When it comes to drying curly hair, the way you dry can make almost as much of a difference as the products you use. Two of the most popular options are air drying and diffusing, but which one actually gives your curls the best results?

Protective styles are a beautiful and convenient way to switch up your look while giving your natural hair a break from frequent manipulation. Whether you choose braids, twists, faux locs, cornrows, or wigs, the goal is often to protect your strands and make your daily routine easier. However, putting your hair into a protective style does not mean you can forget about it until takedown day.

You already know the drill: cleanse, condition, style, repeat. If your curls are still waking up frizzy, dry, or flat, the missing piece probably isn't your wash day, it's your nighttime hair routine.
