Nourish, define, and hold with Innersense styling products

For healthy, hydrated, and beautifully defined hair, it's all about moisture, the right products, and the perfect technique. Let's dive into a hair care routine using some of Innersense's best-loved products: Quiet Calm Curl Control, Inner Peace Whipped Creme Texturizer, I Create Hold, and I Create Lift Volumizing Foam. Whether you're embracing curls, waves, or sleek, straight locks, these clean, nourishing formulas are here to elevate your hair game.

Start with a clean slate

Before styling, it's key to cleanse your hair of any product buildup. Detoxing from silicones, parabens, and harsh oils allows moisture to penetrate your strands, giving your hair the hydration it craves with the Detox Hair Mask. After cleansing, apply a conditioner with plenty of slip, like Pure Inspiration Daily Conditioner. For our curly girls, you can leave the conditioner in your hair, this step preps your hair for styling, ensuring it's hydrated from root to tip.

Hydration for all hair types

Quiet Calm Curl Control is the ultimate multitasker, suitable for all hair types, from curly to wavy and even straight. This lightweight yet hydrating cream defines curls, smooths frizz, and adds shine, making it perfect for anyone looking to enhance their natural texture. Here is how to use it for each hair type:


+ Curly hair
Start with a dime-sized amount, applying from root to ends. Use on super wet hair and finger-rake or scrunch to define your curls. The hydration will help curls clump together, creating soft, touchable ringlets. Leave it in and air-dry or diffuse for bouncy, frizz-free curls.


+ Wavy hair
Use a dime-sized amount on each section of hair, then finger-rake to distribute. Smooth over the top with “prayer hands” to tame frizz and define waves. Whether air-drying or blow-drying, Quiet Calm Curl Control enhances natural wave patterns and adds soft, natural hold.


+ Straight hair
Apply a small amount, mid-shaft to ends, to damp hair before blow-drying. This product acts as a lightweight heat protectant, giving your hair extra hydration, shine, and smoothness while preventing flyaways.


Pro Tip: Use Quiet Calm Curl Control on dry hair to tame flyaways or add extra moisture. Just a pea-sized amount, smoothed over your hair, will do the trick!

Texture and definition

For a little extra hold and texture, Inner Peace Whipped Creme Texturizer adds flexible definition to all hair types. This lightweight crème works best on damp hair, applied from roots to ends. It creates a soft, touchable texture, helping curls clump together without stiffness. Perfect for wash-and-go styles or creating volume in fine hair, it's versatile enough to use alone or layered with other products.

Elevate Your Look

Ready to add some major volume? I Create Lift Volumizing Foam is your go-to for boosting body and creating defined, bouncy curls. The weightless foam provides lift from the roots while enhancing texture and keeping your hair soft and frizz-free. Apply a small amount to damp hair, scrunch for volume, and let it air-dry or diffuse. The result? Big, bold, touchable hair with no crunch.

Lock in shine and hold

The final step is sealing in all that moisture and style with I Create Hold, a versatile styling gel that provides a light-to-medium hold. Whether you're looking to define curls or keep your style in place, this gel adds shine and structure without any crunchiness. After applying your creams and foams, smooth I Create Hold through your hair and gently scrunch. This step locks everything in, helping your curls stay defined, shiny, and frizz-free all day.

Bonus Tip: If you're battling harsh weather, I Create Hold helps protect your curls from the elements. It's perfect for the fall and winter months when the air tends to dry out hair more quickly.

Refresh and hydrate throughout the week

Especially for our curly girls. Curls need consistent hydration to stay healthy and defined. A quick spritz of a DIY mix of Pure Inspiration Daily Conditioner and water can refresh your hair between washes, helping you maintain moisture and definition.

When it comes to textured hair, moisture is everything. By following this nourishing routine and using the right products, you’ll be on your way to hydrated, healthy, and beautifully defined hair that lasts. Whether you’re going for soft, touchable waves or bold, voluminous curls, these Innersense heroes have your back.
