Knowing how to get the best results with curly hair can be confusing, and even more so with children’s curls. What’s the best way to wash and style kids’ curls so they can love their beautiful, natural hair?

We’ve created Little Curls which is specially made for all little curl types, and designed to be used on children from age 6 months and over. The unique formula of Aloe Vera, Mallow, Coconut and Avocado was chosen specifically to leave children’s curls moisturised, clean, shiny and healthy.

This easy routine will moisturise and define curls, so wash day and beyond is free of tangles and tantrums! The Little Curls Starter Pack has everything you need to wash, style and maintain your children’s curls.

The Little Curls Method

1) Cleanse

Apply the Super Shampoo to wet hair and massage gently into a lather. Rinse thoroughly.

2) Condition

After rinsing the Shampoo, apply the Detangling Conditioner to wet hair and gently rake through with your fingers or a wide-tooth comb to start the detangling process. Rinse and then gently scrunch the hair to reform the curls. If you don’t manage to fully detangle the curls during this step, don’t worry, we can work on this during step 3! 

3) Detangle

Apply the Magic Detangling Spray and gently detangle any large knots with fingers. Then use a detangling brush or a wide-tooth comb to gently ease the knots and ensure the hair is tangle-free. Start at the ends of the hair and move upwards. Once detangled, lightly spritz again and scrunch dry with a microfibre towel (or cotton t-shirt). 

4) Scrunch

Apply a small amount of the Leave-In Styler into the palm of your hand, spread between both hands and then scrunch into wet or damp curls. Air dry or gently diffuse to finish.

You can use the Detangling Spray in the mornings to neaten up dry curls.
