Camille’s 10-Minute Clean Styling Protocol
Start with a sulfate-free shampoo to gently cleanse, then apply a botanical deep conditioner and let it sit for five minutes—this is my ‘soak’ step that preps the hair for hydration. Rinse with cool water to seal the cuticle, then, while hair is dripping wet, apply your leave-in: a mix of aloe vera juice, marshmallow root extract, and a few drops of rosewater. Scrunch upward to encourage curl formation.
Next, section your hair into four parts and use a diffuser on low heat, starting at the roots with your head flipped upside down. Dry each section until 80% dry, then let the rest air-dry. Finish by scrunching out any crunch with a drop of jojoba oil on your palms. This technique gives you soft, bouncy curls with zero frizz and all-day hold.
