Do you not have straight hair but also no real curl? Then you are blessed with the so-called 'beach hair' or 'waves'. That's actually the best of both worlds: your hair is a lot easier to manage than straight hair and yet it is reasonably strong and shiny. However, that doesn't mean you can't damage it or that you don't have to do anything about it. Below you can read how castor oil the best one for your type of hair and all the products you can use for it.

NO GREASY HAIR

Just like with straight hair, you don't want your hair to be too greasy or too heavy. Therefore, treat your hair 2 to 3 times a week before washing it. This can be done fifteen minutes before washing up to a whole night before washing.

SCALP MASSAGES

The scalp massage is the most well-known treatment with castor oil because the movement also stimulates the skin. So double profit. Use pure castor oil or a mix of different oils. Because castor oil is naturally thicker (similar to liquid honey), it is often mixed with a other oil such as jojoba oil, coconut oil or argan oil. Apply a few drops of oil to your fingertips and massage the oil into the scalp. Repeat for the entire head. You can leave the oil on for 15 minutes, a few hours or overnight before washing it with a sulfate-free shampoo. Repeat washing if necessary.

AS A MASK

For a mask with pure castor oil, you proceed in much the same way as with a head massage, but then apply the oil to the entire hair. Could your hair use some extra care? Then try one of the masks with castor oil.

AS PRE-POO

A pre-poo is the use of oil in your hair before a wash. It puts a protective layer over your hair, so to speak, so that your hair absorbs water less (quickly) and the hair cuticles do not rise as much. This is good for two reasons: the hair swells and shrinks less and the hair is less vulnerable during washing. In addition, the hair is slightly easier to comb and dries out less quickly. Always use a well-cleansing sulfate-free shampoo.
