How to make afrokudri at home?

Unusual styling comes to the rescue when you want to slightly change the image. African curls are applicable to create a daily image, and for the holiday. This is a very convenient option, as the hairstyle does not require constant attention. You can create a unique image in different ways, it is only important to take into account the length of the hair.

A great feature of African curls is that they visually shorten hair by 10-15 cm. It is important to consider this factor before starting the experiments. Girls with different lengths of hair should use different methods of creating curls.

The peculiarity of the hairstyle at such a length is that it is necessary to use means for fixation. If we neglect the varnish or mousse, then the curls will dissolve under the weight of the hair. Making African curls is not easy, but the result is staggering.

• Immediately before the start of the formation of curls, treat your hair with foam or lotion for styling, curls will be clearer and more reliable;
• after such a hairstyle, it is worth making a couple of masks to restore and moisturize the hair; heat treatment dries hair strongly, and rolling and twisting into bundles harm the overall structure;

• Do not make African braids more than 1 time per month, because the constant kinks make the hair brittle and increase the risk of cutting;
• be sure to pay special attention to the hair at the very roots; if the upper part remains smooth, then the hairstyle will look extremely ridiculous;
• gently comb curls, additional impact strongly puffs hair, curls lose clarity, there is a risk to get the wrong result;

• use a minimum amount of fixation agents, especially hair spray - an excess amount will make the hair heavy, the curls will simply become loose; another result is possible - the hairstyle will lose its naturalness, the curls will look like plastic;
• if you wind the hair upright, the curls will be arranged chaotically; to keep curls strictly down, you need to use the horizontal method;
• Twist the tips carefully so that they do not stick out in different directions after you remove the curlers.
