The first rule of curly hair is that no two curl patterns are the same. Though both you and your pal might have expertly classified 2C curls, what works best for you – both with regards to your personal style and your own hair needs – is entirely unique.
The second golden rule is to never dry brush your curls when styling. Whether you’ve had curly ringlets for as long as you can remember, or you’re only just discovering your natural waves thanks to #CurlTok – a hashtag which has amassed over 780 million views on the platform –the number one warning that all curly-headed girls are heeded from youth up to adulthood is to never brush one’s curls when they’re dry. That is, unless you’re into the lion’s mane look.
