1. Do a deep treatment to prepare your hair before shampooing.
2. Wash your hair in sections to reduce tangling and re-twist each section after washing. Massage Curls Spring Loaded Detangling Shampoo into your scalp and smooth through the length of your hair, then rinse.
3. Smooth the Full Circle Leave-in Treatment through your hair, working in sections.
4. Apply Twirl Around Crunch-Free Curl Definer to your hair in sections. Divide the section you are working with into more manageable sections, and then two-strand twist these smaller sections.
5. Wrap the end of each twist around a curler. Use bobby pins to pin down your roots if they are puffy.
6. Tie a satin scarf around the edge of of your hair to keep your edges smooth.
7. Let your hair dry overnight or sit under the dryer.
8. When your hair is completely dry, remove the curlers and undo the twists. Then, separate the twists, fluffing at your roots to shape your hair and hide the parts.
