@SwavyCurlyCourtney So I have a question as I’m just really getting good into my curly girl journey. I may know the answer to this but I’ll ask anyway. Can this clarifying shampoo be used every wash day? If not, what is a good shampoo to add in the mix with these products?
Out of all the wavy/curly hair channels, your hair seems to be the closest match to what my hair is like. Only, yours is much healthier & shinier. I'm working on making mine healthier. But, I'm on the road a lot for my job. It's hard to keep up a consistent routine. I thank you for the inspiration you give me. 😊 Been watching you for around three years. Keep these videos coming! Your hair looks fabulous!
The curling custard and knot today both have ingredients commonly used in pure herbal haircare, they contain a lot of mucilage which is where all that slip and definition comes from! Marshmallow root, slippery elm and Irish sea moss are all in a similar vein to flaxseed with all the hair-loving mucilage ❤
That custard is magic! I started using it about two months ago in the shower before dry plopping. The definition is insane! I didn't change the other parts of my routine at all.
I have to chime in again (2 months later). I LOVED the gel during transition but somewhere along the way it became too heavy for me (or I thought) BECAUSE of EXACTLY what you said - since my transitioning hair was extremely damaged I previously used a cream underneath and now that my damage is grown out I revisited it avoiding a leave in and HOLY SMOKES I have a newfound love for this gel! The ONLY downfall for me is that it does take just a little bit longer to dry compared to my normal gel (Curlsmith Aqua Gel). The extra 5 minutes diffusing paid off though and this product alone REALLY worked beautifully to define and ENHANCE my curls! The shine is INSANE! This is still my favorite product I have seen you use on your hair and now it’s a favorite of mine AGAIN! Even though it LOOKS like we gave very different hair the products you use that work for you somehow work very well for me too! You have very much become a major influence for me Courtney! Thank you so much for being our test subject and putting all the work in to make these videos! I am always super excited to see you pop up in my subscription list! ❤❤❤
I went out and bought the Leave in and the Gel. I have been transitioning for the past 7 months, after wearing my hair straight, bleaching and color stripping the heck out of my hair for 13 years. I have bought every Gel, Mousse, Foam and spray out there. Ugh and I just couldn't find the right combo. I thought this line was more for extremely coily hair, and since there's no protein in them I stayed away. For reference i have high porosity, fine, damaged, wavy/curly hair. OK so I washed my hair with The Twist shampoo, twice. Put a little bit of the leave in and stc a few times. Then rinsed it out completely. I used my tangle teazer and put a tiny tiny amount in my hand and imulsified it with a bit of water. Praying hands then scrunched and diffused. I did not get a cast, I hardly ever do but OMG super voluminous curls and some ringlets! My hair is super Shiney and feels so soft, it also dried in half the time. I will be playing around to see if I can get a slight cast but Wow! Thank you so much! ❤❤❤
I've been consedering adding the Curly Custard to my collection, but fighting myself with the amount of products I've been collecting. With that amazing result, I'm sold. Or better, I'm buying!
Me too! I am already getting a collection and feel like I should stick with what I have. But I am not getting much of a cast and not loving my results. Especially since they only last 5 1/2 seconds😂
Kinky Curly Custard was the first styler I bought a few years ago, when I first discovered that my hair was wavy. I used the whole tub, and then started playing with all the other options out there. Now I’m thinking it’s time to give it another go!
I definitely think this is the absolute BEST I've ever seen your hair! I'm going first thing tomorrow to get all these products you used this wash day. I hope and pray my hair turns out as good as yours did! Out of all the different people I've watched here on TH-cam your hair is the ONLY person's I've seen who's curl pattern looks like mine and I've watched a lot of people. I've always got the best advice from you too and that's why I'm only subscribed to your channel for my hair and nobody else. 😊❤
Wow these are the tightest ringlets I've seen on you! I've used this line before and the knot today was always too heavy for my fine hair. I'll have to try rinsing it out instead of leaving it in!
I decided to try the three kinky curly products since I have similar hair to yours and OMG! I had the best wash day ever!! Even my dad noticed and commented lol. Thanks for the great suggestion. Love you and your channel!
Courtney, 2 questions,1- do you think that the Kinking Curly shampoo should only be used as a clarifying shampoo and no an every wash day shampoo? 2- do you think that the kinky curly custard gave you such great results this time because you clarified? No matter what your hair does look amazing 😍!!
