As an alternative to our natural kinks, naturalists are known to get a good blowout and use an iron to achieve a straight look from time to time. While the versatility is great, the heat can cause you to lose your natural pattern over time. Eventually, you may even realize that your curl pattern is completely damaged or that your hair won’t curl at all.
The good thing is, there’s a solution to this common issue among naturally curly girls. If this has happened to you, Julia hair and beauty online has a few quick tips to help you retrieve your natural curl pattern.

Discontinue Using Heat
This is the most obvious tip, but you’d be surprised at how many natural women think using flat irons on a low temperature won’t cause as much damage. That tip may be true for some, but the most honest way to get your curl pattern back will mean divorcing all curling irons, flat irons, and any other sources of heat. I’d also even suggest allowing your hair to air dry instead of using a blow dryer. Your 100% good human hair weave is in a damaged state and adding heat will only further damage your hair, not repair it, no matter the temperature. Also, avoid placing your hair in ponytails or any other styles that will cause strain to your hair.
Protective styles
When your hair is suffering from heat damage, protective hairstyles may be your saving grace. During the phase of reviving your curl pattern, you may find it hard to style. Wearing protective hairstyles will allow the damaged ends of your Brazilian virgin hair with closure to grow out. This is the perfect time for you to try those cute Marley twists, box braids, two strand twists and other trendy protective styles you can style different ways yourself. Also, in between changing protective styles, it’s imperative you go see a professional stylist and allow them to trim your ends. We want to cut off the damaged hair and nurture the new growth.
Home Remedies
Don’t underestimate the power of a good home remedy when restoring your curl pattern. The well-known protein treatment of an egg, a teaspoon of olive oil, and a few tablespoons of mayonnaise makes for good restoration. You may want to complete this treatment an hour before leaving the house, because the mayonnaise smell tends to linger for about an hour. If you’ve become a victim of thinning hair from heat damage, buy castor oil to message into your scalp and down to your ends three times a week. You’ll definitely see the difference.
Patience
Depending on how often you’ve straightened your hair, this won’t be the easiest process. Be patient and realize that it could take up to a year to nurse your hair back to health. Don’t freak out if you aren’t seeing immediate results. If you feel as though trying to restore your natural curl on your own isn’t working, reach out to your stylist to opt in for treatments and additional advice.
