*UPDATE* Goooood morning y’all! So let me just make some things a little more clear. 1). This isn’t the only time I’ve tried custards. I actually have some on my channel as well as off camera over the years. So trust me when I say, this time just solidified my dislike for custards. 2). I ADORE THE LEAVE IN. It used to be a staple of mine but it didn’t last for the price. Using them together would HAVE NOT helped. Again, this isn’t the first time I’ve used a custard. Thank you all for watching on this here Saturday morning! I appreciate you all dearly!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Kinky Curly's custard is so hard to get off. And custards are very concentrated. They can't be applied like normal product. Especially with your hair you would need to use tones of water and much less product, and to emuslify it and apply a THIN layer.
@@thecure3982 Why can't you apply custards like normal product? I'm heavy handed with applying products. And if you apply a lot of it. Won't this just give your hair more moisture/ hydration?
@@thelovedoneinternational3213 Not necessarily. Some people use distilled water to dilute that custard. water leaves hair in 2-7 days because it is smaller that the styling product and evaporates. this is why some people do not like using water based products at all but product build up is not going to provide more moisture.
One jar can last for like 5-8 wash n Go’s. You need to have soaking wet hair and emulsify (warm product in your hands) before applying to the hair. Also tons of water and using the paired leave in under is what makes it work. I have super kinky type 4 hair and get solid wash and gos better than Eco styler
I just accepted the fact that my hair does not like aloe based gels. I've tried kinky Kurly, Camille Rose, Uncle Funky, keraveda, and Soultanicals frozen dip and drip. I'm not wasting another dollar. My hair likes wetline and Eco.
My hair likes aloe but my hair looks like a curly afro when it's done. It doesn't clump together either. Maybe I should say, I don't like the look, feel or the combination of the ingredients in most of those gels.
I have the same hair texture- a little thicker than yours, and this custard tames my curls wonderfully. I don’t diffuse though- simply allow my hair to air dry. However, we have to use what we prefer for our hair. For example, I don’t like gels, but love custards; some prefer gels over custards. Loved the video. Thanks for sharing.
You HAVE to do it on soak and wet hair. So basically in the shower for maximum results. It took me two years to come back to it and LOVE it. It’s my go to. For heavy handed ppl, a LITTLE goes a LONNNNG way. I use to use too much. Just a dime size on each section should do. Trust me! This brand is a og for a reason. ❤️❤️❤️
I use their shampoo, conditioner and Custard. Those three products go a long way. I don't use heavy swabs of the Custard because it's really thick. But also, some hair textures just don't take to it.
Hey Love, my hair texture is the same as yours. The frizz was a result of you diffusing and stretching your hair with the blow dryer. If you allow your hair to air dry it eliminates all frizz. It’s the best curling custard I’ve ever used that tames all frizz and retain curl definition for days on in. The sad thing is - the price just went up at Target to $18.49 in January of 2021. That’s ridiculous!!!
You have to use it on soaking wet hair and you used entirely too much. The product is VERY concentrated and needs to mix with water to fully disperse within the strands. Soaking wet hair is an understatement. For the best results, I do bigger sections (4) so my hair can hold more water, I put each section right under the shower head so my hair is drenching wet, and the second I move my head, I apply it. It instantly freezes my hair. Then I add a leave in on top for moisture. I'm a gel girl, and I have tried too many custards and hated them all. KCCC is the only custard that works for me
I used very little. I’ve tried the shower method before with other custards, I’ve tried it all, trust me. So this just solidified that custards don’t work for me. It’s too much work when gels just getterdone lol.
interesting you use your leave-in on top of the custard. Do you do that with any gel/custard? I like the idea. And do you use the "regular" amount of leave-in?
I’m confused now. Are u supposed to put the leave in on last? I had amazing results with this product. The best ever wash n go since my journey. I got major flakes though. Didn’t know where I went wrong because I used very little of the custard and I used the KC leave in with it. The flakes was to much though. I want to give it another try.
@@solopenny I'm super late to responding, but here goes. If I'm using a moisturizing gel or custard (aka most stylers on the market), I apply my gel first because my fine strands need structure to get my curl pattern going. And then based on how moisturized my hair feels/looks, I'll add a small to medium amount of leave in on top. I started doing it after loving the deva curl b leave in (even though I hated everything else from them). It's essentially a styling gel that primes your hair for product. I tried the technique again with my DIY flaxseed gel and got even better results (flaxseed gel w/ any leave in on top). Leave ins underneath gels causes gels to have a softer grip on the hair. If I apply my gel first, I get all the hold that gel has to offer and I can add leave in on top if I need it.
I absolutely love Kinky Curly... Years ago when I tried it on my long hair, I wasn't a fan. But now that my hair is cut short, these products have become my favorite.
