I stumbled across my Hair Rules Kinky Curl Cream under my sink a couple of days ago and decided to give it a try AGAIN. The first 2 times I was not a fan of the product but this time around I got great definition using the products as a styling aid for twisting in prep for a twist out versus a wash n go.
I made a YouTube video that will be posted under the jump and I wanted to get you fellow naturals opinion on something. This products description is "This amazing, ultra-moisturizing curling cream transforms spongy 'fro and kinks into bouncy, luscious spirals, simply and effortlessly. Stretches and defines tightly wound tresses without chemical or thermal manipulation." Now, the part I highlighted in red is what I disagree with, personally I do not think that tight kinky hair cannot be "transformed" into BOUNCY LUSCIOUS SPIRALS but that's just my opinion. In my mind I am picturing type 4 curls becoming type 3 curls-- maybe it's just me. HairRules YT channel left a comment on the video which you can check out for yourself. Doesn't seem like they were too keen on my opinion.
I do think that there are products on the market, like this one, that can definitely enhance the natural curl pattern of ones hair but NO PRODUCT can give you what you don't already have. What do you ladies think about that? Please leave your comments in the box below, I think this can lead to some GREAT natural hair convo.

Great review Alex. HairRules CLEARLY cannot take opinions. How can u be a company and get an attitude when someone gives their honest opinion of your product. I agree w/u, no product can give you what u don't already have. Most products enhance and can sometimes "maintain" your hair..but as for giving u luxurious, bouncy curls...if that's what u don't already have..I think not.
I don't think that there is a product that can transform your curls. Everyone is intitled to their own opinion. HairRules surely must understand that their products won't work for every one of their customer's hair. SMH
wow, don't companies really that it's ALWAYS a clusterfuck to come and try to argue with a consumer over something like that????

I've been using this product over a year after going to Hair Rule last year to get my hair colored. They have a technique that they use with the product to accomplish what the bottle states. When I don't use the technique that they taught me in the salon that is when the bottle is misleading to me.
I've never trid this product. However, if your hair isn't naturally curly then nothing will "make" it curl per se unless you manipulate in some kind of way. Through my 6 years of being natural, I have learned that it doesn't matter what brand of condish I use, my hair will curl up the same exact way. I can't talk for everyone's hair, but that's just what my hair does. I do think that people try to look for this magic potion that will make you have these spongy bouncy spiral curls and the more you reject your texture, the more upset you will become. Accept your texture and work with what you have, and stop trying to find this magic potion. It's not what you put in your hair, it's how you take care of it.
