Products that enhance waves and curls?

I love Dream Curls too!! Actually, all of the John Frieda products are fabulous. I also love TreSemme Curl Care Mousse, it makes my curls really shiny and gives me a fabulous wet look. I love it.

The whole anti-silicone thing puzzles me. In her book about hair-care products, Paula Begoun says the stuff we've heard about silicone is urban hair myths, that it is harmless and makes your hair look great. She also points out that it is almost impossible to find any beauty product, including makeup, that doesn't have silicone -- it's what gives moisturizers and foundation that smooth feel, for instance. Also note that some of the biggest anti-silicone voices come from people selling their own curly-hair products, yet when I checked the labels on their products the chief ingredient was...you guessed it..."dimethicone" aka silicone!! Hypocritical much?

I have heard that Dream Curls can be drying--a shame because it works fabulously. But it wouldn't be the silicone that makes it drying, it must be some other ingredient.

I use Ojon hair products. They absorb into the hair to repair the cuticle which eliminates the frizz and makes the hair very soft. The products are expensive but worth it. You can purchase them at www.ojonhaircare.com. They also have kits in sample sizes.

i would love to know how to get curly hair. i definately dont want to perm it. I know i should just set it in rollers, right? well my hair is so long it goes to the middle of my back and i have no patience to set it myself. i thought about getting corn rows put in when my hair is wet then take it the braids out when my hair dries and it will make it all wavy but that can be very expencive. so you girls with naturaly curly hair, i envy you. Enjoy your curls!!

I think I've tried everything on this list and so far I really like the SAMMY mouse and curl gel. Also, the Garnier Fructis spray gel defines curls but doesn't leave them crunchy.

On the more pricer side the Matrix Curl spay gel and curling milk help with the frizz with my hair.

Also, if you blow dry your hair make sure you use a diffuser and put you blowdryer on high heat and low speed.

BIOGENOL Anti Stop Frizz. I think thats what its called it may not say anti in front of it. Its a little pinkish colored jar with silver cap. It works really well to keep curls together and prevent frizz. Also, I'm a huge fan of BIOSILK silk therapy. It works wonders for curly, frizzy hair. I have thick naturally curly, frizzy hair and using these products makes it so much smoother and healthy looking.
