THE KINKY COIL

The tightest of all curl types, kinky curls are made of zig-zag-shaped strands. The twists and turns of this curl type makes dehydration a constant risk - so they need all the moisture they can get. The key to keeping your hair strong is making sure that moisture is sealed into each strand. Load up on heavier butters and nourishing oils, and remember to keep that moisture sealed into each strand by using film forming humectants. Keeping your hair in protective styles such as twists, braids or bantu knots will also help your hair retain moisture for longer.

LOW POROSITY

Your hair cuticles are tightly packed together, so they struggle to absorb water and your hair takes a long time to dry. Products tend to sit on top of your hair, causing buildup. Use heat when applying your deep conditioner to open up your cuticles for better absorption. You should prioritise emollients over proteins and stick to lightweight, liquid-based products.

HIGH DENSITY

Also known as thick hair, high density means that your strands are tightly packed together and your scalp is not visible unless you pull sections of your hair apart. Use heavier creams, butters, or gels to hold your hair together, making sure you apply enough product to coat all strands evenly.

COARSE

These strands are the strongest hair texture, making them more resistant to damage and easier to maintain length. But coarse hair tends to be more prone to dryness, tangles and frizz. Make sure you’re using plenty of nourishing and moisture-boosting products with rich and creamy textures.
