No. 1069

This curl cream is a leave-in conditioner designed to boost hydration and provide soft, flexible definition for waves and curls with added bounce and shine. This formulation is simply prepared with a ready-to-use conditioner concentrate, Cola®Lac SLB, to create moveable curls that are smooth and defined. Other feature ingredients include Cola®Quat Q80 for shine and Colonial BetaNat for moisturization and strength.

To use: Apply to damp hair from roots to ends, then allow to air-dry for a relaxed look or blow-dry with a diffuser for more bounce.
