture.
Pineapple or loosely braid your hair to prevent tangling.

Caring for curls takes consistency—but your routine should feel like self-care, not a chore. Want help building a ritual that works for you? Let’s chat at your next appointment.
