Curly and Frizzy Hair: Solutions by Modesta Cassinello

In the fascinating world of beauty, every hair type—straight, wavy, or curly—has its own unique story and challenges. If you're blessed with curly hair, you know that the natural charm of curls sometimes comes with battling dryness and frizz . But don't worry, we're here to offer not only effective solutions, but also a special recommendation: Modesta Cassinello products.

Challenges of frizzy curly hair

Curly hair is usually fine and somewhat more fragile , and since the curl causes light to scatter and reflect less well, it makes it look dull, giving a feeling of being unkempt.

Generally, curly hair has fewer sebaceous glands, is less active, and secretes less oil, which contributes to dryness of the scalp and hair, making it difficult to comb and even prone to breakage . This means that washing this type of hair is more frequent, but this isn't always the case. Sometimes the scalp is oily and requires frequent washing.

The particular practice of spacing out washes to reduce dryness, caused by shampoos or by difficulty managing hair after washing, can lead to residue buildup on the hair shaft and scalp irritation and inflammation.

In curly hair with a dry scalp, the cuticle is more compromised due to the lack of protection that lipids offer, causing the hair to absorb moisture in humid climates, causing excess volume and frizz.

From constantly battling humidity to maintaining defined curls and a balanced scalp, we know that every day can be a new chapter in this hair journey.

Effective solutions

1. Deep hydration:

The key to controlling frizz begins with proper hydration and nutrition, both to restore the cuticle as much as possible and to protect it from the external factors that impact our hair daily.

Just reading this sentence might make you think about the need to use a conditioner or mask after washing, but first , we suggest starting with a good cleansing . Effective and gentle cleansing, with an emphasis on the use of appropriate shampoos and moisturizing products such as pre-shampoos, is key.

Choosing a good shampoo is an essential step in any hair care routine, but it's even more important for curly hair, whether the scalp is dry or oily, as both can accumulate oily residue, cellulite, and pollution if washed infrequently. These residues must be removed to avoid irritation or itching.

At Modesta Cassinello, we recommend that you always take the time to observe your scalp and offer it the cosmetics it needs.

2. Specific products for curls:

Modesta Cassinello products are also designed for curly hair, and their innovative and enriching formulas meet your needs.

3. Gentle drying:

When drying your hair to minimize frizz, we recommend doing so gently and continuing with air-drying methods or a gentle diffuser technique, thus maintaining the texture of your curls without the dreaded frizz.

Recommendations:

1. Dry your hair gently with a soft cotton or microfiber towel . At Modesta Cassinello, we recommend our turban towel.
2. If you use a hairdryer, adjust the temperature as your hair dries. Using a diffuser to distribute the air evenly can help minimize frizz.
3. If you choose to let your hair air dry, we recommend applying a finishing product such as a leave-in acidifying spray or styling cream. This will leave your hair looking more shapely and protected.
4. At bedtime , using a silk pillowcase or cap to reduce friction can make a difference in your hair.

4. Keep fit:

Maintaining shape is important for curly hair, so a regular trim can eliminate dry areas and improve frizz.

5. Intensive treatments:

1. Occasionally, we recommend performing more intensive mask treatments more frequently to restore fiber.
2. UV radiation protection . All hair types look better if protected from UV radiation exposure.

Best products for frizzy curly hair

Special recommendation: Modesta Cassinello for defined and sensual curls

When it comes to finding the best products for curly and frizzy hair, there are specialized solutions within the Modesta Cassinello product range. The brand captures the essence of scalp health and natural beauty in each of its formulas, providing effective solutions and amazing results.

• H02 Repairing Shampoo . Medium-detergent shampoo for effective and gentle cleansing of dry scalps. This shampoo provides well-being to the scalp and softness to curly hair. It gently cleanses the hair, preventing excessive dehydration and tangling or breakage during washing.
  
  Verified Review: "I love this shampoo, I have curly hair and therefore I dry it quite often, and it works great for me. It doesn't weigh down hair and stays clean much longer than other shampoos, so I can go several days without having to wash it again and it stays super clean. Plus, it's gentler than conventional shampoos and made with natural ingredients... What more could you ask for? It's a shame that the scent can't be transmitted, it's one of the things I like the most 🤩."
  
  If your scalp is oily, you take too long to wash, or you use a lot of products that can leave residue that can cause irritation in the long run, you can use H07 Sea Salt Shampoo and combine it with H02 Repairing Shampoo.
  
  Remember at this point that for proper washing, we recommend emulsifying shampoos in the palm of your wet hand and applying them to wet hair roots. This technique allows for even distribution and facilitates thorough rinsing.
• After washing, it's important to address dryness and frizz, making it essential to condition your hair with conditioners and masks. We recommend using cosmetics with a high percentage of natural ingredients that define and soften your curls from root to tip, without weighing them down or making them feel heavy. It's important to leave your hair in the shower for the recommended amount of time and brush it with the special Fingerbrush for curly hair before removing the conditioner or mask.
  
  When it comes to conditioning, if your hair is fine or thin, be sure to try the H04 Conditioner . On the other hand, if your hair is normal or thick and needs more nutrients, our recommendation would be the H06 Solid Conditioner .
• And out of the shower, once your hair is towel-dried, we recommend using the H08 Leave-in Conditioner Spray , an extra softness, protection and shine for your hair and highly recommended to minimize frizz. Don't forget to use the H08 Leave-in Conditioner Spray, which also protects against frizz.
• H09 Mask is a cosmetic product loaded with active ingredients with beneficial properties for hair. You can use it three times during your hair care routine: as a pre-shampoo treatment , as a mask before applying conditioner, and as a leave-in cream. The latter is recommended for curly hair, as it achieves defined, more hydrated, and frizz-free curls. H10 Sublime Oil can also be used as a pre-shampoo treatment. It softens, protects, and adds shine.
