If you are newly natural and still have relaxed hair on the ends, this product may be too heavy. I would recommend trying our Design Essentials Almond & Avocado Curl Enhancing Mousse, which will define your curls and make the relaxed hair wavy due to it's lightweight formula. If you are totally natural or plan to wear "set" styles (sit under a dryer), our Honey Curl Forming Custard will definitely provide hold and show your natural curl pattern. Hope this helps. **Q: Is this curly girl friendly?** A: I am 4a/b/c, and this has been my favorite product so far! I used to be a product junkie. This gives the best definition without being sticky like KCCC, which I loved before I found this product. So yes, its curly girl friendly!!! **Q: Is this a gel? what color is it and what is the consistency of this product?** A: It is a gel. Very light but deifinitely a gel. **Q: Do you still apply a gel to the hair when using this?** A: I do not. It would be overkill for me to use this and another gel. My hair is somewhat fine, and doesn't need the extra boost of hold/definition. I will give it a try to see if it flakes (or any other weirdness) and update my answer with the results. ## Frequently Bought Together - Design Essentials Natural,Almond & Avocado Honey Curl Forming Custard, 12 Ounce - Design Essentials Natural Almond & Avocado, Moisturizing & Detangling Leave-In Conditioner, 12 Ounce --- ## 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/585611019-almond-and-avocado-honey-curl-forming-custard-354-g](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/585611019-almond-and-avocado-honey-curl-forming-custard-354-g) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-10-07*
