20 Best Shampoos And Conditioners For Curly Hair (Jan 2023 Update)

I was very excited & grateful to have been chosen to try Shea Moisture Curl & Shine Coconut & Hibiscus Shampoo. #trywithtopbox #freeproduct I have type 3B curls, and I have been wanting to try Shea Moisture products for quite some time now, but just didn’t get around to it. I have been using the Coconut & Hibiscus Shampoo for a month now. I really like the coconut scent, it lathers really well and I was very pleased that a little goes a long way as I have very long and thick hair. I wash my hair every 3rd day, but I wet my hair and condition it every day. I have been using the Shea Moisture Curl & Shine Coconut & Hibiscus Conditioner the 2nd day. I always use leave in conditioner but that day I had to use double the amount of what I normally use. Otherwise my hair felt & looked dry & frizzy. The product definitely did help with detangling my hair, not totally, but to a great enough degree where I was pleased. I didn’t notice any improvement in shine though. I was hoping to experience much more of an overall difference from all the various products I have used in the past. No huge noticeable difference, and more expensive than what I currently use. I love that Shea Moisture Curl & Shine Coconut & Hibiscus Shampoo contain no silicones, parabens, no phathalates, no petrolatum & no mineral oil. I would still recommend that someone try the product, it might work for them, it just wasn’t a match for my hair. #freeproduct #trywithtopboxKikiKi

Thankful to have found and purchased this amazing shampoo. My desire to nourish and manage my natural 4C porosity hair came with a challenge. However, I remembered, that I purchased this shampoo and matching hair masque. However, for the information on Hair Porosity Moisture Replenish Masque, the page is unavailable. My budget is tight at the moment, but I usually save up for what I need. I need the Hair Porosity Moisture Replenish Masque. Therefore, to increase the benefits to my damaged hair I gathered a portion of the Curl and Shine Hair Masque and combined it with a hint of tea tree oil, fresh rosemary water, rose water, and peppermint oil. Leaving in my hair for 30 minutes. My hair texture is incredibly moist. I shall continue this mixture until I am able to locate and purchase the High Porosity Moisture Replenish Masque, which I already know is perfect for the restoration of my hair. The chemical perm greatly damaged my hair, thinned my hair, and broke my hair off in places. After two years of studying Cosmetology without desiring to work in this field, I have learned valuable new detailed information about hair on my own. Your products live up to the authentic purposes mentioned. In conclusion, I am looking forward to growing my hair back to my desired length with thickness, sheen, and shine. My Little Mama pressed my hair each early Saturday morning and my hair grew down my back, but she passed away and I was introduced to the chemical perm. Done with that…I shall delightfully regrow my hair and silk press for the holidays along with special occasions. Otherwise, I shall enjoy sporting my natural healthy hair for the summer and spring, and for the fall and winter, I shall silk press during these two quarters. I have purchased a quality titanium flat iron, the best hair dryer, heat protector, and the best products for silk pressing being aware and mindful of the damage of too much heat to the hair.Quintessential Queen

So I really enjoyed using the product on both my baby girl and my own hair. Because we have very very different hair types, I noticed some important things. She has a healthy head of very fine, very varied coil curls. The shampoo worked great on very wet hair, it lathered well for a clarifying shampoo without turning her hair into dry grass. I rinsed twice to make sure the water ran well and clear. The conditioner was light and moisturizing, as promoted. I took the time to work it into all strands while damp to slightly wet with a curly hair wet brush. Afterward rinsing the conditioner lightly, I put in the styling cream. Here I realized I'd put in way too much, but the effect was still very good. Her curls were less prone to tangling, moisturized and made beautiful defined coils. My hair is fine but wavy, not curly. However my hair is super dry. I like using heavily moisturizing products from time to time to feed my hair. The products were too heavy for fine straighter hair, but it really moisturized heavily. My hair has a healthy strong feel and a beautiful glisten that it has after a moisturizing hair mask. Overall, on straighter finer hair, I'd say use the conditioner thoroughly but rinse very well and easy on the styling cream. I didn't experience any waxiness anywhere.Thali22

This Pacifica Pineapple Conditioner is a great followup to the shampoo to lock in the right nourishment to produce the curls you need. It made my hair come back to life after hair dyes had caused damage of dryness and lifeless hair. It’s more youthful because it’s shiny, wavy and soft again! It actually works as promised! Smells fresh, although the shampoo is stronger. I love the Pacifica products I’ve been trying because of my curiosity and sales I’m trying more. The prices are decent as compared to other higher priced brands that just continued drying the hair out even though the exhaustive amount ingredients seemed good. Pacifica seems to have hit upon the right amount of ingredients that are simple, yet effective and natural, as much is possible.iHerb Customer

