Camille’s 10-Minute Clean Styling Protocol
Start with a sulfate-free shampoo that won’t strip your color—look for one with aloe as the base. Massage it into the scalp gently, not with your nails, just the pads of your fingers. Rinse with cool water to seal the cuticle, then apply a leave-in with oat protein and jojoba oil. The jojoba mimics your scalp’s natural sebum, so it absorbs beautifully without greasiness.
For styling, I love air-drying with a bit of sea-salt spray for that effortless, lived-in texture. If you need to blow-dry, use a diffuser on low heat and keep the nozzle moving. Once dry, take a few thin sections around your face and twist them loosely to enhance those sandy ribbons. No heat tools needed—just your hands and a little patience.
