3. "Use a scrunching technique: Scrunch your hair upward with your hands while blow drying to enhance natural curl pattern." 

4. "Plop it: Wrap your damp hair in a microfiber towel or t-shirt to absorb excess moisture and create defined curls." 

5. "Clip it: Use hair clips or bobby pins to section and secure curls while they cool and set." 

6. "Avoid combing: Fine hair is easily broken, so avoid using a comb or brush when styling curls and instead use your fingers."
