The Healthy Textures' Setting Course

Setting is one the best ways to achieve super healthy hair with long-lasting bounce and shine. It's also the most popular technique on this site and is responsible for helping hundreds of our members achieve healthier hair at home.

We designed this web course to help you learn new, efficient ways to set your hair at home. Contrary to popular belief, setting is not just about large curls and rollers. Virtually any style can be recreated by shaping the hair and setting it. We hope this course will introduce you to new ways to set your hair at home.

This course is great for relaxed, texlaxed and natural heads looking to "fix it and forget it". So, dust off those hood dryers and join us December 15th.
