I have low porosity hair and didn’t realize that so many hair butters build up on my 4c natural hair. Until an ad popped up for this curl cream specifically made for low porosity hair. I never have build up from it and it keeps my hair moisturized. I rarely do reviews unless I feel strongly about a product. And this product is everything!
"Holds" up to its name. This is truly a no fuss product for wash and go styles. I literally applied it to my wet hair and finger combed it. I love how it holds without making my hair hard. Will buy more!
Really moisturizing, really good for curl definition. Has long lasting hold. Is very thick, so goes a long way.

I am 4C, low porosity. The heavy weight aloe vera is IT for me. I literally don't need anything else. I apply it generously and comb it through soaking wet hair and the curls form themselves. This gives me a TRUE wash and go.

Did you know that over 10,000 toxins have been found in beauty products marketed to Black women—toxins linked to fibroids, cancer, and other diseases? Trust Dr.Kanks for clean, safe, and scientifically-formulated beauty products that prioritize your health.
Most brands formulate their products with medium porosity hair in mind, which often leads to ineffective results for other hair types. These products struggle to penetrate low porosity hair and fail to retain moisture in high porosity hair. At Dr.Kanks, we specialize in porosity-specific formulations that ensure every hair type—low, medium, or high—receives the targeted care it needs for optimal hydration and health.

When I first started formulating, I didn’t know about hair porosity. My journey began by giving free samples of a curly cream to women buying wigs from my first side hustle. Initially, feedback was positive, but then some women mentioned the product couldn’t penetrate their hair or define their curls.
Puzzled, I noticed a major difference when using the same product on a woman with high porosity hair—it defined her curls at first, but they vanished once her hair dried. This led me to dive deep into researching hair porosity during my PhD. I discovered that different porosity levels required specific formulations. Months later, I created a curly cream specifically for high porosity hair, tested it on the same woman, and the results were mesmerizing.

Hi, I am Dr.Kanks
There was a time when I hated my hair and wore wigs 24/7. It wasn’t until the Afrocentrism movement in Belgium that I learned to embrace my natural hair. That journey inspired my mission to create clean beauty products that help women feel confident in their skin and hair.
