Someone from the African American forum gave me the ingredients for a knock-off version of Miss Jessie's Curly Pudding. If you would like more info go to http://www.curve-salon.com/shingling101.htm and check out the shingling method for redefining curls. BUt here is what sugaplum from AA hair care forum typed for the knock off version:
<<<I like the curly pudding and buttercreme but they are a bit much on the pocket book considering the amount of hair I have so I made my own. I think it's nice these girls hit on some thing but It's not really any thing new. Take a look for your self. I came up with 3 products that you can buy @ walgreens for under $7 bucks and mix together for a hold b/t the buttercreme and the pudding. If you want to buy Miss Jessies for special occations or something, great, but if you need an every day solution to looking good please try this at least once.
I’ve tried miss Jessie’s and I’ve made my own and mine works just the same, AND YOU CAN GET ALL THE INGREDIENCE @ SALLYS!.
PROCLAIM Curl Activator Gel 32 oz FOR $3
Water Aqua , Glycerin , Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein , Hyaluronic Acid , Panthenol , Oleth-20 , Carbomer , Triethanolamine , Benzophenone-4 , Disodium EDTA , DMDM Hydantoin Fragrance Parfum ,
COCOACARE : cocoa butter stick 1 oz $0.99ea
PROCLAIM : petrolium bees wax 4oz $2.19
HERE IS HOW YOU DO IT.
3 STICKS COCOA BUTTER
1/2 OF JAR OF BEESWAX 2oz
1 32 oz TUB CURL ACTIVATOR
Begin by taking the cocoa butter sticks and placing them in a bowl. Scoop out 1/2 jar of bees wax and place it in the same bowl. Microwave bees wax and cocoa butter until they are liquid. Use an other larger bowl to put the curl activator it. Leave some curl activator inside of the jar for later. Take liquid wax and cocoa butter and pour it into the bowl with the curl activator. Mix vigorously with a spoon. what you will first get while mixing these the two may look like cellulite but be persistant and keep mixing until the mixture looks exactly like vanilla pudding then mix in remander of activator gel in the jar.
If you do not microvave the bees wax well enough it will clump up when you add it to the cold gel activator it may bead up and not allow you to get the perfectly smooth consistancy that you want. If this happens put the whole solution in the microwave for 4 minutes then beging to mix again. after about 2 minutes of mixing add back in the curl activator you left out from before and it should begin to look like pudding.
Apply to wet hair and style using shingling process discribed @ curvesalon.com. or how ever you wish.
This recipe on one average head of hair will last for about 2 months, and costs under 10 dollars, with some bees wax left over to haddle those pesky edge naps. I hope this has been helpful and I hope it works for you.>>
I really want to try it. Miss Jessie's products look interesting and seem to work but I'm not sure I want to throw out 42 bucks for 16oz of hair-butter??? I'm going to try this one in march or over the summer. There salon is in my area so I may go there when school is about to start...
