- Find out if the Curls Blueberry Bliss Reparative Leave-in Conditioner and Kink Curly Original Custard will work with your hair type! These products are Curly Girl Method Approved, and are compared to the Cantu Curl Activator Cream and Cantu Define and Shine Curling Custard
a good point to note is that the Cantu has glycerin and the Kinky Curly Custard doesn't.
Effect of glycerin ?
@@crystamarie4513 when you use hair products with glycerin in the winter, it causes all the moisture in your hair to evaporate. I have this issue in the winter. My hair will look great right after diffusing and then the minute I step outside my curls would fall and just look stringy. So I have to keep an eye out for glycerin.
I started watching curly girl videos because my daughter is mixed. But have found out so much about my 2a or 2b hair as well. Watching you I realize what my hair could look like. My waves look like yours right out of the shower. But of course your end results are completely different. Time for me to get on the curly girl train!!!
I love using a good leave in as a styler. On my "No Product" days, I like to use that in place of creams and gels because it gives me nice loose curls, but also moisturizes my hair. I'll def have to look into the Curls the next time I'm at the market.
I've been using kinky-curly custard and cantu custard and i have similar hair texture as yours. Moreover, i also use cantu curl activator cream(and I love it). Kinky-curly made my hair straighter at the end of the day and the drying time of kinky is way longer. They are both super moisturising and the canty is cheaper,so I definitely prefer cantu to this one
Eugenia Zakharova awesome! I didn’t have the same results with my curl loosening w the kinky curly. Maybe I didn’t pay enough attention though!
I’m very new in my wavy hair journey, but this is my favorite combo! I get just beautifully formed uniform waves. Next day hair was meh, but it always is for me so far.
I love the kinky curly custard- it creates a great cast and my curls always turn out nicely using it
Kinky Curly is cruelty free bunny certified, I really like it. I have not tried Cantu and I won't b/c it has never shown up on the cruelty free list. Also, if it has a stronger scent than the kinky curly I would not be able to stand it! The kinky curly smells sweet to me, but does smell a bit strong! Sure wish my waves and curls would turn out as voluminous as yours!!
Kinky curly Is the best
I just subscribed, I'm loving your channel & can't wait to see what else you film for us! I have super long curls and what I have trouble with is the front part of my hair. So if maybe next time when you do another video when you're styling you could show us how you style the front bc that's a part that you usually skip over. I want to be able to part it to the side & it look cute but the front always comes out looking weird so I wear my hair half up & half down a lot bc of that. Also you mentioned in one of your videos that you use the clips at the root to help with volume sometimes, that would be great it you could show us how you do that as well! :)
Megan Fairweather great suggestion!! I’ll do that :)
@@curlynfab5120 awesome, thank you! looking forward to it! :)
Looking good! My hair has natural soft curly waves. My issue is that I dislike the sense of wet hair and waiting for a natural air dry. I find my self always blow drying my hair with heat tools or when I decide to wear my curls always have to use a diffuser to dry it completely so I don’t feel the wetness. It’s probably the reason I’m constantly alternating between straight and curly style. With your review I’m pumped to use my kinky curly gel again! 😊
Wow your curls are beautiful!
Hey curl friend 👋🏻 I love the KCCC 🤗 haven’t tried it with the blueberry bliss but I feel like the KCCC give a great cast and leaves me with great shine ✨
I hope u continue to post videos!!! Love them!
girl ur so pretty and i love ur smile and how u always wrar it ❤️❤️❤️ im trying to get my hair this voluminous and fabulous
Thank you lovely! So kind of you 💗💗
Your hair is soooo shiny I can't look away!!!!😍😍😍
why plop your hair if youre going to get it wet again? not judging, i wanna learn
I’m not sure what you mean here, I don’t plop and rewet my hair. For this video I rewet it just to show application method, but usually I apply products while my hair is still soaking wet in the shower, then plop, then diffuse
Curly n Fab on 0:50 you said that you just took your hair out of the plop before using the stylers so yeah i was confused too😂 Btw your hair looks great!! How did it turn out on 2nd,3nd day hair etc?
Yay! I have been debating trying the KCCC because I didn't know what kind of hold it has. I have the same hair type as you so hopefully it will work for me. Great video!
Your video came up in my recommended videos. Your hair looks amazing!!
I'm debating on the kinky curly custard! This was helpful :) thanks!
