How to use Nurture Water Locking Gel?

Use on dripping wet hair. It’s a water locking gel. It needs water.
After shampooing and conditioning (preferably one with little to no oils) apply Nurture Water Locking Gel at the ends in a smoothing motion but avoid squeezing water out and work your way up. Add more to parts that didn't get enough -- the hair should feel drenched. Smooth hair using your fingers or our favorite shampoo brush. Follow up with your fingers to prevent clumping. You can allow the hair to air dry, diffuse it, or use a hooded dryer. When your hair is completely dry, carefully shake, and/or separate your curls to your desire.

Does Nurture contain silicone?

Yes. Nurture has an ingredient called dimethicone which can be easily washed out with a sulfate shampoo which we encourage. The biggest complaint about silicones is they leave build up behind. Guess what mostly all ingredients do that. Silicones are no different than anything else you use. It's just the ingredient that has been made the bad guy for marketing purposes. However if you shampoo, you will wash away the build up from all the ingredients that are leaving build up behind including the silicone. Dimethicone, in our water locking gel helps with slip and is one of the ingredients that contributes to a barrier that keeps water in the hair strands. Despite popular belief silicones are completely safe for your hair. Dimethicone has been a staple in many cosmetic products for years. At Nurture Hair Care we don't follow trends we formulate products that actually work.

What is the Nurture philosophy?

Our products are based off of science and nature -- because you need a little bit of both to nurture the hair! It’s like medicine, sure you will do some holistic things -- but if you really get sick, you’re going to the doctor! We are not into the flip-flopping good/bad ingredient trends. We are consistent. We are professionals and have been doing naturally curly hair for a long time. We are not new to naturally curly hair. Our focus is results.
