Olaplex and Curl smith bonding treatments are not the same. They aren't even comparable. So all the video's y'all are seeing side by side are just a waste of time. Both are great for the hair. But y'all can't keep getting confused when it comes to the make up of Olaplex and other bonding treatments. This isn't for you Simone, love. Just clearing up for others. Now I'm not about to sit here and write y'all a book. Just do y'all research please. Having both on your shelves would be just fine.
I think your review is spot on! I just started using Curlsmith after Shea Moisture and Mielle. To me these products need to be used together and I also don't like crunchy hold. My hair is 3c/4a so hold is important but love love love.. especially later on in the week and even after I work out. I just followed you and hope to see more great honest content.
So glad I came across your video. You are one of the few people that didn’t necessarily down the product but gave an alternative opinion. When I tried it I felt the same way but considering I’m low porosity as well it makes sense. We prob wouldn’t notice much difference unless we messed up our hair completely but I did notice some improvement. It’ll prob be noticeable after more uses. When comparing the price/size to Olaplex and the fact that this repairs 3 bonds instead of 1, I feel it’s definitely worth it. Great video/review. New subbie btw!!
The best review of curl smith I’ve seen so far! Thank you for your honesty and thorough review. I just started using curlsmith, a gift from my daughter ( I wouldn’t be able to afford it) but so far, I like the product. I tried it on my grand daughters hair and it did a good job. I think, as you said, that continued use will tell the whole story. I’m in for it.
Thank you for this well I depart honest review! I’ve been curious about the bonding salve but now I’m intrigued by the whole line. Also, you are _absolutely gorgeous!_ The highlights compliment you perfectly. 👸🏿✨🤩
So, first of all, thank you for your honesty. I started my natural hair journey about 3 yrs ago but I was constantly cutting and restarting because it always looked dry and husky. Anyway, I live in Guyana so hair products are limited, i buy on amazon and it is shipped to Guyana via Miami. Added to my ignorance about porosity and textures, it was difficult and I spend too much money on products already. I have tried numerous hair products but none i really liked. I have low porosity hair and wanted an honest review on curlsmith on low porosity hair. Since i am looking for one specific line to stick with, your video is truly appreciated
Annnd I’m so glad you talk about how you like your hair styled. I have had all these products for a while and they do do what they say, but I like weighed down hair, it’s not for me on a regular basis, but doesn’t mean it doesn’t work. And besides ppl not even using products right 👀 ppl forget, styling is a preference
I tried the protein cream after seeing your post the other week and LOVVVE it ! (for me 😅) My goal over the next few months is to get my hair healthier before I ship for basic training, I definitely can’t wait to get my hands on more items from their brands!
Your hair type is very niceee, as a black girl with 4c hair it’s very cool to see other black people with different hair types and texture to me, your hair seems to me like 4a and I honestly love our hair type ❤❤❤❤
I’m so glad you popped up in my feed. Watched this video as I am trying olaplex 3 for the first time on my recently highlighted and damaged hair. Hopefully olaplex will work. If not, I may try curlsmith too. I’m desperate to restore my hair. BUT let’s talk about your color. LOVE IT! Can you share the color? I am subscribing now so I could say, “I remember her when...” 😊. Now I will binge watch
This is the first video I've watched without skipping through it, your hair looked amazing after the rehab one I just bought it today and hope it helps my hair, I also got that shampoo and conditioner to try fingers crossed it works for my hair because they are definitely not cheap
Great review. It made me pre-order (it's not out till the 28th in the EU) the protein line. My hair loves protein but the many comparison to olaplex videos weren't the most useful for me.
Let me tell you, I have been using Olaplex#3 for about 2 years..,love it!!! I also love Aveda products. I purchased the Curlsmith products today, being very careful not to buy the line that had protein. Since you can really do some damage if you don’t know how to read your hair and know when protein is needs!
