The trend this spring has been towards embracing your hair’s natural texture, but as we move toward the hotter humid days of summer those with loads of natural texture face some unique challenges. Kinky curly hair can be especially difficult to manage when temperatures and the humidity rise. Relaxing your curls is an option that you may want to consider to help you achieve smooth, sleek summer styles. Let’s take a look at a few of the benefits.
Easier Styling
The most obvious benefit to relaxing your hair is that it makes styling easier. With your hair already smoother and straighter your daily styling routine will be reduced by more than half, which will free up time to try some of those more intricate hairstyles you’ve been shying away from because they would simply take too long.
Reduced Frizz
Those with naturally curly hair know that humidity is the enemy in the battle against frizz. Relaxing your hair fights half the battle for you by smoothing your strands to reduce the frizz. Relaxed hair is much easier to manage in humid weather.
No Stretching Required
If you have naturally kinky hair, you are all too familiar with shrinkage. As your hair kinks up it gets shorter, requiring you to stretch your hair regularly to give your hair back its length. With the kinks relaxed there’s no stretching required.
Easier Detangling
Relaxing your hair removes the kinks that cause tangles and knots. With its smoother texture, you’ll be happy to find that you not only experience easier detangling but also less breakage. It takes the stress out of combing and styling.
More Styling Options
With your hair smooth and straight the styling options are endless. You can enjoy all of those smooth, sleek styles that weren’t possible before. And you can always grab a curling iron to create just the right amount of curl when you want it.
