HAIR LOUNGE: MAINTENANCE & NIGHTTIME ROUTINES

Welcome to the HairCare Lounge

Luxury hair deserves luxury instructions, okay?

GIRLLL… buckle up because you gone learn today.
This ain’t no boring “wrap your hair and hope for the best” kind of guide.
If you’ve invested in bundles like Loosen Up Girl Curly, Naomi Straight, or Bipolar Wavy from the Closet17 Collection… This page is your cheat code.

The girlies have questions, How do I wrap Lola the Body? Can I put heat on Loosen Up Girl? This is the page that answers all that. No more YouTube rabbit holes. This is your official bundle bible. No dry tracks. No crunchy ends. . Just real guidance from ya stylist bestie  aka me.


Why This Page Exists (And Why It’s a Must Read)

This Page Protects You and Me

If you mistreat your bundles, curls get crunchy, straight hair gets stiff, baby… don’t play in my inbox talking about it’s the hair. This page helps protect your investment AND my peace. So you can’t say, I didn’t know. Because now you do.

 This Is Luxury Hair, Not Beauty Supply Hair

This is raw Cambodian hair, that means it’s real, unprocessed, and worth the coins you spent. So let’s treat her like the luxury she is.

Every Texture Needs Her Own Routine

LolaThe Body rules don’t apply to Bipolar Kinky Curly. Loosen Up Girl needs different love than Naomi Straight. And Black Beck Wavy doesn’t behave like Blow Me Kinky Straight. So we break it down by texture with night routines, must have products, and the real life tips that actually work.

This Isn’t Just Education, It’s Elevation

When I say use C17 Edgestuff or refresh your scalp with Hairstuff Deodorant, it’s not just me selling you something. These are the same tools I use in the salon to keep your install smelling fresh, growth poppin and lasting for weeks.

We’re not wasting time or money around here. You spent good coin on this hair, let’s make her last.

 I’m Not Just a Stylist, I’m Your Hair Partner

Most stylists install and send you on your way. Not me. I care about your scalp, your growth, your confidence, and your edges. I don’t want you just cute the day of the install, I want you cute on Day 25 too. That’s what makes Closet17 different.


Your Bundle = Your Routine

Let’s break it down by texture so you know exactly how to treat her right.


🌀 Curly Girls

Bundles: Loosen Up Girl Curly, Bipolar Wavy Curly, Tease-Me-Tammy, Bipolar Kinky Curly

Night Routine:

Scarf first, bonnet last. Always. The bonnet alone creates friction and frizz.

Twist in 2–4 sections and secure with rubber bands at the ends.

Morning Refresh:

Spray curls with water + 2% leave in conditioner.

Add 2% oil to water bottle mix

Detangle with finger for a couple of days, until comb out day

or

Detangle from bottom up with wide tooth comb, then Denman brush.

Scrunch. Air dry.

Hands off until dry.

 

Product Gems:

Tresemme Curls Conditioner (in your spray bottle) 

or

Miss Jessie's Pillow Soft Curls

C17 HairStuff Deodorant (for the scalp)

Edge Control

 Hair Perfume to finish


🌊 Wavy Babes

Bundles: Bipolar Wavy, Black Beck Wavy, Pre Colored Lola

Night Routine:

2–4 braids at night, depending on wave depth.

Twist in 2–4 sections and secure with rubber bands at the ends.

For Body Waves Use long bobby pins or duck clips to secure ends.

Scarf first, bonnet last.

 

Morning Refresh:

For 2-4 braids section, Lightly mist with water + conditioner

Use paddle brush or fingers to style

Argan oil for softness and frizz control

Hot Tip: Use a big comb to section and a Denman brush to define if it’s feeling flat. Wavy hair loves attention but hates buildup.


Straight + Kinky Straight Queens

Bundles: Naomi Straight, Blow Me Kinky Straight, Lola the Body

Night Routine:

Use the Criss Cross Wrap Method
(Part down the middle, wrap each side in opposite directions. Keeps it flowy and flat.)

Use duck clips or long pins to hold in place

Scarf first, bonnet last

Bonus TikTok Tea: Stocking Cap Method
Search “Criss Cross Stocking Wrap” on TikTok.
The girlies are wrapping their bundles using old pantyhose with leg holes. Hair goes through each leg, gets wrapped around, and secured. It sounds wild, but the results? Baby, laid.

Morning Glow:

Comb for a smooth, sleek refresh

Paddle brush or Denman to detail ends

Light serum only


The Comb Out = Your Lifesaver

If she’s feeling dry, tangled, or stiff — baby it’s time for a Comb Out Revival.

