Works well as a weekly wash-day mask for very dry, coarse-texture curls

Ulta verified purchaser, 4-star review

Dried hair out further for at least one very dry/curly user despite the moisturizing claims

Ulta verified purchaser, 1-star review

Thick product is hard to dispense fully from the bottle/container

Ulta verified purchaser, 4-star review

Enhances spiral/curl definition when applied and plopped

Ulta verified purchaser using a sample, wavy/curly hair

Visibly hydrates dry, wavy hair from first use, leaving curls shinier and healthier

Ulta verified purchaser, 5-star review

Sits on top of hair rather than absorbing for some low-porosity curl types, leaving hair feeling dry after rinsing even under a hooded dryer

Reformulation complaint: post-rebrand version feels thinner, smells different, and conditions less deeply than the earlier matcha-butter formula

Ulta verified purchaser and hairstylist, 2-star review

How this page was made

  • This page is assembled from the same researched records the individual product pages render: identity, each ingredient list as printed, each brand's own claims, dated price observations, and review themes written in our researchers' own words. Nothing on it is written per comparison.
  • We do not rank these against each other. Which of them suits you depends on your hair, and that is what the consultation works out.
  • The formula similarity percentage is a stored, precomputed number: position-weighted overlap of the two ingredient lists blended with agreement on the attributes we derive. It measures how alike two formulas are, not how well either works.
  • The value band is a fixed label over two stored numbers: this product’s cost per ounce as a percentile of every product of this type we have priced, each at the size it is most often sold in, and how many products we score as doing the same job cost at least a quarter less per ounce.
  • The "Is this right for you?" panel reads only your own consultation answers, and it applies exactly the filters our recommendation engine applies. It is computed when you load the page and is never stored on it.
  • 8 sources were consulted across the products on this page.
  • Ingredient order tells you relative amount only above roughly 1%. Prices are observations on the dates shown and change without notice. We do not sell these products and take no placement fees.
  • This is cosmetic information, not medical advice, and nothing here diagnoses or treats a health condition.
