17 Best Hair Gels
Guest's Rating & Review
What makes this alcohol-free gel stand out above the rest is the fact that crunchy stiffness (which can be a problem with strong-hold gels) is blissfully absent. Expect to get plenty of shine along with a crisp, flowery scent, but don't expect to get "defined, bouncy ringlets" without setting hair in pin curls (unless you're naturally endowed with tight, thick curls). It takes quite a bit of product to get good definition on naturally wavy hair but luckily, the price is low.

So sad it's being discontinued!
I have had a love hate relationship with this product for the last few years. It's been a constant experiment of using different leave-in conditioning product in conjunction with it and applying more or less of it. Too much and your hair is crunchy and flat. Too little and it's poofs and frizz galore! Just enough: Perfection. I have finally found the perfect combo to get soft, crunch free, frizz f...read moreree, touchable curls. So...of course....THEY DISCONTINUE IT! A few spritzes of Pantene detangler and light conditioning mist, a dab of coconut oil worked through just the ends, a quarter size blob of gel(no bigger or smaller)rubbed in my hands and then finger combed through(ends first) was finally the perfect curly routine. I will now go to as many stores as possible that sell this and stock up as soon as payday comes around again. That will buy me some time to find a replacement hopefully(if an adequate one exists). I am so disappointed that they're not selling this anymore. This gel gave me the perfect weightless, frizz-free, spiral ringlets without making my hair sticky. Stock up while you can ladies!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

AMAZING!
This stuff is amazing, especially for the price! It is probobly tied with Herbal Essence Set Me Up gel for me. My two faves! This gel moisturizes my curls, makes them super shiny and yes actually BOUNCY like it says, Some gels seperate my curls more and give me tiny little curls all over my head but with this one larger sections of hair lock together and curl! It looks more natural than Herbal Ess...read moreence I think but I still love Herbal Essence. This has a light smell and is just awesome. I used this after going swimming(CHLORINE=weeks to wash out and damaging to hair) and I washed my hair with TRESemme moisture rich shampoo and conditioner then put this in my hair and my curls looked amazing! I love this product! I'd also like to add I'm south asian and my curls are loose and wavy. Sometimes I have some spiral at the ends.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 3 people said helpful

awesome!
i wasn't sure about this when i went to buy it. only because i heard gels could make your hair crunch and all. but this one didn't! only if you put on too much. it made my hair soft, like really soft. and it made my hair a lot curlier. which is a HUGE plus. i love it. will probably repurchase.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 8 of 9 people said helpful
