Let’s take a detailed look at all the products in Routine Box Styling N. 2.
The premise is that, like all Bio Gentleaf cosmetics, these three styling products are certified according to the AIAB standards for organic cosmetics, are vegan, and are suitable for the Curly Girl Method.
CURLS STYLING GEL: The perfect styling product if you’re looking for a definition that ranges from soft to strong, depending on how much and how you use it. It fights frizz, provides hold, and thanks to the marine complex – rich in minerals, antioxidants, and strengthening agents – it enhances the hair structure with texture, hydration, and protection, sealing the cuticles and restoring elasticity and shine. It’s perfect for all hair types, from fine to thick, and from wavy to curly. It helps address hair fragility and weakness.
200 ml bottle
OCEAN WAVE: Ideal for unruly hair, to give a finishing touch of hold and stability while reducing frizz and flyaways. This mousse, packed with shine-enhancing, invigorating, and elasticity-boosting ingredients, offers definition, adds texture, and protective agents that shield against external factors and dehydration. It’s also fantastic for a quick restyling in the days following wash day! Its consistency, unlike any mousse you know, is light and foamy, dissolving between your fingers like sea foam, thanks to a very low percentage of surfactants, preventing hair from drying out. It contains the precious Katira, the best ingredient for top-level definition without leaving residues on the hair.
150 ml bottle
LADY SHINE: An intensive strengthening treatment, thermal protector, acidic rinse, with proteins and amino acids. Super concentrated, it repairs damaged hair by working deeply thanks to the combined action of proteins, bioferments, and amino acids. It strengthens, increases shine and elasticity, makes hair soft and silky, and helps prevent frizz, split ends, and dehydration. Perfect even for fine, fragile, and curly hair. Apply it after washing before styling, or in the following days on slightly damp hair.

how to use
The best way to apply this styling routine is as follows:
- Spray Lady Shine on the lengths and roots.
- Apply Curls Styling Gel on soaking wet hair, using raking and scrunching techniques. If you have high density (lots of hair), divide your hair into sections and brush each section to distribute the product evenly. For more volume, make many sections so the curls remain more separated. If you wish, you can also separate them with your hands at the end of the drying process.
- Apply Ocean Wave with your hands, using raking, and then scrunch. Do not brush your hair after this step. A small amount of mousse is sufficient; for shoulder-length hair, two pumps will do!
- If you want a stronger definition, apply a small amount of gel or mousse halfway through the drying process.
- For drying, use a diffuser on medium heat and medium speed. I always recommend doing a bit of plopping, which means holding a bamboo towel, microfiber cloth, or an old cotton t-shirt on your hair for about ten minutes before drying to eliminate excess water. It’s also great to start drying from the scalp and then move to the lengths.
Do not overuse styling products to avoid frizz. Too much product can have the opposite effect!
