Step 1: Cleanse & Hydrate
Choose Co Wash (for dry, curly hair) or Co Wash Plus (for oily, wavy hair). Apply to fully saturated hair, focusing on your scalp to lift buildup while moisturizing your strands. Rinse thoroughly for clean, refreshed curls.

Step 2: Lock in Moisture
Distribute Leave-In Conditioner evenly through soaking wet hair, focusing on mids and ends. This lightweight formula keeps curls hydrated, soft, and frizz-free without weighing them down.

Step 3: Define & Style
Apply Style It Gel to soaking wet hair, scrunching upwards for curl definition and hold. Let air-dry or diffuse to lock in bouncy, touchable curls.
