Tight, springy corkscrews or Z-shaped bends that grow upward—not down.
3 Key Signs:
🔹 Hair sprouts outward from the scalp
🔹 Strands form tight springs or sharp Z-shapes
🔹 Thick, coarse texture (feels wiry to the touch)

Coily hair is thirsty and fragile—here’s how to nourish it:
-
Wash Less: 1-2x/week with sulfate-free shampoo (overwashing strips oils!).
-
Mask Regularly: Use shea butter/argan oil masks weekly to boost elasticity.
-
Gentle Drying: Pat dry with microfiber (no rubbing!) to avoid breakage.
-
Nighttime Protection: Sleep on a silk pillowcase or Lena satin bonnet to lock in moisture.
Use LENA S16 Beach Waves Curling Iron (19mm ceramic barrel):
- Apply heat protectant to damp hair
- Section strands, hold for 3-5 seconds per curl
- Result: Bouncy, salon-worthy spirals with minimal damage
Try LENA H2 Hair Straightener with low heat:
- Fine hair: 150-180°C | Thick hair: 180-200°C
- Glide smoothly from roots to tips, finish with argan oil for shine
Overnight Twist-Out:
- Apply curl cream to wet hair
- Twist into 8-10 sections
- Unravel next morning for soft, natural coils

Hydrate First: Always start with moisturized hair (dry strands break easily!).
-
Control Heat: Never max out temps—fine hair stays below 180°C, thick below 200°C.
-
Trim Regularly: Cut ends every 8-12 weeks to keep curls bouncy and strong.
Whether you rock them natural or styled, coily hair is stunning—and deserves care that works with its texture.
