How Often Do You Wash Your Hair? A Curly Hair Routine Schedule

Hello, this is april with the curl story, and i want to help you have beautiful curls every single day of the week. You should never have to have a bad hair day. Isn'T that what we all want, i just always dreaded waiting until that really bad hair day to wash and restyle my hair. So i wanted to share with you a sneak peek of my curly hair wash routine. That helps me to have great hair days every single day of the week, so i never have a really bad hair day. So that's been the most free experience to just understand what my hair and what my scalp needs as well, because our scalp is really unique. So, just as all of us need different routines for our face, knowing if you have dry skin or oily skin, it so much depends on your diet and the climate that you live in as well. I have some early videos where i used to refresh almost on a daily basis, and i found that that was mostly due to the types of products that i was using so and that's really a preference too. As to what type of products you would like to use, let's say because i've heard a lot. For example, if you're using a light, hold gel or maybe just a curl cream, that light hold, doesn't keep your curl clumps intact as much, and so you may need to refresh every day. For that reason, and you may not want to use a stronger hold product such as a stronghold, gel or hairspray because of different factors, you might find that you haven't found a hairspray that you liked yet or maybe a stronghold gel weighs down your hair too much. So there are so many different reasons why we all choose different products for our hair. So there's no one curly hair routine. That'S going to work for everybody's lifestyle and everybody's hair type. It really is customized, so my hope, with this channel is really to present different ideas and different options that you can try, as you learn more about your hair and customize your routine. So you can build your curl confidence and you can know with all of us and the community that you can certainly wear your curly hair every single day and for every occasion that there is casual super formal whatever it may be. Your curls are a part of you and they're always welcome and they're, always beautiful. So my schedule is that i wash my hair at least twice a week and i know for my scalp. It is happiest when i have a minimum of two wash days depending on. What'S going on, if i'm swimming or have some outdoor event, of course that's going to change and get modified, that's okay, but for the most part i have a weekend wash day and a midweek wash day, and i wanted to tell you about it just in case It might help give you some ideas of ways to schedule your own wash day based on your own daily routines and your own weekly routines. So my first wash day of the week is on sunday so, depending on what my family is doing, we might have a sunday brunch at home, or we might have an outing of some sort, but usually early afternoon is when i would do a relaxing wash day At home, so it doesn't take very long, but i don't like to be pressed for time. I don't want to be stressed, even though i know i'm successful at doing my hair now. I still have anxiety over it, especially for the work week for monday morning, and so i really like to start the week with a relaxing hair wash session, where i can take my time if i want to. But i know that i don't have some pressing event or i don't have to be finished in a certain amount of time and i'll. Tell you why i like the early afternoon wash i do my normal shampoo conditioning session and then once i am out of the shower, then i'll do my styling routine and i'll diffuse, my hair for only about 10 to 15 minutes, and during that time i know A lot of people do not like diffusing, but i do have some diffusing tips i'll leave a link to some videos below on that, but i do have some tricks that help to speed up the entire hair drying process. I do start out with at least 10 to 15 minutes of diffusing my hair and i love to use my ear pods so that i can just listen to some podcasts in the meantime or watch a show on my phone, because i can hear it. So if you don't have the earpods yet to be able to make it through your defusing session, i highly recommend that this is not sponsored. This is just real life tips that have worked for me. Then i'll do my root clipping and then air dry. The rest of the way my hair usually will get its gel cast formed in about an hour or so so i might leave my root clips in for an hour, maybe two hours. If it doesn't matter, and if my hair is still a little bit damp, then i might take the root clips out and then diffuse for five more minutes just to make sure those spots where my root clips were touching. My hair, because inside of those areas, could be a little bit damp, so i don't want them to flop once i take them out if, if my hair isn't completely dry, so if i do need to take those out for some reason, if i need to go Somewhere or lay down then i'll just i'll, take them out and then diffuse for another five minutes to make sure it's completely dry and then i'll have this lifted. Hair that stays that way for days i'll leave my hair in the gel cast that sunday afternoon, sleep in the gel cast, of course, with my hair protection and i'll leave a video on that too. My night routine and then my morning routines as well. Then i'll have amazing hair monday morning, which is such a relief, because mondays can be really stressful. You want to start the week out right. You want to have a great hair day and just feel refreshed and ready to go. You don't want to. At least i don't ever want to start a monday feeling behind, so this is one way to just feel put together and ready to go for the week. So i have different hairstyles that i like to do early on in the week, whether wearing my hair down or half up hairstyles. If i need to have my hair back, but at least to still show the great condition of my curls in those first few days, then usually by wednesday, is when my scalp wants to be taken care of so on wednesday night. So that would probably be late afternoon after the work day so that i still have time to do that diffusing and then have enough time to air dry for at least an hour or two with the root clips in then again i'll sleep with that gel cast. So then, thursday, friday saturday, i have great curls again to last the rest of the week. And yes, i do exercise with my curls as well, and i do have a video of hairstyles that won't crush your curls and and won't mess them up so that you can still refresh and restyle them for another day. Of course, if you need to completely wash your hair depending on what you're doing, then that's an option for you as well, but at least wanted to share with you some idea of how i can manage my hair routine and hopefully that helps you as well.
