After a week of Cantu failures, I think we have a winner. I tried the Cantu curl cream in the jar, and it left my hair like straw. Then I tried the Cantu Curl Refreshing Spray, which left a...

Full of moisturizing ingredients, especially oils, this cream is fairly thick so I recommend using the tiniest amount combined with A LOT of water. It will give you super soft feeling hair. I...

I have dyed low porosity 2A-3B hair. My ringlets fall more on the top of my head with waves in the bottom layers. This is an excellent CG curl cream for the price point and it is widely available...

Summary: good for curls, but also an amazing blowout cream. My hair is coarse, thick, and naturally wavy (mix of 2B and 2C). I normally straighten, but do sometimes wear it natural/wavy. I picked...

I have pretty "regular" hair with a slight wave. This product doesn't enhance my waves - I think you really need to have natural, actual curls! But I mixed some of this with distilled water and...

This is my HG curl cream. It is kept in the ethnic hair section most places, but I can attest that it works on my curly locks as well~ This cream is not overly fragant, does not weigh down your...

TLDR: Worth trying on wavy hair to improve natural texture and can be reapplied throughout the day to help with frizzing. Try not to use too much initially, as it will weigh down your hair and slow...

Surprised at how much I liked this. I expected it to weigh my hair down but it doesn't. I use about a quarter size amount on my shoulder-length, fine 2a/2b hair. It does feel moisturizing and...

It is so frustrating when something so popular in the curly world just isn't right for you and it feels like, just you sometimes. That is the case with this curl cream. This is gets great ratings...

I have fine low porosity 2c waves but really straight roots. I chose this because it is a curling cream and a leave in all in one and it has a lot less thick consistency compared to other silicone...

I have very fine and thin hair, about chin length at this moment and this product, at least for me, does what it says; it activates my curls. Makes them more ringlet-y and tight. Whenever I don't...
