Oooh, smells lovely, feels great, no crunchies

Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2015

Hey, I'm a sap for trying interesting new beauty products (well, new to me anyway). I know this is generally marketed as for children's hair, but I have curly hair that needs a little something extra to keep the curls from wilting, but not give me that horrible crunchy texture. Crunch is for fried chicken, not hair! This gel is really wonderful and smells divine, similar to coconut. It doesn't feel sticky on your hair, it will give just enough added body to keep the droops away, and if you want to brush or comb it out, it's light enough that you can do so without thinking you're pulling your precious hairs off your head. Don't you just hate that, when you've used hair gel, then you want a softer look later in the day, you brush your hair and sheesh -- why are all those hairs in my brush? I haven't had any problems with flakes like another reviewer, but everyone's hair is different, as well as the amount of gel we use. I think if you try just one tube of this you'll fall in love with it. The seller isn't overcharging for what is considered a high-end hair gel, so kudos for that too. Aw, go ahead, you know you want to!

Not much hold for boys

Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2023

Like it but not much hold for little boys hair. It does hold decent for toddler curls.

Smells amazing - not enough to do spikey hairstyles for little boys, but still good product for giving texture.

I love how this hair gel smells, and when my son was younger (under 2) with finer hair, it worked great for his short, spikey hair. Now that he's older and his hair is getting thicker (3.5yrs old), it doesn't hold up his hair, as well. I still use it because the smell is intoxicating, but I have to mix it with other pomades/ waxes and/or hairspray in order to get his hair to style the way I want. It is nice because it's light and not greasy; wears really well - doesn't build up and get gunky. Would probably be good for non-spikey/Mohawk type styles- maybe combing hair to the side? Like I said, though, the smell alone makes it worth mixing in. I've even used it on my hair to accentuate curls.

No hold but does great with the frizz

I got this for my 3 year old and 5 year old. I really like this gel, it’s not too sticky or too harsh. I wish it would have a little bit of hold to it. This gel definitely will not hold style, so if u wanted to spike your kids hair up, this is not going to do that but it does tame it. My boys wake up with crazy hair sticking out from everywhere and I put this gel on their hair and brush it and it looks nice and neat but after about 30 minutes later the gel dries and hair style goes away but it does keep their hair down and decent so it really does help with the frizzy hair.

Says it is for Babies, but I love it for my hair. I am an older male. It is the only hair gel I have used for the last 7 years. No odor, no sticky feeling, no grease, just a nice finish to my hair

Low Hold

Does not hold hair very well. I would say this is extremely low hold, nowhere near medium to strong.

Good stuff!

Verified Purchase

I love this for my daughter's hair. It is creamy and smells great, not sticky, leaves hair soft and curly, not scrunchy at all. BEWARE THE SELLER THOUGH. The first time I bought this it was not what it was supposed to be (steer clear of "Etailz"). I found a new seller ("ASAP Beauty") and theirs is the genuine article. I use it on myself as well sometimes, but because both of us have really thick hair it doesn't last that long & is sort of pricey, but worth it.

Love the ingredients but no hold

Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2023

Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

I have 2b to 3a curls so I prefer a stronger hold for my looser curl patterns to keep their shape but as great as the ingredients list is in this product it didn’t hold up for me. I would get maybe 15 minutes of my desired look then my curls would kind of get frizzy and lose the curl definition.

It works just like a chemical-free product would be expected to.

Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2018

Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

Those who use natural, organic products will probably like this. I was reluctant to order this because other reviewers said it doesn't work. It does, just like a natural product would be expected to. You can't compare chemically-laden products with all-natural ones.. something has to give if you are trying to avoid chemicals. No, your hair won't be stiff and whipped into shape using this, but it does control frizz and helps keep your style. I like to use it to protect my hair against the harsh heat of the blow dryer. This product makes my hair really soft!
