It Keeps My Hair in Place

This product has a medium hold, which is just right for me. While it's not as strong as a wax, it still does a good job of keeping my hair styled throughout the day.

Good for Adding Definition and Body

This product does a good job of adding definition and body to my hair. It works well for enhancing and controlling my curls, as well as lifting and separating strands. It's a decent option.

Reasonably Priced, but Leaves Residue

This product is reasonably priced, which is a positive. However, it leaves a helmet-head residue in my hair.

Smells Nice and Looks Natural

This product has a crisp and clean scent that I really like. When I use it, my hair looks natural and not greasy or oily. It gives me a professional look without being too rigid.

Feels Sticky and Heavy with Too Much

If I apply too much of this product, my hair can feel sticky and heavy, which I don't like. It can also make my hair look crunchy and dry. I would be careful not to use too much.

This product is adept at creating natural-looking styles, allowing users to mold their hair into the desired shape without imparting a greasy or oily appearance. It excels in enhancing and controlling curls, lifting and separating strands, and adding both definition and body to the hair.
