Step 3: Take another ¼” parting and weave Micro Stiches applying Formula #2.
Step 4: Alternate Step 2 and Step 3 throughout all four quadrants of the hair.
Step 5: Shampoo, towel-dry well and apply Formula #3 for 3-5 minutes, rinse well and condition.
Step 6: Detangle with Intense Therapy Leave-In Treatment and using a cocktail of PRAVANA’s Hydra Pearl Oil and Texture Balm to create a velvety consistency, control flyaways and act as a heat protectant, style creating 2-strand twists and place the client under a warm hooded dryer. Once dry, undo the 2-strand twists gently and shake out the look with Hydra Pearl Mist styling with your fingers.
