FAQs

Do I need to use ALL the different products the influencers use?

All hair types need a hydrating shampoo and conditioner like the XO Curls ones. Wavy/curly hair is drier and thus needs a XO Curls Leave-in Conditioner. The XO Curls Pre-Wash Oil Treatment and All Day Definition Gel are optional, depending on your lifestyle, but ensure more nourishment and a better finish, respectively.

You can also mix and match products, e.g. medicated dandruff shampoo with XO Curls conditioner.
