NEW PRODUCTS! Embrace your curls & let Naturtint provide the unique care they need!
November 30 2022 by: Jo M
It doesn’t take a trichologist (that’s a hair scientist to you and me!) to work out that curly hair, by its very shape and structure, requires different products than straight hair to cleanse and nourish, but did you also know that there are many different types of curls, each with their own unique properties and needs?
Straight hair is Type 1 hair, but curly hair can be Type 2, 3 or 4 hair and within each type, there can be a different grade of curl;
All types of curly hair are more porous than straight hair, because the cuticles are unable to lie as flat, which not only means it is more susceptible to frizz, but it is also weaker, more fragile and prone to dehydration.
And because it takes longer for the natural oils from the scalp to reach the ends of the hair when it is curly, it can lack shine and feel dry to the touch. It makes sense therefore that the tighter and more frequent the curl, the more pronounced these properties are – how you use products on curly hair is therefore as important as what products you use on curly hair.
So, what’s a curly girl to do? Enter the Naturtint Curly range – a vegan-friendly, dermatologically-tested range specifically developed for the unique needs of all types of curly hair and complementary to the ‘Curly Girl’ method.
To maintain the natural health and strength of curly hair, action must be taken to strengthen its structure. Because the cuticles of the hair do not lie as flat as in straight hair, the hair’s cortex is subjected to environmental stresses and deteriorates very easily.
The Naturtint Curly range uses revolutionary technology based on the synergistic action of Amaranth Seed Extract and Hydrolysed Quinoa to create a proactive treatment that results in more defined, softer curls that are easier to manage;
This proactive treatment is then combined with a tailored blend of powerful natural ingredients to create each product in the Naturtint Curly range.
The combined action of the proactive treatment and selected natural ingredients repair, protect, moisturise and nourish curly hair for naturally defined, soft curls without frizz. The Naturtint Curly range is suitable for vegans, dermatologically tested and contains no sulphates, silicones, parabens or phenoxyethanol. Each product contains at least 89% ingredients of natural origin.
