Do you ever wonder how some girls get those popping curls? And how they get the curls to last longer than 24 hours without frizzing? Well, I have been searching high and low for products to help me and my clients with this same issue. For a long time I didn't find anything. I would find gel and curling cremes that worked well but did not give the curl any firmness, so it frizzed and fell not many days after. Even when using the diffuser, the curls just were not staying. I deal with a lot of natural hair clients and their hair is often unruly. The gods finally heard my cry. I found a product made by Aunt Jackie's Curls and Coils and it's called Ice Curls Glossy Curling Jelly and it has been a true friend indeed.
First Impressions
The product is very affordable. I went to a local Beauty Supply store and purchased mine for $8.99 but i did see it cheaper at other stores. It is also a good size for the money. As soon as you open the jar, it smells like candy, the fruity kind. The product is very thick and at first glance and feel, i can tell that a little of this product goes a long way. Let's get into how i used the product.
Creating Flawless Ice Curls
The first thing I did was shampoo my client's hair, followed by a deep conditioning. I used my brand of Shampoo, Goo Bye Shampoo, which contains salycilic acid and zinc oxide and is great for the overall health of your hair. Then i deep condition with Hi-Pro-PAC Keratin Protein No Frizz Intense Protein Treatment https://amzn.to/3y4LCNR.
Once I rinse the conditioner, i towel dry and section the hair. Then I apply a generous amount of the gel of small sections of the hair and use my finger to isolate small curls. Some people even use a comb. Use this technique throughout the whole head. It may take an hour or more depending on density and length..

Pros and Cons
There is so many Pros to using this product that I have nothing bad to say. The only downside one may see is the stickiness of the product. Your hands will feel like you dipped them in goo. But it's a part of the process.
Also, you should dry the product after you form the curls. Use a diffuser attachment on your blow dryer or sit underneath a hooded dryer to set the curls in place. It will make them last over a week or more.
This product contains almond oil. So if you have an allergy pertaining to nuts, I would do a patch test to see if the product irritates you before going through your whole head with it.
The End Goal
The curls need to be giving, and they will!! Just follow the easy steps I gave above, and your curls will be amazing! Also be sure to see a hairstylist regularly to keep your ends trimmed and make sure the overall health of your hair is intact.
