Build a wash-and-go technique suited to waves, curls or coils rather than following one universal method. The goal is to enhance your natural pattern while ensuring longevity.
Customizing the Method
For waves, focus on lightweight products and “plopping” to encourage lift. For tighter curls and coils, the “shingling” or “raking” method ensures every strand is coated for maximum definition. The secret is starting with soaking wet hair to lock in as much hydration as possible before the drying process begins.
