Shakira Serving Waves with Curlsmith

Shakira's hair drew the attention off the court at Wimbledon to her beautifully defined locks. Renowned for embracing her natural texture, she did not disappoint on this occasion with the help of Curlsmith products. Even though she wasn't center court, it's safe to say that it was game, set, match for her flawless waves.


Hairstylist @LiamCurran wanted to add moisture, definition, and shine to Shakira's tresses. With the help of our Miracle Shield protectant mist, Effortless Waves moisturising styling spray, and Shine Oil, Curran achieved his desired hair goals for the occasion.


To get the look, follow this easy step-by-step guide. 


Step 1

Wash your hair with a sulfate-free shampoo to gently remove dirt and build-up, like our Essential Moisture cleanser. The moisture-rich shampoo is kind to your curls and increases hydration up to 87%. This frequent-use cleanser is suitable for all curl types and textures.


Step 2

Condition your tresses to add moisture and assist with detangling. Our Essential Moisture conditioner is lightweight in texture but rich in moisture. The slip provided by the creamy texture makes detangling effortless. Let the conditioner sit in your hair for 1-2 minutes before rinsing to receive the full benefits from the juicy ingredients.


Step 3 

Moisturise your hair using a leave-in conditioner like our Weightless Air Dry Cream. The lightweight texture easily glides throughout your tresses to moisturise, encourage curls clumps, and prime the hair before the styler. 


Step 4

Apply heat protection to your tresses to keep your curls strong and healthy throughout the drying process. Our Miracle Shield is the perfect product for providing protection up to 450F (235c). In addition, Miracle Shield protects your hair from natural aggressors such as UV rays, sea salt, chlorine, and color fading. The protein-enriched weightless mist is suitable for all hair types and textures.


Step 5

Select your desired styler to moisturise, enhance and define. For Shakira's waves Curran selected Effortless Waves containing key ingredients such as Chia seeds and Linseeds to enhance and define without that crunchy, sticky feeling. The styler provides body and shape to your waves while reducing frizz, and the invisible hold allows your waves to flow effortlessly without compromising on volume.

 

Step 6

Diffuse your hair with our curl-loving Defrizzion Dryer and 8-inch XXL diffuser. Our dryer has specifically been designed with curls in mind to ensure minimal damage when drying your locks. Use the hover method to allow your waves to dry as they are. Once your tresses are 100% dry, apply our Shine Oil to seal the cuticles, tame frizz, and add weightless shine. This fragrance-free oil is suitable for all of our curl friends, including those with sensitivities.