Curly/Wavy Bundles:

Section into 4

Drench with water + conditioner

Detangle bottom up with wide-tooth comb

Follow with Denman brush

Scrunch, let air dry

Optional: Flexi rods or diffuser if needed

Straight/Kinky Straight:

Section in 4

Start at ends, detangle up to roots

Use blow dryer brush for sleekness

Style as desired


HairCare Don’ts (But Make It Cute)

🚫 No sleeping without a scarf
🚫 No heavy oils or leave ins before install
🚫 No brushing curls when dry
🚫 No skipping your 4–5 week retouch

🚫 No blaming the bundles if you didn’t do the bare minimum boo


Let’s Keep Her Fresh, Soft, and Fine AF

Wash every 4–5 weeks with Shampoo or Silicon Mix

Use dry shampoo to refresh straight installs

Spray C17 Hairstuff Deodorant in the part for A Healthy scalp

Use C17 EdgeStuff and Perfume to complete the look


Last but not least: Keep It Cute Between Retouches

You should be back in my chair every 4–5 weeks for your MYPART retouch.

Trying to stretch it longer?
Your braid pattern suffers.
The scalp gets itchy.
The install won’t lay right.
And bestie, my hands will be mad at you.


That’s It, Boo. You’re Officially HairCare Lounge Certified.

Now that you know the tea, keep her looking expensive and alive. Because luxury starts at night, shows in the morning, and shines for weeks when you care for her right.

Need to revisit these tips? Bookmark this page. Share with your bestie. Print it out if you need to.

This is your install bible.
And you're that girl now.


Your Nighttime Routine

No matter your texture  Curly, Wavy, or Straight your night routine can make or break your install.

And boo, don’t play by just throwing on a bonnet.
Scarf first, Bonnet second. Every time.

Why? Because the MYPART area needs to stay laid and protected. A bonnet alone will make her frizzy, bulky, and "I overslept" looking. Wrap your MYPART with a silk or satin scarf nice and flat, then bonnet or sleep on a satin pillow.

Bonus: Don’t forget the MYPART Comb Out Routine (yes girl, she needs love too)

Comb her Out gently. Always.
Every 2-3 days gently hold and detangle the MYPART section with a comb from the ends up, No snatching. No lazy combing. A little TLC keeps her alive and fresh. Boom!

Criss Cross Wrap

The Criss Cross Wrap Method, But Easy:

This is not your grandma’s old school wrap. MYPART needs to be flat, and stay looking like that girl.

Here’s the tea:

  1. Part your hair down the middle, straight, clean part, boo.

  2. Split into two sections.

  3. Take the left side and wrap it around the back of your head just like the picture to the right side. Hold it with a duck clip or a long bobby pin.

  4. Do the same with the right side, wrap it around the back to the left, and clip.

  5. Criss Cross complete! You’ve created a flat, natural wrap that protects your style and keeps body and bounce.

This keeps your MYPART from looking stiff or overly “set” like old-fashioned wrapping does. No helmet head here.

Nighttime Routine:
Scarf FIRST, bonnet LAST. Always.
Wrap using the Criss Cross Wrap Method, this keeps the hair flat, natural, and flowy. No old school round wrapping, MYPART needs freedom, boo.
Use Large Flat Duck Clips to hold hair flat or long bobby pins 

Nighttime Routine:

Scarf FIRST, Bonnet LAST. Always.

Your MYPART ain’t regular so her maintenance can’t be either. That bonnet by itself? Chile... dangerous. It causes frizz, makes your MYPART puffy and gives “old sewin” vibes. The real secret? Scarf first to lay everything down, bonnet last to protect. Non-negotiable.

Morning Vibes:
Comb out gently starting at the ends (you know the MYPART comb-out rule — don’t skip that part!).
Light serum + paddle brush to smooth and go.

Products I Love:
Frizz Ease Serum, Argan Oil, C17 Hairstuff Deodorant (keeps her fresh), C17 EdgeStuff Roll-on for the edges.

Special Tips:
Avoid heavy oils. Dry shampoo between salon days keeps her light and fresh.
4–5 week retouch is a MUST to keep her silky and laid — no stretching, boo. 

Important Reminder:

  • No lazy wrapping, boo. Don’t just throw on a bonnet raw — that’s why some installs look older faster.

  • Always detangle gently before wrapping — MYPART and bundles both.

  • Use a wide-tooth comb or paddle brush for straight styles.

  • For wavy/curly: detangle wet or lightly misted — not dry.

 



 

CURLY HAIR

put your hair into 2 to 4 twist and use and rubberband to secure the ends. The next morning, spray your hair with spray bottle 2% leave in conditioner, fluff and go. Curls will be poppin!

WAVY

Separate your hair into two sections and braid each part. Feel free to add more braids if your wave pattern is tighter. For a deep wave we recommend four braids.

In the morning, Brush or Comb Hair add  leave in conditioner + Argan oil and you're good to go!

 

CO-WASH (Conditioner Only Wash) every two weeks or monthly

Step 1: Start off by wetting the hair with water. Apply a moisturizing conditioner from weft to tip. Be very generous!
Step 2: Comb through the hair with a wide tooth comb and let the conditioned hair sit for a good 10 minutes or more.
Step 3: After hair is re hydrated, be sure to rinse out all the conditioner from hair.
Step 4: Finally, gently pat the hair with a towel to remove excess water from the hair, let hair air dry. Never rub or manipulate hair while air drying hair will become frizzy and big.
