When to use it?
After conditioner or mask, just before styling to work on a clean, tangle-free base.

Tip: Use it with gentle movements, always from the tips to the roots, and take advantage of its ability to drain the hair without damaging it.

When to use it?
After applying your defining products, keep your hair still damp. Ideal for sectioning, distribute the products evenly throughout your hair and seal the shape before drying or blending.
