I tried the Aunt Jackie's Curl La La Defining Curl Custard when I was transitioning and after I BC'd.
It smells like sweetness. You REALLY have to keep the jar away from kids because they might just eat it. It just smells delicious..
It has a thick consistency, very spot on like a pudding.
I don't get white residue from using it.
When I was in transition, it didn't really work well to give me the curls I wanted. My hair was in two different textures.
Using it after my BC has been good so far. My curls are very tight and coilly (like a spring). I apply the Aunt Jackie's Curl La La Defining Curl Custard while my hair is damp (mostly wet) and I let it dry throughout the day as I go about my day. I make sure I work the pudding in all over my hair. When the days are warm, it dries quickly. More like a wash & go activity. Once my hair dries, it does not look weighed down by the product.
I love the spring-like curl definition that I get. it's more of a curl enhancer in this case for me since my coils already come looking like springs.
My hair stays moisturized for about 3 or so days. All I do on day 2 and 3 is sprits my hair with water and my cute culs come up popping as my hair dries. My hair remains soft to touch (a little bit sticky) and smells delicious.
I find there's hardly much need for reapplication on day 2 and 3.

This product has become a staple in my hair routine! It works well on my natural type 4 hair. I use it for my twist outs and it gives me unbelievable curl definition. I did a twist out without this product before and it came out frizzy and definition-less. If you're looking for maximum definition and hydration, this product is the answer! It also smells great and gives great slip when being applied to dry hair. The only downfall about this product would be that it takes time to dry on twisted hair, therefore you would need to be sure that your hair is dry being unraveling your twists and braids. It also works wonders for wash and go's as it provides the curl definition that all wash n go's need to have and that is defined, rocking curls!
I definitely recommend that people give this product and try, as first I thought it wouldn't work on my Type 4 hair but after the second time i tried it, I really saw the benefits it provided for my hair.
