Curls can be a blessing or a curse, depending on how you take care of them. Roy Daniel, the hair stylist who has become a favorite of the biggest stars in Israel, knows exactly how to turn any type of curl into a work of art. In a special interview, Daniel opens his professional toolbox and reveals ten essential tips that will help anyone with curly hair to achieve the perfect look. From proper cutting to event styling tips, here's everything you need to know to control your curls:
1. To control long curly hair, it is very important to cut the ends precisely in order to give length and order, and thus the hair grows faster. A triangular cut is usually recommended, so the hair looks longer and fuller.
2. For short curly hair, it is recommended to give an asymmetric line, since it gives a more fashionable look and is suitable for a round face because the length of the neck is lengthened and gives an optical illusion that the face is sharper and more symmetrical.
3. It is recommended to minimize overlaps, and to use salt-free shampoo in order not to open the curl and maintain its natural shape. The overall recommendation is to wash once a week and if you want to refresh, I recommend washing only with cold water.הצגת פוסט זה באינסטגרם
4. After the overlap, it is important to use an oil-based serum in order to close the curl to its natural shape.
5. If the hair is dyed, I always recommend using an ammonia-free color that will preserve the hair or alternatively a gentle wash with low oxygen. It is important to combine materials to protect the hair and while waiting to observe the times (up to 35 minutes) so that the hair does not weaken or burn.
6. Regarding shades, it is recommended to do them without foil in the curls in order to maintain the curl and not cause irreversible damage.

7. For thin curly hair it is recommended to give volume by using salt water (even when the hair is clean but also not near the overlap). Spraying on the ends and roots will give volume and a natural look.
8. Bangs are not suitable for everyone who has curly hair, but for those who do, they can give a younger and lighter look. That is why it is always recommended to check whether it will fit before cutting the image or by using a dedicated application for this.
9. It is important to use a hair mask known for curls and in a small amount. For the first few times, you should combine once every two weeks and see the results, and the same after coloring. It is important to remember not to put on the root, since the mask weakens it and this will greatly damage the volume.

10. When arranging the hair for the event, it is recommended not to straighten the hair before arranging it, but to style it on the natural hair and use hair curlers. The hairstyle should be strengthened with a weak spray and mousse, so that the hair will be preserved throughout the event.
