The scent of the curl creme is light and fresh.
The scent of our product is amazing, sweet with hints of floral.

87% were satisfied with the longevity, but 13% weren't
I finally found a product that helps with my curls by adding moisture, hold, and reducing frizz after 40 years of trying to manage them.

I can maintain my hair style for 3 days without any refresh with this product.
The gel has an extreme hold.
On the first day, the hold was good, but soon my hair felt waxy and extremely dry. The hold completely ran out the next day, and refreshing was nearly impossible.
77% liked the heat protection
This product has a stronger hold/barrier in humidity compared to ouidad. My hair looked fresh and had no frizz for over 3 days.
88% found it compatible with their hair type, while 12% didn't
I applied the product at the end of my shower and let my hair air dry, and it turned out perfect. This indicates that the product is compatible with my hair type and I am satisfied with the results.
