Enhance your hair’s natural texture with The Body Shop Cottonseed Curl Boost ($12.00). This heat-activated formula defines and gives life to wavy and curly hair. Rich in fatty acids, cottonseed oil de-frizzes hair for smooth definition. A polymer derived from maize uses ‘curl memory’ to give your hair more bounce and vitality. Beyond a styling product, Curl Boost also conditions hair with wheat protein, community trade organic honey and panthenol.
Apply a small amount to damp hair, and shape curls or waves with your fingers. Then, blow dry or use a curling iron to activate the ingredients and maximize results. For more volume, apply heat to the roots of the hair, with your head flipped upside down.

Uplifting, citrus scents always remind us of summer- now they will also remind us of manageable hair and strong, long lasting hold! Korres Lime Styling Gel ($15.00) is great for any style that requires a lot of hold. It also protects your hair from the odors of cigarette smoke and other air pollutants with the natural resin Chitosan, which halts your hair’s absorption of less than attractive smells. No dried up flaky product buildup here- a combo of Macadamia Nut Extract and Glycerine keep the gel deeply absorbed. Wheat protein and B5 make hair silky, detangled and moisturized. Lime oil not only deliciously scents hair, but it keeps your scalp nice and toned, as well!
