The Secret to Fabulous Hair: Trims and Tips!

When it comes to rocking healthy, fabulous hair, two things are key: regular trims and continuous education. Let’s dive into the magic of both!

1: Maintenance Trims

Hold on to your scissors! Regular trims are essential to keep those split ends at bay and maintain the shape of your curls. Here’s the scoop:

When to Trim Your Hair:

  • Short Hair: Trim every 4-6 weeks!
  • Medium to Long Hair: Trim every 8-12 weeks!
  • Growing Your Hair Out: Trim every 10-12 weeks!
  • Tight well moisturized curls: Trim 14-16 weeks!

Why Trims are a Win: Maintenance trims are the secret weapon to beautiful curls. Just ask anyone of our talented stylists at Curl Evolution! Our stylist work wonders with dry cutting to amplify your hair’s unique curl pattern for a look you’ll absolutely love.

Dry cutting:

  • Showcasing your natural beauty
  • Eliminating the guesswork of wet cuts
  • Creating styles that boost your confidence

Signs your curls are overdue

  • you can see through the bottom to your shirt beneath
  • ends are straight
  • ends are tighter than the rest of your hair
  • you can’t easily comb through the ends with conditioner

BONUS: Banishing Fairy Knots

Noticing tiny, annoying knots in your curls? Those are fairy knots, and while the name sounds cute, they’re a sign your hair needs some TLC. Here’s how to tackle them:

Conditioning Routine to the Rescue:

  1. Squeeze the Water Out: Before applying conditioner, remove excess water to avoid diluting your product.
  2. Comb It Through: Start with your fingers, then use a wide-tooth comb, finishing with a FINE TOOTH comb to ensure every strand gets the moisture it needs.
  3. Let It Sit: For best results, leave the conditioner in your hair for at least 5 minutes.

Our Top Picks for Conditioners:
