FAQ

Curl Shampoo is a creamy, rich low-lather shampoo that is the first step to healthy curls. Infused with our Healthy Curl Complex, it gently cleanses without stripping while providing superior slip for weightless detangling, leaving you with stronger, more defined curls.

Curl Shampoo was designed to work on across all hair textures types – wavy, curly and coily.

Apply to wet hair. Massage at scalp & work into lather. Use the rich lather to begin the detangling process if desired. Rinse. Follow with Curl Conditioner.

Yes, you can use Curl Shampoo & Conditioner alone and get good results, it really depends on the style you are looking to create and what your hair needs.

If you have a strong curl pattern, dry detangling prior to cleansing and conditioning may be helpful for you to work the care products throughout your hair easily when wet.

The Curl shampoo & conditioner were designed for the curl consumer to keep to their curl routine. If you typically comb in the shower, you should continue to do so. Detangling and forming your curls in the shower, will deliver the best results when styling post shower.

Depending on your hair type, you may need to detangle your hair after using Curl Shampoo & Conditioner. If you need a detangler, Restore Perfecting Spray will help detangle and provide leave in detangler.

All curl patterns require different types of styling support! Weaker curl patterns may require scrunching your curls to form curl groupings while stronger textures maybe require a comb/brush to start forming curl grouping in the shower. Using Curl Conditioner for any type of styling techniques in the shower, will make it a lot easier to work with. After forming any type of in shower curl styling with rinse out products, follow with a soft rinse (low pressure) to not disturb your curl pattern.

Co-washes do not have a surfactant system that will properly cleanse the scalp and hair. Incorporating a shampoo into a curl routine, will help keep the scalp and hair healthy.

Our new Curl Shampoo & Conditioner were formulated for all curl types to have proper curl care. After an extensive amount of consumer research, it was apparent that a co-wash was not the most effective for the majority of curl types based on product usage, curl habits and needs.
