Curl Cream - which one is best?

I've been using Tigi Bedhead Foxy Curls contouring cream but it's now been 'improved'. I now have horrible sticky, crispy waves rather than the curls I had with the previous formula. Can anyone suggest anything to replace it, preferably no more than a tenner?

Thanks in advance

Cantu defining cream. for once in my life my hair looks beautifully wavy whereas before it was soo frizzy. be careful not to use too much or it can go crispy.

Coco Loco coconut cream from Boots is the best I've found after they stopped selling my favourite.

Try Curly Ellie products.

The results are amazing.

The ultra cheap pink one from Boots is actually really good, although nothing will replace the studio line curl spray from L'Oréal I used to use.

Thank you for the suggestions, lots to try!

I like the ogx Moroccan curl cream in a turquoise bottle from boots

I use Cantu as well. It gives great definition, but not hold so I use gel on top.

Have a look at Trepadora for lovely products. Also I find that even with fine hair, if I run a tiny blob of conditioner through the lengths (not scalp) then my curls are much more smooth and bouncy!

If your hair is crispy it means your hair has got a cast on it to help it form waves/curls. Once your hair is dry you should scrunch out the crunch to break the cast down. You'll be left with lovely soft waves/curls. This is part of the curly girl method.

I've used Trepadora and DevaCurl products and they're both really good.
