Default KCCC or Komaza Coconut Pudding

Hello everyone,

I can only get one of these products- I have 3b hair, looking for something to give me clumps and keep my hair moisturized, light to medium hold without being greasy!
I love my boots curl cream but it has an ingredient (sodium chloride) that I have to avoid.

Please let me know which works better for you

Thanks!!!

This is a tricky one... I love both. But for different reasons and in different humidity/dew point conditions. KCCC has more hold than the Komaza Coconut, but it also elongates curls, so if your looking for curl enhancement, go with the Komaza. Both are very moisturizing.

Look up Kathymack. She's a member here and she sells reasonably priced and decently sized samples of both products (along with a dizzying array of others!). There's a link in her post signature. Then you don't have to invest $15 - $30 + on a product that may not work.

I prefer KCCC by far. To me it's the bets styling product I've ever tried.
I've always used it with KCKT. It provides a lot of clumps, definition, moisture and shine. It does enhance my curls. I got soft, bouncy curls with great volume with this combo.

As OperaCurls said, they act really differently. For me, Komaza is lighter, I need a heavier leave-in with it. It really alongates my curls (what I'm not looking for) and give a lot of volume (which I like). The advantage is that it dries really fast. I've only used this twice so I must still experiment before making a definitive opinion about this product.

Thanks everyone- I think i will get the samples as you mentioned operacurls-

I have to avoid sodium chloride aka salt, since I got the coppola treatment for loosening my curls since they were getting very difficult to deal with. I was using boots and LOVED it, but now I have to find a substitute, which is fine!

It sounds like komaza doesnt have much hold but is a curl enhancer and gives great clumps, meanwhile KCCC is more hold right?

Shoot, kccc over the komaza probably would be great! I used the komaza lotion and pudding underneath ecostyler and my hair came out like this:

I like both KCCC and Komaza, though I prefer Komaza. With either one, I apply it over a leave-in and under a hard-hold gel. Perhaps KCCC does have more hold on its own, but it's not enough hold for me to altogether skip using gel on top. But some stronger curl patterns can do so.
