When should you take this supplement for curly hair?
Forté Pharma Expert Curly Hair Routine is a dietary supplement in capsule form designed for wavy to curly hair, types 2A through 3C according to the most widely used hair classification system. It complements our selection of dietary supplements for hair. Each serving of 2 capsules combines 500 µg of biotin and 55 µg of selenium with hydrolyzed keratin, evening primrose oil, bamboo extract, nopal, and royal jelly, along with vitamins C, E, B3, and B5.
Biotin and selenium help maintain normal hair. Biotin is formulated at 1,000% of the reference nutritional values, and selenium at 100%.
Vitamins C and E and selenium help protect cells against oxidative stress. Selenium also helps maintain normal nails.
What sets the Curly formula apart from the Wavy and Straight versions is the inclusion of bamboo, nopal, and royal jelly. Keratin—the protein that makes up the hair shaft—and evening primrose oil form the common base of the line, which is tailored to different hair types.
A capsule is not a substitute for daily curl care. For this, we recommend Cattier Organic Curl Defining Treatment, a styling product for curly hair: take the supplement every morning, and apply the treatment to the lengths of your hair when styling.

Our Expert Advice on the Curly Hair Routine
Before starting your first box, there are two things to check first: whether you have a bee hive nearby (if you have asthma or allergies), and then a blood test to be scheduled. Biotin is what causes the most surprises in the lab, precisely because no one thinks to mention it.
Also, keep your expectations realistic. A single capsule won’t change the nature of your hair: a curl is still a curl—it’s how you wash, condition, and style your hair that defines it. This treatment complements your existing routine; it doesn’t replace it.
FAQ
How long does it take to see results with Forté Pharma Expert Curly Hair Routine?
It takes several weeks. Hair grows about 1 to 1.5 cm per month: what you’ll notice over the course of the treatment is the length that grows while you’re taking it, not the length that was already there.
How long should I take Forté Pharma Expert Curly Hair Routine?
Hair supplements should be taken in 3-month cycles, with a one-month break between cycles.
Which vitamins are important for curly hair with Forté Pharma Expert Curly Hair Routine?
Among these nutrients, only biotin, zinc, and selenium are recognized for their role in maintaining healthy hair, regardless of hair texture. The Curly Hair formula provides biotin and selenium, but not zinc.
