Curl Defining Gel - Gel for waves, curls, and coils

Not for me

For someone with mixed hair it truly did nothing would not recommend

I bought this two times for my does nothing for him and leaves his hair frizzy

By far the best gel I’ve tried

I have thick, stubborn curls that I never wear natural because they’re just too frizzy and messy. This gel does a great job at reducing my frizz, giving my curls hold, and it doesn’t leave them crunchy! It’s really helped me gain confidence again in my curls

New favorite!

This curl defining Gel it’s amazing ! Works so good , smell is amazing ,shiny ,it’s not thick . This is my favorite ! I highly recommend this product to anyone who likes light gel !

A good try!

This product is definitely good but you have to use at least three pumps of product, I apply this to wet clean hair and if you use multiple pumps it looks great! But I would say it runs out fast this way but it may just be my hair wh

my favourite curl gel. my curls look beautiful and shapely and hold their shape for days without being crunchy

dried my hair and would not use the product line again.

Not what it claims

Made my hair frizzy and dry, hold is way too light for my short hair. Probably good for long styles but I will be returning.

Soooooo good highly recommend !!!! Makes my curls nice and tight and holds through the entire day. Takes away all frizz and smells amazing!

Not buying again

Just felt wrong sitting on my scalp. And it frizzed my hair.

Ok hold but made hair dry and frizzy

Provided decent hold but didn’t help with frizz and made my hair feel so so sooo dry. Ended up returning after a few uses—just couldn’t get it to work for me.

Best not to use daily; leaves hair like straw

My hair has never looked better than when I've used Living Proof products... but this gel surprised me in a bad way. For context, I have virgin hair that has definitely not been abused: no chemical treatments of any kind in over 15 years, I rarely use styling products at all, and I haven't used heat *styling* in about 2 decades either. However, my hair has been majorly messed-up by a long-standing iron deficiency: years of deficiency have left my hair finer with lots of shedding, and most of my natural curl has even straightened out and become lank (something that also can happen with an iron deficiency if it's severe or long-standing enough). When I use curl-defining products, they do help to "revive" the curl I still have, but the thinness of my hair means that most products weigh it down flat. I used Living Proof's curl defining CREAM before and loved it (soft, shiny, defined, bouncy curls where formerly there was amorphous frizz!), so I thought I'd try the gel. How does the gel perform? Yes, this product defines my curls (sometimes), and the hold is (usually) weightless. I love, love, love when it weightlessly holds. However, it bunches my hair together and makes the curls look less soft and voluminous *without adding any shine*. But most importantly, if I use this gel for more than 1 consecutive day, my hair quickly starts looking like straw and gets bizarrely tangle-prone. I can even see in the shower that my hair starts absorbing less water if I've been using this product for 2 or 3 days in a week. Something that has this effect on hair texture and porosity CAN'T be good for my strands for the long-term, so instead I save this product only for special outings a few times a month (for the weightless hold and the definition). If they sold a mini size, I'd say it'd be worth having on-hand for special occasions. Otherwise, there is no WAY I could finish a bottle of this size in a year; my hair would dry out and snap off way before I got to the end.