I've been using Kinky Curly products for awhile now, so it doesn't surprise me that this is your BEST one-product wash day! I find my hair looks even better on Day 2.
I love the Kinky curly come clean shampoo. I haven't used the custard in so long that I don't remember how I feel about it. When you were talking about the ingredients in the custard, it made me think of the Uncle Funky's daughter curly magic curl stimulator which contains many of the same ingredients. It would be interesting to see how that works on your hair
My hair LOVES uncle Funkys curly magic so I am always looking for other products that use similar ingredients. My hair seems to love anything with those ingredients (I have very thick, wavy hair on the dry side). I also haven’t used the curling custard in a very long time but I think I remember my hair liking it before so I’m about to try it again too.
Best wash day. I also have super fine, medium density hair. I cannot style my hair soaking wet. It comes out terrible. So damp styling is my go to, and with that, it's rare to not get a cast. Haven't used Kinky Curly products in a while but have always loved the leave-in and Custard. Need to try the shampoo now and use them all together. Thanks for the video.
Looks great! Could you plz show what you do after the wash? Thats the most important part. How you diffuse, for how long, do you partial air dry, etc? Thx
I just received this set and haven't tried it yet. I'm so happy you've done this review! Having problems with stringy curls and have tried a number of combinations. Can't wait to try these products. I have medium porosity, thick, medium to course hair, and wavy to curly hair. Your hair looks amazing. I've watched so many of your videos and this is one of the best.
I am so excited! I tried these products today. I washed twice and styled with flip, glaze, and scrunch. It looks fabulous. I suspected my hair had been over moisturized. This seems to have solved my problem. I'm over the moon and thrilled. Thank you!❤
I love using the Knot Today and Curling Custard and I always get a cast. Also I know the Knot Today says for fine hair to wash it out, but for some odd reason on my baby fine hair, leaving it in works really well.
I think these are the best results of yours that I've ever seen! I'd love to see you do the exact same thing, a second time, to see if it again garners the same result.
I discovered this at the beginning of my curly hair journey (definitely have not kept up with the method as religiously as some lol) and this is still my favorite! Closely followed by Curlsmith lol
I love that this line worked for you! The Knot Today is my go-to for every wash, and the Come Clean is my go-to clarifier. Unfortunately, my hair HATES aloe and makes it flash dry, but I so WANT to love it :(
So, after watching this video, I bought the clarifying shampoo and I can't believe my curls. I have curl families for the first time EVER. My hair is much shorter than yours, so it's really difficult for me to form curl families,. I only used the clarifying shampoo because I'm on a well with very hard water, and a rinse out conditioner from another brand, no gel, no styling product at all, and air dried ... and OMG! I have curl clumps in exactly the right size (I use a detangling, wide-tooth comb with two rows offset, likely by Goodie). I can't believe this shampoo made such a difference. Now, I'm going to have to get the conditioner and gel or whatever the last bit is. I may have found my perfect line thanks to you!
Amazing results!! My mind is blown that Kinky Curly is a drug store brand in the US! It it close to impossible to get anything more than the custard here and even that is so hard to come by it keeps selling out super quick.
FYI I discovered yesterday that Amazon Australia is selling KCCC now (Australian stock) at a lower price than the various Aussie online curly girl shops have to sell it for.
I have thick very high porosity hair. I’ve tried SO many products, and this routine worked on my very course sometimes kinky hair. I have curls and no frizz. No poof! I found my new product home.
Oh man, I have the exact same random strand of hair at the front that doesn’t get in a curl family! What’s up with that?? You definitely had great results with this brand, and I love your The Chosen shirt! 💜
These products work AWESOME for your hair!!! I never had much luck with the custard but now I am interested in trying it without anything underneath! On a very strong note I cannot express how much I LOVE this shampoo! I ALWAYS come back to it!
How important is it to do it all with your hair upside down? My hair gets all tangled when I put it back in place, unless I immediately diffuse it upside down. Thanks for all your tips! I’ve been doing this about 6 months and have really liked your inexpensive recommendations.
