instructions
Too Clean Shampoo
we recommend starting with hair soaking wet. hair sectioned in twists. apply shampoo directly to scalp. massage shampoo into scalp thoroughly, then work shampoo down hair shaft. rinse out with warm water. repeat up to 1x only if necessary.
BOOM. kinks are now gently clean. time for the Too Thicke™ Deep Conditioner.
Too Thicke Deep Conditioner
start with clean, soaking wet hair. we recommend our Too Clean™ Shampoo to cleanse kinks. section hair, scoop out the deep conditioner and work it in. detangle hair with fingers, or your fav detangling tool. allow deep conditioner to sit for at least 15 minutes, with heat. do not leave this product in hair for more than 1 hour. rinse out with warm water.
the results? juicy kinks that come through drippin’.
Too Soft Leave-In Conditioner
got drippin’ kinks after the Too Thicke™ Deep Conditioner? sweet. apply leave-in conditioner to hair strands. we recommend working in sections. make sure each piece of hair is coated with leave-in conditioner. remember to put some extra respect on those ends.
feel that softness? good. she’s ready to style.
*fun fact: you can use this product as a heat protectant for your blow drying and blow outs too. :-)
Too Slick Styling Cream
use this after our Too Soft™ Leave-In Conditioner. on soaking wet hair, add the styling cream and braid/twist each section. re-hydrate some sections with water if they are too dry by the time you reach them. NEVER apply products to dry hair. once done, let hair dry for a full 24 hours. yup, a full day. after it’s 100% dry, CAREFULLY unravel for minimal frizz.
and voíla, soft, poppin’ kinks that last for days.
my beauty. my peace. my joy. that's the revolution.
more juicy. more kinky. more creamy.

do I need to refrigerate my products?
no, these are water-based products, which include a preservative.
how long will my 4C ONLY products last?
approximately 6 months.
what preservative do you use?
optiphen plus.
optiphen plus is a paraben- and formaldehyde-free preservative system that is ideal for products with a lower pH system. optiphen plus is an isp patent-pending liquid preservative formulation featuring an innovative blend of phenoxyethanol, sorbic acid and an emollient base that is ideal for slightly acidic personal care products requiring broad-spectrum protection.
the combination of all three ingredients offers effective protection against bacteria, yeast and mold growth while imparting emolliency.
i'm allergic to a few things.
ingredients may have been derived from corn, soy, wheat, and/or nut products. They may have also been produced in a facility that makes those products.
we recommend conducting an ""area/patch test"" as described below:
area/patch test
this test allows you to test a small area of your skin for 24 hours before applying the treatment to a larger area. we recommend rubbing the 4C ONLY mixture on the skin near your elbow, covering it with a bandage for 24 hours and if there is no allergic response (redness, itchiness, swelling), then apply the treatment as directed in the instructions. if you have an allergic reaction, we do not recommend the use of 4C ONLY and suggest that you seek a medical professional’s consultation.
are 4C ONLY products safe to use on color treated hair?
yep, they are!
does it matter what porosity my hair is?
nope. whether you're low or high porosity, these products are formulated to penetrate your hair and go to work. the only difference is in how you use the Too Soft Deep ConditionerTM.
if you're low porosity, we strongly recommend you cover your hair with a plastic cap after applying the Too Soft Deep ConditionerTM. then use heat for at least 15 minutes, so your cuticles can open up and easily let the product in.
if you're high porosity, we recommend letting the Too Soft Deep ConditionerTM penetrate your strands for at least 15 minutes. you don't have to use heat or cover your hair with a plastic cap, but you may do so if you'd like.
can other hair types use these products?
while these products may work for other hair types, 4C ONLY is specially formulated for the needs of kinky, coily 4C hair. our natural and organic formulas won't upset other hair types, but they are designed to work best on 4C hair.
how often should I use these products?
we recommend using 4C ONLY products as often as you do your wash day regimen. for some 4C kinks, this is once a week. for others, it may be bi-weekly. and for other 4C girls, it might even be every 3-4 days.
how much product should I use?
good question. because your length, density, and porosity may differ, we recommend experimenting with the amount of product you use.
start with a nickel-sized amount for short hair, or a quarter-sized amount for long hair. as you work product in, feel free to add more product if you find you need more to coat the length of your hair.
pro-tip: the products should absorb into your hair. so if you find yourself with a visible 'cast' on your hair, do not add any more product. instead, lightly mist your hair with water and work the product in.
how do I apply my products to my hair?
1. start with clean, soaking wet hair. section your hair, scoop out the conditioner, and work it in. this product is detangle-friendly, with tons of slip.
2. let the conditioner sit for 15 minutes, preferably with heat. then rinse it out. keep your hair in sections, and dripping wet.
3. on soaking wet hair, add the styling cream and braid/twist each section. re-hydrate some sections with water if they are too dry by the time you reach them. never apply products to dry hair.
4. once you're done, let your hair dry for a full 24 hours in that style. yup, a full 24 hours. it's important. after it's 100% dry, carefully unravel for minimal frizz.
how do I refresh my hair?
we recommend lightly misting your hair with a spray bottle to control the amount of water. mist one section, apply a dime or nickel-sized amount of styling cream to the section if needed, and retwist or braid the section. continue this process for each section until you've touched all of your hair. allow your hair to dry for 24 hours.
are these products going to weigh my hair down?
nope. each of these products is formulated to work with your 4C hair, and not against it.
can I detangle with this?
yeah, friend! we recommend detangling in the deep conditioner stage to minimize frizz when styling.
we suggest detangling before rinsing deep conditioner out of your hair, after the deep conditioner has had at least 15 minutes to penetrate your strands.
you may finger detangle, or use your favorite detangling tool.
can I leave this on overnight?
we do not recommend leaving the deep conditioner in overnight. you should rinse it out after 1 hour, max. you can leave the styling cream in until your next wash day.
will this make my hair hard?
nope. your curls will have hold, without feeling hard or crunchy.
will this make my curls looser?
nope. your curls will not loosen with these products. Instead, they'll have more bounce and elasticity.
will these products flake?
if you find the product flaking, it may not mix well with another product in your regime. we recommend using water-based products with our 4C ONLY products.
can I mix this product with my other products or should I strictly use 4C ONLY?
we recommend using water-based products. the easy collection is also water-based, this will make sure all your wash day products work well together.
make sure you join the club to know when 4C ONLY will be releasing more products!
do you have any other suggestions for styling besides twist out, flat twists, or braid outs?
you can rock a high puff, full fro, or even a design if you'd like. however, keep in mind that 4C hair can tangle easier than other hair types. so we strongly recommend twist outs, flat twists, or braid outs to keep your 4C hair stretched and minimize fairy knots!
