We've Got Answers

Can your Air Dry Cream be used with other Hair Care products (like a leave in conditioner or detangler) or is it better to use it on its own? How is it different from using a normal leave in conditioner?

Yes it can! We recommend starting with our Revitalizing 3 in 1 Leave In by applying to damp hair and combing through to ends and then finish with applying our Revitalizing Air Dry Cream. The difference between the two products is that our 3 in 1 Leave in acts as a deep conditioning detangler focusing on hydration, and our Air Dry Cream was made to tame frizz while enhancing the the natural shape and style of our hair.

What hair types does the Air Dry Cream work on? Will it work on curly hair?

Yep! Our Air Dry Cream can be used on all hair types; including straight hair, waves, curls, and coils.

How is this different than your Curls Styling Cream?

Our Air Dry Cream works with all hair types, embraces natural style/texture, and helps tame fly aways while leaving our hair feeling soft and shiny. Our Curls Cream is specifically formulated to work with natural curl patterns to add curl definition and add extra moisture for soft touchable curls.

Can this be used on dry hair?

We made our Air Dry cream to give hair what it needs to air dry smoothly. But you could always add a little extra product onto flyway’s once your hair is dry if you feel like it!

What does UV protection mean?

Hair care with “UV protection” means that its formula is made to help protect and repair natural or color treated hair against UV radiation (Not an SPF).

Will it make my hair crunchy, like a mousse?

No crunch. This product was made to give our hair a soft, flexible hold.

"Love, love. Switching to the one for curls. This product has brought out the beach waves i did not know i had!!"

Susann C. (4/5)

Really good styling product!

"This is a pretty good styling cream for natural waves, i recommend it on damp hair and to use a pretty good amount (unless you have thin hair) it definitely got crunchy when i used it on dry hair. But it works well for styles that set overnight! I like to braid or heatless curler my mid length hair overnight and this combined with the sea salt spray from sunbum seems to work super well! Not sure how it works with heat styles"

It’s a wonderful product. Helps

"It’s a wonderful product. Helps keep my hair from being frizzy and even works after getting in and out of the water. Will definitely be purchasing again and again!"

Don't use as sunscreen. . . pls

"Story time. I am as white as white gets, and I recently got a paddle board for my birthday. A few days ago I went and used my paddle board for the first time. The UV that day was freakin 11, so I LATHERED myself in what I believed to be Sun Bum sunscreen. Unfortunately…I grabbed the wrong bottle and ended up rubbing hair cream all over myself. I LATHERED MYSELF IN HAIR CREAM!!! I ENDED UP SPENDING HOURS IN THE SUN ON A UV 11 DAY WITH SPF ZERO ON. Needless to say Sun Bum hair cream DOES NOT make a good sunscreen…surprise surprise. So anyways I am freshly burnt to a crisp. Maybe Sun Bum, y’all can get cracking on inventing a product that is hair cream and sunscreen combined in one. This would really help stupid people like me who don’t bother reading the labels on their products before using them. In closing I would like to apologize to planet Earth and humanity for being so grievously incompetent :hands_heart_light_skin_tone: Oh, and I haven’t used it on my hair yet. So maybe JUST MAYBE this hair cream works better when you use it as a hair cream."

This works great! It manages

"This works great! It manages my flyaways and smooths out my air dry hair so I don't look unkempt when I skip the hairdryer. I don't shampoo everyday, and even after a few days it still seems to be working without making my hair seem dirty any faster. I recommend it! This will save me from picking between immediately sweating right after a shower so I can blow dry my hair vs. my hair looking bad this summer."
