Hair that has been relaxed, coloured, permed or texturised takes a different kind of beating to hair that has only ever been styled. The cuticle is already open, so moisture leaves faster and breakage shows up sooner. This leave-in cream is aimed squarely at that hair.

Argan oil does the main work, softening the strand and putting shine back into lengths that have gone dull from heat and chemical processing. It is a cream rather than a lotion, so it has enough body to sit on dry, over-styled hair instead of vanishing on contact. Elasticity improves with repeat use, and elasticity is what stops mid-lengths snapping.

Apply to damp hair after washing, concentrating on the ends and any section that feels rough to the touch. Leave it in. The 16 oz / 453 gm tub is the large size, so it makes sense if you are reaching for it several times a week rather than occasionally. Suits 2c through to 4b textures, and it is one of the few Cantu leave-ins that works as well on chemically treated hair as it does on natural.

Application tips

Warm a scoop between your palms before it goes near the hair, since a thick cream applied cold sits in lumps.

Damp hair, ends and mid lengths, then comb through. It holds up under a blow dry or a roller set, and it is worth topping up the ends on the days between washes when they start feeling rough again.

Results

Chemically processed hair stops feeling like straw within a couple of applications. The strand softens, the surface smooths, and dull lengths pick up shine.

Elasticity is the change that matters most. Hair that stretches instead of snapping survives being combed, tied and styled, so mid lengths stop breaking at the same point every month.
