CabreiaAs soon as I put it on my hair, it did what it needed to do. My curls have never looked so defined with just one product. The best part is that my hair is still so soft after applying it. 
Emilee  THIS IS IT!!! This stuff changed my life. After searching for the last three years for the perfect gel after going natural, I finally found it! No flakes, curls defined and SHINY for days, I’m obsessed! I can go a whole week off one wash after putting just this gel in and honestly, what more could a girl ask for?!?!   
PhreshgleauxMy curls can last for at least two weeks and I don’t need any more products through the week. My curls aren’t crunchy, they stay juicy and if need be I can simply reset with a spritz of water.

Intisar  I am so proud and elated to find this product. The definition, hold, and shine this product creates beats them all. I have 4c hair and nothing brings out my curls like this. The kicker? It’s black and veteran owned!   
Chris  It really is a one-and-done MIRACLE. They made magic with this product. I distribute 2-3 pumps thoroughly throughout my entire hair while its damp, then apply more to finger coil, focusing on the crown of my head where my curls are the tightest and most prone to friz…   
DestiniI just ordered my third bottle! I can use this one product as my leave in AND as a styler…that is why I love it! Saves me time and energy. I mainly use it to style my wash and gos. It gives me a nice hold that is still soft to touch. I’ve never used anything like it.
