Condition:
If your curls are dry and frizzy, reach for ghee! To use, mix equal parts ghee and your favorite oil, such as olive, coconut or avocado. Mix together and apply to your curls. Cover with a cap and let sit for 20-30 minutes. Shampoo with a gentle cleanser and enjoy softer, healthier curls.
Repair:
A lack of moisture can lead to split ends, which leads to damaged curls. Warm up a little ghee in the microwave and apply it to the ends of your curls. Allow to sit for an hour and then rinse with a mild shampoo and cool water. Your curls will be much more manageable and less prone to breakage.
Shine:
If your curls are looking a little dull and lackluster, grab some ghee. Use ghee throughout your curls regularly (About once a week or so) to increase the overall shine and health of your curls. Your curls will be smoother, easier to manage and give your curls a gorgeous bounce!
