Curly Hair Solutions Gel with panthenol gives ultimate holding power without flakiness or crispiness. A water-based formula, C.H.S. Gel leaves no product buildup and supports styles longer. Great for scrunching, styling with brushes, blow-drying or drying naturally.
davidinaustin - Hair Type: 2b This is some serious stuff. It may work better with curlier hair - it was definitely overkill for me. However, I used it a slightly different way and loved the effect: I just smoothed a little over dry hair, just on the outside, and it totally controlled the frizz factor. Again, my hair is mostly wavy, so crazy curls may have a different experience. A bit too much of a high school girl's hairspray smell, but it dissipates quickly. Still, that's not a memory one wants first thing in the morning, so I recommend this as a touch up product right before you go out for some cocktails.

ArcEnCiel - Hair Type: 3b I like this gel a lot. I mix it with Curl Keeper. It is not an HG but it will do for now.

FrizzBgone - Hair Type: 3a I like this gel a lot. I got good curl formation and clumping. Not too scrunchy. Works well after CK.

deepredringlets - Hair Type: 3a This did nothing for my hair, just like the rest of this line. Not enough hold and my hair felt producty after using it.

Meezer - Hair Type: 3a This is a very average gel, that's part of an above average line. CHS makes some other excellent products, but this gel is very standard. There are better ones out there for curlyheads. The hold was mediocre. There really was nothing 'special'.

tmccray - Hair Type: 3a I did get some crunch with this. If used with Curl Keeper, I lose the soft feel that CK provides.
