Little Curls FAQs: Everything you need to know

After receiving thousands of requests for products developed specifically for kids, we decided that it was a much needed addition to our Only Curls range. With many curls (and children) between us at Only Curls HQ, we understand the tangles and the tantrums and have spent the past 2 years devising a simple routine for Little Curls.

We want kids to LOVE their curls.

Here's everything you need to know about our newest collection...

The range is:

-Suitable from 6 month+

-Mild and Gentle

-Dermatologically tested

-98% naturally derived

-Scented with a 99% natural and allergen free fragrance

We've chosen ingredients including Aloe Vera, Mallow, Coconut and Avocado to leave curls moisturised, clean, shiny and healthy.

Apply the Super Shampoo to wet hair and gently massage into a lather. Rinse thoroughly.

Apply the Detangling Conditioner to cleansed, wet hair and gently rake through with your fingers to start the detangling process. Rinse.

Spritz the Magic Detangling Spray onto hair and gently detangle with fingers, a brush or a comb. Once detangled, lightly spritz again and scrunch curls into shape. Use a microfibre towel to scrunch dry and speed up the drying process.

Apply a small amount of the Leave-In Styler into the palm of your hand, spread between both hands and then scrunch into wet or damp curls. Air-dry (or gently diffuse) to finish.

Curls can take a long time to dry. Remove excess water and speed up drying time by scrunch drying with a microfibre towel. Do this after applying the Magic Detangling Spray and before you scrunch in the Leave-In Styler.

Curls can get tangled. When you are conditioning, start the detangling process and break up any big tangles gently with your fingers.

After rinsing out the conditioner, pop a towel over their shoulders, spritz with the Magic Detangling Spray and comb through gently using a wide tooth comb. Start with the ends first and work upwards.

Don't dry brush curls. This will break up all the curls and cause frizz. Instead, between washes spritz lightly with the Magic Detangling Spray and use your hands to detangle, scrunch and twist the curls back into shape.

They are safe from 3 months plus, but we recommend the range for children aged over 6 months as the products and routine is more suitable for this age group.

We have aimed to simplify the routine for the routine for children, so the step by step method is different to Only Curls. The products themselves are different formulas and feel lighter on the hair with less hold, our aim for Little Curls was to create hydrated and natural looking curls. 

They have a higher percentage of naturally derived ingredients (Little Curls is 98% naturally derived), we have removed nut oils* from the Little Curls products. We chose to include fragrance in the kids range as children loved it. It is a fresh, fruity fragrance that is 99% naturally derived and allergen free.

*note that the products do contain coconut, which although classed as a fruit in the UK,  it is classed as a tree nut in the US. So if you have any concern about coconut  we recommend that you speak with your GP before using the products.

For the launch we only have 200ml size available (full size bottles). We will aim to create 100ml travel size bottles for our second batch.

The fragrance we use is 99% naturally derived and allergen free. It smells fresh and fruit and kids love it!

All our Little Curls products have been dermatologically tested and gentle, so they are suitable for sensitive scalps. However as a precautionary measure we would always recommend a patch test before using on children. Please also check our full ingredients list if your child has allergies.

The products are 100% vegan.

We do not test our products or any ingredients on animals.

All Little Curls products are formulated to be gentle. However as a precaution, we always recommend for a patch test to be carried out at last 24 hours prior to the first use of the products, especially on sensitive skin.