I just started my natural curly hair journey from when I started damaging it as a teenager! I feel like this shampoo was highly recommended and I just could get enough of how amazing it smells! I always imagine myself at the beach drinking a pina colada when I use this! I am obsessed. I feel like my hair gets a really good clean when I use it. It has a very thick texture but applies and wash very fresh, and light. I don’t feel like my hair is caked onto any chemicals after using it. My hair truly feels refreshed! I will definitely be continuing to use this product in my curly hair journey!Hana

I just finished this bottle and I'm sorry to say I won't buy it again. The shampoo itself is ok but I feel like it weighs my hair down. But I am hating this new container designs. It arrived leaking within the plastic bag. And then somehow, the bottle continued to leak from the top even though I had it stored upright. By the time I finished the bottle, the whole thing had a thick coating of shampoo on it. AND there's no way to open the top to add a little water to get all of the product out. Very disappointing.Annette H

The textured hair journey can be so frustrating! For a year or so, I’ve watched all the YouTube videos and tried all the “specialty”/pricier curl products with no success. On a whim, I decided to try this because of how affordable it is (while still being free of parabens, sulfates, etc). I am OBSESSED with my hair! I can’t get over it. I have pretty course hair (my natural hair is grey and I’ve been color treating it for over 20 years), and I can’t remember there ever being a time when my hair was so soft, and bouncy, and shiny! On non-wash days, I just have to re-wet my hair with a water bottle and diffuse, and it looks just as good as day 1. On wash days I use the Curl Nourish shampoo in combo with the Curl Nourish conditioner, followed by a little Sleek & Shine leave-in conditioner and the Curl Shape defining spray gel (both also Garnier). Then I diffuse and voila – body and shine and bounce. Did I mention I’m obsessed? As I have learned well, everyone’s hair is unique and what works for one curly girl won’t work for another, unfortunately. But maybe this review will help someone else who’s just as frustrated as I was, and maybe these amazing and affordable products will work for you, too. If not, don’t give up! You’ll find the products your hair will love.Bria

I really enjoyed this shampoo even though I had some issues with the conditioner in this 3 step system. The smell is good and it definitely cleaned my hair well– it lathers nicely. I did not have any issues with my hair becoming more oily with this shampoo ( I tried washing my hair a few times with only the shampoo and then using the spray between washes that deemed to help for me). the first time I used the product, once my hair air dried, I definitely noticed my wavy hair being more wavy textured than normal. this was something that was consistent with the use of this shampoo (the conditioner just seemed to increase the oil in my hair which took away from any beautiful waves I may have had ). I definitely am going to continue to use this product and would recommend it.gaby.k

I have fine, oily hair and this conditioner is so lightweight. The scent is a light apple but not overpowering and I can't barely smell it after my hair is dry. The only thing I have noticed is that it doesn't seem to give my hair body. Although I'm not disappointed about that because mostly bought it knowing the formula would be lightweight. Regardless of how lightweight any conditioner is, my hair tends to hold onto any product so I don't use this everyday. I still recommend this.Zondagirl

My husband just bought this product probably a few days ago so my review will not be like 100% but I wanted to go ahead and go with mine and his thoughts on it so far. The price is decent in the size is good to have with you on the go. You can carry it in your vehicle with you and apply it whenever you need it. So that's a bonus. So far it works pretty good. He's happy with it so far. But I think he's going to want something a little different I don't think it's exactly what he wanted but it isn't really good gel that has a pretty good firm hold. I do notice the wet look also though, which I dont like too much.amber.g

I have been anxiously waiting for this conditioner to come back. When I called, I was told it was supply-chain issues on some of the botanical ingredients, but that the Spring Loaded Conditioner would return. In the meantime, I tried several new products, and, my curly hair was never as nice as when I used JPM's Spring Loaded Conditioner. I had written in the past that I wouldn't stray, but, the unavailability caused me to try, and, I am so glad the wait is over. My hair is back to looking lovely and soft and manageable and not frizzy. Thank you, thank you, for making this conditioner again, and all in the Spring Loaded line. I don't like to use anything else.Air

For the most part this worked well. It does a decent job controlling frizz and defining curls too. The hold doesn't last long though, I did have to touch up through the day because it didn't hold up. I like it for quick errands around town but not if I need my curls to last all day. I've used other products that I could go 2-3 days with minimal restyling so this wasn't worth purchasing again because it just doesn't last as long as I'd likeMeganB

