Your questions, answered

Will it leave build-up?

No. It melts from balm to oil, and charcoal helps lift build-up.

Can I use it on my edges every day?

Yes. A pea-size amount gives light hold and shine.

What should I pair it with?

Massage in Haitian Black Castor Oil first, then smooth Pomad on top. The Save My Edges duo pairs the two.

Are Kreyòl Essence products suitable for all hair types?

Yes, from fine and wavy to curly, coily and 4C hair.

What makes Kreyòl Essence products different from other hair and skin care brands?
