What reviewers say
Reviewers with coils like it as a refreshing mid-week rinse that doesn’t strip, and one calls it thick and non-drying. Others say it doesn’t clean as well as other shampoos, and a reviewer in a hard-water area found it too mild as a chelating wash. One reviewer called it garbage because it smelled pungent after about two weeks, across several bottles. There are only a handful of opinions so far.
Praised for
- Gentle and non-stripping
- Refreshing between washes
- Thick, and doesn’t dry hair
Complaints
- Doesn’t clean as well as others

Great between washes: squeeze it on the roots and rinse. Feels clean and refreshing without stripping.

i love the moisture milk almost nothing leaves my hair as soft sadly i it goes quickly, the pear conditioner is also one of the only conditioner ms that detangle and absorb nicely in my hair, and last i love the ginger cleansing shampoo it’s great for in between washes you just squeeze it throughout your roots and rinse it and it feels so clean and refreshing without stripping definitely recommend as type 4 coils

The Curl Maker gel flakes on my hair, unfortunately. But the ginger shampoo, the moisture milk, and the twisting butter are nice.

Nice, but others clean better.

They have very good consistent products. Fav is the underrated Jansyn deep conditioner, I like it better than Algae renew. The smells are great and most products perform as advertised. My biggest issue is I have basically found replacements I prefer for each one of their products. Curl maker is great but its hold isn’t the best and I replaced it with Uncle Funky’s Daughter which gives me a better hold with similar shine and definition. Their ginger hair rinse was nice but I’ve had ones that do a better job cleaning. Moisture milk is a nice leave in that smells great but I get better results with comparably priced products and if I’m splurging I’d rather go with Olaplex 5. The algae renew just wasn’t giving my hair the moisture it needed but it was a great experience. I have yet to replace the Jansyn deep conditioner though, that stuff is magic. Overall a solid brand they’re just too expensive for what you get.

I like it (thick, doesn't dry out), but it isn't strong enough as a chelating shampoo for my hard water.

Love the gel. Bought the curl milk online and felt duped at how thick it is. Not a milk at all. Also hated the smell, but it must be my nose, it translated as puke... Am using the ginger rinse which is a chelating shampoo. I like using it, thick texture, doesn’t dry out, but my water is too hard so I need something stronger.

Absolute garbage: it starts to smell pungent after about 2 weeks, even across multiple bottles.

I tried the conditioner, leave in conditioner, the curl gel, and the sweet ginger cleansing rinse. They’re all 10/10s for my low porosity 3a/b hair BUT the ginger rinse is absolute garbage. it starts to smell after 2 weeks like really pungent and I’ve bought multiple bottles to give it a chance