Hello, you are so beautiful I am late to subscribing but not new to these products I have all of them and they all work differently on my hair for different reasons as you also state, not to mention all of them have their benefits this was a great upload ✨✨✨
Which would you reach for if you had to choose between the Olaplex and the Curlsmith Bond Builder? BTW I am a new subscriber but I watched not because of a give a way but because your video is very informative.
Oh and I know a Fanola fiber fix bottle when I see one, lol. Fanola is my favorite color-treated hair or virgin hair salon brand of all time, period. When it comes to the shampoos, conditioners, and treatments it's everything, to me. Top two styling brands for me, my staples are Curl Smith moisture line, and the Living proof curl line. Anything else is not needed for me. You also stated you feel like your hair just isn't how it used to feel, try either Fanola Nutri-care spray leave-in mask or L'anza trauma leave-in treatment. L'anza is more so expensive.
I can actually say, I put this on my hair and it changed everything about my hair. I just love the Curl Smith bond rehab salve. It really saved my hair. I just loose a thimble size amount of hair on wash day.
I used this BOND protein treatment and the next day my wash n go was dry af. I had to re-wash, re-deep condition and used a hair milk, leave- in and softening hair oil and put my in twist. I couldn't believe how DRY my hair was even when I used a deep conditioner.
Hi, I'm a new subscriber and I have a big question that never gets answered. I'm a latina girl who has curly hair, and I am the only person in my family with curls. I don't have a lot of money for products so I was wondering if you think it would be OK if I used box braids as a protective style, I know that braids and cornrows were used in the past for people of color to protect their hair and I wouldn't want to culturally appropriate the hairstyle. I just don't know what to do anymore...
Hey girl! Thank you for asking and for wanting to make sure you are respectful. I don't personally care if you as a hispanic women gets box braids, however I do not speak for all black women. So while I wouldn't care, I can't say the same for the next black women. Its a complex issue, and a complex answer.. But I thank you for opening the conversation!
I’m not sure about this brand as I was surprised to find that some of their products contains sodium hydroxide in the ingredients, it’s the main ingredient used in hair relaxers that makes the hair straight as well it’s the main ingredient for drain cleaners or unclogging drains, I don’t know what else they use let’s not forget Deva curls disaster, do your research and don’t use products before checking the ingredients and that’s what I do as well there are certain products that contain ingredients which transfer to formaldehyde when you use them, mostly found in tresemme so watch out as this brand or others could do the same.. If you don’t believe me check Curls Smith wash & scrub detox pro-biotic shampoo ingredients and it’s not the only one, sodium hydroxide cause cancer, skin irritation and hair loss and more..
I’ve been using olaplaex Tried the Curl Smith Bond and it’s killing the olaplaex Where has the curl smith bond been all my curl journey Y’all………..I swear
Girl, you are talking about a 200.00 wash and go! IMO, we don't need all those layers upon layers... we need to properly keep our locks moisturized and I'm sorry, I do love these products, but seriously if you have the time, try the DYI flax seed gel. This simple inexpensive gel is better than any product for sale out there. I am a product junkie and I really am starting to think its a disorder, because I know this - YET, I still have to have ALL these products... go figure.
Hair is great, you’re super cute, personality is perfect, but I just can’t tolerate 20+ minute videos. I miss those days when TH-cam had a 10-minute limit.
Gotta say that there are a ton of products & steps being used. I neither have the money nor the time for all of that . Can’t the routine be simplified a bit
Hey! So its chemically damaged because of the bleaching that it took to get my highlights. So its damage that someone else can't see, but that I can feel. I have a video on it called "Try the Maximum Hydration Method", at least I think thats what its called lol
Finally!!! Someone who actually gave negatives about the product and not just "Yes, buy this it's great!" Love that! 😍
Idk what youtubers you be watching but tons of people do this😂
I’ve literally never have watched a hair review this thorough😳 Your quality content is definitely appreciated by me sis👌🏽💯

