As promised, here is an update on my curly hair journey. Today was wash day, which is always exciting. I combined styling products from Kinky Curly to see what results I could achieve. This week, I used Kinky-Curly Knot Today Leave-In Conditioner/Detangler and Kinky-Curly Curly Custard.

Curly Refresh Days
I felt the Kinky Curly products lasted for a good three days after wash day with little to no refresh products. The impending frizz that usually shows up on Day 2 hair didn’t show up until the end of Day 3. My curls kept their shape even with two workout days in the mix! So far, this hair routine has worked the best for my 2c/3a curls.
