JessiCurl

Curly Hair Care by Jessicurl: Jessicurl is dedicated to raising the standard of care that curly heads can provide for their hair. Every ingredient in our products has a specific benefit and purpose - there is no filler."

I have straight hair. Not stick straight, but barely a wave and nary a curl to be seen. I generally do not style my hair into anything even close to wavy or curly, but when I started hearing about Jessicurl, my interest was peaked. At the time, I didn't know one could make hair care products unless you were in a lab or something, so the idea of a gal starting her own curly hair care line was quite fascinating.

I continued to hear the buzz about Jessi's products for quite some time before I couldn't stand it any longer. I simply had to order some for myself and see how marvelous it truly was. Certainly it wouldn't live up to the hype - a handmade hair care product? I think not!

Yes, I was wrong. (Don't tell me you didn't see that one coming...) Jessicurl's products DO work!

First off, the Island Fantasy scent is divine. To die for. It might sound silly but I would use these products, even if they did nothing, just for the smell. My husband comments on how great my hair smells every time I use them. So from the scent stand point alone, Jessicurl rates a solid 10 out of 10. Yummy!

In this review, we're going to focus on my 4 favorite Jessicurl products. Having tried several of the other products available, I can unequivocally state that they are well worth the price. However, we don't have room for a novella on every product Jessicurl makes, so the following four will be covered in this review.

Gentle Lather Shampoo: As one who tries to avoid as many chemical agents as possible, the fact that Jessicurl's shampoo is SLS free is a huge bonus. The Gentle Lather Shampoo provides just that - a gentle lather that easily cleans my hair and leaves it feeling fresh and residue free. Even on my highlighted and colored hair, this shampoo cleanses without stripping or drying. It is a bit thinner than your commercial shampoos but a quick shake of the bottle before dispensing helps me to get past that. Just a small amount is enough to adequately clean my shoulder length hair.

Confident Coils Styling Solution: This product alone provides definition and hold. This is the first of the 3 styling products I now use on a daily basis. The consistency is like a conditioner and not only imparts a delicious scent to your hair, it also helps with fly away hair and static cling. With my fine, thin hair, this is a must-have styling solution. Whether going curly or straight, Confident Coils provides needed hold.

Gelebration Spray: My absolute favorite! You know what I hate most about mainstream hair care products? The smell of alcohol. With every spray or pump, I can feel my hair drying out from the excessive use of the myriad of alcohols used. And all that alcohol gives me a sneezing fit each and every time I use those other products. So what a treat to find that not only Gelebration Spray, but all of Jessicurl products are free from this offensive odor. My hair is definitely softer and not as dry as a result.

Gelebration Spray is what makes my hair curl. A few spritzes on my hair and when I blow dry with a diffuser and scrunch handfuls of hair - I get (gasp) actual CURLS. I about fell over the first time I used this. The only curls my head has seen were from the perms I used to get through the late 80's and into the mid 90's. This stuff is the bee's knees. And of course, it too smells great! And if I can obtain curls from using this product, it's a sure bet that most anyone else will be able to as well. But this product makes a great styling aid even if you're not going curly. Used in place of a heavier commercial gel, Gelebration Spray gives control to your style and makes for a great finished style.

Awe Inspiring Spray: This is sold as a mid-day pick-me-up for curls. Just a few spritzes to bring droopy curls back to life. That's what the product states - and that is what it does! I found that a few sprays around my just finished style and then a quick zip of the hair dryer and my curls stay curlier far longer than they do without. When I'm not going curly, my hair is round brushed so it curves up at the bottom. Using this Spray helps keep the bottom curled up all day. Amazing!

All told, I'm hooked. Compared to other "natural" hair care solutions on the market, Jessicurl products rock. The outstanding scent beats any other hair care product I've ever used and their use of natural and non-toxic ingredients make these products a smart choice. I recommend this line of hair care to anyone with hair - curly or not.

Jessicurl Curly Hair Care Products are available in multiple sizes from samples through gallons, priced from $1.50 for samples to $100 for full gallons.
