Curly & Coily Fantasia-IC Curl Custard - Define, Hydrate & Enhance Curls for Curly & Coily Hair 340g/11.99 oz

Custards are thicker than a cream and softer than a gel. That middle ground is the whole reason they exist: enough body to hold a coil in place, enough moisture that nothing sets hard.

Fantasia IC Curl Custard is a definer first. It sculpts and separates, then holds, so a twist-out or a wash-and-go keeps its shape into day two and day three rather than swelling out by lunchtime. The 340g jar is generous, which helps, because custard is a product people use in handfuls rather than pea-sized amounts.

Apply on damp hair in sections and rake it through, then air dry or diffuse. Going in on soaking wet hair gives softer, looser definition. On lightly damp hair you get more grip and tighter clumps, which is the version to use if your curls tend to drop.

It layers well too. A leave-in underneath and the custard over the top gives you moisture and hold in the right order, and that is usually the fix when definition keeps falling out by the afternoon. Used alone it still performs, though denser coils tend to want the moisture step first.

Best on 3b through 4c textures that want definition with no crunchy cast left behind.
