Hi, I’m Hilary Erickson from The Pregnancy Nurse. How can I help?
The closest thing I have to a “definitive guide” is my 2014 Pulling Curls post on how I style my curly hair. Here’s the core routine:
- Wash with shampoo rarely (about monthly), mainly for my itchy scalp
- “Wash” 2x/week with a very thick, moisturizing conditioner (Aussie or similar)
- Comb only in the shower with a wide‑tooth comb
- Don’t fully rinse out the conditioner, just the roots
- Gently squeeze water out with a towel, no rubbing
- Immediately apply a moisture‑locking cream (like Hair CPR)
- Scrunch in a moderate‑hold gel with my head upside down and then air dry
Would you like me to adapt that routine for your curl type and hair length?
