These cool haircuts for men with curly hair make the most of hair’s natural texture while exuding style. Anything goes with curls from short hair to long, fades to tapers and classic to trendy.
Once you have a great cut, an essential part of maintenance is keeping hair clean and conditioned. The best shampoo for men’s curly hair is actually no shampoo! Curly hair tends to be dry because the spirals prevent scalp’s oil from working their way down to the tip, naturally conditioning hair. Daily washing eliminates those oils and makes hair even drier.
Get started by skipping the shampoo every other day. Ideally wash hair only once or twice a week. Do condition every day either in the shower with a rich moisturizer like Pureology Hydrate Conditioner or a leave-in product that also tames frizz like it’s a 10 miracle leave-in product. When you do shampoo, use a curl specific or gentle shampoo like American Crew Moisturizing Shampoo.
For styling, the right product depends on the style. Use an alcohol-free gel like Eco Styler Olive Oil Styling Gel