I found this to be an excellent light conditioner. I have 3 b hair that I bleach and dye fun colors so my hair is a bit damaged, but this product line has been really nice to my hair. The conditioner isn't going to be great for anyone with type 4 hair or above, but it is excellent for waves and 3 type curls because of how light weight it is. I wash my hair once or twice a week. I wash, rinse, condition, detangle, leave on for 5-10 minutes, rinse. I usually put the leave in conditioning treatment from Chi on after but while I am still in the shower. And sometimes I will do a deep conditioning treatment instead to get the moisture kick I need.Kiantewench

I have been using this shampoo and conditioner for two years. I have 3 b hair that I bleach and color in fun and bright colors so my hair is a bit damaged. I wash my hair once or twice a week and leave it curly most of the time. It could be more moisturizing, but I do have post-wash product for that. IT cleans but on really oily roots, I have to wash twice.Kiantewench

This conditioner is amazing! Of all the conditioners I’ve ever used (I’m in my 20’s so I’ve been through a looot of conditioners!) this one is by far the best. I don’t need a huge amount of it to get my hair untangled, and when I do brush through it I barely have any tangles at all. It’s also very gentle on my hair and the smell is light and not overpowering. So impressed with this product and very glad to have found it. I also appreciate their commitment to using good ingredients. Definitely recommend to any curly/wavy haired people looking for a great conditioner.Hannah

Okay, at first I was suspicious about this product because I really only knew Sun Bum for their sunscreen so I was a little confused seeing they did products for hair. But guys…this product is AMAZING. As someone who constantly buys products to help her curly hair, this has been a life changer. I bought this on a whim because I was like, what's the harm in another product supposedly for curly hair? Boy was I surprised!! I used to cowash because I was having such a hard time keeping my hair from getting frizzy but as a consequence my roots would get kinda greasy and sometimes my curls didn't look as hydrated as the cowash would advertise. Finallyyyyy I found a product that actually hydrates my hair, makes it look great curly, and isn't making it frizzy or puffy. The only con about this product is that I really really wish they made versions of this product in larger bottles because the conditioner tends to go quickly especially if you have long curly hair like me. But the price isn't too bad to restock when I need to. Totally recommend!Sarah

Delicious! Smells so good! I bought it to control frizz in my wavy hair. I am using in conjunction with the Curls & Waves Styling Creme and it is a nice combo for soft hair. It has not tamed my frizz yet, but I am not giving up hope just yet. Will keep using it for awhile to see where I end up. Beach hair may just always be frizzy!Chez H.

Using the shampoo my hair felt like a cloud, now no I've never touch a cloud but I imagine it's quite soft and fluffy. Now don't get me wrong I'm a garnier girl at heart and no I'm not going to switch out my maoke syrup shampoo for this yet completely but its s definite kicker. Love how my hair felt after the very however I think an ingredient in it awoke my dandruff, disaster. This probably happened because I decided to dive into the line using nothing but pink lemonade my hair probably couldn't handle the drastic change. Who knows definitely not me all ik is I'm back on sulphur8 hoping to take this beast once again. For the conditioner I didn't find it to have much slip for detangling, I didn't have an issue as once my hair gets water it detangles but more slip needed. For the 5 minute mask ofc I never leave it for 5 mins probably 30 tbh. It's not as good as the garnier 5 minute mask that's for sure but it does it's job.thea.q

This is really fantastic shampoo. My hair has been really prone to getting tangled lately and since I've been using this shampoo it's been much easier to comb. It's also one of the few shampoos that entirely gets rid of my frizz. My hair stays very soft for days afterwards. The only reasons I didn't give it five stars is because it isn't available in a bigger bottle like most brands have. Most brands have a regular size bottle and a 'jumbo' size one. My hair is down to my hips so it doesn't take long for me go through a bottle (usually about two weeks or so). I would love to have a bigger size so I don't have to constantly go out and buy it.DLS

