Favorite Shampoo & Conditioners 🧴
These are the shampoo and conditioners I have found that are hydrating but are light and won’t weigh down fine curls.
{ad} I highly recommend this line to anyone with fine, curly, dehydrated and/or colored hair!
I always buy tubs with pumps from Ulta when they have their once a year sale, and then I get rewards on my Ulta card.
33.8 oz Hydrate Shampoo - Pureology | Ulta Beauty
{ad} This has been my go to conditioner since the Deva Curl controversy years ago. I switched to this, and never looked back. I love it because it’s light weight and hydrating. It reminds me of the Paul Mitchell tea tree collection!
Pureology - 33.8 oz Hydrate Sheer Conditioner
{ad} I always keep smaller bottles of my holy grail shampoo and conditioner on hand for travel in my checked luggage.
Pureology Hydrate Shampoo - Dry/Color Hair
{ad} This size is big enough to bring in checked luggage for when traveling for extended time like a week or more. Sometimes travel size just isn’t big enough!

Hydrate Sheer Conditioner For Fine Dry Colored Hair - Pureology
{ad} The bottle is so pretty it’s like a rose gold, it feels kind of luxe, the smell is fruity clean and crisp, nothing overly powerful. After a few days, and a few washes I’m not sure if it is as hydrating as it needs to be.
Curl Conditioner - Living Proof
{ad} I love the smell of this, and it is really moisturizing, but it might be a little too heavy for my hair.
10.1 oz All Soft Mega Curls Conditioner - Redken
Scalp Care 💆♀️
It took me a while to realize this, but healthy hair begins at the scalp. For dry, dehydrated, curly, or fine hair, scalp care is especially important because these hair types are more prone to buildup, dryness, and irritation. Using scalp exfoliator...

Leave Ins 💧
Leave-in conditioners are a game-changer for keeping hair hydrated, manageable, and frizz-free all day long. Unlike traditional rinse-out formulas, leave-ins stay in your hair to provide continuous moisture, heat protection, and detangling support. T...
{ad} ✨ Why I Love Curl Manifesto & Why I Recommend It ✨
Finding products that keep curls hydrated, defined, and frizz-free without weighing them down can feel impossible — but Kérastase Curl Manifesto delivers. It’s designed with manuka honey and...
Kerastase Curl Manifesto Leave-In Cream 5.07oz
{ad} So I got this as a travel size during the Ulta sale, I do this when I want to try new products before I commit to full size. I’ll be honest, I assumed this would be to heavy and it wasn’t for my curl type, but I really really like this! I found ...
PATTERN - 9.8 oz Leave-In Conditioner
{ad} I just bought this from Ulta. After I washed my hair, I sprayed this and used as a detangler before my curl cream. OMG my curls were SO defined, and hydrated…they tightened up SO much. I was kind of taken aback how much my hair sucked up the hyd...
Leave-in Conditioner
Favorite Curl Creams ➰
These are some curl creams that I’m loving 🥰 right now that leave curls shiny and defined.
{ad} This has been viral on TikTok. I tired a sample of this Ouai curl cream from my Ipsy box? Or maybe Ulta diamond rewards gift? It’s hard to keep track where I get my samples or travel size products sometimes! Either way I really like it! It was a...
OUAI Curl Cream
{ad} I love this curl cream, I got it as a sample, and I’m glad I did because I ended up buying the full size after. It’s light weight and defines my curls. It’s pretty basic, nothing totally special about it.
5.0 oz Complete Air Dry Cream - JVN
{ad} My OG fav curl cream. A lot goes along way, I really love how hydrating it is, and my curls look great after. Only thing I hate is the applicator! It’s like a whipped cream bottle 🤭 which is clever marketing, but honestly the applicator is not ...
Moisture Lock Whipped Curls Daily Conditioner and Primer - Ouidad
{ad} I really liked this curl cream! Another girl that has really beautiful blonde curly hair, when I asked her what she uses for curl cream, she was like Curlsmith! You haven’t heard of it? I felt a little left out and went out immediately bought th...

Kerastase Curl Manifesto Gelee Curl Serum
Hair Sprays 💨
Here’s a list of sprays such as UV protection, flexible hold hairspray and hair perfume that I recommend. You can also create your own leave in sprays with leave in conditions and curl cream in a spray bottle!
{ad} Curly hair doesn’t really need hair spray, but if it’s flexible, it definitely can be a staple in your routine, and help keep your curls in place all day.
Since I don’t really need hairsprays, it must double as a perfume! Ameka in my opinion h...
Ameka Fluxus Touchable, Flexible Hold Hairspray
{ad} I’m obsessed with Moroccan Oils distinct smell! This is a perfume, it doesn’t do anything for styling, just a spray before you head out to have your hair smelling fresh. I’m sure they will or already have come out with a dry shampoo? That seems ...
Hair & Body Fragrance Mist
{ad} I live in San Diego, so I use this to protect my hair from the sun! ☀️ I grew up using Aveda products and this is another one of my favs.

Heres a list of tools that I recommend that have really been a staple in my curly hair routine!