The custard is my favourite, the knot today is also excellent. I use it in place of the blueberry bliss bc it has no protein in it
@@curlynfab5120 I tried the Knot Today for the first time 2 days ago and I'm happy with it so far. I'm using it for the no protein factor. I apparently overloaded my hair with protein :(
Amazing! I wish my hair comes out that curly. It seems like I've have some sections that refuse to curl. I do use the Blueberry Bliss leave-in.
Prettier and more perfect hair than in a hair commercial ! 😯
Way too sweet of you!!
Glad I found you.. we have same hair
I love your honesty & informational style! I stumbled here & it wasn't planned but definitely not a mistake. Gonna sub! Keep it up! & holy cow I love your hair 😍
Thank you so much!!!
Love your hair! Do you prefer these products over the diva curl styling products? Thanks
Kinky Curly smells like lemon curd!
i actually don't use a leave in, i just don't fully rinse out the conditioner when i wash it. the Cantu product (in my opinion) is mostly forms of oils which weigh down your hair, and why it's a lot cheaper.
Don't put that oil when breaking the cast, if you're looking to get more volume, just scrunch the cast and you'll get super amounts of volume all on it's own.
I also have colour treated hair and kinky curly leaves my hair super shiny
Nancy D the oil helps seal the curl. I don’t know where you’re located, but During Canadian winters, you need an oil. Right now I’ve been using the innate life rose elixir oil and I’m very happy with my volume
@@curlynfab5120 I'm in Toronto as well and have hair with very similar looking curls to you. and have never needed oil on my hair.
but to each his own i guess...
Hi! I am so glad I stumbled upon your Instagram page (and consequently your CZcams channel) I have the exact same hair type as yours and I was wondering how do you color your hair. I've been wanting to go lighter but I hadn't seen any curly girls talk about coloring their hair. I was wondering if you could tell me what shades/tones you go for and if you happen to know of that brand your colorist uses? Or any other information you think is useful! Your hair is so beautiful it gives me hope for my own lcoks while beginning to use the CG Method :)
Emily Monczynski Hey Emily! Thanks so much! I don’t know the exact colours, but I always ask for a cool icy blonde. I also only ever get my roots done and I ask them to tone my ends. I’ve been this colour for 4 years now, and when I first went blond my curls were pretty damaged. My suggestion would be to lighten slowly, and make sure to keep up with deep conditioning treatments. I do them once a week:)
Emily Monczynski ps the brand is Goldwell, but I’ve also been to L’Oreal salons
I would have liked to see how you applied the products to the rest of your hair.
I have 2 videos that show my whole routine☺️
You should try going brunette, I think it would suit you. 😊
Try the denhman brush i think it will work for you..
My hair doesn’t curl as well when I use it.
How often do you wash and style your hair and what products do you use when you wash your hair🤔? I’m so happy to finally find someone who has similar hair to me❤️
C B I usually wash twice a week, right now I use deva curl no poo shampoo and the one condition original. These two stylers in this video have become my staples!
I first saw you, on a promo for LUS products, which I tried twice and personally didn't care for., plus they ate pricey. I was very excited to see you using more affordable products, so I subscribed to your channel. I just realized in my refresh, I am not using enough product. (I am not getting that t squish) My hair is similar to yours and I love my Cantu products. What products have you used with Cantu and stylers? I will start looking at your last videos. Your hair is amazing!
Thanks so much! I’ve used their curl activator cream and their custard. I like both products, but their custard isn’t the friendliest to coloured blonde hair. Their curl cream is excellent though
Loved seeing your technique and I’m going to try the Cantu Custard. In the UK 🇬🇧 some of the products aren’t easily available but Cantu is sort of. Your hair reminds me of my own and I’m hoping for same great results. Do you live in Canada?
Thank you!! I do live in Canada
I love the crunchy affect, its amazing you dont need hairspray to do that. Are you still using these two products still? How did day 2, 3, 4 look?
I still use the kinky curly product, it’s one of my fav and the crunch is great- I usually scrunch it out ☺️
I use those products all the time and I don't get a cast. Funny how people get totally different results. :-)
She was pretty heavy handed with the Kinky Curly product. Do you think that’s the difference in her getting a cast and you not getting one?
Please start making videos again!
Love your hair. Can you tell me the full name of the Cantu?
Beautiful!!!
Curly n Fab Your hair is the most gorgeous and frizz-free I’ve ever seen - I think the oil may be the secret. I’m going to try it!
Let me know how it goes!
Hey, could you tell a little bit more about your colour treatment?
