Kinky hair (of Type 4 hair) is the curliest hair type of all. It is quite fine and fragile by nature with a clear Z pattern. It is also the driest hair type so it needs plenty of moisture. Richer oil-based products are key to maintain the strands bouncy, healthy and defined.

Step 1: Divide wet hair into sections and smooth our Curl Conditioning Oil-In-Cream through. Do not rinse out. Excellent for TWA’S, wash & go, L.O.C or L.C.O method, braids and twist outs. Follow with the Souffle or the Fixer (or both!) to finish off your style. Doesn’t flake, non-greasy, non-crunchy.

Step 2: Use our In-Shower Style Fixer on soaking wet hair, right out the shower (or you can keep it in the shower to complete your routine quicker than usual!). Take a dime sized amount per hair section. Rub it between your palms first. Smooth down the length of the hair, using the “praying hands” method. Scrunch gently upwards, then air dry or diffuse. When fully dry, scrunch again to break the cast.

Step 3: THIN, LOW POROSITY HAIR: use our Intense Treatment Serum as a pre-poo. Melt a tablespoon in the microwave and apply evenly. Leave to sink in for 30 minutes or overnight, then wash off. THICK, HIGH POROSITY HAIR: use our Intense Treatment Serum as a leave-in. Scrunch through the hair to break the cast created by strong hold gels, or smooth through the strands to seal ends and add shine. HACK! Warm a little in the microwave and use as a ‘hot oil’ treatment
