Hi my dear curly heads
This blog post is all about lovingly caring for and protecting our curls. Today I would like to share with you a simple but effective recipe for a moisturizing curl mask that is perfect for dry and brittle curls.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon corn starch (cornflour)
1 cup of water
1 tbsp coconut oil
1 tbsp conditioner (whichever you prefer)
Preparation:
Pour the water into a saucepan, add the cornstarch and mix well with a whisk. Heat the mixture over a medium heat, stirring constantly, until the water and cornstarch become a thick cream. Allow the cream to cool and stir in the coconut oil together with the conditioner and leave to cool completely.
Application:
Wash the curls with shampoo and massage the curl mask into damp hair. I always work from the ends of the hair to the roots. Then cover the curls with a plastic cap and leave the mask on for approx. 35 minutes. Then rinse the mask well with warm water and finish with cold water. The cold water is good for closing the hair scales.
Now comb as usual, your curls will thank you.
I hope you are as happy with this recipe as my curly mane is :)
See you soon my dears,
Sincerely
Rosa Maria
PS: if you have any questions, I am always happy to answer them :)
