"Much stickier than the Climate Control and I find it has less hold, though it's possible I didn't use enough, kept having to add water to keep my hair from sticking to my hands. If you like a grippy, not slippy gel, you will like this. Hair looks ok, feels great but frizz and disorder much more than with the red label climate control gel."
"Noticeably reduces frizz, even when my hair is exposed to heat or moisture. I really liked the texture of this product. It wasn't too heavy for my fine curls. Fantastic conditioner! It detangles so easily, and my curls feel so smooth."
"Nice balance between control and softness. Lightweight styling cream with great volume. This conditioner left my curls soft and easy to detangle."
"I used to use the Deva Curl Supreme Hold gel and they quit making it. This is the best replacement that I have found. It holds without feeling stiff or sticky. My hair isn't frizzy. My curls stay defined for 2 full days and sometimes I get a 3rd day which is rare! It doesn't feel like I have product in my hair after I break the cast. It just looks great! I'll be using this for as long as they make it!!"
"The fragrance is strong, but frizz control is good. Soft curls, but volume could improve. This is a holy grail for curly hair! It defines my curls and adds shine."
"Great hold and volume, but needs more moisture. Good frizz control, but lacks volume. Works okay, but I need something with stronger hold."
"Does not dry out my hair, which is rare for a curl focused cleansing product. Great choice when I want body without sacrificing curl shape. Does exactly what it claims for curl control."
"A friend recommended you guys and said your product would work on my hair so I took the quiz and gave it a shot. Was hoping the gel would maybe actually give some definition to my curls. I'm a 4C girl. I was left with white flakes and the same old lousy mess I get from other products. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? Overall, just another waste of money, but if I discover something I didn't know, i will change my rating. It's too bad these products don't come with a tutuorial video for 4C girls. not the ones who make it look easy on YouTube, but actual REAL EVERYDAY PEOPLE who have given up on their hair and figured out a few things. It made me highlight key benefit. There isn't any so far, so I put "detox" because it forced me to."
"I was very happy with how strong hold this gel is"
"I have never seen a gel like this before. The best way that I can describe it is that it’s watery and offers no hold. Curls fall flat almost immediately. There’s no smell which is great for me but that’s the only pro in my opinion. Maybe the gel isn’t right for my curls. Sadly I am considering throwing this out. I never waste product and always try to make it work. Not sure how to do that with this gel. Everytime I use it my hair turns out flat :("
