Design Essentials Almond & Avocado Curl Stretching Creme 16oz is a moisture-rich, weightless cr�me specially formulated to elongate and define highly textured 3C–4C curls and coils � smoothing, conditioning, and reducing frizz for controlled, beautiful, stretched styles with maximum shine.

Key Benefits for Natural, Curly and Coily Hair

This curl stretching cr�me is a game-changer for those with very curly and coily hair textures who want to add length and elongation to their natural curl pattern without resorting to heat. The formula adds gentle weight to 3C and 4C hair, encouraging the curl to stretch and elongate beautifully whilst maintaining definition and moisture. The result is longer-looking, more elongated curls that retain their natural texture without shrinkage taking over.

The rich botanical blend of almond butter, shea butter, jojoba, and olive oils delivers superior moisture and intense shine � leaving hair looking and feeling deeply nourished with every application. Frizz is controlled throughout the day, and the cr�me creates a protective coating around each strand that shields hair from environmental humidity and everyday friction. Whether used for twist-outs, braid-outs, or wash-and-go stretched styles, this cr�me consistently delivers defined, frizz-free results with a beautiful, healthy sheen.

Free from parabens, paraffin, petrolatum, mineral oil, and silicones, this is a clean formulation built for regular use on highly textured hair. The 16oz size offers exceptional value for those with longer or denser natural hair who apply cr�me to their full head on every wash day.

Hero Ingredients and What They Do

Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil nourishes and softens each strand, delivering vitamins E and B to improve hair texture and impart a luminous shine. Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil penetrates deeply into the cortex of the hair to strengthen it from within, preventing breakage and providing the intense moisture that keeps coily hair supple and resilient during styling. Together, almond and avocado create an incredibly nourishing moisture base that sets this cr�me apart.

Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter seals the cuticle and locks in moisture for lasting hydration and softness throughout the day. Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil mimics the hair’s natural sebum to balance moisture levels and add a beautiful shine without greasiness. Crambe Abyssinica Seed Oil is a highly penetrating botanical oil that conditions and strengthens the hair shaft, whilst Keratin Amino Acids and Silk Amino Acids smooth the cuticle and improve elasticity for stronger, more resilient curls.

How to Use

Apply to clean, damp hair from roots to ends, ensuring full coverage from scalp to tips. Working in sections, comb, twist, or finger-style hair as desired � the cr�me works best when sections are taken smaller for maximum stretch and definition. For elongated twist-outs or braid-outs, apply to damp sections, twist or braid tightly, and allow to dry fully before unravelling. Air dry, diffuse on a low heat setting, or sit under a hooded dryer for a more controlled finish.

Who Is This Curl Stretching Cr�me For?

This curl stretching cr�me is formulated for hair types 3C through to 4C � particularly those with very curly, coily, and kinky hair that experiences significant shrinkage. It is ideal for women of African and Caribbean heritage who want to elongate their natural curl pattern without heat, and for those seeking a rich, deeply moisturising cr�me that controls frizz and adds definition to dense or tightly coiled hair. It is also well-suited to those with mixed-heritage or biracial hair who want to enhance their curl pattern with added stretch and definition.
