My hair is short, colored and coily. Due to 2 recent hip replacements I’ve been having to do it myself at home more. CurlMix is easy and my hair looks good. I’m excited to try other products. I own almost all the leave ins at this point.

Did an all Curlmix month (December 2024) and the rest was history. I saw my hair flourish, curls felt great and moisturized. Hair just thrived. I started with Curlmix back in 2019, lost my way for a bit but came back and yeah I’m here to stay. Products are just amazing. ❤️

Curlmix has done it again. This was the only styler I used for my two-strand twist-out. My hair was so moisturized and my twists were so defined. Definitely a win-win for me

Vanilla Bean Defining Curl Cream – Hydration & Definition for Curls That Shine
I have very low porosity 4c hair (if there was such a thing as ultra low porosity 4d hair, that would be me). This Vanilla Bean Curl Cream is THE ONLY curl cream I have used in my 10+ years of being natural that has actually penetrated my strands and imparted actual moisture rather than just sitting on top and drying out my hair. The scent is just right, too; subtle, pleasant (like real, actual vanilla) and not sickly-sweet at all. (The Honey Hydration is too strong for me.) It will be beyond disappointing if this product doesn’t come back.

The texture and feel of this moisturizer is amazing. My hair can be frizzy and this helps slick it down while keeping it hydrated.

I love the vanilla bean scent. Scent is key for my hair products. It keeps my hair well-moisturized. I was prompted to buy a second one as I was only going to buy one to try it out. I'm so glad that I decided to get the second one, I love it and will buy more soon.

MEET THE FOUNDER
I created CurlMix to serve curly women who wanted clean, natural, safe, and effective hair products.
I wanted to create a system that was so easy and effective, that every woman could do a Wash and Go.
Even for women with 4C hair like me and ESPECIALLY GRAY HAIR.
1997
When I was 6 years old, my grandmother relaxed my hair, against my mother's request. My mother was so upset, and that led to 13 years of relaxers to acheive "straight hair" so I could feel "beauitful" and fit in at school.
2010
Sophomore year in college, I was inspired to go natural by my mother and several girls wearing their afros on campus. That semester, I cut all of my hair off in my dorm room.
2017
I wanted to help other women embrace and celebrate their natural beauty, the same way my mother did for me. We launched a 4 step system to help you master your curls.
Yes, we will only provide natural and/or organic ingredients. We keep our labels simple, so you can understand exactly what is going on your hair & body. All ingredient information is on each individual product page.
No, the water-based products include a preservative. This includes all of our products except any pure oil formulas. Putting them in the refrigerator does help them last longer but is not required. Unopened, they have a 2 year shelf life and after it is opened, 1 year.
Ingredients may have been derived from corn, soy, wheat, and/or nut products. They may have also been produced in a facility that makes those products.
We recommend conducting an "Area/Patch Test" as described below.
Area/Patch Test: This test allows you to test a small area of your skin for 24 hours before applying the treatment to a larger area. We recommend rubbing the CurlMix mixture on the skin near your elbow, covering it with a bandage for 24 hours and if there is no allergic response (redness, itchiness,swelling) then apply the treatment as directed in the instructions. If you have an allergic reaction, we do not recommend the use of CurlMix and suggest that you seek a medical professional’s consultation.
Optiphen PLUS
We use a safe and natural preservative called Optiphen PLUS. It is a paraben and formaldehyde-free preservative as well. It's ideal for preserving natural products that are used on the hair and skin. It offers both safe & effective protection against bacteria, yeast and mold growth, making products last longer and safer to use.
Approximately 2 years if unopened. Once opened, store in a cool dry place. It can last one year once opened.
Always review your products for changes in color, texture, or smell before you use them. If you are worried, reach out to customer service with any questions or concerns, anytime! Our email is info@curlmix.com.
Yes, they are.
We want to be conscious of our planet, our people, and your pocketbook.
