Such an approach allows for a gentle, yet deliberate, refinement of personal care habits, leading to sustained hair health and manageability for individuals with coily, kinky, and wavy textures. Recognizing the unique needs of melanin-rich hair, Ndiagne encourages a patient, discerning attention to product efficacy and technique, ensuring that each step contributes meaningfully to the hair’s overall well-being. This methodical application lessens guesswork, bringing consistent vitality to the hair.
