A Curl Can Dream Light Oil

From the manufacturer:

The complete answer for the last phase of curly and wavy hair care is Matrix A Curl Can Dream Professional Light Oil for Hair and Scalp. The moisturizing ingredients found in the six most well-liked and well-known health benefits of oils give curls a softer, glossier, and more defined appearance. Jojoba seed oil and coconut fluid give hair shine and smoothness, sunflower oil nourishes curls without making them heavy, and vitamin E gives hair back its elasticity and vitality. The oil works wonders for adding shine, defining curls, and finishing styles. Formula that is vegan and free of animal products and their derivatives.

Background

It all began when I fell head over heels in love with Vieso serum.

Where is Vieso, and where am I with my fourth-degree damaged hair, it would appear? True enough, love will strike out of the blue. For me, the greatest finishing product during my hair craze was a combination of ylang-ylang and honey serums. They give my hair a softer texture than any professional oil could. Even the sharp ends start to resemble kids’. You want to touch your hair all the time.

But, as is typically the case, the product vanishes from sight as soon as you make the decision to use it seriously and persistently.

To be quite honest, I even began to freak out that my beauty product was being discontinued (by the way, has anyone figured out the deeper meanings behind why popular products are always phased out of production?). wrote to Vieso’s and Angel Professional’s authorized Russian Federation distributor. Their response brought relief. Thank goodness they haven’t stopped. However, the delivery will take some time, so please be patient.

But how am I going to survive these months without this otherworldly comfort?

That’s when I discovered a brand-new Matrix light oil for curly hair. Thanks to keratin straightening, my hair is now straight, but that’s not really important. In the same way that a can for straight hair won’t completely smooth out curls, one for curly hair won’t make straight hair wavy. For this reason, I ignored conventions and started thinking about the oil’s composition.

The composition of the oil

Typically, I don’t even consider the makeup of leave-in products to be an analysis. My entire set of expectations is based only on the manufacturer’s claims and reviews. However, since I’m still searching for a specific replacement product, the strategy had to be adjusted. Even though it was only superficial, a composition analysis was required. It’s unfortunate that I just skimmed the ingredients before making a purchase.

Composition:

OLEA EUROPAEA FRUIT OIL / OLIVE FRUIT OIL, SIMMONDSIA CHINENSIS SEED OIL / JOJOBA SEED OIL, COCOS NUCIFERA OIL / COCONUT OIL, PARFUM / FRAGRANCE, TOCOPHEROL, LINALOOL, CITRONELLOL, GERANIOL, BENZYL SALICYLATE, GLYCINE SOJA OIL / SOYBEAN OIL, BENZYL ALCOHOL, CITRAL, CITRIC ACID

Nothing in A Curl Can Dream contains silicone or polyquaternium. completely in line with CGM.

Sunflower oil (emollient, protection from outside factors) is at the top of the table. Sunflower cosmetics don’t appeal to me; in fact, you could call me a Hater. The manufacturer has offended me by including this oil in the composition. I see it as a means of preserving. However, the hair usually views it positively. One of my favorites, Alfaparf – Cristalli Liquidi, is a bestseller that contains sunflower seed oil.

The oil we see next is olive. And food once more. Now that I’ve included the head and thrown this lovely word into the backyard experiment, I realize that the composition’s initial positions haven’t already hinted at anything positive. My hair is thin and damaged. I do not recommend pure oils. And this is their entire mixed drink.

The jojoba oil was followed by the olive. Rich as ever, but already superior to the last two. I once gave my hair a dose of pure jojoba oil. I cannot recall if there was a result, but I also cannot recall anything negative.

Coconut oil comes in sixth place in the composition. We are getting close to the end, so if you haven’t been scared yet, now is the time. Although I am wary of coconut oil in leave-in products, I have noticed that it is frequently used recently.

Soybean oil will come last. It’s not something I know a lot about. promises to give strands more elasticity, softness, and ease of combing. Assume for the moment that we are unaware that it is also food.

