Q: Can this product be used on Toddlers hair? I have a 2year old and trying to find the Right product to keep Her Beautiful Curls moisturized throughout the day.

submitted by MariKailyn88 - 2 years ago
  • A: The As I Am Curling Jelly Definer can be a great option for defining and moisturizing your toddler’s curls. It’s formulated to add shine, moisture, and hold without weighing down the hair. However, we also have a collection specifically designed for kids called Born Curly. This line is tailored to meet the needs of young, sensitive scalps and delicate curls. A product from this line, the Born Curly Argan Curl Defining Jelly, could also be an excellent choice for keeping her curls beautifully defined and moisturized throughout the day.

Really good

I liked how it defined my curls/waves and it didn’t dry out my hair. It didn’t leave any residue or flakes. It’s not a super strong cast but I like the way it worked for definition anyways.

Shipment.

I am sure this product is good for curls but I have a problem with the shipping. When I got the product it was sealed very good. But when I opened the product the seal for the product was already open and the container wasn’t filled all the way. I’m wondering maybe it spilled during the shipment or if that’s how much product you get. The product smells and feels amazing and has helped my curly hair.

Curling Jelly

I have 4b/4c hair & after adding water to my hair I use this curling jelly and run my fingers through my hair & it defines my curls & it does not flake. I get so many compliments on my short hair so im confused by all the negative reviews. I really like this product, the container is small so you'd probably need alot for longer hair but like I said before my hair is very short & it works really good for me.

Ehh

The definition in my hair only stayed the day I washed it and was gone the next day, I didn’t like that. I need a gel that is going to give at least 3 to 5 days for my wash n gos.

Not for me

I have 4c hair and do twist outs here and there. When this product dried it, it looked like it had snowed on my head. It left flakes all over the place.

Just okay

Kinda works but the smoothing gel with the as I am leave in gives me much better definition on my 3c/4a hair. I used those two with ecostyler as my final step and my hair never looked better. Also my hair stayed moisturized with essentially no tangles for over a week. That has never happened to me b4 using any styling combo. That said, I will not be purchasing the curling jelly again an will stick with the smoothing gel. Another plus with a spooning Joe is that you do not have to use it on soaking wet hair as you do with the jelly . So a lot less messy of a styling process.d

Hydrating and medium-strong hold

Such a hydrating, medium-strong hold gel for my 3c-4a curls. It is a complete dupe for the curlsmith curl defining styling soufflé.

Perfect for 2b/2c

I have 2b/2c hair that is often weighed down by products, so it is a challenge to find something that helps define my curls but is still light enough to keep them soft. I kept seeing rave reviews for this curling jelly, but assumed it was more for curlier or coily hair. I decided to take a chance and try it and I am kicking myself for waiting so long. All I can say is wow...exactly what I have been looking for all these years. My curls are really soft, well-defined, and are popping! They seem to hold their definition all day and with little to no frizz. I will definitely be repurchasing.

AMAZING for Low Porosity Wavy Hair

I've been looking for products with no protein for my low porosity wavy (2b/2c) hair and this product works great in my hair! It gives me great definition and hold! I would definitely recommend it for anyone with low porosity hair!

Awesome

I use it after I put leave-in conditioner in my hair. I put a small amount on and twist my hair into Bantu knots. They always come out great.
