SheaMoisture Kids Curling Styling Cream For Curl Definition Coconut & Hibiscus Curl and Detangle Kids Hair 6 oz

I just switched to this cream after using not your mother’s brand curl cream for the last 6ish months which I think left my toddler’s curls frizzy and undefined. What a difference this one makes! From the very first use, his curls transformed into absolute perfection – bouncy, shiny, well-defined ringlets that stay soft and frizz-free all day, even with all his running around and playing. The cream is lightweight and non-greasy, absorbs quickly, and has a yummy coconu smell! I love that it’s made with natural ingredients, no harsh chemicals, and it’s super gentle on his hair and scalp. A little goes a long way, so I know the jar will last forever. Styling his hair is now quick and easy, and his curls look adorable and healthy. This has QUICKLY become our holy grail product – highly recommend for any parent dealing with curly toddler hair!

I absolutely love this curl cream! It is thick and moisturizing and the smell is amazing! It is not greasy and you only need to use a little bit in the hair. I spray some water on my son’s hair first so it’s damp and then rub some of the cream through. The curls stay tight and in tact, definitely a great value for the cost. I still have over half of the jar left after several weeks and I use this daily.

This cream is very good works very well for combing and for definitely the curls without frizz of very good smell and the texture is silky and the best thing is that it does not leave the hair white after applying it

This cream works good on my 2 years boy's wavy hair!! It defines the hair without making it crunchy !! And the scent is wonderful

It's very good, it leaves my baby's curls super defined. It makes combing it easier and faster and is not greasy.

I loved this cream, my baby's hair looks well-defined with her curls and it smells really good

Best product for my daughter's hair. I spray with water, gently massage this in, and I'm able to comb her hair thoroughly.

As someone who loves experimenting with different curl creams, I had high expectations for the SheaMoisture Curling Styling Cream for Curl Definition (Coconut & Hibiscus). The brand has a loyal following, and I’ve seen rave reviews for this product, so I was excited to try it out for my daughter's natural curls. After a few weeks of use, here’s my honest review. Pros: Moisture & Hydration: One of the biggest positives for us is the moisturizing effect this cream has. Her curls can sometimes feel dry, but after using this, her hair feels softer and more hydrated. The Coconut Oil and Hibiscus Extract do a great job of locking in moisture, which is always a win when you have curly hair that tends to dry out easily. Scent: The fragrance is a big plus! It has a pleasant, tropical scent that’s not too overpowering, which I appreciate since some hair products can be quite strong. It’s refreshing and leaves her curls smelling good all day long without lingering too much. Curl Definition: This cream does provide decent curl definition—especially when used with the right technique. I did notice that her curls were more defined after applying the product, and the texture wasn’t crunchy or stiff, which is a huge plus. It also helped with frizz control, which is always a concern. Cons: Heavy for Fine Curls: While this product is rich and moisturizing, it feels a little heavy for her finer curls. I noticed that it sometimes weighed her hair down, leaving it looking flat rather than voluminous. If you have fine or low-density curls, you may find this cream a bit too thick and not the best for creating that bouncy curl look. Inconsistent Hold: We had mixed results when it came to hold. On some days, her curls lasted throughout the day with minimal frizz. On others, they fell flat or started to frizz up more quickly. I found that the curl definition was decent but not as long-lasting as I’d hoped. For longer-lasting hold, we needed to layer other products on top. Can Feel Greasy: On the days we used more than a small amount, her hair started to feel greasy as well as look greasy. The texture was a little heavier and left a slight residue, especially around the roots. I had to be careful not to over-apply it for her, which can be frustrating when you’re trying to achieve perfect curls with minimal product buildup. Final Thoughts: Overall, the SheaMoisture Curling Styling Cream is a good product, but it doesn’t quite live up to the hype for me. While it provides hydration, frizz control, and a good amount of curl definition, it’s not the most versatile for all curl types, particularly finer hair. If you have thicker, coarser curls or need intense moisture, this could work wonderfully. However, for those with finer curls, it may be a bit too heavy, and the hold might not be as long-lasting as you'd want. In summary, it’s not a bad product by any means, but it’s not our Holy Grail either.
