Q: Is this for 2a/2b/3a hair? I have fine hair

submitted by Sasha - 8 years ago

  • A: It doesn't seem so...I have the type 2 hair as well and can't seem to find any of their gel/mousse for our hair type! I have been using this and it works pretty good, but dosen't seem to hold my curls very long!

    submitted byThickWavyCurlGurl - 8 years ago

  • A: Our Curly Magic Curl Stimulator works great for all hair types and textures by helping to deliver defined yet highly moisturized and shiny curls, coils, and kinks. It works perfectly on fine textured strands and a little goes a long way.

    submitted byUncle Funkys Daughter - 7 years ago

Q: Will this work on my 3A hair (fine, w/ loose curls, and pretty flat at the roots--I'm white) -- that is, will it define my loose curls or is it made for stronger curls/coils?, and will this weigh down my hair, furthering the root-lift problem? Tx.

submitted by Jay - 5 years ago

  • A: I was kind of hesitant to buy this but I was looking for something to make my fuzzy hair more curly. I'm white too and this stuff works great. After 3 pumps, I use Got2Be gel to finish my look.

    submitted byKelKel917 - 4 years ago

  • A: Hi! Yes, Curly Magic would be perfect for your hair type. It is lightweight, so it will not weigh down your hair and it will help define your curls without the crunch. We suggest applying on very wet hair and a little goes a long way.

Q: I'm sensitive to fragrances, even natural ones. Is this very strongly fragranced? I also have a really sensitive and reactive scalp too. Is this good for sensitive scalps? Thank you.

submitted by Eronel - 6 years ago

  • A: This product has a Natural Fragrance *All Natural or Naturally Derived. It is made with natural ingredients so I don't think you would have a reaction to the product.

    submitted byBeauty Advisor - 6 years ago

  • A: I am sensitive to fragrances too. The fragrance is overpowering unfortunately. I bought it due to great reviews and to support, but unfortunately will not be a return customer due to the fragrance.

Q: Many products give me good curl formation but by the end of the day, my curls are soft and fuzzy. How will this product fix that problem?

submitted by myrnafaye - 6 years ago

    submitted byUncle Funkys Daughter - 6 years ago

  • A: Hello, thanks for your question. Curly Magic is a premium blend of natural ingredients and is aloe based, so it's going to not only provide great curl formation, definition but it will also help to keep your hair moisturized and provide a slight hold. This will help prevent the hair from becoming frizzy and dry and lead to longevity of your style.

    Obsessed

    I have actually never been so satisfied with a hair product in my life. I have 3c/4a curls with different textures in different parts of my head. I have always struggled with keep my curls defined, frizz free without shrinkage and keeping both sides looking the same. I’ve tried so many products and layering different ones. I put just a dime size amount of the as I am leave in conditioner then followed up with the Curl Stimulator when I got out of the shower last night and I was shocked at 1. How fast it air dried 2. How elongated my curls were and I didn’t lose any length 3. How defined and even both sides of my head were. I put a silk scrunchie on and went to sleep and I was mind blown when I woke up in the morning and don’t have to do a thing to my hair before work. I am so happy with this product! Including video I sent to my best friend who gave me the rec lol and my hair when I woke up with no touch ups (which I couldn’t done but felt like it wasn’t needed lol)

    This changed how I view my curls!

    After growing up hating curls, this product helped me learn to love my natural hair texture. I apply this to damp hair. It holds my curls for days and provides definition and shine without weighing it down. My hair also stays soft and NEVER crunchy. I get so many compliments on my natural hair now and I swear it is because of this product and recommend it to everyone that asks! I have been using this product for at least 7 years now and is the one product I absolutely need in my hair routine.

    Ive been using this for year now

    I’ve been using Curly Magic for a while, and it continues to be one of my favorite products for wash day. It gives my curls great definition without leaving them crunchy or sticky, and my hair still feels soft and hydrated. It’s definitely a staple in my curly hair routine!

    Absolutely perfect. Been using for years

    I have been using this gel for 4 years now and it’s incredible. I have tried countless hair gels from high end brands and pretty much every drugstore brand. I have 3a super thick curls and this gives me beautiful definition, hold, and moisture. It’s not thick and has a lightweight texture, so it doesn’t weigh my hair down. My hair comes out frizz free and hydrated every single time. It’s just perfect and it’s a great price.

    No build up over here!

    The best for natural hair! It has an amazing slip + scent. It’s also the best alone or with just a foam. No buildup over here!

    Amazing creamy gel for curly girls

    The best curl cream/gel I’ve used and I’ve tried them all! Leaves a gentle cast to keep curl definition all day. Controls frizz and leaves hair shiny and manageable. 10/10

    New formula, WHY?

    I’v been using this product for YEARS and it was great up until this last bottle I purchased. I swear every curly hair brand will have such a beautiful product and then completely switch the formula out of nowhere and make it worse. The new scent does not smell good at all, it’s nauseating. Product is thinner and does not hold hair like before and it’s still the same price………Returning it tomorrow and will not be buying it again. This is sooooo disappointing..
