It’s ok
"I like that this product is gentle for my acne and sensitive skin, but it doesn’t have much of a hold and struggles to tame my frizz."

Reviews
Did not work for me
"I paired this with the volumizing shampoo and my hair is now dry, straw-like and frizzy. It did not enhance my wavy/curly hair, it actually gave me less waves/curls than my typical routine. I even tried adding oil and a leave in conditioner with it and it’s still so drying."
Amazing!
"I used this product ONCE along with the volumizing conditioner and clarifying shampoo and my hair has never looked and felt better. For reference, my hair is about 2b-2c and is very fine + color treated, so I have a lot of trouble finding styling products that don’t make my hair look/feel greasy and also doesn’t weight it down. This is the first time I used a styling product that actually air dries well without making my hair look flat and my waves look weird. Plus it smells so good and refreshing!"
Don’t need frizz spray anymore
"This was my first time trying Odele so I did the whole curls system - shampoo, conditioner, leave in, cream and foam. Absolutely loving everything! My hair feels softer, less frizz, and it’s all clean products! Foam is probably my fav product with the cream combo. Will definitely be buying again!"
Obsessed
"I love how this foam is lightweight on my curls and smells amazing"
On one hand…
"I love how this really helps controlling frizz. Only problem is that by the end of day hair looks dirty. So you definitely have to wash your hair following a day with this product."
Light weight hold
"I've used this curling foam with wet and dry hair and I vastly prefer it with wet hair as it's easier to style and the curls seem more defined. One to two pumps of the product lends lightweight hold and the product can be layered for stronger hold although the hair does get a little crunchy if product isn't evenly distributed. There is a light unisex scent and my partner has enjoyed using this product as well."
Overall good product
"I got this Curl Defining Foam for free to try out. It's a nice, lightweight formula that doesn't make my hair feel crunchy. I did find that consistency is key—it works significantly better on wet hair than damp or dry hair. When used on wet hair, it gives my curls a nice springy bounce that lasts. It's a solid product, just make sure your hair is wet enough when you apply it! It smells really nice too"
Super Definiton
"This product is great, it smells great, and it works well. It does not get very sticky when you apply it to your hair. I did not experience any immediate flaking. I did have some light flaking around day 5, but it was manageable by adding a little bit of oil to my hair. I will keep this foam, and I would reccomend it."
Yes, I would buy Odele Curl Defining Foam.
"I received a free Odele Curl Defining Foam through BzzAgent in exchange for my honest opinion. It's the second Odele product I've tried, and it has treated my hair very well, living up to its promises. I'm convinced it's good, and it has a very pleasant, subtle citrus scent. It gives my hair a beautiful, natural shine, leaving it very manageable and soft, creating fresh waves without any stickiness. My hair looks healthy, shiny, and, most importantly, under control and more defined hair. Try it; I highly recommend it."
