How to Keep Curly Hair From Poofing?

Okay. First, you need to throw out anything you use on your hair that contains sulfates, parabens, waxes, or alcohols. All these dry out your hair and cause it to poof. Use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner (Loreal has great options) and after you use it, dry your hair with a microfiber towel or a t-shirt. Regular towels will frizz up your hair. Never comb your hair outside of the shower and only when your hair is full of conditioner. Once you "t-shirt" your hair, scrunch in some gel (that doesnt contain any of the above ingredients) and leave your hair alone. Your hair might get crunchy from the gel, but DO NOT touch it until it is completely dry, then you can scrunch out the stiffness. Never use heat on your hair (which you already seem to be good with). After a while of this, your hair should be moisturized enough that it wo not poof as much anymore. Good luck!

1. What is a good sulfate-free shampoo?

Do not believe everything they say in advertisements. FYI: "CRUELTY FREE" OR "NOT TESTED IN ANIMALS" MEANS THAT NO ANIMAL TESTING WAS DONE ON THE PRODUCT AND ITS INGREDIENTS. Believe it or not Even if a product never was tested in animals, there's a very good chance its ingredients were. A company might call its products "cruelty free" because it is not doing any animal testing on these ingredients now, although the ingredients may have been tested on animals in the past. In some cases, "no new animal testing" might be a more accurate claim. I agree with Sur La Mer!

I would suggest for shampoo and conditioner, You should try Sulfate-FREE shampoo & conditioner, L'Oreal has a line. But my favorite has to be the Organix line, which you can find anywhere. During my washing process (when my hair is feeling extremely dry) I shampoo two times, cleansing the hair. Then I condition my hair, leaving it on for at least 5 mins, putting nutrients back into my hair. Then wash out with cool water. Then, I deep condition my hair, leaving it on for at least 45 mins. But I prefer to leave it on for a hour under a plastic cap. after the hour, I wash it out with cool water. pat dry my hair, and then I put a quarter size amount of my coconut & olive oil mix in my hair, then comb it down and let my hair air dry.
