When we think of Colorado we think of mountains, fresh air and an active lifestyle. And when we think of curls in Colorado , similar adjectives—like fresh, active and natural—come to mind.

It seems that all Colorado women, including women with curls tend to enjoy the out-of-doors, whether hikingskiing or participating in any number of team sports. These gals from the Centennial state are energetic and dynamic … and they need hair care products and styles that complement their active lifestyle. Furthermore, while Colorado is known for its mountain sports, many of the state’s larger metropolitan areas offer nightlife that’s comparable to most any big American city.

The good news for active curls in Colorado : Ouidad has products that can take curls from climbing to clubbing with ease. Women spending lots of time outside—especially in the mountains—need to contend with harsh, drying winds and damaging sun. Products from Ouidad’s Curl Quencher collection keep curls moist and protected even on very windy or sunny days. (And a spray or two of Botanical Boost will protect hair from the sun and refresh curls after a day of hiking!)

Then, when it’s time to hit the clubs in Colorado Springs , PlayCurl Volumizing Foam will pump up the volume for a night on the town!

So whether our curly Colorado gals seek fresh mountain air or a freshly brewed beer selection from one of Denver ’s many micro-breweries, thanks to Ouidad her hair is sure to look perky, natural and fresh!

Ouidad FAQ: How often should I shampoo?

The answer is really a cause for all of us to rejoice!

Why? Because it’s not necessary to shampoo your hair every day. In fact, Ouidad recommends shampooing your curls only 2-3 times per week. This allows your natural oils to lubricate and protect your hair. (And just think about the time you’re saving each morning!)

If you can’t stand shampooing so infrequently, every other day will work too.

To give your hair a quick pick-me-up, Ouidad’s Botanical Boost will refresh and revive your curls in the morning and throughout the day without re-washing. It contains no oils or waxes to weigh your curls down, and helps your curls stay fresh; especially on the days when your hair is left un-washed.
