My Review:

Where to start? The good. Ok. The smell. This product smells really good. I have no idea how to describe this smell though. It isn't fruity. This was another one of my "I don't have my normal product on me and washing my hair can't wait" purchases. I tried this product on freshly washed hair and also used the accompanying leave-in conditioner. What I found with this product is:


  • It doesn't provide enough hold for my hair to do twist or braid outs
  • It doesn't define curls without shrinkage. In fact my hair seemed to shrink MORE
  • It didn't define my curls. Upon drying my hair looked rather bushy.


In summary, I was underwhelmed. Would I recommend this product to a friend? Not at all. In my opinion this product doesn't deliver on its claims and at least for Walgreens is pretty pricey. For a few bucks less you can get a more effective cream product.
