California Naturals Curl Shampoo & Conditioner Set for Curly Hair — Rice Water & Shea Butter, Frizz-Reducing 16.5 oz

California Naturals Curl Shampoo & Conditioner is a two-step, clean-formula system that gently cleanses and hydrates type 2B–4C curls with rice water, shea butter, and nourishing oils for softer, defined, frizz-reduced hair.

Designed for wavy, curly and coily textures, this set combines a sulfate-, paraben- and silicone-free shampoo with a deeply moisturizing conditioner. The formulas use rice water and hydrolyzed protein to support strength and definition, while shea butter, jojoba and argan oil deliver lasting moisture and manageability. Naturally scented with Rose Garden and made with over 98% naturally derived ingredients, this pair prioritizes clean ingredients and curl-friendly performance without synthetic fragrance or harsh surfactants.

How does this set improve curl softness and bounce?

The combination of conditioning butters and lightweight oils restores pliability so curls move and spring back rather than feeling stiff. Hydrolyzed rice protein and amino acids help strengthen strands, reducing roughness that dulls curl shape.

• Shea butter and jojoba oil add slip and hydration for smoother strand surfaces.
• Rice water provides protein support to enhance elasticity and reduce breakage.
• Argan oil seals cuticles to improve shine and definition.

Will this reduce frizz without weighing my hair down?

The formulas are built to tame frizz while keeping texture light: emollients smooth the hair fiber and lightweight oils lock in moisture without heavy residue. Because the system avoids silicones and heavy synthetic fillers, curls remain airy rather than flattened.

• Free from silicones that can create buildup and dull curl bounce.
• Aloe vera and soy amino acids soothe the scalp and help detangling.
• Natural Rose Garden scent adds fragrance without synthetic perfumes.

Is this safe for color-treated and sensitive scalps?

Yes — the sulfate-free cleansing base reduces stripping of color and natural oils, while the clean ingredient profile limits common irritants. The conditioner’s nourishing blend helps preserve moisture balance after chemical or color services.

• Paraben-, phthalate- and sulfate-free for gentler color retention.
• Leaping Bunny certified and vegan for ethical formulation standards.
• Made in California in 100% PCR bottles to support sustainability.

How should I use the shampoo and conditioner for best results?

Use the shampoo to gently remove buildup and follow with the conditioner to detangle and hydrate; focus product where curls need it most—mid-lengths to ends. For deeper conditioning, leave the conditioner on for a few minutes or pair with a weekly intensive treatment.

• Apply shampoo to wet hair, massage into scalp, rinse thoroughly.
• Saturate lengths with conditioner, comb through, rinse or leave lightly depending on porosity.
• Air-dry or diffuse on low heat for enhanced curl definition.

Who is this for: This set is formulated for people with natural waves, curls and coils (types 2B–4C) seeking frizz control, improved curl definition and a cleaner ingredient list. It suits those who prefer vegan, cruelty-free products and want plant-forward actives like rice water, shea butter and botanical oils without sulfates, parabens or silicones. Ideal for anyone maintaining color-treated hair, looking to reduce breakage, or seeking sustainably packaged daily care for textured hair.
