👑 The Coilé Crown Moisture & Retention Routine
Step 1: Hydrate — Cortex Hydrating Milk
- The Role: Penetrates deep into the hair fiber to infuse moisture, soften strands, and give instant slip.
- When: On freshly washed, damp hair (or misted with warm water on refresh days).
- How Much: 2–4 pumps per section (adjust based on density and length).
- How to Apply: Work from roots to ends in sections. Gently finger-detangle or glide a wide-tooth comb through your hair from the ends upward. Do not rinse out.
Step 2: Nourish — Cuticle Resurfacing Cream
- The Role: Delivers rich plant butters and lipids to smooth down cuticle scales and prevent water loss.
- When: Immediately following Step 1 while hair is still damp.
- How Much: A nickel-to-quarter-sized amount per section.
- How to Apply: Smooth evenly from roots to ends using the praying-hands method. Focus on smoothing down the hair shaft to encourage curl definition and clump formation.
Step 3: Protect — Type IV Restorative Lipid Serum
- The Role: Forms a lightweight, flexible lipid barrier that locks in the previous layers and defends against mechanical friction and breakage.
- When: Immediately after Step 2 (to seal), and 1–2 times weekly between wash days.
- How Much: 2–3 drops (a small amount goes a long way).
- How to Apply: Warm the serum between your palms. Coat the entire strand from roots to ends, giving extra focus and attention to the mid-shaft and ends (the oldest, most fragile parts of your hair).
💡 Single-Product Integration Guide
- If you only have Step 1 (Milk): Use it as your primary leave-in hydrator on damp hair before applying your favorite styling butter or oil.
- If you only have Step 2 (Cream): Apply to damp, freshly conditioned hair as your rich styling and nourishing base before twisting, braiding, or air-drying.
- If you only have Step 3 (Serum): Use as your finishing oil to seal damp, moisturized hair, or apply 2 drops directly to dry ends mid-week to prevent split ends and breakage.
🗓️ Recommended Frequency
- Full Wash Day Routine (Steps 1–3): Every 7 to 10 days.
- Mid-Week Refresh: Mist lightly with warm water, smooth a small amount of Step 1 over dry sections, and seal with a small amount of Step 3.