Fantastic results! I haven't used the conditioner or custard in ages, but that shampoo is my favorite clarifier. I _might_ have to pop into Walgreens today! 😂 Thanks for sharing. 🙏🏻
2/22- I just bought these products today so I haven't used them yet. As a horticulturist some of the ingredients you listed are ones that I have been looking for in a products for my hair which is thin and fine. Here is the reasons : Horsetail extract contains silicon and sicilic acid Nettle (stinging nettle) - is high in amino acids, protien and bone building minerals Slippery Elm and Marshmallow contain mucilage These herbs are in the Knot today (slippery elm and marshmallow) and the Curling Custard (horsetail, nettle and marshmallow). So if I am accurate in my thoughts the conditioner and custard are adding protein, sicilic acid and silicon then sealing the hair cuticle with a coating. There could be some potential issues with buildup and the diuretic properties of some these herbs. I will try to comment about how this works on my hair which is also high porosity, dry and prone to frizz. Thank you for sharing these products and how they work for you.
I think this is the best wash day... Can you show us your current wash day routine from start to finish? - and how long does it take you, start to finish?
I use both Knot Today and the Kinky Curly Custard. I didn’t know that I am supposed to rinse out the Knot Today. Kinky Curly definitely is a good product but I have learned that my curls won’t stay unless I keep my hands off of them or I use hairspray when my hair is fully dry.
I just received the conditioner and curl gel. I can't wait to try it tomorrow! My last wash, I used the shampoo and the followed up with a purple conditioning shampoo for my silver. We're on well water and our soil is mostly red clay, so it gets dull very fast. Didn't use anything else and diffused to 50% dry. This is the FIRST time since I started my curly journey 6 months ago (when I found out it had gone wavy/curly after growing out my very short pixie) that I have been able to go 3 days without any greasiness, even at my nape! I'm stunned. Usually, by day 2 it's gone greasy at my nape and by day 3, it's so bad I have to wear a baseball cap in public. But here I am, day 3, no grease, easily refreshed with a spritz of water, a little scrunch, and air drying. A little frizz because that's the nature of silver hair, and a little static because of the weather, but otherwise, it's totally public ready. I've lived in this house on this well for more than 20 years. I had NO idea how much chemical buildup from the well I had until I used this product. At least the shampoo is a game-changer! We'll see about the rest of the line tomorrow.
Wow, this might even be the best result from the entire one brand wash day series! ❤ I find the Cantu shine and define custard performs very similarly, so I would be really interested and excited to see a Cantu obwd 😁
Wowzah 😀 you’re waves look SO lovely. This is how I use both Kinky Curly Custard and Ecoslay Orange Marmalade…almost on their own. 1. I use the Honest Leave-In detangler spray, it looks like water, any creams or milk sprays…just make my hair feel producty 😜 2. I prefer the Ecoslay for larger sizes and greater $ value, but both products work similarly for me. 3. I apply the jiggly to each section, they both give great slip for brush styling 4. I diffuse and get a hard cast…I think the moisture in these products is enough for my med-coarse, very low porosity hair. The results last longer than I my scalp would like…if only I could was my scalp without washing this foot and a half of hair 😂 How about Ecoslay 1 Brand Wash Day next?! 😃 Cheers and keep up the great work, curl friend 💛
Thanks for doing this video, Courtney. I had the Kinky Curly Curling Custard. Purchased the shampoo and conditioner. Having finer hair like you, I did the same and rinsed out the conditioner. Had wonderful results. I've never quite gotten as much wavy curls with the Curling Custard before.
I have now heard you say multiple times that the Kinky Curly Come Clean shampoo is not that clarifying or stripping. I wonder what makes the difference between your hair and mine here, because I learned what "squeaky clean" meant when I used this shampoo. My hair literally squeaks!!!
I just can't seem to get as much definition using this product trio, it was pretty good day one, but I seem to need a harder hold than the custard. And day two everything is completely stretched. On the plus side, these products leave my hair SOOOOO SOFT and smooth :)
Your hair looks BEAUTIFUL!! And you look BEAUTIFUL!! I TRULY APPRECIATE you reviewing products!! I just can't justify experimenting as I have in the past with expenses of everything soo high... BLESS YOU Sweet Girl you are ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTFUL!! 🩷🙏
Your hair looks gorgeous. What happens with me is that I’ll have a gorgeous day like this and then the next time I use the same exact products I don’t get the same result. No idea why.
