Natural curls and moisture
This Cantu curl activator has been my go-to for many years. I'm already on my fourth bottle, and it's almost gone! I love it because, besides smelling amazing, it defines my curls like no other product. It leaves them looking natural and feeling hydrated, without leaving any residue in my hair. I'll definitely keep using it!

A great product to use on natural hair.
The consistency is creamy and feels good on my hair, it doesn't dry your hair out, it keeps it well moisturized. It makes it easy to style your hair without the kinks.

Curls days made better 🥑
My curls have been loving this avocado curl activator from Cantu lately. It helps define my hair without making it feel crunchy or heavy, and I like that my curls still feel soft after it dries. I usually use a small amount on damp hair and it gives my curls a more fresh and healthy look.

Curl-Activating Cream
This curl activator isn’t heavy at all—provided you use the right amount. You simply need to apply a small quantity (depending on your hair type) and rub it thoroughly between your hands to activate it before applying. It leaves the hair feeling very soft, and it comes at an affordable price.

Defines curls, adds light moisture
I’ve used this curl activator a few times, and it helps my curls look more defined with less frizz. The texture is creamy and spreads easily through damp hair. It adds moisture without making my hair feel stiff, though using too much can feel a bit heavy. The scent is pleasant and not too strong.

Great quality and a great price
First of all this product smells amazing, which ad we already shoukd know is a definite plus for me. The bounce, texture, and curl definition it gives are certainly there, but that hydration is what really stands out for me.

Not for me!
Have used this in the past for my curly hair. It didn’t suit Me at all. Felt very heavy, not sure if I put too much on. Texture was nice and also liked the smell. Gave it away to my friend whose daughter has Afro hair and they swear by it!

Why I am not fond of this hair cream.
The reason I give this product a 3 stars out of 5 is mainly because I personally do not find this cream to be all that moisturizing for my kind of curls. I have 3c/4c textured curls and I find that this cream is too heavy for my hair. I usually find that I am left with product residue and this cream usually sits on top of my hair instead of truly going into my strands and fully moisturizing them. I do not find this product to repair my hair or fix damage significantly.

Top product! It leaves curls incredibly defined and frizz-free. It's lightweight, smells amazing, and a little goes a long way. Perfect for everyday use, highly recommended! Product highlights: Key ingredients: Contains avocado oil and pure shea butter, which provide deep hydration. Results: Enhances the natural curl pattern and adds healthy shine without a greasy feel. Formula: Silicone-free, making it suitable for those following natural care routines or the Curly Girl Method.

Defined and super hydrated curls!
I have tried several curl activators, but the Cantu Avocado Hydrating Curl Activator has become one of my favorites. What I like the most is that it leaves my curls defined without that 'stiff' or hard feeling that other products leave. Thanks to avocado oil and shea butter, it provides a lot of hydration and helps control frizz throughout the day. In addition, it smells incredible and a little product yields a lot. It's a basic if you're looking for a natural look with movement!"

Great curl cream
I have 2c-3b curls that bounce beautifully. Cantu Avocado Curl Activator takes my curls to the next level, enhancing their look and feel. It's a fantastic product offered at a reasonable price, and I wouldn't want to style my hair without it!