Sunflower, olive, coconut, soybean, and jojoba oils, combined with a small amount of emulsifiers and structure-forming agents How is this mixture to your taste? What outcome are you expecting?)

I have no idea how I was able to recognize the similarities between Vieso and Matrix’s compositions. Indeed, both are blended with organic oils. However, Matrix has particular, heavy, and most importantly, their entire bathing regimen, whereas Vieso’s composition consists of light and complementary oils!

A little about the jar itself and its contents

The bottle looks good, but its design isn’t particularly noteworthy. Large black letters in the corporate font, translucent yellow plastic, and that’s it. Nothing fancy, generally.

The oil’s dispenser is something I both like and dislike about it. I refer to it as spitting. In the realm of dispensers, this truly is a camel. I detest it and hold it responsible for everything else, but I adore it for its stylish look.

It produces a horse dose of oil with a standard press; considering its composition, you could even use it to fry a pan of potatoes. You should use extreme caution when dosing the product, even if you have good hand control. With some effort, I can accomplish this. Smooth dispensers are the best.

The oil has an extremely liquid consistency—it is only slightly thicker than water.

Has a salty, bush rose-like scent. Grandmothers like to make jam from this pink. It has a subtle, not overly strong scent. Each product in the A Curl Can Dream line has a distinct scent with varying amounts of distinct notes.

Classic method of application. Effect

We have now arrived at the most fascinating section. To be completely honest, I have no idea what to say. Because one large word adequately describes this oil. This word is CRAP, too.

The manufacturer provides two traditional application techniques: damp and dry hair. Maybe we should start with this.

Application and effect on dry hair

First attempt

I was so excited to try the oil that I ran to buy it right away. First impressions are the most vivid. My initial thoughts were quite positive. Put it this way: repulsively intelligent.

I pressed the dispenser halfway, applying the customary amount of oil to my palm out of habit. I thoroughly warmed it in my hands before carefully and evenly dispersing it over the ends, ten to fifteen centimeters in length. The hair was glossy, crumbly, and smooth prior to using the product. You can assess the "after" outcome for yourself.

I looked in the mirror and was astounded by what I saw. What’s this? It appeared as though my hair had not been washed in a month! Or as though someone had poured a bottle of sunflower oil on it. which is generally not all that far from the reality.

My hair didn’t cooperate well with a braid, so I had to quickly arrange a high bun. Thank heavens, I was home that evening and would not be leaving. Can you imagine how big of a setup it would be if I had to run errands?

That same day, I hardly stopped myself from tossing the jar-toadstool in the garbage. However, I managed to calm down and made the decision to revisit it at a later time.

Attempt two

I was prepared for what I might receive in the end because I was already aware of the effect of a vertiginous greasiness. I gave my hands a tiny dose of oil—literally, just one drop—and gently massaged it in. And my dissatisfaction persisted.

My hair looks messy and breaks into thin, thin strands-rods no matter how hard you try. The only noticeable shine added by the oil was that it made the hair lie more neatly right away after combing. It makes sense because it is genuinely oiled.

Applying oil to dry hair is definitely not the right idea when using Curl Can Dream oil. I can’t imagine having hair that this scoundrel can’t get his hands on. No, but I am aware of it. Afro is going to be alright. In the line’s advertisement, the brand showcases precisely this kind of hair.

Slavic or European hair types shouldn’t use this oil. The only people who will find value in it are those with an afro structure.

Application and effect on damp hair

Naturally, I also tested the oil on my damp hair. Although it was frightening, using it wouldn’t be the same.

I used one drop, just like in my second attempt to tame the product. To reduce the chance of overindulging, I paired A Curl Can Dream (Tashe spray) with a milder leave-in product.

Consequently, I obtained. regular, typical hair. not sliced. not being conspicuous. regular.

