Most Helpful Positive Review Throw-and-go foam for soft, weightless curls! The Curl Talk Refreshing Curl foam is a light foam product designed to add shine, control frizz and promote softness and curl retention. My curls are color damaged so I need firmer hold products for curl retention, but I love the soft and smooth look this product gave me. I purchased this 8 fl oz. product from Ulta Beauty to apply to my curls in between washes. I look for curl-friendly formulas that aren't sticky and won't cause build up on my unwashed curls, and this product hits the mark (and is at the right price point.) This is my "throw and go product" when I dampen my hair in the shower. I may not need conditioner with mid-week curls and this foam gives my hair a soft hold practical for a healthy, bouncy curl look without spending too much time styling. I apply a healthy amount of pumps to dispense the product and scrunch into brushed, damp curls. I normally diffuse to add volume. I did not experience a cast on my curls with this product, and I think it'd be perfect for any curly girl or guy after a curl refreshing product that adds light hold, smooths frizz and softens hair without the sulfates, silicones, alcohols, dyes or parabens!
Most Helpful Critical Review I'm going to stick with dry shampoo.. The product did leave my hair soft; unfortunately, it did not work for its intended purpose. This was supposed to be refreshing foam for in-between washes. My hair does not get overly greasy on the 1st day of non-wash. I figured this would be better than dry shampoo since this is specifically for curly hair. I have a wavy/curly mix, and it made my curls flat and my hair too soft to do anything with it. It made my hair greasier than it usually would be. This seems like it is a product for someone who has overly dry hair. If you have excessively dry, extremely curly hair, it would probably work for you. It would soften your hair and give you looser curls. This was not what I was looking for. I will stick to dry shampoo and my normal, long process of keeping my curls/waves intact.

Very good product to freshen up & redefine 2nd or 3rd days curls/waves. It's light weight and doesn't leave your hair sticky or crunchy. Only con is the bottle is so huge which makes it hard to travel with it
Love it! 5
Alyssa from Pembroke Pines, FL
This foam is so light weight and perfect for my 3A hair! Sometimes I use this alone or I pair it with a gel/cream and it works perfect!
Will buy again!! 5

Is perfect for my curly hair i love the not your mother products..
Great for refresh day! 5
Claudiamarie from undisclosed
I was really struggling with my refresh when I first started the CGM and struggled with frizz no matter how I protected my curls when sleeping. This foam was AWESOME at helping redefine my curls, decrease frizz and really help with giving volume! One tip is to apply the foam on your microfibre towel and then use the towel to scrunch it into your hair. The product may also need some extra water if it is dry out.
Love it! 5

Amazing! 5

Really refreshing! Love the life it gives back to my curls!
Amazing!! 5
MerB from New Mexico
I absolutely love the refreshing foam. I use it just about every week and it gives me beautiful results. It leaves a light cast so you can rock your curls for the rest of the week!
Just the right amount of hold. 5
Creole Lola from Houston, tx
This foam is perfect for refreshing without the strong hold. I love it for my 3c/4a curls.
Great! 4
Yoshi from Gaithersburg MD
This mousse is super light weight! It's perfect for refreshing day 3-4 curls for me. I love the fact that it doesn't really add to the buildup. It doesn't make my curls heavy. I prefer a little more hold since I Usually dampen/ wet my curls to refresh. This mousse works better for me on dry curls.
Love it 5

Not miraculous, but TOTALLY works for wavy curls 5
Miss Cat from Portland, OR
I'm a 2a girl, so without intervention, I have straight hair just by virtue of how delicate my wave pattern is. I tend to do CGM day 1, sleep in some sort of curls (usually scarf curls in a bonnet) for 2-3 nights, and then wash day again. This is great for day 2 and 3 hair. I tend to wake up with a decent coiled hair texture (for a 2a girl) that falls into a light romantic curl/wave by the end of the day. This product helps me to stay more on the curly side of things.
How I use it: First I'll use a dry shampoo mousse (I hate sprays and this product doesn't do anything for oil control). Then I flip my hair upside down and do a small pump. I distribute the product over my hands and then scrunch starting from the ends. Then I repeat and focus further and further up my hair.
Tips:
- I do little bits of product at a time because this stuff is a bit tricky to evenly distribute if you use too much in one spot.
- I stay upside down for like a minute while I do some scrunching. This stuff has a tiny bit of moisture so it needs a minute or two to dry.
- This stuff is not going to give you NEW curls. It is a refresher. It adds definition and body back in, but if you didn't have curls 5 hours ago, this stuff is not going to help you.
FLAKES ON HAIR 1
A from Atlanta
Not for curly hair 3b. I used this twice now and both times I saw my hair flaked. Hair looks good as soon as you apply this but right after hair dries up and looks dull. Not purchasing again.
2nd, 3rd & maybe even 4th day hair holy grail product! 5
Colleen from Las Vegas NV
Finally found a great, truly lightweight curl refresher! I've tried sooo many refreshing, texturizing and curling sprays that it's just ridiculous but thought hey this is a foam and I love this brand so why not. Man, so glad I did!! For me I finally found something that actually does what it says it will instead of doing nothing. Also this is free from all the junk us curlies are trying to avoid so that's another bonus! Oh and how could I forget the buy 1 get 1 50% off sale that's on NYM like every other week?! So I mean you just can't go wrong here!
Unfortunately, I will be returning this product by 8/24. One 3
Marty from Sun City, CA.
Unfortunately, I will be returning this product, hopefully within 4 days. The first reason is totally my mistake, because I had forgotten my glasses I didn't know the product turned your hair the color mentioned on the container. The second reason is product left my hair too crunchy.

Alma from undisclosed
After not using mousse for almost 2 years I picked up this product and immediately fell in love with it! It does not leave curls with that crunch feeling other products leave, a little goes a long ways and it adds amazing volume the best part it defines and leaves my curls frizz free!
No water needed 5
Yezy C from Long Island NY
I tried this with no water added, just 2-3 pumps for the whole hair and it revived my curls back or better then wash day. Light weight, smells great and hair looks and feels amazing
I loved it!! 5

Curlsbyshirlz from New York
This product is great for a flexible hold without feeling crunchy! It also makes my hair look shiny AND smells great. Love it!
Works great on wavy hair! 4
Susana from San Diego
I've been using this for about a week and love how it redefines my curls when I need them refreshed. It does form a mini new cast but it after diffusing my waves are defined and look fresh! Missing one star only bc I still need to spray some moisture in with it but it's still amazing!
Not a fan 2
Brandie from Ohio
Was not a fan.. after using this product along with the shampoo & conditioner my hair felt greasy & my curls were not bouncy. Returned
My hair survived a literal car wreck 5
ky1210 from Pensacola, FL
OMG so I love this product. I got in a seriously wack car wreck that totaled my car (I'm recovered now!) and knocked me out but somehow my hair continued to hold it's style after I got punched by an air bag and then being bedridden for a couple days after. NYM products are NOT messing around 13/10
