My fine and fluffy curly hair was in need of a helping hand. I was keen to try the new Texture and Curls collection as I have found Alterna’s products to be good.
Positives
Silicone-free and vegan-friendly.
All products had a subtle fragrance.
Begin Again Curl Cleanser (£22.95, alternadirect.co.uk) produced a light lather and was gentle.
Begin Again Curl Conditioner (£22.95) did a good job of moisturising and leaving my hair tangle-free. It also worked well on my hair as a leave-in conditioner. Use a small amount, rub it into your hands, apply to the hair and then style.
More Butter Masque (£27.85) was rich and nourishing. It left my locks silky soft and helped to reduce frizz. This was my favourite product.
My Way Cool Defining Gel (£20.90) was ideal to calm flyaways.
Not so positive
Loosen Up Curl Elongator (£20.90) was not rich enough for my hair. I had to mix it with a small amount of the conditioner. I used a hairdryer and was left with loose curls and waves. Next day I reactivated it using water and added some more of the mixture.