I feel you, girl. Custards, creams, and jellies are a NO for my wash and gos, it just doesn’t give the same definition as my Eco. I can finesse the Kinky Curly into a really defined look with lots of product and small sections, but it doesn’t last as long as gel and it’s not worth it to me for the amount of money they’re charging. Now I use it to smooth my hair down for updos and flat twists, and so far it works great for that.
It really is different strokes for different folks. my hair LOVES custards and hates gels. this is one of my holy grails though it recently got replaced with Uncle Funky's Daughters Curl stimulator
I agree. My hair is the same. I have tried every gel but my hair doesn't respond well ☹😞. I'm very envious of the millions of wash n gos' on here with eco... On the other hand give me a custard and my hair is loving it. I tried the wetline thinking it would be different, but the same results so I think I now know for sure to stick with the custards.
My hair alsoo really hates gels ive tried soo muchh but my hair breaks out and stuff so now im just figuring out what I can use and I think I'm going to try that one kinky curly custard?
With this product you have 2 use it with their leave in conditioner. I love this product. My wash and go last for 2wks and I dont get the frizz. Also a little goes a long way. BTW U can purchase it from target website for $14 vs $16.99
I only watch UA-camrs with type 4 hair like myself but you are by far my favorite person to watch! You’re so beautiful & funny 😍😂! I can watch you all day.
vibes yes the flakes. I was so hyped. Used the leave in with it. My hair was so moisturized though. It looked amazing as well but those flakes. I’m still trying to figure out where I went wrong.
Let me just say. It is ALL because of you that I now wear wash n gos. I have been natural since 2007 and thought my hair just couldn’t wash n go. You changed my mind and it is the best thing ever so THANK YOU! #Amond
When I went natural 15 years ago, the custard jar was 2x bigger 🤷🏽♀️ at the same price and wasn’t in stores. Your hair still looks amazing! I wonder if a diffuser would have cut the frizz?
Curl friend, please give this product another shot. For starters when you got that gunk on your hands as you combed through your hair, I knew instantly that you used entirely too much product. When I first started using it, I had the same problem. My hair ended up feeling sticky and gunky. So I did some research found out that this custard requires soaking wet hair to fully dilute and do its job. Secondly, I realized that I too used way too much product. There was a bit of a learning curve to this custard but once I figured out the right product to hair ratio, it worked wonders for my hair. I part my hair into 4 sections and use between a nickel and a quarter size of product depending on the length of my hair. Then I use the Denman brush to evenly distribute the product and diffuse dry. Now it’s become my go to gel/custard. I get great shine, soft hold, no frizz, and days of use out of it. It doesn’t define my curls on its own, so I have to use a styling cream with it. But now my hair looks great and doesn’t feel sticky or weighed down. I say give it another shot. Maybe film with half your hair using a styling cream then custard, and the other half with the custard only. Just remember: soaking wet hair and way less product.
It looked pretty to me! But I will say, when I was using it I got the best results when using it with the Knot today underneath. It calmed the frizz down. And I styled on wet hair. The definition was soooo bomb.
GUYURL. I am the same way. I be WANTING to like custards SO BAD. I have ONE that works for me, MOST of the time. But like you... my hair just prefers gel! I will say I'm the opposite though, my hair has to be more damp than soaking wet when using a custard because otherwise I feel like the custard doesn't really GRIP my hair, if you know what I mean.
I love the custard, but this does not provide enough hold or protection from frizz. I paired with with the LA Looks blue gel and it worked well. but I honestly prefer the flaxseed gel I make myself.
This is beautiful job does this it gets hard after it dried ? Or flakey I love it on your beautiful hair I have short hair! The price is expensive but I like it on your hair!
Same. She never really explained what she expected. Just a lot of unfinished sentences and huffing and puffing. I was waiting for her to say what she wanted.
@@jjones7716she said it didn’t give her definition and made her way way too frizzy. Custards do the same on my hair. I need a good strong hair gel that will clump my curls together. I’ve used up the rest of my custard for twist outs. I like them for that.
I love all the comments on how to apply it: Apply to soaking wet hair. Apply quarter sized amount to 1/2” thick sections. Must be exactly 1/2” Spray hair after applying to each section with holy water. Inversion method for 23 minutes to reach appropriate drying. Eat a lemon. Done.
Do you think using the kinky curly knot today leave in under it would make any difference? The videos I've seen where the girls swear by it, they used them together
Bettina Gibson it might work well on your hair though. Try it first. I’m not a fan of it because it makes my hair too defined but I love Uncle Funky Curly Magic that’s a staple. However I know many people who LOVE Kinky Curly, especially if they have tighter curls.
@@Godsgraceish Thank you! True I'll have to see. I been reading all the comments about using them together and on soaking wet hair! Fingers crossed! Lol
Rayna's thanks for the video! I am surprised you didn't really like it. I think if you would have used a leave in knot today or another although KKCC is real picky it does not pair with everything that is for sure. It's my grail! Works best in summer for me since I am in NYC
My hair loves the KCCC. My favorite hair product. I can have a 2 week wash n go with that product. No other product does that for me. I would try other stuff because it’s so high, but nothing compares. I have been using it for 10 years so I have mastered using it. You hair still looks good to me, even with all your sticky fingers.😩😂
MzSCT wash day is a breeze. And I have Kinky hair, but because this product has my hair moisturized and soft it’s not a tangled bush😂😂 I can’t do that with other gels. I love the Wetline gel too, but at the end of the week my scalp and hair is dry .
