“Perfect Hold and Shine for Braids – A Must-Have for Neat Styles!”

I recently purchased Braiding Gel from Amazon, and I am so pleased with the results! As someone who does my own braids and frequently styles my hair into various protective styles, I’ve been searching for a product that provides a strong hold without leaving my hair crunchy or greasy. This gel has completely exceeded my expectations in every way. Here’s a detailed review of my experience:Packaging and PresentationThe gel arrived in a well-sealed container, and the packaging was both practical and neat. The container is a generous size ( [specify size, e.g., 8 oz] ), so it should last through several uses. The jar is easy to open and close, with a secure lid that keeps the gel fresh. I love that it’s compact and easy to store, but still provides plenty of product for multiple styling sessions.Texture and ConsistencyThe consistency of this braiding gel is perfect. It’s not too thick or runny, but just the right amount of tackiness to smooth and hold the hair in place. The gel is clear and lightweight, making it easy to apply evenly to my hair without leaving any visible residue. It’s not sticky in a way that makes it uncomfortable to handle, and it doesn’t leave any greasy or oily feel behind after application. My hands remain clean, and I don’t have to worry about excess product getting on my clothes.Hold and PerformanceThe hold is incredible! Whether I’m creating cornrows, box braids, or twists, this gel keeps my hair in place all day without any flaking or frizz. It tames flyaways and keeps edges neat, allowing me to get the sharp, clean look I love in my braids. Even on hot and humid days, my braids stay intact without any slippage or loosening, making this gel a great option for long-lasting styles. I can also use it on my edges to create a smooth, laid-back look, and it holds them in place for hours without reapplying.Shine and FinishAnother fantastic feature of this gel is the natural shine it provides. It gives my braids a healthy, glossy finish that looks vibrant but not overly shiny or greasy. This adds to the overall appearance of the braids, giving them that salon-quality look. I also appreciate that the gel doesn’t leave any white residue, unlike other products I’ve tried, which often leave a cloudy or flaky finish after drying.Ease of ApplicationApplying the gel is a breeze. The smooth texture glides onto my hair easily and doesn’t require excessive rubbing or pulling. It’s perfect for getting a sleek, smooth finish, and I can apply it sparingly to specific areas like my edges or throughout the entire braid for a flawless hold. It doesn’t get hard or crunchy as it dries, making it comfortable to wear all day. Plus, it doesn’t leave my hair feeling stiff, which is essential for maintaining the natural feel of my braids.Long-Lasting ResultsWhat I love most about this braiding gel is how long it keeps my braids looking fresh. I’ve used it for several protective styles, and each time, I’m amazed by how well it keeps everything in place. Even after wearing braids for several days, the gel doesn’t lose its grip. I’ve also noticed that my hair stays moisturized, so I don’t need to apply additional products to keep it hydrated. The gel seems to prevent excessive dryness or flaking while maintaining the structure of my braids.Final ThoughtsOverall, I highly recommend this Braiding Gel for anyone who braids their hair or styles it in protective styles regularly. The hold is strong yet flexible, the shine is natural, and it doesn’t leave any sticky or greasy residue. It’s easy to use, provides long-lasting results, and helps keep my braids looking neat and tidy. I’m definitely going to continue using this gel in my routine, and I’ll be repurchasing once I run out!

Best Loc and Twist Gel Ever Made!

Best holding gel I’ve ever used. I’ve used a lot of different products and none like this. It really really holds and DOES NOT LEAVE ANY WHITE RESIDUE. You don’t need to use any other products and none with it. I used it to twist my natural hair around my faux boho butterfly crochet Locs. It blended perfect and held perfect also. Value for money:Great price for a great productHair type:I have type 4c Functionality:Great for all holding stylesShine:leaves your hair spooking hydrated and not dry.

THE ABSOLUTE FREAKING BEST!!!

I’ve seen a lot of BS brands taunted as having the best hold, the best shine, the best this, the best that and hundreds of dollars and many products later, none can hold a flame to this. THIS brand and product consistently remains true to what it claims. I just wish they made a mega container, lol. (Side note: I rarely comment unless something is reeeeally bad or reeeeeally good. I have never promoted anything to receiver free anything, and I don’t plan to. I wanted to post about this because this stuff is genuinely just that good.)

Dries fast

I used it for braiding my hair. It’s like Jam so it dries quickly I had to keep reapplying as I braided. I think I went through it too fast and had to find something else once it ran out. I did a full head of medium box braids and this jar wasn’t enough. I’ll have to find something that is a little more water based. I need to find the old school pro con gel. It was cheaper and worked great

NO FLAKE!

As a black girl, castor oil and coconut oil are my favourite products for my 4C hair and when I came across this product, I did not hesitate to buy it. This edge control is amazing. I can assure you, there are no flakes using this product. I used it in my 11 year old daughter’s hair and I had no issues.

Great product, great price!

This product is 5 stars. Smells so nice, holds 200% and is not sticky or leaves behind a fuzzy residue. I am able to lock in curls, locks, twist and edges with just a dab and it holds up well in water, easy applications, simple ingredients and washes right out without breaking the hair!I love this product🤗

Gel ok but the container is not good

Why did you pick this product vs others?:The product came open with the top stuck in it, I had to break the top to get it out, most of the product was wasted trying to remove the top. I'll stick to purchasing thr smaller version of this. When the replacement came the top was off and in the bag. Maybe it's just a manufacturing error. The gel however is sturdy and does my hair well.

Buy it and all of your life's problems will be solved

Accidentally bought 3 thinking it would be one bigger container. First time trying it. Took a risk. Blind buy. I put it on my dry hair and it has an edge control consistency as far as the product hold on dry hair. But then, I wet it a little after noticing that my curls were too straight from the product. It soaped up kinda and became more slick to run my fingers through. This is a game changer. You're telling me I don't need mousse and gel combo anymore, it defines my curls, uses amazing ingredients, and isn't too heavy or flaky? I have been searching for this my entire life and so many curl products have failed me over and over again. This EXCEEDS my expectations by far. PLEASE NEVER CHANGE THE FORMULA OR ANYTHING I WILL USE IT FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE
