Curvy Crème

I love the Firm Hold Gel used with the Curvy creme. Leaves my hair soft and frizz free.

Great product and great smell.

My stylist used this on my type 2B/2C hair and it really seemed to accentuate the curl pattern. Also, it was more "touchable" than some curl creams, so I ordered a sample to try myself. Unfortunately, with continued use, my hair became drier (and it's already on the dryer side), duller, and stringier. I believe that this is because it contains Polyquaterium 46, which I've learned is a strong cationic polymer that binds tightly to the hair shaft and has the potential to build-up. It is not easily removed without a specific clarifying ingredient that is very drying. David Hanen, as you know, there are hundreds of curly hair products out there. The trial and error involved in finding hair and person-healthy products that actually work is exhausting and expensive. Like some silicones, while polyquats are supposedly not toxic (there is a range of conflicting info available to the public), they are obviously not optimum to use as part of an ongoing routine. It's a different chemical with the same set of problems. Are there no other alternatives that work???

Excellent products! My hair looks so healthy!

Conditioning and defining. You can run your fingers through your hair, let it air dry or diffuser dry, and you have healthy, long lasting curls for days.
