Try it: “Start with towel-dried clean hair,” says Amoryn Eve Pagdilao, hair stylist at Salon Shags in Redland, California. “Apply Macadamia Reviving Curl Cream to damp hair and lightly coat the hair from root to tip.

Repeat throughout the hair, alternating curl patterns. Spray with Macadamia Healing Oil Spray for touchable shine and natural movement.”
