Damp, humid weather? No Problem!

This anti-frizz line of products works amazingly! Yesterday, the first time I used these products after purchasing them, tropical storm Ophelia was making super-wet weather. We were going out for the evening, and my hair was looking good, with defined, bouncy, and soft curls. Then I was rained on in...

My daughter and I smelled this in store and said we had to try it. Unfortunately, the smell overhyped us on the product. My daughter has corkscrew curls, while I have big waves. She said she prefers the shape up aqua gel for her curls, as it gives her a much better hold for her curls to last longer. This only really gives my hair a good hold on day one, then my waves slowly loosen each day after. I'm hoping to have better luck with the Hydro style flexi jelly because I'm allergic to one ingredient in the Aqua gel. Our hair isn't really frizzy, we were truly persuaded by the scent. If you aren't worried about the hold longevity of your curls or waves, then this might be a good choice. We would probably keep buying this, if the hold lasted past day one.

BE WARNED

It does help with frizz. It also drys out your scalp, give you such severe dandruff you get checked for lice because it's so itchy. There you are told nope you have SEVERE dandruff ( which you have never had in your life.). Then you wash you hair and SOO much hair falls out your fiancée thinks you forgot to clean the drain for days ( you didn't it was ONE wash). You throw this product away and within two days you scalp is better and your hair is no longer falling out. Your hair will be much thinner but at least your not bald. BE WARNED. This was purchased through ulta so they can verify my purchase. ZERO STARS AND THEY ARE LUCKY THERE IS NOT A LAWSUIT.

I have coarse 2A hair didn't really help with the frizz even after applying moisturizing products like leave in conditioner, curl smith oil in cream, and argan oil.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

Works Great on the 1st day

From Tampa, FL

This product works great on the first application! my hair looks beautiful, healthy, moisturized, and my curls are very defined with a flexible hold. HOWEVER - towards the end of the day, it gets ungodly frizzy and brittle? I tried touching it up with a light leave in spray (water and the frizz rescue leave in coconditioner) and again, looks great upon application but ends up falling out and looking frizzy/dry by end of day. I really wanted to like this! If my hair looks how it did when I first apply it ALL DAY, it would be a 10/10.
