DevaCurl Styling Cream, Define and Control, Touchable Hold, 5.1 Ounce

I bought deva curl and after my first use, my hair looked atrocious— not at all what I was expecting. After doing some research, I’ve learned that devacurl products have been causing hair loss and scalp irritation for thousands of women. There’s even an on-going lawsuit against Devacurl for those exact reasons. If you go to the Think Dirty app and type in devacurl, you will see how poorly made and how bad their products are for your hair. Although I haven’t experienced this because I have only used it twice, there are plenty of videos on YouTube and groups on Facebook that have people attesting to this. All I can tell you is to do your research.

DO NOT BUY. Knock off version of the real devacurl product. Not the real DevaCurl Styling Cream!!!!!

I've been using DevaCurl products for years. I've always used the exact same drying process, styling routine, and care. I've used a mixture of different brands that worked extremely well with devacurl. My routine was borderline flawless at this point. I saw that amazon had the styling cream cheaper so I bought it. I've been using it for a month and it did not give me the same results. My hair dried out completely from using this product. My curls are stringy and lifeless. I thought since the weather is getting colder I'd need more moisture, so I switched back to just pure devacurl products to see if it would improve. nothing. same end result, stringy, dry curls.I'm not sure if I just got a bad one, but honestly I can't even use it anymore.

I am obsessed with this stuff. This has become my holy grail hair styling product. I use this together with Renpure coconut whipped creme and let my hair air dry, then fluff with a tiny bit of thin hair oil and it leaves my hair so soft, bouncy, and defined!!! Smells amazing too, like skittles :)

I have 3A/3B curls and have been styling my hair relatively the same way since the 7th grade (I'm now 29! #curlyhairproblems). I've tried just about every drugstore product and a handful of salon products to help manage my curls and have been using DevaCurl for the past 4 months. I think I've found the perfect combination for my hair and it involves this product. By itself, I do not like the cream on my hair-- it feels like my hair is too poofy and needs something stronger to set it. When I mixed this product with equal parts Ultra Defining Gel (which makes my hair too stiff), a miracle happened! Both products together work well in keeping my curls defined, yet bouncy. I've tried this combination twice and it's worked great each time, so I'm sold (because, before now, I've NEVER been able to reproduce good hair days two washes in a row...just doesn't happen!). Also, I was able to wear my hair down for multiple days between washings. In the attached photos, I just got in from a wind storm, which shows that the cream/gel combo can allow your hair to take a beating). Crossing my fingers I didn't jinx my hair luck by writing this review. As far as the smell goes, it smells like Skittles and is a little too strong for my preference. Still ok, though!

I heard that the gel is the magic and the curling cream that is meant to be paired with it is pointless without the gel. I have type 3b hair and honestly it isn't as great as it is glorified to be. What I do like is the soft to touch, no hardness the gel leaves me with when my hair dries and i lovee the fullness it gives me when it drys (pillow soft for sure!) --but I do not like that it does not hold enough for 2nd day hair.I have to rewet my hair again and apply product to get my hair to look nice the 2nd day. It is too expensive to apply everyday. You will also have to apply a lot of oils since it does leave your hair looking dull and not shiny. Although it is soft... what can I say, we are all still searching for THE perfect product...

I wish I would have done more thorough research of this line of products as I purchased 3 items from them but I recently came across some shocking testimonials of MANY women whose hair fell out in CLUMPS from long- and short- term use of DevaCurls products. Apparently there is class action lawsuit against them for causing severe hair & scalp damage. I only tried the products I bought 2-3 times but I am not willing to risk potential damage by continuing to use these products. I am not a part of the lawsuit and just want others to make educated decisions about the products they choose to use. It's unfortunate because I really liked the products I purchased.

I'm really digging this cream! My hair is a combo of course and fine wavy hair. Usually the products i try are either too stiff or my hair is all frizz. This is a nice light, non sticky product that leaves my hair bouncy but not fizzy. I highly recommend!

This is easily the best cream I’ve used for curl definition and hold (and over the years, I’ve tried loads on my 3b hair). I am not a fan at all of the smell (sort of chemically, citrusy) but once my hair is dry, I don’t really notice it. I go through it quite quickly but it gets the best results out of my hair

HAIR IS FALLING OUT!! Do not buy this product. See attached my hair day one of using this product. My natural bouncy, amazing and volumised curls. And then also see how they are now, flat, thin and frizzled. I have suffered severe hair loss and it has ruined my curls. Check the internet DEVA CURLS DESTROYS CURLS AND SCALPS, it causes hair loss. Please report this company.

After following the cg method for a number of months and still not finding ‘my go to product’ I decided to give this product a whirl, despite the price tag! I had quite high hopes for it, as it had good reviews and suitable with its no nasties ingredients. I really wish I hadn’t bothered, what a disappointment. It does nothing for my hair.After my wash routine I style my hair with this cream, plop with a microfibre towel & finish off by diffusing. My hair is just left looking a bit lifeless & certainly with less curls than before using it. It has absolutely no hold & my hair just looks frizzy. By the end of day 2 my hair is dry & ready for washing again (normally I can go at least 3 days without having to wash again).Maybe it just isn’t suited to my hair but gutted I spent almost £25 on it. The only positive thing about this is smell, which is super nice.

Had great hopes for this but sadly it didn't deliver, I found it very drying and dulled my hair , it did increase curls but felt heavy , had to wash the next day as I didn't like the feel of it

I spent 25quid on this because it was out of stock from my usual place. Was nothing like the original. Smelled like toilet bleach and didn't hold my curls.
