Review: Best curling cream - I’ve been really pleased with this curling cream. A little goes a long way, and it helps define my curls without making them feel crunchy or stiff. It leaves my hair feeling soft, moisturised, and reduces frizz throughout the day. The cream has a pleasant coconut scent that isn’t overpowering, and it’s easy to work through damp hair. I find it gives my curls better shape and helps them last longer between washes. The tub also lasts a long time because you don’t need to use much each time, so it offers good value for money. Overall, it’s become a staple in my hair care routine, and I’d happily buy it again.
Review: Little bit goes a long way! If you Hate coconut smells, then this is for you! - I have type 2B hair and a lot of it! This makes it very thick looking and very prone to being frizzy easily. I'm rather sceptical when it comes to products that 'do it all' and have spent £££ over the years on them. But, I can honestly say, this product is FANTASTIC. After reading other's reviews, I followed their tips - I applied it when my hair was almost dry but still with some dampness; I then used an amount equivalent size of a 10pence piece, which was the perfect amount for my hair. I can see it being quite heavy or sticky in your hair if you use too much, so start with a small amount - you can always add more! Leaves curls defined, soft and frizz free (admittedly, my hair needs a cut, hence the bit of frizz) It has No Coconut smell, which so many of these products have, but instead a subtle smell of Shea - lovely. This bottle is going to last me ages! - Great value for money and I am now more inclined to purchase other products within Cantu range.
