How to Define Your Taj Hair: Step-by-Step Routine for Lasting Definition

Share

Ready to unlock the full potential of your Taj texture? Taj is known for its rich coils, volume, and soft definition that mirrors natural fluffy coils. Whether you’re styling a wig, clip-ins, or wefted bundles, mastering the Taj routine is all about applying the right products on wet hair and setting those curls with heat for a long-lasting finish. Here’s how to get the best results every time.



Tips for More Curl Definition

1. Start on freshly washed, soaking-wet hair.

Taj responds best to water. Always apply your products while the hair is fully wet to ensure moisture and even curl formation.

2. Choose your product combo.
You can create two different finishes depending on your preferred look and hold strength:

  • Option 1 – Strong, long-lasting definition: Curldaze Ultra Moisture Crème + Innersense I Create Curl Memory Gel

  • Option 2 – Soft, bouncy definition: Unite 7 Seconds Leave-In + The Doux Mousse Def Texture Foam

💧 Pro Tip: A detangling leave-in like Unite 7 Seconds Leave-In is a staple for all textures — whether you’re using Taj, Aura, or any other curl pattern. It provides reliable slip, moisture, and protection in every routine, making it a go-to product in all circumstances.

3. Detangle and distribute.
Use a detangling brush such as the Unbrush or Olivia Garden Finger Brush (Medium) to gently remove tangles and evenly coat every strand.

4. Define and clump.
Follow up with a Denman Brush to form uniform coils and boost definition through each section.

5. Dry with heat to “set” the curls.
Use a hooded dryer or diffuser on low heat until completely dry. Air-drying can leave Taj curls uneven or frizzy—heat helps seal in the pattern and shape.

6. Finish and fluff.
Once dry, separate curls gently with your fingers or a wide-tooth pick for added volume.

Important Considerations

  • Avoid Product Overload: Start with small amounts—Taj curls don’t need heavy layering.

  • Mix Smart: Stick to one moisture base (cream or leave-in) and one styler (foam or gel).

  • Keep It Wet: If sections begin to dry mid-styling, re-spray with water before adding products.

  • Set With Intention: Consistent heat-drying ensures curls stay defined for longer.
