The 4C 4-Step Recipe
Our original 4-step wash day for 4C NaturAllistas who like to style first-day hair in braids or twists: cleanse, deep condition, leave in, then twist.
This recipe uses products from our original AvoKiwi line. The Hydrating Shampoo is still available. The Fresh Frozé Treatment, Leave-In Conditioner and Twisting Paste are no longer sold, so the full 4-step set isn’t available.
Our JBCO + Chebe Twisting Paste is a different formula, not a direct replacement for the AvoKiwi paste.
