IS NOT YOUR MOTHER'S CURL TALK WORTH THE HYPE? (styling my mom's wavy hair for the first time)

Is the Not Your Mother’s Curl Talk line worth the hype? I am FINALLY reviewing these affordable curly hair products on mine and my mothers hair to share my first impressions, thoughts, and experience. All opinions as always are my own, and these amazing curls are all my mom’s! What do we think about bringing Ponytail mom on the channel for more curl tutorials? Let us know! PS to my fellow Canadians, according to NYM there is no foreseeable date for when these will be available in Canada but stay tuned to see if I think we’re missing out or not!

BTS: the addition of reviewing the line on OUR mom was totally impromptu and Mell thought of it while on vacation because her plan was to test them again (on herself) in the extreme humidity. Mell I LOVE YOU FOR THAT👌🏼

Omg yesss 🙌🏽

Aaahhhhh cute hey seesters 🥰

I loved it!!! Amanda, your editing skills are out of hand. 😍😍😍😍😍

[@jennferrell6118]

Excited to have seen how this line worked for them. I'm in the States and have tried a couple of their products, including the gel and cream in this video though I have not tried the mousse. I wasn't very impressed with the products in my hair either. I began my wavy transition around the beginning of the year. I've had better results with other lines. I never knew my hair was curlier until I was pregnant with my daughter who is now 18. My mother had pin straight hair, but my father's hair is wavy and my grandmother's hair was very curly. When I was a kid, my hair was like my mom's, super straight. Looking back, I think my hair's texture began to change from super straight to wavy back in high school, but I just didn't recognize what my hair was doing. My current profile pic here was just taken last week after 8 months of actually wearing my waves and I love my hair. I began with very short hair. I had a pixie cut over the holidays and have been growing it out since. I would not have lasted without this channel to help me. Thank you

[@rockysmom2697]

I love how you guys ❤️your Mom!

[@GenaMarie]

I totally agree with you on these products! The gel is very drying on me and gives little to no hold. The cream is great but not if your hair is super dry. The mousse, however, is one of my favorites in humidity. I use it with just a cream and not layered with a gel and it works great for volume and strong hold!

[@punchymcpuncherson8785]

Gotta say this whole line is 50/50. The mousse, the deep conditioner mask, the cleansing “oil”(basically a hella light shampoo) and the leave in conditioner spray are the only products worth buying for me. Those products are super nice and work really really well on my hair, but the rest of them are just meh or total trash for me.

[@keylae7412]

How do you feel about the shampoo/conditioner?

If it's you in your pfp then I it will not work as effectively for your hair texture. This line is for the slightly wavy hair. I'm glad it exists because people with 1c -2a hair often find it difficult to find products.

Thank you so much Mell for telling us that even though the NYM hair line did not work for you doesn’t mean it won’t work for other people. I believe that every brand of hair products can work for many different hair types and that it is ok for them to not work on other different hair types. For me my hair feel alright using some of these products but I am glad that you were able to to share your own opinion for people who had the same results as you.

[@bryanacamillebraxton4770]

I love the curl talk mousse! It’s stronger hold than it says and can stand up to some serious humidity. I’ve worn my hair with the cream and mousse outside and the curls survived! 🙌🏾 I also like the deep conditioner in the winter. It’s super moisturizing.

[@hthrb8990]

I want to see MORE mom stylings - her hair is the most like mine in style and type and we’re of similar age. Plus she’s super cute!

[@hayfeverray]

If I need a lazy routine, I use the curl smith air dry cream and the NYM curl talk curl cream together then let air dry. Putting the two together I find helps with the moisture/protein balance that you kinda miss using only the curl talk line.

[@jessicagalyon5840]

Hi, my hair hates protein. I was looking at the curlsmith air dry & the Ulta chick came & recommended the hold me softly balm or the in shower styler. So.. after standing there for 5 min, I decided to not get anything lol. I love the NYM cream but I can’t use it often bc my protein sensitivity. It’s only product w protein so far that I can use at all. Do you find the air dry cream similar? Have you tried the other ones by curlsmith?

[@hayfeverray]

@@jessicagalyon5840 the air dry creme is totally different from the NYM. I find it to be super moisturizing, I has lots of slip so it's great for detailing and also helps the hair feel super soft for me. I've got coarse, bleach damaged, wavy hair and it loves the air dry creme. It's nice because it really doesn't weigh it down. I use the air dry creme and the nym curl defining creme together because I find the nym does define really well, but it doesn't give enough moisture. I've also used the bond curl repair treatment from curl Smith and really love it! I want to try more of their products but haven't gotten my hands on them yet.

