Act and Acre Soft Curl System Keeps My Curly

Act and Acre Soft Curl System Keeps My Curly

I’ve never been so dedicated to a system of beauty products since I hit puberty and my mom promptly got me Proactiv. The Act + Acre Soft Curl System includes three steps for cleansing, nourishing, and defining curls, and I’m thoroughly convinced each step is beneficial to my curl-care routine.

My scalp also feels more balanced than ever. It used to get itchy easily, and my roots would start getting oily after just two days with other shampoos and curl products. Now, I swear I can go a complete week — seven straight days — without washing my hair since it stays fresh and maintains its curl memory so well for that long. The one reason I do wash my hair after three days is to rinse the pollen and mud out of it from spending several hours on the park with my dog every single day.

The system focuses on scalp health greater than another curl products I’ve ever used, which was critical when formulating the products since the scalp affects curl patterns, Act+Acre’s founder and CEO Helen Reavey tells Allure. “The scalp has a particularly delicate microbiome and a low barrier function, meaning that it has difficulty maintaining and replenishing moisture,” she adds. Consequently, a scarcity of moisture often causes a dry, itchy scalp and even drier curls.

Each product in Act + Acre’s 4-step Soft Curl System also keeps my nice curls looking perfectly coiled but freed from frizz through all types of weather almost too well. I by accident put this statement to the test recently once I needed to get the wrinkles out of a dress for a marriage and didn’t have an iron or steamer. In a pinch, I ran a hot shower with the lavatory door closed.
