Cleansing Moisturizing Co-wash

CO-WASHING FAQS

• Is co-washing right for you?

1. Co-washing works wonders for those with curly, coily, or dry hair. Our co-wash helps lock in moisture, softens strands, reduces breakage, and can boost curl definition

• Will my hair need time to adjust?

1. Like any new routine, co-washing may take time for your hair and scalp to adapt. Some may notice changes in just a few washes, while others may need a few weeks. As your scalp balances its natural oils, consistency is key—give your curls time to thrive.

• How often is co-washing recommended?

1. Co-washing is ideal for curly or dry hair and can be used regularly in your routine to maintain moisture without over-cleansing. It’s perfect for refreshing hair between shampoos, restyling, or when you want to preserve your hair’s natural oils without needing a full wash.

• Is a leave-in needed after co-washing?

1. If your curls feel dry or need extra moisture, a leave-in or deep conditioner can help. But if your hair is well-hydrated, skipping this step may keep your strands light and bouncy.

• What benefits does co-washing offer your curls?

1. Mild Cleansing: Co-washing provides a gentle cleanse, making it perfect for dry hair that needs moisture without the harshness of traditional washing.
2. Ultra-hydration: It deeply hydrates both the scalp and hair, leaving them soft, nourished, and moisturized after every use.
3. Non-Stripping: Co-washing helps preserve your hair's natural oils, supporting stronger, healthier hair over time.
4. Reduced Breakage: It minimizes breakage, especially in curly and coily hair, strengthening hair and reducing damage.

CURL-BOOSTING CO-WASHING TIPS YOU’LL LOVE

If you want to get the best results in co-washing and make your curls even more soft, touchable, and easy to style, try these advanced softening techniques:

1. Use Warm Water: Before applying your NeoCurly co-wash, rinse your hair with warm water. This helps to open the hair cuticles, allowing for deeper moisture penetration and making it easier for the product to cleanse and hydrate your curls.
2. Gentle Massage: When applying co-wash, massage it gently into your scalp and hair with your fingertips. This will help loosen any buildup while stimulating your scalp, promoting better circulation for healthy hair growth. The massage also distributes the product more evenly, ensuring each curl gets the care it needs.
3. Let it Sit: For an extra boost of moisture, allow the co-wash to sit on your curls for a few minutes before rinsing. This gives the nourishing ingredients more time to soften and hydrate your hair, leaving it feeling even more conditioned.
4. Detangle with Fingers: While co-washing, use your fingers to gently detangle your curls. The softening properties of the co-wash make it easier to glide through your hair without causing breakage or frizz, resulting in smooth, defined curls.
5. Cool Water Rinse: After co-washing, rinse your curls with cool water. This helps to close the hair cuticles, sealing in moisture and enhancing the softness and shine of your curls.
6. Use a Microfiber Towel: After washing, avoid rough drying with regular towels, as this can cause frizz. Instead, gently squeeze out excess water with a microfiber towel or a cotton t-shirt. These materials absorb moisture without disrupting the curl pattern.
7. Finish with a Leave-in Conditioner: To lock in all the softness, apply a leave-in conditioner after co-washing. This will help maintain hydration throughout the day and keep your curls feeling soft, touchable, and easy to style.

By incorporating these softening techniques into your co-washing routine, you’ll enhance the natural beauty of your curls, keeping them soft, manageable, and full of life.
