We only use curl-safe fatty alcohols such as Cetyl & Stearyl Alcohol, which condition and protect rather than dry.

How it works

Our new and improved Curl Shaping Cream combines ingredients that support curl shape with light hydration to help control frizz and preserve definition in humid weather.

  • Curl Shaping Support: VP/VA Copolymer forms a styling film that helps waves and curls hold their natural shape.
  • Light Hydration: Glycerin helps your curls hold onto moisture.
  • Soft, Smooth Curls: Shea Butter, Olive Oil and Jojoba Oil help condition and smooth the hair, leaving curls soft and touchable.
  • No Drying Alcohols: Made without silicones, sulfates or drying alcohols. Cetyl and Stearyl Alcohol are conditioning fatty alcohols that help soften hair.

After shampooing and conditioning, apply a small amount of Curl Shaping Cream to damp hair, focusing on mid-lengths to ends.

For Wavy and Curly Hair: (2A-4C)

Distribute the cream evenly using your fingers or a wide-tooth comb, working from mid-shaft to ends. Avoid applying too much product to your roots to prevent weighing down your waves.

Gently scrunch your hair upwards to encourage your natural wave pattern, then air dry for the best results. If you're in a hurry, you can diffuse on low heat with a diffuser attachment.

Once your hair is completely dry, gently shake out your hair with your fingers or scrunch lightly to add volume and softness. This will give you light, bouncy waves that last all day without the crunch.

Pro tip for fine wavy hair: Start with a smaller amount than you think you need - you can always add more.

    I have more waves than curls and this really brings them out. My hair actually has a consistent shape now instead of random bits everywhere lol. Feels lovely and soft too.

    the bounce!! Love how my curls look with this. They still move and feel soft when I touch them, which is a big thing for me

    I love this cream. I don’t really need loads of extra moisture, I just want my curls to sit nicely. This is a good balance for my hair. A little hydration and much better definition.

    Outlast the Humidity.

    Humidity has a way of undoing everything within the first hour. 

    So we combined VP/VA Copolymer and Hydrolyzed Keratin. One forms a flexible film around each curl to lock in your natural pattern. The other smooths the cuticle, so humidity has nowhere to get in. 

    Together, they keep your curls defined and controlled... even on your hair's most rebellious days.

    Big results. Zero weight.

    This is our most lightweight formula yet, and that was completely intentional. 

    Fine hair, thinning hair, postpartum curls, curls that have shifted through perimenopause or menopause... they all deserve something that genuinely works without the weight. 

    Our Shaping Cream conditions and smooths without ever dragging your curl pattern down. Soft, defined, and actually touchable.

     
     

    Most brands hide their ingredients. We don't.

    Discover exactly what's in your curl cream - and why it works

     

    Why Shea Butter?

    Shea Butter is one of the few ingredients rich enough to condition curly hair without sitting heavily on it. 

    Its fatty acids smooth and soften each strand, keeping curls feeling nourished and touchable without that weighed-down, coated feeling you get from heavier creams.

    Why Olive Oil?

    Olive oil is packed with oleic acid and Vitamin E, which smooth the cuticle and add a natural shine without greasiness. It also adds slip, so your curls move the way they're supposed to... freely, softly, and without resistance.

    Why Jojoba Oil?

    Jojoba Oil is one of the most lightweight oils in curl care, which is exactly why we chose it for this formula. 

    It mimics your scalp's natural sebum so closely that it conditions and seals without ever making curls feel heavy or limp. A godsend for fine, thin, or low density hair.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Great question, they actually do very different jobs. The Black Castor Oil Curl Cream is all about deep moisture, nourishment, and repair. This one is about definition, frizz control, and hold. It's also our most lightweight formula, so if your hair is on the finer or thinner side, this is your one.

    Not at all. Once your hair is completely dry, give it a gentle scrunch or shake and the cream softens beautifully. The hold is flexible, not stiff. Think bouncy and touchable, not helmet hair.

    Yes! If you want to take your definition even further, layer our Curl Defining Gel on top of the Curl Shaping Cream while your hair is still damp. The two work really well together and give you that extra hold without any added weight or crunch.

    Yes, this formula was actually designed with you in mind. Hormonal changes can leave curls feeling finer, thinner, and harder to manage than they used to be. Because this is our most lightweight curl cream, it gives you definition and frizz control without ever weighing those changes down further. Your curl pattern is still there... sometimes it just needs a little help showing up.

    We're so confident you'll love it, we offer a 60-day money-back guarantee. Try it risk-free.

    Yes. It's free from silicones, sulfates and mineral oil, so it slots straight into a CGM routine, including co-washing.
