Curls, Coils & Waves — Defined, Hydrated, Frizz-Free

Curly hair isn't one thing — it's a spectrum. Loose waves, springy 3a-3b curls, tight 4-pattern coils, and everything in between. What they share is a need for moisture, definition, and gentle cleansing that won't strip the natural oils your strands depend on for shape and shine.

ProHair carries the curl-care lines stylists actually reach for — DevaCurl, AG Care, L'Oréal Curl Expression, KMS Curl Up, milk_shake, All About Curls, and Alcove — covering everything from low-poo cleansers and creme conditioners to leave-ins, gels, and refresh sprays. Every product is sourced through authorized professional channels, the same way salons buy them.

Whether you're transitioning from heat damage, refining your wash-and-go, or building a routine for kids' textured hair, the products on this page are the ones we recommend most often — chosen for results on real Canadian water and humidity, not just marketing claims.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between low-poo, co-wash, and sulfate-free shampoo?
Sulfate-free shampoos use milder cleansers (cocamidopropyl betaine, glucosides) but still foam and cleanse. Low-poo shampoos go even gentler, cleansing without stripping. Co-wash is a conditioner-as-cleanser format — no foam, just slip and conditioning agents that lift dirt mechanically. Tighter curl patterns generally do better with co-wash or low-poo; looser waves can handle a sulfate-free shampoo.
Do I really need to do the curly-girl method to use these products?
No. The Curly Girl Method (Lorraine Massey's approach — no sulfates, no silicones, no heat) works for many people, but plenty of curl wearers use silicone serums and heat tools without issue. Pick products based on what your hair actually responds to, not on rule-following.
How often should I wash curly hair?
Most curl patterns do best with 1-3 washes per week. Tighter curls and coils often go 7+ days between full cleanses, using co-wash or refresh sprays in between. Listen to your scalp — itchy or oily means it's time.
Why do my curls look great wet but turn into frizz once dry?
Two common causes: not enough product hold (try a stronger gel or layered cream-then-gel), or breaking the cast too aggressively. Let curls air-dry or fully diffuse-dry to a hard cast first, then scrunch out the crunch with a drop of oil.
Are DevaCurl products safe? I read about hair loss issues.
DevaCurl reformulated their entire line in 2020 after the original concerns surfaced. The current formulas (post-2020 packaging) have addressed the issues raised in the class-action settlement. Many curl wearers continue to love the line — but everyone's hair is different. If you're sensitive, our staff can recommend alternatives.
Can I use a brush on curly hair?
Wide-tooth combs are safer than brushes for most curl patterns, but the Olivia Garden Detangler and Denman D3 are popular detanglers used in the shower with conditioner. Never brush curly hair dry — that's how you get a halo of frizz.
Do you ship curly-hair products across Canada?
Yes. We ship Canada-wide from Quebec, free over $99.99. Most orders arrive in 2-5 business days.
Which line is best for transitioning from heat damage?
Joico K-PAK (or Olaplex No.3 weekly) for the protein-moisture balance, layered with AG Re:coil or DevaCurl Supercream for daily styling. Heat-damaged curls need both repair and very moisturizing styling — protein alone makes the damage feel brittle.
