Enhances Shine and Glossiness
The fresh smell of the product is absolutely amazing, making my hair look vibrant and healthy.
Hold Doesn't Last Long
Unfortunately, the hold didn't last long, requiring me to use a satin scarf or brush to keep my curls in place.
Thick Consistency
The thick texture of the product means a little goes a long way, giving my hair a beautiful appearance.
Dried Out Hair Feeling
Over-application left my hair feeling dry and crunchy, which was disappointing despite the easy washout.
Slow Drying Time
The thick consistency led to a slower drying time, affecting my curl/wave pattern.
The Eco Style Black Castor and Flaxseed Oil Styling Gel offers a light-to-medium hold, enhanced by a fresh smell that adds a pleasant touch to the styling experience. While the hold isn't super strong, it effectively enhances hair's shine and glossiness, providing a healthy and vibrant look.
This gel has a very thick consistency, suggesting that a little goes a long way, which is beneficial for defining curl and wave patterns without using excessive amounts. Priced between $3.99 and $5.99, it's an affordable option for those looking to maintain natural waves and add hydration and shine. It works exceptionally well on curly, wavy, thick, and frizzy hair types by offering hold without weighing the hair down.
Despite its virtues, the gel is light enough to last all day and can be easily rinsed out, leaving hair feeling clean and refreshed. However, users should be cautious with the amount applied; excessive use can leave hair dry and crunchy, potentially leading to a dried-out feeling if over-applied.
