Tamera Mowry-Housley is letting you in on her tricks for getting a shimmering crown of natural curls.
Tamera and her sister Tia fully embrace the versatility of their hair, switching between straight and curly styles like most people change shoes. When Tamera recently posted a pic of shining ringlets, we had to know her secret! Lucky for us, she shared some of her tips on her official blog!
Flip through to see what Tamera does. You might want to break out a heavy-duty white t-shirt for this!

1) Squeeze
If you want glossy, frizz-free curls like Tamera’s, for goodness sake stop using a towel. Immediately! Instead, the “Tia & Tamera” star advises that you use a t-shirt after washing your hair.
“When you finish your shower, squeeze your curls gently with a cotton tee (the thicker the more absorbent),” she wrote on her blog. “Move along in sections, from your scalp to the ends of your hair. I would dry each section of your hair only once, since doing it more than that can cause you to lose volume.”

2) Wrap
Once you’ve wrung most of the excess water from your hair, wrap it up! Again, Tamera advises that you avoid using a towel for this.
“Flip your head over and use the t-shirt like you would normally use a towel to turban-wrap your hair,” Tamera wrote. “An easy way is to place the bottom of the t-shirt at the nape of your neck, and slowly twist up until you reach the end. Then, just tuck the end underneath the part that’s framing your face!”

3) Wait
Patience is a virtue, but this next part is largely up to your own discretion.
“This step varies for each person–some people wait five minutes and some keep it on for up to 15. It just depends on your hair,” Tamera instructs. “However long you would normally keep a towel around your head will work for a t-shirt too.”

4) Style
Now that your hair is dry, you can proceed with styling as normally would!
Gently unwrap the t-shirt turban and style as you would normally. If you have any leave-in conditioners or oils, now is the time to use them.
