Avoid products with sulfate, as these dry your hair out. Don't use a lot of shampoo, and wash your hair with cold water so your hair can retain moisture better. **Q: Is this sulfate, paraben, silicone and alcohol free?** A: Yes this is an alcohol free product. The ingredient list is available so you can research and learn what alcohol is a fatty alcohol and which is a drying alcohol. **Q: Is this for Afro American hair or any curly hair?** A: I have 2b-2c hair and I'm Indian. The product makes my hair curly/wavy and a little frizzy so I have to use other products to get rid of the frizz. But I do like the product on my hair. I'm currently writing this with the product in my hair since I washed my hair today. **Q: Will this work on 2a/2b hair ?** A: I agree with Lailo. You'll have to try it for yourself. I found it overly heavy and felt like I was putting lard on my hair. It did zip for my curls and made it feel and look dirty ... No curl or wave at all. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cantu Moisturizing Curl Activator Cream with Shea Butter for Natural Hair, 12 fl oz - Cantu Coconut Curling Cream with Shea Butter for Natural Hair, 12 oz - Cantu Shampoo & Conditioner with Shea Butter for Natural Hair, 13.5 fl oz (Pack of 2) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/40317247-cantu-moisturizing-curl-activator-cream-with-shea-butter-for-natural](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/40317247-cantu-moisturizing-curl-activator-cream-with-shea-butter-for-natural) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-21*
