Review: Collective Wellbeing Curl Tamer Shampoo and Conditioner

I didn't always have wavy hair; I discovered it in my teens. I'm not sure if it was simply too long for me to notice, or if the texture changed as I grew up. Regardless, I have wavy hair now, and sometimes it gets frizzy when I leave it to its natural texture. Companies such as Collective Wellbeing cater to those with wavy and curly hair, offering special products such as their Curl Tamer conditioner.

Pros:

• Contains organic ingredients
• Conditioner aids in detangling
• Mild scent suitable for men and women
• Texture similar to conventional products
• Recyclable bottle

Cons:

• Conditioner bottle is fairly small

Summary:
This conditioner had a thick texture that made it easy to apply. It helped detangle my hair and had a fragrance that didn't seem too flowery or fruity. This conditioner rated a fairly low 3 on the EWG Skin Deep scale. The size was a modest 8.5 oz, which, for just over $12, seemed a little small for me. I tend to go through a lot of conditioner since I have long hair, and I would've preferred a slightly larger bottle for the price. As I don't have a lot of frizz issues, I didn't see a huge change in the texture of my wavy hair. However, I think this product would likely have a more noticeable effect on hair more curly than mine. I'd like to see a vegan version of this product in the future. If you're in the market for a conditioner for curly hair, this is a gentle option.

Also available on Amazon.com.
