Left my hair squeaky clean (not a good thing because squeaking suggests both buildup and too drying) and my face at my hairline irritated (felt "hot" for hours afterward

Firstly the smell. Oh my GOD. Euckhghgh. Terrible. Extremely unappealing. I did try to use it though--made my hair completely tangled and straw like. Its the only product other than baking soda that has ever done that. When I managed to de tangle and condition it was very soft (hence the 2 curls) but it was not for me. Love some of the other Oyin stuff but this was awful for my very fine and thin hair that's porous.

Overall, I like how it hydrates my hair. I did the BC one month ago so I have only tried Giovanni 50/50 products. I like this much better because my hair is soft and moisturized. The smell is a little strong from the hemp but the honey gives a sweet fragrance. Maybe I will try the fig and cedar scent from Oyin later. I would purchase this again and the price is reasonable.

Worked great as a gentle cleanser and body wash. I love the black cedar fig & coco-mango scented one.

dartarro_21 - Hair Type: 3a
I have short mostly 3a hair, but also a mix of 2a-3b, & I love how soft & silky it makes it. it takes out the frizz & keeps moisture so well that all I need is my Diva Dryer & pea sized amount of curl gel & I'm good to go. the back/bottom part of my hair is pretty straight, so the moisture also helps me be able to style it more easily. The only bad part is that it's hard to see foam, so it feels like you need a lot, & my hair does get a bit thick/gunky after too many washes (also makes my blonde a bit brassy), but I fix that by using a regular color-lock shampoo about once a month to get it fresh & fix the color. Even though I use a lot it has lasted me quite a few months as well.

Pwnie - Hair Type:
Must be shaken before use: consistency of water, difficult to distribute through hair. It made my shoulder-length 3A hair difficult to comb through, thick and straw-like to the touch. It dried soft with a moderate amount of residue around the crown. Does not rinse out clean. On top of all that, the packaging is not waterproof, and the ink from the label will come off all over your hands. Smells a bit like pungent hemp and cinnamon. Not a repurchase.

Product - Hair Type: 3a
This was great on my fine frizzy hair, especially in the humid weather we are having now. I felt that I didn't need much conditioner. I still love my Kinky Curly Come Clean Shampoo, but will use this on alternate days. I used Kinky Curly Knot Today and Quidad Climate Control with it. This all worked great together. I have fought my hair for years and this is great. No frizz without silicones or build-up! For the client who complained about ordering, if you order your products from the Naturally Curly website you never have a problem with anything.
