Is the Styling Gel right for my child?
See all 8 questions
What age is Curl Enhancing for?
Kids 3 and up, once curls have their own pattern and wash day is about bringing it out. Younger toddlers usually start with Nourish + Grow.
What comes free in my first box?
The Soft Skin Bundle: our Moisturizing Body Cream and a bath bomb, a $34 value, free. It applies to first subscription orders of $50 or more after discounts, or with 3 or more subscribed products of $15 or more each, before tax and shipping. One per customer, on that order only. While supplies last.
Will it leave my child's hair crunchy?
No. It's a light gel, close to a shampoo in feel, that dries to a soft, shiny hold. Start with a pea-size amount and add more only where you need it.
Can I use it on edges and slick-backs?
Yes. Apply it in sections, then brush or comb it through to lay the hair smooth. For edges, use a soft brush or your fingertips and a very small amount.
How often can I use it?
Whenever you style, on wash day or between washes. To refresh day-two curls, mist the hair with water or Refreshing Spray first, then smooth a little gel over the top layer.
Does it have fragrance?
No synthetic fragrance. The gel's light scent comes from the tangerine, bergamot and mango oils in the formula, and every ingredient is listed on this page so you can check it first.
Will it work on my child's hair type?
Yes. It's made for waves, curls and coils, from loose 2C waves to tight 4C coils, including biracial kids' hair. Every ingredient is listed on this page.
What if it doesn't work for my child?
You're covered by the 30 Day Curlfriend Money Back Guarantee. Tell us within 30 days and we'll make it right.

Kids curl gel for defined curls and sleek styles

Curl definition needs a little hold to last. The Styling Gel is light, close to a shampoo in feel, and made with aloe and hyaluronate. Rubbed between your palms and smoothed over curls, it holds the shape without the crunch. Brushed through in sections, it lays puffs, ponytails and edges smooth with a soft shine. Because it's light, it won't sit heavy on fine curls, and a pea-size amount covers more than you'd expect.
Use it on its own, over the Defining Cream for more definition, or under the Curly Custard for added hold. The Comb & Curl Enhancing Styling Gel Set pairs it with our wide-tooth comb. It's made for waves, curls and coils, from 2C waves to 4C coils, including biracial kids' hair. Made by Courtney Smith, a mom and licensed esthetician, and used by more than 70,000 families.
