What is a Capillary Schedule – And Why Your Hair Might Love It

Have you ever heard of a capillary schedule? If the term sounds unfamiliar or you’re not quite sure if it’s something your hair needs, this article is for you. Quick, informative, and straight to the point — let’s break down what it is and why so many people (especially those with curly or textured hair) are embracing it as part of their regular hair care routine.

Where did it come from?

The capillary schedule — or cronograma capilar — originated in Brazil has become a staple in many people’s hair care routine over there. It’s a structured approach that rotates between three essential treatments: hydration, nutrition, and reconstruction. The goal is to restore and maintain your natural hair balance, addressing common issues like dryness, breakage, and lack of shine.

But it’s not just about fixing problems — it’s about transforming your hair. When done consistently, a capillary schedule can bring hair back to life: leaving it stronger, softer, shinier, and full of bounce.

Who is it for?

According to Thais Pantingas, Creative Director and Owner of Taïs Hair Studio, and founder of Amor Curls — a hair care line made especially for curly and coily hair textures — a capillary schedule can benefit almost every hair type, especially those that are dry, brittle, colour-treated, or damaged from heat or environmental stress.

But curly and textured hair types in particular thrive with this method. That’s because this hair type tends to be naturally dry and more fragile, with open cuticles it is prone to breakage. A capillary schedule helps restore moisture, smoothness, and that healthy, springy look we all love.

In-salon or at-home routine?

While the capillary schedule is a common at-home ritual in Brazil, it’s gaining popularity around the world — including right here in Australia. Many people reserve part of their weekend as a self-care moment to dedicate to their hair routine, and the results speak for themselves.

At Taïs Hair Studio, the experience goes beyond a simple treatment — it’s a true moment of care and restoration, a Curl Therapy. We start with a hair analysis to understand what your hair truly needs: hydration, nutrition, or reconstruction. From there, we prepare your hair at the basin with a detox ritual and apply the treatment (from Brazil) customised to your current hair condition and the capilary schedule. To enhance absorption and results, we use a micro mist treatment, which allows the active ingredients to deeply penetrate the strands.

The outcome? Visible and immediate improvement: softer, shinier, and stronger hair — even after just one session. It’s a relaxing ritual with real impact.

Let us do it for you! What is the Taïs Curl Therapy?

Curl Therapy  is a unique, three-step treatment that nourishes, hydrates, and strengthens your curls—leaving them looking glossy, healthy, and full of life. Inspired by Brazil’s capillary schedule (or cronograma capilar), this treatment follows a proven method of giving your hair the love and attention it deserves, using only the best products suited for your hair type.

Step 1: Hydration (Hidratação) – The Refresh Your Curls Step

First up, we’ll hydrate your hair, ensuring your curls are never thirsty again. This step is all about moisture—because thirsty curls just don’t have the bounce! We’ll use hydrating masks packed with nourishing ingredients like aloe vera, coconut water, and glycerin, leaving your curls feeling soft and luscious.

Step 2: Nutrition (Nutrição) – The Nourish Your Curls Step

Next, it’s time to treat your curls to a hearty meal. Like your skin, your hair also needs vitamins and oils to keep it looking its best. We’ll apply rich oils (think argan, olive, or coconut oil) that deeply nourish and condition your curls, making them softer, shinier, and healthier overall. Your curls will thank you for the love!

Step 3: Reconstruction (Reconstrução) – The Strengthen Your Curls Step

Finally, we restore strength to your curls. Whether your hair has been through too much heat styling or just needs a little pick-me-up, this step adds proteins like keratin to repair and reinforce your curls. This step brings your curls back to life, making them stronger and more resilient to everyday wear and tear.

The result? Curls that feel softer, look shinier, and bounce beautifully — right from the first session.

Why is Curl Therapy So Amazing?

Curl Therapy isn’t just a quick fix—it’s a long-term solution for anyone who wants to embrace their natural curls and keep them looking gorgeous. By following the capillary schedule, we customize the treatment to your hair’s unique needs, making sure it gets exactly what it requires to thrive.

Plus, no more excess frizz! No more dry, limp curls! Just bouncy, shiny, and healthy hair that you can rock with confidence.

When will you see results?

That’s the exciting part. You may notice a difference in your hair’s texture, hydration, and shine within the first week. Many people feel so encouraged by the early improvements that they stick with the schedule long-term.

A study by the Brazilian Trichology Association (ABT) showed that 87% of people who followed a capillary schedule for at least two months reported significant improvement in softness, shine, and hair strength.

So, whether you’re trying to recover from a bit of hair damage or just want to elevate your hair care game, a capillary schedule might be the missing piece. It’s not just a routine — it’s a ritual of care that leaves you feeling good and your hair looking its best.
