What is a curl foam?
A Curl foam or a curl mousse, a staple in any curly hair routine, is a lightweight styling product designed to enhance and define your curls without weighing them down. It can provide hold, volume, and a touchable soft finish, making it ideal for those looking to boost their natural texture with lots of volume.
A foam can be used as a stand-alone product, or paired with a leave-in or lightweight styling gel or lotion to nourish and provide added definition.
Benefits of using a foam
The benefits of using a curl foam can:
- Boost volume, adding bounce and definition to your curls
- Enhances curl definition
- Controls frizz
- Lightweight texture
- Quick drying
- Easy to use
- Suitable for all hair types
How to use a curl foam
To use curl foam effectively, here’s what you need to do:
Start on clean hair.
It is important to start on fresh curls with no product build up. This will allow your curls to absorb any products that you apply next. Try our Citrus Superfruit Radiance Shampoo to give your scalp and curls that clean feeling, while boosting radiance and shine.
The star of the show. Meet our Sweet Hibiscus Curl Volumizing Foam.
Our alcohol-free and non-sticky volumizing foam not only enhances curl definition giving you intense voluminous curls, but it instantly lifts curls from the roots to the ends for long-lasting definition. It is also infused with ingredients like marshmallow root, sweet almond oil and hibiscus flower extract to nourish, add shine and strengthen the hair. It is the perfect foam for volumizing your styles - including wash & go’s, roller sets, twist and braid-outs.
Shake the bottle to activate the foam, dispense the amount needed into your palms, and distribute it evenly throughout your curls, scrunching as you go to encourage definition. You can then air dry or diffuse as normal. The result? Beautifully defined, voluminous curls that are full of life and bounce!
Flora & Curl tip: If you want a lot of volume and root lift, focus the foam on your roots first.
When to incorporate a foam into your routine
Incorporating a curl foam into your routine works best while your curls are damp. This could be after conditioning on washday, or refreshing your curls mid week.
Depending on your desired outcome, you can layer a foam alongside other products for maxim volume and curl enhancing definition. Our Quick Definition Styling Duo works perfectly alongside our foam.
