    This is one of few products outside of the Curlsmith brand that I wouldn’t mind using on my curls! It really brings out my natural coils in the most flattering way and was a huge part of my curly routine when I started trying out products on my quest to embrace my natural hair pattern to save it from any further heat damage after 10 straight years of straightening out my hair because I didn’t know my natural hair pattern could be anything outside of a frizzy poofy mess. This product will always hold a special place in my heart and I would not hesitate picking it back up again when I run out of any new staples in my routine. ❤️

    As a hair professional trained in a Redken school and working in a Redken salon, I love this product on my curly girl clients! This is a two-in-one styling product and treatment. It is made for VERY tight curls to help the hair reform into actual curls rather than shrink into dehydrated frizz or "fro" shapes, and not to be used for fine textures or loose curls. It is designed to weigh down the hair---it defines curls by stretching them out, so only use this if you have a curl pattern between 3c-4c. I absolutely LOVE this when used properly on the correct hair type! A LITTLE GOES A LOOOOOOOONG WAY. ;)

    too smelly

    7 years ago
    I’m always looking for a product to control frizz and make my curls look nice. Admittedly, I have a closet full of products that just didn’t live up to the hype- this is not one of them. This product made my curls look amazing with minimal effort- however, the smell is very strong and offputting. This is problematic for a smell sensitive person. I wish Redken offered this in an odorless version as there is no way I can use it with that smell! My search for the perfect product continues!

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    Awful

    8 years ago
    I've loved Redken products and used them for years. The Curvaceous line was a winner for me when it was first introduced, but no more. The older blue Full Swirl was wonderful, giving my curls definition and hold, while fighting frizz. This newer one is like putting water on my hair; I can't even tell I've used any product. This product is a waste of money and a big disappointment. Bye bye, Redken. Looking for a new line that will respect my investment in its product.

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    I have searched for a good product to keep my curls in line for over 20 years and this is it!! I feel like I hit the lottery after using this. I scrunch it through my hair either damp or dry and have great curls all day long that are frizz free and actually have a shape to them. My only gripe is that I go through it so fast, but I'll pay the price for finally being able to love my hair

    PLEASE BRING THE FULL SWIRL CREAM BACK!!

    a year ago
    PLEASE BRING THIS BACK! This was the only product I used that kept my hair looking defined, curly and beautiful! If I had known this was on its way out, I would have bought a hundred of them! Please consider us curly haired customers and bring this back! The alternatives recommended on the Redkin page are nowhere near what the Full Swirl Cream Serum was. Hope this gets heard!

    Yes, I recommend this product.

      Soft curls

      6 years ago
      I was looking for a system for my curls that would leave them soft, moisturized and defined. This styling cream does just that. I use the LOC method (leave in, oil and cream). However, this hydrating cream allows me to skip the leave in and oil and cut my hair time more than half. My curls are so defined and soft. I love the scent and it's a great product.

      No, I do not recommend this product.

      Holy Grail

      8 years ago
      Please never stop making this product. It is the only product I’ve ever used that has given my fine, naturally curly hair perfect waves without making it too curly, weighing it down or making it crunchy. I just put a little in and let my hair air dry and perfection. If I want a little extra hold I add a salt spray. This is my summer go-to hair product.

      Yes, I recommend this product.

      Please bring this product back, it was very popular ans it worked. It was the perfect combination of everything to make beautiful curls that last all day. I haven't found anything close to this product. Perhaps the people who didn't like the scent spoke for the rest of us who did enjoy the scent. I was told consistently how great my hair smelled.

      Yes, I recommend this product.

      I love this serum/cream so much for my naturally wavy hair. My hair normally is too heavy to really style it the way I want, but this stuff makes that possible. It has a great hold, but still allows your hair to feel completely touchable. It smells amazing and definitely lives up to the expectations that I had for it. Would definitely buy it again.

      I just ran out and went to order more. Just devastated to learn this has been discontinued! It held my style for 2-3 days between washes without making my hair feel weighed down with product. A little went a long way. @redken, please bring it back - It seems from the comments, you have plenty of customers that still want it!

      Smells bad

      9 years ago
      The entire line of Curvaceous smells so strong - like a bad mens cologne. The smell is over-powering and does not dissipate. So many have complained about it, yet during your reformulation you kept this over bearing smell. No matter how nice the product may be, I can't use it because the smell is just so off-putting.

      This product works very well. It's great to decrease frizz and when I put it in my wet hair I get some awesome curls! The only thing I don't like about this product is that it smells like men's deodorant or body spray. And it's very strong smelly. I have had many people tell me I smell manly so I have stopped using it.

      I'm Black with very thick coarse hair that mats easily w/ severe shrinkage. Using this product gave me amazing corkscrew twists. I have had non stop compliments and people asking how I did it. I've been using this for about 2 months and I love it!. Do NOT ever change this product. You've already got it perfected.

      Another great redden curvaceous product! Super light on the hair, doesn’t weigh my curls down, but gives them the definition they need and doesn’t make them crunchy. I don’t even diffuse my hair and it still works wonders! I wish it had a little stronger hold, but for what it is it works great !

      I often buy Redken because it's a cheaper salon brand. I think their products are so-so overall but are much better than drugstore hair product brands. The Curvaceous Swirl cream is okay- didn't love it , didn't hate it. I don't have super curly hair more of a wave. Was a bit heavy.

      Thank you for being a consumer of Redken. We appreciate the brand love. You may find Curvaceous Ringlet Lotion to be more lightweight. This anti-frizz lotion reigns in curls with control, soft hold and a shiny, touchable finish.

      This curl-specific styling cream from Redken helps to keep my curls under control and decreases frizz. I apply on wet hair and scrunch through and it helps to hydrate my bleached and curly (the two worst types for dryness) hair. I'll be buying another bottle when this one is done!

      This product was amazing when it was in a blue bottle. I used it every single day. Not sure what you changed or why, but this formula is HORRIBLE. It makes my hair look stringy and greasy.. I usually use it after I shower and it makes my hair look like it hasn't been washed in days! When it was in the blue bottle my hair looked AMAZING. It actually made my naturally wavy hair have a TON of soft, natural, defined looking curls and I wore it every single day and loved it. I cannot even use this product in the new green container. It makes my hair look and feel gross! Stringy, not curly at all, there are absolutely no positives for me on this. Extremely disappointed. I even bought a second bottle just to check. Its so frustrating.. every time I find a product that helps enhance my curls in a soft, natural looking way (which is usually stupidly hard to find), they change the formula or discontinue it! And make follow up products that make hair crunchy, stringy, and greasy! I don't get it. Bring back the blue!!

      No, I do not recommend this product.

      If you have curly/wavy hair this is the best thing after a shower. It does not make your hair super oily but manages it for the whole day. It’s a little thick to go on so be frugal but definitely worth the buy. If you know anyone that could benefit please spread the word!

      There are a ton of things I like about this product. It does not make my hair crunchy, heavy, or itchy. It's keeps the frizz tamed, volume in my curls, and soft. I don't need hairspray either. I've bought it in #Ulta but found that it's the same price to order on #Amazon.

      Gives great hold and dimension and supports bouncy, healthy looking curls. Don’t go too heavy though. The pump is useful for getting the right amount and it smells great. Recently cut my hair into a short pixie but when it’s longer, I’ll be rebuying.
