Recently I tried out a sample of Miss Jessie's Curly Buttercreme. In my three years of being natural I have never tried any of their line because I have heard that it's essentially "hype in a jar." After seeing a $58 price tag on a jar of their Curly Buttercreme I said that I would NEVER pay that for a jar of hair product .
But I will try a free sample...LOL!
I was feeling particularly ambitious that evening and decided to flat twist my entire head with it. Applying to damp hair, the first thing I noticed was that it didn't feel greasy to me like I've read in most reviews. It was really creamy...but didn't have a lot of slip. Halfway through my hair I decided I would do single twists in the back, since the back of my hair is so thick that you can't really tell the difference in the pattern...or so I thought!
Once I took the twist down I noticed that the flat twists were frizzing horribly. My hair just will not do right with these things!! I was soooo glad that I didn't do my whole head that way. I retwisted the front into individual twists and allowed it to set overnight..
Below is the final result. The Curly Buttercreme did define the twists but as it dried it was noticably greasey and heavy. I don't particularly care for greasey hair so the Buttercream is a no-go for me (but I wasn't paying $58 anyways, so we already knew that..lol!).
I did try the Curly Meringue and I actually did like it. It was lighter and a lot less greasey but had more slip to it. I would buy it on a BOGO...
