Also, thanks for sharing this review! One of the things that keeps me coming back to your channel is the fact that you take your followers' trust very seriously; we can have faith in the fact that you would never agree to do a sponsored video for a product you haven't yourself really enjoyed using, & would probs recommend at some future date even without the partnership of the company. CG beaKZitem can be a bit of a dungeon crawl when it comes to spotting the shills among the authentic recommendations (which is why I personally never buy anything being boosted without first checking Influenster, Makeup Alley, and the consumer reviews on its Amazon listing, to get the real tea), but I always know that if _you_ are suggesting a product to your viewers, then you've tried it, you unequivocally liked it, and you'll probably personally use it again at some point - or suggest it to a client, if you think it's great quality but for different hair needs than your own. Keep fighting the good fight. ❤❤❤

Oh my goodness, friend. Your words mean more to me than you know. I do feel sponsored posts have reached a saturation point on social, though, which is why I'm opting to really limit mine, even if it's a product I do genuinely like. Optics do matter, even if they're not necessarily accurate; there are a lot of fakers out there who have created sort of an insincerity the rest of us have to fight against, but I'm not sure it's worth it. So, most of my future product reviews will be un-sponsored because Lawd that's just easier and less stressful anyway! Thank you for your support and love!

This product line was my first experience coming back into my natural curly/wavy hair, last November. To date, 6 months, I’ve tried a few other products and keep coming back to TreLux! I absolutely LOVE hi-definition and ReFlex. They smell AMAZING and they work so well on my hair. I have 2c/3a hair curly and use either both or on their own. I absolutely love those two products. I get them from Walgreen’s. Great review by the way so thorough. Thank you.

YEP. The product lines that live between drugstore and salon are typically pretty darn good--they're just smaller, so they can't get the shelf space the big guys can, and can't get the attention of salons (and can't charge salon prices). Which is why you'll find most of them online. Take advantage!! TréLuxe, MopTop, Jessicurl, Bounce Curl, Rizos Curls, CurlMix, etc.....they're all great, and priced well!

😂😂😂 I love the description you had about coarse hair cuz that hits the mark 🤣 I have wavy/curly hair that is a mix of medium and coarse. I’ve been eyeing TreLuxe as a brand to try so I love how in depth you get with the ingredients when you do reviews. I’m trying to use up all my current products before I try anything new but TreLuxe is at the top of my list especially after your review. I just have too much clutter and too many products in my bathroom at the moment. My all time fave Custard is the Kinky Curly Custard but it flakes on me so I didn’t repurchase when I finished the tub 😭. I haven’t heard a lot of folks talk as in depth about the texture of the TreLuxe gel so you comparing it to a Custard has me a little bit more excited about trying it for myself. I can’t wait!

At the beginning of my journey, when my hair was just super dehydrated, glycerin was a problem for me in the 60-70-degree summer dewpoints in Texas. 3+years in, my hair is pretty well hydrated from the inside out, so glycerin doesn't have the reactive effects it did early on. Summer frizz for you could mean a few things: Deep condition more often; protein treat every other week; and lay off glycerin for the season, and bring it back in the fall. Then try glycerin again next year. Time and consistency make the biggest differences.

Thanks for the advice!!! I deep condition every week and have a pretty good bead on my moisture/protein needs. I think the wild card for me is growing out past highlighted sections that tend to be extra dry. I am about 3 years in and am used to switching products between seasons. I may give glycerin a try just to see how my hair does at this point. Thanks again!

Everyone feels that way in the beginning. Have you seen some of my older videos? I tried everything under the sun, and every bit of that was out of my own pocket! (Don't tell husband). But I learned a LOT about products, formulation, patterns, my own hair, application methods, styling techniques, etc.That said, I think trying out lots of products is an investment in your own knowledge base, if you're into that sort of thing, and you can do it without putting yourself in a financial bind. But once you find something you like, I'm always in favor of sticking with that for at least a while, using it up, and trying something new after that if you feel the itch. And save your receipts! I always return things if they absolutely don't work for me.
