I’m so impressed at how hydrating and light this stuff is. It was also the only thing I needed for my wash n go on type 3/4 hair. It really accentuated my curls and the smell is not overpowering either. It smells quite nice, and I’m super pregnant so I don’t say that about many hair products. I diffused my hair and once it was dry it still had a lot of definition and shine. Will be re purchasing again!!!

I read about this product in a review on Facebook that ranked it number 1 for curly hair. I have lots of hair which tends to frizz. This product is amazing! I put it on when my hair is very wet. It applies really well and that’s it. I let it dry naturally and my curls are great with no frizz! I’ve been getting compliments on my hair all week. I thought I would share my feedback with the rest of you. You should definitely try it. You won’t be disappointed!

Good in mild climate, but HORRIBLE in humid or dry climates

Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2014

Verified Purchase

I don't think I've seen any reviews that factor climate into the effectiveness of this product, but trust me - if you have highly porous hair (like I do) and you live in a high-altitude or an extremely humid climate, this product may present some problems for you.

Since the product relies exclusively on the humectants for moisture and softness (there are no oils in it), the amount of water in the atmosphere will determine whether or not this product moisturizes effectively. If you live in an extremely dry climate, your hair will be extremely dry because there is so little moisture in the atmosphere. If you live in a very humid climate, then your hair might be limp or extremely puffy and difficult to style because of the moisture overload. Also, having too much water in your hair at all times could weaken the strands and cause them to break. So, if your area has climate extremes, you might want to avoid this product. I live in Southern California, so the weather isn't that big a factor for me.

That being said, while I consider this product EXTREMELY expensive, it is something I would use again, just because it works very nicely for me and has helped me retain significant length (my hair is 4b).

I use this as a hold product, rather than a curl definer. I apply the product, braid or twist my hair and let it dry. I find that I get really good hold, my hair is extremely hydrated because of the intense humectant properties, and I get lots of volume. There is some crunch, but I'm conditioned to believe that crunch = lasting hold, so I don't mind.

Even in comfortably moist weather, It might not work for everyone for a variety of other reasons, largely because everyone's idea of a good hair day is different. Some people want their curls to be completely and totally defined at all times (I don't - I like some frizz). Some people hate crunchiness (I don't mind it). Others complain about shrinkage (eh - what can you do?). No one product can satisfy everyone's individual concept of "dream" hair, but for the amount of money this costs, it's not unreasonable to expect greatness. I would say that if the $20+ price tag doesn't bother you, you don't have any exalted expectations and you live in a mild climate, then give it a try. Otherwise, Ecostyler gel mixed with curl activator works pretty similarly and costs less than half as much.

I am sure it’s a great product. But the smell is too strong, I couldn’t try it so had to return it. If they made one unscented I would buy it immediately.

I have tried all kinds of gel and I always go back to this one. I use the 1,2,3 gel method and this is ALWAYS 1 of the 3. It’s great with definition and a lighter hold for a heavier gel, if that makes sense? Love the definition and shine it gives, and it smells pretty good.

Good for fine wavy hair, too!

Reviewed in Canada on November 3, 2023

This is a great product for defining fine, wavy hair. Great, simple ingredients list full of natural film forming humectants with a nice, soft vanilla scent. I just dip two fingers into the tub and whatever coats my fingers is enough for my whole bob. I think this tub will last me years.

I’m on my own journey of figuring out what type of curl my hair is and what products work. This is my holy grail gel, smells amazing, you don’t need a massive amount of product so it lasts so long. It crunches out easily, doesn’t weigh hair down and helps really maintain the curl pattern

Das beste Haargel

Reviewed in Germany on October 21, 2023

Ich benutze den Kinky Curly Custard schon seit mindestens zwei Jahren auf meiner CGM Reise und habe ihn inzwischen schon wieder nachgekauft. Für mich ist er ein super Gel, das sich sehr einfach aus der Dose entnehmen und im Haar verteilen lässt. Die Konsistenz ist genau richtig, nicht zu fest wie bei anderen Gelen, eher wie Wackelpudding. Die Locken sitzen sehr gut anschließend und wirken gepflegt. Der Geruch war für mich zunächst gewöhnungsbedürftig, es riecht etwas nach Kaugummi, ziemlich kitschig. Für mich ist jedoch entscheidend, was das Geel mit meinen Haaren anstellt und das Ergebnis ist sehr gut. Ich habe auf meiner „Lockenreise“ noch einige andere Gele probiert, manche hochgelobt, aber bin jetzt beim Kinky Curly Custard absolut hängen geblieben. Er wird auch weiterhin mein bevorzugtes Gel bleiben. Alle anderen Produkte, die ich noch zu stehen habe werde ich nur noch aufbrauchen. Ich benutze nach dem Waschen einen Conditionierer und gebe dann ein Leave In an die Haare ( nehme ausschließlich als Leave In das Kinky Curly Knot today - siehe meine Rezension dort ). Anschließend dann das Gel, ploppe die Haare und föhne nach ca. einer Stunde. Ich habe halblange, feine Haare, 2a - 2c Wellen/Locken.
Der Kinky Curly Curling Custard ist mein absolutes Lieblingsgel und sehr ergiebig. Ich fühle mich mit ihm sehr wohl und habe nichts auszusetzen. Der Preis ist zwar hoch, aber m.E. gerechtfertigt.
