IntrinsiCurly Me Coiling Me Softly Curl Custard 250ml

A rich, vegan curl custard for kinky and coily Type 4 hair (4a, 4b, 4c) — a finishing leave-in styler that softens, hydrates, and elongates coils.

What it does

Deeply hydrates and softens even the driest coils, defines and elongates to reduce shrinkage, and nourishes each strand to help reduce breakage. Smooths frizz for a glossy finish without heavy buildup.

Highlighted ingredients
  • Shea butter — deeply softens and seals in moisture.
  • Coconut oil, milk & water — rich, lasting hydration for thirsty coils.
  • Avocado oil — nourishes and strengthens.
  • Chia & flaxseed — define curls and support elasticity.
Good to know

It's rich but absorbs well, so coils feel deeply moisturised rather than greasy or weighed down. Made for Type 4 hair, it also suits dry 3b/3c curls, and it's gentle enough for kids' curls. Ideal for twist-outs, braid-outs, and wash-and-gos, and it holds up against Cape Town's humidity and hard water. It's the richest styler in the range — fine or wavy hair will find it too heavy. Contains coconut, avocado, and shea (tree nuts) — patch test if you have nut sensitivities.

Formulation

Vegan, cruelty-free, and Curly Girl Method friendly. Free from silicones, sulphates, parabens, and drying alcohols.

How to use

On sopping-wet hair, work in sections. Emulsify a dollop between your palms until it turns white, then smooth from roots to tips in a downward motion to seal the cuticle. Scrunch upward to clump, layer Hold Me Baby Gel over the top for extra hold, scrunch out excess water with a microfibre towel, then air-dry or diffuse on low. Scrunch out any cast once hair is 100% dry.

Complete the routine

Cleanse with Mint to Be Co-Wash or Come Clean, condition with The One & Only Creamy Conditioner, define with Coiling Me Softly, then layer Hold Me Baby Gel for extra hold. Reset monthly with Just To Clarify. See the full IntrinsiCurly Me range, or read our complete guide to curly hair products in South Africa.

FAQs

Which hair type is it for? Best for Type 4a, 4b, and 4c coils, and great for dry 3b/3c curls that need extra moisture.

Custard or Crème De La Curl — which should I use? The custard is richer and more hydrating for thirsty coils; Crème De La Curl is lighter for looser curls that don't want weight.

Is it good for twist-outs and braid-outs? Yes — it gives the moisture and definition that sets long-lasting twist-outs, braid-outs, and wash-and-gos.

Does it help with shrinkage? Yes — with the right technique it elongates coils so your fro shows its true length.
