So whenever I dry my hair, it tends to become frizzy and fluffy overall! I'd like to share the advantages I've experienced from this perspective. 1. The hair becomes calm overall and the curls become more defined. - When I first heard about 'curl cream', I thought it was just focused on creating perms or waves, but it seems to have a greater effect on tidying up the overall mood and shape of the hair! Of course, maintaining the perm curl is a basic function. Since my perm has been in for a while, my hair looked very messy when it dried, but after applying this cream, it felt slightly firm and my hair was neatly fixed. Sprays can fix the hair, but it ends up splitting and being difficult to style. This product is easy to apply, and just lightly touching it makes the hair look neat overall, so it felt optimized for someone like me with clumsy hands. 2. The fragrance! - Fragrance can be quite divisive, and I had an unpleasant experience with a curl cream before where the strong scent made me feel nauseous. But this cream has a subtle, slightly stronger fragrance that isn't headache-inducing, more like the refreshing scent after a thorough shower. It's perfect for me since I personally like the fragrance of freshly washed hair. However, the fragrance is quite strong, so those with fragrance sensitivities should keep that in mind.
ConsWith curl creams, if you don't control the amount properly, the hair can become stiff overall, which is a bit of a downside. For those with very damaged hair, I'd recommend applying an essence first, then gradually increasing the amount of curl cream to find the right amount for your hair. That way, you can avoid overly stiff hair.
TipDon't apply too much from the start! - While the advantage of this product is that you can easily style the curls, compared to sprays or other fixing products, for those of us with really clumsy hands like me, it's best to gradually increase the amount until you find the right amount. Otherwise, your hair might end up looking like a thick broom all over. With the right amount, you can easily style your hair! Don't like the stiff, damaged hair feeling? - Try applying an essence first before the curl cream, without drying your hair. In my case, when I just used the curl cream on its own, my hair felt like it was lacking moisture overall.

I liked it, and even my mom, who doesn't like strong scents, said this one was subtle and okay.
ConsIt was difficult to style it stiffly.
TipLonger hair might have better hold than shorter hair!!

No matter how much I try, the volume just doesn't stay. I thought using a curling essence might help, and while the results were a bit ambiguous, it did seem better than not using it at all! ♧ Salon Fragrance I personally enjoyed the fragrance my hair had after visiting the salon. And after using this product, I got that same salon-fresh scent, which I really liked!
Cons♧ Better than not using it, but no dramatic curling effect While it was better than not using it, I didn't feel the need to repurchase this product. I had expected the curls to be dramatically long-lasting, but since my hair is damaged, the curling power wasn't as impressive as I had hoped. ♧ Hair became stiff As per the instructions, I applied it to damp hair and blow-dried. Surprisingly, my hair became incredibly dry and frizzy. It got really tangled as well.🥺 That was a bit disappointing. ♧ Price The price is also a bit high for something I'd have to keep repurchasing, which is a downside.

It has a slightly old-fashioned salon smell? When applied after a perm, it provides good hold and the curls will bounce back nicely. Unfortunately, since my perm has been in for a while, I didn't see a significant effect when I washed my hair and applied it. But when I used a curling iron and applied it lightly, it seemed to hold the style well.
ConsIt doesn't have any moisturizing or nourishing functions - it's simply a styling product to hold the curl. If you don't apply it evenly in small amounts, it will harden and become stiff. It has a soft wax-like feel? The product left on your hands hardens into a rigid state. It's good for use after a perm, but those who blow dry or use a curling iron may not find it as useful.
TipAs mentioned above, for those who have had a perm, applying it right after washing your hair should help revive the curls nicely~ I'll try purchasing and using it the next time I style my hair.

ConsSince my hair is thin, when I just use this cream without applying an essence separately, my hair becomes extremely stiff. Even though my hair is short and doesn't tangle, after doing a protein treatment and then using this, my hair was still frizzy and stiff. It seems like this product just doesn't work well for me.
TipFor severely damaged hair, it's better to first apply a different essence and let it absorb, then use this cream on top.

(I always apply this product as a finishing touch after drying, and the dry curls last longer and don't fall out as easily.) - The product comes in a tube form, and the texture is like a moisturizing cream.
ConsMany people disliked the fragrance, but I thought it was okay. The scent is somewhat neutral, not unpleasant. I applied it once before drying my hair, and it felt slightly stiff, but the hold was good.
TipI mix this product with an oil when drying my hair, and then apply the curl cream alone as a final touch.
