When it comes to textured hair, there is a delicate balance between its styling and care.
As we know, hot tools can be damaging. Their excessive use leads to ruined curl patterns, dryness, split ends and premature color fade.
Allowing our locs a little breather in between styling sessions is always a healthy choice. In fact, a hair respite is the perfect time to give heatless drying a try.
