I received a generous sample of this and used it last Saturday as the last step in my wash and go. I was interested to try it for the humidity control factor. It did not work, It actually seemed to...

Did not work for me at all. Left my hair frizzy and crazy looking. Did nothing to stand up to regular climate let alone humidity. Ended up switching to amika styling cream which gave me much better...

For me, consistent results are what i’m looking for in a product. This gel is giving me consistent 2nd, 3rd & 4th day good hair. I just wet my hair in the morning, arrange my hair the way I want it...

This is more of a warning than a review. I first tried the products in the 90's on my fine 3B-C with 3A waves in the back hair, and they left my hair in such a state, I returned them. Fast forward,...

My hair is wavy and since I air dry/avoid heat like the plague, my best natural look is to work my waves & the spiral curls I get underneath. I'd been using Redken Curvaceous Full Swirl with good...

This gel was pretty good for me. I have very thin hair that becomes frizzy if there is even the smallest amount of humidity in the air. This product seemed to smooth my hair out nicely. The gel...

This gel is my HG. Thin in consistency so it's easy to work through hair without disturbing the curl pattern. It leaves my curls shiny, defined and frizz free. Adding too much will weigh my hair...

Makes my hair too crispy, especially if I use the amount suggested on the bottle. Seems to do a good job of fighting the humidity, though.

It is a serum like gel in consistency, but it does a great job of encouraging my curls and fighting the frizz. It smells nice and does not feel heavy or greasy. I have the travel size but am...

What kind of hair you have and your climate will make ALL the difference in what works for you so don't expect to find your hg necessarily in the top picks. This works GREAT for my fine, soft,...
