Just okay
We have 5 curly Girls in the house but for some reason this was not their favorite. It was okay maybe a little too sticky.

I absolutely love this stuff! However, it can be quite drying if applied alone.

Not good for low porosity.
I’m surprised people recommend this. It makes your hair feel greasy and it gives that “i haven’t showered” look.

Its okay
After I finish this, I will not repurchase. It was okay. Left my hair real crunchy and weighed down and I don't think I used a lot of product. I like the other products but will probably opt for a differnt brand of gel.

Game Changer!
I have been looking for a product to use when I do the LOC method on my hair. And this is the first one to not dry out my hair! I only used a nickel size and I could have used maybe a quarter size, as when my hair dried, it didn't create a cast, which this is on me and not the product. My hair feels touchable and soft. I will come back and update when I can say how much is needed to create a cast. And list the other products I've used. I have thick, bleached type 2 hair.

Left Residue Behind
I only tried this gel once because it left a terrible residue on my hair after I finished my normal hair routine. Even after drying, a reside remained on my hair leaving it feeling gross and requiring me to wash my hands every time I touched my hair. There was that much residue. So gross.

Good Stuff
Have tried a few gels and this is the one with just the right amount of hold (not too stiff, but lasts hours if applied properly). I use it daily for thin, curly hair and am very pleased with the results.

Tragic
This gel made my curls look so good and defined. BUT….. the residue this gel left on my hair was awful. It made my hair feel dry and tangled. It leaves an apparent waxy residue and I could feel it on my fingers when I ran them through my hair. And I gave this gel a chance! I used it for 3 months now and tried it with different products and amounts of gel. it’s just not worth the good curls for days of nasty feeling hair.

Too much protien.
I tried to like this but it dried out my hair. My hair LOOKED nice but it didn’t feel nice. And then when I went to refresh the next day my hair was pretty tangled cause it was dry as heck. If your hair likes protein then this would probably be good, but if you’re protein sensitive I wouldn’t recommend this gel.
