The SheaMoisture Coconut & Hibiscus Curling Gel So
The SheaMoisture Coconut & Hibiscus Curling Gel Soufflé is a standout product, distinguished by its ability to enhance the health and appearance of curly hair thanks to a formula rich in highly nourishing natural ingredients. Its blend of coconut oil, hibiscus flower, agave nectar, and flaxseed oil offers a comprehensive care experience that hydrates, strengthens, and defines curls in an exceptional way. Coconut oil provides deep hydration, helping to lock in the hair's natural moisture, while hibiscus strengthens the hair fiber and imparts a healthy shine. Agave nectar acts as a natural humectant that seals in hydration and leaves curls supple, while flaxseed—rich in essential fatty acids—helps control frizz and maintain curl definition for longer. This gel soufflé sets itself apart by offering long-lasting definition without stiffness, allowing curls to retain their natural movement. Its lightweight texture makes for easy application and leaves a shiny, healthy-looking finish. Furthermore, its formula is color-safe—making it ideal for color-treated hair—and is free from sulfates, parabens, and heavy silicones, thereby promoting long-term scalp and hair health. It is particularly beneficial for thick or very dry curls, as it delivers intense hydration that lasts throughout the day. Its tropical scent and its ability to control frizz—even in humid climates—round out a highly satisfying user experience.

A staple in my hair routine!
I always love using this product on my hair after I shower! It makes my hair feel hydrated and healthy, while not weighing it down! I will always come back to this.

Amazing, but the trick is using a small amount on
At first, this gel weighed my hair down until I learned how to use it. My secret from experience: use a tiny amount on soaking wet hair. When used like that it leave curls perfectly defined, shiny, and completely frizz free. It smells good like coconut.

Learned to like it!
I’ve grown to like this product. I had a many of trial and error with it however I learned to appreciate the benefits it provides for my hair. Moisture for days, curl definition and hair strengthen. My hair likes it more than I personally dislike liked it. I use it in the 3 step LOCG or LOGC method and it’s been a least 5 years (consistently) since I’ve been using it. L (liquid) I use org Aloe Vera juice, O (oil or grease) Blue Magic or Coconut Oil, C (cream) SM Curl Enhancing Smoothie G (gel) SM Curling Soufflé

Gel does not dry down.
This curling gel smells amazing and I do like the shine and moisture it provides. As far as the hold of the gel, I don’t think I will seek this one out again for a holding / gel agent. The drying time for this gel is extremely long and honestly never dries down to a completely dry state. It gives a “Soul Glo” feel iykyk. I will not be purchasing this in the future.

The best curly hair product ever.
I’ve been using this product for years. I bounced around between gels, creams, mousses, you name it. A friend recommended this to me, and I never looked back. I apply a little oil to my ends, then scrunch the gel into towel-dried hair. Then diffuse, and my curls hold for about 2-3 days. With a little refresh spray, I’ve even gotten 4th day curls. I can’t recommend it enough. Smells wonderful, and I get complimented on my curl definition all the time. (I have 3b curls)

Not the right consistency
This used to be one of my go to products so I know the consistency well. This most recent one I purchased was actually solid when I got home and opened it. It was not that loose jelly consistency it’s supposed to be. So I will be returning. I was unable to use.

Good for those with thicker, coarse hair
Smells nice. I found it quite thick on my hair so it weighed my hair down, which I did not want. Does have a strong hold on my hair. I do like how it includes natural ingredients, but it just does not work for my hair unfortunately.

It’s okay
Good texture and smells great but holding power is eh. I think having something with more hold for a three day style is important to me as I live in a spot where my hair gets frizzy

Stiff Where?!
A gel that doesn’t leave your hair stiff! No crinkle, no white flakes just a nice defined curl! I love pairing this with Shea Moisturizer leave in conditioner. The scent is nice but not overpowering. I will always grab this off the shelf.

Smells like heaven
I love this curl smoothie because the scent is just absolutely exquisite and the texture is quite thick without being greasy or too heavy. I recommend leaving in the product to define the girl and then add water to break the crunch.

Do not recommend
This product has a natural formula, but unfortunately, it didn’t work for my hair. After several tries, it left my hair sticky and unpleasant. Donated

Curly hair approved!
I love this gel because it’s not too heavy on your curls and it doesn’t flake. Love the scent and how defined my curls are. I’ve tried this on my sons hair as well. Really good results!

Makes my hair look dirty
I have fine, curly hair with multiple curl patterns. This product makes my hair and neck sticky, and my hair look dirty. My hair doesn't seem to ever fully dry with this product in it either. And even after scrunching the crunch, my hair is still crunchy in areas. I've tried using less and it doesn't help. Definitely do not recommend.
