Our verdict

A light volumizing jelly that defines loose curls and waves with soft hold and no crunch. Hold is soft, so tighter curls in humidity may need more control.

Overview

Not a stiff gel, Ouidad Out of Thin (H)Air is a light jelly that adds volume and soft definition to loose curls and waves. Aloe, panthenol and red algae extract keep it moisturizing rather than drying.

Definition with volume for fine, loose curls is the case for it, since heavy gels flatten thin hair. The soft hold is the limit in humid weather or for tighter curl patterns.

Who it's for

Fine waves and loose curls suit the light jelly. People needing firm, humidity-proof hold should look at a stronger gel.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Volume without weight
  • Soft hold, no crunch
  • Full ingredient list given
  • Silicone and sulfate free
Cons
  • Soft hold only
  • Less suited to tight curls

Performance notes

The jelly forms a light film that holds curl clumps as they dry, while staying flexible enough to avoid crunch. Applying to wet roots and lifting while drying builds volume.
