Oops, I meant to say the Aussie 3 minute miracle costs around “$3.00″….sorry for the typo.

I have thick curly hair that is very long. My favorite products for my curls is Shine polishing styling mousse. I find that the products work better right after my hair has been washed (duh) and while my hair is still very damp but not dripping. I generously apply the Shine mousse and scrunch it in. Then I finish it off with Aussie Sprunch Hair Spray “flexible” hold. I actually accidentally bought the hair spray thinking it was mousse and when I realized what it was, if figured I’d try it anyway and my curls turned out really smooth and shiny. WAY better than with just the Shine mousse which I’ve used for over 10 years now. I also love Aussie’s Moist Shampoos and conditioners (their large pump sized bottles are $5.00 each) and the Aussie 3 minute Miracle (about $30.00) They mousse and the hair spray both cost under $5.00 each, and I usually clip manufacturer’s coupons for the Aussie products, so it’s pretty cheap.

When I want to splurge a little. My favorite curls products are Tigi Curls Rock leave in moisturizer which I apply first to damp hair (same as I would the mousse) and then I follow it up with the Tigi Curls Rock Curl Booster (same as I would the Aussie hair spray). These products leave my curls soft, frizz free and defined without the “product” look to it. It’s very natural looking. Both products cost around $15.00 each but most salons usually offer sales and specials.

I’m not big on aerosol hairsprays, so I’m always on the look out for a non-aerosol product. I’ve fallen in love with Dove Extra Hold. It smells wonderful, holds well, and doesn’t have a trace of sticky in it.

My hair is pretty frizzy in the summer, but I have found that if I use Aussie 3Minute Miracle Conditioner, my hair requires less product.

I love the Infusium, too!! My sister found it several months ago and I used hers while I was visiting and fell in love. I also love the Garnier products! I use their smoothing milk when I’m straightening my hair sometimes. I’ll have to try the others!

I love the Tresemme Flawless Curls Curl Hydration Lotion Creme- http://www.tresemme.com/curl/products/flawless-curls-curl-hydration.aspx I’ll have to try that hair spray- all the hair sprays I buy end up useless after a few weeks.

It works great with the curling hairdryer I bought on your recommendation.

I would definitely recommend the Tresemme root booster! Not sure about a curl intensifer, but I am really happy with everything Tresemme that I’ve tried, so you might check to see if they have one of those also!

Can anyone else leave a comment to recommend a curl intensifier?

Wow, perfect timing. I just got a style that’s not been makin’ momma happy. I need some new products to help me out. Do you recommend a root booster or a curl intensifier?