*WOW* . What I noticed the most was the shine and definition. My hair type is very similar to yours, I have less density because I'm getting close to 60. I have not gotten great results with sopping wet styling or gels that I have tried. This combo looks promising. Thank you Courtney!
@@SwavyCurlyCourtney *Update 2.19.2024* . Sally Beauty had Kinky-Curly on sale, buy 2 get 1 free. I purchased the trio. I had just washed my hair the previous evening and had little product in it so I soaked my hair, used the Knot Today, did a good Squish to Condish and rinsed out. I applied a wee bit of Knot Today on my ends before glazing with the Custard and pulsing. My hair is fine and low density, 2B-c on a good day. I diffused to 90% got a good cast and air dried for an hour. I scrunched with a t-shirt and fluffed. I have volume, I have shine, I have definition and some sweet corkscrews. My hair feels light and touch- ably soft. I never would have chosen this brand had I not watched your video. I can't wait to play around more with these products and try a bit of brush styling. If my hair continues to love the custard, I'll be purchasing 3 at the next sale.
I love Kinky Curly for my coarse hair. I use Come Clean often as it makes a big difference to keep it build up free. It’s been awhile since I’ve tried the Custard but the last time was when I was still using leave-in (as per your instructions 😂). I have read their website and I honestly think they should relabel the Knot Today as a multipurpose conditioner. Deep conditioning with heat also gives me brilliant results.
Oooooo these may be worth a try. Also I love the Chosen merch. 😉 I couldn't make it to see any of the in theater showings and am just dying for season 4 to hit streaming!
Love this so much. You didn’t mention it, but in addition to those glorious Swavy curl clumps, your hair is so shiny! I was just wishing for guidance on finding a good clarifying shampoo, and bam! Your video popped up in my feed. Thank you!😊
I literally did the same dance when i saw that this video was kinky curly again hehe! You’re adorable and i look forward to all of your videos! Thank you!
I swear by the Kinky curly custard! It makes my hair so shiny and gives great curl definition but it doesn’t provide lots of hold. I use a sea salt spray on top for extra hold. The custard is moisturizing but I always put a layer of leave-in conditioner before applying the gel because my hair is naturally on the dry side. I’m going to try to use it on its own and definitely look into their clarifying shampoo!
Your hair looks amazing. This was my beginning to the curly journey. I am so afraid to try the shampoo now that I am mature with coloured hair. I used to drive to the U.S. to buy these products at Target. I live in Canada. You are rockin this!
I love Kinky Curly Custard over Bounce Curl Rose Oil and Avocado Curl Cream for clumps and moisture. My hair is very fine and dry (color treated) so I need a leave in / cream with more ompth than Knot Today. When I tried Knot Today, I found it was just a watery detangler at best.
Wow your hair looks pretty defined and moisturized. I need to try that combo. Will you do a video on the new Garnier fructis filler preshampoo, shampoo, conditioner, serum, and cream gel? They have 3 different systems out one for damaged hair one for colored/bleached hair and one for curly hair.I was recommended the one for colored/bleached because my hair is highlighted with bleach and damaged. I like the smell of the products and they don't weigh my hair down. I will try this kinky curly brand after I finish the garner fructis system. I bought that hair products at Walgreens on sale $8.99 each bottle.
I’ve been afraid to try this because of the humidity where I live but now I want to try these all!! 😊beautiful!!! Maybe now you can try more moisture only products 😊
I have the same curl pattern as yours but coarser/thicker strands. I have tried these exact products today and I got a decent cast (even on sections where I left the conditioner in!) and the overall shape looks good so far (despite having to airdry because my toddler got panic everytime I turned hairdryer on 😅), we'll see how it turns out in the morning when I scrunch out the crunch 🤞🤞 though I must say I did get squeeky clean feeling and I struggled a lot with brush styling as it felt as if my sections were getting very tangly and I barely could get my brush through them, especially the top front section (I brush style the same way Gina Marie does in her videos). I wonder if I could have used too much gel and it could be the reason like not using deep conditioner?
Their leave in and custard werw my go to whm I started my curly journey year's ago. I need to bring them back. I mever tried the cleanser but now I want to nased on your beautiful results. ❤️
Going on now...I searched for kinky curly shampoo and found it was out of stock everywhere near me. However, Sally's now has buy 2 get 1 free on all Kinky Curly products. Get it while you can...I ordered mine! You're welcome!! Thanks Courtney!
