This is surely a good advice, however, long hair is even more difficult to manage. Also, short hair, when cut properly, can give an easily manageable style and is easier to take care of. Short and curly tresses tend to have a better texture as it is easy to condition compared to long hair.
No matter which hairstyle you choose, it is important to remember some hair care basics. Shampoo your mane regularly to keep it clean, as unwashed hair looks greasy and makes your curls look heavy. If you have extremely curly tresses, it is important to always use your fingertips to comb them instead of a brush. A big-toothed comb can be used if your hair is medium curly or wavy. Women with short and curly mane need to follow regular conditioning too. So, choose a good conditioner that suits you. Also, apply a hair mask once or twice a month to keep your curls in optimum shape. If the hair is very dry, consider using a serum or leave-in-conditioner to style it in a better way.
