NEW Curlsmith Bond Curl VS Olaplex No.3 | Strengthen and Protect your Natural Hair against Damage

[@KimberlyCherrell]

How Often Should You Use The Bond Curl Rehab Salve? This will depend on your hair's porosity. To find this out, spray some water on a strand of dry, clean, product-free hair. High Porosity: The water will instantly absorb inside the hair. Use every 2-3 wash days for at least 30 minutes Medium Porosity: The water will form droplets on the surface of the hair and then absorb inside. Use every 3-4 wash days for at least 20 minutes Low Porosity: The water will form droplets on the surface of the hair, without absorbing. Use every 4-5 wash days for at least 15 minutes

What if I have bad heat damage ?

[@meishamcdaniel4670]

I tried the bonding salve first, then the Redken acid ice bonding shampoo with the curlsmith multi tasking conditioner. Over the past months I’ve spent so much money trying to repair heat damage. Curlsmith and Redken did it for me.

[@ciaraalyse5382]

Calling all low porosity girls, these are two totally different products one has protein and the other doesn’t. Our hair can’t handle too much protein so I’d definitely recommend olaplex No.3 for a weekly treatment and the curlsmith bond as a monthly treatment

[@fkdjdjcmckdjdjf3728]

I’m low porosity and can use protein pretty much daily. Just depends on the hair, what type of protein, how it’s used not necessarily the porosity.

[@Icyjessy1]

@@gigglemug9268 Exactly! This is how some low porosity girls would never use protein despite experiencing breakage because the 'rules' told them they couldn't

[@audreyodwuor6929]

Curlsmith is a protein treatment + conditioner while olaplex is a bonding treatment not meant to condition the hair (look at the ingredients). Curlsmith will have effects you can see and feel because it’s a conditioner and olaplex makes changes on a molecular level that you wouldn’t be able to see without a microscope - you definitely can’t see the hair bonding, which is totally different from clumping. Comparing the two as equals doesn’t really make sense so hopefully people consider this too and not just the info presented in this video!

Agreed that this one feels a bit misleading to me. I also feel skeptical about the bangs comparison since her hair clips are in different spots and the part isn't centered.

The curl smith side looks however these are two very different products. Curlsmith is a protein treatment while olaplex is not.

Hi Fifi 👋🏾... This particular CurlSmith product is a bonding treatment like the Oleplex No3 she’s comparing it to. It’s not a protein treatment they’re both bonding treatments.

Both CurlSmith bond treatment and Olaplex bond treatment have protein in them but not enough to be considered a protein treatment.

Hello! Can I ask how your hair has received the No.0 and No.3? I have just ordered No.0 and i have No.3. I think my hair has been breaking more so I took the leap to try the Olaplex. Did it help breakage?

Hey!! For my hair it definitely helps with breakage, I have a lot less. My hair before Olaplex wasn’t damaged, for the most part it was healthy but Olaplex put it over the top as far as health.

[@tmariek2]

At 2:00 you mention salt bonds being broken by pH imbalance. How does protein/moisture balance affect pH? pH is referring to if something is alkaline or acidic. Did you misunderstand what pH means?

[@KimberlyCherrell]

I think you may be confused based on how my editor edited that part. I switched from reading the packaging for Curlsmith to explaining moisture/ protein balance. So to answer your question at the end, nope I know exactly what it means to balance your pH. I just talk fast and sometimes my editor won’t catch that those are different topics that should have been separated more.

Olaplex treatments 1 and 2 are where it’s at. But I believe you can only get that done at salon. Thankfully I’m licensed so I never noticed it was salon only. The no 3 doesn’t seem as potent making the other stuff you used a better option for at home

[@lavonaedwards3864]

Yes olaplex 3 is the take home weaker maintenance product that you use in between salon visits until your stylist can give you 1&2. Olaplex 3 doesn’t compare to the 1&2 combination. The curl smith is a good option for people with no license because they can’t buy 1&2 off the shelf and Amazon sells counterfeit 1&2. I have olaplex 1&2 and love them but will look at curl smith’s bond product

[@cfoster6804]

You are right. My stylist gave me the number 1 and 2 treatment in the salon and honestly I'm already over 0 and 3 before even trying them. I need the strong stuff. I took a chance on ebay and bought a 1 and 2 kit. I've been on ebay for 20 years so I've learned to read listings and seller feedback and pretty sure I've found a couple trustworthy licensed stylists reselling on there.

[@shannonmorris8384]

Curlsmith actually replenishes protein so shouldn't be used often just for styling. Too much protein will wreck a low porosity head of hair if you do it too often. However that first protein treatment should be super helpful. Olaplex would be a good weekly or bi-weekly treatment (while Curlsmith would be more of once every 6 weeks to 2 months.