My go-to products for these amazing results on my 2b, 2c, fine, high-density, high-porosity hair. I can't find anything that works as well on my hair. By the way...my picture is my hair blown out.
This is absolutely the best wash day you have ever gotten!!! WOW, WOW, WOW!!!!!!!!! Gorgeous curls!!!!!
Wow, thank you so much!
I absolutely agree. The best wash day ever. Keep this❤❤❤
@SwavyCurlyCourtney So I have a question as I’m just really getting good into my curly girl journey. I may know the answer to this but I’ll ask anyway. Can this clarifying shampoo be used every wash day? If not, what is a good shampoo to add in the mix with these products?
I agree!
Out of all the wavy/curly hair channels, your hair seems to be the closest match to what my hair is like. Only, yours is much healthier & shinier.
I'm working on making mine healthier. But, I'm on the road a lot for my job. It's hard to keep up a consistent routine. I thank you for the inspiration you give me. 😊
Been watching you for around three years. Keep these videos coming! Your hair looks fabulous!
Same here!
That is THE BEST one brand wash day in my opinion!! What a shiny, gorgeous mop of lusciousness😍
Awe wow! Thank you so much!!!

That custard is magic! I started using it about two months ago in the shower before dry plopping. The definition is insane! I didn't change the other parts of my routine at all.
Have you been combining it with other stylers?
Is it heavy at all? I have fine hair and everything weighs it down
Ohh how interesting! Love this! Thanks for sharing your results!
@@sinarojaI don’t find it heavy at all! I sometimes need a stronger gel with it if I’m feeling wild.
@@sinarojaI use it and I have super fine hair. I have to use like a dime size amount, but it is my favorite styler that lasts for days on me
I have to chime in again (2 months later). I LOVED the gel during transition but somewhere along the way it became too heavy for me (or I thought) BECAUSE of EXACTLY what you said - since my transitioning hair was extremely damaged I previously used a cream underneath and now that my damage is grown out I revisited it avoiding a leave in and HOLY SMOKES I have a newfound love for this gel!

I literally just tried this custard, for the first time, as a single styler 3 days ago, and have been loving my results.
I see a The Chosen shirt!!! I love it!!!
Beautiful! Maybe you used a bit more gel then usual without the measuring spoon?
Possibly!
I've been consedering adding the Curly Custard to my collection, but fighting myself with the amount of products I've been collecting.
With that amazing result, I'm sold. Or better, I'm buying!

I would LOVE something about how to protect curls in the swimming pool.❤
Same!
Wow wow wow Courtney! This is the curliest I've seen your hair! Looks beautiful!😍
Seriously! Thank you!
Looks great! Could you plz show what you do after the wash? Thats the most important part. How you diffuse, for how long, do you partial air dry, etc? Thx
Sure! This is what I do: th-cam.com/video/uXVnh33kB1g/w-d-xo.html

So, after watching this video, I bought the clarifying shampoo and I can't believe my curls. I have curl families for the first time EVER.

Now, I'm going to have to get the conditioner and gel or whatever the last bit is. I may have found my perfect line thanks to you!
Amazing results!! My mind is blown that Kinky Curly is a drug store brand in the US! It it close to impossible to get anything more than the custard here and even that is so hard to come by it keeps selling out super quick.
This line has been my holy grail for years! Love it!! Your hair came out amazing too!😊
OMG!!! This is the one!! Looks amazing! Makes me wanna run out and buy all of it haha 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣 Why not! lol
I bought everything! The custard really does add curl, but mine were a bit too crunchy. I’m watching again to see how much you used.
Gorgeous! ❤ can you share how you slept with it overnight (did you wrap it or anything)? Thank you!!
I use a silk pillowcase and put it up in a pineapple (basically a loose bun!)
This is by far the best hairday yet!!!! ❤❤
Awe, thank you so much!
I really appreciate how you show us what your results look like at the end of the day and the next morning too. It's so helpful. Thank you! 😊
Glad that part is helpful! Totally get why too!
