The Whipped Butter Creme and Mango Curl Defining Custard are both excellent products designed to nurture and enhance your natural hair, but they serve slightly different purposes.

This makes it ideal for defining and styling your curls, providing them with the hydration and hold they need for a stunning look.

Both products can be valuable additions to your hair care routine, catering to various styling and hydration needs.

10. How do we find our hair porosity?
Discovering your hair porosity is a crucial step in understanding your hair's unique needs and selecting the right products for optimal care. Hair porosity essentially defines your hair's ability to absorb and retain moisture, which in turn impacts how it responds to various hair care treatments. To help you determine your hair porosity and make informed choices about your hair care routine, we've created a comprehensive guide that outlines the steps. You can find detailed instructions and visual guidance on this process in our Instagram post here. We believe that understanding your hair porosity is a valuable tool in achieving your hair goals, and we're here to assist you every step of the way.
