MsHillToYou - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
Extra hold where??? It barely has regular hold strength. This edge control is not for coarse hair or hair that is hard to lay down. In my opinion, it only works well on freshly relaxed hair, otherwise, the holding power is very minimal.

"Cantù edge control is a game-changer for achieving sleek, polished edges! This product keeps my hair looking flawless from morning to night, even in the most humid weather. It's easy to apply and holds up beautifully without flaking or stiffness, giving me the confidence to rock any hairstyle. Plus, the nourishing formula leaves my edges feeling moisturized and healthy. Say goodbye to flyaways and hello to long-lasting, on-point edges with Cantù edge control! ✨💁🏽‍♀️ #CantuBeauty #SlayTheEdges"

Super Strong Edge Gel

This is one of the best edge gels I’ve ever tried as someone with 3A curly hair. First and foremost, this edge gel has the most amazing smell, and a little goes a long way. Along with this, the gel lasts hours, at a very small price point. The only con is if you’re someone that uses your edge gel on the top of your head baby hairs, it will make your hair greasier faster.

This is the perfect hair gel for my edges. I use it for every day hair styles & to keep my hair in tact when I do my braids. It doesn't make my hair dry. That along with it not creating a lotta buildup in my hair is a major perk for me. It has a long lasting hold but doesn't feel hard like some others. I've bought it more than once & I'd definitely recommend it.

My daughter has fine and curly hair. I'm still trying to figure out how to best use this product for her, but it does hold and it smells great, so i know any issues i'm having are user error.
