DIY Curl Defining Hair Treatment for 3C to 4C Hair

 

Ingredients: 

• 4 tbsp SKALA Mais Cachos for Hair Type 3ABC - 2 IN 1 Conditioning Treatment Cream & Cream to Comb. 
• 2 tbsp jojoba oil (for lightweight moisture and scalp health)
• 1 tbsp raw honey (for natural humectant properties, drawing in moisture)
• 1.5 tbsp mango butter (for deep nourishment and softening)
• 10 drops essential oil (optional, for fragrance and added benefits, e.g., lavender for soothing)

Instructions:

1. Melt the Mango Butter: In a double boiler or a heat-safe bowl over simmering water, gently melt the mango butter until it’s liquefied. Stir occasionally to ensure it melts evenly, then remove it from the heat once melted. Let it cool slightly, but don’t allow it to solidify again.

2. Mix the Oils: In a separate bowl, mix the jojoba oil with the melted mango butter. Add 10 drops of your favorite essential oil (if using) and stir the mixture to combine the oils thoroughly.

3. Blend in the Honey: Slowly drizzle the honey into the oil mixture while continuously stirring. The honey will act as a humectant, attracting moisture to the hair, which is key for curl definition.

4. Incorporate the SKALA Mais Cachos: Gradually add the SKALA Mais Cachos 2-in-1 Conditioning Cream to the oil and honey mixture. Stir vigorously until the ingredients form a smooth, creamy blend. The SKALA cream will help detangle and define curls while locking in the moisture from the other ingredients.

5. Apply the Treatment: Start with clean, damp hair. Section your hair into 4-6 parts for easier application, depending on thickness. Using your fingers or a wide-tooth comb, work the mixture through your hair from root to tip, ensuring even distribution. Focus on areas where curl definition is most challenging, like the ends or the crown.

6. Heat Treatment (Optional): For a deeper treatment, cover your hair with a plastic cap and sit under a hooded dryer or use a heated cap for 20-30 minutes. The heat will help the treatment penetrate more deeply, enhancing curl formation.

7. Rinse and Style: After 30 minutes, rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Style your hair as usual, using the SKALA Mais Cachos cream as a leave-in for extra curl definition or apply your favorite styling gel for hold.

Results:

This treatment will leave your curls soft, defined, and hydrated without weighing them down. The combination of SKALA Mais Cachos with jojoba oil, honey, and mango butter works to enhance curl pattern while improving elasticity and moisture retention. Perfect for maintaining defined, bouncy curls for days!
