    Thank you for this review. I finally got to watch it. I appreciate your unvarnished opinion on the products. I'm not one to jump on products bandwagons, so I like to watch you content creators give your input on what's popular. I think that your hair looked very nice, too.

  • @denisemoore9316

    I’m a firm believer that the key to great style is the cleansing and conditioning(for your hair type). I’m an Olaplex and Aveda products junky. But after hearing about Curlsmith I decided to give it a try!
    I started with the scalp treatment line. Then added the moisture line…conditioner, leave ins and the style fixer. Because I’m high porosity I rotate the protein conditioner in every other week. So , for three weeks of use I can honestly say I’m loving them!!!! Olaplex is still tops with me but with Aveda and Curlsmith in my arsenal I don’t need to waste my money on products that just don’t get the job done… for me!

      @Trinity M exactly. The formulation. The only difference between the Tgin honey miracle mask and Aussie moist is honey and olive oil. The rest of the ingredients are the same. I've not used the mask but I've used Aussie and borrowing from Perry Romanowski of the beauty brain and chemist corner, they usually source their ingredients from almost the same manufacturer but the price point usually differ due to units bought, branding, marketing and advertising.

    Thanks for this video! I just happen to be @ Ulta one day and went to the hair care section and saw the type 4 haircare photos for curl Smith. I was immediately curious because I've never seen anything catered to type 4 hair textures in ULTA. However, I noticed that everything was out of stock, which made me more curious. I found myself going back to Ulta several times, to see if they restocked, but they were always out of stock. On that note, since I have products that are staples for me, I'll pass. Maybe, just maybe I'll try the deep conditioner...

    I too said the washing products will be the ones I will use up, my hair laughs at the stylers and the leave-in makes me feel like it's giving me product buildup 😞 the curl bond has amazing slip and defines my curls but I can't use that every wash day. I wish I knew of something with that much slip to pre-poo with. That african pride pre-poo doesn't work for me lol

    IMO leave in works better on soaking wet hair. Also a natural stylists recommended to me adding dc to soaking wet hair and adding less product and more water to create a squishing sound (not sure if that make sense) This method works well with this dc

      Soaking wet as in flat to your scalp and full of water. Your hair care practices are great you just aren’t getting your hair wet enough. I was doing to same thing and wondering why my hair wasn’t thriving. Make sure you run water on your hair until it’s hanging and pretty much flat to your scalp, if the hair is still puffy it’s not wet enough. Just more water kickstarted my hair health and hydration. Spend a good 2-4 mins just wetting your hair. You’ll notice a huge difference 💜

    you might like the in-shower style fixer gel better... it's a thicker gel. it does have a stronger hold which you may or may not prefer but the cast easily scrunches out. i've tried the orange line and the stylers from the blue line (which i liked better than the orange stylers) and i've tried their bonding salve which i love and will like always keeps in my stash.
