This has to be one of the best products I've used. For me, and I think most curlies, our goals are soft curls that are also defined, but also not weighed down. Which can be conflicting goals that cause us to try and find the best balance between leave-in conditioners, gels, and creams. This product will substitute for all other styling products by moisturizing your hair, giving it definition, and not weighing it down. It also smells really nice. One of my new staples, I love this stuff!

I am about to hit my one year natural hair journey, and in doing so I have been trying to find a inexpensive but effective styling product, that keeps my hair moisturized yet defines my coily/springy hair. So far I have used this product twice and have gotten amazing results. Cantu curling crème lives up to the hype and then some I combined this product with their Cantu daily oil moisturizer + coconut oil and BAM, spectacular soft, springy, moisturized, smell good, curls that last. I have now found a staple product that I will continue to repurchase and use for years to come. I highly recommend this product for new and experienced naturals. Hope this helps. Coilyme.

I was looking for a cream that would moisturize and define my hair without making it sticky or crunchy and I have to say this stuff is the best product I have used, I love it! It controls my frizz very well too. The price is great for this product I hope it wont get discontinued or change like most good products do. Keep in mind though this product Has a soft hold which works for my taste leaving the curls bouncing with a natural look. If you like big hair no frizz and nice defined curls than this is the best product in the market to buy. I love it sooooo much!

I really Ike this stuff. I know that God had answered my prayer when he created this curl cream. It moisturizes as well as creates the slip that we 4c sisters desire. This gets the two snaps up!

I love it for when I do my twists for my twists out styles. It leave my hair soft and tangle free and very shiny! I don't like using it as my wash-n-gos go though. I just don't like the way my curls look when I use this. I prefer gels for my wash-n-gos.

I bought the product last weekend and I am totaly pleased. I put it on Sunday after washing my hair, and my curl definition is still great and its Tuesday. I have only had to spray my hair with a little sheen to give it shine. I reccomend this product.The price is right and it doesn't take alot of product the get the right look.

i ran to the store to buy the deep mask treatment from SM and they were wiped out of everything...and i saw CANTU and the word NEW..i am not a fan of their leave in conditioner which leaves white residue on my hair and its crunchy..i have 3c hair..but with the humidity in Miami..it can look like 4a from frizz and swelling up..THIS STUFF IS NOTHING LIKE THE LEAVE IN CONDITIONER..its white thick paste-ish lotion..smells great..its a little heavy because my hair is very fine but i dont mind because i need the extra stuff to keep this mane tamed...it doesnt really define curls from the go..but its great for TWIST OUTS and as a moisturizer...GREAT BUY LADIES..just iffy about the petroleum being so high on the list of ingredients...so i have to use A POO...which is why i didnt give it 5 stars...enjoy

despite how much i hate cantu's shampoo and conditioner (which doesn't condition nothing) this curly cream is actually great. i use it as my styling product. it gives me defined, shiny, tight, but soft curlS every time i use it. When i run out i can tell a huge difference in my curls with out it. TRY IT!

I've been using product for almost 2 months for my twist outs and flat twist out and I must say it does wonders for definition! Great hold and keeps my hair very soft!

This was nice a thick and creamy, perfect for adding some sheen and moisture to my daughter's 4a/b hair when doing a twist out. I like it for my edges and to smooth out ponytails. It works better on damp hair than dry and a little goes a long way

This product I LOVE it. It definitely defines my curls especially any twist out I do. It isn't heavy on my hair. And it also softens and moisturize my hair. Great smell. And it doesn't give me shrinkage. And I can tell ya I dislike putting on creams that give me shrinkage.

I am absolutely loving this product! I finally have enough length for twists & twist outs so this is what I have been using and it truly defines my curls as well as softens my hair.. My hair is LOVING cantu's natural hair line so far :)

I bought this product because it looked like an imitation of Shea Moisture's Curl Enhancing Smoothie and I wanted to see if it worked as well. And actually, it works better than SMCES. It is lighter and creamier and delivers more consistent results. I apply it as directed, by sectioning hair and applying to each section. This stuff smells wonderful but the smell fades once your hair is dry, so its not overpowering at all. I was hesitant to buy the coconut curling cream because it contains a few ingredients that are considered undesirable in the natural hair world (petrolatum, phenoxyethanol) but you can't argue with results! Bottom line: this stuff works.

I've tried this twice now. The first time I used too much and it made my hair heavy and greasy (I'm a 3b with some 3a and 3c curls here and there). Second time I used a tiny bit, maybe the size of a large pea or a lima bean in total, and it really enhances the curls and makes my hair very soft, even a bit limp. Tomorrow, for 2nd day hair, I think I'll add some Angell mixed with Marrakesh oil, which is my normal routine. I think this product definitely bears working with. It definitely smells great.

I saw the Cantu Shea Butter Coconut Curling Creme this weekend when I was in Walmart. I usually use the conditioning creme when I do my braid-outs. I tried this new stuff and my braid out was much softer and has a better shine. Not greasy to the touch at all. I love it!! It smells great too. I highly recommend it!

I love the smell of this product. It has zero hold of your going for a wng but if you apply a gel on top of it it's great. The price is cheap. My hair was very moisturized.

I bought this curling cream yesterday and it smells awesome!!! I tried it for my wash and go and i did not like the hold but i smelled great the entire day. I think it will work better on a twist out or hairstyles like that.