I love this product. The difference I see from how we both use this is, finger comb each section with knot today first then follow with the kinky curling custard. Then I dry it under a hooded dryer. I feel to air dry it you’d need shorter and less volume hair. Then you don’t touch it until it’s dry. Don’t dry with a handheld hair dryer as you’re constantly touching it causing it to frizz before it drys. Also under a drying hood no product is left. Maybe a slight change with help the end look. I wear my hair like this until my was day defined curls for 2 weeks. Not it does say don’t touch or it will frizz. It’s. Product that you have to use from start to end as directed. Your hair is fabulous and I feel for you not achieving your deserved look.
I don’t do particularly well with custards, jellies or gelees either. My hair is like a 4a/b and so is my daughter’s. Gel is the move for us. I’m so glad that you introduced us to wetline xtreme because it’s amazing!! Before that I was still swearing by eco, Camille Rose curl maker, Aunt Jackie’s and Curly Chic Gel. Wetline, Eco, Aunt Jackie’s and Curly Chic are very economically friendly. Since you’ve already tried the others you might definitely want to try Curly Chic. I think you’ll like it. I’ve used their leave in also and I love it 🥰
First of all, YOU CRACK ME UP! Secondly, your hair is beautiful. WELCOME TO MY LIFE with pretty much ALL of the products I use with ANY gel of ANY kind.
So what do you do when you have a bad wash and go? Do you immediately rewash on the second day? Like Deva gels, there seems to be a learning curve for Kinky Curly too. I do remember Kinky Curly working for my daughter’s hair -she loves to wear a frizzy fro - but for me doing her hair it was too much hassle and the learning curve too steep. I never ever use it. Like you I can make frizz on my own!
I truly get it. I used it years back it was fine but my texture has changed from almost ten yrs ago and it just sits on my hair nothing else. I use knot today for my daughter. I get better definition from eco and fantasia
Funny that you're doing a video on KK. I just went back to KK and guess what? I love it...again. I stopped using it before because it was so expensive. I love the shine and the hold and the amount of body I have. I have fine hair so not having to constantly put product in my hair is important. Thanks love! Keep doing what you do.
I think your hair looks AMAZING!!! 😍😍 My hair loves this gel and gellies, but I am ready to try something new and tired of paying $17 for 8oz or $30 for the 16oz jar.
Gurl I've tried the Kinky Curly product and it made my curls extremely tight and stiff. In fact it was one of the first products I discovered when I first became a Natural. The price is ridiculous for a small jar and its just not great to me period... Smh!! I'd rather use Mielle Organic curling custard for 12.99 and her stuff is bomb sis😂😍
This custard did the same thing to m sister's hair. I like the curling jelly from As I Am or the shea moisture curl enhancing smoothie does really well for me as a wash n go or twist out cream.
I thought I was the only one. I thought my 4c hair was supposed to like Butters but kccc works for me and lasts. I just need to stop being so heavy handed
I love Kinky Kurly custard. It can be tricky though. The instructions say not to use a leave in or use very little of their leave in. I find it works better with the Shea Moisture Jamaican Black leave in. It does wonders for me BUT, I have high porosity (always needing moisture), low density, kinkier hair type. I also still have a twa which requires less product. It is great for keeping moisture but my hair shrinks a lot with it and if I am not careful, I will get more strand knots. I have used with Eco styler gel before and they worked well together.
Ranya!🤗 I have tried it with other leave in , hair milk, Shea moisturize smoothie and by itself with a little light oil. My hair still come out sticky, very hard and very very Frizzy 🤔. I have high porosity hair and my hair love Aloe Gels but not this!! Watching you my gels are Aussie🎉 Wetline 🎊and Eco🎉 PERFECT EVERYTIME! .
Hey girl! So I finally bought the wetline gel and everything that works for your hair typically works for mine ur my hair twin my hair was very defined but had NO volume can u plz make a video of u doing a wash and go and how you fluff it out for volume
As a former KC user, I think most of the frizziness is a result of the teasing you did before it dried. Mine worked well when I left it alone after raking it though. I also used Knot Today b4 applying. Your hair is beautiful and thanks for the tutorial/review!
The problems I have with this gel is that if your hair isn't soaking wet it will feel sticky and it will flake. Also, it doesn't pair well with the majority of the products on the market. Then it comes in a jar which makes it hard to get consistent results every time. It's not worth the trouble or price.
