Product Results

Rating: 4 out of 5.

This product was light enough that it worked on thin hair but is also effective for thick hair too. Works best for both short and medium styled hair, for long hair it was a bit difficult to get all the strands evenly coated. I suggest using a wide toothed comb if necessary and then scrunching for curly hair. Once the product dries it leaves a “crunchy” shell over the strands. Please do not brush your hair after it dries or it’ll damage it. The only thing I didn’t like was the alcohol in it which isn’t good for curly hair types that need hydration to keep curls healthy. This product works better for straight hair types.
