Luster S Curl Activator/Moisturizer – The many Luster Curl activator/moisturizing products sold work immediately or overnight to prevent breakage. Originally S-Curl products were intended to be used in activating a permanent (Geri) curl in African American hair. However, once set in the hair, the curls were basically the only style you could wear. As it so happened, if the wearer wanted to change their hair style, the curl could be washed out but only for a day or two. After a day, the wearer was advised to reactivate the curl immediately or chance losing their hair from damage or major dryness. After several years of the curl, women and men began to tire of the look and problems and stopped getting the curl in their hair and allowed their hair to grow out. They returned to straight hair styles. When doing this, some realized, the S-Curl products could still be used to keep the moisture in the hair. However, they also realized if used in excess, the moisturizer would prevent curls from setting in their hair so it had to be used in moderation. In some cases, women could compensate by using it on a regular basis and wear their hair in a more sophisticated style by drawing it all back in a French Roll, pony tail, twist or bun. When allowing Luster Curl moisturizer to remain on the hair, the moisturizer, sets in and creates a permanent smooth and soft texture.
