Why this curly hair routine Egypt guide works
Egypt mums, mornings are fast, humid, and a little chaotic. This curly hair routine Egypt plan keeps it simple: a quick water spritz, a palm of leave-in, a light layer of gel, and a short diffuse or air-dry—so your child (or you) leaves on time with soft, defined curls that resist Cairo frizz.
Curly Hair Routine Egypt: 5-Minute Steps
You’ll use leave-in and gel for definition that stands up to Cairo humidity. Keep a microfiber towel and clips ready.
- Mist hair with water or refresh spray; section into two to four parts.
- Work a small amount of leave-in through each section from mid-lengths to ends.
- Glaze a light layer of gel over the surface, then scrunch upward to encourage curl clumps (avoid heavy raking).
- Diffuse on low heat/low speed for 2–3 minutes or air-dry while getting dressed.
- Once dry, gently scrunch to break the gel cast for a soft, shiny finish.
