Great slip and hold

Worked great for my 2B waves! Smells good and has great slip with my styling brush! Only takes a small amount, so the bottle should last awhile. Neat bottle with a twist to open and close cap. No cast to scrunch out and I ended up with soft and moisturized curls with just this product alone. I'...

Doesn't weigh down hair, not super effective

This product was alright. I have curly hair that can't handle too much product and this product is light enough to not weigh my hair down, which I like. It has a thin consistency that isn't overpowering when applied to the hair. However, I feel that it doesn't actually help my hair. The curls are no...

I have been using it for 3 months already, and I love how after the first use I noticed how my thin hair gained thickness, dense texture and my curls were bouncing. Not only it is good for styling curls but also to help my hair feel morw dense and stronger. I love it!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Made hair so dry after one use.

I purchased 2 full-size products. I am extremely disappointed in both the products and the company. These products ruined my previously beautiful, hydrated hair after just one use. Although they smell amazing, the formulas contain ingredients that are not good for hair and dries it out like I used plain alcohol to style my hair. Horrible! I contacted the company immediately, and they told me I would need to send the products back to receive a refund. Unfortunately, I had already thrown them away. That's over $100 down the drain. I hope others read this review so they can save their money and hair from the same experience. I would absolutely buy the scent as a standalone fragrance it really does smell incredible but I would never purchase the hair products again.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
