Our Secret Sauce

  • Lighter Oils v Coconut Oils

    We leave out coconut oil because it can cause buildup, weigh curls down, and trigger allergies. Instead, we use lighter, nourishing oils like sunflower, avocado, and marula—for bouncier, healthier curls.

  • For the Love of Mangos

    Our founders grew up with mangos in the Dominican Republic, and now we use mango butter for its lightweight, vitamin-rich benefits. It softens dry hair, reduces breakage, and smooths split ends—without the heaviness of shea butter.

  • Hibiscus Flowers in your Hair

    Hibiscus flowers filled our childhood, so we had to include their powerful benefits in our formulas. Rich in antioxidants and amino acids, hibiscus strengthens hair, promotes growth, reduces breakage, and enhances curl definition—naturally nourishing curls from root to tip.

Curls, curls.

I love it.

Pleasantly Surprised

I was pleasantly surprised by your product. I purchased the cream and the gel and the refresher spray. I absolutely love the cream and gel. I am born of dominican parents and I have soft curly hair. It's frizzy and sometimes unruly. Your products keep my hair shiny and soft yet controls the curl. To be honest I didnt like the refresher as it made my hair feel like I product and a bit sticky but the other products are excellent! OH! and the shampoo and conditioner samples were awesome too! My hair was so suave and brilloso after the wash and conditioning. I LOVE IT!

Love the gel

The gel is light but gives a nice hold to my hair. It smells great and doesn't get hard or crunchy like many gels. It really makes my curls pop. Also love the clean ingredients.

Yay! Light hold, bouncy curls, and no crunch—that’s exactly what we were going for. And yes, clean ingredients are our love language. Thank you for sharing your curl happiness with us!'

Love my curls❤️

Over the past couple of years since the pandemic I’ve decided to embrace my natural curls. I’ve spent thousands of dollars on hair products. None of them really gave me what I wanted, light no frizz hair, without any harsh chemicals until I found Ocoa! I love the cream and styling gel. From one Dominicana to another gracias hermana. I love your products.

This is the best hair gel I've ever tried! No other hair gel has made my curls look so defined. I've never had a bad hair day since using these products! The curl cream and gel are the perfect pairing!

10/10 Every Time!

This gel gets my wash days right every single time! It has a strong hold that keeps my curls defined for days without needing touch ups. After I "scrunch out the crunch" my hair is soft, bouncy, voluminous, and frizz free. It does not leave any greasy residue or white flakes like I've experienced with other curl gels, even though I can sometimes be a bit heavy handed with my products.

Great Gel

Love the fact that none of your products contain the infamous coconut oil (my hair hates it), and I hate the fact that most companies keep thinking that it is the main attraction to their product.... Anyways! Back to your gel. I love how well it goes with your curl cream. The amount of hold is perfect for my hair; it doesn't leave a sticky feeling, and it works well in this Florida weather.
