Great slip and hold
Worked great for my 2B waves! Smells good and has great slip with my styling brush! Only takes a small amount, so the bottle should last awhile. Neat bottle with a twist to open and close cap. No cast to scrunch out and I ended up with soft and moisturized curls with just this product alone. I'...

Doesn't weigh down hair, not super effective
This product was alright. I have curly hair that can't handle too much product and this product is light enough to not weigh my hair down, which I like. It has a thin consistency that isn't overpowering when applied to the hair. However, I feel that it doesn't actually help my hair. The curls are no...

I usually don't use curling or wave products since I still don't know how to manage my hair (still in the process of learning) But, I loved the packaging of this product instead of the top of the product having a snap cap, this perfector had a twist cap for less mess and aesthetic feel to it! I loved the way it didn't weigh down my hair after using it, and a little goes a long way too with this perfector it wasn't hard to manage or use. I have waves and it really did a good job of defining my waves and left them moisturized throughout the whole day etc.
My curls definitely don't lie!
I have fine, mid-back length curly hair. Most styling products are heavy and leave my hair feeling crunchy and dirty - by the end of the day it's usually a tangled hot mess. I used this product by itself and the results were shockingly amazing! This product defines beautifully with soft, natural looking, voluminous curls. It styled my hair effortlessly and only took 2 dime-sized pumps. I love everything anout this product right down to the design! Bonus: It smells really good!
It was a no for me
Love shakria but this curl cream was a no. I am giving it two stars bc the smell is good but the preformance of it was not good. Made my hair look super greacy and frizzy. I paried this with the leave in conditioner she created & it made it even worse! Sadly i will be turning both items. For reference idk what type of curls i have but they are literal ringlets lol
Amazing !!

I have 2c-3a curls and the Isima products defined my curls like I have never seen them before! Very pretty! Although this product is a bit pricey, I will be purchasing again.
