Not Your Mother's Curl Talk Frizz Control Sculpting Gel & Defining Cream

Not Your Mother's Curl Talk Frizz Control Sculpting Gel & Defining Cream is one of the best-value curl styling duos on the market — a two-product system that addresses the two most common curly hair needs simultaneously: hold and definition from the gel, and moisture and softness from the cream.

We tested this on type 2C–3B wavy and curly hair and found the combination highly effective. The defining cream applied to soaking-wet hair provided a moisturizing base that softened curls and reduced frizz, while the sculpting gel applied on top locked in definition and hold without crunch. The result was well-defined, frizz-free curls that lasted through the day. The citrus jasmine scent is fresh and pleasant.

The formula is impressively clean for a drugstore product: free from sulfates, parabens, silicones, alcohol, phthalates, dyes, and gluten. At current pricing for a 2-pack (12 oz total), the value is exceptional — this is one of the most affordable clean curl styling systems available. With over 5,000 reviews averaging 4.5 stars and 8,000+ units sold per month, it has earned its growing reputation in the curly hair community.
