Five jars. Two things left out.
For hair that goes stiff or straw‑like after protein treatments. For curls that go waxy with coconut oil. For itchy scalps that carry buildup, and for color‑treated hair. Five full‑size steps, cleanse to seal, and not one of them has hydrolyzed protein or coconut oil in it.
- 100% protein‑free
- Coconut‑oil‑free
- pH 4.5–5.5 on every water‑based step
- Five full sizes
- Vegan & cruelty‑free
This set is for hair that reacts.
Most wash‑day products carry one of two things: hydrolyzed protein or coconut oil. Plenty of hair loves both. Some hair doesn't. This set leaves both out of every step and lets moisture do the work.
This set is for you if…
- Your hair goes stiff or straw‑like after protein treatments
- Coconut oil sits on your curls and goes waxy
- Your scalp itches or carries buildup from gels, butters and oils
- Your hair is color‑treated
Reach for something else if…
- A wet strand stretches, sags and doesn't bounce back. That's a protein gap: the Babassu Hair Therapy Mask or the Type 3 Moisture Bundle
- Your hair is very fine and goes limp under butter. Keep this set, and choose the Curl Moisture Cream variant
The 10‑second test: one wet strand, stretch. Snaps → moisture (this set). Sags → protein (the Mask). Bounces back → leave it alone.
Every step, checked for both.
Neem Tea Tree Shampoo Bar
Step 1, cleanse. Saponified avocado, palm and castor oils do the cleaning, so there's no coconut oil and no sulfates. Neem, tea tree and rosemary essential oils leave a dry, buildup‑prone scalp feeling fresh. 4 oz / 113 g.
Babassu Detangling Conditioner
Step 2, detangle. The rice in it is rice bran oil, not rice protein. Babassu and avocado oils with cationic conditioners give the slip, so knots release instead of snapping. 8 fl oz / 236 mL.
Babassu Deep Conditioner
Step 3, deep condition. No hydrolyzed proteins. Babassu oil melts close to body temperature, so it spreads instead of sitting greasy. On low‑porosity hair, the cap and heat are what let it in. 8 oz / 226 g.
Curl Hydration Spray
Step 4, mist. Water and vegetable glycerin, a humectant that holds water in the strand, with a light touch of argan and rose oil. It's also your refresh between washes. 8 fl oz / 236 mL.
Curl Moisture Cream
Step 5, option one. The featherweight leave‑in: argan, grape seed and olive oils, formulated at pH 4.5–5.5. Light enough for fine curls, rich enough for Type 4 coils. 8 oz / 226 g.
Twist Whip Butter
Step 5, option two. Shea, tucuma and mango butters give twists grip; water and glycerin are whipped in, so it absorbs instead of coating. For twist‑outs and braid‑outs. 8 oz / 226 g.
pH 4.5–5.5 on every water‑based step: both conditioners, the spray, and your cream or butter. The slightly acidic range where the cuticle lies flat. FREE FROM mineral oil, petroleum, sulfates, parabens. No proteins, no coconut oil. Vegan and cruelty‑free. Made in our own manufacturing space in Dallas.
How to use it.
- Cleanse. Wet your hair thoroughly. Glide the Neem Tea Tree Shampoo Bar along your scalp, massage for a minute, then rinse with cool water.
- Detangle. Apply Babassu Detangling Conditioner root to tip. Work in sections from the ends up, fingers first, then a wide‑tooth comb. Rinse.
- Deep condition. Apply Babassu Deep Conditioner, put on a plastic cap and add heat for 30 minutes. A tight cuticle needs the heat to let it in. Rinse with cool water.
- Mist. Mist each damp section with Curl Hydration Spray. Enough to dampen, not soak.
- Seal. Finish with Curl Moisture Cream, or Twist Whip Butter for a twist‑out or braid‑out.
What to expect: if protein was the problem, the stiffness eases from the first wash. Give it three wash days to rebalance.

Questions, answered.
Is every item in here really protein‑free and coconut‑oil‑free?
Yes. The bundle is 100% protein‑free and coconut‑oil‑free across all five products. That's the whole reason it exists.
What's in it, and what size is each?
Neem Tea Tree Shampoo Bar (4 oz / 113 g), Babassu Detangling Conditioner (8 fl oz / 236 mL), Babassu Deep Conditioner (8 oz / 226 g), Curl Hydration Spray (8 fl oz / 236 mL), and your choice of Curl Moisture Cream or Twist Whip Butter (8 oz / 226 g).
Which moisturizer should I choose?
That's the variant choice at checkout. Curl Moisture Cream is the featherweight leave‑in; Twist Whip Butter is the butter‑rich styler for twist‑outs and braid‑outs. Pick by how much weight your hair can carry.
What order do I use them in?
Cleanse with the Neem Tea Tree Shampoo Bar. Detangle with Babassu Detangling Conditioner, then apply Babassu Deep Conditioner under heat for 30 minutes. Mist with Curl Hydration Spray and finish with your Curl Moisture Cream or Twist Whip Butter.
Can I subscribe to this bundle?
No. Subscribe & Save is for single products, not bundles or gift cards. You can put any of these five on subscription on their own.
Why leave coconut oil out?
Some curls react to it. On a tight cuticle, coconut oil can sit on the strand and go waxy instead of sinking in. So every step here uses other oils: avocado, palm and castor in the shampoo bar; rice bran, babassu and avocado in the conditioners; argan and rose in the spray; argan, grape seed and olive in the cream; shea, tucuma and mango in the butter.
Which variant if I wear wash‑and‑gos?
The Curl Moisture Cream. It's the featherweight leave‑in, and on its own it gives soft, touchable definition. The Twist Whip Butter is for set styles: twist‑outs, braid‑outs and Bantu knots.
Restock one at a time.
Nothing in it to react to.
