    The worst shampoo

    The worst shampoo I’ve ever used on my daughter. It tangled her hair so badly that I couldn’t even wash it properly, and brushing it was extremely difficult. She also started losing a lot of hair, which has never happened before. When her hair dried, her curls wouldn’t form at all, and her hair became very frizzy. I’m currently trying to restore her curls.

    I was excited to try this since we use the detangler spray and watermelon seed oil, but it did not perform well. It smells great but made my two year old’s curly hair frizzy.

    NOT tear free

    This is NOT tear free. Leafy both of my kids with stinging eyes and their hair felt dirtier after using this product than before.

    Smells great! Works well on my Grandson’s hair. The packaging on this the conditioner and the cream did split in the same spot on all 3, that could be improved but with a little tape, it was easily sealed

    Best shampoo!

    I had this shampoo for quite a long time. It’s a very hydrating shampoo, with a good foam and it’s smells like mango! My daughter is 3, and we started using it when she is been 2 years old. She never had any complaints about this shampoo. She loves the Mango smell! I would purchase it again and again! And the price is so affordable!

    Curly kids love the tear free formula

    My kids liked the tear free formula. I enjoyed that their curly hair was less tangled and easier to brush/style and it protects their curls! The conditioner is good too.

    LOVE this

    Finally! I have tried Aveeno kids curly and shea kids curly for my daughter and her hair was always frizzy and snarly. I noticed a difference in how easily her hair brushed out after ONE wash. Her curls are more defined, and way less frizz. Totally recommend this stuff

    Not as moisturizing as I expected.

    I was very disappointed in this product. I usually love NYM hair care, but this left my daughter’s hair feeling more dry and frizzy. I also used the conditioner and leave in cream. I’m sure it’s a decent product, but my daughter has very fine curls and it just did not provide enough moisture for her hair.

    Causes itchy irritated scalp

    Made my daughter's head itch so I stopped using it on her and used it myself so I wasn't wasting it and it made my scalp super irritated! It is awful, I threw the shampoo and conditioner away. I feel bad I used it on her!! She's only 6!

    NOT TEAR FREE

    Very disappointed with the false advertisement of this product! I bought it intentionally for my son with curly hair and the one tiny sud that went down to his eye irritated it. Hard to find a good curly product for him that is tear free, and this one is not it.
