Good hydration for dry hair is essential to recover the shine and softness of curly hair. As type 4 locks (whether A, B or C) are naturally dry and tend to frizz and porosity, the treatment cannot be missing from the care routine and should be done once or twice a week. If you usually use a diffuser or expose yourself to the sun a lot, hydration is even more important, as exposure to heat stimulates the dryness of the hair.

But to have well-hydrated curly hair, the products and actives in the formulas make all the difference. After all, they are the ones who replenish the nutrients needed for the health of the hair. With that in mind, we've separated some tips on products and ingredients that are sure to hydrate dry curly hair. Write it down, diva!

Oils and butters are essential ingredients in the hydration mask for dry hair

Those with curly hair should use and abuse oils and butters in hydration for dry hair. These ingredients are rich in lipids, a nutrient that restores the oiliness of the locks, helping to fight the dry, rough and dull appearance. One of the best hair butters (and also one of the easiest to find in moisturizing masks) is shea butter. Rich in fatty acids, vitamin A and vitamin E, it acts as a hair revitalizer, offering hydration and deep nutrition.

As for oils, the list of possibilities is long, but to recover dry hair, linseed oil is a sure bet. Although it is less famous than coconut oil and argan oil, this ingredient is powerful, as it is rich in omega 6 and 3 that replenish the oiliness of the hair fiber, promoting softness, shine and silkiness for the locks.

Diva tip: if separated these ingredients are great, imagine together? Therefore, our hydration mask tip for dry curly hair is Niely's Cachos do Seu Jeito Deep Hydration Mask, which combines linseed oil and shea butter for more nourished, resistant, soft and healthy hair.

Shampoo and conditioner should be highly moisturizing if you have dry curly hair.

Those who want to have curly hair free of dryness should also pay attention to the choice of shampoo and conditioner. After all, these two products are also part of the capillary hydration routine. Moisturizing ingredients rich in lipids are fundamental in the composition of these products, as they provide a smoother cleaning, preventing the locks from becoming more dry and rigid during washing, in addition to helping to enhance the effect of the mask.

Like the moisturizing mask, the shampoo and conditioner from the Cachos do Seu Jeito line have linseed oil and shea butter in their composition. That's why they are good options to start your hydration routine for dry hair, helping to recover the health of the strands and retain the necessary oiliness to combat the dry and lifeless appearance.

The combing cream helps prolong the hydration effect on dry curly hair

Speaking of retaining the oiliness of the hair, the combing cream is another item that will help with this task. In addition to helping to detangle, define and style curly hair, the combing cream also creates a protective film around the strands, which prevents nutrient loss and minimizes damage caused by external agents, such as sunlight, humidity and pollution. With this, the hydration effect is prolonged and you have silky and shiny hair for longer.

To get all these benefits, finish your hydration for dry hair with a product rich in nourishing ingredients, such as Creme de Pentear Cachos do Seu Jeito. In addition to the moisturizing action of shea butter and the nourishing linseed oil, its formula contains a UV filter, anti-frizz action, anti-pollution and thermal protection to keep the strands 100% protected from the sun and the diffuser. Thus, in addition to retaining oiliness and sealing hydration in the strands, you prevent them from drying out again.
