Soft but textured hair?

Hi guys,

I have medium length dark brown hair which springs upwards in slight curls...i.e. not straight and droopy.

Whenever I shower myself (i.e. every night), my hair of course becomes nice and soft and silky. However, it becomes just one uniform mass of hair, kind of afro style except less so.

Whenever I put Fudge Matte Hed into my hair, it makes it nice and textured and cool and sexy. However, my hair of course becomes sticky and hard and doesnt feel nice.

However, how can I get this effect that I get from gel and wax (i.e. nicely styled and textured) etc...but keep my hair feeling soft and silky?

That is to say, how can I get soft but textured hair?

Or is it impossible? Is it just something I have to live with, if I want textured hair) being a boy with my kind of hair?

Thanks for any help!!

Going to bed with wet uncombed hair does you no favours.

Dry it before you go to bed, or spray your hair with water in the morning.

It sounds like wax would be more suitable for your hair, make sure you only use a little and rub it into your fingers first to warm it up, if you have long hair, then use serum.

Hope this helps

curly hair is hardest to maintain. The best way is to get it layered (sorry but...)

Also you need to experiment with different shampoos, many are catered to hair like yours but when your hair gets used to a shampoo it isn't as effective (so change your brand every 6months or year or so).

When you hair is setting blow dry gently- do not comb through. The "wind" will make your hair touch soft. Try using pure aloe vera gel too
