HOW TO USE

Apply to wet hair: Apply a small amount to each section, focusing on mid-lengths and ends.

Distribute evenly: Rake through with your fingers to ensure even coverage, then use a brush to style or define curls as desired.

Style as desired: Scrunch to enhance the pattern, then air dry or diffuse for your preferred finish. For added hold, layer with your favorite Bounce Curl gel before diffusing.

How to use in a Bounce Curl routine:
Cleanse: Begin with a Bounce Curl shampoo or cleansing treatment to remove buildup and prep curls for styling.
Condition: Follow with a Bounce Curl conditioner or mask for added softness and moisture.
Prep: Towel-blot excess water, leaving hair wet. Apply Hydra-Lite Styling Cream evenly through sections to prime and define.
Style: Rake or brush through to distribute, then scrunch to encourage curl formation. Air dry or diffuse for soft, flexible definition.
Refresh: Lightly mist hair with water, apply a small amount to areas needing touch-ups, and scrunch or diffuse to reshape.
Finish: Once dry, scrunch gently to break any cast and reveal hydrated, bouncy curls that move naturally.
