    Awesome topic!

    I have some crazy curly hair that's very coarse.

    I normally keep mine under control with a little bit of gel.

    I love L'oreal Sulfate-free Shampoo and Conditioner. It leaves my hair feeling super soft and smooth.

    YES! If you have curly hair, you need to go sulfate-free and salt-free. I like the L'Oreal line of sulfate-free shampoos. Also, don't towel dry your hair...let it air dry!

    I also like using products that have argan oil. Moroccan Oil is one of the brands that contains argan oil, but you can get similar quality for lower prices. I personally use One 'n Only Argan Oil that I buy at Sally Beauty Supply. It's affordable and a little bit goes a LONG way.

    Some products that have silicone in them work well for curly hair, but I'm not sure that silicone is good for you in the long run, it can weigh down your hair.

    So....Nobody uses WEN (by Chaz Dean)?

    I don't have curly hair, but I know a lot of people who do and they use it. I've used it for 3 years (on my straight hair). Best thing I've ever purchased for my hair. seriously
    I have curly hair and when I want to wear it curly I use Deva Curl....low poo, conditioner and gel. If I want to wear it straight I use WEN, it truly is an amazing product !!

    I use Kirkland Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner from Costco. They are 100% vegan, no paraben and no sulfates.

    I have finally found the perfect styling procuct for my type 3a/2c curls : Schwarzkopf Osis+ Thrill Fibre Gum

    I can't say enough about this product - it is amazing! It gives me hair great hold with defined curls and leaves no sticky or crunchy residue: My hair feels soft and totally touchable. Plus, I am one who is allergic to many products and have no problems with this one.

    I love this, I always straighten mine cause the curls don't cooperate, usually goes super poofy. But when I do leave it I use Aussie's leave in conditioner/mousse, keeps hair from going all crunchy but holds well. I also always, whether curly or straight, put in garnier fructis sleek and shine anti frizz serum, just run a small amount through my hair when it's still wet and keeps it silky.

    Biolage Mousse. I've tried so many products and mousse is the only thing my hair likes. I don't like when products make your hair look greasy or the wet look. I dry 1/2 way, add mousse, then dry a little more.

    I like the sulfate free shampoo & conditioner from L'Oreal. I also rotate in the sulfate free products from Aquage. ( love their serum for straightening)

    I use a little AG recoil curl activator on curly days, plop in in a towel for about 20 -30 minutes, then air dry with clips in near the scalp to give some lift at the roots. Follow with Aquage serum.

    I like Elnet hairspray because it does not get crunchy.

    I have naturally very thick curly hair, Since having it chopped off into a graduated bob about 2 and a half years ago, I don't think I have worn it curly since! Even though it is long again now, I straighten it every day, i use morrocan oil and Paul Mitchell serum. I LOVE this post as I will be wearing my hair curly when I go away in the summer and need to be re-trained in styling my curly hair lol x

    GHD hair straighters and John Frieda heat protection serium

    Also OSMO hair mask twice a week and a trim every 6-8 weeks,

    When curly i use serum and leave in conditioner and just scrunch it up into a bun and when its dry i let me hair out and its all lovely shiny curls.

    or if im being lazy i just brush the curls out and go with a frizz :o)

    I use the Sulfate-Free Shampoo & Conditioner line from L'Oreal. I've noticed a huge improvement with the tangling of my hair. Now it takes me 2 minutes to detangle my hair instead of 5+.

    As my leave-in conditioner I'm using L'Oreal Sulfate-Free Leave-in Spray. Not a fan of the smell, but it does leave my hair soft.

    To style, it depends on whether I'm diffusing of air-drying it. (Since I'm lazy, I usually air-dry)

    If I blow-dry, I use Tresemme Heat Tamer Spray (anytime you use heat on your hair you need to protect it!) and a light-weight mousse to help with frizz and to help my curls stick together. Right now I'm using Suave Captivating Curls Whipped Cream. It's cheap and works decently.

    If I let it air-dry, I use a styling cream. Right now I'm using Garnier Fructis Curl Calm Down. It helps my curls stick together but it doesn't leave them stiff. (There's nothing I hate more than stiff curls!)

    It also really helps to wash your hair less. I know it may seem gross when you're getting used to it, but it's one of the best things you can do for your hair. I went from washing my hair everyday (yikes!) to washing it every 2-3 days and my curls are in MUCH better condition.
