Best gel I've ever tried

This is the best gel I have ever tried. Usually my 2b/2c waves are limp within a few hours of drying no matter what products I apply. With this new stronger hold gel, my waves have held for days with minimal refreshing required. I was concerned that with the stronger hold it would make my hair too c...

I thought it was all gels, but it's just glycerin

I heard hundreds of recommendations for this gel when I started embracing my natural 2B-3A medium porosity hair. I bought it without question, and even ordered a second bottle (the huge one, too) after the first ran out. I thought the dryness/straw texture my hair got after application was just par ...

My all time favorite, holy grail, GOAT hair gel! I've struggled with frizzy hair since puberty. This gel along with a moisturizing leave in is perfection. I get tons of compliments on my curly mane. Thanks Quidad!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

I have 4a hair i was expecting quite a hold but my hair became frizzy with undifined roots and lacked definition. It didn't create a cast like a topper gel would I was dissaponited espically for the price point it is set at.

Excellent IF You Can Stand The Smell

Submitted 1 month ago

By Chris

From Oregon

This is a cult classic for a reason, and it's for literally everything about it except the fragrance. It is a thin fluid gel with excellent slip, making it a dream to distribute through any curl pattern. It provides next-level shine and contains many flexible holding agents which means you can scrunch out the crunch and still get good style retention. If you have fine or lower density hair, you can probably get away with just using this gel as it is moisturizing to an extent. When it comes to the fragrance in this product (in basically all of the products from this line) be prepared. I am going to describe exactly what it smells like: A sunflower fell into your grandmother's Coty Airspun Powder and then danced around her bedroom while all of her perfumes circled around and sprayed continuously. If you can handle that, then this gel is hard to beat. Also, if you can handle that I have questions. TLDR: Excellent gel ruined by the awful fragrance selection Ouidad seems determined to keep making.

Holy Grail

From Moreno Valley, CA

i recently tried this product along with the OUAI curl creme and it works so well for my hair it doesnt weight it down. When i was styling my curls stayed with definition and its holding very well my hair is wavy and curly on the top half of my hair. The smell is also great its smells like fresh roses. Definitely give it a try.
