Overview

Curly haired stylers who need definition to last get a strong hold gel whose Memory Interlock Technology forms a lightweight lattice around the curl pattern. An omega complex in the formula targets dry areas as it sets.

Hold that lasts is the reason to buy it, with a lattice film meant to stop curls from loosening. The listing does not say how it finishes or whether it leaves a cast.

Who it's for

Suits defined curl styles that need to survive several days and active schedules. People who dislike any stiffness in their hair should reach for a light cream or mousse instead.

Performance notes

Definition holds because the gel forms a lightweight lattice that sets around each curl as it dries, resisting the pull that loosens the pattern. How long the style lasts depends on leaving curls untouched until fully dry.
