Everyone has a preference; but heres what you need to know about what you should be using on your hair!
A curl cream is essentially a lotion for your curls. Although just like a lotion over the course of the day, the cream will wear off leaving your texture fuzzy and dry. With a cream there is almost never any crunch (aka a cast).
A cast is essential to having your curls last for days while still being frizz free. Here at Adored we never recommend using a cream as your main source of hold.
Creams can be used as a point of moisture or hydration but when used alone will become a fuzzy mess in a matter of hours.
A curl gel is a tried and true option for all curl textures. A gel will allow you to form a cast over the hair which is what allows curls to last for days!
There are a multitude of gels with different hold that range from a soft cast to a strong cast. There is something for everyone.
Even if you can’t stand crunch at all, you can always remove it by scrunching it out with a serum. So what we recommend is 100% a gel. It will give you plump curls that last for days.
If you cant part with your favorite cream, use a bit of it under your gel for hydration. There really is a product that will work for everyone.
