Smells wonderful. But unfortunately it is way to heavy for my fine hair. Also, I didn`t get the nice `locks` I wanted, more of a separated small locks that are kinda like a mess... Going back to the little Aveda pump bottle (Be Curly Style Prep), that works wonderful for my fine, kinda curly hair (don`t use the heavy Curl Enhancer), just the Style Prep. :-)
So I purchased this product yesterday and also used it yesterday and I'm kind of on the fence about this product. I applied it after detangling my 3c hair and my curls were so soft, shiny and defined. I used a styling gelee on top of it and put my hair in a pineapple, in a plastic cap and went to sleep. I woke up this morning and it just wasn't that great. The combonation definitely loosened my curls which I didn't care for. Now this could totally be the other product, but I'm just saying. My curl was loosed and I had some shrinkage as well of outward growing so I ended up putting my hair in a bun like usual. I do like this product as a leave in. It was definitely soft and shiny but it didn't do much for definition or hold. This is just the first time I used it though so maybe I just need to try it a few diferent ways first.

Oh the softness this gives my hair! And the shine! Amazing!! That being said I will also say that for my fine hair it can be a tricky product. It is SO moisturizing that it will give me stringy, thin, greasy looking curls very easily if I use even the tiniest bit too much. It is specified that it is for thick curly hair as opposed to the fine wavy/curly hair that I have though, so I don't hold that against the product. Amazing softness, great shine, moisture, help with frizz, help with definition, a fabulous coconut smell and wonderful natural ingredients. How can I not love all of that?!

This is a Great Moisturizing Leave In..Not a Styler..I first used the Milk as a Leave In before applying Curl Enhancing Smoothie as my styler..Second day, I noticed a lot of frizz and buildup, even a bit drying...Second time around, I Shampooed, Conditioned, applied virgin coconut oil as my leave in and styled my Twist out with the Curl Enhancing Smoothie..Next morning, after taking out twists, I used the Curl & Style Milk ON TOP of the smoothie this time, and It worked like a charm!..Refreshed the curls and kept my hair Moisturized ALL DAY...best way to use this product for me...Love the smell, the healthy ingredients, the frizz control this gives me, so will be purchasing again :) continued >>

This is the best leave-in product I've ever used on my hair. I have thick, wavy, kind of frizzy blonde hair. I only use natural products, but I've had horrible luck finding a natural leave-in for my hair. I found this in Sally's, in the ethnic hair section. It smells amazing, so I bought it. I washed my hair the next day, put this in, and let it air dry. My hair was perfectly smooth! I was so surprised. I will always buy this when I run out.
The scent is the only good thing about this product. It's very sweet--some might find it overpowering.
As far as a styling product goes, I'd skip this one. It doesn't do anything for adding definition or hold, nothing for frizz, and gives hair a weird kind of wet look. It also makes my curls separate into thinner, stringier curls that don't blend well together and create an overall messy, unkempt look. I really wanted to like this since it's CG friendly and not TOO expensive, but I'm going to try and return it.
I found the smell too cloyingly sweet. And the product always overwhelmed my hair. It was just too rich and made my hair look greasy and limp.

Such a great product for dry curls! The ingredients are great and it really gives good definition to my hair without sacrificing volume. Not to mention that it smells amazing. I use a nickel sized amount and work through the ends of my hair first, scrunch, then take a pea sized amount and work in the top of my head. This is very hydrating and when my hair dries, it feels soft and looks less dull. If you find the smoothie too much for your hair, give this a try.
I love this Milk and my boyfriend does too. We both have thick hair that needs a lot of moisture. For me I have curly hair but it's wavy now because it's so long. I use this when my hair is damp or dry and I put it in a braid. When I take it out omgoodness my hair smells and feels so good! My hair is soft not stiff or sticky. My curls stay so nice and no frizz. It gives my hair the moisture it needs to stay soft and just well behave and look nice. I love this Milk and recommend it for anyone with thick or curly hair. Fine hair could get greasy because there is nothing but moisture in this product. I love the shea butter,Neem Oil,and Coconut oil. Plus it's vegan which is what I look for in my hair products now a days because my hair seems to like them better.
All in all an excellent product I love it so to me it's worth the price. I will repurchase and have bought the spray so I have to see how I like that. But this is love the smell is really nice and natural I can't wait to use this product in the Summer it will be perfect at keeping my hair hydrated and smelling great. My boyfriend loves it because it just makes his hair soft and has mild hold which is what he needs. So this is a product for both men and women give it a try it works so well. Highly recommended!
