Camille’s 10-Minute Clean Styling Protocol
Start with a sulfate-free cleanser to preserve your scalp’s natural oils. Follow with a marshmallow root conditioner, focusing on the mid-lengths and ends. Rinse with cool water to seal the cuticle, then apply a few drops of safflower oil to damp hair. For styling, I love a heatless approach: twist sections around your fingers and let air-dry, or use a diffuser on low heat for extra volume.
If you’re in a rush, a quick refresh is easy: spritz with a black tea and aloe vera mix, then scrunch. The tea adds shine and helps maintain the bob’s shape between washes. Never brush dry curls—use a wide-tooth comb in the shower with conditioner. This keeps the cut looking crisp and prevents frizz.
