FAQs
What is coily hair?
Coily hair, also known as Type 4 hair, is characterized by tight, springy curls or zigzag patterns. This hair type often has fewer cuticle layers, making it prone to dryness and requiring extra moisture to maintain its health and definition.
What is the difference between coily hair vs curly hair?
While both curly and coily hair have natural curls, the key difference lies in the curl pattern and texture. Curly hair (Types 2 and 3) features looser, more defined curls, while coily hair (Type 4) forms tight curls or coils. Coily hair tends to be drier and more fragile, requiring more intensive hydration and care compared to curly hair.
How to take care of coily hair?
Taking care of coily hair involves keeping it hydrated and reducing breakage. Use moisturizing shampoos and conditioners, followed by leave-in conditioners, and rich creams or oils to seal in moisture. Regular deep conditioning treatments are essential, as well as gentle detangling with a wide-tooth comb or fingers to prevent damage.