I honestly did not expect this result!! ❤
I ordered this immediately after seeing your results! Your hair looks unbelievable and it held up really well
You mentioned willow bark. That's where salicylic acid comes from which is great for scalp! Beautiful results! 👏👏
Found an Australian business who sells these products, cant wait to see how it works in my hair 🤞🏼
FYI I discovered yesterday that Amazon Australia is selling KCCC now (Australian stock) at a lower price than the various Aussie online curly girl shops have to sell it for.
I have thick very high porosity hair. I’ve tried SO many products, and this routine worked on my very course sometimes kinky hair. I have curls and no frizz. No poof! I found my new product home.
Oh man, I have the exact same random strand of hair at the front that doesn’t get in a curl family! What’s up with that?? You definitely had great results with this brand, and I love your The Chosen shirt! 💜
I know! Right?! It doesn't want to play nice lol And thank you!!!
I used to be afraid of clarifying shampoos, but they have saved my hair. My curls have never looked better.
Totally get why you were afraid! But glad you tried it!
These products work AWESOME for your hair!!! I never had much luck with the custard but now I am interested in trying it without anything underneath! On a very strong note I cannot express how much I LOVE this shampoo! I ALWAYS come back to it!
Ok wow! Love this wash day results. I’m definitely going to put these on my list to try. So love this channel!
Awe thank you! Hope you love them too!
i love the kinky curly gel but haven’t been loving my waves lately so i can’t wait to try this trio
Hope this helps! I think it might!
How important is it to do it all with your hair upside down? My hair gets all tangled when I put it back in place, unless I immediately diffuse it upside down. Thanks for all your tips! I’ve been doing this about 6 months and have really liked your inexpensive recommendations.
Fantastic results! I haven't used the conditioner or custard in ages, but that shampoo is my favorite clarifier. I _might_ have to pop into Walgreens today! 😂 Thanks for sharing. 🙏🏻
2/22- I just bought these products today so I haven't used them yet. As a horticulturist some of the ingredients you listed are ones that I have been looking for in a products for my hair which is thin and fine. Here is the reasons :
Horsetail extract contains silicon and sicilic acid
Nettle (stinging nettle) - is high in amino acids, protien and bone building minerals
Slippery Elm and Marshmallow contain mucilage
These herbs are in the Knot today (slippery elm and marshmallow) and the Curling Custard (horsetail, nettle and marshmallow).
So if I am accurate in my thoughts the conditioner and custard are adding protein, sicilic acid and silicon then sealing the hair cuticle with a coating. There could be some potential issues with buildup and the diuretic properties of some these herbs. I will try to comment about how this works on my hair which is also high porosity, dry and prone to frizz. Thank you for sharing these products and how they work for you.
I think this is the best wash day...
Can you show us your current wash day routine from start to finish? - and how long does it take you, start to finish?
I use both Knot Today and the Kinky Curly Custard. I didn’t know that I am supposed to rinse out the Knot Today. Kinky Curly definitely is a good product but I have learned that my curls won’t stay unless I keep my hands off of them or I use hairspray when my hair is fully dry.
I just received the conditioner and curl gel. I can't wait to try it tomorrow!
My last wash, I used the shampoo and the followed up with a purple conditioning shampoo for my silver. We're on well water and our soil is mostly red clay, so it gets dull very fast. Didn't use anything else and diffused to 50% dry.
This is the FIRST time since I started my curly journey 6 months ago (when I found out it had gone wavy/curly after growing out my very short pixie) that I have been able to go 3 days without any greasiness, even at my nape! I'm stunned. Usually, by day 2 it's gone greasy at my nape and by day 3, it's so bad I have to wear a baseball cap in public.
But here I am, day 3, no grease, easily refreshed with a spritz of water, a little scrunch, and air drying. A little frizz because that's the nature of silver hair, and a little static because of the weather, but otherwise, it's totally public ready.
I've lived in this house on this well for more than 20 years. I had NO idea how much chemical buildup from the well I had until I used this product. At least the shampoo is a game-changer! We'll see about the rest of the line tomorrow.
Wow, this might even be the best result from the entire one brand wash day series! ❤ I find the Cantu shine and define custard performs very similarly, so I would be really interested and excited to see a Cantu obwd 😁
I'm sold! I just ordered this trio of Kinky-Curly products. Praying I have similar results as Courtney! 🙏
Awe I hope you love them too!
