About this Event

Clear your schedule, pack your bonnets, and assemble your squad—it’s time to go camping!

Join as we host Camp Coily, an exciting 18+ hands-on indoor experience that will teach you natural hair care and styling. This is NOT a real camp as much as it is an adventure that we will embark on to teach you how to style your loose curly hair and locs or add some braid or twist extensions.

Camp Coily will be held on November 2, 2025, at , there will be two sessions to choose from.

If you’re ready to explore or level up your natural haircare skills with some hands-on fun, you do "knot" wanna miss our in-person event!


Who All Gonna Be There?

All experience levels are welcome to Camp Coily! Whether you want to learn the basics of cornrowing, master the art of crisp parting, loc maintenance, two-strands, and flat twist, your tribe awaits.

As the DMV’s top natural hair salon, N has been celebrating, styling, and nurturing kinks, locs, and curls of all kinds for 12 years. We ain’t new to this, we’re true to this! Our camp counselors (master stylists) bring 15+ years EACH to the natural hair game. Need we say more?

This event is great for new naturals seeking to learn basic hair care practices that work. The veteran natural who wants to do more than pull their hair back in a puff. And the parent looking to style their child's hair, of course dads are invited!



Why Go to Camp Coily?

Hands-On Learning: Get access to textured hair mannequins, products and styling tools in workshops led by our master stylists. On the hands-on agenda are four styles, teaching you how to do two strand twists, flat twists, cornrows, and loc grooming each session. We're calling it camp because the name is cute, but really it's more like a boot camp. We’ll teach you how to detangle both your hair and your hair struggles!



Cultural Education: Dive deep into empowering discussions about African American hairstory. This isn’t your average “campfire story”—we’re telling truths you won’t find in any textbook. And exposing you to the true significance of possessing the skills you will walk away with.



"Curl" side Chats: Gather ‘round, roast some marshmallows, and spill the tea on hair care tips. While the hair styling will take up most of the class haircare will be part of the foundations we go over at the beginning. Get ready to take notes and ask questions for personalized tips.



Tailored Camp Experience: Link up with like minds and skills with beginner, intermediate and advanced hair sessions for the perfect, intimate experience. You can be brand new to styling, been doing it a while but need some help or feel like you're ready to open up your own salon and you just have a few questions for stylists that have been doing this for over a decade. We will have multiple master stylists on-site catering to whatever level you are at.
