Curlsmith In-Shower Style Fixer is an extreme strong hold styling gel that provides long-lasting definition, humidity protection and shine for all curls.

Details

Benefits

  • Gives curls extreme definition
  • Long-lasting, weather-resistant results
  • Locks in water and hydration (that's why it's recommended to use in shower or on soaking wet hair)
  • Extreme hold (10/10), it creates a strong crunchy cast around the hair while drying
  • The 'cast' is key to trap moisture, keep frizz at bay and enhance definition, but the crunchy feeling is only temporary; once curls are completely dry you just need to gently "scrunch" your hair upwards to break the cast and reveal soft, defined results
  • Thick gel texture for ultimate control
  • Vegan, cruelty free, clean ingredients and curly girl friendly
  • Designed for all curls and texture types

Key Ingredients

  • Resurrection flower (aka Rose of Jericho), desert plant that survives up to 3 years without water, known for its moisture-retention properties
  • Andiroba, indigenous plant of the Amazon forest known for its nourishing properties
  • Avocado, Apricot Kernel and Sunflower oil for added nourishment
  • Aloe, Sage, Rosemary, Pepper and Basil extracts, known for their antioxidant properties

Formulated Without

  • Sulfates
  • Silicones
  • Drying alcohols

How To Use

Use on soaking wet hair. Take a dime sized amount per hair section. Rub it between your palms first. Smooth down the length of the hair, using the "praying hands" method. Scrunch gently upwards, then air dry or diffuse. When fully dry, scrunch again to break the cast. No residue, greasiness or crunch.

Love!!! There's a trick to it.

When I first bought this, I used it alone and I didn't like it. Used it about 3 times on different occasions and it was like whatever. I ended up Leaving it on the shelf for a while. Then I saw it again one day and decided to give it another try, using it my way. I use this in the shower, soaking we...

So disappointed!!

Sadly, I ended up hating this product. The reviewers are not wrong - the product gives you definition, but for me it was at a cost of losing volume and softness. Instead, my hair was flat, defined, stiff, and had some frizz (but this was minimal). I used it as directed (in the shower, soaking wet) a...

Hair Type Very Curly Hair

I lately started using this gel after so many curly hair girls recommended using a strong hold gel for long lasting curls, since im already a curlsmith girly and my hair is super frizzy ( 3b-3c ) i decided why not. I do not use this on soaking wet hair as suggested. I use a heat protectant, a curl cream or a leave in with heat protection and this gel, brush style and lock it in with a hairspray. I diffuse my hair for 30 mins until 80-90% dry and finish air dry. The hard cast is how i knowww my hair is gonna last. I use a lighweight oil and break the cast and im left with the softest and most defined curls with minimal frizz, and so much shine! I love this gel and The consistency is perfect for my frizzy hair. This gel really does define and lock that frizz away! 100/10 please make a jumbo size curlsmith.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

This product works well, the price is a little high, but I think it is worth it. I would give it an eight out of 10. The one thing you do have to make sure of is that your hair is wet, not damp, not almost dry absolutely soaking wet. I also like to dry my hair under a hooded dryer and I think that makes a difference. I have low porosity hair and my curl pattern is 4A.

Crunchy

My hair type is naturally like wild curly and not the thickest. I wanted to tame my curls. I tried to use this product a few times and each time my hair ended up being crunchy. I thought maybe i am not doing this correctly, maybe my hair is not wet enough or i am putting too much. Blow drying it or not still crunchy. To me this product is too thick.
