Mixed feelings on this product
So I got to try this DevaCurl Ultra Defining Gel for free for my honest opinion from Influenster and DevaCurl. I also received the DevaCurl Diffuser to use with it. I have some mixed feelings on this product. For reference my hair is very thick, frizzy, wavy and long. I'd say it's either a 2A or 2B ...

Defined Curls Without the Crunch
Hair Type Wavy Hair
I've been using the Ultra Defining Gel on my curls and love how much definition it gives without making my hair feel crunchy or stiff. Which is hard to find! It helps control frizz, keeps my curls looking defined for days, and still leaves my hair feeling soft and touchable. It's become one of my favorite products for getting consistent curl results on wash day.
lightweight
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
I am impressed with the ultra defining gel. I love that it is lightweight making it easily to apply throughout the hair. It has a nice scent to it. I love the texture, it's surprisingly not sticky like most gels. I like the hold it gives my curls. It does a good job at really defining my curls. I like to let it air dry and loved the results I got with it. Will definitely be apart of my curl routine. I received this item in exchange for my honest review.
The Best Gel For Soft, Defined Curls
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
I have used this gel multiple times, and I'm blown away by the results each time. Finding a gel that defines your curls without weighing down your hair, leaving a white cast, or making your hair crunchy can be difficult. This product gives me amazingly defined curls and helps to keep my frizz at bay. It also smells amazing, which is an added benefit. This will definitely be my new go-to gel, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone with curly hair!
Defined curls that still feel soft
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
I've been a Deva Curl fan for quite some time, So I was really excited to try the Ultra Defining Gel. especially because I'm always searching for products that can hold my curls without making them feel crunchy or dry. After using it a few times, I can honestly say it gave me the kind of definition and long lasting hold I look for while still keeping my curls soft and natural. One thing that really stood out to me was how well the hold lasted throughout the day. Even in Florida humidity, my curls kept their shape and looked refreshed longer than usual. I also loved that it layered really well with the other products in my routine and didn't leave behind build up or flakes.
Great
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
I really like this hair gel. It does a really good job putting a cast on my curls without weighing it down or making it sticky.

- Q
How is this different from the quench gel
- Asked by Donna
- Official Answer By DevaCurl - Brand EngageHi! Our Ultra Defining Gel provides a strong hold with a non-crunch finish that defines curls, fights frizz, and enhances shine and bounce. It features a curl-locking blend that creates a defined cast without flaking. The Quench’n Define Gel is specifically designed for dry, medium to coarse waves, curls, and coils. It delivers strong hold while also locking in moisture for up to 5 days, helping enhance elongation and shine. It’s ideal for wash-and-go styles or protective styling and performs well even in high humidity. Both offer strong hold without crunch, but Quench’n Define focuses more on added moisture and elongation for drier curl types.Was this answer helpful to you