Some harmful ingredients. Phenoxyethanol is a synthetic preservative that's manufactured using a complex process where phenol is treated with ethylene oxide. … Ethylene oxide, also known as carbolic acid, is a colorless gas or liquid that is considered carcinogenic. Polysorbate 20 is derived from sorbitol, a natural ingredient. However, polysorbate 20 is not a natural ingredient. In fact, it is a carcinogen due to the fact that it is treated with 20 parts of ethylene oxide. … People who make their own beauty products often use polysorbate 20 as an emulsifying agent. Fragrance/Parfum, the primary concern is that there is no full ingredient disclosure when "fragrance" or "parfum" is listed on a hair or cosmetic product. The source, and what the ingredient is comprised of, and at what concentration is unknown to the consumer. This lack of disclosure casts a wide net of health concerns, ranging from skin, respiratory, and eye allergies, to dermatitis and potential reproductive effects. Bummed.Bobbie0

The saying a little goes a long way applies here. I used less than a quarter size dollop to wash my past shoulder length hair. The lather was amazing, and let's not forget the the lovely citrus smell. My curls have stayed in days longer than with any other curl shampoo. It is a bit pricey but so worth it I can't wait to purchase again. Highly recommend for curly hair woman!johannah.k

Aveda products have a great reputation and is a well known stable product. I tried this shampoo for approximately 6 months and it didn't suit my curly/wavy hair. Nice looking professional packing that smells delightful. Unfortunately I am unable to list and visible benefits to the appearance/texture of my hair so promptly stopped using it. So sorry to say this isn't for me, we are all different. I would recommend try before you buy if possible. I personally will not be using again. I have since found an amazing product that I adore.LaceyAM

Well, super bummed. I liked the light scent. It doesn't smell "good" but not bad either and it doesn't linger so I don't care about that. First time I used, literally thought I forgot to rinse conditioner out. So I washed next day (usually only wash twice a week). My hair was fine, but seemed a bit heavy. Used it yesterday without the conditioner this time because I used a hair mask (which I've been using for years). Could tell immediately when rinsing the mask my hair felt really weird. Then again today everything but the top most layer is a weird filmy greasy mess! So it's not just the conditioner, but the shampoo. It leaves a gross film on my hair making it super greasy. I have an oilier scalp but I can still go days between washes. This stuff somehow has the strands extremely oily! Will definitely return this one. Love the ghost oil and their purple hair mask though!Haleygb

If I had never tried this brand quite some time ago in a Sephora Play box (remember those?) I would be kicking myself for sleeping on it! I fell in love with the “ghost oil” first, and from there I jumped in hard to the brand. The volume shampoo (and the equally awesome conditioner counterpart) have turned out to be amongst my favs! I love the smell- clean and fresh without being too overwhelming. I’m a hard sell on shampoo, but this is a nice size for the $20 price point and it has a good lather, so it should last for a decent amount of time. I also really like that VERB is both cruelty and SLS free, uses sunflower oil as a natural hair protector and vitamin B5 to add thickness to the hair. It’s rather hard to be the judge of whether or not a product produces enough volume simply Bc we all prefer differing levels of volume in our hair, but I do enjoy the way this shampoo performs in my hair, and I’ve been able to regularly produce and reproduce“voluminous hairstyles” that I’m fond of when I use this shampoo and conditioner set.Reatha24

I was not the biggest fan of Verb Volume Shampoo. I have fine, curly hair that gets weighed down easily. I have lost some volume/thickness during the pandemic for some reason, so I am always looking to thicken and give myself some lift and volume. First, I am big on scent and I don’t need my products to smell like anything specific, as long as it smells good. I didn’t like the smell of the Verb Volume Shampoo or Conditioner at all. It reminded me of Matrix Biolage, which is one of my least favorite brands and scents. I can get past the scent if the product works. I can honestly say I didn’t notice much of a difference as far as the volume my hair had after blow drying it straight. But I will say that the shampoo definitely didn’t weigh my hair down, which is great. I do like Verb as a brand, and recommend it to people. This particular product was just not for me.beccalec

I really wanted to like this product! I was excited to try it, It smells greattt! But I naturally have super thick/long hair and it did not do a good job of making my hair feel clean. My hair still felt dirty, greasy and itchy when I got out of the shower. It also produces very little suds, which is something I need a lot of to properly clean my thick hair. I even reapplied it, and tried to emulsify it while in the shower and still nothing. It might be a good one for some, but for all my thicker haired gals, this isn't the one. Just a heads up!Karigan

I work at Ulta so naturally I love trying different products. Since it’s close to summer I wanted to stop styling my hair and instead start wearing it natural (in the summer it’s just way too hot to style my thick hair and the humidity makes it not last anyways!). However, I have wavy hair with the potential to be curly with the right shampoo/ styling products. So, I wanted to try the coconut curls line to see if I could enhance my waves/ curls and it worked! It also smells so good and I got so many compliments. I recommend not only getting the shampoo and conditioner but also the styling milk and finishing mist! And for maximum curls try sleeping with two French braids in!!emilyp333

