I got all four products and I use them together so it’s hard to distinguish, but I love how my hair looks and feels and all I need is a refresher with water and a little of the leave ins to keep it going. Great stuff!
As a fellow Dominicana, I just knew I needed to try this brand! I used the shampoo and conditioner followed by the curl cream and gel and my curls looked healthy, moisturized, and shiny without being weighed down like other products I’ve tried. I loved the option of getting the free sample sizes as a first time customer. I will definitely be buying full size products.

My hair is just too fine for these products--I am sure they work well for those with thicker/coarser curls, but I need something lighter. Also the fragrance is way too strong--it is supposed to be natural but I am doubtful.

I bought the sample pack before purchasing the full bottle. After using that, I instantly knew I'd buy the full bottle. It was especially good because I was having scalp issues at the time and was worried the shampoo I was using before was too strong for my scalp. So when I used OCOA's shampoo I was so happy the fragrance so light and fresh and the shampoo itself is very lightly clarifying but still effective. I do notice I have to use a bit more product to get a full clean. That's not a complaint, just a note. I figured because there's less harsh chemicals, it takes a little more product to get the clean I'm used to - which is actually good because I was looking for a healthier alternative! And my scalp does feel better from using this product. Also I was really excited to try this because I'm Dominican so finding a great Dominican hair care brand for my curls has been my dream for forever!!
Only thing I'd hope to see in the future is maybe a larger size bottle since I do use a good chuck of current bottle for every wash. But then again, maybe in time my scalp will wean off of needing more product as it gets used to this healthier shampoo <3
Hola Nadia!!

This gel is highly recommended. I shared this product with two other curly hair colleagues and told them they will not regret using it. Your hair feel soft not crunchy but it hold your curl so smoothly. Love it.
Hola Doreen,

Love this curl cream! I've tried similar products from basically every haircare brand at Target, Ulta, and Sephora, but none shape and hydrate my curls like this right here! I use this with Ocoa's curl gel too to maximize hold and softness for my curls. For me, a little goes a long way, so the price is just right too. Will always recommend and repurchase!
The ingredients are clean and it reminds me of a botanical type of gel. Usually those give me that flash dry feeling but this did not. It was moisturizing and very light. It significantly helped with frizz. Paired with the curl cream, it works great. HOWEVER - if you are a strong hold person, this isn't for you. I had to use hair spray because the hold is light but I also used it to refresh and because it is light weight it was perfect for that and to put in my hands when separating the curls. I will continue to use for even slick backs because it doesn't leave a cast but leaves the hair in place. I had it in my hair all week with no flaking both in the hair and on my scalp. Clean and amazing products - to add my hair feels AMAZING after using the whole line. Any curly has to try this, worth the money.
Hola Linette,
Thank you for your detailed feedback! We're glad our lightweight gel worked well for you, providing moisture without any dryness. It's great to hear it helped with frizz and is perfect for refreshing curls and slicking back hair without flakes or a cast. We're happy your hair feels amazing after using our gel! Your recommendation means a lot.

I search high and low for clean products. No companies making claims but legit clean ingredients. This company is on it. Aside from clean ingredients, it's amazing to find a curl product with no coconut anything. There is protein but it's balanced with moisture. My hair curled instantly up with this, and was moisturized the whole week. I live in FL so the humidity and heat can make your hair feel dirty a couple of days after wash day due to the products. Curlies get it, it just feels like their is product in it. Not with this. Not only did my hair stay light and moisturized, but it felt CLEAN. Plus due to the lack of smell of the product itself, my hair kept a very neutral smell. It was the best experience I've had with a curl cream in a very long time. It's expensive but honestly worth it. I didn't even need a leave in. If you like protein, light weight products and non scented - please try it. Way worth the money.
Hola Linette,
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback about our Hydrating Curl Cream. We're thrilled to hear that you appreciate our dedication to clean ingredients and that our product without coconut works so well for your curls. It's fantastic that the protein and moisture balance keeps your hair feeling light and clean.

The second I put this in my hair, it started to curl up. It is thick, so I used water to distribute. It doesn't say how long to leave it in so I used it as a mask for 20 mins with a cap. WOW. My hair loves this conditioner. It is moisturizing and as I mentioned, hair curled instantly even wet which is rare. No scent at all which I love and no negative side effects skin wise. This product legit has clean ingredients, and is well worth the coins. Buying again
Hola Linette,
That's fantastic to hear! We're really glad that our conditioner worked so well for you, making your curls pop and giving them deep moisture right away. It's awesome that you found it effective even when used as a mask. We take pride in our clean ingredients and we're thrilled that you appreciate the scent-free and skin-friendly qualities too. Thanks a lot for your support and for sharing your experience with us!
Warm regards,

I'm very cautious of products in general and was excited when I found this line. A lot of companies say they are clean until you read the ingredients. The ingredients in this, is legit. I have scalp issues and my skin is sensitive in general. I had zero issues with this shampoo. On my hands, scalp and skin. My hair felt clean, but not stripped. It's not hydrating but that's what the conditioner is for. Sincerely, works great. Clean canvas for your hair products, will totally by again.
Hola Linette!!
That's awesome news! We're really happy to hear that our shampoo worked well for you, especially with its clean ingredients that are gentle on your sensitive scalp and skin. It's reassuring that you didn't experience any issues and that your hair felt clean without that stripped feeling. Using the conditioner for hydration sounds like a great routine! Thanks a lot for sharing your experience with us. We can't wait to serve you again soon!

I really enjoy the condtioner and curl cream. I wish the gel had a slightly harder hold, but it was good. Not overly impressed with the shampoo.

The conditioner is great, my curls and my son’s curls have been thirsty lately, and this conditioner has been very helpful!
The only wonky thing is the smell of the conditioner
Hola Taleytha,

We will take this feedback into consideration. Thank you for choosing our product and we hope it continues to meet your hair care needs.

The products are great but the packaging could be better. I’m 63 and don’t have the strength in my hands like I used to and the bottles are so hard to squeeze to get product out.
Hola Debra,
Thank you for your feedback! We are thrilled to hear that you are enjoying the products. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the packaging. We will definitely take your feedback into consideration and hope to continue providing you with great products.

I have 3C texture, this gel is very good I do pair it with a mousse and gives me good results. Leaves a little cast but I do like it bc it makes the style last longer.
I was pleasantly surprised by how well my hair, and my son’s hair did with these products. The shampoo doesn’t lather as well as I am used to to, Burt maybe that’s the point?
Smells good, and leaves hair feeling moisturized!
Hola Taleytha,
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re thrilled to hear that you and your son had such a positive experience with us. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and it’s wonderful to know that our products helped make your hair feel great. We’re always here to ensure you have the best experience possible.