I used this product on my hair and I realized the product never dries and it stay sticky and wet. I did everything to make it work. I'm going back to gels
I've tried that one several times, and what I learned is a little goes a long way. You got those little white balls from where you put too much on. I hope this helps, but your hair looked beautiful after it dried.
Tried it before... on soaking wet hair, damp hair half way dried. Hated it! I cannot do soaking wet wash and go or my hair will be wet for 40 days and night. It was a sticky mess, little or no definition. I love the leave in!
This is the only custard that worked on my hair. I did use knot today with it. I know you said that wouldn’t have made a difference for your hair. I’m sorry you didn’t get the best results 😔. Your hair is still beautiful! ❤️Maybe trying it under a gel may work for you. Kimberly Cherell here on UA-cam got great results using it with the blue wetline gel.
Well....I tried this gel. First of all....(lip smack) these products are high as a giraffe’s 🍑 so you know I was sizzling when I banded my wash n go for the night & woke up to a dis as tuh!!! All my hard work-soaking my hair with water-air drying for a week! 👏🏾Gone 👏🏾down 👏🏾the 👏🏾drain! 💔 thanks for the video!! ❤️
I understand your frustration...I actually love it with the leave in but I can’t put too much. One this I noticed is that I have to air dry and let it fluff out on its own but the definition and moisture is out of this world!!
I use Kinky Kurly and I love it. Your hair is thick and I think it may be your application process. I feel it performs better when you apply it to smaller section and shingle if needed. I rake I through my hair. I feel it is very versatile. I’ve used it in combination with Uncle Funny’s Daughter Curly Magic, or Curls Blueberry Bliss Gel, or even Wetline Extreme. I say try again on after hair and smaller sections. I easily get 5-7 day hair.
Hmm, could be, but I did in small sections and, I’ve been trying custards for years and it’s never worked on my hair. I’ve tried shingling, I’ve tried it all and i never ever get good results...
I have a challenge for you... I’ve been using the Uncle Funky’s Daughter with Kinky Kurly as a topper but not too much Kinky Kurly. I do this because Uncle Funky’s will not give me the frizz free hold I like. I also put a little Wetline as a topper. I get a good two weeks. I do the bagging method at night to keep moisture and my hair has done well. People ask why I mix gels. One, it saves on product and money. Two, I get better holds.
So glad you posted this!!! I was getting ready to buy it. You have to try Obia Naturals Curl Enhancing Custard. Love how it weighs my hair down like the Wetline Extreme! Your hair still looks bomb though!!!!
First time trying it was when I got my hair done at the salon in Canada. My hair was dripping wet in the sink when she applied and a little went a long way. When I did it at home, I tried it dripping wet from the shower and it was successful. I got bad results any other time I used it. I also emptied a little of it in another jar and added water, it multiplied and I didn't have to wet my hair so much. BUT with all that said, you have to do what's for you chall. But I absolutely HATE wasting product so I try to find the best way to use it unless it's absolute trash!
Hey, girl! Have you tried the products from dollar tree? The Shea Solutions line has a moisturizing shampoo, deep conditioner, and curl stretch creme. Did I mention there is a gel called Super Look by Wet Line? All of these products are just one dollar each and you get a good amount for the price! Just a video suggestion for the new year.
Try it wetline! They work well together. I’m a gel lover and this custard was alright but not what I was use to . So I paired it wetline and came out beautiful
😀 my all time favorite product!!! I was a product junkie until I finally tried kinky curly... nvr looked back. In fact, happy to announce I've perfected just using 2 products.. the leave in & the custard. I pretty much only wear WnG. I love your hair, tfs!!!! PS pricing is high, but worth it 😁 as you see, I could go on & on & on 😛😄😄😄 💜💛💜💖
On a positive note. Rayna? Can we get deets on the lips ? I'm looking for a color just like that. AMAND 🙌🏾 SIDENOTE. this must be a sign I've had this KCC in my cabinet just sitting there.....
Loved the truth in your video. I’m not a fan of custards because they make my hair feel sticky, and I have a ton of flakes. I prefer more gels that’s not as thick and slimy. Great video though boo! Hair still gorgeous but I understand when you like your hair a certain way.
I have never tried it but it reminds me of Shea Moisture's gel and that is sticky as ever. Had to wash my hair all over. That fullness thereof though 🙌🏾🙌🏾😍😍 You still pulling it off.
Thanks for the honest review! You help me validate that custards do not ❌🛑 work for my hair either, just a waste unless I go for 16 hour hairstyle 😆 Happy 2019!
*UPDATE* Goooood morning y’all! So let me just make some things a little more clear.
1). This isn’t the only time I’ve tried custards. I actually have some on my channel as well as off camera over the years. So trust me when I say, this time just solidified my dislike for custards.
2). I ADORE THE LEAVE IN. It used to be a staple of mine but it didn’t last for the price. Using them together would HAVE NOT helped.
Again, this isn’t the first time I’ve used a custard. Thank you all for watching on this here Saturday morning! I appreciate you all dearly!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Ah yea no. I stay away from custards and light gels. Keep up the good work. I enjoy watching!
