The Curl La La is amazing by itself!!! No gel or anything needed!

I had to learn that the hard way BUT sometimes its what the product(s) consist of. The easiest way to tell if a product combo will work or not is mixing everything you intend to put in your hair and rub it in your palms. If it balls up there, it'll do the same in your hair.

Ebony's Curly TV i used the aunt jackies curl quench leave in & then the curl la la and i loved my resulted my curls were soft defined and smelled amaziiinnng all day long! Its crazy that the gel doesnt mix with the other products in the line though. But i tried mixing it in my hand first and it was the best decision i ever made see the clumping on my hand instead of my hair! But the gel does pair with shea moisture Jamaican black castor leave in and the hibiscus curl enhancing smoothie so if u have those id try that out. But from now on im mixing products on my hand first before i put it on my hair lol

You should try the Curl la la by itself. I use it alone and the hold is actually very good. I can get 2-3 days with it.

Yes! That’s how I use it! I do the Quench leave in and then the Curl La La and seal with olive oil and my hair LOVES!!!

I just bought the Aunt Jackies Quench Leave-in conditioner & Curl La La & did a wash-n-go a couple days ago. The 2 products together gave me defined, soft, touchable curls & I love the scent.

The curl la la works great by itself with a twist out or braid out.

I was waiting for her to demonstrate how and in what order she used the products. Dissapointing video

Before you try putting multiple products in your hair you should try mixing it in your hand to see if the products will have buildup. Plus you're not wasting products.

My hair actually loves the curl La LA. I thought it was a dud at first. But I found that it just doesn't work or do well with other products. Only apply to clean hair

Another great video Ebony💖💖 I really enjoy these series that you're doing because they are helpful especially for someone like me who is still learning so thank you💖😍🤗💜

I love love love the don’t shrink gel. I have 4c hair and I use it alone for my wash and goes it gives me “natural looking definition” my curls pop but it doesn’t look over defined when I use eco styler.

Why not just try the Curl La La by itself? It probably would have worked on your hair type by itself.

@sariahlace5944

Exactly

I'm confused and curious about why you think that the shea butter might be the common denominator that's not working for your hair when the Cantu product you used is also called "Cantu Shea Butter"? If the Cantu product also contains shea butter, it's probably something else that's not working for you.

I love the Flax seed one, but it's funny because the curl defining creme from the same line doesn't mesh well with that gel.

When I had my first big chop in 2014, I used the curl la la for my twists! it's good for twists! Your hair is beautiful

yess I've been trying to find that gel because I really want to try it but i can't find it nowhere

Ebony! I just want to tell you thank you, thank you, thank you SO MUCH for sharing this AWESOME combo!My hair ABSOLUTELY LOVES the Cantu Moisturizing Curl Activator Cream and the Aunt Jackie’s Don’t Shrink Elongating Gel! These are now my STAPLE products, HANDS DOWN! My wash n go turned out soooo pretty! I’m gonna be doing them every 7 to 10 days, now. Thanks to you! And thank you for sharing all of your great tips and recommendations! 💖👑

I used the curl la la for a twist out👌🏾but, I had the same results when trying it in conjunction with the mane choice gel. Not good for wash n go's but loved it solo for twist outs.

I loove the don’t shrink gel, i have a 4c low porosity hair and i can use that product by-itself without a moisturizer and my hair won’t even feel dry during the week.

Beautiful results and I love aunt Jackie products ❤❤

I love both the curl la la and the gel separately but I get that same problem when trying to mix them

Ok I have got to try this no shrink gel now. Lets hope I can find it.

You were saying that you had the beading result when using the gel. I did as well when I combined that gel with another product. I'm thinking that they just need to be used separately.

Beautiful results!

I also experience the beading with that combination, but I’ll try the gel with the cantu moisturiser and see how that works

Have you considered using the Curl La La by itself on wet hair instead of combining it with another product? Your hair is so beautiful

I'm so glad I found this video, I went thru the same thing and it also had a fishy smell once I mixed the two along with the chunky white stuff. So annoyed when that happens, especially when you're in a rush. So now if I'm mixing products I put a lil of both on my hands and mix them to test before 7sing them.

Has anyone had a reaction to the curl la la defining custard? I got a really bad rash on the back of my neck and on my face...I did not realise it was caused by the curl la la until I stopped using it... Be careful guys, I find it had a strong scent but I'm not too sure why I reacted so badly to it.. Maybe it's one of the ingredients... Please let me know if anyone else has experienced any reaction to this? I'm fine with the gel though, quite odd really 🤔

Omg you have gorgeous curls love them! I wish mine looked like yours im 4a.

I'm gonna have to try the dont shrink gel cuz the curl la la didn't work for me either. Love your channel!! New subbie😊

I know your channel is primarily hair tutorials, which I love. But may you pretty please do a makeup tutorial or just mention what makeup you wear?

I tried the curl last la by it self and it only lasted one day for my texture. I tried it again as twist out and added the get and that combo work best for my hair.

I use both but the curl lala has to dry a bit first then I add the gel. I should do a vlog for it

The elongating gel is my favorite. It gives shine and definition for me and it does go on really smoothly. My hair doesn't really like the creamy products so I'll pass on the custard for now.

So I literally just did this wash and go and.. THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I was not very surprised however because I tested if the products would mix on my hands (like always) and they did not! Just clumped up together and I was very disappointed. But I continued anyways because I didn't take my time detangling my hair for nothing. Unfortunately, the two products together just did not mix. I did leave some of the parts with the curl la la in it to see if the clumps would dry. Lastly, I decided to just use the elongating curling gel as a one product wash and go. And girl let me tell you it was phenomenal!! I know my wash and go will turn out perfectly. I'm excited. Moral of the story: not all products go well together. Same brand or not. At least not on everyone. Always test it first.

