Being a Joomla component, JomSocial does not have its own user object and many users can't figure out why sometimes registration and login form lead to native Joomla forms.
This can cause users to be out of the sync which usually reflects with missing custom profile fields, or avatars.
You can easily access these pages via these links:

  • For login page
http://yourdomain.name/index.php?option=com_users&view=login

If you visit your site using this link, you will be presented with the following screen

  • For registration page
http://yourdomain.name/index.php?option=com_users&view=registration

Using this link will allow all users to register with Joomla and completely avoid the JomSocial registration flow.

This is expected behavior, because Joomla is an user-based CMS, designed to work without JomSocial installed
