10 Curl Creams for Natural Hair That Really Work, Really!

by Jacqueline Samaroo

It’s no lie – curl creams have to work harder than most other natural hair products. We depend on them to do so much: add shine, limit frizz, stop flyaways, hydrate, moisturize, AND nourish hair. And, we haven’t even mentioned their biggest job – enhance curly hair’s natural curl pattern and give it plenty of bounce.

Here are 10 curl creams that are sure to get the job done!

Best for Dry, Damaged Hair

1. SheaMoisture Coconut and Hibiscus Curl Enhancing Smoothie
If you’re transitioning your curly hair to its natural state, then this is the curl cream you’ll want to be using. Its rich, nourishing oils give your hair the shine and bounce you’re looking for and the healthy, nutrients it needs to repair damage caused by relaxers and perms.

What’s in it? Shea butter, coconut oil, neem oil, and silk protein

2. Briogeo Curl Charisma Rice Amino + Avocado Leave-In Defining Cream
This leave-in defining cream packs in lots of the moisture textured hair needs for shape and definition. Its lightweight formula provides maximum hold and is made up of ingredients that help to strengthen hair, too..
What’s in it? Rice amino acids, avocado oil, quinoa extract, and tomato fruit ferment extract

Best for Type 4 Hair

3. Camille Rose Naturals Almond Jai Twisting Butter
This heavy, butter-like curl cream gives type 4 hair the moisture it thrives on. Its heavy consistency helps it stretch the tightest of coils and coat them in rich botanical oils. Use it for twist outs and enjoy the way it softens, smooths, and adds curl definition.

What’s in it? Almond milk, almond oil, honey, and pumpkin oil

4. African Pride Moisture Miracle Shea Butter & Flaxseed Oil Curling Cream
Finding the right natural haircare products for type 4 hair can be like finding the Holy Grail. That’s because type 4 is often dry and can be quite fragile. It needs the kind of moisture, hydration, and strength this curl cream gives as it styles hair into a curly, kinky miracle.

What’s in it? Grapeseed oil, Shea butter, coconut oil, and flaxseed oil

Best for Controlling Frizz

5. DevaCurl SuperCream Coconut Curl Styler
Curls plus frizz and are far from the ideal combination but it’s what most of the natural hair community is faced with. This is the curl cream to reach for when you need a super curly style without all of the distracting frizz. It softens strands, adds volume, and defines curls then throws in just the right amount of bounce.

What’s in it? Coconut oil, jojoba protein, and starch

6. Moroccanoil Curl Defining Cream
