Wristbands at the ready, festival season is finally here! If like us, you want to spend more time enjoying the headliners on the main stage and soaking up the sun, than worrying about your curls, then don't worry. We have a few simple hairstyles and hair care tips that will give you more time on the dance floor, whilst delivering healthy definition, shine and moisture to your curls.
Before the festival
First things first, let’s take care of your curly crown before you head out of the door with your suitcase and tackle any style.
You want to make sure your hair is clean and prepped for your style. This includes washing, a good conditioner or deep conditioner, and a styler.
Our Protect Me collection will prep and protect your curls for any style, creating the perfect routine for your curls and shielding them from external agents. So there’s no need to worry while being out in the sun.
Step 1: Wash with our African Citrus Superfruit Shampoo.
Step 2: Deep condition with the African Citrus Superfruit Radiance Mask for shine and vibrancy.
(If you prefer something more hydrating, why not try our Rose Water & Honey Molasses Moisture Mask. Or if you are not in need of a deep condition and want something lighter, our Rose Water & Honey Cream Conditioner will do just the trick).
Step 3: Prime and style your curls with your Rose Water & Honey Leave-In Detangler, and any of your favourite Flora & Curl stylers from our Style Me collection.
Flora & Curl Tip: If you want to take that extra step, why not prime your scalp before washing with the Coconut Mint Scalp Refresh Pre-Shampoo Oil to prevent your scalp from drying out and melt away dirt and product build up.
During the festival
While you dance the days away, our Mini Essentials Curl Kit is the perfect handy travel sized selection of curly essentials to keep your curls hydrated, in shape and defined. Each product can fit neatly into your bag without weighing it down. So you can continue to have fun, while keeping your curls in check.
Flora & Curl Tip: If your hair seems to always fall in your face, our Large and Small Satin Scrunchies are gentle enough to care for your curls without disturbing your style.

Now’s the time to give your hair some TLC. Just like after a protective style, you will want to wash and treat your curls, especially if you were able to catch some rays during your festival.
Our Coconut Mint Curl Refresh Clay Wash is the perfect 2-in-1 clarifying yet conditioning treatment to reset your scalp and curls.
