Have you been procrastinating? We all do it. Wash day can sometimes feel all too overwhelming and you put it off like hitting snooze on your alarm clock. But hit snooze one too many times and your hair will reward you with dry, undefined curls and coils with no shape or bounce. When NaturallyCurly editors Evelyn and Nikki skipped a few wash days their hair got a little… out of control. They have two different hair types so it took a few different products and techniques to bring them back to the Evelyn and Nikki we know and love, but you can watch how they transform an old ‘do into something fancy and new with the new Design Essentials Coconut and Monoi line.
Evelyn’s routine:
- Evelyn sprayed her hair with Coconut & Monoi Coconut Water Curl Refresher to make her fro more pliable and softened it up for styling
- Next she applied Coconut & Monoi Deep Moisture Milk Creme throughout her hair (starting with the back and sides”>, two strand twisting her hair in small sections
- Set the hair overnight
- Evelyn used Coconut & Monoi Intense Shine Oil Mist to take down her twists for an added boost of shine
- She gently separated the twists, then used a pick to create more volume
Nikki’s routine:
- Nikki used a spray bottle to saturate her hair with water, to moisturize and prep it for styling
- She applied Coconut & Monoi Deep Moisture Milk Souffle in 3-4 sections, two strand twisting her hair 8 medium-sized twists with a bantu knot at the ends
- She sealed the moisture into her hair with Coconut & Monoi Deep Moisture Oil Treatment, a little goes a long way
- Set the hair overnight
- Nikki used Coconut & Monoi Intense Shine Oil Mist to gently unravel her twists for an added boost of shine
- Then she fluffed out her hair and used a wide tooth comb at the roots to give her hair a lift
