Love It!
I was browsing Ulta for some new hair care products and came across NYM line! I can honestly say that this stuff is amazing, especially for the price point. My hair is very coarse, curly and needs moisture; this product gave me definition and moisture. Definitely recommend this brand

Works but makes hair really dry
It works on my curls but it made my hair dry like straw. My hair looks like crispy noodles. I just wish it wasn't so drying.

Performs great, but smells too strong
Verified Buyer

This gel is super nice and affordable. I like how it's easy to spread and almost feels like a lotion rather than a gunky gel. Now this is coming from someone that likes fragrance in products, but wow. This gel smells waaaaaay too strong and concentrated.... It's not the greatest smell imo. I love smelling everything, but this is a very rare case where I almost can't stand the smell while im applying it and diffusing. I wish they would fix how it smells, because while I love it, I'm not sure if I'll repurchase it :( !!!! I would only recommend it if you're completely nose blind/ don't mind the strong smell lasting for a few hours.
A good standard hair gel

It's a pretty good hair gel, I'd recommend it if you're looking for one. I tried it on my natural hair and took the photos a few hours apart, I'd say they held up fairly well. Of course my hair changed a bit throughout the day, but there was no significant frizziness or mess that came with this gel in. I simply used my hair oil and this gel, and it seemed to work fairly well. It's easy to apply, and doesn't have any real scent. The ingredients seem pretty good, with no gluten, silicone, or alcohol. Also it's cruelty free, which is always a plus. And it didn't leave my hair feeling weird, sticky, or crunchy- nothing like that. It seems to be a fairly standard product, but if you're looking for a new hair gel I'd definitely consider it.
Nice curl product!

I really liked this product and would definitely buy it again! It holds curls really well without making them feel crunchy, which is hard to find. Plus, it has a really nice smell — not overpowering at all. Highly recommend!
Hydrating and NOT crunchy

I was so surprised with this gel. The packaging is cute and simple and it made me think the gel was thick when i squeezed the gel onto my hands, not only did it come out with ease, but the gel also had a good amount of slip. Unlike other gels i have used in the past, this did not strip my hair moisture at all (i have high porosity hair). I used the recommended amount, my hair did not feel crunchy. I love this

Overall, I enjoy this gel. The hold is definitely on the lighter side (for reference, I have thick curls). I normally do a wash & go with gels, but since the hold wasn't strong, I tried a twist out. It left my hair surprisingly soft and didn't have a cast at all. The smell is fine and to me, doesn't really linger as the days go on. It's not too bad of a gel and would probably work great for those with looser curls.
