The little details

  1. 01 · Apply to the right hair condition

    Use a curl cream according to its directions, usually distributing a small amount through damp lengths.

  2. 02 · Try one motion

    Rake fingers through a section for separation, or cup the ends and scrunch upward to encourage clumps. Use the same amount when comparing.

  3. 03 · Let the shape set

    Allow hair to air-dry or diffuse as directed, handling it as little as practical. Results depend on the natural curl pattern and cut.
