Thanks to our natural hair versatility, we have the choice between the curly state (defined natural curls), the so-called "kinky" state (loose curls), or stretched hair (loose curls).

- the curly state, the natural curls defined, with good hydration and nutrition of the hair, the curls unite and become visible alone or in strands.

- Hair that has been stretched and its curls loosened when it has been braided or tied up beforehand, then undone and left dry. They stabilize in this state. But if they get wet, the natural curls reform.

- The curls are half-untangled, half-united, giving a temporary locs look. The curls can be styled on their own or by shaping.

- the so-called "frizzy" state, with untangled, disjointed curls.
