Moroccanoil Curl Defining Cream

Product Information

This rich leave-in conditioner leaves naturally wavy and curly hair shiny, frizz-free, and touchably soft all day. It’s also infused with antioxidant-rich argan oil and vitamins to help hydrate and nourish hair. While Intense Curl Cream does define curls and waves, it has no hold and will not activate and amplify them in the way Curl Defining Cream does; instead, it helps bring out the best in your natural texture. It’s also ideal for low-maintenance styling: simply apply throughout damp or dry strands before styling or air-drying. (You can also use it throughout the day to refresh curls and control frizz).

Depending on the porosity of your hair, you may need either a heavier or lighter curl cream. Determine how well your hair can retain and absorb moisture, and choose a formula accordingly. A curl cream is a styling cream that helps to define your natural curls,” explains Annagjid “Kee” Taylor, celebrity hairstylist and owner of Deeper Than Hair in Philadelphia. “Not only will it give curls definition, but it will provide them with moisture you need to smooth your strands.” Curl creams are like the love child of a leave-in conditioner and a curl styling product. "They help to define and amplify natural curls, eliminate frizz and add soft hold," says Nunzio Saviano, a hairstylist and founder of the eponymous salon in New York City. " Curls need to be moisturized and protected to stay bouncy, separated, defined and smooth, and curl creams can offer the necessary hydration for a perfect style."Curl type: Finding your curl type is essential to finding the right curl cream. To find your curl type, hop in the shower: It's easiest to determine when hair is soaking wet. "Detangle hair with a wet comb or brush and then you can start to look for the pattern of the hair," explains Rivera. Different types of curly hair, from wavy and loose to tight curls and coils, range by number. "For instance, slight to more distinctive waves fall in [Type 2] curls from A to C in distinction," says Rivera, while "loose, more spiral-shaped, curls tend to fall into the Type 3 category, ranging from A to C in subcategories," explains Rivera. Coily or kinky hair (i.e. hair that forms tight curls in a zig-zag pattern from the scalp) is a Type 4, ranging from A to C in subcategories. According to Rivera, curl boosting sprays are typically a great choice for fine hair. "They can be spritzed evenly over hair and tend to be very lightweight," says Rivera. "This allows fine hair to maintain its curl rather than being weighted down." For medium hair, you can also look for a curl cream that is light in weight, which will help define the curl, while cutting down the frizz. And finally, if you have coarse hair, a denser curl cream can provide additional control and enhance style. Apply a generous amount of Moroccanoil Curl Defining Cream to clean, towel-dried hair. To activate and enhance curls, diffuse hair. For a more relaxed curl, let hair dry naturally. Of course, the curl cream that works best for you won’t necessarily be the right product for someone else’s spirals—it all depends on your curl pattern and your individual hair’s specific needs.To help you find your perfect match, we rounded up the best curl creams for a variety of textures and concerns. Curl creams also enhance and encourage your hair’s natural curl formation, says Irinel de León, celebrity hairstylist and brand ambassador for Ouidad. “In addition, curl creams are often more moisturizing and contain conditioning properties to help curls be the best version of themselves.”