I brought this product for a cheaper alternative. I was really disapointed with the results and damage ir had done to my hair. It made me lose hair, made my hair dry and frizzy. Although it smells nice its completly ruined my curls and turned them back to frizz. Not a good product. Shea moistuer is amazing!! It is just quite expensive! However it nutures your curls and revitlize them in the long-term.123

Ladies, you have to use the WHOLE system to see true results. Can't just use shampoo and conditioner to see much of a difference. Pending on your curl type, you need to use the finishing products after the shampoo and conditioner. I was skeptical at first, so I purchased the "Starter Kit" for my curl type. When I used all 4 products together, WOW!!!!! My curls have never looked so good! It's not cheap when you go into buying all 4 in full size… But, oh so worth it! I've recommended this line to several people, and they have all agreed with me you have to use the entire line to really get the full benefit, especially the Curl Defininf Gel. That's a life changer!!! My hair dresser LOVES Living Proof everything, and recommended this line to me. So glad she did!Ashli123

For years I worked laboriously to smooth, straighten, transform my natural curly hair. I finally gave in, as my hair grew more & more silver and a different texture! So I embraced my curly hair and started the process of finding quality products. I found them , but they all smelled exactly the same! Then I saw an ad for Living Proof Curl Products. Absolutely no coconut, beach smell!.. just fresh flowers, gentle breezes, with a hint of a subtle spice that smells like sunshine!! They are a bit pricey, but it’s by far, hands down, the cleanest, fresh smelling curl product out there! I confess I use it when I need an extra “oomph “ to my ego. This shampoo gets so many compliments. It’s that “special date” shampoo!dked

I was very excited to try Living Proof Curl Shampoo since I had heard positive things about the brand, but was hesitant to purchase since it’s a little higher end. I have very frizzy, full, curly hair. It’s also dry from coloring and heat styling and some of the curl shape has been lost from Keratin treatment from years ago and constant straightening. Some curl styling products don’t do much for my hair. I was SO impressed with this product. I have had an issue lately when I comb my wet hair. I typically wore my hair straight and now that I’ve been wearing it naturally curly, sometimes I just twist it into a bun and this seems to give me a lot of tangles. Lately after showering, despite combing my wet hair immediately, I have bad tangling and knotting. This also results in more hair coming off on my comb. However, after using this shampoo in conjunction with the Living Proof Curl Conditioner, I didn’t have this problem. I was so happy that I didn’t have a tough time combing my wet hair and have a bunch of hair come out. It was so much easier to comb through my hair and miraculously I didn’t have an abundance of tangles or knots. The smell is so pleasant as well and my hair even held the scent the following day. Now that I’ve tried it, I can better justify a higher price point. Great product!JennBenz

I have frizzy , fine hair and the davines love smoothing shampoo really helps a lot with the smoothing process even before I use styling aids. This range is Rich in fatty acids and vitamins, I always want products that have a lot to offer. The formula has a high percentage of biodegradable ingredients. The davines brand is also sulphate free so people that have Brazilians or any color/ chemical treatment done can use it. The packaging is reusable. Price is in the same range as those of salon products. I reverted to the love smoothing range for my daily use, I still alternate with a few others, depending on what my hair needs.monique.o

This is the best shampoo I have ever used! I received a sample of it in my subscription box and was amazed at the fact that it had more then one use in it! The shampoo spread nicely which is why there was more then one use in it. I have long hair too! It made my hair soft and shiny and healthy looking! It's hard to do that with my dry, brittle hair. It is quite expensive but worth every penny and then some. I always purchase in bulk when I get my taxes so I will have enough for the entire year. I highly reccomend this to anyone looking to truly fix thier hair!beth marie.b

I received this in a gift set a while back. It wasn’t bad. But I wasn’t as wowed by it as I have been by other shampoos. However I guess that’s better than being extremely let down? On the plus, my hair was soft and shiny after use. So it’s worth a try but me person, it’s not something I would go out of my way to purchase.libby.b

I don't blow dry nor do I dye my hair. I use hair creams and sometime flexible styling hair sprays not related to this brand. With that said, with this shampoo I sometimes have to lather twice to really feel like I fully removed any hair products, other than that, this shampoo does lather well & has a soft smell to it. It's winter here at the moment and this shampoo is not helping with my winter dandruff, which it's okay, I scalp detox once a week & that helps for a while, not this brand either, but I'm mentioning it incase you think it helps moisturize your scalp. As for conditioner, I use a different brand too & thanks because I like how my conditioner defines my curls but unfortunately this other brand conditioner does not add volume, niece I'm done with what I have, I'll try the conditioner for Ouidad.Discovering curly hair products

