Curly girls alternative to Boots pink curl creme

28 replies

bigfatgypsy · 10/11/2011 19:30

I'm just getting into this and bought some pink curl cream from boots as previously recommended but I don't like it at all. It's very sticky and my hair is very dry today, and it just doesn't seem to do anything for me.

Is there a good alternative? I'm using the Umberto Gianni flirty curls gel which is brilliant but could do with something conditioning to leave in between the normal conditioning and the gel.

Any suggestions? I have (I think) botticelli curls with highlights.

Trills I've looked at the Trevor Sorbie ingredients and I can't see anything siliconey or anything with initials sls or sps or whatever, so I'm going to say it's probably silicone free.

anything that ends in -cone is a silicone.

I use Samy Curl Constructor mousse. It works for me despite a 'cone' in the ingredients - where the curl creme didn't. I wash with cheap Sainsbury's conditioner and also 'plop' with a microfibre turban from Poundland - bargain. My hair is corkscrew curls and,since dumping the shampoo, has never looked better.
