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...

Perfect Humidity Control
Hair Type Wavy Hair
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I've been looking for the perfect anti-frizz product for my natural curls and this Ouidad Advanced Climate Control has been perfect! It's easy to manage and absorbs quickly! It smells great, controls, the frizz while still leaving my hair soft, without the "crispy" feeling. Overall, i would recommend this product!


Great gel!
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This product pleasantly surprised me! When dispensing the product, the gel has a lightweight serum like consistency. When applied to wet hair, it transforms into a mousse like texture that allows the curls to clump instantly. Once my hair dried, gel left a slight crunch and hold which I liked. However, I wished the gel provided a stronger gel cast. The best thing about this gel is that it held up in the humid Texas heat!


Frizz Control Even in the Humid South
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Fellow curly-haired people who live in the South, you NEED to get the Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Heat and Humidity Gel (Stronger Hold)!! I have long, fine 3B hair that will hold curls easily but is very prone to frizz with the humidity we have here in South Louisiana. I always look for products to help keep the frizz at bay while also being lightweight. Ouidad Climate Control Gel does just that! It gives my hair a great cast (if you don't know what that is, go look it up on a few curly method pages and thank me later-it's a game changer for staying power with fine hair) that I can even sleep in after washing. [See my picture for what my cast looks like when I wake up, before styling.] All I do is apply any product(s) with Ouidad Gel being last, use a curl defining brush to help the clumps form, reapply a bit of Ouidad Gel if any smoothing is needed, do a plop for a short time, then diffuse upside down... Done! Once I'm ready to style and break the cast, I soften it with a bit of hair oil and my curls are still completely defined and frizz free. I will continue to use and recommend Ouidad Climate Control Heat and Humidity Gel (Stronger Hold) because it is perfect for fine curly hair!


Amazing gel
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Ouidad advanced, climate control, heat, and humidity gel holds my daughter's curls and my curls great. I love the consistency of the gel that it's not overly thick and can be easily raked through our curls. The gel cast it leaves when crunching it out, does not leave any flakes behind. There is no scent to this so for some could be a bad thing could be a good thing. It's up to the person really matter to me. It is a little more on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for. I can definitely tell the difference between this and my five dollar gel. And I thought there wasn't a difference. Beforehand, that gel was gel. Because I had never splurged on myself before and now I don't think I can go back to that five dollar gel.


Maybe user error
Hair Type Wavy Hair
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I'm conflicted on this product. Maybe I'm not using this correctly but when I put it in my hair it somehow dries frizzy. Almost worst in the humidity. Im going to keep using it and maybe my review will change when i figure it out. I will say it does hold the curl, but it doesnt make it nice like my other gels like Aunt jackies don't shrink gel. I will say I let it airdry, maybe this product works better when you diffuse your hair
