Use the right products
When it comes to treating coarse hair, look for products that are targeted towards this hair type: preferably a range that is meant to treat rough hair by moisturising the outer layer of your hair shaft. For this, we suggest using the Dove Dryness Care Shampoo and Conditioner. The Pro-Moisture Complex nourishes strands from the cellular level and protects them from daily wear and tear.
Trim regularly
Make sure you get a haircut every 3 months so as to remove the excess bulk from your tresses. While you do that, make sure your hair stylist finishes off with a hair serum that smoothens your hair.
Try co-washing
Co-washing is a common hair washing technique amongst women with thick, rough hair. This is when you wash your hair with a conditioner only. This is because in case of caring for thick, coarse hair, you need to deeply moisturise your tresses—something that can happen with the help of an effective conditioner.
Oil your hair regularly
When you massage oil into the scalp, it goes deep inside and enters the hair cuticle thereby nourishing your tresses from root to tip. So make sure you use an effective hair oil that will make your coarse hair smooth along with preventing it from turning frizzy. We suggest relying on the Indulekha Bringha Oil that’s known for its medicinal properties. Not only does it hydrate your tresses but it also reduces hair fall to a great extent.
Get a detangling brush
Remember that coarse hair is also always prone to breakage because it perpetually feels rough and lifeless. This is why you need to ensure that you don’t use a comb and instead rely on a tangle tweezer that prevents your fragile hair from being pulled out—just what you need when you have coarse hair.
