Coils thrive on consistent moisture, low-manipulation styling and clear, color-coded steps. Keep hair saturated as you apply, work in sections, and let definition set—shrinkage is healthy.
Deeply hydrate: gentle cleanse + rich conditioner; deep condition weekly (or as needed).
Detangle in sections with plenty of slip (fingers or wide-tooth comb).
Apply on soaking-wet hair, section by section: leave-in → cream → gel to define and seal.
Define your pattern: twists/braids, shingling or finger coils for uniform clumps.
Dry gently: air-dry or diffuse on low/cool; avoid high heat and heavy brushing.
Reduce shrinkage (optional): banding, twist-outs or braid-outs—no excessive tension.
Protect nightly: satin bonnet/pillowcase; re-twist or pineapple to preserve shape; refresh with a water/leave-in mist + a touch of cream/gel.
