How To Use

JBCO Water

• Use daily to rewet dry hair. Also, use it before styling to refresh moisture content, strengthen and detangle fibers. Spray generously.

• Shake well before use.

Rosemary Mousse

  • Start on damp hair: After washing and conditioning, gently towel-dry or use a microfiber towel to remove excess water.
  • Section your hair: Divide your hair into sections to ensure even application.
  • Dispense mousse: Shake the As I Am Styling Mousse well and apply a generous amount of mousse into your hand.
  • Apply evenly: Distribute the mousse from roots to ends using your fingers or a wide-tooth comb.
  • Style as desired: Use your hands to scrunch your waves upward to enhance definition, or use the praying hands method for smooth application.
  • Air dry or diffuse: Let your waves air dry for a natural look or use a diffuser to boost volume and speed up drying.
  • Fluff and separate: Once dry, gently fluff your roots or separate waves for added volume and shape.

Bond Oil

  • Apply 1-2 droppers of oil to the hair and leave on for at least 2-4 hours, or overnight for deeper nourishment.
  • For added shine and moisture, distribute 1-3 drops to the ends of the hair and leave in.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I know my hair type?

Your hair type is based on your curl pattern, which ranges from straight (Type 1) to coily (Type 4). You can identify it by looking at the shape of your strands when they’re clean, detangled, and air-dried.

Can I have more than one hair type?

Yes! Most people have a mix — for example, Type 3 curls at the crown and Type 4 coils near the nape. That’s why layering products for different needs can make a big difference.

Why do different hair types need different products?

Each curl pattern affects how natural oils travel down the strand. Tighter curls need more moisture and protein support, while looser patterns benefit from lightweight strengthening formulas.

Can I switch between collections?

Absolutely. Hair needs can change with seasons, styling habits, or scalp health — it’s all about listening to your hair and finding what works best for your texture.

What does wavy hair usually need?

Wavy hair often needs balanced moisture, enough hydration to define the wave pattern without making it feel heavy or greasy.

How can I enhance my natural wave pattern?

Use lightweight conditioners and avoid heavy creams. Scrunching with a mist or leave-in from the Rice Water or Rosemary collections boosts wave definition.

How often should wavy hair be washed?

Every 2–4 days works for most. Wavy hair benefits from alternating between gentle cleansing and scalp-soothing options like the Dry & Itchy or Rosemary collections.

Are As I Am products safe for color-treated or relaxed hair?

Yes. All As I Am products are sulfate-free, silicone-free, and safe for chemically treated or color-treated hair.
