Tired of curls going crisp dry during cold autumn months? Or want a break from a go-to product? Let’s begin. 

Keeping curly hair nourished during the colder seasons seems like a hassle. However, I have been experimenting with different products and methods to make this process easier. Like any curly hair, they can range from different types. Ranging from 2a waves to 4c curly coils. For this review, I am going to be mentioning products that work for my 3b curls. 

Shampoo & Conditioning 

My favorite 2 brands for curls are Garnier Fructis and Aussie. Garnier Fructis’s Triple Nutrition Shampoo and Conditioner do wonders for wash day looks. This shower set helps my curls come out shiny and fed. Garnier Fructis’s Triple Nutrition featuring avocado, olive, and almond oil are good ingredients to look for moisture. 

For my second favorite set, Aussie’s Miracle Moist Shampoo and Conditioner works well for curls. Aussie’s shower set features avocado and jojoba oil, which are other keys for moisturized hair. As a bonus, this set also leaves my hair smelling amazing! As someone who trusts products featuring avocados and nuts, these sets keep that nourishing promise. 

Styling Creams 

For my go to styling creams, I usually use Shea Moisture Enhancing Smoothie or Maui Moisture Curl Smoothie. On days when my hair is feeling dry like chapped lips, I use Cantu’s Leave-in Conditioning Cream. For my curly queens with hair shorter than medium length, Miss Jessie’s Pillow Soft Curls kept my short curly hair flowy and kept together. 

Oil Hydrations and Leave-in Conditioners 

On days after my wash, I may need another boost for moisture. I use oils or leave-in conditioners to give my hair another day to live again. Occasionally, I use regular conditioner instead of the normal leave-in conditioner products. With the conditioners I mentioned earlier, I use those with a combination of oils. Aunt Jackie’s Frizz Control and D1feel Argan Oil are two oils that boost my curls. Taking one of those oils, and some conditioner, I mix them together in my hand and apply it to my hair. This method helps give life to my hair, which leaves a wash day for another time.
