Make comb coils

Step by step

1. 

   STEP 1 OF 3

   Isolate a freely detangled section

   • Begin on damp detangled loose hair after any chosen label-directed preparation. Check that the comb has smooth intact teeth.
   • Separate a small reachable tuft and keep neighboring hair aside. If the comb cannot pass through freely, detangle separately before shaping.
2. 

   STEP 2 OF 3

   Rotate and slide the comb out

   • Catch only the isolated tuft with the comb teeth near its base, clear of skin. Keep the root relaxed and the rest of the hair out of the teeth.
   • Rotate the comb gently as you move toward the tip, guiding the free end with your other hand if needed. Do not wind hair around the comb body.
   • Slide the teeth clear of the tip to release the coil. For a catch, stop and gently reverse the last movement; never tug the comb out.

   STEP 3 OF 3

   Let the coil dry and release later

   • Let the coil rest and air-dry. Remove any sectioning clips and put the comb aside; do not keep tightening the root as it dries.
   • When you want to undo the style, ease the spiral apart with your fingers from the free end toward the root. Do not comb through an intact tight coil.
   • If it resists, stop dry handling and use your usual label-directed wash, conditioning and detangling process. Clear shed hair from the comb and clean it as directed.
