Honey curl custard

Definitely one of my favorite products. Works great for type 4 hair. You do not need to add anything to this product, it works great on its own. Great for curl definition or twist. You will see results after one use.

Honey curl foaming custard is great!

The curl pattern is amazing and you only need to use a small amount. The smell is fabulous.

High Shine & Definition

I LOVE this product! I use it when I two-strand twist my hair. The custard gives my hair an amazing shine. My grays are shiny, which makes growing gray gracefully a little easier. When I do a twist out, I have definition for days! This product stays in my rotation.

Really wanted to like this, but it left so many flakes! And now I have to wash my hair again to get them out 🙄
