Most Helpful Positive Review Totally in love with this Amazing. It comes in different size bottles this was my first time trying this gel and I got the small bottle I'm ready to go back in and get the big bottle.
Most Helpful Critical Review Ok... So I've heard about these products and wanted to give them a try. I have long, thick, curly hair. It's probably considered more wavy than curly, because I don't have ringlets, but defintiely more curly than wavy. I tried this and first want to say, it is not a good value. I tried the small bottle because I wanted to try. I've only used this product twice and I'm basically over halfway through. If you have thick or long hair, you need a TON. It definitely did not leave a crunch, which I liked (it did make my ends slightly crunch, but easy to prevent. And took away frizz and poof. However, it also took away some of my curl. It was nice, but my hair lost volume and was more flat. Which is ok, but not how I generally like my hair. I think that this product would be nice for someone who wants to "Tame" their hair instead of embrace.
I also want to add that I don't own a hairdryer. I HAVE to apply product to pretty wet hair and let it air dry in order for my hair to lay right. Had I used a dryer, I may have had a different experience. I don't think I will use this product in the future.

Best stuff I've ever used on my natural curls
Not worth it! 1
ChocoMilko from Hburg
I trusted this brand a lot and for the price I thought it had to work! It made my hair great for a few weeks don't get me wrong but then it made my scalp irritated, and my hair got thin and frizzy :( I then used more devacurl products to try and fix it but that only made it worse. Still trying to recover from the year of damage don't even try.
Seems Different 1
Danielle from Philadelphia,PA
I have not used this in awhile but I think they are using a new formula because it left my hair flaky and dry.
I wouldn't buy this again! 1
Smmer81 from Mansfield ohio
I hated this product! I did everything it said to downs my hair looked a hot mess! Fizzy no curls I used a diffuser and everything. I returned it and exchanged it for the deva curl super cream coconut curl style.
Not really worth the price. 1
Dena from New Albany,IN
I used this product after washing my hair and applying a leave in conditioner. All silicone free.
Effective and soft 5
Liisa from Sequim wa
I use after showering. It defines the curl and leaves the hair soft.
I enjoy! 4
Bagel from Goleta, CA
This gel is super nice because I have curly/wavy hair and I don't usually have time to style it when I'm running late to work or school after showering. A few reviews I read have said that it made their hair frizzy but they also used a diffuser! I believe if you use this product AFTER using a diffuser it could easily solve it but I'm not entirely sure, as I have never used one myself! It's a little underwhelming in the hold department but it IS a LIGHT defining gel... so my hair tends to look more beach-wavy than curly but I am satisfied :)
Love this product! 5

Squeeze a little in my palm, rub between my hands then distribute onto my wet hair.
Dont waste your money!! 1
Meg from Medford
Biggest waste of money! It does not work! My hair looked so bad my sister asked me if I just rolled out of bed! Its sticky, flaky, no hold, and gave my hair a layer of funk! Dont waste your money on this! I'm not sure how this brand made it in ulta! Very disappointed.
Dry frizzy mess 1
Nicole from Ohio
I have a lot of fine, 2b-c waves that usually love protein. And I have several other Devacurl products I like (volumizing foam and Wave Maker). But this gel dried my hair out, created a ton of frizz, felt weightless but not in a good way - more in a it sucked every ounce of moisture from my hair way. Not only that, but it also reacted to my leave-in and became gritty, almost like sand in my hair. It was an absolute disaster.

Didn't do much for my waves
It's an okay product for wavy hair 4
Valerie from Austin,TX
I bought this sample size to try before I buy and I'm glad I did. Over all it is a good product. Most gels leave my hair crunchy and with the "wet look" no matter how little I put, but this product didn't do that which is a plus. For my hair type, wavy curly, it didn't help acheave a great hairstyle but didn't make for a bad hair day either. It was just a "meh" type product for my hair type. It did like a tiny tiny bit weigh down my hair, but not like other curl products. If you have type 3/4 curly hair, this may be a better suit.
Light on hold 3
Merry from Texas
I want to like this product, but it doesn't provide enough hold to for my hair. I have fine, wavy hair that when wet is a 2b curl. The gel is ok when my hair is wet but once i diffuse or air dry my hair, the curl doesn't keep very well. I think I'm going to look at the Not Your Moms Curl Talk gel since it's a stronger hold and not so pricey.

Great Product 5
Chelsea from Helena, MT
I just got me first Perm ever at Ulta Beauty in Bozeman, MT and my friend/hair stylist recommended this product. It works great, and it doesn't feel like there is any product in my hair when it dries. No crunchy or sticky feel like other leave in products.
I will buy a larger size 5
Brea from SC
Perfect for travel size. It's very light weight and didn't leave my hair looking like spaghetti

I had to use a lot of product and it would make my hair dry and frizzy.
I would buy again 4
Mimi from Syracuse ny
I use as directed. It does not always prevent frizz when I lightly dampen my hair the second day. Tomorrow I will add a bit after dampening my hair

Hate hate double hate 2
Lmo from Fort Worth, TX
I keep hearing everyone talk about DevaCurl and how I should be using it. My hair is Caucasian coarse, more curly than wavy. I try hair products all the time but when I wear it curly, I end up going back to cheap ol' Tressemme mousse. I used this gel with the DevaCurl SuperCream and I guess my expectations were just too high. I tried three different ways: towel-dried hair, barely towel-dried, and almost dripping wet, and then I diffused. The results were the same each time: a fuzz ball nightmare. Zero curl definition and it felt like a rats nest. I am writing this review after the third try and I can't get home fast enough to wash it out of my hair.
Bring on The curls 5
Kira from Kalamazoo
I love this product line! I'm always pleased with the results when I use these products. I have extremely fine, curly hair and often run into trouble with products weighing on my curls, and making them more wavy than curly.
This is lightweight but keeps my curls bouncing.
Attention All Blondes 5
Blonde Curl from Kittanning Pa
Use sparingly. That's all it takes for this marvelous product. Finally my search is over for the perfect curly hair product. It will not weigh your hair down or feel stiff! Great products for natural blonde curly hair is extremely difficult to find! This one is a keeper!
