Just used this for the first time today. I purchased the products 3 step, and I used the online test the website offers to determine product sequence I should use.

First, I think all essential oils smell gross and that is what these products smell like. Nasty essential oils. While I understand they are made from all natural ingredients, natural smells dirty to me and the smell really ruins the experience for me personally.

I did experience a little crust texture as others have mentioned, however my hair air dried and it was not nearly as crusty as it is with my usual gel and hairspray technique. It was still flexible and soft overall.

I really liked the curl definition and the lack of frizz. I went from loose and weak S waves, to real defined S waves, almost a spiral!
I will be trying the plopping method and blow dry with defuser next. Perhaps I can eliminate the slight crust I experienced by doing so.

Shipping was incredibly fast. 2 day turn around from order to delivery.

When all is said and done I d give this product 3 1/2 stars. I bought the 3 step bundle on sale 40% off. I can honestly say, although I love the curl definition I received, I d never pay full price for the items, primarily due to the essential oil smell.
