To soften the regrowth of curly, frizzy hair during the hair transition back to natural hair.

The only option is to properly hydrate and nourish the hair, just like any other hair type.

Avoiding hard water, which is common in some parts of the world, also helps to soften hair.

1/ To hydrate

You have the choice between:

- Make a moisturizing spray or bottle with mineral water + a humectant + optionally some vegetable oils of your choice. Or buy a ready-made moisturizing spray. Apply the spray before each styling session to soften the hair. If you use a humectant, it's best to avoid straightening or stretching your hair in humid conditions, as the humectant will cause frizz.

- Apply organic (if possible) moisturizing gels such as aloe vera, okra, or flaxseed. The gel can be mixed with an oil as needed to nourish the hair as well.

- Drinking plenty of water also helps.

2/ To nourish the hair

You can choose between vegetable oils or vegetable butters, depending on your needs and their properties. You can mix them and add a humectant to keep your hair hydrated and nourished. Alternatively, there are ready-made products available for purchase.

Hair porosity helps determine which types of products to choose. So, to find out your natural hair porosity and get information about hair porosity, click here .

Relaxed hair has high porosity, with the hair cuticles being destroyed or damaged in most cases.

3/ The limescale in the water

To avoid the limescale in the water that dries out hair, there's the rinsing technique.

This method involves using mineral water mixed with apple cider vinegar or lemon juice for a final rinse after washing your hair. This technique removes limescale buildup and restores the hair's natural shine.

Hopefully this information will help you soften your hair.
