This product provides a medium-hold and includes apple cider vinegar to help refresh the scalp and reduce flaking & dryness in-between shampoos.
Instructions:
1. Place a generous amount along the parting of a section in preparation to braid and blend the gel in with a brush or fine-tooth comb to smooth the hair into place. Adjust part as needed after the hair has been smoothed to achieve a more precise parting and proceed to braid.
2. For coarse, frizzy, or thick hair when braiding the ends. Apply to the ends of hair in order to keep the ends moisturized, control flyaways, and to seal the hair to prevent it from breaking when wearing braids.
3. Refresh your hairline while wearing locs, braids, twists, or a weave by placing on the edges and using a small brush to smooth and define the hairline and guide frizzy hair into place. Apply 2-3 pumps on to the roots of wig and comb hair into the desired placement, allow to air dry and style as desired. Apply generously on the roots of locs prior to retwisting. Refresh curly hair extensions and apply liberally to wet hair or directly to dry frizzy areas. Ensure the mousse is saturated on the hair from root to end and allow to air dry or dry with a diffuser.
This guide is for women seeking to maintain and refresh protective hairstyles such as braids, locs, twists, and weaves using the Cantu Protective Styles Set & Refresh Foam. The primary benefit is the ability to set and refresh styles without leaving behind residue or causing crunchiness. A potential caveat is that individual hair types may react differently, so a small test area is recommended before full application. This product is formulated to set braided styles and wigs, refresh braids and curly hair extensions, and lay down edges, offering a medium hold and incorporating apple cider vinegar for scalp refreshment and reduced flaking.
