Best gel I've ever tried
This is the best gel I have ever tried. Usually my 2b/2c waves are limp within a few hours of drying no matter what products I apply. With this new stronger hold gel, my waves have held for days with minimal refreshing required. I was concerned that with the stronger hold it would make my hair too c...

I thought it was all gels, but it's just glycerin
I heard hundreds of recommendations for this gel when I started embracing my natural 2B-3A medium porosity hair. I bought it without question, and even ordered a second bottle (the huge one, too) after the first ran out. I thought the dryness/straw texture my hair got after application was just par ...

I would it again!
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
For some using this gel on my hair, my hair color is black. It didn't leave any flakes on it. I had a lot of compliments .. other gel that I have tried leave flakes on my hair. This is the first one that doesn't leave flakes on my hair.
this is alright
Ive been hunting for an anti-frizz curl/ wave holder… I apply this to fully wet or dampened year. The final texture is not too crispy, but it does not hold as well as mousse. Does not contain frizz as much as other gels, especially for the cost.
This Gel is the Best!
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
My all time favorite, holy grail, GOAT hair gel! I've struggled with frizzy hair since puberty. This gel along with a moisturizing leave in is perfection. I get tons of compliments on my curly mane. Thanks Quidad!
Doesn't work for coily thick hair
I have 4a hair i was expecting quite a hold but my hair became frizzy with undifined roots and lacked definition. It didn't create a cast like a topper gel would I was dissaponited espically for the price point it is set at.
Excellent IF You Can Stand The Smell
This is a cult classic for a reason, and it's for literally everything about it except the fragrance. It is a thin fluid gel with excellent slip, making it a dream to distribute through any curl pattern. It provides next-level shine and contains many flexible holding agents which means you can scrunch out the crunch and still get good style retention. If you have fine or lower density hair, you can probably get away with just using this gel as it is moisturizing to an extent. When it comes to the fragrance in this product (in basically all of the products from this line) be prepared. I am going to describe exactly what it smells like: A sunflower fell into your grandmother's Coty Airspun Powder and then danced around her bedroom while all of her perfumes circled around and sprayed continuously. If you can handle that, then this gel is hard to beat. Also, if you can handle that I have questions. TLDR: Excellent gel ruined by the awful fragrance selection Ouidad seems determined to keep making.
