FINGER/COMB COILS


Calling on the TWA (teeny weeny afro) rockers! Here’s a style for you.

Rocking a TWA is something I didn’t get to experience. Sometimes I wish I had the courage to do it just to know what it felt like. Other times I let my imagination run and see myself rocking one and slaying it.
For those of you rocking a TWA kudos! Doing what I wasn’t bold enough to do. The very least I could do is give you some ideas on how you can slay the TWA look. I’ll be sharing some styles I’ve always fancied on short hair. For this weekend you can try out the one below.

You’ll be needing:

  1. Comb and brush
  2. Spray bottle with water
  3. Styling products like gel (moisturizing gel), butters or a mix of both

How to:

  1. Start on freshly washed/co-washed, moisturized and well detangled hair. 
  2. Section a little part of your hair and detangle. Apply the styling product and brush through to distribute evenly.
  3. Twist your hair around your index fingers starting from the roots (close to the scalp) down to the tip. If you are using comb for your coils, grasp the hair close to the root and twist until hair is coiled to the tip. Continue until the whole hair is completely done.
  4. Air dry.

Tips

  1. This style is best done on dry or slightly damp hair. Spray bottle with water can be used to keep hair damp.
  2. The smaller the sections, the fuller the hair will look.
  3. Always sleep on a satin bonnet/scarf to make coils last longer.
  4. You can achieve a finger/comb coil out by separating the individual coils into smaller sections, like separating a twist to get a twist out.
  5. This style can be worn for several days or weeks but be careful so that your hair doesn’t begin to lock. If hair locks, deep condition and detangle to free locks.
