Wash
"This type of hair is often drier because it has the least amount of
oil glands and the largest diameter," says Kingsley. The good news: It
also means you can go the longest between shampoos. "Wash once or twice a
week, and make sure you lather twice if it's been a whole week between
shampoos," says Timothy Brad Wandrey, the director of education for
Cutler/Redken Salons. Use something labeled as moisturizing, like Caviar
Alterna Haircare Moisture Intense Oil Crème
Shampoo and
Conditioner.
"They often contain oils like jojoba, coconut, or argan, which sink in
and restore moisture," says Christyn Nawrot, a national educator for
Phyto and a licensed cosmetologist.
Cut
Get a cut every 12 to 16 weeks, and at every other appointment, ask
your stylist to remove bulk from your hair. "Doing it at every
appointment could make your hair look and feel too thin," warns Wandrey.
Also, try to keep it on the longer side. Styles that are shorter than
shoulder length require more maintenance in a daily styling routine, as
this texture looks best smooth and shaped.
Color
"Coarse hair tends to be naturally dark, so regrowth can be very
noticeable," says Ian Michael Black, the global artistic director for
hair color for Aveda. Color as often as you need to—every two to four
weeks if you have severe grays, or every six to eight weeks for
highlights. "If you're using a semi- or demipermanent formula, pull the
color all the way through to your ends every time to get a boost of
shine," says Justin Anderson, a colorist at the Chris McMillan Salon, in
Beverly Hills. Keep in mind that coarse hair can be very dry, so
incorporate a hydrating mask into your regular routine to prolong your
color's vibrancy.
Style
Heavier styling creams, like
R+Co Jackpot Styling Crème, and oils, like
Dessange Paris Oleo Miracle Replenishing Oil,
are your best bet. "Start with a dime-size amount and add more as
needed," says Wandrey. This will help add moisture and shine and also
define the texture.
Hair Hack
This type takes forever to dry and style. Fake a blow-out by
showering at night and twisting damp hair into a high bun. In the
morning, undo it, and wind a half-inch iron through a few front and side
sections. Set with hair spray.