The tips were not overly rigid, but they were still fairly soft (slightly sticking out). There’s no question, and there aren’t any little white point camouflages, of which I currently have very few. The ends became increasingly stiff on the second day. Vyeso made them softer.

I’ve been using a hairdryer on a regular basis for the past few months, but lately I’ve been using a styler. Furthermore, I don’t think oil with such a natural composition is appropriate for hot styling at all. He will probably cause more harm than good, in my opinion. How do you feel?

How to use it

I posed this question to myself after attempting the manufacturer’s suggested methods and getting an inadequate outcome.

• In my opinion, oil A Curl Can Dream in the micro dose will do For breakdowncaste(crusts from gel) curly hair. With this option of application, everyone remains in the black: the cast is softly broken (and sometimes it is oh so hard), the hair is nourished and shiny.
• The second option for use, which my stupid head gave birth to, is pre-washing. Not pre-pu, exactly pre-washing. This is when the product is applied to dry hair before washing your hair, not directly during washing on wet. In this case, the oils should nourish the hair without weighing it down, because.. the pre-washing procedure will be followed by thorough cleansing.

Conclusion

Matrix is the creator of an extremely specialized product. Actually, only curly hair should use this can. Furthermore, this oil should work better on curls that are more porous. In my opinion, the manufacturer may have even designed it for Negroid hair initially. It’s unfortunate that the company discreetly said nothing about this.

It is not advised to use a Curl Can Dream oil if any of the following describe you: Either you have thin hair, low porosity, or Perepit is a devoted friend. If your hair is very porous, you might like this product better than others.

Products for curly hair, such as those from Matrix’s A Curl Can Dream line, are often made especially for curls, but they can also have surprisingly positive effects on straight hair. These products can give straight hair more body, manageability, and texture even though they are designed to define and enhance curls. We can determine whether these products are suitable for straight hair types and how they could enhance your regular hair routine by learning more about how they function.

Mask A Curl Can Dream

I would hardly have made it to the mask if the oil had gotten into my hands first. Thankfully, everything transpired as planned. And the mask proved to be very worthwhile. Its increasing popularity in the community is not accidental.

Natasha Rosma_Ry discusses the similarities between the compositions of L’Oreal Professional’s Curl Expression and A Curl Can Dream in this post. I’ll be able to describe (and demonstrate) how similar they are in action very soon.

From the manufacturer:

Professional mask Matrix A Curl Can Dream for curly and wavy hair, with Manuka honey extract, intensively moisturizes, disciplines and nourishes without weighing down. A specialized mask combines the properties of a conditioner, providing easy combing of damp curly hair. The mask also combines the properties of hair balm, helping to restore porous strands after exposure to damaging factors, as well as counteracting the cross -section of the tips of wavy hair. The mask from A Curl Can Dream works from the inside of the hair without weighing it down and perfectly complements the care routine consisting of shampoo, leave-in oil and styling from the Matrix line for curly hair. The mask for curly hair from Matrix intensively restores, disciplines curly hair, increases the elasticity of the curl and makes it even more defined. The mask does not contain silicones and mineral oils. Manuka honey in the composition of A Curl Can Dream care is known for its ability to effectively moisturize and restore the strength of porous hair.

Composition:

AQUA / WATER, BEHENTRIMONIUM CHLORIDE, GLYCERIN, AMODIMETHICONE, CETYL ESTERS, MODIFIED POTATO STARCH, ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL, PARFUM / FRAGRANCE, GLYCINE SOJA OIL / SOYBEAN OIL, PHENOXYETHANOL, TRIDECETH-6, DILAURYL THIODIPROPIONATE, CHLORHEXIDINE DIGLUCONATE, LINALOOL, CETRIMONIUM CHLORIDE, CITRONELLOL, GERANIOL, BENZYL SALICYLATE, MEL EXTRACT / HONEY EXTRACT, CITRIC ACID (F.I.L. C255716/1)

Glycerin, soybean oil, and honey extract—which is proudly listed on the label despite being the penultimate ingredient in the list—are visible from the composition’s usefulness. Producers, refrain from doing this. The composition appears mediocre overall, but we’re not engineers, are we?

