The Award-Winning Textured Hair Care Brand Celebrates Authenticity, Advocacy, and Innovation with New Organic, Fair-Trade Shea Butter Formulas

STAMFORD, Conn., March 13, 2024 – Cantu Beauty, an industry leader in textured hair care, is thrilled to announce its latest brand ambassador, Skai Jackson, an actress and bestselling author, renowned for her authenticity and commitment to empowering young women. Jackson will be the face of the brand, promoting its groundbreaking reformulated classics now made with fair-trade organic shea butter plus B vitamin complex, designed to increase moisture, strengthen hair, and help foster healthy hair growth.

The exciting lineup of new products include the brand’s best sellers: Sulfate-Free Cleansing Cream Shampoo, Hydrating Cream Conditioner, Curl Activator Cream, Coconut Curling Cream, Shea Butter Leave-in Conditioning Repair Cream, and Argan Oil Leave-In Conditioning Repair Cream. Each product is meticulously crafted to cater to the unique needs of textured hair consumers around the world.

I look forward to empowering young women worldwide to embrace their natural beauty and confidence.”

In a momentous move towards sustainability and commitment to ethically sourced ingredients, Cantu has joined the Global Shea Alliance, a non-profit association that promotes industry sustainability, quality practices and standards, and demand for shea in food and cosmetics. This initiative aims to enhance visibility within the brand’s supply chain, contribute to parkland restoration efforts, support women’s livelihoods through training, and modernize women’s collection activities.

Cantu FAQs

How can I join the Cantu Crew?

Throughout the year we have social media call outs looking for Cantu lovers to join our crew. Make sure you’re following us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram so that you never miss out on our amazing opportunities.

How old should my child be before using Cantu Care for Kids?

Your child should be at least 3 years of age + before joining the #CantuCrew!

Do you have products that could change my hair texture?

We do not have products that change the texture of your hair. We do have an awesome curl stretcher that helps elongate your curls!

Does Cantu make your hair grow?

Healthy hair growth starts with well-conditioned hair, and each of our products contains shea butter to keep hair hydrated and moisturized.

What’s the LCO method?

At Cantu we actually promote LCO instead of LOC. Using oil after the cream helps seal the moisture into the hair shaft. If you were to put cream on after the oil, it wouldn’t get absorbed into the hair.

Why does Cantu’s Custard leave white flakes in my hair?

Our Custard is an amazing product when used correctly! When you apply this product make sure your hair is clean and apply to soaking wet hair only. It’s perfect for coils and wash and go’s.

Do you have products to make my edges grow?

A woman’s edges are very delicate. You want to make sure you’re not straining the hair by pulling them up in a bun or excessive braiding. We have an amazing Grow Strong Strengthening Treatment that helps promote hair growth.

Do you test products on animals?

We do not test our final products on animals, but we do however like to test on family and friends!

Does Cantu have isopropyl alcohol in the Leave-in Repair Cream?

Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) can be drying to the hair if used on its own. This is not the case with Cantu. Our Leave in Conditioning Repair Cream has always utilized a great deep conditioning ingredient, of which IPA is a component ingredient used in only tiny amounts – less the 1/25 of a teaspoon and evaporates before it reaches your hair. Please note that our award-winning formula has not changed.

Why haven’t we seen this ingredient on the back of the jars before now?

The European Union (EU) compliance requires us to list it differently than we’ve listed before! Nothing has changed. 🙂
