Hey Naturals!!
Recently Cantu Shea Butter has been getting my business so I had to start reviewing the products I've tried! This product is a moisturizer. The packaging states that it can be used on curly, kinky and wavy hair to moisturize, detangle, soften and provide shine. So let's see if the claims are true. Each category will get a score of 1-5 KoilyKinks!
Softness - 5 KKs
Yes yes yes!! My hair was like a soft pillow after using this product. I've don't both braidouts and twistouts with it and no complaints! My 4C hair is usually dry and crunchy/crispy, NOT a good look. This is why I started doing the LOC and LCO methods but curlfriend I had no need for layering with this bad boy!!
Moisture - 4 KKs
Moisture galore, do you hear me?? The only reason I don't give this product a 5 is for the heaviness. If you use too much of this product or have thinner strands, your hair will be weighed down. But do not confuse my message, this stuff is packed with moisture and will have your hair feeling right for days! I apply this on wash day to style and don't have to remoisturize!!! (However, you should know your porosity)
Consistency- 5 or 3.5 KKs (Seasonal)
I love a thick and creamy hair lotion/moisturizer and that's what you will get from this product. My only thought is that this lotion is best for the winter months. I can't see myself using this in the warmer season as I prefer lighter moisturizers in summer months. So this is strictly based on preference.
Shine - 5 KKs
Yes GAWD!!!! If you have dry, dull 4C hair like myself go get a bottle!!! My hair not only felt great it looked great, especially close up! No complaints here! I'm lovin it!!!
The Wrap Up
I can't say this hair lotion is a new staple of mine but it's definitely getting me through this winter season. Great moisturizer! Period. Cantu never disappoints me. Love it!!!!!
