I have 3B-3C curls, my hair is long and has low porosity, and I only wash it every 3-4 days. I bought the 4-step kit and decided to wait until I finished the set to give it a good try until I made a review. For the past 20+ years I have tried most products for curly hair, and my hair does well with all of them, but I have always had to use 4-5 different products to achieve the style I want. Previously, I started with a leave-in conditioner, then a smoothing serum, them a curling cream/styling cream, then a gel or mousse. Sometimes I would use a shining spray for the frizzies as well. When I saw OCOA and the 4-step kit, I was very skeptical that I would only need the styling cream and gel to style my hair. In addition, I figured that the shampoo and conditioner wouldn't last long either. I was wrong! I received my second 4-step order 2 days ago, and I just ran out of the conditioner and styling cream today. I still have some shampoo, at least 4-5 more washes so I was really surprised. The products are very high quality as well, I don't need much shampoo, and my hair feels cleaner than other shampoos that I have used in the past. The conditioner works well and leaves my hair soft and easy to brush and style. I love how I don't need to use a lot of different products and I love how I don't need to use a lot of the OCOA products, so they last longer. It did take some getting used to at first because I used too much styling cream and gel the first time, the second time I didn't use enough of both. After about the 5th time I styled my hair, I knew how much to use and which sections of my hair I need more and sections where I need less. My curls look great, and they look even better 3 or 4 days after I wash it. It took time to get it right, but I could tell from the first wash and style that OCOA products were different, and I was willing to keep trying until I got the results I wanted. Sorry for the long review, I just felt that I needed to explain everything well because curly hair can be hard to manage and style and I am so happy that OCOA got it right! Don't hesitate to try it if you are skeptical, you'll love it! I wish OCOA had trial sizes or travel sizes so that I can try the refresh & hold spray, I haven't tried it yet because I am not sure if it will make my hair too stiff or hard, but I would like to try it. Thanks, OCOA, I love your products!
So glad I finally tried Ocoa! I got the curl cream and gel bundle, and I’m obsessed. At first I was worried the gel would be too crunchy with a hard hold, but it’s the complete opposite, it gives a soft, strong hold with beautiful shine. I’ve gone a full week between washes and there’s no buildup on my like other curly hair products may leave. 10/10 recommend. I can’t wait to try the shampoo and conditioner once I finish what I’m using now!
I purchased the 3 piece set with my teenage daughter in mind. In the last year she has embraced her curls and these Ocoa products bring her hair routine to the next level. I have also been using them and I'm in love also! We love that Latinas are the founders and will definitely be longtime customers! Thank you!
Honestly I’ve been trying to find a new curly hair brand as a Dominican and this one really worked in my curls! I need every Dominican and non Dominican to be on these products cause my hair loved it so much! The whole trio did wonder on my curls just look at my results!
Wow 😍 we love this!! Thank you for trusting OCOA with your curls — it means so much coming from our Dominican community ✨ So happy the trio worked wonders for you!
Leaves my hair soft. There is no perfume on these products. It leaves your hair looking healthy. Love my curls!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! We’re thrilled to hear your curls are feeling fuller, softer, and shinier with OCOA — and that others are noticing the difference too ✨ That makes us so happy!
For supporting growth in the crown area, consistency and scalp care can make a big difference. We recommend using our scalp massager when you cleanse or condition — massaging helps boost circulation to the scalp, which can stimulate hair growth and create a healthy environment for your curls to thrive.
I was pleasantly surprised by your product. I purchased the cream and the gel and the refresher spray. I absolutely love the cream and gel. I am born of dominican parents and I have soft curly hair. It's frizzy and sometimes unruly. Your products keep my hair shiny and soft yet controls the curl. To be honest I didnt like the refresher as it made my hair feel like I product and a bit sticky but the other products are excellent! OH! and the shampoo and conditioner samples were awesome too! My hair was so suave and brilloso after the wash and conditioning. I LOVE IT!
The gel is light but gives a nice hold to my hair. It smells great and doesn't get hard or crunchy like many gels. It really makes my curls pop. Also love the clean ingredients.
Yay! Light hold, bouncy curls, and no crunch—that’s exactly what we were going for. And yes, clean ingredients are our love language. Thank you for sharing your curl happiness with us!'
I could not believe how smooth and well managed are my curls as well as my daughters. I do get alot of people telling me they prefer my hair straight but when these hot weathers come in, curly days are always around. Thank you so much.

My daughter is the one with curly hair and it has been hard to find good products. But she says her hair feels lighter and cleaner. No build up or flakes. I see that her curls are more defined and less frizzy. Over all she loves it!

Love it! Bought the largest pack available. Please keep producing this!!
I saw this company presented on The TODAY Show on TV and was impressed with their company mission and values, so I thought I would give it a try. I have tried so many different hyped up products promising miracle results and have been sorely disappointed, but OCOA has proven even better than expected. OCOA is lightweight, doesn’t have a chemical smell, and makes my curls defined and not frizzy even when I sleep on it and don’t wash my hair a second day. The packaging was cute with wonderful and personal note. OCOA is now my go-to place for hair products. THANK YOU, OCOA!!

I enjoyed the definition it brought back to my curls but it made my hair feel a bit heavy and producty. I definitely needed to wash it the next day but it was good for refreshing to make my hair go one more day.
Hola Joelle,
Thank you for your feedback! It brings us immense joy to learn that our product has breathed new life into your gorgeous curls, offering enhanced definition. For a lighter feel and to prevent buildup, we recommend experimenting with a smaller amount of product. However, we're genuinely sorry to hear about the heavy and overly producty feeling you experienced. We value your insights, and we assure you that we'll consider them in the future.
Thank you for entrusting us with your hair care journey, and we hope to provide you with more amazing hair care soon!

I use this product on wash day and immediately noticed notice a difference. It had a slight hold, shine and volume. My curls were very movable and stay intact. I refreshed my curls on day four in the picture below you can see the beautiful results. This for me is a must add. A definitely recommend this product if you were looking for a light hold with movement and volume.
