Using Crown Affair has been an upgrade in my routine. I’ve been using the Volumizing Shampoo and the Hydrating Conditioner, and the combo does what it says—my hair feels clean, light, soft and nourished. I liked being able to build my own bundle of their products (I actually did a set of 4 and a set of 3 to try a wide range). From the core set to the masks and serums, the textures are lightweight and moisturizing with clean scents (and ingredients). The styling products work well in tandem to keep my often chaotic hair at bay.
I have been wanting to try this brand for awhile. I love the brand's overall aesthetic, focus on building slow rituals, clean ingredients, and quality tools. I love how the website exudes these qualities and overall, I knew I would feel good about my purchase no matter what (although a bit pricey). Also, the packaging/unboxing was amazing and continued this experience.
The comb No. 002: I have curly 3b hair that's on the longer side and this is a perfect travel comb that is made from beautiful quality materials. If you like to quickly rake through your hair, and damage it (no shade, I do that frequently), then this isn't the comb for you. It takes time, but that's the point imo. so that you're conscious about what you're doing. It comes in a cute canvas pouch as well.
Hydrating conditioner: It smells SO good. I love smelling it as I'm washing my hair, and seems to keep my finer curly hair hydrated without weighing it down. I also love the way the top twists open/closed. Much easier when in the shower than other brands, and I always know it's ACTUALLY closed.
Texturizing air dry mousse: okay, I just don't think I have the right hair for this. My hair for sure doesn't get weighed down, but used on its own with a bit of hair oil, my hair feels a bit tacky and frizzy. But it for sure smells nice, and doesn't seem to leave any residue. My least favorite product overall (for my hair personally)
I'm beyond obsessed with everything I've gotten from this brand. I will absolutely continue to purchase from them and I'm looking forward to seeing the innovative products that are released next! I use the Volumizing Shampoo and the Hydrating Conditioner in the shower. The shampoo makes my hair feel so clean and adds volume without making it frizzy. The conditioner does as good of a job as some of the hair masks l've used before. I love using The Towel right out of the shower - it's big enough to cover all of my hair and thick enough to really make a difference in the drying process. After letting my hair sit in the towel for about 15-30 minutes, I like to run some of the Leave-In Conditioner through my hair with my hands. It makes my hair feel so soft without weighing it down like many other leave-ins. I then like to do the same with the Air Dry Mousse and scrunch my ends a bit. It adds texture without adding frizz. This is a game changer for those of us who don't like using heat. It takes a lot for products to become part of my regular routine, and ALL of the products l've tried have impressed me. Thank you, Crown Affair!
