Tips for Selection
1 Hair Type and Concerns: Choose products and gadgets that cater to your specific hair type (fine, thick, curly,
etc.) and address any hair concerns (frizz, damage, dryness).
2 Desired Hairstyles: Consider the types of hairstyles you frequently wear. If you often switch between straight
and curly styles, invest in versatile tools like a flat iron that can also create curls.

3 Quality and Safety Features: Look for gadgets with safety features like automatic shut-off and adjustable
heat settings to prevent hair damage. High-quality products and tools will give better results and last longer.
Incorporating the right mix of hair styling products and gadgets into your routine can significantly enhance the
outcome of your hairstyles, making it easier to achieve salon-quality results at home.

Cornrows

Procedure
Creating hairstyles like cornrows, top buns, and chignons involves a series of steps that require both skill and
practice. Below are step-by-step guides for each hairstyle, ensuring you can achieve these looks with precision.
Cornrows
Preparation
• Start with clean, detangled hair.
• Apply a leave-in conditioner or hair moisturizer to make the hair more pliable.
Sectioning
• Use a tail comb to part the hair into sections. The size of the section depends on how thick you want the
cornrow to be.
• Clip away the sections you are not working on to keep them out of the way.
Starting the Braid
• At the beginning of the section, separate a small piece of hair into three equal parts.
• Begin a standard three-strand braid by crossing the right strand under the middle, then the left strand under
the new middle, tightening as you go.
