When I use this shampoo my hair feels simply clean, not depleted, not stripped.
be curly advanced™ shampoo
Follow a wash with this conditioner. It has pretty good slip, but best of all it leaves my hair nourished without weighing it down or feeling slimy or like straw.
be curly advanced™ conditioner
You need only a little of this. It's the first product I put on my hair fresh out of the shower. I focus mainly on the ends to keep them healthy looking.
damage remedy™ daily hair repair | Leave-In Treatment ...
This spray is a game changer! It's the final product I use on wet hair. It's adds texture and hold. The website should include pics of this used on curly hair bc it make all the difference. I don't use it every day, the bottle is somewhat small imo, ...
Texture Tonic Texturizing Spray
I use just maybe a nickel-sized amount of this and emulsify with a bit of water. If you have fine hair you don't want too much of this.
be curly advanced™ curl enhancer cream
I use this pretty liberally. I section my hair and make sure each section is thoroughly treated with this. Adds shine and hold.
confixor™ liquid hair gel
Some extreme hold, especially at the roots, does wonders for volume with fine hair. Fights humidity too.

Quickest method for creating curl clumps. Use root to end.
Define EdgeLift Brush
After applying all of my styling products, I use clips to lift the root during drying. Some air dry until the hair gets a bit of a cast and then I diffuse.
Rainbow Coated Metal Styling Clips - Kitsch | Ulta Beauty
Game changer. After a bit of air drying, this hairdryer works fast and doesn't give me frizz. Easy magnetic diffuser attachment. It's small and compact and travels well so I love not having to rely on hotel hairdryers.
High-Speed Ionic Low Noise Hair Dryer
When you’re in a hurry these are incredible for root lit. I prefer the accuracy of individual clips but that’s not realistic every day.

I get the best day 2 curls when I use all the silk things
Silk matters. Our curls are delicate, protect them at all cost. These are worth it. Pair with a silk (not satin) pillowcase.
Pure Silk Scrunchies - Slip
Silk (not satin) pillowcases are essential for protecting your curls AND silk is better on your skin. Consider it a Twofer: frizz free curls and clearer skin!
White Pure Silk Queen Pillowcase - Slip
Use 100% silk whenever you can! I use the pillowcase AND the turban. Not that you need both, but I find that the using the turban makes for wonderful day-two curls. Locks in moisture and is comfy to sleep in imo. Just pull hair up into a pineapple an...

Worthwhile investment in your hair and your health.
Women's Balance
Requires committed daily use and is well worth it. My dermatologist recommended 5% foam so that's what I use. Don't waste your time with other "women's" formulas that are 2%.
