How to Use

For newly braided styles: Apply 2–3 pumps over the finished braids, smooth the foam through the style, wrap and allow it to dry completely.

To refresh braids or Boho styles: Apply a small amount to frizzy areas and loose curls. Smooth gently with your hands, reshape the curls as needed and allow the style to dry fully.

For locs: Apply to the roots before retwisting, then work through each section and style as desired.

For wigs and weaves: Apply a small amount where hold or smoothing is needed, comb or brush the hair into place and allow it to air dry before finishing.

For curly or wavy extensions: Apply to damp hair or directly to dry, frizzy sections. Smooth or finger-shingle the curls into shape, then air dry or use a diffuser.

💜 Afrihair Tip

Use this foam after installing Boho Braids, Goddess Braids or Crochet Boho hair to smooth flyaways and set the finished style. Between wash days, apply a light layer to revive loose curls and help the style look freshly finished again. Start with a small amount to avoid buildup.
