How to Get Natural Looking Tight Curls

If your hair has any natural wave, the best way to get tight curls is to help hair along as it dries. First, apply a de-tangler or leave-in conditioner to moisturize hair once you get out of the shower. For this process, moisture is essential for healthy, bouncy curls. Heat can kill curls, so we will focus on get natural-looking curls in a safe, natural way.

Then, apply curl creme to each section of wet hair. Take each strand and loop it around your finger in a curling motion to follow-up.

You probably prefer hair that springs straight out from the root, but it can easily fall flat at the top of the head if you’re not careful. To combat this, flip hair over from one side to the next as you apply curl creme.

As hair dries, scrunch it with your hands. To make this process a lot quicker, you may want to use a diffuser on your hair and blow-dry as you scrunch. Diffusers are great as they evenly distribute air to keep frizz to a minimum as they promote the natural wave in your hair.

It may sound counterintuitive, but once hair is close to dry, you’ll want to stop ‘working it.’ If you’ve finally created your ideal curls, you won’t want to smooth them out with the natural oils on your hands. 

Funky Tight Curly Hair Ideas

One of the easiest ways to get perfect long tight curly hair is to have a weave put in. These hair extensions are ideal for those who have shorter natural hair. Another option is to get a chemical perm to change the shape of each strand. Alternatively, you can change the shape of your locks using special curlers or rollers.
