Understanding Your Natural Hair
Curly hair comes in a variety of textures, from loose waves to tight coils. The main types of curls are categorized as “wavy” (Type 2), “curly” (Type 3), and “coily” (Type 4), with each type further divided into subcategories like A, B, and C to denote the tightness and definition of the curl pattern; “straight” hair is considered Type 1. Each curl type has unique needs, and the key to healthy, vibrant curls is a regimen that enhances their natural beauty while keeping them hydrated and defined. Aveda’s Be Curly line is specifically designed to work with your natural curl pattern, helping to bring out the best in your locks while taming frizz and adding shine.

The Benefits of Aveda’s Be Curly Line
Aveda’s Be Curly collection is infused with natural, sustainably sourced ingredients that nourish and protect curls. Here’s what makes this line a must-have for curly-haired individuals:
- Wheat Protein and Organic Aloe: These key ingredients help enhance curl definition while providing hydration and elasticity.
- Tamanu Oil: Rich in essential fatty acids, this oil deeply nourishes hair and protects it from environmental stressors.
- Babassu Oil: A lightweight, non-greasy oil that provides deep moisture and enhances shine.
- Lemon, Bergamot, and Orange Essential Oils: Provide a refreshing, invigorating aroma while helping to balance scalp health.
Step-by-Step Guide to Unleashing Your Curls
Step 1: Start with a Gentle Cleanse
Begin your curl care routine with Aveda’s Be Curly Shampoo. This sulfate-free formula cleanses gently while locking in moisture, ensuring that your curls remain hydrated and bouncy. Infused with wheat protein and organic aloe, it expands when wet and retracts when dry to enhance your natural curl pattern. Massage a small amount into your scalp, work it through your hair, and rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water to avoid stripping essential oils.
Step 2: Deep Condition for Hydration
Hydration is key for well-defined curls! Use Be Curly Conditioner to soften and smooth your strands while reducing frizz. For extra moisture, use the Be Curly advanced intensive curl perfecting masque. Consider using it once or twice a week in replace of your conditioner for a deeper conditioning treatment. This will help to maintain optimal hydration and elasticity in your curls.
Step 3: Define with Primer
Create a foundation for your styling products by using Aveda’s Curl Perfecting Primer. This styling product helps protect from the drying sun and reduces frizz in high humidity for 24 hours. This is the perfect product to use for detangling and smoothing curls and coils as well.
Step 4: Style Your Curls
To give your curls extra definition and shine, apply Be Curly Curl Enhancer to damp hair. This lightweight cream intensifies your natural curl, controls frizz and adds shine without leaving a sticky residue. For more textured, curlier hair, use Be Curly’s coil definer gel. This gel offers more hold and protects tight curls from high humidity. Both products can be used the same way. Scrunch your hair gently and allow it to air dry or use a diffuser for added volume. For best results, section your hair and apply the product evenly, ensuring each curl is coated for maximum definition.
These products provide weightless hold, protect against humidity, and add long-lasting definition to your curls.
Step 5: Refresh and Revive
To extend your style, refresh your curls with Be Curly Co-wash on non-wash days. It gently cleanses, hydrates and reduces frizz to keep your hair on point for longer. This product removes build-up between wash days without stripping the hair of its curls and oils. Use to instantly refresh and reduce frizz.
Additional Tips for Healthy, Defined Curls
Sleep with Care
Preserve your curls overnight by using a silk or satin pillowcase. You can also protect your curls by sleeping with a loose pineapple-style ponytail or wearing a satin bonnet to reduce friction and frizz.
Hydrate your Hair
To maintain your Healthy curls, make sure they are hydrated. Neroli Salon & Spa offers an Add-On Intensive Hydrating Refresh Treatment. Powered by Aveda’s Nutriplenish, the treatment deeply moisturizes and revives dull, dry hair. It also provides five times more hydration and up to two times more shine after one service. Add this on to your next hair service today.
Avoid Heat Styling When Possible
Avoiding heat styling on curly hair is important because it can significantly damage the hair shaft, leading to dryness, frizz, loss of curl definition, and breakage, as curly hair is naturally more fragile and prone to moisture loss when exposed to excessive heat from styling tools like blow dryers and flat irons; essentially, heat can disrupt the natural bonds that hold curls in place, making them loose and uneven.
Regular Trims for Healthy Ends
Regular haircuts are crucial for curly hair because they help manage split ends which can easily form in curly hair, leading to breakage and preventing your curls from looking defined and healthy; a good curly cut also takes into account the natural curl pattern to enhance shape and minimize frizz, making styling easier and more manageable. Visit Neroli Salon & Spa regularly for trims to keep your curls looking fresh and healthy.
