Choosing products for curly hair isn’t just about the promise of perfectly defined curls or a pretty picture on the packaging. Wavy, curly or coily hair can lack hydration, nutrition, volume or hold depending on the season, your hair’s porosity and your styling habits. In the UK, ambient humidity can also make frizz worse, while indoor heating tends to dry out the lengths.
Before you fill your basket, it’s worth keeping three common pitfalls in mind.
When choosing a shampoo for curly hair, look at the cleansing agents and the recommended frequency of use. A sulphate-free formula can work if you’re after a gentler wash, provided it cleanses the scalp sufficiently. The ENERGIE FRUIT Curl Nourishing Shampoo is described as sulphate-free and silicone-free, with coconut oil and shea butter. Apply it to wet hair, massaging the scalp and lengths before rinsing.
Hair that gets greasy quickly may need more frequent washes and a lightweight texture. Conversely, very dry or coily hair will often benefit from less frequent cleansing, paired with a detangling treatment.
A nourishing mask for curly hair is typically used once or twice a week, after shampooing. The ENERGIE FRUIT Coconut & Shea Butter mask contains shea butter, coconut oil and panthenol. Its formula is said to have 97% naturally derived ingredients and is silicone-free. Leave it on for a few minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
To avoid a helmet-like effect or flat hair, start with a small amount on the mid-lengths and ends. Fine hair can reserve the mask for the driest areas, while thick or highly porous hair can apply it more generously.
Curl definition often comes from combining a cream, a gel or a mousse. A leave-in cream for curly hair adds flexibility and makes styling easier. A curl-defining gel helps maintain the shape, while a styling mousse for curls can give volume with a lighter finish.
Apply products to damp hair, distribute them in sections, then scrunch the lengths towards the roots. Air-drying or using a diffuser on a moderate temperature avoids over-handling your hair. Between washes, an anti-frizz spray can help revive curls and tame rebellious strands.

Why this choice suits this profile: This leave-in spray can be used on dry or slightly damp hair. It makes touch-ups easy in the morning or when humidity brings out the frizz.

We’ve put together a complete selection, updated in real time, of products that meet these demanding criteria and European safety regulations.
Start with a simple routine: a suitable shampoo, a mask once or twice a week, and a styling product to define the curls. Apply the treatment to wet hair, then use a small amount of gel, mousse or leave-in cream. Gradually adjust the amounts to avoid weighing your hair down.
No. A nourishing mask for curly hair can be used once or twice a week, depending on how dry and thick your hair is. For other washes, a small amount of detangling treatment may be enough. If your curls lose volume, space out the rich treatments.
Work on thoroughly wet hair, distribute the product in sections and avoid touching your hair while it dries. A mousse generally gives a light hold and volume, while a gel offers stronger hold. For touch-ups, an anti-frizz spray or a fine mist of water is often more practical than another generous dose of product.
