Gretchen - Hair Type: 3a Used in combination with Structura Lotion, this stuff is amazing. Great, piecy curls. I like the COntrol II a bit better for its extra hold, but this is a really great gel.

laurabeth33 - Hair Type: 2b This gel is not designed to be used on its own. Curlisto made it to be combined with their Structura Lotion to add humidity resistance and hold to their Lotion (their primary styling product). The Structura Lotion gave me that wonderful piecy definition I was wanting, and the Control I gel helped hold it in place, even in rainy or super hot-humid FL days. However, the hold wasn't long lasting and the definition fell midday, despite a very generous application. Zero frizz and minimal flyaways so the hold not lasting didn't allow frizz to happen. Instead, the definition was the only thing that fell. Excellent for humidity with high temps. So-so hold. Can't touch your hair or be in wind or it instantly goes away. Horrible when used without Structura Lotion, which makes the $24 price tag even higher with the Lotion having to be purchased as well.

Michelle B - Hair Type: 3b A great, thick gel that really kept away the frizz and gave good curl formation. Nice smell.

suzcurly - Hair Type: 2b I like this gel when I mix it with the Bio-Gel Mousse. Makes for good clumpy curls and hold. On humid days I use more of the gel than mousse and it keeps the frizz under control. I don't like this gel alone, but who uses any product just on its own anyway?
