Best Product for Air Dried Curly Hair

303 Posts

Hi
After a few years of being a slave to my beloved GHD's, I've decided to go back to my natural curly/wavy hair (which I quite like now and get compliments)
I currently use Keune So Pure Crystal De-Frizz which is perfect, I just apply and when air-dry just slightly fluff up and you can't tell there is any product at all but perfectly defined curls & waves - problem is it's £8 a tube and I think it's being discontinued :mad:
I've recently tried Tresemme Curl Creme but that made my hair a sticky mess :eek:
Do any of you fellow MSE'ers know of a product that won't make my hair sticky/rock hard/crispy?
Thanks

I've been through dumping the straighteners and going curly so know where your coming from, what worked for me was scrunching hair in a towel when wet rather than rubbing, a small amount of super cheap hair gel that has no alcohol in it when the hair is wet and a small amount of Avon no frizz serum also when wet, this gave me defined natural curls, no crispiness (go easy on the gel) and no flop either I also found that using a non silicone shampoo and conditioner worked wonders and gave my hair volume but the Avon product isn't much less than £8 anyway so in your case I would be inclined to buy what you can if its being discontinued (how annoying is that? always happens when you find something you like:() and stockpile if you can, its so hard to find a product you like for curly hair:wall:
My problem is that my hair only goes one day left curly - the next day it looks like nothing on earth, so it either has to be washed again, or pinned up.
I think I will stockpile, I've only seen it in one place online in the UK so just hope they haven't sold out. If they have I will certainly try your suggestions.
When I washed my hair this morning I sprayed a leave in conditioner in and then put a small amount of Aveda Elixir Leave In Conditioner Creme that I had lurking in my dressing table drawer and ran it through with my fingers - quite a good result!!!!
As for the crimping, lol, I remember it the first time round - but you never know.
I find this best too. I add some frizz ease serum and mix in my hand before applying.
Its only £1.29 for a large tub, so a real bargain. I always stockpile it when in Boots, and panic if I get low on it.
Ive recently started using a product called The Big Tease by Lush, which seems to suit my thick curly hair. Being a low maintenance girl....ahem....lazy girl, I just wash, bung in a little bit of product (soon discovered just to use a tiny amount....otherwise it really doesn't look good!), and then leave to air dry. It forms ringlets in my hair....and lasts all day, without frizz! (If you have a store nearby, they can give free mini samples to try, on request)
Hth!
i second this one!though my hair is very,very fine and curly.
i really want to have a go with the lush and the tigi ones now though:)think you can get tigi products on "cheapsmells" and get cashback through "topcashback":money:
