Does anyone use cantu?

My hair is long and curly, not tights curls. I use redken shampoo and conditioner and shockwaves gel but want a change.

There are so many different products in the cantu range its so confusing. Not even sure what the difference is between the avocado or normal range, can anyone explain.

I'm looking for a shampoo and conditioner. something to style my hair (I diffuse) and something I can use in between washes to bring back the curls.

any good suggestions

Hello

I use some cantu I think? Do you do curly girl? If so, this is my routine -

As I Am co-wash - excellent stuff, Amazon
Then whatever conditioner you like - I like Bleach London (fabulous stuff) and also Faith in Nature aloe vera conditioner - its thin and runny and doesn't smell that great but it seems to be really amazing as a product.

To style I use Aveda Be Curly - £20 or so but the best stuff.

I then use a Cantu leave in oil thing, just to take the fluff off after diffusing.

I hope you find your holy grails!

I like all the cantu products, I have thick, wavy hair.

I have just bought the conditioner (I use faith in nature shampoo) and use the leave in cantu conditioner and then the custard as a gel.

It's taken a fair amount of trial and error but this combination seems to get a decent result.

I love cantu products. I prefer the smell of the normal range so don’t bother with they avocado one. The shampoo and conditioner are both nice and the comeback curl is brilliant for in between washes. I put in in a mist spray bottle and mix it with water.

I recently started using the cantu avocado curl activator, with the cantu avocado mousse in my daughters hair. Her texture is curly when wet, but dries into a wavey slightly frizzy texture, but heat loosens her my All curls have stayed amazingly defined with the avocado range.

Sorry pressed send too early
Pics below of usual texture, and then after with the cantu avocado stuff. Curls stay defined all day or longer

Also @howaboutthistime
The other cantu products don't work in her hair, it all just dries out, so I'm surprised at the avocado stuff tbh
