Every type of hair projects its unique beauty and appeal. Knowing your hair type is essential to understand how to care for it correctly. Type 1 hair typically cover kinds of straight hair. Type 2 hair, on the other hand, flaunts a wavy facade. Type 3 hair is inclined to different looks of curly hair. Lastly, type 4 has a coiling or frizzy exterior. 

Hairstyling is every girls’ hobby. Hairstyling adds a little bit of spice to your daily lookbook. However, constant hairstyling can significantly damage your hair. Using straightening or curling iron every day makes your hair dull, lifeless and unhealthy.

Heatless curls will not impair or diminish the quality of your hair while giving you the freedom to customise the size and the type of wave or curl you want. Lastly, you can do it before you get your good night sleep and wake up with gorgeous looking hair.
