Q: Do you have to wash it out, or can it be apart of my curl routine and can be kept in?
submitted by Bellathecuriouscurlyhead - 3 months ago
A: Cantu Natural Hair Coconut Curling Cream is made to be left in your hair, so you don’t need to wash it out. Just apply to damp hair and style as part of your curl routine. It helps define curls, control frizz, and keep your hair moisturized.
submitted byCantu Product Expert - 3 months agoBrand expert
Q: How and where do you put it in your hair? Do you massage it or put it on the edges of your hair? Or do you just put it on your hair and leave it?
submitted by Prit - 6 months ago
A: Hello - Please apply Cantu Curling Cream to damp hair, working in sections so every strand gets coated. Gently massage it through from root to tip. Focus on distributing it evenly, especially on the ends where your hair tends to be driest. Then style as usual.

submitted by John doe - 6 months ago

Q: Does this take the place of a leave in conditioner?
submitted by SusanL777 - 7 months ago

Q: Can this product be used daily or more than once a day?
submitted by Jay - 5 years ago
A: Hi! Great questions. Our Coconut Curling Cream is a heavier styling aid that was created to help define and moisturize braid outs, twist outs, and other natural hair styles! You can use the product more than once a day, but if you’re looking for more of a moisturizer check out our Curl Activator Cream.

Q: Does this cream give you curls if you have straight hair? If not, can you recommend one that does?
submitted by Gaby - 5 years ago
A: H Gabyi! The Cantu Coconut Curling Cream was created to help define and enhance natural curls, coils, and waves. This product will not create curls if you have naturally straight hair. Have you ever tried a flexi rod or perm rod set to help you get the curly look you desire? You won’t regret it.

Lightweight moisture with amazing curl definition
I’ve been using the Cantu Coconut Curling Cream and I honestly love how it defines my curls without making them feel heavy or greasy. The texture is rich but absorbs really well into my hair, leaving it soft, hydrated, and smelling amazing. It helps reduce frizz and gives my curls a natural, bouncy look that lasts all day. I also noticed less breakage when I comb my hair after using it. Great for anyone who wants moisture + definition!

Curling cream
This coconut curl cream is very nice. It adds a good hold to my hair and makes my curls look more defined. I have wavy hair and use this when I want my hair to have more defined curls. It does not weigh my hair down. It has a nice texture and scent and the hold lasts.

Holy Grail for Curly Hair
I’m biracial and I’ve tried every product for curly hair you can think of…but nothing beats Cantù Coconut Curling Cream!! It’s everything you need and ever wanted in one product…soft frizz-free bouncy curls, minimizes split ends, doesn’t weigh hair down or make it hard/crunchy, just beautiful shiny and healthy curls!! I personally wash my hair and while in the shower I flip my head upside down and apply the product throughout my hair, wrap in a turban towel, and once I’m done getting ready I just take the towel off and scrunch my hair a little with my hands and walk out the door and let it air dry! I’m never going back since finding the holy grail of curly hair products and I guarantee you won’t either!! My only regret is waiting so long to finally try it!

I’ve been using the Cantu Coconut Curling Cream for a while now and it’s honestly one of my favorite affordable curl products! The texture is super rich and creamy, and a little goes a long way. It defines my waves and curls without making them crunchy, and leaves my hair soft, shiny, and hydrated. The coconut scent is sweet but not overpowering and lasts all day. I also love that it’s made with shea butter and free from harsh ingredients like mineral oil or sulfates. My hair feels nourished every time I use it, and the packaging makes it easy to scoop out just the right amount. Perfect for anyone who wants bouncy, frizz-free curls that look moisturized and healthy!

Best Thing That Has Ever Happened To Me.
This product really defines your curls and keeps them moisturized throughout the entire day! No need to refresh or damp your hair either! Works best dry or you can decide to wet your hair before but as I've said this product us by far the best thing that has happened to me haha.

For curly head girlies
This is a good curl cream. I like this cream. It smells good and has your hair feeling so soft. I just think this is more for really curly hair rather than just wavy hair.

The packaging feels sturdy and easy to scoop from, though it’s a bit bulky for travel. I love its texture—rich, buttery, and smooth—which glides through my curls effortlessly. The ingredients like shea butter and coconut oil deeply moisturize and define my hair without harsh chemicals. The scent is a warm, tropical coconut aroma that I find refreshing but not overwhelming. For hold, it gives my curls soft, natural definition with less frizz and lasting moisture. My hair feels soft, shiny, and bouncy—not crunchy. I’ve learned that a small amount works best to avoid heaviness. Overall, it’s my favorite cream for hydrated and beautifully defined curls!

This product is the Cantu Coconut and Shea Butter
This product is the Cantu Coconut and Shea Butter Curling Cream. I love it anytime, for any type of hairstyle, and for hydrating my hair strands 100%. In addition to the formula, it is made with a unique moisturizing blend of shea butter, olive oil, coconut oil, grape seed oil, avocado oil, almond oil, jojoba oil, and mango seed oil to provide volume and definition. They offer a coconut aroma, but the specific notes can vary from a sweet and creamy tropical coconut to a blend with other ingredients such as shea butter or citrus oils.
