Reviews

Two Great Products!

"The Curlsmith Essential Moisture Shampoo and Essential Moisture Conditioner are both really interesting products. They are totally different from the range of shampoos and conditioners that I have used my entire life. The shampoo doesn’t foam up like crazy and weigh your hair down…it’s light and gentle and is easy on your scalp. The conditioner is very light and doesn’t get all over your body, making it feel slimy. It rinses out clean…both products leave your hair clean and fresh and curly!! A very different experience, and highly recommended."

Amazing conditioner, awful packaging

"This is one of the best conditioners I’ve used and it makes my waves so hydrated. But honestly the packaging ruins it for me. This is a thick product and it’s in a tiny pump that barely puts anything out per pump and when you get to the bottom it doesn’t pump at all so you’re stuck trying to squeeze it out of a stiff bottle that isn’t meant for squeezing in the slightest. This should be in a squeeze bottle unless it’s a jumbo size which I’ve been waiting for at least a year for, but still doesn’t exist. The conditioner itself is hands down awesome but too much is wasted with bad packaging or I have to spend too much time fighting the packaging to use it."

— Heather M. (2/5)

Amazing

"Great conditioner! Hydrating, makes curls soft and shiny. Only downside is the pump bottle, since it is not easy to get the product out from the bottle when it is almost finished. You cannot pump it out."

— MARIA D. (5/5)

Lovely products for wavy hair

"Amazing products, super light weight and moisturizing. Love the curl creams, they work really well with wavy hair"

— Allison A. (5/5)

Nope

"Sucks - WAY too lightweight for 3C, probably awesome for people with super fine not too curly hair."

— Pallavi R. (1/5)

Love the Conditioner, Not the Pump

"I really like this conditioner and it works really well for my curly hair. The only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is the packaging. The conditioner is quite thick, so once the bottle is about a quarter full, the pump struggles to get the remaining product out and it becomes difficult to use. I would much prefer a regular lid instead of a pump so it’s easier to get all of the product out."

— Stella A. (4/5)

Love curlsmith

"Great conditioner! Its super moisturizing and smells absolutely amazing! I have been a loyal customer for about 6yrs now and I will never switch. I use multiple products from them and love them all. Try it ... its so worth it. Sheri"

Soft, Hydrated Hair. Easy Detangling

"When I bought this product, it was the first time I was buying Curlsmith products. This conditioner was so amazing. It left my hair really soft, it felt nourished? Maybe hydrated is a better word. Even when washing my hair with hot water. It made it very easy for me to detangle my hair. I absolutely love it, to the point I am looking for an alternative to buy it while it is out of stock."

— V (5/5)

I needed help and the essential moisture delivered

"I needed help with my dry hair and used alone or with the essential shampoo it delivered. The conditioner all by itself left my hair soft and bouncy. But, used together with the shampoo it is a true tag team!"

— Kathleen B. (5/5)

Love this conditioner

"I alternate between the Essential Moisture Conditioner and the Leave-in Conditioner. Both are awesome. Leave my hair soft."

— Jolene M. (5/5)
