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 received this product in exchange for my honest review] The gel itself came in a small plastic bag which is ok I suppose! The consistency of the gel is great! It hold up perfectly fine the scent is great! I love that it leaves my hair soft.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Great product! Makes hair shiny with less frizz! Comes out like a gel that easy to apply to wet or dry hair. Did not notice any volume however on thr dry season in San Diego, this works great at keeping frizzy dry hair flyaways!

Hair Type Very Curly Hair

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I live in Houston which has 100% humidity almost year round and this product held up beautifully. I was a little skeptical as it is pretty thin as you can see from my photo. I have naturally curly hair and it freezes easily. I used this product a few days ago and as you can see this morning on my way to work my curls still look fresh and bouncy. I just misted my curls and the gel was still holding up. The gel is light and doesn't weigh my hair down. I also don't see flakes on my hair which is great! I highly recommend this product.

Holds Curl

From San Diego

Hair Type Wavy Hair

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This is a lightweight liquid gel that easily distributes throughout the hair. I air dried my hair and the gel held the curl in my hair, but did not entirely tame the flyaways. The curl lasted 2 days. However, my hair felt a little dry and frizzy after use. It may work better with a blow dryer and a diffuser. I also live in a dry environment, in which my hair gets frizzy. This may work better to tame frizz in humid environments. The smell was not strong and it did not feel heavy on the hair.
