Why Hydration is Key
Curly hair naturally tends to be dry due to its structure. Proper hydration is essential and often overlooked. It simply means the ability of your hair to absorb and retain water. The juicy curls you see on social media are likely better hydrated. The Primer keeps your curls hydrated and preps them for using curly accessories and tools.
Step 1: Apply Primer
Start with the TréLuxe Primer. First things first—hydrate! Applying water before your products is crucial. The TréLuxe Primer is designed to absorb and retain water, ensuring your curls shine and feel lightweight. It does the same job of a hair cream, without the weight. No more heavy creams weighing you down! See more on Primer here.
Step 2: Apply Mousse
Next up—the TréLuxe Mousse. This product adds volume and bounce without weighing down your curls. By applying the Mousse, you add structure and volume, keeping your curls bouncy and full. Scrunch it in for the best results. Avoid brushing after applying the mousse as it might make your curls look wonky.
Step 3: Apply Gel
Seal the style with the TréLuxe Hi Definition Gel. This step locks in moisture and adds a shiny, defined finish. The Gel ensures all the moisture from the Primer and Mousse stays locked in, giving your curls that shiny, defined look.

PRO TIPS for Shiny Curls
Manage Frizz with Soft Water
Adding water before styling helps hydrate the hair, making it more manageable and enhancing the natural curl pattern. This step is crucial for better definition and reduced frizz.
Less is More
When it comes to curly hair styling products, less is more. Too many products can weigh down your curls, making them look flat. A small amount of high-quality, hydrating products can enhance the natural texture and bounce. Opt for products free from harsh chemicals and sulfates to avoid dryness and frizz.
Results
My coarse hair appreciates this combination a lot! Especially since its so naturally dull. These products bring out the shine, and helps take the weight off my heavy curls. I recommend this combo for all hair types. However, for fine or low density hair you will find rinsing off the Primer better. I leave it in. Check out this other routine for fine curls.
