The ultimate curly hair pamper routine

With the holidays just around the corner and party season already in full swing, this is the perfect time to plan your very own pamper session.

Bouclème products nourish and revive curls in minutes, but sometimes it’s good to schedule in some Me Time – especially during the social whirl of Christmas.

Get closer to your hair goals with this simple curly hair routine to help detoxify, nourish and repair your strands. Because when your hair feels and looks good, you feel and look good too.

1. Deep condition

Start your session with a deep conditioning mask like Intensive Moisture Treatment. Apply the product in sections and lightly detangle your hair with your fingers to minimise breaking and shedding.

Heat and steam are super beneficial when deep conditioning as they help to open the shaft of each strand of hair, allowing the rich nutrients from the mask to really penetrate. If you don't have a steamer, cover your head with a shower cap, then wet our Curl Towel and pop it in the microwave for about a minute, before wrapping it around your head. Leave it on for at least 10 minutes as you sip your morning coffee and just focus on being present in the moment. Got half an hour? Light a candle, lie down, read a chapter of your book, whatever you find relaxing, now’s the perfect time to take a breath.

Now turn on your shower playlist – it’s time to jump in the shower. We’re thinking Lizzo, because after this session, you’re definitely going to be doing that hair toss with total confidence.

2. Exfoliate

Rinse out the hair mask and then shampoo your hair with Scalp Exfoliating Shampoo. If you're feeling the need for a deep scalp clean, look no further: this super gentle scrub is enhanced with hydrogenated castor beads to exfoliate your scalp and stimulate hair growth. Plus, the stimulating and balancing scent of grapefruit, frankincense and mint will instantly lift your mood.

Pro tip: If you have a Scalp Massager, massage your scalp in small circular motions using the easy to hold grip. This helps evenly distribute the shampoo and gets rid of any build-up. It’s also extremely relaxing, loosening tension that we often don’t even realise we’re carrying.

3. Nourish

Next up is Curl Conditioner, apply generously to soaking wet hair and if your hair needs it, make sure to leave some of that juicy goodness in before stepping out of the shower. Our conditioner has recently been upgraded to enhance its detangling powers, while still leaving hair wonderfully weightless – your curls are in for a treat!

4. Add a protein boost

Don’t forget that if your strands need an extra boost to combat dryness or damage, you can add a few drops of Protein Booster to your conditioner to strengthen your curls and get them in perfect shape for the holidays. Smooth, soft and moisturised hair is yours!

If your hair still feels a bit dry, no worries, simply layer in a few pumps of our ultra-rich nourishing Curl Cream and then style with your favourite gel.

We hope you enjoyed this pamper routine and all that’s left is to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas from the Bouclème team!
