Cantu Define & Shine Custard 340g

Product Information

Gels are well-suited to all hair types, but due to the different consistencies available, some may provide you with better results than others. The results you get with gels are also very much down to application techniques. I find that most gels work for my hair, but gels that contain lots of oils (the closer to the top of the ingredients list, the higher the concentration), can weigh my hair down and leave me with looser curls. The best gels for me are those that contain protein, like Bounce Curl Light Creme Gel. This isn’t technically a custard, but this jelly works wonders to control dry curls that are prone to falling flat. It’s delicious fruity smell is an added bonus. Gently cleanse your scalp when wearing braids or locs by applying the hair bath directly to the scalp, massage into the hair and use a spray bottle to remove the suds. Pat dry with a towel once all the cleanser has been removed to avoid frizzing of braids while removing dandruff and relieving itching. Custards work well for all hair types, and a little usually goes a long way, so play around with using different amounts. As with all the other products mentioned in this article, your hair density will determine the amount of product you should use.

Cantu FAQs

I didn’t investigate what was causing my hair to become dry. Did I have a ‘protein overload’ or could it be harsh ingredients? I don’t know. At this stage, avoid finger-combing your hair as you’ll risk smoothing the product out of your curl clumps and eliminating the curl-definition you’re after. For styling purposes, always use a microfiber towel or a t-shirt to scrunch. This guarantees the best results with no added frizz. A Treat for Your Curls

Mousses and foams create volume, add texture, and help to enhance curl definition. Like gels, some mousses and foams can dry hard on the hair, but a little bit of scrunching will sort this out. Resist the temptation to go overboard, even if you feel your curls might be lusting for more custard. This product is extremely effective in small quantities – overdoing it will only be counter-productive.