I love their leave in😊 BUT HATE the custard😩 it never works for me and I’ve tried it sooo many times! I thought it was just me.

Yuuppppp for real! I have been waiting for a sale but apparently they never have one that I can find.
Imagine how I felt when I FINALLY bought a jar of it, and someone STOLE it!
I didn't even have it a full week.....$13 down the drain!
I've splurged a couple times and you arent supposed to be heavy handed with it. Mine always lasted a long time

This only works on my hair when it’s SOAKING wet, and it works like no other! I love it!
Yea man, see...I’m just sticking to what works and that’s gels for me. I dont have to do all of that extra work lol
I thought it still came out really pretty.
Aww well thank you ma’am!
Me too. Maybe it’s because she did the instructions for tighter curls. She has looser curl pattern ... which mine was like that 🙃

With this product you have 2 use it with their leave in conditioner. I love this product. My wash and go last for 2wks and I dont get the frizz. Also a little goes a long way. BTW U can purchase it from target website for $14 vs $16.99
I only watch UA-camrs with type 4 hair like myself but you are by far my favorite person to watch! You’re so beautiful & funny 😍😂! I can watch you all day.
It's overrated. After it dried it dries my hair and there's a bad crunch with flaking
Didn’t experience crunching but it is overrated!
vibes yes the flakes. I was so hyped. Used the leave in with it. My hair was so moisturized though. It looked amazing as well but those flakes. I’m still trying to figure out where I went wrong.
You're probably too heavy handed with it. It's supposed to be a light hold
Your hair always looks good to me. 🤷🏽♀️
$16.99 😩😩
Chile, Satan is a lie
For me personally, the cheap products work better. If I’m paying more than 10 dollars, then the blood of Jesus must be in that product 😂😂😂
$10 on eBay!!! Only place I purchase it.
39$ in my country
Let me just say.
It is ALL because of you that I now wear wash n gos. I have been natural since 2007 and thought my hair just couldn’t wash n go. You changed my mind and it is the best thing ever so THANK YOU! #Amond
Are you kidding me... that looks great on you.. don't knock the product it made your hair look fabulous 👍
Honestly custards take flaking and frizz to another level for my hair.
😩😩😩😩
@@happycurlhappygirl lmao thats exactly how I looked when I saw my hair
When I went natural 15 years ago, the custard jar was 2x bigger 🤷🏽♀️ at the same price and wasn’t in stores. Your hair still looks amazing! I wonder if a diffuser would have cut the frizz?
Curl friend, please give this product another shot. For starters when you got that gunk on your hands as you combed through your hair, I knew instantly that you used entirely too much product. When I first started using it, I had the same problem. My hair ended up feeling sticky and gunky. So I did some research found out that this custard requires soaking wet hair to fully dilute and do its job. Secondly, I realized that I too used way too much product. There was a bit of a learning curve to this custard but once I figured out the right product to hair ratio, it worked wonders for my hair. I part my hair into 4 sections and use between a nickel and a quarter size of product depending on the length of my hair. Then I use the Denman brush to evenly distribute the product and diffuse dry.
Now it’s become my go to gel/custard. I get great shine, soft hold, no frizz, and days of use out of it. It doesn’t define my curls on its own, so I have to use a styling cream with it. But now my hair looks great and doesn’t feel sticky or weighed down.
I say give it another shot. Maybe film with half your hair using a styling cream then custard, and the other half with the custard only. Just remember: soaking wet hair and way less product.
I’m a slave to the kinky curly knot today n custard!! Tried another brands looked for cheaper. BUT always come back to it!! Love it!!
It looked pretty to me! But I will say, when I was using it I got the best results when using it with the Knot today underneath. It calmed the frizz down. And I styled on wet hair. The definition was soooo bomb.
Girl, your hair looks great either way!
Well thank you!
GUYURL. I am the same way. I be WANTING to like custards SO BAD. I have ONE that works for me, MOST of the time. But like you... my hair just prefers gel! I will say I'm the opposite though, my hair has to be more damp than soaking wet when using a custard because otherwise I feel like the custard doesn't really GRIP my hair, if you know what I mean.
I adore kinky kurly. It's my holy grail. Now eco, my hair hates it and the horse it rode in on.
Oh no 😩😩😂😂😂
😭😭 Same! It just flakes like no other in my hair and is to heavy for it. But Kinky was just the right touch for my fine strands 😁🙏
I love the custard, but this does not provide enough hold or protection from frizz. I paired with with the LA Looks blue gel and it worked well. but I honestly prefer the flaxseed gel I make myself.
This is beautiful job does this it gets hard after it dried ? Or flakey I love it on your beautiful hair I have short hair! The price is expensive but I like it on your hair!
Girl your hair is gorgeous❤️
I’m confused on how you wanted it come out .... the curls came out really nice
Same. She never really explained what she expected. Just a lot of unfinished sentences and huffing and puffing. I was waiting for her to say what she wanted.
