Hey: hey: hey y'all, I'm back to share with you a quick tutorial on how to achieve this coil out hairstyle, with finger coils on tapered, natural hair. Of course, I'm starting off with freshly washed hair, and here you can actually see how my hair is cut before it's stretched out with the finger coils. The products that we'll be using today are from the dark and lovely moisture loc line which contain a leave-in oil cocktail and a cream to seal your hair. I will also be using the O natural anti shrinkage. Ten and one styles. Now you know I couldn't do this style without my ride-or-die eco styler gel, which I'm using to give my hair a bit more hold and, of course, my broken comb. Hashtag natural hair problem finger. Coils are simple to do. I'Ve already gotten started by doing the first row, two fingers for your hair, simply section off the area you want to coil and apply the product. I apply both the tin and one jelly, and the eco styler gel at the same time be sure to apply the mixture from root to tip this method allows for faster finger coiling. As you can see, I am completely saturated my hair with the product, and I am working it through from root to tip to be sure that it is completely covered. This is important for doing finger coils to create the finger coils grab your hair at one hand and section off a small amount to be caught with the other, starting close to the scalp twist your hair around the pointer finger. As you turn your finger in small circles in a clockwise fashion, as you do, the coil pull down slightly on the hair, as you get to the end notice that the coil will bounce back in place continue to do this until you finish the entire section, if It doesn't feel comfortable twisting counterclockwise, you can always twist counterclockwise, just be sure to start close to the roots and to pull down slightly as you get close to the end, to create the coil. So once you've finished coiling the suction make sure you pat the coils down, so that they are all straight and laying flat once you get the hang of it, it actually goes pretty quick as feed in the sped up version of the video - and here are my Coils all done I've actually finger combed, my entire head, except for the back area, and so now that my entire head has been finger coil. The next thing to do is allow them to dry. You can air dry or use a Trier. I opted to let them air dry and I also use a Trier - and this is what it looks like after they've been drying for frankly, most of the day, half the time with the dryer and the rest of the time, letting them dry normally with the air. So you can actually wear this as I style, and I wore my hair like this for two days before I decided to take them out - and this is what my hair looks like two days after the finger. Coils have been in notice that they're completely dry and my end are showing their color. So since it's been a couple of days, I'm actually gon na add some moisture and shine back to my hair, using the motions, radiating gloss, hair, serum, and so I just rub that all over my coils and work it in so that when I pick them out, They will actually be shiny and moisturized, and Here I am just taking them loose, you can just take them loose easily just by going to the base and pulling them apart or, however, works for you and just go through and pull all of them apart separating them. One by one, so here are my coils completely separated you can go through it through and separate them as little or as much as you like. I like to separate them just enough so that I can see the finger coil definition, but then the Cowles be able to last throughout the week, and so what I'm doing now is just fluffing up my hair and give you my hair some more volume. Using a pick - and this is really going to help define my taper cut - one thing that you can do in order to help define your secret side or the part that I had here, you can actually put a bobby pin there to help keep that side separated. So you can continue to play in it work in it make the styles yours like I said. I don't like to separate my calls too much because I will separate them later throughout the week as the south starts to get old, but I do feel that business is the perfect style for somebody who has a short taper cut and is looking for some definition And some elongation with that style, instead of doing just everyday, wash and gos achieving a coil out with finger coils is a quick and easy style and, with some practice, you'll be a pro at it.

Art Donaldson: Thank you Melody I'm a single Dad of a 14 yr old that lived with her Mom in West Virginia for 1yr . She was teased repeatidly about the weave she had in her hair by the white kids there. Once I found out what was going on in the school I removed her from that situation and bought her back to Baltimore. She told me that she wanted to wear her hair in a natural, and I decided to look for a video. If I could hug you through this computer I would . I tell my daughter to be who you are beautiful thanks for being the exact example that I needed to show her. I'm sure you've changed my daughters life for ever. May God Bless You and Keep Marching on Sister!!! Thanks Again Art
