Original Curl Keeper Anti-Frizz Curl Defining Hair Styler (12 Oz) - Lightweight Curl Definer Liquid Gel for All Weather Conditions - Wavy & Curly Hair Products for Women (Cream Alternative)

This stuff is amazing. I've tried and tried to find a better-priced alternative that I can get locally, but I haven't found its equal--even in professional beauty supply stores. I've been using it for years, so the price increase (it's doubled in price in the past few years) has been a difficult pill to swallow. I will keep searching for a replacement. For specifics about why I like it: it keeps my hair from frizzing and holds my curl pattern while it dries. It's crunchy until it's fully dry, then I can break the cast and the crunchiness is gone, leaving natrual-looking curls. Sometimes it seems like it's less effective at keeping the curls intact, so I use a clarifying shampoo from time to time to prevent buildup. I also love the original scent--if it was stronger, I would worry about chemicals that damage hair, but it's subtle enough to alleviate that concern.

This is the ultimate the bomb dot com product!!!! I've seen many people on YouTube trying this product out. Which I found after I seen it here on Amazon first. I really like to do my homework per say when I find something that intrigues me or looks to be an ideal product for my particular needs. Now with that being said , I've also noticed many people misrepresenting the product calling it a hair gel. It is called The Original.. It is a very good product with a very light sort of hold but not a sticky residue gel feel or really gel results. It's very thin in consistancy. I personally have to use a hair gel or hair cream with this product because I need more hold. The Curly hair Solutions Curl Keeper Original is for frizz control trust me it definitely works for anyome who is looking to have Beautiful, Amazing,frizz free head of hair. FOR DAYS!! This product is the real deal. It isn't counterfeit as I've seen some other reviews saying that it isn't real. It is 100% REAL!! It is a water based product. Which allows you to reactivate next day hair with just some spritz of water from your favorite water bottle a little bit of scrunching or whatever way works best for you & your personal hair style then like magic, WALLAH!! A beautiful shiny fizz free bouncy curly head of hair!! Oh yeah & it will NOT I repeat NOT leave you with crunchy or ramon noodle curls. Nope nada it will leave you with a head of soft bouncy shiny beautiful curls that everyone will want to put their hands in. ( I know trust me, it's certainly a nice compliment. Yet can become a bit overwhelming, like hands to yourself folks) Lol. This product Hasnt let me down since the very first time I've used it. A matter of fact I am a product junkie. I have so many hair products & I've purchased this one more than once. I have not purchased something more than once in years & i am 47 years young. Lol!!! Give it a try, I am sure you will be as happy as I've been!!! Tha mks for reading my review..

I’m officially on my second bottle of Original Curl Keeper, and that alone says a lot. Even though I have naturally straight hair, this product gives me amazing body and soft curls with just a little scrunching. It gives my hair exactly what I want—light, defined, and touchable without any of that sticky or crunchy feeling you get from so many other products. I love how it keeps everything looking natural while still holding shape. Best of all, it doesn’t weigh my hair down or leave it feeling greasy. My hair feels bouncy, soft, and full of life. Definitely a staple in my routine now—highly recommend if you want effortless volume and curl without the heaviness.

This is one of my favorite hair products, second time ordering. Only problem was the cap was broken, found a spare bottle to put it in the shower, problem solved!

Keeps my curls for days.

Generally, I really like using this oil. It does well for my hair. However, somewhere between buying the first bottle, and buying this second bottle, the company's packaging has went seriously downhill. Downhill. The accompanying the picture shows that it arrived with no top! This is going to make it very difficult to dispense, and I'll have to find some way of creating something leak-proof to keep it closed. Very disappointed in the packaging. I guess I should be thankful that the little cardboard piece didn't get punctured and spill all over the place in transit. *Edited to add: they did send me a replacement bottle, so hopefully this was just an odd bottle.

