RANT!! kinky muk curl amplifier

I hate this stuff!

Kinky Muk Curl Amplifier promises-

• Natural hold & shine
• Eliminates frizz
• Defines & accentuates curls
• Moisturises hair as it styles
• Humidity resistant
• Fruit salad fragrance

Sadly, for me, it just doesn't deliver. My curls aren't defined, they're frizzy and just blah! My hair is nowhere near as curly as usual. I have 'nothing' hair.

The product is so firm and sticky, I had my doubts as I was applying it to my hair that it wouldn't work. And it didn't. $25 later.

For my hair, I will be going back to either of my 2 loves. Both of these deifne my curls so well, don't go crunchy and always work for me!

Curly ladies, what are your must have products to style your curls? I'm always keen to try something new! ♥

    I mix the Redken Curl Refiner with Lush's Goth Juice in a ratio of about 3:1. Gives me a bit more hold and shine than just the Redken alone. This is the first product combo I've ever been happy with (and I'm 35!).

    I also spray in a leave-in conditioner first. Was using Biolage Daily Tonic but have just run out and will probably try going without this step to see how it goes.

    I'm definitely going to check out the Lush Goth Juice, it sounds great. thanks heaps for the rec Sarah ♥

    I use a leave in conditioner too, I'm too scared to leave out that step!

    I use Lak2 Leave in Conditioner followed by Wella High Hair Mousse - really give volume and beautiful curls. But the most important step is to apply it while your hair is really wet for the best curls. After my hair dries I apply either Redken Glass 01 serum through my hair or Redken Outshine gloss to my hair - depends how heavy I want my hair to be -the first is really light and only needs 1 - 2 drops the second is a cream formula and really tames the hair as well as giving shine.

    KMS Curl Up Control Creme - it really defines curls and stops them from frizzing, but doesn't go crunchy. A must have!

    Im a fan of the Redken 07 Curl definer cream, I also like the TIGI Curls rock curl amplifier cream. Both work really well.

    Hum I don't know if these products are available in France, I think i'll check it out. I'm currently using a schwarzkof (God, the brand's name is so hard to write^^)mousse; it refines curls and eliminate frizz. You must apply it on damp hair but it crunches when the hair is not dry yet afterwards :/ I use another trick when i want to have more waves than curls; I wash my hair in the evening, apply my mousse,make a braid and sleep with this braid. On the morning, I untie my hair, spray some fixating spray and i'm good to go :p
