Every day is the best day for every Latina to celebrate her heritage. The diversity of the Latino community should be embraced every day and not only during special events.
Every Latina differs in skin color, eye color, skin type, and hair type. Latina hair can be straight, wavy, or curvy. There are different hair care treatments for different hair types.
Here are some tips on how to take care of different Latina hair types:
For Straight Hair Types
One of the major problems with maintaining straight hair is that it tends to look flat on the head.
One way to avoid this is to use shampoo and conditioner that adds volume. This way, the hair will look thicker and more volumized.
Some products that add volume to hair do not have moisturizing features. One way to moisturize the hair is by using oil. It can be done by first applying the oil on the ends of the hair and spreading the product to the middle parts of the hair. This way, the hair will look shiny and healthy.
Additionally, for flat looking straight hair, do not apply a non-volumizing condition on the roots of a hair.
Also, getting a choppy haircut is not the best choice for people with flat straight hair. Instead, get a haircut that is designed with layers to include more movement in the hair.
For Wavy Hair Types
Hydrating products are wavy hair’s best friend. Hydrating hair care products are helpful not to weigh down those perfect waves.
An article from Latin Times said that hair masks are also a good treatment for people with wavy hair. A person with wavy hair is advised to use hair masks every other week.
Also, choosing the best hair cut for wavy hair perfects the look. For wavy hair types, it is ideal to pick a style that enhances the wave’s natural look and texture.
There is a rule that for wavy hair, the layer should exceed the chin. However, this still depends on the length of the hair.
For Curly Hair Types
There are now many women who are emphasizing their curls to complete their look.
Curly hair is transforming into a hair trend. However, this hair type is a bit challenging to maintain. The reason for this difficulty in maintaining curly hair is its high tendency to become dry.
For people with curly hair with high possibilities of getting dry, you should only wash your hair once or twice every week. It is also beneficial to use shampoos and conditioners that are created specifically for curly hair.
Also, it is recommended to comb the hair while it is still wet. By using a natural and artificial bristled brush, untangling and brushing the hair becomes a less painful and difficult process.
People with curly hair should avoid hair care products with ingredients such as alcohol. It is also advised to avoid using hairspray, mousse, and get, these products tend to dry up curly hair.
