The Mane Choice Hair Type 4 Leaf Clover Manageability & Softening Remedy Mask for Coily & Kinky Hair 237ml/8.01 oz

Type 4 hair is not difficult. It is thirsty and tightly wound, and those two things together are what make a wash day long.

The coil pattern keeps water and product from travelling down the strand, and a dry section tangles on itself the moment you touch it. The Mane Choice made this mask for that specific combination rather than selling it as a general-purpose conditioner, and the difference shows in the weight of it.

It is a softening treatment first and a manageability treatment second, and the order matters. Softness on tightly coiled hair is what makes a section finger-detanglable in ten minutes instead of forty. Applied to clean, sectioned, damp hair and left to sit, it loosens enough for you to work through a section without fighting it, and holds that softness through drying so shrinkage does not arrive as a knot. On very dense hair, cover with a cap and give it longer than the instructions suggest.

237ml in the jar.

Made for coily and kinky textures, roughly 3b through 4c. If your hair is closer to a loose curl this will feel heavier than you need, and one of the lighter masks in the range will serve you better.