This curl cream would be great for you if you’re not looking to have too much hold in your hair. It’s thick, but it doesn’t create a very strong cast for me. As you can see, my hair is already frizzing at the roots and it’s not completely dry yet. There’s no cast to scrunch out. The pump is also really hard to use and only dispenses like a dime size of product with each pump, which means I need to pump twice just to get enough for one section of hair. It is very hydrating, so I can’t knock it down too much, but it is probably my least favorite ouidad product, which is saying a lot because I LOVE ouidad. Basically, just stick to the hydrating gel.rhina maylin.l

This is my new favorite shampoo. I've tried MANY from various curl lines. I have fine wavy hair that's prone to frizz. It is also slightly damaged with bleach. I have struggled with dry scalp for a long time as well. This shampoo not only cleans well, but it doesn't leave my scalp nor my hair feeling dried out at all. It's moisturizing and cleansing. OkayMishi

I am about 3/4 through my first bottle and it’s lasted me 1 month – I absolutely love it. My hair is noticeable fuller and bouncier after using this and is super soft to the touch. I have oily fine hair so this definitely fits my criteria for a solid conditioner. Special kudos to the smell. It’s so luxurious and reminds me of the expensive French bathroom products my mum used to use when I was little (LOVE).Goldengirl94

Oh. Em. Gee. I was so close to not even trying this, I had been given a sample to try and almost gave it away but I finally tried it after a long stressful day and omg.. the smell alone sent me to heaven. I mean I know most hair products smell good but this is like a perfume for your hair, which this company actually makes a hair fragrance (I did some research after trying this mask) so I'm not surprised that this smells so good, but I mean it REALLY smells good! And as for the results, my hair is bleached and has about 6 different colors in it, it's long, down to my butt, and VERY dry/brittle. I didn't think the mask would do much but it doesn't have that dry tangled feeling to it like normal when I wash it, it felt sooo luxurious and soft. I am so thoroughly impressed, that I ordered a full size bottle right after trying it. It's THAT good! And I suggest getting it on eBa-ha-y or Mercri so it's not super expensive either! I spent more than I normally would have, at $17 for a bottle, and I'd be surprised if anyone can find it that cheap again, but hey, this stuff is my new therapy in a bottle baby! Come to MAMA!jamie.r

I love Hask, but this shampoo is terrible. It did nothing for my curls! It left my hair lifeless, didn't help my curls at all, and the frizz…omg the frizz! I don't think I've ever seen my hair this frizzy before in my life! No idea what's going on with this formula, but it, unfortunately, made my hair worse and I will never try it again. In the trash it goes. I have types 2b and 3a hair.Alicia

I got the Husk curl care detangling conditioner and it left my hair easy to manage. The consistency of the conditioner was just right. Not too thick but not too runny. It applied well and evenly to my hair. The conditioner coated the strands and wasn't messy. I usually let conditioner sit on my hair with a plastic cap for 10-20 minutes. I was able to comb through my hair with minimal tangles and the small ones I had were easy to get through. My hair felt soft and moisturized. The conditioner is vegan and had no sulphates or parabens. It's complete with coconut oil, argan oil, and vitamin to give my hair what it needs to be manageable and look great.Ajann1983

LOVE IT!!!!! I was to the point I was going to cut my hair short due to always having tangles easy, frizzy, puffy hair I had it…. I was going to give this Detangler conditioner and shampoo a try first. It smells good I use both every other day I even tried the leave in spray on my hair. Now I will say all 3 kind of made my hair greasy after a day or two, but just the shampoo and conditioner worked great for me. My hair seems straightened after a shower, shiny and smooth. I die my hair a lot and so I never really had shinny smooth hair before this product I absolutely love it……….Brittany

Between daily (sweaty) workouts and the use of Minoxidil for FPHL, my scalp becomes unbearably itchy. I MUST cleanse my scalp daily, lest I tear it up with my fingernails! My 3a-3b curls can't handle daily shampooing, and dry shampoo is a definite no for me, so I cowash every day and clarify/chelate once per week. I have tried many brands of cowash, and this is the only one that truly cleanses my scalp without leaving my hair either weighed down or dry and frizzy. I live a desert climate, so the fact that I can use this alone and still have soft, hydrated curls is truly amazing. With FPHL, I keep close tabs on my hair fall. I can honestly say that I have not experienced any extra shedding after using this product 6 days a week over the last 2 years. This was actually the first Curlsmith product I purchased. Since that time, I've become a true Curlsmith devotee. I can't tell you how many products from other brands I've tried and binned! With the exception of my shampoo, it's Curlsmith all the way! Thank you for your wonderful products!!!Magdaline

