Top Tips For Healthy Curls

How to Care for Curly Hair with Davines Products at DKUK Salon in Peckham

Curly hair is beautiful, unique, and full of personality, but it does require a little extra love to keep it looking its best. At DKUK Salon in Peckham, we understand the needs of curly-haired clients and offer expert advice and products to help you embrace your natural curls. Using Davines products, particularly the LOVE Curl range, we ensure your curls stay healthy, hydrated, and full of life.

The Challenges of Caring for Curly Hair

Curly hair tends to be drier and more prone to frizz than straight hair. The natural shape of curls makes it harder for scalp oils to travel down the hair shaft, leading to dryness and breakage. That’s why it’s essential to use the right products and follow a tailored routine to keep your curls defined and healthy.

At DKUK, we recommend Davines’ LOVE Curl range, designed specifically for curly and wavy hair. The range is enriched with natural ingredients that nourish and protect your hair without weighing it down.

Why We Love the Davines LOVE Curl Range

The Davines LOVE Curl range is ideal for enhancing the natural beauty of curly hair. Packed with moisturising ingredients like almond extract from Noto, Italy, this range helps to deeply hydrate, improve elasticity, and enhance curl definition. Here are some key products we recommend:

LOVE Curl Shampoo – A gentle, creamy cleanser that hydrates and defines curls.
LOVE Curl Conditioner – A rich conditioner that detangles and nourishes without making hair feel heavy.
LOVE Curl Cream – A leave-in cream to boost curl definition and fight frizz.
LOVE Curl Mask – A deep conditioning treatment to restore moisture and strengthen hair.

Styling Tips for Curly Hair

Styling curly hair can be tricky, but with the right techniques and products, you can achieve beautiful, defined curls. Here are some top tips from the DKUK team:

1. Start with a Hydrating Cleanse

Use the Davines LOVE Curl Shampoo to cleanse your hair without stripping it of essential moisture. Gently massage the shampoo into your scalp, rinse thoroughly, and follow with the LOVE Curl Conditioner to detangle and soften your hair.

2. Apply a Leave-In Product

After washing, apply the LOVE Curl Cream to damp hair. This leave-in product helps to define your curls, reduce frizz, and add moisture. Use your fingers or a wide-tooth comb to distribute the product evenly.

3. Avoid Over-Manipulating Your Curls

Curly hair thrives when left to dry naturally or with minimal manipulation. Use a microfibre towel or an old T-shirt to gently scrunch out excess water, and avoid rough drying with a standard towel.

4. Use a Diffuser for More Volume

If you prefer to dry your hair with a hairdryer, use a diffuser attachment to enhance your curls. Keep the heat setting low and avoid touching your curls too much during the drying process to prevent frizz.

5. Refresh Your Curls Between Washes

To revive your curls between washes, use the Davines LOVE Curl Revitalizer. This product adds moisture and reactivates your curls, making them look fresh and defined without the need for a full wash day.

Maintenance Tips for Healthy Curly Hair

Curly hair requires regular maintenance to keep it looking its best. Here are some essential tips:

1. Get Regular Trims

Visit DKUK Salon in Peckham for regular trims to keep your curls in shape and prevent split ends. Our expert stylists understand how to cut curly hair to enhance its natural shape.

2. Deep Condition Weekly

Make deep conditioning a weekly ritual. The LOVE Curl Mask is perfect for restoring moisture and preventing dryness, especially during colder months.

3. Protect Your Curls at Night

Use a silk or satin pillowcase to reduce friction while you sleep. You can also wrap your hair in a silk scarf or use a bonnet to protect your curls overnight.

4. Embrace the Natural Look

Curly hair is beautiful in its natural state, so embrace your unique texture. Avoid overusing heat tools and harsh chemicals that can damage your curls.
