Works Great but Terrible texture

I have natural curly hair that tends to get very frizzy especially during the summer time so I was very exited to try out a product designed to control my frizz and bring shine to my hair. As you can see in my photos my hair was very shiny and the frizz was gone as promised. First i took a shower an...d after applied some to my hair whike it was still damp then i dried my hair with a blowdryer which of course created some frizz so i put some more and it worked. It has been hours and my ponytail is still looking great shiny and frizz free and held in place. It has an amazing smell to it as well. However there were a few things I would like to point out about this product that I did not like with the first being the texture itself, the moment you open the lid you'll notice the products texture is not your average creamy texture it is similar to syrup watered down a little bit. When I used my hands to apply this product to my hair I immediately did not like the feeling at all because my hands felt much to sticky and hairs were getting stuck to my fingers as i was trying to get it from my root to ends my hair also felt very weighed down even from the first application it was just much too heavy and gave me more of an unclean feeling which is not what you wanted after leaving the shower. I have a product that heat combs my hair and i tried my best to use it to even out the product and it seemed to work a bit as the product dried it started to harden a bit which was great with the hold. I have tried this a couple times after a shower because I wanted to leave an accurate reveiw but for those reasons I don't think I would buy this product again. I would probably choose another product with more of a cream texture that is less messy and less sticky over this one. Even though it did do what is said it is just too messy for me.
