Ouidad: The Curl Experts

There’s no denying all the possibilities of curly hair.  No matter what your curl pattern is, the style options are endless! For kinky hair, two-strand twists are a popular and versatile hairstyle; twists can be worn as is, or as a way of achieving a carefree, voluminous look.  In this great video “Ouidad How-To: The Two-Strand Twist,” Ouidad Salon stylist Ayanna shows us her two-strand twist technique.

The two-strand twist is a quick and easy do-it-yourself look, and with Ouidad’s Curl Quencher Moisturizing Styling Gel, you’ll twist yourself into another great look. DIY two-strand twists can really define your curls too!  Try it!

Champagne, canapés, smiles and glorious curls made for a celebratory “curls night out” recently with Ouidad in New York City! City gals and their pals with curls came out to our flagship New York City Salon for a night on the town of great fun and to learn how to work with their curly hair!

Ouidad herself was on hand to mentor these beautiful women and to share their excitement at finally having the tools to tame their curls. Here’s a peek at the fun!

After using Ouidad products and experiencing Ouidad styling, the women were uniformly enthusiastic. “Honestly,” said one participant at the end of the event, “my curls have never looked like this! I was a frizzy mess when I walked in!”

For some, leaving the Ouidad salon with healthy curls was a first. And, as they paraded out the door when the evening was over, one gorgeously-curly woman summed it up: “All I have to say is watch out, New York, because a lot beautiful curly women are coming out on the town tonight!”

Look out New York, indeed!

Living in a desert presents a whole new set of issues and solutions for curls. With hot and dry weather year round, it’s important to protect those gorgeous curls before spending time in the beaming sun.

Our curly haired YouTube friend, @wavhairgirl, stays super active in the great outdoors, whether it’s climbing, hiking, or biking. This of course, has been really tough on her hair… until she discovered Ouidad’s Sun Shield! It’s now a part of her regular curl routine! Check it out here;

Sun Shield protects your hair against sun damage with effective UV blockers. All you have to do is spray it on your curls prior to exposure. The product is also great if you’re spending time at the beach or by the pool. Sun Shield creates smoother, softer, and shinier curls. Who wouldn’t want that?

Thanks to @wavhairgirl for showing us how to love and protect our curls!