Additionally, the mask contains silicone amodimethicone, so it is not appropriate for use with the traditional curly method, despite what marketers claim.

Specifications

The tube is composed of supple yet robust plastic and has a cheery yellow color. I find that the product’s format—a bottle perched atop a "head"—is the most practical because it allows you to manually manipulate the mask’s portion by applying pressure. a hinged lid with a finger-recess hole and a standard-diameter hole beneath it for similar products. It takes little effort to remove the mask from it, and it doesn’t leak.

One of my favorite textures in the mask is the medium-thick cream-gel texture. It has an enveloping yet light feel to it. When allowed to stand, it is dispersed freely throughout the hair and is not absorbed. average consumption with a moderate application.

The entire line has the same scent, as I mentioned before. There is unquestionably unity even though some notes are perceived as stronger than others in different products. I can definitely smell the peony in the mask; the tea rose just muffles it a little. There is very little saltiness. While dry hair only smells vaguely like flowers, the scent is stronger and more defined in the tube. The scent is not strong, fades fast, and is readily overpowered by leave-in care scents.

Mask in action. Result on hair

The mask would have been given the moniker "credit" if I had to use the word "crap" to describe A Curl Can Dream oil.

It is, after all, clear-cut and uncomplicated. doesn’t call for a unique strategy, and after the first use, the full impact of the outcome is evident. It is safe to use this mask repeatedly without experiencing any unpleasant surprises. It has no pretense. It won’t be hard to locate a matching pair. It works with shampoos of any hardness and doesn’t interfere with leave-in care. Because it conditions itself, it doesn’t need conditioner after itself.

It is ultimately complicated. I would say that the proportion of nutrition to hydration is 60:40. This implies that there is no need for you or me to consider how to incorporate it into your care. Simply take and put to use.

It is best to hold for five to fifteen minutes.

The outcome, though, is what matters most. After all, if the hair turns out awful in the end, everything else is irrelevant. And after applying the A Curl Can Dream mask, the hair looks like this.

The material appears smooth, elastic, and whippy. Extremely soft to the touch, with particularly well-softened ends, yet somewhat heavy. The hair does not fall out like baby fluff because the mask acts in a comprehensive manner. They spring when they move, and they gracefully elongate the back and shoulders.

A deep, organic shine. does not go away after two days, and there is softness all the way around.

The length and ends remain smooth and silky until the next wash.

The fact that the ends are in good condition especially pleases me. Not a single spot of white! Additionally, I left the dry strands untreated.

Naturally, though, the entire effect is fleeting. disappears following a shampoo wash. A mask is not a form of therapy. If the hair is already being fed and watered, this will help keep the length healthy. That is, the outcome when combined with stronger products will be. But damaged hair cannot be removed by it alone. And it usually works like this. Not every can needs to be revived.

Conclusion

Disregard the Matrix pearl that contains leave-in oil. Surprisingly, the brand was able to produce a good product this time that will suit most people, if not everyone. It pays for itself in every way.

If you’re looking for a classy mask without going crazy, A Curl Can Dream won’t let you down.

Selecting the correct products for your hair type can change everything, and Matrix’s A Curl Can Dream line presents a compelling choice for people with straight hair. Although these products are mainly meant for curly hair, straight hair can also benefit from them, particularly if you want to add volume or texture.

The A Curl Can Dream line’s nourishing ingredients improve manageability and shine, which is beneficial for straight hair as well. These products are worth taking into consideration if you’re looking to experiment with different looks or if you just want to make your hair healthier.

In the end, even though the A Curl Can Dream line is designed with curls in mind, a range of hair types can benefit from its high-quality ingredients and efficient formulations. You might find a new favorite product for your straight hair by giving them a try.