@@jjones7716she said it didn’t give her definition and made her way way too frizzy. Custards do the same on my hair. I need a good strong hair gel that will clump my curls together. I’ve used up the rest of my custard for twist outs. I like them for that.
I love all the comments on how to apply it:
Apply to soaking wet hair.
Apply quarter sized amount to 1/2” thick sections.
Must be exactly 1/2”
Spray hair after applying to each section with holy water.
Inversion method for 23 minutes to reach appropriate drying.
Eat a lemon.
Done.
Not for me
Do you think using the kinky curly knot today leave in under it would make any difference? The videos I've seen where the girls swear by it, they used them together
NOT AT ALL MA’AM, lol. Trust me...
@@happycurlhappygirl I think I got my receipt! I'm heading back to Target! Lol
Bettina Gibson it might work well on your hair though. Try it first. I’m not a fan of it because it makes my hair too defined but I love Uncle Funky Curly Magic that’s a staple. However I know many people who LOVE Kinky Curly, especially if they have tighter curls.
@@Godsgraceish Thank you! True I'll have to see. I been reading all the comments about using them together and on soaking wet hair! Fingers crossed! Lol
Under it and again over it....
I grew my hair so long using this product
I appreciate all the inserts/clips you put in your video !! They are awsomeee
Rayna's thanks for the video! I am surprised you didn't really like it. I think if you would have used a leave in knot today or another although KKCC is real picky it does not pair with everything that is for sure. It's my grail! Works best in summer for me since I am in NYC
😩😩😩
Kinky curly leave in is bomb, my pockets couldn’t afford that custard but your hair turned out great!!!
My hair loves the KCCC. My favorite hair product. I can have a 2 week wash n go with that product.
No other product does that for me. I would try other stuff because it’s so high, but nothing compares.
I have been using it for 10 years so I have mastered using it.
You hair still looks good to me, even with all your sticky fingers.😩😂
Same for me. I keep trying to find alternatives that are cheaper and/or more popular and keep coming back to KCCC
Wait wait wait......a 2 week w&g?? I’m not even thinking abt the product.....I’m wondering how tangled is ur hair after 2 weeks??!! 😳
God bless you! I guess Kccc does the same for me as the Wetline lol
KrickettwithaK I haven’t find one yet.
It’s so moisturizing and my hair is so soft.
MzSCT wash day is a breeze. And I have Kinky hair, but because this product has my hair moisturized and soft it’s not a tangled bush😂😂
I can’t do that with other gels. I love the Wetline gel too, but at the end of the week my scalp and hair is dry .
Thanks for this review! I'm trying it again on a section of my hair for a wash & go tomorrow.
I love this product. The difference I see from how we both use this is, finger comb each section with knot today first then follow with the kinky curling custard. Then I dry it under a hooded dryer. I feel to air dry it you’d need shorter and less volume hair. Then you don’t touch it until it’s dry. Don’t dry with a handheld hair dryer as you’re constantly touching it causing it to frizz before it drys. Also under a drying hood no product is left. Maybe a slight change with help the end look. I wear my hair like this until my was day defined curls for 2 weeks. Not it does say don’t touch or it will frizz. It’s. Product that you have to use from start to end as directed. Your hair is fabulous and I feel for you not achieving your deserved look.
I don’t do particularly well with custards, jellies or gelees either. My hair is like a 4a/b and so is my daughter’s. Gel is the move for us. I’m so glad that you introduced us to wetline xtreme because it’s amazing!! Before that I was still swearing by eco, Camille Rose curl maker, Aunt Jackie’s and
Curly Chic Gel. Wetline, Eco, Aunt Jackie’s and Curly Chic are very economically friendly. Since you’ve already tried the others you might definitely want to try Curly Chic. I think you’ll like it. I’ve used their leave in also and I love it 🥰
You are sooooo heated!!! I’m weak over here 😂😂😂😂. You’re still beautiful with beautiful hair! Sorry you didn’t like it but it does look pretty 🥰
LOL! I was annoyed, sis 😂😂😂
I'm so happy I found your channel ....I love you.....keep up the good work your hair is always bomb!! AMAND
Thanks so much!
You are the only UA-camr that I can listen to all the way through. 😂 Thanks for keeping it real. 😊
That’s love!!!!
i like how your hair came out. it was really pretty... i use it just for the ponytail portion just because the product is so expensive
Girl when that Prince clip popped up I died laughing lmao. Great vid love
Thank you ma’am!
Works really well for my hair 4a, 4band 3c. Thought your hair looked great before you whipped out the blow dryer. Why didn’t you use a diffuser?
First of all, YOU CRACK ME UP! Secondly, your hair is beautiful. WELCOME TO MY LIFE with pretty much ALL of the products I use with ANY gel of ANY kind.
Very cute! I like the shine and volume!
