Awful, just awful. Most of the negative reviews prior to mine pretty much say it all, but here's my 2 cents anyway. I have shoulder length thick 3b/3c hair, the exact "thick and curly" hair they s...Read more

This is my favorite gel to use, I don't use any other gel in my hair. I have very thick, long, curly, and frizzy hair. I don't mind a little frizz, but anyways this product smells super good, it remin...Read more

This is in my rotation of curl products, but it's not something I reach for often. It enhances and defines waves, but it leaves my thick, past-the-shoulders hair with that wet look. If I use too muc...Read more

This is a good gel to use with the rest of the Shea Moisture line of products. I usually use this product on the ends only because it has a heavier feel and helps hold the curls in place.

I have 2b curls, thick, frizzy, very dry. I put the souffle evenly on my wet clean hair and let air dry. It brought out curls with not much frizz. However, if I touch the hair, it feels slightly crun...Read more

I agree with the reviewer below, this felt funny - kinda oily, kinda sticky. I have very fine 2a/2b hair, but a lot of it, and I adore Shea Moisture products, but this one seems to be the exception. ...Read more

I was expecting this to be more like a gel, ya know you'd apply it and it would eventually dry. But it has an odd sticky and oily feel that doesn't seem to go away. I mean it dried but when you touch ...Read more

This product is awesome. I use enough to cover my finger tips and holds my curls for 3 to 4 days. Makes them extremely shinny. I have 3b thin, fine, colored hair.

This is working well for me. My hair is long, coarse (some gray), thick, and wavy with ends that turn into coils when it gets long enough (is that 3b/3c? I can never remember!) I guess I'm on a modif...Read more
