Sorry some pics are so big, I couldn't make them smaller
I have been having problems with the front of my hair being too long for bangs so here is what I do to make bangs in the front, but you can also do it to make coils wherever you need/want them (maybe in a 4a/4b part in the midst of 3c??)
Step one, have some styling gel, I prefer Fantasia IC and a pen/marker of whatever size you want the coils to be:
Next, put a little gel on the pieces you want to coils(this area for me is usually already coated with leave in conditioner or it will be crunchy and dry
.) I try to do them as small as possible b/c big chunks don't look as good to me but to each his own
Here's the tricky part, depending on what your want. Lately I have been holding it in place for about 10 seconds, then I place my thumb and index finger at the bottom of where my hair ends on the end, then I slide the marker down while still holding my fingers under the hair. This helps make them shorter. Or you can make them longer by pulling it down like this:
This one is a little longer than I usually do it but here is the end product:
I usually do about 5-6 across the front for an end look like this:
Problem solved! (Until my hair gets a little more even
)
Hope this is helpful!!
