Wavy Type 2 hair is characteriser by loose, S shaped waves that may range from subtle to more defined. It tends to be prone to frizz and can have a soft texture.

Type 2A hair features loose, barley-there waves that are relatively straight at the root and gradually become wavier towards the ends. It has a gentle bend and is often easy to style.

Step 1: Cleansing

Use CurlyCo's sulphate-free shampoo to gently cleanse your scalp and hair. Apply to the roots and allow the suds to naturally cleanse the length of your hair while rinsing thoroughly. Repeat the shampooing process twice for best results.

Step 2: Conditioning

Apply a lightweight CurlyCo Conditioner from mid-lengths to ends. Use a wide-tooth comb to detangle while the conditioner is in your hair. Rinse thoroughly with cool water to seal the cuticle and enhance shine.

Step 3: Styling

While your hair is still damp, apply and comb a lightweight Curly Defining Mousse to help define your waves and combat frizz. Scrunch your hair upwards to encourage the natural wave pattern.

Step 4: Drying

Allow your hair to air dry or gently diffuse it using a blow dryer with a diffuser attachment to enhance your waves without causing frizz. Dry it on medium heat and medium power. Avoid touching your hair too much while it's drying to prevent disrupting the wave pattern.

Step 5: Maintenance

Sleep in Silk Turban, use silk scrunchie, refresh with water spray bottle if needed. Wash your curls once per week (for Type 2 hair). Avoid touching hair too much to maintain wave definition (for Type 2A hair).

Step 6: Refresh

On non-wash days, you can refresh your waves by spraying them lightly and scrunching to revive the waves.
