Our verdict

A soft hold gel cream that defines curls and waves while fighting frizz in humid weather. Hold stays soft, so tight styles or very heavy curls may want a firmer gel on top.

Overview

Not a crunchy gel and not a plain cream, the Nexxus Curl Define gel cream mixes gel hold with cream moisture to shape waves and curls, shield them from humidity and leave a soft, touchable finish.

Humidity protection with no crunch makes it a strong choice for curls that frizz in damp weather. Soft hold will not lock in very defined or long-lasting styles on coarse hair.

Who it's for

Wavy and curly hair in humid climates gets definition and frizz control without stiffness. Coily hair needing heavy hold may find it too light.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Long humidity shield
  • No crunch or stiffness
  • No build-up or sticky residue
Cons
  • Soft hold only
  • No hold rating for coarse hair

Performance notes

The gel side forms a light film that holds curl shape, while the cream side adds moisture so hair resists swelling in humidity. Applying to wet hair locks definition before frizz sets in.