I'm obsessed with curl la la. I first put cantu leave in and then rake out, clump/twist with curl la la. I threw away replaced my shea moisture curl enhancing smoothie with it and that says a lot. SUPER soft, no crunch or feel to it, but still shiny and defined.

My hair does the same thing with combining gels (eco or don't shrink) and creams. I never knew why but it was so awful that I didn't want to go outside. The sad part is I didn't see many naturalista's complain about this beading issue so I thought I was the only one until now. I'm glad you may have discovered the cause. However, I love aunt Jackie's products especially the curl mane tenance. I will try the don't shrink with the Cantu since its been sitting on my shelf for months. Thanks for the series and the info.

The Curl la la has to be used alone... The Flaxseed Gel can be used with anything... That’s just how the product works...

I tried to do that with the eco gel and it started to bead up to!

Your curls are so pretty! 😍

I use the curl la la for two-strand twists and braids . I originally purchased it because it was half the price of my usual custard. The problem is that you can't use it with any other product. You have to use it on fresh washed hair with no additional product. It doesn't play well with others. You might get away with a light oil. Anything more will result in a flaky mess. But that's what I get for trying to be cheap. It did elongate my twists though.

Im upset because i bought the whole line and im starting not to like it the gel didn't give my hair any moisture..so i added oil,and curl lala and in control conditioner to it..i have no idea what my hair likes 😔😔i dont have the funds right now to keep trying product. The only thing i know for sure is good to my hair is the castor oil eco styling gel..but i can't keep using gels 😩😩can i?someone help 😢😢😢

i have used aunt jackies and had the same issue with it also taking for ever to dry in a twist out i looked at "texture my way" in a green tub just like aunt jackies it was a little bit less in price wise but worked so much better with any gel i was able just to spritz my hair and reactivate the product with out clump and all that nasty gunk some products leave bend it kept well until my next wash day try it out if u havent all ready

I use the exact products together and have not experience any problems curls are defined

It was told to me that you cannot use both products together you have to use them along I use the don’t shrink comb twist and the curl la la as two twist and my hair come out amazing

I dont think you're suppose to mix the two i think they're meant to be used on the own.

When you say alone does that mean without a leave in conditioner after washing your hair? I just bought this product for my son and I'm seeing everyone comment saying to not use other products but not sure if that includes leave in 😊

I just finished spending an hour washing, rinsing, and FINE tooth combing a s#*t ton of white flakes out of my hair after trying that Curl La La nonsense. Even if so many of guys are suggesting to only use the C.L.L. alone it still should work with the Flaxseed as it’s from the same line... and if not the it should say on the jar to not layer. Never again.

You should try aunt jackies curl boss gelle its better than the flaxseed gelle.

Nice wng as always. Did you try the Curl La La by itself without gel? It works well for me if I just use it alone. If you're looking for all week hold maybe that won't work, but for 3 - 4 days it's great. I was going to tell you about the mixing your products in your hand or rubbing a small bit on the back of your hand, but I read Kaylan B's comment. :)

I would say, apply to the hair as often as needed. In other words, as long as the hair requires moisture. For some, it usually requires 2-3xs/wk.

Curl la la is better used alone with no gel. I get the white balls when i combine as well but curl la la on its own is great

Ya gotta massage that Aunt Jackie's curl La-La in lol! It'll be beady until it's rubbed in. And that's what makes the hair so soft and moisturized

My hair didn't like Shea butter to much either until detoxing my hair and then my hair began to accept Shea butter

You aren't suppose to use the products together they are meant to do the same thing to your hair but since they are from 2 different lines you are not suppose to use them together. I've never tried don't shrink but curl la la gave me wonders it's so amazing on my hair

A good idea that I'll tell you rn is after washing hair get RAW Shea butter nd apply it on your ends 2 see if its actually the Shea butter you'll actually knw bc you're using the actual Shea butter🖤🖤💋

i love the smell of the in control by Aunt Jackie's

I’m laughing because I had this same disaster a few years ago with the same exact products. It was a nightmare to get rid of the little white beads in my hair. I had to wash at least 4 times. I have learned a couple things from my observation. Most conditioning type products don’t seem to work with gel Because you get the beads but moisturizers seem fine. Lastly, mix the product in palm before deciding to apply.

I went out and bought Aunt Jackie s curl mane tenance curl whip Flaxseed Recipes & Aunt Jackie s don't shrink Flaxseed Recipes Gel. And they won't mix together. I also bought the curl la la, and my gels won't mix with it either. So now, I have to find a gel for the curl la la😒

Never use the two products together. They work really well on their own.

Shea butters and gels dont mix. Which is why ANY product mixed with a gel is going to bead up or flake.

I saw this video aunt Jackie product I went to the hair store and pay 7.99 for the curl boss and 7.99 the lalala I paid 5.99 for the shampoo and conditioner shampoo my hair it cleaned it because it was like feeling like it was kind of rough and tough so I said it was clean in and put some pink oil moisturizer and it's made my hair soft meanwhile I proceeded on putting the Lala and the curl boss up in it and end of my hair was stripped from the waves that is in there I have an afro and my hair feels like it has sand in it oh my God I'm so disappointed in this product so now I'm going to have to rewash my hair because I have 4B hair and so this is not meant for soft be aired I can tell you that because you have to work too hard at it so I guess I will go back to Cantu because I'm very disappointed in Aunt Jackie's product

Why not use the curl la la by itself.That’s how you’re suppose to use it anyway.

I like the coconut one better I don’t like her original like 😩

I'm highly allergic to aunt jackies 😂 it reminds me of knock off miss Jessie's but I think they should reformulate

Anything works on your hair 😥😥

They are too be used alone