How Often Should You Use The Bond Curl Rehab Salve? This will depend on your hair's porosity. To find this out, spray some water on a strand of dry, clean, product-free hair. High Porosity: The water will instantly absorb inside the hair. Use every 2-3 wash days for at least 30 minutes Medium Porosity: The water will form droplets on the surface of the hair and then absorb inside.

Your skin looks so good!

[@KimberlyCherrell]

Thank you so much!!!!

[@Itslyrika]

Never tried the olapex but I bought the curlsmith one and I love how manageable it made my hair.

[@naturalniree]

I will be trying this product out soon & this video was great now I know what to expect! 🙌🏾 & your hair has grown so much😍😍

[@Kynrox101]

twoooo completely different products olaplex gang 4 life lmao

[@ladynefertitibk]

Beautiful results

[@vic827]

Girl I’m so glad you made this video 👏🏾

[@nicoleshaundra8677]

So is it similar to protein

[@bena347]

Thank you for doing this video i was just about to buy the olapex but now I will buy the curlsmith product. I was curious if it would help with my hair. I do protein treatments to balance my moisturizing treatments.

[@jendayimcmillian9615]

Omg your results!😲 Absolutely gorgeous I can't wait to try this product🥰

[@pomegranateemporium]

Please help me girl - so I'm in moisture overload I saw that you used the aphogee protein treatment - do you reckon I can use the curlsmith treatment to correct this? Or should I use the aphogee to "reset" and the curlsmith to maintain?? 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

What song is this??😍

[@rachelakewushola4199]

Awesome video sis ❤ Please try Olaplex No 0 with No 3 next time! It's a primer for No 3 and enables the product to work 68% better than using No 3 alone! In addition, try using the shampoo & conditioner for a fair review No 4 & No 5. Don't forget Olaplex No 6. Then I will consider it a fair review! However, I will be trying Curl Smith in the near future! Happy New Year sis ❤

Was hoping someone pointed out that No. 0 wasn't used.

[@rachelakewushola4199]

@@MissDaniiOliver Exactly!

[@AfroPuff5159]

Hi, do you reccomend using No 0 with No3. I just bought No3 and hoping it'll help my type 4 hair recover from being in box braids

[@rachelakewushola4199]

@@AfroPuff5159 Yes I do recommend No 0! Yes I'm a happy customer with low porosity type 4a-4b fine strands, and no I don't work for Olaplex ❤

[@19GENESE13]

@@AfroPuff5159 yup. It's how it was intended to be used.

[@Teannaschannel]

I’m looking forward to testing this out and recording it too 😍

[@ms-traci]

Dang. Just ordered Olaplex 3 from Nordstrom's. Definitely be at Ulta this week to pick up a few Curlsmith products.

[@leoskiss3390]

You can use both just use them every other wash day

[@brooklyn230523]

What hair tie did you use?

[@lizz863]

I saw this curl smith product at ulta two days ago so glad i purchased it because i feel like its going to be sold out asap! Watch three videos in the past two hours on this !

[@theresawilks9426]

Happy New Year to you too Fren😁👍❤

[@sheenatheresa3945]

I’m literally sitting here watching this video while already pre pooing with Aloe Vera plant and a mixed oil blend 😭😭😭

[@saabriagreene8876]

This is really your niche. I learn about products I would’ve never known I needed. Just colored my hair, was going to buy Olaplex

[@TBella1226]

CurlSmith looks to be that girl!!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Happy New Year frennn!!!! 🎊🎉🎊🎉

[@nhaomiedouyon2392]

I tend to clarify with APV and water. If I put this in my regimen would I do this after I clarify? Can this be done on clean hair?

[@happyandblessed9753]

Are there any adverse effects if you stop using either product?

[@allthingsbeautiful_]

What’s the song you’re playing as you wash it out?

[@ItsLeyaMarie]

Heyyyyyyyy frennnnnnn been off KZbin for a while having another kid and all. But I'm back for all the kimchegang vids

[@KimberlyCherrell]

Omg CONGRATULATIONS 🎉!!! What’s our new KimCheGang minimemeber’s name? 🥰🥰

[@ItsLeyaMarie]

@@KimberlyCherrell thank you so much! And little miss Serenity ❤

[@michd5471]

Cool. What is that soulful song?

[@ayanadixon4763]

How much did this cost in comparison to 28 bucks for olaplex?

[@briannawoodard8546]

It’s $29 so only a dollar more but you get better ingredients and more product

[@Createonfate]

Happy New Year Fren!!! 🥳🥳

[@stephtom1607]

Would like to try but too pricey 😕😕😕 . The curlsmith side looks better
