The one and only gel for my curls!

Not so strong hold

Bought the gel as soon as I heard about it but was ultimately let down and returned it. For reference my hair is wavy 2a-b high porosity, undyed. I tried the gel with different product combinations to give it a fair shot but i was unimpressed each time. Even after applying a hydrating curl cream or ...

The one and only gel for my curls!

Hair Type Wavy Hair

I have 2B-2C wavy curly hair and I've tried every gel out there (from drugstore brands to high-end ones) and nothing compares to the Rizos Curls Strong Hold Gel. First of all, the smell is amazing. It's fresh, a little fruity, and just makes wash days feel like a self care ritual. What I love most is that it gives me the perfect hold without the crunch. My curls stay defined for days, frizz-free, and still soft to the touch. It doesn't flake, it layers beautifully with my leave-in conditioner, and it doesn't weigh my hair down. A little goes a long way, which makes it totally worth it. This gel brought my curls back to life: they look healthier, shinier, and bouncier than ever. If you're a wavy/curly girl struggling to find a gel that actually does it all, this is the one. I'm officially obsessed and not switching anytime soon!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

SO BAD

Submitted 8 days ago

By Taylor

From Oregon

I have 2C curls. This gel looked good for about an hour after diffusing. Defintely not a hard cast. After diffusing, it slowly made my hair frizz/inflate until I looked like hermoine granger. Day 2 my hair was so tangled and it left a sticky film on my curls. Absolutely will not repurchase.

Hair Type Very Curly Hair

I really wanted to love this product but it is not a hard hold gel as advertised. On wash day, my curly hair should look fresh, glossy, textured, curls should have definition. Instead, by the end of the day, my hair looks puffy and messy-it looks more like day two or three hair. The curls do not look perfectly defined. I'm so sad that I'll have to return this product.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

Not really strong hold

Submitted 2 months ago

By Dari

From New York

This gel claims go have a strong hold but I literally have to use almost half the bottle for it to give me a gel cast, it also has a weird silicon feeling for some reason and I dont hate the smell of it after it sets in my hair but during the application process the scent is too much and not pleasant at all
