Carol's daughter defining cream
The Carol's daughter defining cream was moisturizing, but after 2 days my 4c hair was completely dried out. My twist out was not long-lasting.

Thee best hands down
I cannot say enough amazing things about Carol’s Daughter shampoo and conditioner! From the very first wash, my hair felt completely transformed—softer, shinier, and healthier than it’s been in years. The scent alone is heavenly—clean, warm, and subtly sweet without being overpowering. It lingers just enough to make you feel fresh and fabulous all day long. What really impressed me is how nourishing the formula is. My hair is naturally textured and tends to be on the drier side, but this duo brought it back to life. The shampoo gently cleanses without stripping my natural oils, and the conditioner? Total magic. It melts into my strands, making detangling a breeze and leaving my hair silky smooth and ultra-hydrated. I’ve tried so many brands over the years, but nothing compares to this. Carol’s Daughter truly understands natural hair care—and it shows in every bottle. Whether you’re dealing with dryness, breakage, or just want that soft, luscious bounce, this is the holy grail. Highly recommend! 💖✨

The Best Coil Stretching Product on the market
This coil stretching product is the holy grail! I have very tight 4C coils with a short boy cut and the only thing that really stretched them out up until this product was Cantù stretching paste, which leaves a slight waxy residue but it works. However, this Carol’s Daughter product does exactly what it says by stretching for 48 hours while also moisturizing. It’s the straightest I’ve been able to get my 4C coils and with the longest hold. Thanks for this!

Smells like pencil shavings
This product was like hair spray. My hair was crunchy. It smells like pencil shavings. I'm disappointed the sacred tiare is no longer available. That was the only product for my hair.

Impressed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a sample ofnthis product not expecting much, but it check all marks at the first trial. This product was really good hydrating my curls. I definetly noticed increase elongation, detangling and less frizz in my curls that lasted for about a day. Unfortunately, in the third day, my curls were already tangled, as expected, but it was not easy to detangled at all. I am not sure if it was the product build up or some others factors. Other second trial, I started noticing some changes in my curls pattern, instead of coily, they were more zig-zaggy. Overall, the product is great creating this hydrated and elongated effect in your curls. I don't have any complains with the smell, I actually like it. However, I believe this product must be washout before retouching. I mean is not a profuct I would use if planning to try several hairstyles/hairdos in a week.

Smooth and shiny curls
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a free sample of this product and absolutely feel in love with it. My hair is always frizzy after I wash and deep condition and the cream definitely defined , smoothed, and elongated my 3B curls. My curls are still elongated on day 3 hair which is rare because I suffer from really bad shrinkage will definitely be purchasing this product

Super Lucious cream
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After first I was thrown off by the fragrance of the cream but as I kept using it really grew on me. I believe the cumin might be what threw me off it was earthy almost but everything else balances it so well it left my hair smelling nice days after.

Even for straight hair!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this so much more than I thought I would. When I saw it advertised more for curly hair I didn't have high expectations, but wow! Makes my hair so Shiney and not sticky like some others I've tried.
