Aveda Be Curly Advanced Curl Enhancer Cream — 1.4 fl oz, Defines Curls & Reduces Frizz, Silicone-Free

Aveda Be Curly Advanced Curl Enhancer Cream is a silicone-free styling cream that defines curls and waves, reduces frizz up to 72 hours in humidity, and boosts hydration and shine.

This lightweight cream is formulated for naturally curly and wavy hair that needs more definition, moisture, and resilience. Made 98% from naturally derived ingredients, it combines plant-derived peptides, kokum seed butter, and a citrus Pure-Fume aroma to smooth cuticles and polish curls without silicones or synthetic fragrances. The formula works whether you air dry or diffuse, and pairs well with other Be Curly products for amplified results.

How does this cream make curls look more defined?

The formula helps clump strands into well-formed curls while reducing flyaways that blur curl shape. Polymers and the plant peptide help hold curl structure without stiffness or crunch, leaving hair flexible and touchable.

• Enhances curl clumping for clearer ringlets and waves
• Plant-derived peptide supports fiber strength for longer-lasting shape
• Lightweight film forms without weighing down fine curls

Will it actually reduce frizz in humid conditions?

Yes — the formula was tested to provide frizz protection in high humidity for up to 72 hours on treated tresses. Moisture-balancing ingredients smooth the cuticle and help resist excess humidity that causes frizz.

• Humidity-resistant finish keeps curls defined during damp weather
• Kokum seed butter conditions and adds slip to ease detangling
• Silicone-free approach avoids build-up while controlling frizz

How should I apply it for best results?

Apply to clean, damp hair from roots to ends, then scrunch or twist sections to encourage curl formation. Let hair air dry for a natural finish or use a diffuser on low heat to accelerate drying while preserving shape and volume.

• Smooth generously on damp hair for even coverage
• Scrunch for texture or twist to define individual curls
• Compatible with diffusing or air-drying for different finishes

What ingredients make this a cleaner choice?

Aveda avoids silicones, synthetic fragrances, sulfates, and parabens in this formula, relying largely on plant-based components. The product is 98% naturally derived and features certified organic citrus essentials in its aroma.

• 98% naturally derived ingredients per ISO 16128 standard
• Free from silicones, SLS/SLES, parabens, phthalates, and synthetic fragrances
• Contains plant peptides and kokum seed butter for conditioning and strength
