Trim Your Ends
If a completelynew haircutfeels too extreme, consider a simple trim instead.
Trims benefit all hair textures, especially curly hair, which can be weighed down and lose volume.
Making this a consistent practice will have even more benefits for your hair in the long run.
However, they also provide a tonal or color change.
“Glosses are a great way to add shine and enhance your natural color,” explains Mena.
Hair glosses have benefits forall hair textures, as they do not change yourcurl pattern.
This treatment can be done at home or in the salon, making them an accessible option.

Bangs can be added to any existing haircut for a fresh new take.
Like curtains for your face, bangs can enhance your natural features and bring attention to your eyes.

Many of these treatments spend over 30 minutes massaging the scalp to ensure any buildup is removed.
