Having beautiful curls comes naturally to busy teen actress and singer, Selena Gomez.  With such a demanding schedule and being constantly photographed, she provides a picture-perfect example of how to sport curls!

While it’s true that this teen starlet with Mexican roots (pun intended!) has access to top industry stylists, it’s refreshing to know you don’t have to be rich and famous to keep your bouncy curls healthy and gorgeous.  Even when she’s out bowling – as we’ve spotted Selena doing with Taylor Swift and friends on her day off – guess what? Her curls still look phenomenal!

When it comes to men’s hair, most style options are traditionally short—especially for African-American men with kinky hair. And this often requires regular visits to the barbershop or salon to maintain.  But in between professional treatments, there is one simple and important step from Ouidad that you can take to make sure your curls stay looking fresh.

Since kinky hair is often fine and delicate, it is important to moisturize to prevent your curls from becoming dry, brittle and damaged.  It’s simple to find a leave-in conditioner that is right for your hair. Remember, inadequately moisturized hair leads to hair damage; and damaged hair can easily lead to hair loss.

As an extra precaution, try Ouidad’s conditioner with built-in sunscreen to help protect your scalp from sunburn and other skin damage from all kinds of weather. Consider these important curly cues, and keep wearing your curls with confidence, no matter how long or short you choose to style them!

When US Weekly asked Hollywood’s hair and makeup experts to weigh in on what’s hot (and what’s not) this season, our very own Ouidad spoke up, sharing her noteworthy advice on how to manage your curls and stay on-trend!

In the magazine’s In & Out spread, Ouidad tells us how best to wear spring’s freshest hair accessories, to adorn your tresses with impeccable style. “Wide plastic headbands feel clunky during this warmer season,” says Ouidad.  So she suggests: opt for the pulled together look of a hair brooch. “Hair brooches are an easy way to add glamour to even the simplest spring look.”

In the piece 20 Express Makeovers, Ouidad reminds us how to de-winterize our hair and tame those frizzies for warmer weather, with a protective leave-in conditioner. Ouidad adds “To tame frizz, run leave-in conditioner through hair.” She says that “It coats cuticles to keep tresses sleek.”

Throughout the pages, Ouidad is also cited as hairstylist for Minnie Driver’s incredible curls, as well as having worked with Julianna Margulies and her magnificent mane!