So far i have only tried the Curl Quenching Conditioning Wash and the Double Cream Deep Quencher and I love the results! I was pleased with how clean my hair felt after using the wash, and how incredibly soft it felt after using the cream after only using a small amount! The wash works well with the density of my hair.So far i have not styled my hair after using this product, I go to bed and wear it up the next day at work because i work outside. However, when i took it out of the braid it was so soft and pretty frizz and tangle free for not having used any stylers! I love this line so far and I cannot wait to try some styling products and see how well it holds and prevents frizz.Kelly N.

I LOVE this product! My hair feels clean and conditioned . I have been having a issue with frizz so I thought I would change my product line I have been using for over 4 years. Took the Curlsmith questionnaire and ordered the products that were recommended. So glad I did. My hair is smooth and has a shine. Going into fall and season changes my hair always needs something extra. Curlsmith has everything I need for great results. I have used the products 4 washes now and have loved the results each time .Deborah M.

It's a little expensive running about 10 to 11 dollars a bottle. Im Telling you though it's worth it. It's not just for curly hair either. I have straight hair that can get messy and this product can tame the beast. There is no oily feeling afterwards just clean soft hair. I definitely recommend trying this product. I really think you would enjoy it.sara.d

I’m one to put conditioner on my hair and leave it on for 5-20 minutes depending on how I feel. My hair feels absolutely amazing when I use the conditioner. I’ve tried to stay away from coconut oil products but this product is great. Would defiantly recommend this to any curly girl! I love the pump it makes it easy to use especially since I wash my hair in the sink and water often runs over my eyes. The packaging is super cute and the coconut image across the top band let me know without having to read that there is coconut something in it. My hair did feel a lot softer after I used it. I have a sensitive nose so I can’t use some products because of the smell. This scent wasn’t too overpowering, I actually thought it was pretty good. My hair even stayed moisturized when I was twisting my hair. Usually by the time I get to the front of my hair it’s dry simply because how long it takes me to get to it, but even with my hair not feeling wet to touch, it still felt moisturized.eliza.s

This shampoo does wonders for my natural hair. I love the creamy to sudsy consistency, it really makes me feel like the product is getting deep into my scalp and hair shafts. Also, a little goes a long way, If you’re a curly girl you understand how important this is! The best part is my hair instantly softens while lathering in the shampoo which makes it so much more manageable. It also has this very soft, delicious, coconut scent to it that adds to the experience of the product. I’d definitely recommend.jayda.a

The first time I tried this it was based on a recommendation from my daughter. I had never even heard of this brand before. The curl conditioner and the curl shampoo are nothing less than miraculous. I am in love with both of these products. I went to visit my mom recently. I was pulling my teardrop camper so I just wanted travel sizes. I thought I could make do for a week using some other products I had in travel sizes. No. No. No. I ended up going out and buying new bottles because I couldn’t stand to be without them.carla.b

So I was very hesitant to try this shampoo because of some of the reviews but now I regret not trying it sooner. Some of the complaints are that it doesn’t get your hair clean and i feel like that may be true if you’ve only ever used shampoos with silicones and switch to this. You have to use the clarifying shampoo first if you have never used silicone free before otherwise the moisture won’t get to your hair because of the silicone still left on your hair strands. This shampoo makes my hair so soft and has such a luxurious lather. I didn’t think I would like the nozzle but the shampoo is a thinner consistency so it comes out easily and deposits right on the scalp. I think I’ve finally found my holy grail shampoo. My hair is no longer frizzy and my curls are defined. You have to try it!paigespink

The one good thing about this shampoo is the packaging. The product goes directly onto the scalp with the perfectly sized nozzle. That's it though. The shampoo smells like men's deodorant. The smell doesn't fade, either. The shampoo doesn't rinse clean. My hands and hair felt oily and heavily conditioned just from the shampoo. It left a film on my hair that seemed to make it fall straight down. All of my waves and curls hung limply, with no definition, lots of frizz, and just awful. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS SHAMPOO. *I'm going to review the conditioner and weightless shine jelly separately, but they are awful as well. Why does every single thing smell like Axe body spray? Or is it Old Spice dragon egg something or another?Stephanie M

