Paul Mitchell Ultimate Wave

I went to Ulta this past week to pick up some new hair products to try out. They were having a buy two get one free sale on Paul Mitchell products...how could I resist?

The first product I decided to try out was the Paul Mitchell Ultimate Wave, which is in the Curl Collection.

So before I discuss my personal opinion on the product, I will show you how it worked out for me.
After washing my hair, I scrunched the cream-gel into my hair as I do with any other product.

  

I changed my mind about the product a few times throughout the process. At first, I didn't like it. Unlike other hair products, this cream-gel was kind of hard to work through my hair. I can't really explain how it felt, but it was kind of like trying to put gel into dry hair...but my hair wasn't dry. Nevertheless, I kept working it into my hair as best as I can.

After about 20 minutes to half hour, my hair was pretty dry. I did like that my hair was curly, minus most of the frizz. My hair was a bit bigger then I usually like, but the cream-gel did give my hair that crunchy feel that I really like. So from here I kind of liked it.

Fast forward to the next day. I was very curious to see how my hair would be the day after. This is where I finally decided that I really dislike this product! My hair felt so dried out and gross!! I definitely plan on exchanging this product for something else.

This product would probably be best for girls with light wavy hair, that want that fresh off the beach look like this..

Personally, I think that this product being listed under Paul Mitchell's "Curl" category is quite deceiving. I did some deeper research and found other products that are created for actual curly hair, but they are not in the "curl" category. It's really confusing. Either way, I will be exchanging this product tomorrow for one of the other products that I really hope will work better then this.

Please let me know if there are any other products that you think I should try out. Have a great week!
