If your hair is finer, thinner, and more easily weighed down than you may find it difficult to get your hair soaking wet. You may get more flash drying or the appearance of dry hair even when it is soaking wet, because water tends to bead outside, instead of absorbing inside.

That's because your hair is lower in porosity, which means that your hair tends to resist hydration from truly penetrating the hair shaft.

The good news is that your hair holds onto hydration really well, so you can bet that if you spend a little extra time to fully and completely hydrate and create perfect curls on washday, you have a better chance of having curls that will last you all week!

Start with the Innersense Detox Mask, then choose one of the great cleansers listed below for more regular washing, pair it with a lightweight conditioner, lots of water, and encouraging styling strategies to make sure you get water to break surface tension and actually enter the hair shaft. Finish with a light hold product applied with smoothing and scrunching to encourage curl and lock the water inside.
