This product works perfectly ok when it comes to laying down the edges. The downfall is the fact that it leaves white flakes and breaks my edges. I love the smell and consistency. It's neither hard and nor is it too soft, it's nice and thick. It probably can work better on someone else.
In terms of price, I find it afforable in comparsion to other edge gel's, however the strong hold does not last whole day. When applying its puts it down well and adds some shine but after a few hours it changes colour and looks dull, the hold is not too tight either. I like the consistency because it is thick in comparison to others but that is the only thing I like about it.
I don't know why as curlies we seem to have a need to sleek our hair down and tame it to do what it was not designed to do but anyway, asikho lapho.
It is a clear gel that you apply to your edges and you sleek them down with a brush or something that will have the same effect.
This gel smells like a gel. Nothing special really. If you sweat a bit in your day, that scent will come through and you will notice it.
Does it sleek down the edges? Yes. My hair is quite curly so not long after that it would revert to its cute little curls, making the the "control" ineffective. I didn't find it hydrating for my hair type as well.
Use it up as quickly as you can and store it in a cool & dry place else it starts getting a bit mouldy.
Applying too much or re-applying later in the day will leave you with crusty residue when the gel dries up.
My process: 1. Apply gel to edges 2. Sleek down with a brush (toothbrush, most commonly used tool for this purpose) 3. Tie a silk scarf to make sure that edges lay down 4. Finish doing make-up 5. Remove scarf making sure gel is dry 6.Slay the day
