Our verdict

A moisturizing gel cream that defines and stretches coils with flexible, flake-free hold. Hold is soft, so very dense coils may want a stronger gel on top.

Overview

A gel cream that wraps each strand in black castor oil and aloe does the work here, adding moisture, stretching coils for elongation and setting a smooth, flexible hold with no crunch or flakes.

Elongation and moisture with no flaking suit coily hair that shrinks and dries out. The hold is flexible rather than firm, so long-lasting sets may need layering.

Who it's for

Coils prone to shrinkage and dryness benefit from a moisturizing gel cream. People with loose waves may find it heavy.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Flake-free, no crunch
  • Encourages curl elongation
  • Black castor oil strengthens
  • Clean free-from list
Cons
  • Hold is flexible only
  • Scent listed as argan, unclear
  • Heavy for loose waves

Performance notes

Cream moisture lets coils clump and stretch while the gel component sets them, so applying to soaking wet hair gives the most elongation. A protective film helps hold moisture in.
