Seeing your curls thin is a terrible feeling. We work so hard to keep our curls healthy that when they thin, it can be very distressing.
There are a lot of things that can cause thinning hair. This can include stress, hormonal imbalance, poor diet, pregnancy, and other health issues. If you’re experiencing curl loss or thinning hair, make sure you visit your healthcare provider to rule out any underlying causes. If everything’s been checked out, you might consider these tips to help you learn what you need to know about thinning curls.
Mix it up:
It could be that your hair has gotten used to the products you’ve been using forever, or you’ve developed a sensitivity. Mixing it up and picking new products is not only fun, it can give your strands a break. Some curlies will need to mix it up more often than others, so consult with your hair stylist to help figure out what works best for you.
The right products:
Not every product works for every type of curl. If you have very thin, fine curls, using a product that is too heavy can actually be counterintuitive. Some products can be too heavy for your curls, which will create build up. Curls with build up tend to get dragged down. This can also lead to an unhealthy scalp, which will inhibit curl growth and the recovery of lost strands.
Wash less:
Overwashing your strands can stress your curls out. Stressed curls are far more likely to thin than healthy, well hydrated curls. However, no one wants to deal with an oily scalp. To help you stretch out wash days, consider picking up dry shampoo. Not only will it help you go longer between washes, it will also absorb some of the excess oils on your scalp. This means you’ll have better curl days as well.
Cleanse your curls:
Detoxes are very in fashion right now, and your curls shouldn’t be left out. If you don’t take the time to remove build up from your scalp, you’re going to lose more hair. A clogged scalp can’t grow healthy curls. About once a month, use a clarifying shampoo or a scalp detoxing treatment to get rid of any lingering build up on your hair. Massage your scalp to encourage healthy blood floor. This will help curls grow back in and stay healthy.
