Tips for getting into a curly routine?

[MinaYes]

I have curly hair and I use Verb products when I get out of the shower and add my curl cream I look amazing. I would wash my hair about every other day. But I've been  meaning to get into a curly hair routine after I damaged my hair with dying and flat ironing. I want to make what's there strong and I want the new hair to grow very healthy.

The trouble is a lot of the routines I looked up suggest that I wash my hair ONCE a week. My day 2 hair might look okay but after that it all just looks bad. the curls get crushed from sleeping and I end up wearing a lot of hats and hiding it. Which I hate because when my hair looks good it looks GOOD which right after showering, but I do care about the health of my hair and want to make one or two wash days work.

If you aren't doing this already put your hair up in a loose bun on the top of your head and wrap it it a silk scarf or use a silk pillowcase when you sleep

l absolutely love Olaplex for curly hair. stand alone treatments at your salon, followed by olaplex #3 weekly, will help your curls tremendously. I also use a pea size amount of olaplex #3, after shampoo, and leave in. I layer leave in and curl/hairspray on top.
