After you unwrap, curls may look tighter at first — this is completely normal.
Allow 20–30 minutes for curls to settle and soften into their final shape.

Jump to a tip: Smooth ends · Secure wraps · Headband placement
✔ Smooth ends (no crimps)
Before securing with the elastic loop, gently fold the strip end upward. This helps keep curl ends smooth and polished.
🎥 See how in these videos →
✔ Secure wraps (no unraveling)
As you wrap, give the strip a slight twist in the opposite direction. This counter-tension helps keep hair snug and secure.

✔ OG headband users: placement
