Hi my dear curly heads
This blog post is all about lovingly caring for and protecting our curls. Today, I’d like to share with you a simple but effective recipe for amoisturizing curl mask that’s 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.
Directions:
Wash your curls with shampoo and massage the curl mask into towel-dried hair. I always work from the ends of the hair toward the roots. Then cover your curls with a plastic cap and let the mask sit for about 35 minutes. Afterward, rinse the mask out thoroughly with warm water and finish with cold water. The cold water helps close the hair cuticles.
Now comb as usual—your curls will thank you.
Hope you’re just as happy with this recipe as my curly mane is :)
See you soon, my dears,
Warm regards
Rosa Maria
