Shine 'n Jam Magic Fingers for Braiders: Superior Hold & Shine for Flawless Braids 16 oz
The 16oz tub is the braider's size. If you are installing box braids or cornrows on more than yourself, the small jars run out halfway through a head, and this one is sized for a full day's work.
Magic Fingers is built for grip. It holds the section while you plait so the braid does not slip at the root, and the finished style stays tidy rather than fraying out after a week. Flyaways get smoothed as you go, which is most of what makes a braid look professionally done.
It dries without white residue and without the tacky feel that makes the next section harder to handle. There are natural ingredients in the formula, so the hair underneath is not left parched by the hold.
For micro braids, box braids, knotless and cornrows. It works across fine, medium and coarse hair, which is why it tends to be the tub that lives on the salon trolley.

Application tips
The tub to open at the start of a full day of installs. Keep it within reach, scoop with the back of a comb or two fingers, and load each section before the first cross.
Sixteen ounces carries a long head of box braids with room to spare. Close the lid between clients so the surface does not skin over, and wipe the rim before it sets hard.
Results
Enough grip that the root stays put while you work down the length, which is most of the difference between a neat install and a fraying one. Flyaways flatten as you pass over them, so parts read sharp in photographs.
Nothing white on drying, and no tack building up on the hands. Hair underneath comes out feeling looked after rather than parched.