I love your curls. Going to find these products and use them tomorrow!!😮💕😁
Wowzah 😀 you’re waves look SO lovely. This is how I use both Kinky Curly Custard and Ecoslay Orange Marmalade…almost on their own.
1. I use the Honest Leave-In detangler spray, it looks like water, any creams or milk sprays…just make my hair feel producty 😜
2. I prefer the Ecoslay for larger sizes and greater $ value, but both products work similarly for me.
3. I apply the jiggly to each section, they both give great slip for brush styling
4. I diffuse and get a hard cast…I think the moisture in these products is enough for my med-coarse, very low porosity hair.
The results last longer than I my scalp would like…if only I could was my scalp without washing this foot and a half of hair 😂
How about Ecoslay 1 Brand Wash Day next?! 😃 Cheers and keep up the great work, curl friend 💛
Thanks for doing this video, Courtney. I had the Kinky Curly Curling Custard. Purchased the shampoo and conditioner. Having finer hair like you, I did the same and rinsed out the conditioner. Had wonderful results. I've never quite gotten as much wavy curls with the Curling Custard before.
Beautiful results! Kinda wanna try this routine rn but have already planned to blow out my hair after washing it tonight 😂
I have now heard you say multiple times that the Kinky Curly Come Clean shampoo is not that clarifying or stripping. I wonder what makes the difference between your hair and mine here, because I learned what "squeaky clean" meant when I used this shampoo. My hair literally squeaks!!!
I just can't seem to get as much definition using this product trio, it was pretty good day one, but I seem to need a harder hold than the custard. And day two everything is completely stretched. On the plus side, these products leave my hair SOOOOO SOFT and smooth :)
Your hair looks BEAUTIFUL!! And you look BEAUTIFUL!! I TRULY APPRECIATE you reviewing products!! I just can't justify experimenting as I have in the past with expenses of everything soo high... BLESS YOU Sweet Girl you are ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTFUL!! 🩷🙏
You are so kind! Thank you!
Your hair looks gorgeous. What happens with me is that I’ll have a gorgeous day like this and then the next time I use the same exact products I don’t get the same result. No idea why.
It looks so pretty!! I may be looking into some of the custard!
*WOW* . What I noticed the most was the shine and definition. My hair type is very similar to yours, I have less density because I'm getting close to 60. I have not gotten great results with sopping wet styling or gels that I have tried. This combo looks promising. Thank you Courtney!
I would give it a try! And thank you!
@@SwavyCurlyCourtney *Update 2.19.2024* . Sally Beauty had Kinky-Curly on sale, buy 2 get 1 free. I purchased the trio. I had just washed my hair the previous evening and had little product in it so I soaked my hair, used the Knot Today, did a good Squish to Condish and rinsed out. I applied a wee bit of Knot Today on my ends before glazing with the Custard and pulsing. My hair is fine and low density, 2B-c on a good day. I diffused to 90% got a good cast and air dried for an hour. I scrunched with a t-shirt and fluffed. I have volume, I have shine, I have definition and some sweet corkscrews. My hair feels light and touch- ably soft. I never would have chosen this brand had I not watched your video. I can't wait to play around more with these products and try a bit of brush styling. If my hair continues to love the custard, I'll be purchasing 3 at the next sale.
You sing great!!! TY for the song .I have autism and hate showers but now I'm going to make a jingle.
Looks so good! Shiny, bouncy and volume. Definitely makes me wanna try this brand
I love ❤️ Kinky Curly Knot Today!
I can totally see why! Me too!
definitely makes me want to try. Gorgeous
Awe, thank you!
Time for me to go shopping!!! Your hair is amazing!
Thank you!
Yes it beats Briogeo. I love it so much!
I love Kinky Curly for my coarse hair. I use Come Clean often as it makes a big difference to keep it build up free. It’s been awhile since I’ve tried the Custard but the last time was when I was still using leave-in (as per your instructions 😂). I have read their website and I honestly think they should relabel the Knot Today as a multipurpose conditioner. Deep conditioning with heat also gives me brilliant results.
Beautiful! My favorite!!!
I use the Kinky Curly custard so I’m glad you’re doing the shampoo. Beautiful hair 🤩
This hair washing challenge is genius . 🎉🎉🎉
Oooooo these may be worth a try.
