Details

A protective style is three separate jobs, and most people only do one.

What'Chu Like comes first, before anything goes in. Apple cider vinegar clears out weeks of buildup and rebalances your scalp's pH, with ginger, tea tree, and manuka honey to calm and cool. The tip gets between sections, so this is also how you clean at week two without taking anything down.

So So Slick does the install. Ginger, manuka honey, oat, and flaxseed for grip and shine that holds braids, twists, and ponytails with clean parts and no flaking.

So So Soothing is the part everybody skips. Sunflower, sweet almond, castor, and tea tree, applied straight to the scalp and along the parts with the nozzle tip. Argan and baobab keep the shine going so week five doesn't look like week five.

Clean it, lay it, keep it comfortable. That's how a style makes it to takedown without you counting the days.

How to use
  1. Before the install, apply What'Chu Like ACV Rinse to the scalp and lengths to clear buildup. Rinse and let dry.
  2. Install your style, using So So Slick on each section and along the edges for grip and clean parts.
  3. Through the week, apply So So Soothing with the nozzle tip straight to the scalp and along the parts.
  4. At around week two, use the ACV Rinse again between sections to clean without taking the style down.

What's inside

KEY ingredients

Clean, consciously formulated ingredients that work hard for your hair.

🍎

Apple Cider Vinegar

Balances scalp pH and lifts buildup, sealing the cuticle for shine instead of stripping it.

🫚

Zingiber Officinale (Ginger) Root

In all three. Brings circulation to a scalp that is under tension all day.

🍯

Honey Extract (Manuka)

Moisture at the root, in the rinse and the gel both. Grip never costs you a dry scalp.

🌲

Tea Tree Oil

The purifying one: cooling relief for the itch that builds under braids and weaves.

🌾

Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Extract

Calms skin that has been pulled tight since the install.

🌻

Sunflower, Sweet Almond & Castor Oils

The oil base in So So Soothing. Absorbs into the parts instead of sitting on top of them.

✨

Argan & Baobab Oils

Two shine oils that smooth the cuticle, for braids and twists that still look fresh at week five.

Sulfate, paraben & phthalate free · Cruelty free · Never tested on animals
