Notes:
- If you are in between shampoos, use the Complete Conditioning Co-Wash
- Using a t-shirt for drying is beneficial for texture and curls
- Be sure to use a holding agent (Twist & Loc Gel) to get more defined curls
- Use as much product as you’d like, excess product will purge as you twist
- Add an accessory (headband, head jewelry, etc.) to your twists and bun for an added touch of style