Also I love the Chosen merch. 😉 I couldn't make it to see any of the in theater showings and am just dying for season 4 to hit streaming!
Love this so much. You didn’t mention it, but in addition to those glorious Swavy curl clumps, your hair is so shiny! I was just wishing for guidance on finding a good clarifying shampoo, and bam! Your video popped up in my feed. Thank you!😊
This is my favorite washday on you - your hair looks more curly than wavy! Just gorgeous! I may need to try these products. 😄🩷
Great instructions, i am still learning! Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Oooh! I want to try this.
I literally did the same dance when i saw that this video was kinky curly again hehe! You’re adorable and i look forward to all of your videos! Thank you!
LOL Thank you! Glad you were excited for this one! I was too!
I swear by the Kinky curly custard! It makes my hair so shiny and gives great curl definition but it doesn’t provide lots of hold. I use a sea salt spray on top for extra hold. The custard is moisturizing but I always put a layer of leave-in conditioner before applying the gel because my hair is naturally on the dry side. I’m going to try to use it on its own and definitely look into their clarifying shampoo!
Great idea on combining it with a sea salt spray!
Wow, that sure is lovely. Perhaps it beats Briagio. Now I have to find some place that sells it to try it. Thanks Courtney. 😀
Your hair looks amazing. This was my beginning to the curly journey. I am so afraid to try the shampoo now that I am mature with coloured hair. I used to drive to the U.S. to buy these products at Target. I live in Canada. You are rockin this!
I love Kinky Curly Custard over Bounce Curl Rose Oil and Avocado Curl Cream for clumps and moisture. My hair is very fine and dry (color treated) so I need a
leave in / cream with more ompth than Knot Today. When I tried Knot Today, I found it was just a watery detangler at best.
Wow your hair looks pretty defined and moisturized. I need to try that combo. Will you do a video on the new Garnier fructis filler preshampoo, shampoo, conditioner, serum, and cream gel? They have 3 different systems out one for damaged hair one for colored/bleached hair and one for curly hair.I was recommended the one for colored/bleached because my hair is highlighted with bleach and damaged. I like the smell of the products and they don't weigh my hair down. I will try this kinky curly brand after I finish the garner fructis system. I bought that hair products at Walgreens on sale $8.99 each bottle.
I’ve been afraid to try this because of the humidity where I live but now I want to try these all!! 😊beautiful!!! Maybe now you can try more moisture only products 😊
These products are my favorites.
If I buy others products, I always come back to them
Beautiful wash day!
I can totally see why!
Love this! I think this will be my next shampoo/ conditioner purchase. I want to try this and uncle funkys curl magic.
omg i’ve never bought something so fast
I have the same curl pattern as yours but coarser/thicker strands. I have tried these exact products today and I got a decent cast (even on sections where I left the conditioner in!) and the overall shape looks good so far (despite having to airdry because my toddler got panic everytime I turned hairdryer on 😅), we'll see how it turns out in the morning when I scrunch out the crunch 🤞🤞 though I must say I did get squeeky clean feeling and I struggled a lot with brush styling as it felt as if my sections were getting very tangly and I barely could get my brush through them, especially the top front section (I brush style the same way Gina Marie does in her videos). I wonder if I could have used too much gel and it could be the reason like not using deep conditioner?
Gorgeous Courtney!!
I see you had a Chosen T-Shirt, how gorgeous were the curls on the all of the male actors?!!??
Their leave in and custard werw my go to whm I started my curly journey year's ago. I need to bring them back. I mever tried the cleanser but now I want to nased on your beautiful results. ❤️
Wow!!! The results of this wash day are gorgeous, one of the best for sure!!!
Thank you so much!
Going on now...I searched for kinky curly shampoo and found it was out of stock everywhere near me. However, Sally's now has buy 2 get 1 free on all Kinky Curly products. Get it while you can...I ordered mine! You're welcome!! Thanks Courtney!
Such a good deal!
My go-to products for these amazing results on my 2b, 2c, fine, high-density, high-porosity hair. I can't find anything that works as well on my hair. By the way...my picture is my hair blown out.
Why is everyone so afraid of squeaky clean hair, hair conditioner works its best on squeaky clean hair.
Yesss your hair looks amazing! This might be your best wash day yet!! Now i want to see you try the mousse from this line!
