I smooth herbal essence - tousle me softly finishing cream and then spray aussie sydney smooth spray on my damp hair after washing. It's a little stiff, but it makes my curls come out quite nice.0
-
I use tresemmee products (the shampoo and conditioner is moisture rich) and aussie sometimes.
My hair is beyond frizzy unless I use these, i've heard fruit based products like garnier and herbal essences cause more damage in the long run because of the acid in fruit.
these two brans I use are pretty inexpensive as well0 -
I've tried everything! My hair is medium-coarse, and medium-thin. Aveda "Be Curly" Curl enhancing lotion (~$25) gets the best results for me.0

I have never found anything better than It's A Ten Miracle Leave In conditioner - it leaves your hair so soft and frizz free!
http://www.amazon.com/Its-10-Miracle-Product-4-Ounces/dp/B000TKH6G2
I also really like Organix Brazilian Keratin shampoo/ conditioner/ treatment products - it relaxes my curls into a nice loose curl/ beach wave.0 -
My arsenal include Natures Gate conditioner, kinky curly knott today leave in conditioner, kinky curly curl custard for hold, sometimes curly girl's curls in a bottle for lazy days, aragan oil or olive oil, joiwhip deep conditioner. Rinses with Apple Cider Vingear are also good every other week. Since I stopped using sulfates and silicones my long hair has become much more managable and the curls have been much more tame and defined. The site I always go to for suggestions and research is the naturally curly website, where you can find more info about devacurl and Massey's book that was previously mentioned. Hope it helps!0

Subscribing. My poor 14yr old daughter has super fine, ultra curly hair. Needless to say, she's not really pleased with it.
If she wants to relax her curls a bit, grab Organix Keratin Brazilian products. They relax your hair while leaving a looser, beach wave type look. If she likes that she can graduate into the big leagues and get a professional Brazilian Kertin blowout from a salon.
If she likes the super curl look, I suggest a three fold attack. Grab a diffuser for her blow dryer, a volumizing spray (I like bedhead/ catwalk products), and a good defrizzing conditioner (curly hair doesn't need shampooing often) for some sweet curl action.0 -
I hated my curls all my life. Until I got the ouidad haircut two years ago. I use the leave in conditioner and styling gel along with it. My hair has never looked so good as it does now. I get compliments on it all the time.
For shampoo I and conditioner I use the loreal ever sleek for curly hair.
I highly recommend checking out a ouidad certified salon in your area.0 -
I just use Moraccan oil.
just bought some of this--it was like 50 bucks ...YIKES!
Coconut oil is cheaper and I like it more.
Check out http://www.longhaircommunity.com/
Its like the MFP for people growing hair.
Even if you are not growing your hair the advice you will get for curly hair is excellent.0 -
I use moroccan oil to control frizz (I use the light oil designed for blondes since my hair is very highlighted). It is the only hair product I touch outside of the shower, and I loooooove it!0
-
I have to deep condition my hair weekly and only shampoo with sulfate-free shampoos. The product I love the most is Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie. My hair is thick and gets HUGE, and needs something a little heavy to control it. It leaves my hair soft and it smells yummy too.0

*oops*0
-
I use the Herbal Essences "totally twisted" mousse and the new curl define creme.
I find it's more important that I get a haircut on a regular basis then what I use in it...0 -
I use Redkin. I find it is best to pick up your products from your hairdresser. They are more expensive, but they help your color and Redkin products are so much better than anything I have ever purchased in CVS.0
-
I can't find anything that works for me, so I straighten it or put it up somehow. I will definitely be reading through these for suggestions!0
-
I do a conditioner rinse, then condition my hair will a sulfate free conditioner. i only shampoo once a week, and i use a shampoo with a high moisture content and not too strong of a detergent.
i like to put a lil morracan oil in my hair while its still damp. thats pretty much it in terms of product.0 -
I use normal conditioner when washing then a leave in conditioner pick my hair instead of hand scrunching it and put in tousle me softly mousse by herbal essence and my curls are big and usually not frizzy0
-
I don't personally have curls ( i have some mild waves) but I am a hairstylist! I find that a good combo of Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum and Sculpting Foam do well. Another favorite of mine is Kenra Curl Creme.0
-
I have curly frizzy hair. I use conditioner on my ends only. I use a wide tooth comb to gently untangle hair.
I use almond oil (3drops) while it is damp. Post dry(to keep hair tame), I use argon oil. I do not use Moroccan oil as Argon oil is better and Morroccan oil has only a bit of argon oil in it.0 -
for my hair i use aussie spray gel and it works great when i wear my hair curly. hope this helps0
-
Diffuser & mousse. Looks great on our clients at the salon.0
-
Have been using Moroccan oil for the past couple of years. It does leave my hair very shiny and silky. Totally love the product. When I started working out and losing weight, I started to lose a bit of my hair, and my hair stopped growing as fast, so now in addition to M. Oil, I also started using Coconut oil (which seems to help).0

for my hair i use aussie spray gel and it works great when i wear my hair curly. hope this helps
Finally someone said Aussie! Nothing touches my curly hair unless it is an Aussie product. I have tried all kinds and it control frizz the best. Shampoo, Conditioner, spray gel, and sprunch spray if especially frizzy that day.0 -
I use Organix shampoos and conditioners. To style, I make sure my hair is super wet and then I use John Frieda hair serum followed by John Frieda Dream Curls Perfecting Spray. Scrunch your hair a bit and then let air dry, takes me through the entire day without crunchy feeling hair. No hair spray needed!0
-
LOVE this topic!!! DevaCurl all the way!! You can get it on Amazon, but I go to a stylist trained for curly hair. Have never been happier with it.
Anyone recommend certain devacurl products? There are so many !
Deva No Poo, One Condition, Volumizing Frizz Free Foam, Mister Right. The foam is relatively new and I love it-- so much easier for me to get every where evenly than the AngeL gel that I had from Deva before, which I love until I started with the foam.0 -
Currently using Pantene curls to straight shampoo / conditioners. I use a CHI to straighten my hair and freeze ease finisher on the ends of my hair.0
-
I use herbal essences totally twisted when I wear my hair naturally. I use the herbal essences hello hydration shampoo & conditioner and it helps with the frizziness.
When I straighten it, I use moroccan oil and some aussie hairspray. But that's it. (:0 -
Lvoe john frieda products- use both serum and curl reviver mousse.
I change my shampoo and conditioner regularly as I feel my hair gets used to it very quickly.0 -
Redken!!!!!! They have a line for curly hair, it is the best! I was a hairstylist for 10 years and have worked with and tried everything. I love it!0
-
Coconut oil or this stuff I get on Etsy called Triple Moon Anointing Oil. Also I never heat style.0
-
Bump for later. Thanks for all the product ideas0