First of all, I love the packaging. If I was going into a store with no idea on what anti-frizz products to choose, I would be immediately drawn to this range. It’s a fantastic choice in packaging design; very aesthetically pleasing and likely now my favourite hair product packaging. The colours are right up my alley. The usability of the packaging is also fantastic. The squishy tube is super easy to squeeze, making using this with wet/slippery hands no trouble at all. It also ensures the product is completely depleted when finished, either squeezing it out or cutting open the packaging which isn’t easy with hard plastic packaging. This shampoo is lightly fragranced and I quite enjoy the pretty scent which isn’t overpowering at all, and doesn’t seem to linger. I didn’t need to use much to create a large amount of foam which lathered quickly, which is exactly how I prefer shampoos to act. I love the addition of Aloe Vera in products as I find it hydrating and soothing, which this shampoo is. It wasn’t irritating or drying for my scalp and my hair felt decently hydrated and soft afterwards. It’s no substitute for a proper hydrating shampoo though if you have really dry hair (though I did find the matching smoothing crème adds some lovely hydration). The shampoo was also easy to rinse out, which is always a plus, meaning I could move onto the next step in my hair care routine and have more time for other things later. Using this with the conditioner, the amount of frizz in my hair was greatly reduced. I experienced very minimal frizz which is usually unheard of unless I smother it with something which makes me also look greasy and/or weighs it down. Instead, for the extra frizz that appears when in humid environments, or when my hair gets damp from rain or perspiration, I can now use the matching smoothing crème for that unwelcome frizz and look like I’m not using any product. It really is weightless, as well as non-greasy. If you have any amount of frizz and want to reduce it without sacrificing the bounce and lightness of your natural hair, I highly recommend giving this shampoo and the matching conditioner and smoothing crème a try. Not only do they work, they also look fabulous in your bathroom.Evelyn H.

I have pin straight hair. My daughter on the other hand has the beautiful, bouncy ringlets I have always wanted. Because I'm totally in the dark on how to do/what to use on her hair, it has been a major learning curve to have her hair really be as beautiful as it can be every day. I have purchased MANY products, including some that were way too expensive in trying to learn what her hair needs. It wasn't until I received a sample of John Frieda Dream Curls Conditioner from PinchMe, that I knew I found it! To be fair, I used the sample both with (I went out and purchased it) and without John Freida Dream Curls shampoo. For starters, this conditioner has a nice, silky feel and a rather dense consistency. Because I know her hair needs a thicker conditioner, I was already excited. It has a very wonderful and somewhat strong (but not nauseating) fresh scent that does carry onto the hair well. It works through wet hair very well and makes detangling easy. It rinses out easily from the hair and keeps a good amount of moisture locked in. After showing, her hair was very easy to comb. We are both VERY pleased at the results of this conditioner! (That's why I went out and purchased the shampoo!) It keeps the hair very moisturized, makes it super silky and shiny and gives her gorgeous ringlets incredible definition, body and bounce! He hair feels healthy, smells amazing (which is incredible because she is 11 and has that hormonal head/hair now that needs to be washed daily), and it feels and looks SO HEALTHY! I know everyone's hair is different and what may work for some may not work for others (you can see the evidence of that by looking at all the products in my bathroom), but I feel like this conditioner is great for anyone with big loopy curls, waves, and even straight hair that needs extra moisture! Bottom line, I'm VERY happy I've finally found the perfect product/s for my daughter hair and that they are affordable too!gina_ny_btkt6

While I did receive John Frieda Dream Curls Conditioner complimentary from PINCHme, my opinions are honest and my own. I don’t have DEEPLY curly hair but I do have a wave to my hair, which is a fine texture. I live in an area that also has a high humidity so it’s so important to have protection against the dreaded frizz! After a hair wash, I applied the cream based conditioner and as my usual process I left it in for a few minutes to really set in and soak into my hair. I really loved the scent, pleasant but not overpowering, just light and relaxing! It left my hair feeling clean and nourished, smooth to the touch with the benefit of keeping the hair detangled. It’s also sulfate and paraben-free, which I find treats my hair well. After letting my hair dry (I generally let it naturally dry unless I need to style it) I felt it really still felt moisturized and healthy, ready to take on styling but to give my hair natural bounce and strength. I would absolutely recommend this for anyone with wave to curly hair to add benefit to those lovely locks of hair!!holly_fl_blkjx
