Although hair care is considered easy, there are still some people who neglect it. As a result, you often face hair problems such as split ends, dullness, and dryness. Therefore, maintaining hair health cannot be underestimated. You should always take care of your hair regularly. However, before taking care of it, it's good to know the type of hair first so you don't make any mistakes during the treatment. Instead of being curious, check out the following review.

1. Straight Hair Type

The first and most desired hair type is straight hair. In fact, many people measure someone's beauty by the straight hair they have. This is because straight hair appears neat and easy to style. Although it is easy to maintain, straight hair is prone to looking tangled and unkempt.

2. How to Take Care of Straight Hair

Owners of straight hair are indeed blessed with hair that is easy to style. However, straight hair is also prone to getting dirty and appearing oily. That's why you should wash your hair regularly, at least every two days. In addition, always use conditioner. Because the vitamins and proteins in the conditioner will help keep your straight hair easy to manage and smooth.

Although straight hair is very easy to manage, you should also not neglect to comb your hair. So, make it a habit to comb your hair, especially before engaging in activities. It is advisable to use a comb with dense teeth to prevent hair damage.

3. Curly/Wavy Hair

Furthermore, one of the hair types that many people have is curly hair. This hair type has a characteristic of waves in the sea (wavy hair). Usually, the root of the hair is straight, followed by loose waves resembling the letter S. Wavy hair is more prone to tangles and less shiny compared to straight hair.

4. How to Take Care of Wavy Hair

If you have wavy hair, then take care of it by regularly shampooing it 2-3 times a week. Dry your hair using a gentle towel to prevent breakage. Use a special comb for curly hair, usually one with widely spaced teeth. Additionally, do not forget to use a special spray to protect your hair strands from heat. This is important to prevent dryness, damage, and brittleness.

5. Curly Hair Types

Furthermore, curly hair types have elastic and slightly tight curl patterns. Curls have a distinct spiral pattern with a dense amount. Curly hair types often have the tendency to be easily tangled, dry, and dull.

This is due to the small spiral pattern that prevents natural hair oils from reaching the entire strand. The uneven distribution of oil results in the curly hair section being less nourished, leading to extreme dryness, tangling, and lack of shine.

6. Caring for Curly Hair

Curly hair has its own challenges, such as being more difficult to manage, prone to breakage and shedding. To take care of it, it is recommended to regularly shampoo 2-3 times a week. Do not forget to use conditioner to make the hair smoother, moisturized, and nourished. Avoid tying the hair too tightly. It is better to tie the hair on top of the head using the pineapple method.

7. Curly/Kinky Hair Types

Curly hair, also known as coily hair or kinky hair. This type of hair has the characteristic of thick hair volume. In addition, curly hair also has smaller spiral shapes. Kinky hair easily shrinks because its curly volume is actually very thin and expands when dry. The hair shaft is also easily brittle and lacks shine, due to the minimal hair cuticle layer.

8. How to Care for Curly/Kinky Hair

In order to achieve an attractive appearance, you also need to properly care for kinky hair to make it look beautiful. The way to care for kinky hair is by regularly shampooing with a shampoo that contains weightless Nutri-oils to nourish the hair.

In addition, do not forget to use conditioner. Use hair serum and cream to avoid tangled hair, keep away from heat styling tools, and use a wide-toothed comb when combing.

Those are the various types of hair based on how to care for them. Therefore, make it a habit to perform the above treatments to obtain healthy and strong hair. Hope it's useful.