Not you having over double the amount of followers you have a year ago! Congrats girl! Great video.

Well I’m only 1 minute in and I’ve already liked, subscribed and hit the bell 😊👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks fot your thorough and honest review. I recently purchased Curlsmith products and look forward to using them.
I so agree with the subscriber regarding your honesty and details you give along with the foundation of your videos...aka your personality 🥰
Thank you for this well I depart honest review! I’ve been curious about the bonding salve but now I’m intrigued by the whole line. Also, you are _absolutely gorgeous!_ The highlights compliment you perfectly. 👸🏿✨🤩
This is why I love your channel I was so scared to buy this product because of the price and this gave me so much info about it ☺️
Good honest review without a lot of annoying corny fluff in the content.

I love how you are so honestly giving your opinion
First off, you are gorgeous!!!! Thanks for the review :)
I’ve always loved the honesty in your videos. You seem so real and genuine! I love it. 💓

I am new here and baaaaaaby I'm here to stay! Keep putting out quality content! Oh and your hair is BOMB!!!
I just discovered you yesterday, and I love your vibe, and your content. Oh and Iam watching you from Germany.💥
I used the bond salve. My hair felt rough afterwards. I also think I had some slight heat damage it did nothing for. Going back to olaplex
def liked the way you did it by inserting the clips for a visual as you're talking. 🥰
Thank you babes 💕

Took their quiz on the website and omg it was great. They gave me details about my hair I've been trying to figure out.
it’s true, the quality of your videos are comparable to TH-camrs with 1M +
New sub here thank you for the review. I’ve been thinking about trying these products. You are absolutely gorgeous and I love your hair.
girl i loooove the way you did the vid
Tried the Curl Smith Bond on my damaged curls and I saw immediate change in my curls….
I’m so happy
I swear by it ….
Whew child
Thanks a lot for giving a full on review instead of the classic °this product burned down my house/i cannot live without it°!
😂😂😂

Beautiful hair do u recommend trimming my hair straight or curly?
Thanks for sharing! I hope you and your family are doing well and are staying safe. 😌
I love your hair!! I actually just bought a bunch more curlsmith products. N I have the bond salve. I will be using on a regular.

I did used the bond curl yesterday and I feel the same. I would have to use it again. It’s not gonna give you the quick fix, like everybody claims.
that's a lot of product 😶 ETA: I'm with you on not using super heavy products. I have low porosity hair and water-based everything works well
This was very helpful, your thorough review was on point
Your hair is so beautiful! I love the rehab salve so much ☺️
Thank you mama!! 😊
Thank you for this thorough review.
Your hair is absolutely beautiful!!! And so are you !!
Loved the content, very informative. Thank you 🙏🏽 for being honest 😊
*the oil in cream leave-in has the same first 6 ingredients as Creme of Nature Pure Honey Twist Cream!*
Hi! Make a Olaplex video! Love this review.
I can actually say, I put this on my hair and it changed everything about my hair. I just love the Curl Smith bond rehab salve. It really saved my hair. I just loose a thimble size amount of hair on wash day.
Please make sure your hair is completely clean... when doing the porosity test clean hair absolutely nothing on it thanks...
Love your channel 🤗🥰💯
I love your content and I love watching you, keep doing you❤️❤️
I used this BOND protein treatment and the next day my wash n go was dry af. I had to re-wash, re-deep condition and used a hair milk, leave- in and softening hair oil and put my in twist. I couldn't believe how DRY my hair was even when I used a deep conditioner.
I’ve never heard of this brand, but I’m definitely interested after your experience!
Can you use these while wearing protective styles like braids
New subscriber 🙌🏾🌺
Your hair is beautiful 🤩
Love your hair color!!! What is the name of your hair color? If you do not mind!😂
Love the content 👌 you really did your thing.
Great review!
Love your whole vibe !

Please give me the details on the brown hair. I need this color
Love your hair
I tried the bond salve and my hair was so soft when I rinse it out.

I’ve been using olaplaex
Tried the Curl Smith Bond and it’s killing the olaplaex
Where has the curl smith bond been all my curl journey
Y’all………..I swear
Love your honesty ❤️
U soooooo beautiful 😍

What’s your hair type ?
Gotta say that there are a ton of products & steps being used. I neither have the money nor the time for all of that . Can’t the routine be simplified a bit
I just been wondering im a new subscriber in you say your hair is damage i don't see it do you say that because you have color it looks health
Hey! So its chemically damaged because of the bleaching that it took to get my highlights. So its damage that someone else can't see, but that I can feel. I have a video on it called "Try the Maximum Hydration Method", at least I think thats what its called lol
So i know im asking to many questions but if u would have dye your without bleach do u think your hair would have been more healthier
No its okay! And yes, I think it was the bleach that messed me up lol
Please review olaplex
had to write it. The word "salve" is not pronounced , "solve", it is pronounced , "Sa ( sa ahh ) Va ( Vaa)", sorta like ," savy . :)
The scrilla, the duckets
girl you don’t have low porosity hair lmao! you have medium to high porosity
😘
