    This worked ok for me. I got more clumping and more well defined curls when I layered CHS CK under Jessicurl CC. When I used RR with CC it left my curls defined but very stringy. Glad I got the sample, I will not repurchase.

    I use this with Rockin' Ringlets underneath and get great results! For more surface frizz control, though, I need a strong gel over both. And then I get clumpy, soft, curlier curls. You've done it again, Jessicurl! :)

    I have 2b/c hair and I have finally found a product that works! The CC used with the Rockin' Ringlets is a great combination. The Island Fantasy scent is the best! I would recommend this product to everyone.

    Wonderful curl definition and hold that lasted until the next shampoo. If your hair is slightly dry, you will need to apply a leave-in conditioner first, and a small amount of Confident Coils. Am pleased that the description matches the results. I give it 4 curls because there was a tiny bit of barely noticeable flaking, but that could be due to the interaction with the leave-in.

  • jredz - Hair Type:
    I'm really dissapointed with Jessicurl CC. It is fantastic in terms of being soft and crunchless. It looks and feels as if I have virtually nothing in my hair. However, I get little to no hold, intense frizz, and what little hold I do get only lasts about an hour after my hair dries. I use it with RR as directed by their video, but to no avail.

    This works wonderfully with the RR. The only problem I have is that the two of them can dry out my already-dry hair. Still, the visible results are great.

    Gives such great, soft curls, especially over RR! Any crunch that occurs can easily be scrunched out. I use 2 dollops of this over 2 of RR, and then define any especially frizzy front areas with I.C.O.N.'s pomade (which I can't find here, sadly), and I am set to go all day!

    I really like this product. I use it over Jessicurl's Rockin Ringlets for great definition and medium hold (which is fine for me, I don't like hard hair.) Second-day hair is good, so's third. I recommend this highly.

    For me, this product brings out the full potential of RR, which I use underneath CCSS. I call them my 'dynamic duo' and rarely use one without the other. I get soft, well-defined, all-day curls.

  • phat_tmr - Hair Type: 3c
    I love this product! I read reviews of many others that liked this in combo with Curl Keeper and/or Batia & Aleeza Gel, so after some research and reading the reviews, I decided to try this product. I have very thick 3b/3c hair that likes to spiral, I debated whether to get the Rocking Ringlets product. However, I read some advice on the Jessicurl site, where Jessica recommended using CCSS alone if you had thick hair that spiraled on its own. I used this a little differently from the JC videos, since I was layering this with CK and BA gel. The first thing I did was break my hair into 4 sections. Then I went through, and with my fingers raked in the CHS Silk Leave-In, followed by the CK, CCSS, and BA gel. I could clearly see CCSS clumping my ringlets into groups as I applied it! Best of all my hair had body, movement, curl definition, no frizz, beautiful ringlet groupings. Day 2 looked great as well. So although I didn't do the flip over the head and puddle and scrunch application process, the sectioning and rake technique worked out wonderfully. This will definitely be a HG summer product for me!

    Ok. I just tried this product last night. I have to say, I absolutely LOVE IT!! I used it in conjunction with the Rockin'Ringlets, and I am blown away. My curls are not frizzy. They are defined AND They are SOFT!!! Most products will make my curls very stiff. My curls are so soft, I can't believe that this is actually keeping my curls in place! Sorry so long, but I had to say it.

    When this works, my hair looks awesome. I get a little frizz, but it's very minor and far less than any other product I've tried. Only problem I have is that it doesn't always work. Sometimes I can get awesome hair and other times I just end up with a stringy mess, need to keep experimenting.

    This worked okay. It did define my curls, but for some reason they felt dry. It was strange. I think one of the ingredients dried my hair out. It would have been great if not for the drying issue.

    I use this with Rockin Ringlets, and I get amazing curls (with hold!). I love the Island Fantasy scent. I'm having trouble with frizz in high humidity with this combo, though, so I need to keep tweaking it. Maybe with a better leave-in I'll get HG results.

    This is a wonderful product for my 3a/3b hair. I use this product after Rocking Ringlets and before adding some gel on the hair framing my face (those hairs need extra hold). This leaves my curls soft, clumpy, and shiny. This product is silicone free, which is great for my CG routine. The Citrus Lavender scent is heavenly! I believe she may use the essential oils to achieve that lovely scent. All-around a great product.

  • PurpleCurly7 - Hair Type:
    Hair Type 3a. CCSS gives me great clumpage and curl definition. However, it flakes pretty badly, and the flakes fall into my eyelashes. I am continuously rubbing them off. I used only a nickel sized amount as recommended in the accompaying pamphlet in the styling products trial pack. It does not offer a secure strong hold as advertized in the bottle. It needs to be reformulated.

    I love the turn out I got with this styler! Being that my hair will not adhere to one product alone, CCSS gave me great clumping, softness, minimal pouf, and piecey curls, while working together with CK for frizz reduction and Moptop's anti frizz gel for light hold. I like that all of these products are silicone free as well!

    Excellent product.Never builds up or weighs down my fine hair. I use it by itself, over Gelebration or under another gel. Pretty much depends on my mood. I can get away with a dime-sized amount in my long hair, so a bottle lasts me a long time.

    I'm a long-time user of Paul Mitchell super clean styling gel, so I was very reluctant to go without my precious silicones. When I first looked at CC, I thought oh great, it just feels like a conditioner. I was very happy with the hold it gave me, NO frizz, bouncy, soft, curls with no crunch! It works good on it's own, better with Rockin' Ringlets. No more silicones for me (that is, when I use up what I've got left; hey, I'm cheap!).

    Holy Cow. This stuff is so great, I cannot even begin to gush...but I will. I used this after applying RR as recommended. Super ringlets, great clumping of tendrils, almost zero frizz. I applied to almost sopping hair then plopped for about 5 min. Then let air dry completely without touching. When dry it was slightly stiff, so I flipped my head over and shook and VOILA! Soft curls with great definition. DH said he has never seen my hair curl like that and loved the softness and scent. Highly recommend for soft hold and definition on slightly coarse 3B.

    This product did absolutely nothing for my hair. It was literally like I had no styling product in it. I tried all different amounts and combinations with the other Jessicurl styling products, but still nothing. Love the Jessicurl shampoo and conditioners, but none of the styling products from Jessicurl do anything for me.

    I really like this stuff. It makes my hair soft and shiny, great clumping. The only problem is my halo. I still get frizz there by the end of the day. I may need something stronger on that part mixed with the CCSS. I LOVE the way my hair feels after I apply it, and with the rockin ringlets I get awesome shiny and spiraly curls, but as I said, not enough hold to prevent frizz for my thick 3a/b hair. I was hoping it would help more to prevent frizz on my halo.

    I really, really wanted to like this product; but alas, I guess it just isn't for me. No matter how much I use, I find the hold to be very light, ultra light (even lighter than RR). I live in South FL and we are still in the depths of summer humidity and this product (combined with RR or alone) did not hold up. My hair was undefined and frizzy... and my hair is rarely ever frizzy. I did have good luck when I paired the CCSS with a very firm gel (namely Biosilk Rock Hard Gelee), but it just doesn't work consistently enough for me. Maybe this would work well for those in cooler climates? As usual though, I love that Jess makes her products available it 2 scented choices and an unscented choice.

    I really wanted to like this, but it just didn't work for me. Curl definition and clumping are great, but it makes my hair frizzy. I had a similar response with RR. There must be something in them both that my hair doesn't like.