I only get my roots done, the rest The just tone out the brass. So bleach never touches my ends. I also do weekly deep conditioning treatments
Nice vlog!, I love the Kinky Curly line, not a fan of Curls, my natural hairs type 2a, 2b and a bit past hip length
The curls retail line I wasn’t a fan of either, I like their blueberry bliss line much better
Yall try this it worked for me i already got complements im happy
Woot wootttt🎉🎉
What about the next days?
is not that you don't have curly hair when mine is wet is goes straight as soon as it dries it curls lol
Where can I get tbat coconut avocado oil? What's the brand? Love your hair!
Thank you! I got mine in the grocery store ☺️. The brand is called Irresistible, it’s a store brand (Metro).
ur so pretty
Which one has more hold?? I want to buy a custard but don’t know
How do you get your roots to curl so much? We have similar curls but my roots are always flat. And I worry about using product up there because I think it might weigh it down
Sometimes it depends on curl-pattern. It can also depend on your hair cut. Are you diffusing or air-drying?
Can I use only blueberry bliss only? When I used gel my hair get so dry and I can't insert my fingers through my hair...
You can, there just won’t be any hold, but If you like soft touchable curls that would make the most sense. You can also scrunch out the gel so it’s soft:)
Does the blueberry bliss leave in have protein? I want to try it but I’m protein sensitive!
A ton of protein!
do you know what product makes your hair so shiny?
I scrunch it out with an oil, I use the LUS elixir or the Innate Life Rose oil
How would you refresh your hair the next day?
I have a refresh video on my channel that goes through it ☺️
Wont that gel mess up your hair ??
Why do you think that? It’s such a clean gel
Can you tell me if the Cantu custard leaves white flakes? I've heard that it does.
It does if you use it on partially dry hair. I used it on soaking wet hair and didnt have a problem. If you're a damp styler, you might run into some issues.
Curly n Fab oh ok I like product on drenched hair too.
Can anyone tell me if the Blueberry Bliss smell is lasting or if it fades away? I made the mistake of buying the product while in a hurry and not smelling it first. I don't like the smell and am very sensitive to smells to the point of them causing headaches, but everyone raves about the product.
LaceyS27 that artificial smell lasts. It’s not as bad as their jelly, but I can still smell it.
@@curlynfab5120 Bummer. Thank you first the response!
Have you tested MopTop’s curly custard?
I haven’t tried MopTop yet
what did you use to calm down the crunchiness?
In this video I scrunched out the crunch with coconut avocado oil, but it was like -19 degrees Celsius. I usually use argan or the innate life rose oil to scrunch out the crunch now
that dude in the back jhhhh
Hi did you diffuse or air dry?
I diffuse, I have a video on how I do it as well ☺️
Does it not give you frizz after a while? I found after a few times diffusing I got insane frizz. I used to air dry my hair fine but since I went CG it just won’t dry naturally with all that product on
Sarah Wilkinson I haven’t had that issue. Diffusing works for me. There are a ton of variables including your dryer, your diffuser, how much you move while diffusing. When you air dry, do you remove excess product and water with a cotton t shirt to help speed up the process?
Curly n Fab I haven’t done before now, I figured that the T-shirt or towel would just soak up all the product... so hard to know what to do! 😂
Another suggestion for diffusing hair so as not to get so much frizz is the "hover" technique. With head over ,place the diffuser over your hair near the roots while Not touching hair with hands or diffuser. Turn head to the side and hover over. Keep doing this hovering technique over roots and mid length while not going near the ends of hair until you feel abit of crunch then you can start touching hair with diffuser to give some volume.
See "manes by mell" CZcams for the video on this.
I like it and it is interesting you dont have curly hairrrr💃
so Idk if its because my hair Is THICK, HEAVY AND SHORT(DEFINITELY CANT FORGET THAT ITS GROWING OUT OF A PIXIE) but my hair does NOT plop good as all and it doesn't dry either....
only when I take it out does it start to dry and curl but plop sucks on me, I realllllly want plopping to work on me some day hopefully its just the length making the trouble but whatdo u think?
I have thick heavy short hair and hair doesn't plop what could be the problem? any thoughts anyone?
You might just not have enough length to plop yet. I use a shower cap to plop, what do you use?
@@curlynfab5120 I use a shirt.. at first I doi g it tight but I now do it a lil more loose a d since a week ago when I left this comment nt hair has grown Nd the. curls starting to do a full 360... idk if it's the length helping th curls or that doing "somewhat" all the rules of the CGM is actually helping my natural curls come out. I've been at it for about a month and a half now .. so far. thanks for replying f btw a d as of three days ago I think I. I might have unlocked the perfect combo of leave ins and gels for my curls too soon to say but my curls mlm ha e been popping since I discovered this new way
