Curl Control
At Qiqi, we understand that not all curls are created equal. Some clients adore their natural curl or wave but yearn for hydration and frizz reduction without sacrificing their beloved curls. Enter 'Curl Control,' your ticket to the best of both worlds.
Begin your journey by analyzing the hair type and selecting the right Hair Controller for the job.
To set the stage, prepare the hair with a thorough cleanse using the Go Deeper cleansing shampoo.
Apply the chosen Hair Controller based on your hair type.
For wavy to curly hair, after saturating the entire section, gently place the hair in the palm of your hand and compress it towards the head to shape the curl.
For those with very curly to coiled textures, apply the product to each subsection and form and define those beautiful coils as you go.
It's time for the magic to happen. Cover your treated hair with a plastic cap and heat it up for 30- 45 minutes on high heat.
When it comes to rinsing, remember: less is more. Avoid over-rinsing, and aim to rinse your hair at 90%. Use low water pressure and warm water for the best results. Your hair should be free of excessive product, and the water may still appear slightly milky/cloudy.
After that invigorating rinse at 90%, it's time to elevate the experience. Apply a masque to your hair, gently compressing or forming curls in the process.
Let the masque work its magic for 10 minutes.
Rinse, and then apply your favorite styling cream. You're now ready to either air dry or use a blow-dryer with a diffuser.
What's next on your journey to perfect, frizz-free curls? The possibilities are endless.
