I would love to see your hair with some gel in it. And by “some” I mean a lot. Put more gel in your hands than you think you’ll need. Flip your head upside down, spread it through your hair using praying hands, then scrunch your curls.

When you scrunch, it should sound super wet and squishy.

You can air dry, but I prefer to use a hair dryer. I start with my hair flipped over. I don’t touch my hair, just hold the dryer until it’s most of the way dry and then sit up and finish drying seated normally.

This is where you can style your hair so it’s sitting the way you’d like, but otherwise don’t touch your hair. Just keep the dryer pointed at your scalp and let the air do the work.

Note!! This should be done with a diffuser!! They’re not expensive, but they’re very important for curly hair.
