The story
Most curl creams hold by drying into a shell. Day one looks sharp, then the cast cracks and the curl goes with it. Ours does the opposite. The orchid complex, coconut-derived oils and white meadowfoam restore the moisture and elasticity that let a curl clump and hold on its own, and a light barrier keeps it there until your next wash. There is no fixative in the bottle, so there is nothing to scrunch out and nothing to flake. Definition improves on the first wash and keeps improving for two to three weeks.

Clinically backed repair
Dynagen-R is our patented hair technology, sourced in France and exclusive to REDAVID: a yeast protein fermented from Fair Trade sugar cane that is molecularly similar to your own hair protein, so it bonds into damaged patches instead of sitting on top. In laboratory testing it raised the markers of hair strength and structure by 50.94% against an untreated control. Three phases, every time you use it: Rebuild, Rehydrate, Reseal.
Source: REDAVID clinical testing, Dynagen at 1%. Markers measured: keratin 14, 17 and 71, collagen I and IV, CD34 and trichohyalin.
Four times the free radical defence
In clinical trials our Cymbidium orchid complex was shown to target the microscopic imperfections in the cuticle and fill in the gaps for mirror-like shine, and to act as a natural moisture balancer, keeping essential moisture in and excess moisture out. Its orchicyanins scavenge up to four times more free radicals than vitamins E and C.

Key ingredients
Cymbidium orchid complex
Rebalances moisture inside the strand, which is what makes the curl hold. Scavenges up to four times more free radicals than vitamins E and C.
Coconut oil
Reproteinizes and rehydrates, so elasticity comes back week over week. One of the few oils shown to reduce protein loss from hair.
White meadowfoam flower
98% long chain fatty acids for slip, softness and a moisture barrier that rinses clean. Pressed from the seed of a flower that thrives in the Pacific Northwest.How to use
- Wash and condition with Orchid Oil Shampoo and Conditioner, and detangle in the shower.
- Do not towel dry. Spray Orchid Oil Leave-In Conditioner through soaking wet hair and comb through.
- Take a pea for waves, an almond for curls, a walnut for coils. Warm it between your palms, glide it over the hair in sections, then scrunch upward.
- Air dry or diffuse on low, and do not touch the curls until they are completely dry. Days two to four, mist with water, scrunch, and add a little only where a curl has dropped.
Feels like: A rich creme that melts to nothing between your palms. Smells like: Orchid, honeysuckle and vanilla.
