While some express concerns about the fragrance and packaging issues, the overall performance in enhancing natural curls makes it a popular choice among users. It's suitable for various hair types, especially wavy and loose curls, making it a versatile styling option.

I have used many other brands and it would make my hair flakey and would not give any volume at all. First time using this brand and I loooove it!!!

Not for me
I bought this as a mini to try out as I have wavy hair and struggle to find a product that will give me defined waves. This is definitely not the product for me! This dries down quickly and is very stiff. I have black hair and leaves white particles after it dries. So disappointing!

Annoyed
Made my hair super crunchy and there's no way to "break the cast" with oil. It's not light at all.

Crunchy and sticky
For a "soft-touchable hold," this left my curls incredibly crunchy and sticky. I tried to make it work a few times, thought maybe I was just using too much, but I got the same results and ended up having to wash it out every time. The smell isn't that bad, it's quite a soapy scent, but I would prefer it be fragrance free.

Not for African American hair
This is not for black girls hair. Very sticky on hands when applied, when dry hair is extremely hard.

Didn't like the results
I was hoping to use this to enhance the longevity of my curls. Not a great product. My hair was crunchy and gave my hair a texture that was hard to fix unless I washed the product out. My hair seemed to have been drenched in hair spray then tried to curl it with a hot tool. I will not use this again

Not your mother's moose
It works pretty good. I mean, there’s no perfect moose in the world, but I use it for slick backs because I have straight hair

Zero hold
I actually like the smell, but this has no hold. Many have recommended this line and I purchased shampoo, conditioner, cream, gel, spray gel, hairspray, and mousse. I've played around with different combinations, but I hate my hair every time. I'll keep the shampoo & conditioner and hairspray, but the rest of the styling products do nothing for my hair and I have less curl using them so I'll be returning.

A shame
I didn’t like it very much to be honest I don’t know if it’s because I have fine hair but I can still do curly or it’s for curly hair with more volume but mine wasn’t so cute 🥲 it’s a shame cause I like this brand but well
