Hi All smile

I have been using the same two products now for what feels like forever - boots curl creme and Jessicurl rockin ringlets.

However I don’t think they are working as well as another product could!

I would like to give a try to some new curl enhancers so would love any recommendations that you have!

My hair is quite long and down to bra line if I pull it out so it’s quite heavy, although it’s fairly fine in texture.

Thanks smile

Hi T!

I too have fine hair although much shorter, but I find my best bet at a curl enhancer is still the Aveda Be Curly one. Although it has a cone or two and therefore is no CG, but I reckon the conditioner from the same lie (which is CG and no cones) does a good job as a leave-in too (perhaps with just a bit less hold), as the both contain wheat protein and I am fairly positive that’s what made the difference for me smile

Good luck!

My all time curl enhancer is Ag:Recoil. Don’t know where you can buy in U.K. though (I get it when over in the States). The CJ Curls in A bottle is pretty good too (Curl Junkie though not currently available in Emporium - ugh!) I am starting to freak out a little about the missing products :-( hm….Aubrey Organics MM jelly did help give me shine and definition I think. Also I had a sample size of the Aveda style prep and I really liked it, I wanted to try the Curly prep but they didn’t have any samples and it is not cheap.

Steff, PM me if you want me to send you a little of the Be Curly Style Prep in a little pot!  It’s nice stuff.


Hi! I tried to pm you but it’s not showing up so not sure it worked? Will wait and see, I am interested though thanks! grin
