Why Asian Stylists Recommend It
Coarse Asian hair frizzes and takes heat and time to smooth; a bond-repairing cream that controls frizz and shortens the blow-dry means a sleeker result with less cumulative heat on hair that is often color-treated.

Best for
Thick, coarse, or frizz-prone Asian hair that wants a smoother, faster blow-dry.
Avoid if
Skip if your hair is fine and flattens easily, or if you dislike any coated finish.
Why we recommend it
No.6 is a leave-in styling cream that smooths frizz and speeds up a blow-dry while continuing the bond repair the shampoo and conditioner started. A small amount goes a long way on thick, coarse Asian hair — worked through damp mid-lengths and ends, it lays down flyaways and gives a polished, controlled finish that lasts through a humid day. It also cuts drying time, which means less total heat on hair that may already carry color damage. Keep it off the scalp and start with less than you think; dense hair needs only a dime-size amount to look smooth rather than coated.