I have been using CHS Curl Keeper for several years. My hair is Type 2 A/B on top and 3A on the rest. The individual hairs are fine, but I have a LOT of it, and it turned white when I was a teenager so it is color treated. I use CK as part of a cocktail including a hard hold gel and a curl activator. What makes it different is that it is not a fussy product - I cannot use too much of it. It never flakes and all I have to do to eliminate the crunchy cast is scrunch it out, then my hair is soft, defined, shiny (without looking wet) and frizz-free. It has also never made my scalp itch..lots of other products do. The only thing I could criticize is that it has the potential to be ever so slightly drying, however, this isn’t a problem with proper conditioning beforehand and if needed, a leave-in conditioner. This is not a gel that’s meant to provide hold - it has none. It has a watery consistency (like KY lube-also a dupe for this gel) and can be used alone or as a companion to gel and curl cream. It plays nicely with any other product you throw into the mix. It is not heavy, greasy, sticky or producty - once dry, you cannot feel it in your hair. I swear by this product and would go so far as calling it holy grail. I have tried MANY other things over the years but have failed to find anything that keeps the shrub on my head under control. What’s more is that it is designed for ALL curl types, 2-4...and it’s silicone free so it is Curly Girl Method approved.

Very good hold on my tight 3b/4a curl pattern. It's a medium liquid gel - easy to control and apply. I use the "praying hands-and-scrunch" methods. It's not the thick glob type of gel. As per instructions, I applied to soaking wet hair. To refresh the curls, I just spritzed dry hair with a water bottle. The spritzing reactivated the gel and I didn't need to add any extra product in general. Sometimes on Day 2 or 3, I'd need to add a bit of CurlKeeper because of outdoor humidity, rain or snow. The product dries clear; there was no white flaking whatsoever. This is a very nice styling product to keep in my styling /refreshing arsenal.

La botella es enorme, es suficiente cantidad del producto para varios meses, aunque hay que usar mucho, como lo indican las instrucciones. Hasta ahora me ha funcionado bien, mi cabello es 3A/3B y aunque no me encanta cómo queda, es lo único que me ha funcionado desde que descontinuaron el gel que usaba, no tengo frizz y los rizos se quedan en su lugar. No me ha servido para más de un día, no se mantienen los rizos. Es recomendable usar vinagre para balancear el PH después de usarlo un tiempo, porque se va quedando en el cabello algún residuo y humectar con algún tratamiento, porque mientras más sano esté el cabello, este producto funciona mejor. Espero poder adquirir más y que se venda toda la línea de la marca.

I have used this product for close to 10 years. I love it and frequently recommend to friends and colleagues with curly hair. What I like best about it is it allows me to wash my hair less frequently. Those with shorter curly hair, who dreads the morning "bed head" with curls sitting on one side of your head. The morning hair that forces you to wash your hair, or minimally wet and condition it so it will look decent until you sleep again. A quarter sized amount in the palm of your hand after being freshly washed is all you need. Wake up with "bed head" simply spritz with water (I purchased my spritzer bottle from Amazon as well) and finger style your hair. I can even go from flat iron straight back to my curly locks, it does, however; take a bit more water. Finally this is the forth bottle I have purchased in the close to 10 years I have been using this product. I use it every time I wash my hair (weekly). So economically it is a fabulous product. BTW the product was recommended to me by "The Curly Hair Institute" in Toronto.

First I received the pack open and one of the bottle open too and some of the product was spilled ! the bottle are very big didn't expect that much, I wish if the product was more effective I used to curly my hair and got lovely curl with cheaper product and I wanted to try out this one but this product doesn't give me the define curls like I used to have with other products -Maybe I do not know how to used it properly- For the result it gave me, I think it way too expensive

Es lo único que me funciona en clima de casi 100% humedad, como en costa o en lugares donde siempre llueve todo el día. Lo uso sin crema o leave-in previo, para evitar el frizz. Es perfecto y es limpio para el método Curly Girl.

Es un buen producto, y dura bastante, se debe poner lo estrictamente necesario o de lo contrario el cabello se pone duro y poco flexible. Aunque no es grado como las cremas de peinar y no deja el pelo pesado marca muy bien los rizos.
