Thinking about my frizzy, tangled, limp, and dry hair demotivates me from getting up from my bed every morning. The amount of time and effort I would need to spend in the mirror, brushing and styling it is truly a deal-breaker for me. Having curly hair is NOT easy to manage. I have tried almost EVERY product and hacks out there, and yet I still wake up with frizzy, tangled, and dried-out curls. It wasn’t until I found these HOLY GRAIL hacks that I was finally able to LOVE MY CURLS — here are the 5 best hacks I swear by:
1. Cocunat
Cocunat’s three-step curl care is a life changer, a top-tier hair product that I cannot live without.

2. Sleeping on a silk pillowcase
Sleeping on a cotton pillowcase has made my hair frizzy and curls tangled to a different level. My friend recommended that I switch to a silk pillowcase, and it was an epiphany moment for me. Farewell to friction, tangles, dryness, and frizz, and hello good hair days!
3. Apply styling products to wet hair
After I put my leave-in conditioner, I apply styling products all over my hair, scrunching up towards my scalp, until my hair is not dripping anymore. This is a crowning achievement for me!
4. Using an old shirt to dry hair
I’ve learned that towels absorb a significant amount of moisture from my hair, causing it to be dry, frizzy, and prone to tangles. While a t-shirt only absorbs the excess water from my hair, resulting in healthier-looking, soft, and moisturized hair. I am never using a towel to dry my hair ever again.
5. Not touching your hair when drying
This may seem simple, but this technique is a complete game-changer for reducing frizz in your hair. After showering, I try not to excessively touch my hair with my hands to keep my natural curl pattern, resulting in softer, tangle-free, and defined locks. And my favorite part, it’s completely easy and FREE!
