1. Smaller Sections, Better Results!

The key to a flawless style is precision. The devil is in the details. While styling, remember to always make precise parts and take small sections. Try to make sure that the same amount of hair is on each roller or that you are always blowdrying/flat ironing the hair in small sections.

2. Avoid Being Cool!

Before removing rollers, twists or braids, always make sure the hair is 100% dry. Look for any parts of the hair that feel “cool” to the touch.
Damp hair or wet spots will cause the style to drop instantly and frizz. And no amount of heat or product will be able to save your style.

3. Use a Little Muscle!

If you want styles that will last, you have to use a little tension. As you roll your hair, make sure to “roll, roll, and then pull” on the roller firmly so that the hair and roots will dry sleek and smooth. As you braid, twist or bantu knot, remember that tighter is better.

However, use your best judgment. Styles should not be so tight that they damage the hair or make you feel uncomfortable during the drying process. The key is to avoid loose styling, which will cause the style to frizz and drop instantly.
