Apply using Ouidad's Rake & Shake technique. Divide damp hair into sections. Rake a nickel-size amount of gel through each section, using fingertips to seal and smooth the cuticle from roots to ends.

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...

Not strong enough for high humidity areas
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I was so hopeful for Ouidad's Advanced Climate Control Gel since I live in a very humid area and wanted to tame my frizz and keep my curls/waves defined. Applying was good because my hair didn't feel crunchy like it usually does when I use g...

For folks looking for a Light/medium hold gel
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I have thick low porosity 3b curls and am always on the lookout for new products that are moisturizing with good hold. After my usually wash and conditioner, I tested out the Ouidad advanced climate control gel on my hair without any other products using my usual brush styling method. I liked that the scent wasn't too intense - the smell is reminiscent of hairspray but in a good way. It also did not flash dry my hair like other styling products which I appreciated and had good slip. However, it doesn't really help with clumping so that took more effort on my end when styling. I let it air dry overnight and did not experience any gel cast like other strong hold products. I'm getting nice voluminous day 1 hair but I don't think I'll get lasting hold from this product. No flaking which is good. Overall, this is probably best for folks looking for a medium/light hold and maybe layered with another product like a mousse.


Perfect gel!
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
Works well for someone who works in the heat like literally 12hr days 6 days a week!! I work / live in my car and its a perfect go to for the hot and humid days !
All-Day Hold
Hair Type Wavy Hair
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The gel keeps my curls and slick-backed hair locked in place. Gives a really nice clean wet look that makes my hair look defined and shiny. It's very dry where I live but true gel holds up well in my weather. Plus it dries clear so no need to worry about flakes.


Don't like
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Heat and Humidity gel was a disappointment I expected more for the price value. While wet putting it on it looked great when you dried it it left white residue on hair. The packaging is great. I followed instructions and I didn't like it. I also have other hair care products from this range.
Some hold but still frizzed
Hair Type Wavy Hair
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I used the Ouidad shampoo and conditioner that I already had, to set my hair to test this product. While my hair was still damp, I could see definition and hold in some areas, but noticed that my curls in front kept separating. After scrunching while blow drying with a diffuser, the front curls still didn't stay defined, and were frizzy. The hold overall was solid, but it didn't work for me. It may be a great product for someone else.
