About SheaMoisture Defining Styling Gel For Thick, Curly Hair
Overall Feedback:
76% positive
66% were impressed with the added volume, although 34% weren't
Due to my hair thinning, thick gels no longer work well on my hair.
67% liked the texture, however 33% found it sticky
The gel's texture makes it difficult to spread evenly.
67% liked the glossy shine level
When I pair it with a boar bristle brush, the product creates a sleek and polished look that lasts all day without any stiffness.
The gel gave my curls definition, shine, and no frizz.
67% found it residue-free, while 33% struggled
I was expecting the gel to flake badly as per the reviews, but it turned out to be the opposite for my hair type. My hair loved the gel.
After the gel dries, it leaves a white residue all over my hair, which is not what I was expecting.
67% were satisfied with the longevity, but 33% weren't
Using a boar bristle brush with the product creates a perfect sleek look that lasts all day.
I have been using the product every day for months and it has lasted me for a long time.
I noticed that the gel barely lasted for a day, and I could tell from day one that it wouldn't make it to day 2.
69% appreciated the hold strength, but 31% found it too weak
This gel provides medium hold without crunchiness and lasts for days. It also adds moisture to my hair without greasiness and defines each curl individually.
I found the gel too tacky for my hair and it didn't glide down smoothly. The definition was just okay and the hold didn't work for me. Unfortunately, my hair looked old by day 2 and I only got 2 days out of the gel.
69% found it compatible with their hair type
For my 2c-3a curly/wavy hair, the product works great.
The product worked well with my naturally curly hair type, providing moisture without greasiness and defining every curl.
66% appreciated the flexibility for restyling, but 34% didn't
When I pair the product with a boar bristle brush, it creates a perfect slick that leaves my hair looking sleek and polished all day without any stiffness.
The gel worked like magic for me, giving definition, shine and no frizz to my curls.
I found this gel too tacky for my hair and it doesn't glide down smoothly.
