Why is my curly hair straight at the root?

Probably its because of the difference in the amount of moisture on a hair shaft at the two places. At the roots, the oil from sebaceous glands of the scalp-skin is more readily available to the hair than at the ends, and as is obvious, higher oil content of the hair shaft smoothes it out at the roots.

What does it mean when your curly hair turns straight?

Simply gather some Duck clips and grab curls from the roots and clip them upwards. This allows you to create the volume you want, and then hold it in place with the clip while wet and covered with product. Once your hair is dry, remove the clips, and you will find your hair stays in the position you desired — and you’ll no longer have flat roots!

Are your roots too flat for curly hair?

Having gorgeous curls at the mid-length and ends of your hair is all well and good, but when the roots are flat, you have no volume or bounce, and often, not even the desire to embrace your curls with confidence. This is an issue that mainly affects curlies with looser, wavy textures.

Why do my curls have dull roots?

Heavy hair products will naturally weigh your curls down, and this can lead to dull roots. Less product will allow flexibility in the hair. I recommend trying out lighter leave-in conditioners, or switching to a product that is water-based instead of heavier products like a hair butter.

How can I Make my curly hair less limp?

Gently squeeze your hair upward from the ends towards the roots. Scrunching hair is a curly girl’s best friend to combat limpness. If possible, hold your head upside down over while you scrunch in a styling product, as this will fully distribute the product and increase texture formation at the roots.
