Skala Divino Potao is a multifunctional 2-in-1 treatment cream for curly, coily and transitioning hair, particularly recommended for curl patterns 3A–4C.
Its formula with castor oil, argan oil, hydrolysed plant proteins, panthenol and vitamin E helps hydrate, nourish and smooth the hair while reducing the appearance of frizz and enhancing curl definition.
It can be used as a rinse-out hair mask, leave-in cream, co-wash or pre-shampoo treatment.
Skala Divino Potao was specially developed for hair transitioning from chemical treatments back to its natural texture, as well as curly or coily hair requiring hydration, nourishment and reinforcement.
During the transition process, the hair may have two different textures: natural new growth near the roots and lengths that were previously straightened or chemically treated. The Divino Potão formula helps care for both areas, providing greater softness, flexibility and manageability.
The product may be used as an intensive rinse-out treatment or as a leave-in cream for curl definition. Its formula can also be adapted for co-washing or used as a treatment before shampooing.
It is particularly recommended for curl patterns 3A, 3B, 3C, 4A, 4B and 4C and belongs primarily to the repair or reconstruction stage of a hair-care schedule.
Plant protein complex
The formula contains hydrolysed corn, wheat and soy proteins. These ingredients help temporarily condition and reinforce the hair fibre, making the product suitable for fragile, porous or chemically treated hair.
Porphyra Umbilicalis red algae extract and tara gum obtained from Caesalpinia Spinosa form a conditioning complex marketed by the brand as “vegetable collagen.”
This complex helps form a fine film over the hair surface and improves the appearance, softness and flexibility of the strands.
Key Ingredients
Castor oil: Helps nourish and condition the hair and reduce the appearance of dry, fragile or dull strands.

Main Benefits
How to Use
As a Rinse-Out Treatment Mask: After washing the hair, apply the product to the lengths and ends, avoiding the roots. Massage gently and leave it on for approximately 3 minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
For a more intensive treatment, the product may be left on for approximately 15 minutes under a thermal cap, then rinsed out completely.
As a Leave-In Cream: On damp hair divided into sections, apply a small amount of product to the lengths and ends, avoiding the roots. Distribute evenly and style the curls using your preferred technique. Do not rinse. Start with a small amount and add more only where necessary.
As a Co-Wash: Apply a small amount to thoroughly wet hair and scalp. Gently massage the scalp with the fingertips, as you would with shampoo. Distribute the product through the lengths and rinse thoroughly. Repeat only when additional cleansing is necessary.
As a Pre-Shampoo Treatment: On dry, unwashed hair, divide the hair into sections and apply the product to the lengths and ends. Leave it on for approximately 15 minutes, then rinse and continue the routine with shampoo and conditioner.
It is a multifunctional 2-in-1 cream. It can be used as a rinse-out treatment mask or a leave-in cream.
The manufacturer also recommends using it as a co-wash or pre-shampoo treatment.
The ideal frequency depends on the hair’s needs. Damaged or highly porous hair may benefit from regular use.
On protein-sensitive hair, it should be alternated with protein-free hydrating masks.
