Unfamiliar with these methods, or new to styling curly hair? Never fear— Jamila Powell, owner of curly haircare brand Naturally Drenched, has you covered. Hi, hello, and welcome to your little corner of the internet devoted to all things 3c hair (wow, so warm and happy here).

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."As far as how much product to use, start with a modest amount so that you don't over-apply, and then work your way up if you feel like you need more moisture.

There are a billion (zillion? Trillion?) application methods when it comes to curl products, but in general, people with 3c hair tend to have the best result with combing or finger-raking conditioners and leave-ins through their damp hair, then applying their stylers with praying hands, scrunching, shingling, and/or plopping.

Once you've determined your hair type and goals, though, there remain a few universals to keep in mind during your leave-in conditioner shopping process.You should apply your leave-in conditioner after washing your hair and before styling, try not to use too much to avoid oily hair," he advises. It's better to start small and progressively apply more than to apply too much and have to re-wash. "You can tell when you have applied too much leave-in when you try to apply heat to the hair, and see that the texture feels stiff and slightly greasy. The hair could also smoke during blow drying at this stage, which is another reason why it is important to avoid applying too much."

What does it mean to have 3c 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."

The Curl Collections

MultiCultural Curls is the definition of a Miss Jessie's original, as this styling lotion is the ultimate solution for styling and managing multi-textured curls. The inspiration for Miss Jessie's MultiCultural Curls derives from the childhood experiences of Miss Jessie's Co-founder's, Miko and Titi. Before they were even burgeoning young hairstylists and curl experts, Miko and Titi were a pair of bi-racial babies, in active pursuit of a product that could cater to their unique amalgam of curly textures. Some products were too heavy, oversaturating curls with oils and weighing them down. Other products were just too light. In the classic Miss Jessie's fashion, the Branch sisters discovered a solution to this problem, by coming up with an effective product capable of striking the right balance of moisture and hold- thus MultiCultural Curls was born. MultiCultural Curls gives curls uniformity throughout varying curl patterns, while simultaneously fighting frizz, and adding the right touch of super soft hold. Enriched with all-natural ingredients, including safflower oil and olive oil, MultiCultural Curls is a wash n' go styling lotion, that will give you a new appreciation for your diverse heritage, and the beautiful curls that come with it. Personally, I use the scrunch method, and tend to opt for a leave-in with a bit of hold so that I don't have to layer too many products. What to Look For in a Leave-In Conditioner for Curly Hair 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.

When it comes to ingredients, though, there are a few universals: "Any ingredients that you recognize such as coconut oil, avocado oil, shea butter, and jojoba oil will be key ingredients," Valles says. On the other hand, she advises users to "stay away from any that include alcohol or silicones." The Best Leave-In Conditioners The longer your hair is, I would say to use two quarter-sized pumps," says Valles. "If you have shorter hair, use a dime-sized pump. Less is more with leave-in conditioner."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. There are so many hair products out there, from hair oils to hair glosses to hair masks, that it can be difficult to understand when and how to apply each product properly. In the case of leave-in conditioner, Valles says that you can use your go-to "every time you wash your hair." Powell, meanwhile, explains, "The best ingredients to look for in a leave-in conditioner for curly hair are ingredients with moisture balancing properties that don't overdo it and create moisture overload. Some great ingredients are aloe vera, Kalahari Melon Seed Oil, Rosemary Extract, and fruits with Alpha Hydroxy Acid."
