Review: Kinky Curly Curling Custard
What They Say: "CURLING CUSTARD gives moisture and curl definition, hold and brilliant shiny hair!
You get Moisture + Hold + Shine in one product!
An all in one product which will simplify the styling process and provide you with the best value for your dollar!
This high performance product is very concentrated so a little goes a long way. 16 oz jar yields many applications and depending on length and thickness of hair should last a few months.
It reduces bulk, defines & elongates your curls helping them to 'hang' better. CURLING CUSTARD will bring out the natural curl or wave pattern you never knew you had!
It is an advanced botanical formula made with ALL NATURAL ingredients that nourish and strengthen the hair.
Utilizing the humectant properties of the Agave Nectar, CURLING CUSTARD will give weight to your hair, define your curls, remove frizz, provide long lasting hold and shine without ever being greasy, crunchy or drying to your hair. "
Toya’s Take: I really enjoy Kinky Curly’s products. The Knot Today has become one of my new favorite detanglers and I like the Curling Custard almost as much. Curling Custard has a wonderfully pleasant coconut scent. It works really well to define curls and cut down on frizz. There are a couple of downsides, though – it has a bit of a weird consistency. It feels kind of like snot, actually, which sounds funny, but it’s true. And, if you use too much of it, it can make your hair a bit sticky, so use sparingly. Still, neither of those things are enough to keep me from using it. I still encourage girls with tight curls to give this a try.
Retail Price: $25/16 oz. (Kinky-Curly.com)
