Application Tips:
- Apply anti-humidity spray after applying any leave-in products.
- Using a bit of serum can enhance curls and add definition when scrunched lightly.
My Favorites:
- Anti-Humidity Finishing Spray: A light mist that provides hold to curls without any stiffness.
- Serum with Jojoba Oil: Gives shine with no weight while combating frizz.