So what do you do when you have a bad wash and go? Do you immediately rewash on the second day?
Like Deva gels, there seems to be a learning curve for Kinky Curly too.
I do remember Kinky Curly working for my daughter’s hair -she loves to wear a frizzy fro - but for me doing her hair it was too much hassle and the learning curve too steep. I never ever use it. Like you I can make frizz on my own!
Such a natural beauty!🤩🤩🤩
I truly get it. I used it years back it was fine but my texture has changed from almost ten yrs ago and it just sits on my hair nothing else. I use knot today for my daughter. I get better definition from eco and fantasia
Funny that you're doing a video on KK. I just went back to KK and guess what? I love it...again. I stopped using it before because it was so expensive. I love the shine and the hold and the amount of body I have. I have fine hair so not having to constantly put product in my hair is important. Thanks love! Keep doing what you do.
Thanks ma’am!!
I think your hair looks AMAZING!!! 😍😍 My hair loves this gel and gellies, but I am ready to try something new and tired of paying $17 for 8oz or $30 for the 16oz jar.
Gurl I've tried the Kinky Curly product and it made my curls extremely tight and stiff. In fact it was one of the first products I discovered when I first became a Natural. The price is ridiculous for a small jar and its just not great to me period... Smh!! I'd rather use Mielle Organic curling custard for 12.99 and her stuff is bomb sis😂😍
Yasssss
This custard did the same thing to m sister's hair. I like the curling jelly from As I Am or the shea moisture curl enhancing smoothie does really well for me as a wash n go or twist out cream.
I find it sticky and doesn’t do well on my hair..
Yes!
I KNEW $16.99 WEREN’T IT!! Appreciate you for this review.
Im definitely a gel girl, wont even waste anymore money. my hair dont like butters either
When you know, you just know! Lol
@@happycurlhappygirl ❤
I thought I was the only one. I thought my 4c hair was supposed to like
Butters but kccc works for me and lasts. I just need to stop being so heavy handed
i’m shook i’m wearing the same shirt as you as i’m watching this omg 😂 ilysm ❤️❤️❤️
Ayeeeeeeeeeeeee ❤️❤️
I love Kinky Kurly custard. It can be tricky though. The instructions say not to use a leave in or use very little of their leave in. I find it works better with the Shea Moisture Jamaican Black leave in. It does wonders for me BUT, I have high porosity (always needing moisture), low density, kinkier hair type. I also still have a twa which requires less product. It is great for keeping moisture but my hair shrinks a lot with it and if I am not careful, I will get more strand knots. I have used with Eco styler gel before and they worked well together.
Ranya!🤗 I have tried it with other leave in , hair milk, Shea moisturize smoothie and by itself with a little light oil. My hair still come out sticky, very hard and very very Frizzy 🤔. I have high porosity hair and my hair love Aloe Gels but not this!! Watching you my gels are Aussie🎉 Wetline 🎊and Eco🎉 PERFECT EVERYTIME! .
Ayeeeeeeeee ❤️
Hey girl! So I finally bought the wetline gel and everything that works for your hair typically works for mine ur my hair twin my hair was very defined but had NO volume can u plz make a video of u doing a wash and go and how you fluff it out for volume
Yes! I have an old video about that but will do an updated one :)
haha i feel the same way about this gel. I only watched this video to validate my feelings on this gel.
😂😂😂😂
Lol...me too!
As a former KC user, I think most of the frizziness is a result of the teasing you did before it dried. Mine worked well when I left it alone after raking it though. I also used Knot Today b4 applying. Your hair is beautiful and thanks for the tutorial/review!
The problems I have with this gel is that if your hair isn't soaking wet it will feel sticky and it will flake. Also, it doesn't pair well with the majority of the products on the market. Then it comes in a jar which makes it hard to get consistent results every time. It's not worth the trouble or price.
Yep!
The price is why I haven't tried it cuz 16.99
Whew 😩
But your hair really did turn out beautifully!
I used this product on my hair and I realized the product never dries and it stay sticky and wet. I did everything to make it work. I'm going back to gels
I've tried that one several times, and what I learned is a little goes a long way. You got those little white balls from where you put too much on. I hope this helps, but your hair looked beautiful after it dried.
Tried it before... on soaking wet hair, damp hair half way dried. Hated it! I cannot do soaking wet wash and go or my hair will be wet for 40 days and night. It was a sticky mess, little or no definition. I love the leave in!
This is the only custard that worked on my hair. I did use knot today with it. I know you said that wouldn’t have made a difference for your hair. I’m sorry you didn’t get the best results 😔. Your hair is still beautiful! ❤️Maybe trying it under a gel may work for you. Kimberly Cherell here on UA-cam got great results using it with the blue wetline gel.
Well....I tried this gel. First of all....(lip smack) these products are high as a giraffe’s 🍑 so you know I was sizzling when I banded my wash n go for the night & woke up to a dis as tuh!!! All my hard work-soaking my hair with water-air drying for a week! 👏🏾Gone 👏🏾down 👏🏾the 👏🏾drain! 💔 thanks for the video!! ❤️
Girl...
