## Questions & Answers

**Q: I've started my natural hair journey,  this is month 5 of no relaxers.. will this help me get my natural curl pattern as I transition?**
A: Our Honey Curl Forming Custard will enhance and make curls more defined when styling. If you are newly natural and still have relaxed hair on the ends, this product may be too heavy. I would recommend trying our Design Essentials Almond & Avocado Curl Enhancing Mousse, which will define your curls and make the relaxed hair wavy due to it's lightweight formula. If you are totally natural or plan to wear "set" styles (sit under a dryer), our Honey Curl Forming Custard will definitely provide hold and show your natural curl pattern. Hope this helps.

**Q: Is this curly girl friendly?**
A: I am 4a/b/c, and this has been my favorite product so far! I used to be a product junkie. This gives the best definition without being sticky like KCCC, which I loved before I found this product. So yes, its curly girl friendly!!!

**Q: Is this a gel? what color is it and what is the consistency of this product?**
A: It is a gel. Very light but deifinitely a gel.

**Q: Do you still apply a gel to the hair when using this?**
A: I do not. It would be overkill for me to use this and another gel.  My hair is somewhat fine, and doesn't need the extra boost of hold/definition.  I will give it a try to see if it flakes (or any other weirdness) and update my answer with the results.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product!!!!
*by P***H on July 3, 2025*

This product is the best!!!! I have natural curls, and this gel custard takes my curls to the next level. I get so many compliments that I keep a picture of the product on my phone. Curls are soft, no flaking at all!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good moisturizer
*by S***R on August 28, 2025*

Curls and moisturizers nicely, will definitely buy again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best I've found
*by X***X on August 20, 2024*

I have extremely curly long hair, and while I use multiple products to keep it naturally curly, nothing I've found keeps the curl from frizzing out or going flat after one day. This keeps my hair soft (not crunchy), but enables me to keep the curls formed for up to 3-4 days with light water spritz each morning without washing my hair and starting the styling process over. Excellent! and smells good too.
