Shea Moisture Curling Gel Soufflé Coconut & Hibiscus 12 oz — Hydrating, Frizz-Reducing Gel-Cream for Thick Curly Hair

SheaMoisture Coconut & Hibiscus Curling Gel Soufflé is a hydrating styling gel-cream made to define and moisturize thick, curly hair while reducing frizz and enhancing shine.

This 12 oz Curling Gel Soufflé blends certified Shea Butter with coconut oil, agave nectar and flaxseed to deliver slip, hold and moisture to textured hair. Formulated without silicones, sulfates, parabens, phthalates, mineral oil or petrolatum, it works as a curl-defining styling product and a sealing moisturizer for over-processed or naturally curly hair types. Use it on wet hair for stronger hold on coils and twist-outs, or on dry hair to tame flyaways and refresh shaped curls.

How do I use this gel soufflé for defined curls?

Apply a small amount to clean, detangled hair and distribute evenly using fingers or a wide-tooth comb. For maximum definition on tight coils or twist-outs, work the product into soaking-wet hair and allow to air-dry or diffuse on low/cool to set the shape.

• Start with a quarter-sized amount; increase for dense hair.
• Apply from roots to ends for even coverage and reduced frizz.
• Use on wet hair for sealing and stronger curl memory.
• Dry naturally or diffuse on cool to preserve curl pattern.

Will this control frizz without leaving crunch or residue?

The soufflé texture combines gel hold with a creamy finish so curls feel soft instead of stiff. Natural humectants like agave and oils help lock in moisture while the gel component smooths the cuticle for a glossy, lacquer-like sheen without heavy buildup when used as directed.

• Creates a soft hold—less crunchy than firm gels.
• Leaves a smooth, shiny finish rather than flaky residue.
• Lightweight enough to avoid weighing down medium-density curls.
• Reapply sparingly for refreshes to prevent product accumulation.

What hair types and styles benefit most from this product?

Designed for thicker, curly, coily and wavy textures, this Curling Gel Soufflé is useful for twist-outs, wash-and-go styles, finger coils and frizz control on naturally curly hair. It’s especially helpful for hair that needs extra slip and moisture to define curls while sealing ends against humidity.

• Ideal for 3A–4C curl patterns and dense, textured hair.
• Great for twist-outs, braid-outs, wash-and-go, and coil sets.
• Suitable for color-treated or chemically processed curls needing hydration.
• Use to refresh shaped styles and combat humidity-induced frizz.

Are the ingredients natural and safe for my routine?

SheaMoisture formulates this soufflé with certified Shea Butter, coconut oil, agave nectar and flaxseed—ingredients chosen for moisture, slip and curl definition.

• Contains certified Raw Shea Butter for hydration and softness.
• Coconut oil and flaxseed offer conditioning and improved manageability.
• No silicones or sulfates—reduces risk of buildup or harsh stripping.

Who is this for: If you have thick, curly, coily or wavy hair and want defined, moisturized curls with reduced frizz and a soft, shiny finish, this SheaMoisture Coconut & Hibiscus Curling Gel Soufflé is suited to your styling needs.
