How to use it

  1. Shake the bottle well.
  2. Mist sparingly throughout dry hair to reactivate curls.
  3. Smooth it in with the praying-hands method.
  4. Finger-curl or scrunch to revive curls, then let hair air-dry.

It is for a refresh day and is ideal to extend the result of a wash day.

A refresher is for the days between washes. It doesn’t replace a wash, and its maker’s directions say whether a styler goes on top. How to refresh curls between washes .
