Give it a try maybe?
This product gave my hair a very thick and hard texture. Once I fluffed it with my hands, it looked fairly good. I don’t love the smell of it. It is something to try

Great texture
Been using this for my 2 year old and it really helps to style his hair right after he wakes up! It also lasts through the day. Great texture and smells good

Good quality!
I have thick, black hair, and it doesn't show up as white. It blends right in, gives me a nice shape, and it does its job. I usually apply it to lightly damp hair, and it doesn't feel sticky or anything. It has a nice, light scent, and it doesn't look greasy - which is important for dark hair. I enjoy it, but I wish it wasn't super expensive. It usually lasts me about 6 months.

Buyer Beware
This stuff is garbage and a waste of money. Just look at the ingredients. It is car wax at 1,000 times the price. I just used it for the first time and threw it away. I need to wash the sticky out of my hair. My hair is flat and sticky and a mess and I have beautiful full and slightly wavvy hair. This is a useless and expensive scam.

Consistency
Why did you change the formula with this product!? The forming cream is completely different, the cream is more liquid than before. Consumers should have been notified since the product is pricey.

Easy to apply on hair.
This cream helps hairs be formed like the way we want and SUPER EASY to apply on hair. After making hair to be dry, put a tiny cream to areas need to be formed. Its smelling is like milk and honey. I'd suggest this product for my friends next time. GREAT!
