THE KORZEN CODE

Mastering the keys to healthy hair and breaking the barriers to length.

  • Prioritize Scalp Care: Your hair is rooted in your scalp. Massage and exfoliate weekly to stimulate blood flow and clear the way for healthy growth.
  • Deep Condition Bi-Weekly: Treat your coils to an intensive moisture infusion at least twice a month. For the best results, use our Chocolate Coconut Deep Conditioner with a plastic cap.
  • Schedule Your Trims: Keep your length by having your ends clipped every 3 months. Healthy ends prevent splits from traveling up the hair shaft.
  • Nighttime Protection: Never sleep on cotton. Protect your moisture and prevent friction with a Silk Hair Bonnet or Pillow Case.
  • Master the "Wet Application": For maximum definition, always apply your Curling Cream and Mousse to soaking wet hair. This is the game-changer for Type 4 curls.
  • Embrace Protective Styling: Give your hair a break from daily manipulation. Opt for low-tension styles that keep your ends tucked away and hydrated.
  • Trust the System: Follow the specific directions on each Korzen Hair product to ensure the pH-balanced formulas work exactly as intended.
  • Don’t Suffocate the Scalp: Healthy growth starts with oxygen. Avoid keeping your hair covered for extended periods; your follicles need to "breathe" to maintain a healthy scalp environment.
  • Don’t Over-Wash: Frequent shampooing can strip your coils of the natural oils they need. Listen to your texture—if your hair feels chronically dry, try extending the time between wash days.
  • Don’t Rush the Process: Wash day is a ritual, not a race. Rushing leads to tension and unnecessary breakage. Take your time and handle every strand with intention.
  • Don’t Over-Saturate: With high-quality botanical formulas, less is more. Using too much product leads to heavy buildup and "product flakes." Start small and add only what your hair can absorb.
  • Don’t Use Fine-Tooth Combs on Wet Hair: Wet hair is at its most fragile. To prevent snapping, always start by finger-detangling. If you use a tool, stick to wide-tooth combs or detangling brushes designed for Type 4 hair.
  • Don’t Over-Apply Heat: Excessive heat can permanently alter your curl pattern and cause severe breakage. Always check your iron settings and ensure the temperature is calibrated for your specific hair thickness.

  • Sulfates are bad for your hair because it strip our strands of its natural oils.
  •  Mineral oils (paraffin oil) are bad for our hair because it is a clear and odorless ingredient which cause product build-up on the scalp. This can cause scalp irritation and stunt hair growth.
  • Parabens can cause natural hair to become dry and brittle which leads to breakage. Parabens can enter the body through the scalp, interfere with the body’s hormones and are linked to chronic illnesses and certain cancers.
