Full Collection Comparison
Coconut is Everything
Coconut Is Everything was our very first collection and was designed to have at least one product for every curl type. From wash day staples (which includes our best selling Coconut Clarifying Cleanser and Coconut Cream Conditioner) to styling options that ranged from lightweight to heavy, there was something for everyone. We always knew this collection wouldn't be the solution to every curl need, but our goal was to create a starting set of products with go-to staples.
Now that our product lines are fully launched, Coconut Is Everything features our most lightweight products generally speaking in comparison to the others. Those with low to normal porosity or finer hair types tend to enjoy using these styling products more.
Coconut Oil is featured throughout this entire collection whether it's in solid form or liquid form.
This powerful ingredient is a staple in the natural haircare world for a reason. It has anti-inflammatory, anti-itching, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties - just to name a few. It's also packed with fatty acids and a variety of vitamins to nourish your hair all the way from your scalp to the ends of your follicles.
Butter'd Up
Soon after our first collection, we launched our Butter'd Up collection with the goal to fill in any product gaps for those with thicker, tighter and more thirsty curls. This collection features wash day and styling products with more moisture, more richness and more hold for those who need it. Our Butter Jelly (Medium Hold) and Butter Styling Gel (Max Hold) are two of our best selling styling products amongst our community, including our online store, professional stylists/salons, and beauty supply stores.
Those with normal to high porosity or thicker hair types, tend to enjoy and benefit from these products the most.
Shea Nut is featured throughout this entire collection whether it's in butter form or liquid oil form.
This dynamic ingredient is another staple in the natural haircare world for a reason. It is a rich natural emollient which means it softens and smooths the hair follicle by coating it with lots of moisture. It's also rich in fatty acids and a variety of vitamins to nourish your hair from scalp to the ends of your follicles.
For Men
Our For Men collection was always something we wanted to offer at CurlShoppe simply to give men thoughtful products that they can confidently incorporate into their hair/beard care routines. A lot of the haircare products are very comparable to counterparts found in the Butter'd Up collection, but with a unique ingredient and scent profile. Our beard care products are also quite popular and feature a softer and more subtle scent compared to others on the market. We found beard care products tend to come in a standardized "cologne" scent and wanted to offer our products from a different perspective. (Actual product development question we asked: What would WE want to smell on our significant other's beard?)
This collection is simplified to styling products only, whether that's the hair on your head or the hair growing on your face. Those looking for a simple haircare routine that doesn't lack in moisture or performance, but provides a more masculine touch tend to gravitate to this collection more.
Apricot Oil is featured throughout this entire collection in the liquid oil form.
This lightweight yet moisturizing ingredient is a hidden gem in the natural haircare world. It naturally provides a gloss and shine to the hair while also softening the hair follicle. It also has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits which means it not only soothes the scalp and hair, but also helps protect it from harsh outside elements.
For Kids
Our latest collection, For Kids, was designed specifically for those curly headed little ones in your life. We wanted to take a very simplified approach ingredient wise when developing these products while still making sure that they weren't lacking in moisture or performance. This collection also features two products that are unique to themselves which is the Detangling Spray and the Curl Cream (think of it as a moisturizing cream and gel in one).
This collection is also simplified to styling products only, and as your little ones grow we encourage you to slowly start introducing products found in our other main collections. Those looking for a simple haircare routine that doesn't lack in moisture or performance, but provides a more gentle touch tend to gravitate to this collection more.
Botanical Extracts are featured throughout this entire collection such as Chamomile or Cucumber Peel (or both!).
Both of these extracts are highly regarded for their natural soothing and cooling abilities which provide great benefit to the scalp. They also both contain anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which means they not only soothe the scalp and hair, but also help protect it from harsh outside elements.
Final Thoughts
When designing our collections it was our goal to make sure we offered something for every curl, porosity, and texture type. Although each collection was designed to work together, we always encourage our community members to mix and match across collections until they find their perfect regime.
