Comments about Ouidad Tress Effects Styling Gel:

I had high hopes for Ouidad, since I love DevaCurl. I thought I'd try something new, so my hair doesn't get in a routine rut. Unfortunately, this gel fell way short of my expectations.

My hair still curls, of course, but it is also slightly sticky. I now have longer, not as attractive curls that look greasy and are crunchy. I've tried several different methods for this gel, including the recommended rake and shake. Nothing seems to help.

I plan on making my own Flax Seed Gel today and tossing the Ouidad.

    Comments about Ouidad Tress Effects Styling Gel:

    I have thin spiral curls, but lots of them and have tried a TON of products. I use this in combination with Ouidad moisture lock leave in conditioner. I mix a bunch of both together in my hands and then spread throughout my hair in sections. Dry hair with diffuser. Curls wind up crunchy, but I get rid of this by putting a few drops of serum on my hands and running my palms over my hair. Curls stay pretty frizz free all day. I think this product works better then the Ouidad heat & humidity gel, which does not keep my hair as frizz free.

      Comments about Ouidad Tress Effects Styling Gel:

      This is the first product that I have tried in my curly hair that I love. I have tried many products but they have left my hair frizzy by days end, this product keeps my curls in place for the whole day. I use the rake and shake method that they recommend and the results for me have been life changing ( I actually want to wear it down instead of the old pony tail standby).

        Comments about Ouidad Tress Effects Styling Gel:

        I have frizzy, thick, coarse, curly hair. The Ouidad Tress Effects works okay on my hair, but not as best the the Ouidad Climate Control Gel.
        When used in combination with the Ouidad pomade, it makes my curls softer and more controlable.

                  Tried twice - followed directions on website - I have below shoulder length curly hair and this product made my hair stiff. I did let the hair air dry. Yes it held off frizz and defined curls, but they were hard curls. Felt like any other styling gel - not for me.
