"I’d love to give try this product and give it a rating, but my package seems to be lost, I sent an email to Deva Curl and am still waiting for a response."
"This one was hard. I want it to get to my scalp to get rid of the buildup in my scalp, but it does not lather so it's really hard to get to the root. Won't buy again."
"THIS REALLY WORKS!!! I get buildup such that when I run my nails over my scalp some “stuff” comes off, even when it is freshly cleaned a bit but more the day after - even when my hair isn’t at all oily. I’ve tried several other products over the years, including corn starch, but nothing worked. This is the only one that worked and it works BEAUTIFULLY."
"I think this product is definitely working well, but I am going to start focusing only on my scalp, as it seems to be extremely drying on my curls. I have tried others recommendations of using my normal shampoo after (Curlbond), but I haven't found that "happy place" yet. It definitely has taken away that product buildup itch though."
"I had purchased a large amount of this product before the rebrand and just tried the new formula. I'm so sad the formula was changed! It used to be a serumlike texture and clarified my hair amazingly without stripping. My curls loved it. Now it lathers a bit and is not as serumlike. I miss the old formula."
"I received this cleanser as a sample packet on an order and I had such high hopes for it. After about a few days of using it, I noticed my hair was starting to fall out and shed more than usual … and I mean a LOT of hair. I ended up throwing the remainder of it away and will never use this again. I will say it did leave my hair feeling clean after some build up, but due to the fact my hair has been falling out, I don’t recommend this product."
"Buildup Buster is great to remove the buildup of product. It leaves my scalp feeling fresh and clean and brings my curls back to life! My curls are beautiful after using it- curlier and softer and my hair actually dries quicker! I highly recommend."
"This build up buster is wonderful. I use it once every two weeks or so to thoroughly cleanse my scalp and get rid of product buildup. It helps to reset my scalp so my curls can continue to flourish and curl properly."
"I have an oily scalp. I only wash my hair a couple times a week and get an itchy scalp from the old oil building up and solidifying. This clears it out well. The only thing I don't care for is how much I have to scrub in and scrub out, because my arms/hands get tired. Definitely use it with conditioner at least every other time you use it."
"Works great, removes hair products and leaves hair feeling super fabulous!"
