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 ...

Works well once you get the hang of it

I bought this gel on the recommendation of my stylist. He uses it on me and my curls pop! For me, however, it is an experiment in progress. It seems best applied to dripping wet hair - great for warm weather but not for winter! Additionally, as a person with medium to thin hair, I can't apply too much. It would be over-crunchy. I use up to about a teaspoon, smoothing it into my hair with my palms and then scrunching all over. I allow it to air dry and then re-scrunch most of the hair, raking and shaking the top only. My curls become more defined after the first day and last about 3 days. I gave it 4 stars because it works pretty well once you figure out how to use it.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Q
How is this different from the quench gel
Asked by Donna
Official Answer By DevaCurl - Brand Engage
Hi! 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
