Default Heat on curls for the last 6 yrs!!

Hi everyone,
I haven't worn my 3b curls for a very long time!!
I need help on how to start again! I don't even know if I should use Gel? Blow dry? Air dry. I'm completely lost! I want to love my curls so I will not go back to blow drying and flat ironing! Help!
Lisa~

Welcome, Lisalee72! Read through this thread: Start Here! All of the information can seem really overwhelming at first. I promise it will start to fall into place as you read and experiment. A quick answer to your questions: Many of us use gel and many of us either air dry or diffuse. It takes time, patience and trial and error to find the products and routine that will bring out the best in your curls. You'll find lots of help and support on these boards!

Try doing the curly girl method. MahoganyCurls on youtube does a lot of video about the method. It brings out the best of your curls.
