Ive been using wen a few months now and Ive been using 1/2 pump fig 1/2 613 and 1/2 pump styling cream as leave in . I just read the brochure that came with my order and it said6 PUMPS styling cream as leave in . Can this be right ? I have hair few inches below my shoulders and natural curl.

Just use whatever works for you- there are no hard and fast rules, just guidelines.

My gallon and my SHP were delivered today, but I hadn't opened them until I read your question. Reading from the booklet that came with them, the 4-8 pumps of Styling Creme, is for people with coarse, ethnic, or curly hair. If you like what you're doing, stick with it. If that kind of hair describes yours, try a little more SC and see if you like it. If you do, fine. If you don't, then don't do it again. Everyone eventually finds their own way with the styling products.

I guess im not quite sure what my hair type would be. If I didn't color it Im sure it would be all gray so in that way I guess its course and its naturally curly but ive been struggling with thinning as well. *I was just shocked it said so much I guess Ill try it and see. I hadn't really noticed the Sc doing much of anything . Maybe I needed more who knows.

Do you apply your Styling cream in the shower and let the towel soak some of it up or after you towel dry ?

Everyone does it different so just experiment with it to see what works best for you. I initially did not like the SC- it didn't seem to do much for me- but once I figured out how best to use it for me, I liked it better. For me, it works best if I apply it in the shower, after I squeeze a little bit of the water out (damp, but not soaking wet) and I only use one pump (about a nickle size amount??) for my hair, which is long (past my bra).

It has taken me years to finally get styling cream working for me. I have short hair and I had to really figure out how to squeeze it into the little ends without coating my entire head. I use a pea size amount.

When I started using using the CC/SC leave in. I used half a pump of CC (from a 16oz. bottle) and then 1/2 pump of SC. These days I sometimes use a whole pump of SC. I have thin/fine, shoulder length hair.

For me, the key is to put the sc in soaking wet hair and really scrunch and twist to work it into my hair. I twist my hair and make sure I work it into the ends well. By the time I get it worked in, there's no extra for my drying cloth to soak up.
