Reddit reviews DevaCurl No Poo, Conditioning Cleanser 32 oz

Hey man, I've got hair a lot like you. I think you look better without it "tamed". Here is what has been working better for me (note: I'm 34 and still am trying to find my way):

• First, stop using shampoo. If you must, use something non-lathering (http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000NE6QP6). I have found a rinse once or twice a week with no shampoo or conditioner is best.
  
  
• Going with a more natural look is going to require a different product. Go for more of a paste (http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001UBKVH0). First day after a rinse use a fair amount of it and really work it through the ends with your fingers. Next day a little less, third day you probably won't need any.
  
  
• Don't overwork your hair. This is the hardest step, but usually the more you touch your kind of hair the worse it is going to look. Yesterday I literally wore my bed head just running my fingers through the sides and back and it looked fine.
  
  
• Most importantly, just own the new look. You are a good looking guy and a drastic style change is going to solicit comments from people you know. And if you are like me you are probably going to immediately take any feedback the wrong way. Get out of your own head and just own it.

Everyone's hair is different obviously, so what works for me may not work for you but I had a similar problem. I wash my hair about twice a week and use dry shampoo in between washes. There are tons of different brands out there and you just have to find one that works for you. I use Lush no drought dry shampoo. I have waves and it actually makes my waves more manageable. I also use Devacurl no poo cleanser and that has helped me tremendously.

lol that last comment.

Try to find someone who knows how to cut curly hair, ask them about it before you let them touch your hair, if you can - go to someone trained, it may cost more, but it's worth it. http://www.mydevacurl.com/curly_stylist_finder

Also, I use the devacurl no poo. I bought this size bottle early 2014 and still have 3/4 left, I only use it once a week.

It doesn't sound like you've experienced / read much about curly hair care (and that's okay) based on where you're at in the "journey." So, I recommend going to the useful links, read about it, try it out, it's all about experimenting, and then ask questions. IMO, the most important thing is that you don't give up, and just try different things. I have been doing this for years and I still have days when my hair is frizzy due to lack of conditioner, or too oily because I put too much oil or creme in it.

Once you get into the regimen, it's soooo easy, but starting out can seem overwhelming. Start with the conditioner and a gel and go from there. Leave the conditioner in your hair, if your hair is frizzy - add more, if your hair is too weighed down - add less. Put the gel in your hair after you have the conditioner on, scrunch scrunch scrunch, leave it alone until it's dry, then touch.

I'm in Canada :( I really love the Deva curl products, especially no-poo and the hair gel, I think you can get it online:
