The best conditioner for the Curly Girl Method can be found at A&F Cosmetics

The Curly Girl Method is specially designed for people with curly hair. One of the most important parts of the Curly Girl Method is using the right Curly Girl conditioner. A bunch of curly hair needs a lot of love and attention to maintain a healthy shine. With a Curly Girl conditioner, you can moisturise and nourish your curls. There are lots of different brands of conditioners like As I am and Curly Secret. Each brand offers a different kind of curl conditioners, different for each hair type.

How often should you use Curly Girl conditioner?

The number of times you should use Curly Girl conditioner varies from person to person. It is often said that conditioning your curls once a week is enough, but this really depends on your hair. It is especially important to listen to your own hair. Some people like to condition their hair three times a week while others only do it once a week with a leave in conditioner. Above all, keep experimenting and see what you and your hair like.

Curly Girl conditioner without silicones and sulphates

One of the main principles of the Curly Girl Method is to avoid silicones and sulphates in your hair products. This is because silicones and sulphates can dry out and damage your hair. This is why all Curly Girl conditioners are free of silicones and sulphates. Luckily, at A&F Cosmetics, you can find plenty of conditioners without silicones and sulphates such as:

Deep cleansing Curly Girl conditioner

Another type of curl conditioner that is important for curly hair is a deep cleansing Curly Girl conditioner. Sometimes your hair needs a boost. Deep cleansing conditioners are more intense which helps nourish and repair your curls. Again, it is important to experiment with how often you need to condition. Some need it more often than others. Some of our favourite deep cleansing Curly Girl conditioners are the Ayurvedic deep conditioner, the Coco deep repair - deep conditioner and the Mielle Babassu oil & mint deep conditioner.

Detangle hair with a good conditioner

If you have a full head of curls, a deep-cleansing curl conditioner may not be enough to detangle your hair. Luckily, we have several special Curly Girl conditioners that are specially made to detangle. Some examples are:

Leave-in conditioner for frizz-free curls

Another type of Curly Girl conditioner that can come in handy is a leave in conditioner for curls. These conditioners are often lighter in substance so they also do not weigh heavily on your curls. A leave in conditioner for curls reduces frizz in your curls and actually defines your curls. It moisturises, conditions and nourishes your curls without weighing them down. Because a leave-in conditioner is so important, you will find some of the best Curly Girl leave-in conditioners in our range. Some of our favourites are:

Co-washes Curly Girl conditioners

Our final recommendation is to use a co-wash conditioner. These conditioners are specially made to act as conditioner and shampoo in one. Because shampoo can damage hair, it is sometimes wise to use a Curly Girl co-wash. These conditioners contain a gentle formula that prevents your hair from drying out or damaging. One of the best co-wash conditioners for the Curly Girl Method is the Creme of Nature creamy hydration co-wash cleansing conditioner.

Tips for using a Curly Girl conditioner

The first step in getting started with the Curly Girl Method is, of course, finding the right products. But it is also important to know how to use these products. Your beautiful curls deserve all the nourishment they need. Therefore, here are some more tips on how best to use the Curly Girl conditioner.

Do not use to little conditioner. When you have a full head of curls, it is important that you use enough conditioner. Curly hair often needs more hydration than straight hair. So it is important that you use enough Curly Girl conditioner. Start at the ends of your hair and slowly work your way up to your scalp.
Give it time. A mistake many people make is putting conditioner in their hair and rinsing it out immediately. But this doesn't give the formula enough time to soak in. So make sure that when you apply a Curly Girl conditioner, you let it soak in for a few minutes.
Rinse the conditioner well. When you have a big head of curls, it can sometimes be difficult to really clean your hair of all shampoo and conditioner residue. Still, it is important to rinse your hair well when using a Curly Girl conditioner. It's not a bad thing if a little residue is left behind, but you need to prevent the conditioner from weighing down your hair or even drying it out.
Keep experimenting. As you can see, there are a huge variety of Curly Girl conditioners. Every hair is different, so it's not surprising that it can sometimes take a while to find the right conditioner for your hair. It is therefore important to keep experimenting and trying different Curly Girl conditioners.
