Great Products That Enhance Curls for Women With Curly, Wavy Hair

© Christina Martinez

Finding the right shampoo, conditioner, hair gel and mousse can be a challenge, especially when your hair is curly and wavy.

For women with curly hair, summertime activities like sun bathing and swimming can be damaging, leaving curly hair poofy and dry. Humidity can also do a number on the look, leaving hair frizzy and difficult to maintain. Although the beach hair look is in this summer, you don’t have to risk damaging your hair to sport the wavy style.

Whether your hair is naturally curly or wavy, these hair products will leave your hair shiny, frizz-free and properly maintained throughout the day. The curl amplifiers and boosters within the products allow those with even the straightest hair the chance to style their hair scrunched and crimped for the summer.

Shampoo and Conditioner for Curly Hair

TIGI Catwalk makes a great product specifically marketed for curly hair, known as "the system that rocks your curls." The Curls Rock line of products defines, defrizzes and detangles hair in order to enhance curls. The Curls Rock Shampoo, Conditioner, Leave-In Moisturizer, Curl Booster and Curl Amplifier work together to give your hair the perfect, textured look.

Using a curl enhancing shampoo and conditioner brings out your curls even before you apply product after washing. While shampooing and conditioning may be enough to define your curls, the Curls Rock line also includes a Curl Booster and Curl Amplifier for those who really want to enhance their look. These products can be applied to wet or dry hair after shampooing and will texture hair by bringing out the curl and eliminating frizz.

These products can also be used with shampoos and conditioners of your choice but will give lasting results when used together. Catwalk products can be found at professional salons.

Hair Gel and Mousse for Curly Hair

For some, shampooing and conditioning with special curling products can be enough to maintain their curls, but for those who want to keep the look intact, curling gels and mousses can be very useful. Garnier Fructis markets curling gels that perfect curls and enhance shine after shampooing and conditioning. Using fruit micro-waxes, these gels help shape the curl, controlling bounce and frizz.

The curl sculpting cream gel and the curl shaping spray gel keep curls intact without the stickiness and crunchy feeling other gels can leave behind. These gels can be applied to dry or wet hair. They may be used separateky or together, and are created at different strength levels for different hair types. For those with thicker curls, use the gels at the strongest level. For those with thinner hair, gels may be too heavy and may weigh the down curls.

If your hair is thin and in need of volume, L’Oréal Paris markets Springing Curls, a curl defining mousse that adds volume and definition to curls. After applying the products, hair may be air dried or blown dry with a diffuser to enhance shape. Garnier Fructis and L’Oréal Paris products are affordable and can be found at your local drug store or supermarket.