Sitting under a dryer sets it better
Hey,
Try Earthtones Naturals
Gelly and cream. Love it. Black owned downfall you have to order it.
I understand your frustration...I actually love it with the leave in but I can’t put too much. One this I noticed is that I have to air dry and let it fluff out on its own but the definition and moisture is out of this world!!
😩😩😩
Are you going to try the new TGIN gel??
I've never tried this let's see how it does
I like it for detangling, but da next day all u have to do is add water...it has marshmallow in it, so there is a stickiness to it, but I love it.
I use Kinky Kurly and I love it. Your hair is thick and I think it may be your application process. I feel it performs better when you apply it to smaller section and shingle if needed. I rake I through my hair. I feel it is very versatile. I’ve used it in combination with Uncle Funny’s Daughter Curly Magic, or Curls Blueberry Bliss Gel, or even Wetline Extreme. I say try again on after hair and smaller sections. I easily get 5-7 day hair.
Hmm, could be, but I did in small sections and, I’ve been trying custards for years and it’s never worked on my hair. I’ve tried shingling, I’ve tried it all and i never ever get good results...
I have a challenge for you... I’ve been using the Uncle Funky’s Daughter with Kinky Kurly as a topper but not too much Kinky Kurly. I do this because Uncle Funky’s will not give me the frizz free hold I like. I also put a little Wetline as a topper. I get a good two weeks. I do the bagging method at night to keep moisture and my hair has done well. People ask why I mix gels. One, it saves on product and money. Two, I get better holds.
So glad you posted this!!! I was getting ready to buy it. You have to try Obia Naturals Curl Enhancing Custard. Love how it weighs my hair down like the Wetline Extreme! Your hair still looks bomb though!!!!
Oh wow sounds amazing
Did you get flakes with this Custard?
I didn’t get flakes just sticky residue
+happycurlhappygirl Okay then.
Girl, I don’t see why you didn’t like how this looked. It looks so good. One of your best in my opinion.
You’re hair is beautiful regardless!! 😍😍 also where do you get all your chains from that you wear in your videos?
First time trying it was when I got my hair done at the salon in Canada. My hair was dripping wet in the sink when she applied and a little went a long way. When I did it at home, I tried it dripping wet from the shower and it was successful. I got bad results any other time I used it. I also emptied a little of it in another jar and added water, it multiplied and I didn't have to wet my hair so much. BUT with all that said, you have to do what's for you chall. But I absolutely HATE wasting product so I try to find the best way to use it unless it's absolute trash!
Yes! Luckily it’ll work on my daughter! Thank the Lord
Hey, girl! Have you tried the products from dollar tree? The Shea Solutions line has a moisturizing shampoo, deep conditioner, and curl stretch creme. Did I mention there is a gel called Super Look by Wet Line? All of these products are just one dollar each and you get a good amount for the price! Just a video suggestion for the new year.
Oh my 👀👀
Try it wetline! They work well together. I’m a gel lover and this custard was alright but not what I was use to . So I paired it wetline and came out beautiful
I use to LOVE the curling custard when I had a TWA in 2011....but the way my bank account is set up, I stopped using it as my hair got longer!!
😀 my all time favorite product!!! I was a product junkie until I finally tried kinky curly... nvr looked back. In fact, happy to announce I've perfected just using 2 products.. the leave in & the custard. I pretty much only wear WnG. I love your hair, tfs!!!! PS pricing is high, but worth it 😁 as you see, I could go on & on & on 😛😄😄😄 💜💛💜💖
Well good for you ma’am!! ❤️❤️
On a positive note. Rayna? Can we get deets on the lips ? I'm looking for a color just like that. AMAND 🙌🏾
SIDENOTE. this must be a sign I've had this KCC in my cabinet just sitting there.....
Loved the truth in your video. I’m not a fan of custards because they make my hair feel sticky, and I have a ton of flakes. I prefer more gels that’s not as thick and slimy. Great video though boo! Hair still gorgeous but I understand when you like your hair a certain way.
Thanks ma’am!!! You always been bomb 😩😩😩
Idk but to me Its "BOMB" I LOVE YOUR VOLUME!!!! ALL your wash and go's be flawless 😍😍😍😍
I mean..it still looked beautiful in the end
Thank you for reviewing this product. 💖 You saved me some time & money. 🤔 I'll stick with my knot today & curly magic combo.
Sounds amazing!!
I have never tried it but it reminds me of Shea Moisture's gel and that is sticky as ever. Had to wash my hair all over. That fullness thereof though 🙌🏾🙌🏾😍😍 You still pulling it off.
Lol!!!
Thanks for the honest review! You help me validate that custards do not ❌🛑 work for my hair either, just a waste unless I go for 16 hour hairstyle 😆 Happy 2019!
Same to you love!
