Let's take a closer look... the natural texture of
Coil Curl hair extensions by Melanj Hair are tightly coiled, curls that are made to blend with type 4 hair. This versatile texture can be braided, twisted and stretched using a blow dryer, which we will see in this style guide. The UltraSlim V-part wig cap has clips along the perimeter and a thick adjustable band at the nape of the wig, allowing for easy installation and a secure fit. The wig caps are created using an open weft concept, making it super breathable and lightweight when wearing.
- step 1 -
To prep the style, Candace starts by stretching the hair using a low to medium heat setting on a handheld blow dryer. This is where you can really begin to see the versatility of the hair and how it truly mimics natural hair.... raise your hand if this is what your hair looks like when blow dried! [Disclaimer: It is recommended to use a heat protectant when applying heat to your hair extensions to preserve the natural curl pattern]
- step 2 -
Using a 1.5-2" curling wand, wrap small sections of hair around the barrel to create loose, textured waves. Keeping in mind, the longer you leave the hair on the iron, the tighter the curls will be.
- step 3 -
Repeat this step throughout the hair. Using a curling wand in small sections is a great way to create a more uniform curl or wave pattern throughout the hair. Add your favorite holding hair spray to preserve the style for longer periods. Working with naturally textured hair extensions, means it performs almost identically to natural hair. ie. Curls will fall faster without some type of holding product and the hair will respond to humidity!
- step 4 -
As you've made your way around your head, use smaller sections in the front to create face framing curls. Gently separate any curls that are more defined with your fingers to give a more effortless look.