[@lindseyfitting8314]

I love that you're so inclusive of all curl types💛 I have a tight wave (2c) and never liked the way it looked growing up (thought it looked messy), even though my sister always tried to convince me to wear it natural. Anyways, I've just recently decided to love it and wear it natural!! Thank you for your positivity and kindness! Keep doing what you're doing, because you are making a difference!!! 💛💛 -Lindsey

I totally agree about the mousse! It definitely stands out from the others. But I do have to say….their deep conditioner provides SOO much moisture for my hair, and a little goes a long way 😍

[@QuiteDistinguished]

I bought the NYM mousse after watching this review and reading the comments, and I'm stunned! I've avoided mousse like the plague since the 90s, but this stuff is a-MAZ-ing!!!! It's not as high hold for me as it seems to be for others, but my low porosity, protein-sensitive waves and curls are loving it. Oh...and when it's been windy and rainy all day and my hair still looks good....you KNOW it's a good product!

[@tanachacon3034]

Thank you for reviewing this. I live in a very dry climate and have dry hair due to that. I have to make sure my products have the right moisture and protein balance for here. My hair does well with curlsmith. I would love to see more videos on what to do when you live in a dry hot environment.

FINALLY someone said this! These products did not work well for my hair at all! Sooo many people were promoting them and giving them 5 star reviews. Thanks for always being so honest 😭💛

[@chadr1856]

You are SO amazing, like just the analysis omg! Last August, I became a HUGE fan of this line, and I was using all the products but by January, I felt that my hair did not feel like how I like - soft, conditioned, flexible and I really feel the cream does not work as well on higher textures. My bsf has a loose wavy type and she personally loves it, and it always gives her gorgeous results, so this really isn't to say it's a bad product, it just will not give everyone the result they want. I feel like the things you said really voiced the experiences I had with the stylers from this range but I can't help but wonder how these products would perform on Amanda's hair though... My personal favorites from Curl Talk are the 3-in-1 conditioner, the leave-in & the mousse, and you might really enjoy those conditioners if you can get a hold of them! Awesome review

[@KattMurr]

The mousse is always the one I gravitate to the most! I live in Texas so I usually just add a leave in (either the sunbum leave in spray (has protein) or the Aussie leave in spray) with the NYMCT mousse, use the NYM naturals heat protectant spray and I hover diffuse. I rarely use the NYMCT gel it just doesn’t work with the Texas humidity, I use one of the glycerin free gels from CURLS which works better for my hair.

[@melissan.martinez-luna3528]

I love this line! I started using it in PR which is a very humid island 😅 I find that it works best when you use the shampoos and 3 in 1 conditioner. I usually do layering with just the cream and the gel and then diffuse. They always come out great. 🥰 But I will say by day 3 I need a refresh.

[@MykenGarciaBeauty]

I have 3c/3b curls. I’ve been using these products for a while. I agree with needing extra hydration with the curl cream and gel which have been my go to products to give me at least a full week of hold and humidity control. However, I have to have to use a leave in or I will only get a max of 3 days before I’m a frizz ball. My go to leave in is Moroccanoil. I also use the tiniest bit of the conditioner as a leave in to switch things up every so often. I do prefer the mousse for humidity control but find it doesn’t give me the hold that I like. I seal/scrunch out cast with Verb Ghost Oil. Btw… it’s because of you that I have fallen in love with the leave in and oil. Thank you for the amazing and extremely thorough content you provide!!

I think it has great hold/definition and makes my hair feel really nice, and I'm in FL where you basically feeling like you're in hell most days of the year. 😂 Also, the deep conditioning masque from this line is wonderful!

I have wavy hair and I just tried the living proof curl cream with the NYM curl talk gel and verb ghost oil for my wash day on Monday morning. It's been raining all week where I am and so far I've been amazed by the results! best wash day since I've started trying to wear my hair natural.

Hi Mel! I just used these in conjunction with the shampoo and 3-1conditiiner. After conditioning, I ran a dime size of the 3-1 through my hair. I followed up with the defining cream, then I added the mousse the way you did and then I scrunched in the gel. I air dried and scrunched out with a drop of bio silk. I loved the results and my curls held up for 3 days ( I sleep in a buff that I tie at the top). I did spritz some water on and then ran a dab of the bio silk using praying hands. I was able to get 3 days out of that wash. I was quite impressed. Thanks for this. Much appreciated

Definitely applying their leave in conditioner spray is a must before applying the styling products. That’s where you get that moisture for balance
