What are the benefits of using avocado ingredients in hair products?
“Avocado oil is rich and helps seal the cuticle. It gives incredible hydration to dry hair and adds shine,” Stevens said.
Sealing the cuticle means your hair retains moisture in your hair shaft for longer. That way your hair is much softer, flexible, and easier to manage. And it means less work in the morning when you’re running late (but we won’t judge).

Which product in the Avocado Collection is your favorite?
“I’m obsessed with the avocado hydrating curling creme. My hair feels extremely soft but not overly greasy and smells amazing!” said Stevens.

Many of these products are alcohol, silicone, and sulfate-free. What does that mean for Cantu’s customers?
“They can trust that this line won’t dry out their hair over time which means they won’t have to switch regimens after a few uses,” she continued.

What hair type do you think would benefit the most from using Cantu’s Avocado Collection?
“I think 4a-c customers would really love this line because it’s so hydrating. Also, customers with color-treated hair will enjoy the benefits of avocado oil in the products,” Stevens said.

What hairstyle do you think would work best with the Avocado Collection?
“Twist outs, rod sets, and braid outs would be my suggestion for styling because it really hydrates the hair and gives control to coarse dry hair,” she continued. “I’d also suggest using a tiny bit for women with short pixie cuts when they mold their hair wet.”
Cantu’s new Avocado Collection is available now on their website, CVS and Elegant Beauty supply stores.
