Experiment with different styles
Part of embracing your hair's natural texture and body is knowing how to style it. So, if you're ready to put down the heat-styling devices, spend some time in front of the mirror trying out different styles.
Do you usually straighten your curls? Try a messy updo! Do you usually tease your thin hair? Try a fun braid. Keep an eye out when you run errands or are at work for how others with similar hair are styling their hair and give those looks a shot. You might discover that you like something you didn't expect.
Consider making smaller changes
If you're putting a lot of effort into changing your hair's look and texture every day or every week, it may be time to consider what exactly it is that you've been trying to change. Is it frizz when it's humid? Unruly curls? Lack of volume? You can then talk to a stylist about how to address those preferences in smaller ways, rather than drastic ones that may be damaging your hair.
Try out product that enhances your natural hair
Products don't need to be used just to change the nature texture and body of your hair—they can also help you enhance it! If you have curls, a curl-enhancing mousse or gel will help bring out that texture while also keeping it under control. If your hair is on the thinner side, a volume-enhancing shampoo and conditioner combo may be best for your haircare routine.
Ask your stylist for styling tips
