I was worried about dryness, but when I used oil, the weight of the oil would take the curls out of my hair, so I was troubled. I just found this newly released product and tried it, and was impressed with how the curls I had created with the iron came out beautifully. There was no stickiness, and my hair looked shiny and beautiful. The scent was natural and not too strong, which was nice. I'm not sure how well it would hold my hair in place, but I liked it. I think I'll try using the cape to finish it off.
The scent is nice and the curls stayed in place all day! I want to buy this again.
I used it before using a hair iron. I didn't feel it had much hold. I didn't feel it was particularly good compared to styling oils.
I love this brand, so I was looking forward to it! I bought it on the day it was released and used it right away. It didn't suit my hair type (thick + frizzy), and it made my hair dry.I don't recommend it for people who like heavy oils.
I use it before using a hair iron. I love the scent, so I'm happy with just that, but I also like that it keeps my hair shiny and wet. My husband and I use it together, so it can be used by both men and women. It has a nice, not too sweet scent. The only negative point is the price. Also, the texture is a bit smooth, or rather runny, so I think it would be easier to use if it was a little more viscous.
