Well curlys … with just a couple of months to go until Christmas, the countdown has officially begun! Here at Curly By Nature we know all too well what this time of the year means for our manes. If you’ve noticed that your coils have become more brittle within the last couple of weeks, you’re not alone. The drier air can often strip our hair of moisture, so it’s important to hydrate your kinks more during the winter in order to protect them from the chill.
There are a range of natural additions that you can make to your haircare routine to boost the moisture in your curls. Grab your shopping list and pen …here’s our favourite natural remedies and how to incorporating the Curly By Nature Method:
Before washing:
1.AVOCADO OIL Rinse your curls with warm water then after applying a few drops of quality oil like our Hair Repair Oil, apply a generous amount of warm Avocado oil (or Olive oil) to your damp hair. Be sure to detangle your curls gently from the ends of the hair to the roots and leave the oil in for 30minutes before shampooing.
When washing:
2.HONEY Use a SLS free Shampoo or gentle cleanser like our coconut and sugar-based Moisture Shampoo, then boost your conditioner (we highly recommend our Intensive Conditioning Mask to repair and strengthen your curls) with two tablespoons of honey (Manuka honey if possible). Cover your curls with a plastic cap for 30 minutes before lightly rinsing out.
After washing:
3.BAOBAB OIL After applying a few drops of our Hair Repair Oil add a generous amount of baobab oil to your Leave-in conditioner to restore moisture to your hair after washing.
Before bed:
4.CALENDULA OIL Apply a generous amount of calendula oil to your scalp as part of your nightly hair care routine. Lock in the goodness by covering your coils with a silk scarf before bed.
When styling:
5.KUKUI NUT OIL Add a few drops of kukui nut oil to wet or dry coils before styling.
These simple suggestions will have such a profound effect on the health of your hair! You will be amazed by the quick and effective results. We encourage you to take care of your hair by adopting these simple steps or opting for quality, professional products that feature a decent proportion of these quality ingredients.
Our range of hair treatments are formulated with all of these natural ingredients, so they’re a particularly great choice for the colder months particularly the Hair Repair Oil which is our best selling product!

do your products work on relaxed hair ?
Hello Ophelia,
Our products work effectively on relaxed hair and you see results immediately in terms of hair health and strengthening.
I am glad you asked that question Ophelia- we focus on creating effective formulations with hair that is genetically curly despite current condition, style or state – even when it is relaxed!
