Curly Hair Tip No. 8: If a Stylist Comes at You With a Razor, Run Away
Instead, your stylist should work on defining your cut with layers to enhance your curls.

This will help give curls maximum volume and definition," says Harbinger.

Curly Hair Tip No. 10: Don't Crush Your Curls While You Sleep
The key to avoiding this fiasco is using a silk or satin pillowcase while you sleep to keep your curls intact. The slippery fabric won't disturb your hair, and you'll wake up looking just as amazing as you did yesterday. Harbinger pleads curly-haired women to "be gentle and treat your hair as if it is a fine silk or cashmere, not polyester."

Curly hair can be your best asset or your biggest nightmare, depending on the day. Blame your shampoo, straightening iron, pillow or, hell, even the weatherman.
More so than any other hair texture, naturally curly hair can turn a bad hair day into a don't-leave-the-house one. No matter how thin or thick your mane is, curly hair is extremely sensitive to environmental and styling factors, and its naturally dry texture means it needs a little extra loving care each day.
