Reviews
10/10 for my curly hair routine
"I’ve been using it as part of my curly hair routine and the results have been amazing. It defines my curls so well without making them feel crunchy or heavy, and my hair stays soft, bouncy, and frizz-free all day. A little goes a long way, and it layers perfectly with the rest of my routine without buildup. What I love most is how hydrated my curls look—like healthy, shiny, and full of life. Even on day 2 and 3, my curls still hold their shape with minimal refresh."
My new fav
"Might have just found my new favorite hair cream! It’s lightweight, doesn’t weigh down my hair! Keeps the curls bouncy all day long. It smells lovely as well. Thank you Odele!"
Love the results
"After it dries my hair looks shiny and healthy with a mild soft hold on the curls. Will be re-purchasing. :)"
For curlier hair, not as great for loose curls/waves.
"I recieved this item free for a review. I have 2b curly hair and tried using this a few different ways. For it saying it's a gel it's actually a really nice creamy consistency! The smell of it was great. It was a little too heavy for my looser curls. I let my mom borrow it though who has course thicker and tighter curls and it worked like a charm for her. Defined curls with shine and no frizz! I think it's great for curlier hair!"
makes my hair so soft and frizz free!
"This product is great! as soon as I apply it in my hair, it feels incredibly soft, smooth, and manageable. it doesn't have as much hold as your typical gel, but I prefer that on days I don't feel like doing a whole curly routine! the smell is nice and light too. I feel like a little goes a long way"
Brought My Waves Back to Life!
"After heat styling, stress, and ignoring my hair I thought I completely lost my curl pattern. It was very curly when I was younger, but has just turned into a frizzy mess. From the first use of this cream, my hair was more defined and WAVY! It brought definition and bounce I haven't had in a long time, without any stiffness. My hair looks healthier without being greasy and heavy. I am excited to keep using it to hopefully bring back my natural texture completely. Feeling so confident!"
Best product I've used for curly hair!
"Thank you Odele for sending me this product to try for free. This is the best curl defining gel I've tried, the product is a nice consistency and not sticky like other gels. I've noticed a big difference in the amount of frizz in my hair after using this product for a week straight. The bottle is sleek and looks like a high end product. Would recommend."
Amazing Curling Gel - Great Definition
"I really liked this gel and can tell whenever I use it that the definition beats my regular gel. I love the simple ingredients, soft scent, and light weight texture. I appreciate how this doesn't weigh down my hair, but instead maximizes definition and hold. Would recommend!!"
Suited For Looser Curls
"I received this Curl Defining Gel in exchange for my honest review. Pros: It's very lightweight! The formula is similar to lotion which makes it not weigh so heavily on the hair. It seemed to also wash out pretty easily and didn't leave any annoying residue. Cons: It doesn't seem suited for someone that has very tight coils. It didn't really do much of anything for my hair and I didn't see a difference that was super noticeable! I believe someone with looser curls might see much more drastic benefits from it!"
