Reviews

Bounce without weight

"After significant hair thinning, my usual products weighed my hair down. I tired this and problem solved. It hydrates and styles without adding weight. My hair is soft and moisturized and my curls are bouncy and shiny. Love this line."

Caroline B. (5/5)

Controls frizz but not heavy

"Basically the title :-) I like to use a small amount of this after a clarifying wash and condition. I have fine thin 2c wavy hair!! Still experimenting with perfecting my curly girl routine but this one is a keeper for now."

Emily (5/5)

Very nice leave in and

"Very nice leave in and it is gonna become my holy grail. these all smell so darn good and keep my hair bouncy and full of bodied movement and you can build off of it with the whole line. Get you some, you will love it!!!!!"

Beth S. (5/5)

Great product!

"I love this leave in! It's not too heavy, so it does't weigh my curls down and it smells amazing. My only issue is that the pump broke on first use, so I've been having to just dump the product into my hand - obviously, not the end of the world, just inconvenient."

Lee (4/5)

I had never ordered this

"I had never ordered this product as Iv found curl creams and leave ins have weighed my hair down but this has been amazing."

Jillian R. (5/5)

Greasy oily texture

"I was used to using their air dry product and loved it. I thought that the leave-in would be similar and help me retain some moisture. I struggle with dry hair often because I dye my hair frequently because of grays. I ended up buying this product instead, based on Ulta's recommendation and after using it a few weeks now I've noticed my hair becomes super greasy and oily when I use it, it doesn't moisturize at all like the air dry formula, I don't get any of the saturated feeling that's normal with high end leave-in conditioners, it doesn't help with knots at all, and it exacerbated my psoriasis causing a bunch of itching and a rash. It was expensive and a total waste of money for me."

Kat (1/5)

Hydration without weighing down!!

"I have tried many leave ins for my fine wavy/curly hair, nothing beats this one for keeping it lightweight and not dragged down by a heavy product feeling. Would recommend for any thinner finer hair curlies out there!!"

Emily T. (5/5)

High ranking but not my #1

"Great and reliable product— while between the two I prefer the CS weightless air dry cream, this one also has great slip and consistent results"

Kat b. (4/5)

Too much hydration

"Left a residue on my wavy hair resulting in loss of any curl but a good deal of frizz."

Pat B. (2/5)

Amazing

"A friend recommended this for my daughter who has wavy/curly hair. It has made a huge difference!! Her curls can be seen instead of frizz. Love it."

Q&A

Is this a replacement for the archived Full Body Volumizing Lotion? If not, how does this differ from that and will the Full Body Volumizing Lotion be brought back?
Hi Maisie, Thanks so much for reaching out—we completely understand wanting to find a favorite product again The Hydrate & Plump Leave-In isn’t a direct replacement for the Full Body Volumizing Lotion. While both are lightweight, the Leave-In is more focused on hydration, softness, and enhancing natural fullness, whereas the Volumizing Lotion was specifically designed to boost volume and body with a lighter moisture feel. At the moment, the Full Body Volumizing Lotion has been discontinued, and we don’t have plans to bring it back—but we truly appreciate you sharing how much you loved it, and we’ll be sure to pass that feedback along to our team. Let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks, Curlsmith
Can you use heat after this product has been applied and fully dried? It is a heat protectant?
Hi Monique, Thanks for reaching out! The Hydrate & Plump Leave-In is not a heat protectant, so we don’t recommend using heat styling tools after it has been applied and dried unless you layer a heat protectant on top first. If you have additional questions please let us know. Thanks, Curlsmith
Which styler, besides the volumizing mousse, can be used with this leave in? I usually use the strength or the anti-frizz stylers.
