| Anyone w/naturally curly hair??? If any of you YT have naturally curly hair I am wondering what kind of styling product you use? I have been using Defining Elixer by Biolage. I use to get it on a big pump tub from about $20-$25 but now I can only get it on a 4.2oz for $10 and it is very hard to find. I am trying out other products and am wondering if anyone has any suggestions!!!! Thanks for your help! |

| My hair is curly but only on the bottom...the top feathers back, the ends curl under and the rest just curls. I love my curly hair and I learned a long time ago to go with it instead of trying to fight it. I use Ausie moist shampoo/conditioner and a lightweight detangler or watered down conditioner (only left on long enough to comb through with a wide toothed comb) to remove any tangles from washing. If I use anything heavy my hair doesn't curl very nice and it won't hold the curl from a curling iron when I use it on the top. |

| I have naturally curly hair - but not too curly, more like curly/wavey. My favorite product is by Got2B - it is called So Smooth Miracle Repair Treatment (it is a spray). It keeps the frizz at bay wonderfully!! Unfortunately, Got2B discontinued it and replaced it with a cream formula that isn't anywhere near as good. I buy it on Ebay for as long as I can find it!!! I then use the Got2B Curled-up Spray to help shape the curls without making the hair stiff!!!

mine is the same. i have coarse frizzy big hair. i use frizz-ease which has been the only product that has worked for me. i have tried all of the salon products and spent thousands on others. my hair is hopeless. my father has the MICHAEL BRADY (brady bunch) hair and my mother has the most beautiful curly silky hair. so i could not get away from curly hair. the new flat irons are the BOMB. but i only straighten my hair about 1 every two months. NOW IN THE 80'S I HAD THE BEST HAIR EVER. i cannot wait til that style comes back but i think i will be too old to wear it.

Mine has grown some but I swear ...it gets TALL before long. It's just a never ending source of dislike for me - I love straight hair...people with straight hair can go curly - but us curlies have a hard time going straight (Lord that sounds perverted !!) lol | |

| i have naturally curly hair...I have been through a million different products. For the past few years I have been using Pantene Pro-V Curl Defining Mousse. I also love the Got2B Freezing Hair spray. Both products work really well and seem to be the easiest on my very fragile hair. Not to mention the price is a lot less than salon brands. |

| I've always had naturally curly hair. The longer it gets, the curlier it gets. when its short is has deep waves. I use to want it to be straight when I was younger, nothing worked but I did win most beautiful hair in high school, so I suppose I shouldnt complain. they had a little paper come out every so often and they took votes before it printed on the most beautiful eyes, hair, teeth, smile etc. So I was happy. Now i've gotten older and wish my hair was still jet black and curly. now its white and cut short so its wavy as long as I keep it short. I know the feeling of wanting that long soft straight hair tho, just never knew how to get it.

| I have naturally curly hair. Mine's the opposite of some here, though. The shorter it goes, the curler it tends to get. Less weight, I guess. I use Redken Color Extend shampoo and Redken All Soft conditioner. For styling, I use Dove curl mouse and the new L'Oreal Curl spray gel. I've never liked spray gels because they usually caused frizz for me, but when they discontinued my L'Oreal Lasting Curls gel, I gave the spray gel a shot... and I love it!! It's great for reviving curls for an evening out as well. I also used the Pantene curl defining mousse. It works well, also. I am probably in the minority as far as wanting straight hair. I love my curly hair and have no desire to straighten it. I'm thrilled with the curlies God gave me! |

| I have naturally curly hair too. I find that I need to change products every few months to keep it from looking weighed down Leave in conditioner is a must for me and the right hair cut. |

My Tiny Treasures Donating Member | I have natural curl too, although not too many know I am fortunate enough to easily straighten it with a flat iron or scruntch it up for curls. Today I am curly So I can change and I like that! I currently have been using TRESemme' styling products and Pantene Shampoos and Conditoners. I love being able to go either curly or straight so easily!!! |
