Things to Remember: Cécred Strong Hold Gel sets quickly - work in small sections until gel gets tacky, which means your style is locked in.
- Start with clean, damp or dry hair.
- Dispense a pea-sized amount, rub between hands, and apply section by section evenly.
- Style as usual.
- To prevent reversion on textured hair, use a blow-dryer to set.

Strong Hold Without the Crunch, And Great Next-Day Hair!
I received this Strong Hold Gel for free in exchange for my honest review. I have naturally 2C/3A hair, and I've tried a lot of gels over the years, many either leave my hair crunchy, flaky, or too stiff. This one really surprised me. I used it on damp hair, scrunching it through my curls and then ...

Not quite high hold. But a long hold
I would not say that it has a high hold. The gel has a very good fragrant to it. It didn't leave my hands sticky after applying it. It gives a smooth look but not a tight hold.

Strong hold
Hair Type Straight Hair
I like the consistency of the gel and unlike how it looks, it really holds down my hair, even with a tiny amount.
crunchy hair mess
Hair Type Straight Hair
I had better results with just about any other gel. Leaves hair crunchy and hard to comb through.
Better for thicker hair

It's a thick gel that leaves the hair sticky for a while, but in place after it dries. Not good for curls in my opinion as your hair will stick to your hands and increase frizz. I usually use with a bit of water to make it smoother and easier to work with. Not bad, but tailored for thicker hair than needs to be layed down or slicked.
My first impression was that the gel was a little light
