How to Use:

1. Start on clean, damp hair that has been washed and conditioned as usual.
2. Section the hair for easier application, especially for thick, curly, or coily textures.
3. Apply a generous amount of Cantu Avocado Hydrating Curl Activator to each section from roots to ends, focusing on areas prone to dryness and frizz.
4. Distribute evenly using fingers or a wide-tooth comb, then scrunch curls upward or style as desired (twist-outs, braid-outs, wash-and-go, etc.). Use daily or as needed. Can be used on damp hair for best curl activation or on dry hair to refresh curls.
5. Allow hair to air dry or diffuse with a blow-dryer on low heat. For extra hold or styling versatility, layer with your preferred Cantu gel or styling product.
