MY HAIR TYPE

4C - Coily Ziggly℠

Type 4c hair is composed of curl patterns that will almost never clump without doing a specific hair style. It can range from fine/thin/super soft to wiry/coarse with lots of densely packed strands. 4c hair has been described as a more "challenging" version of 4b hair. Some say 4c looks identical to 4b except that the curls are so tightly kinked, there is seemingly no definition. 4c hair can shrink more than 75%.
4c celebrites include: Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, and Aevin Dugas.

Quick Tips

• Limit your cleansing to heavy co-washing conditioners
• Use products like oils, creams and butters to moisturize and seal your coils
• Use heavy pudding and creams to help elongate your Coily Ziggly hair. Don't forget to deep condition every 3 days to ensure healthy strong coils

EYESHADOW TO COLOR HAIR

How to Use Eyeshadow

Evelyn colored her coils using cream eyeshadow, after seeing Nikki sporting blue coils on CurlyNikki and sweet purple highlights on Fro Envy. She used Maybelline’s Color Tattoo 24 Hr Cream Gel Shadow in Tenacious Teal.
For a subtle pop of color you can highlight strands throughout your hair, or for more in-your-face vibrant color, you can apply this to a whole section (as pictured). You don’t need to layer the eyeshadow, the color was vibrant with just one application!

• Step 1. Select the section of hair you’d like to color. Evelyn recommends starting with dry hair. You may want to clip the rest of the hair back that you are not coloring.
• Step 2. Using your fingertips, emulsify the cream eyeshadow between your fingers, this will ensure the product is smooth and easier to apply (without chunks).
• Step 3. Apply cream eyeshadow to the section of hair with your fingertips, smooth it through your hair like you would a styling product.
• Step 4. Be sure to work the eyeshadow into your roots as well.
• Step 5. When you’re ready to wash the color out, use your normal method to wash your hair (whether that’s conditioner or shampoo, it washes right out).
