In this video, I’m testing the Mixed Chicks Cream Styler on my fine, chemical-free natural hair and taking you through my two-strand twist out from start to finish. I picked it up at CVS after side-eyeing it for a while (and yes…that CVS sticker on the jar would not let me be great). Even though I’m not mixed, the jar says it’s for kinks, coils, and curly hair, so I decided to give it a fair shot—especially because I’ve been looking for stylers that bring softness and moisture for the cool/cold weather season. I start on freshly washed and conditioned, damp hair, pre-parted the way I wanted my twists to fall, and I use the cream as a one-and-done styler. The cream is thick, and as someone with fine strands, I was really hoping it wouldn’t weigh my hair down or make it limp. It doesn’t have a lot of slip (even with extra water), so keep that in mind during application. After twisting, I sat under my hooded dryer for about 45 minutes—fast drying in a good way—and the takedown was smooth: flexible hold, no crunch, no flakes, and my hair dried elongated without shrinking back up. A few days in, my hair still had shine and that flexible hold, with a few frizzy sections that I honestly think came from my application and my different textures. Overall, I recommend it if you want moisture and a twist out-friendly styler for fall and winter, and I’m planning to revisit it next time paired with the Mixed Chicks leave-in.
