Elongsting but Drying
Purchased this because I see it in most Wash & Go hair videos. I was a little disappointed. Does creat some elongation as advertised but is very drying. Left my hair brittle.

Good product
Works great and shockingly reasonable in price. Consistency is nice and light too. Doesn't weigh hair down or create white flakes. I'm pleased with it.

Love it for my cornrows
I put blue magic as my base and this gel to help hydrate and keep my cornrows together/neat. It’s the best combination. My hair has a sheen and the products dry well together. The little two white dots at the start of my braids were from the crème of nature edge control: I stopped using it after the first two cornrows because this gel got the job done. I’m so in love with its hydration and the fact it’s not leaving residue. This product on my wash and goes was ok too and I would suggest a stronger hold gel paired either it for the ends to give the curl a stronger cast. It definitely can give a cast but not a wet line extrem cast. Love this gel so much . I have thin 4b/c hair btw

makes my hair look good for a day or two and after that it gets super frizzy and it looks a mess... i usually use not your mothers gel and that works excellent and it keeps my hair looking like day one hair for at least 2 weeks. i just did my hair using this gel 5 days ago and it's already looking like i haven't done it in a month. it's not good at keeping ur hair looking nice for more than 4 days😂

No greasy or flaky residue, defines and texture curls. It’s a good product for thick hair. Best results when hair is wet and air dry.

Best gel I’ve used!! I’ve tried may gels and I just keep coming back to this one. It defines, but also stretches out some of my shrinkage. With this gel my hair can last several days & doesn’t get tangled or very frizzy. With other gels I have to touch up my hair everyday. If I want to do a bun or ponytail it also provides a smooth hold without making my hair too hard or flaky. I’ve purchased this gel over 10 times! The photo I added is my day 2 hair

Amazing!
This gel is always consistently good. It’s smoothing and adds shine. You may get minimal dust on day 1 but it goes away. Defines and holds curls

I have fine naturally curly hair. The aunt Jackie’s flaxseed gel helped hold and define curl. But it didn’t help with the frizz at all and has a sticky feeling in my hair.

Not so good
I used the shampoo and leave in conditioner. The gel did not elongate my curls. They are tight, but slightly soft.

Love this gel!! Only protein defines my 4c curls the best and the flexseed helps with the slip!! Hold doesn't last too long but pair with a strong hold mouse or holding gel

Shrinkage
I’m natural. My hair is soft but tightly curly. Shrinkage is horrible. This product failed to stop some shrinkage if not all and, added no shine to my hair. I returned the product.

Best gel ever!!
Awesome hold without flaking. Doesn’t add heaviness or weight to your hair. Works for all hair types too! Quality product.

Great curl definition
This product is great for defining my 4c curls and moisturizing them. I love how the curls come out. It is great for shaping and not messing with them and letting them set with a diffuser. My hair is always going to shrink because it is what it is. The only way for hair to be elongated and keep the curl is by relaxing the hair at a shorter period of time. I love how there is no color in this product so my pillows won't be jacked up. My curls are way better than I ever thought. This product is the truth. This is truly for 4c hair. They know about coiled hair

Affordable alternative
Affordable & decent alternative to Kinky Curly custard but I still feel like my thick coarse 2a waves are not holding up as much. Still much better than other gels I’ve tried.

Title feels as if you’re buying from family.
God answered my “hair prayer” with Aunt Jacky’s!!! Please consider making larger size containers of the product - THEY WILL SELL.
