Very unique. A great, light finishing spray. A little goes a long way.

I love this product! I agree with the other reviewer who said it smells like skittles! It smells awesome and is very easy to use. The spray is even and instantly makes my hair feel more conditioned. I have really dry hair and asked Shari what to use. She said this is all I need for a styler. She was right!

Love this for second or third day hair, especially after sleeping. It revives my 3b curls and clumps them back together in no time! Two things that keep it from being 5 stars - my hair definitely has to be shampooed afterwards - I can't go another day after using much of this, or my hair feels sticky and matted; also, I'm not wild about the scent, which reminds me of Alka-Seltzer cold medicine. It's perfect for a hair reviver, though, so I will definitely keep using it!

This product didn't add value to my style. Made my hair feel gummy and sort of wet. Tried using it a couple of different ways but no noticieable improvement in style or manageability.

I just got this in the travel size today with the other products, AWESOME!!! I put it on my hands and scrunched it in wet hair and then Angell and it worked!! I have spent 2 weeks trying the CG method and had mixed results, but now my curls look great!! I will be getting the full size of all Devacurl.

My stylist gave me a great Deva cut and then styled my 3b hair using this and ArcAngell. They worked great together. I had used this before with very poor results, but she told me, "sometimes the directions on how to use a product aren't exactly 'right.' " Basically, she experimented with the product to find a use that would giver better results. Instead of using as a finishing or even a 2nd day spray, she sprayed it onto my wet hair, then scrunched in ArcAngell, then blotted dry with paper towels. My hair never looked better!

Ok, so I used to just spray this product on my hair and it did not work very well. I saw what other people were saying, and I tried spraying it on my hands and then scrunching it into my dry hair on the second day. Voila! hair magic. It defined my curls and wasn't sticky or stiff. I left them feeling soft and moisturized. I think I am going to start using it before my gel (love FOTE!). The fragrance isn't my fave which is why I gave it only 3 curls.

The first thing I noticed about this product was its overly perfumed scent, so strong that it made my eyes burn. It also felt a bit gummy after my hair dried. I didn't want to pitch it out, so I diluted it 1:1 with water and the effect was much better. Needless to say, once it's gone, that's it for Set it Free.

This works well to revive next day curls. It makes them shiny and refreshed. I love the yummy citrus scent. I pump a little in my hands and scrunch it into my hair for better distribution. You only need a little to get results.

3B hair Maybe I'm using this wrong, but it just doesn't do anything for me. I was hoping it'd cut down on frizz. Nope. I've used is as a last step on wet hair, and I've used it on dry hair, and still nothing. It was a waste of money.

I really like Deva a lot! this product is pretty good - I like it with the gel, they seem to work real well together. it's pretty light but too much can get crunchy...has a great scent, very light!

GREAT product for those days you don't want to wash your hair, but revitalize the curl. You can't just spray it on, you've got to scrunch/shape the curl. With my recent short cut (from 11 in. longer), this is a lifesaver :) Not sure it would do the trick with my "old long hair" though.

Wonderful product! I like to use it on dry hair to make my hair behave all day. Italso can magically bring my curls and waves back to life if I'm having a bad hair day. A little goes a long way on my fine hair which makes this a good buy. I prefer it over Curl Keeper for locking out frizz.

This product is the only one in this line that I am really happy with. You don't need a lot and it works really well. It is great to boost up your curls mid day. I also like to use it to hold my curls.

i love set it free! i think it is how you use it, i started using it a year ago, only on dry hair. while i loved what it did for my hair, i hated the smell. now i no poo, then one condition, and leave in a lot of one condition, then blot dry my hair, spray in set it free, then style. it curls my hair, keeps frizz away, my hair is soft, curly and shiny. i think cutting down on other products and using it on wet hair made all the difference.

This is truly a unique product. I rub a few sprays on my hand with Blended Cutie Soft Curls & Swirls to unscrunch, stretch or otherwise "finish" my dried curls. I use in the same way on 2nd day hair to help revie the texture and fluff it out and soften it. It's great stuff.

I would have liked this product so much more if it didn't smell TOO STRONG. Gives me a head ache. Great little spray though. Gives the curls bounce and extra curl. Didn't work too well with frizz for me. But that smell..It had to go. Well worth a try!

I won't repurchase this because it doesn't do anything for my hair. It doesn't do anything bad - just nothing.

This is an okay product for me. Not totally bad but not something I think I'll get again. I use it for smoothing down surface frizz and it does help to scrunch it in for frizziness after your hair is dry, but it depends on what products I've used. With some products it leaves my hair feeling producty. Love the scent - like apple jolly ranchers! I'd buy it alone for the scent!

i'm with Ringlet above - not sure what the fuss is about?! Definitely leaves my hair sticky and smells weird in my hair all day - like orange flavored baby asprin. There are better finishers out there with less stickiness and for less money!

Absolutely love this stuff! A few squirts on my hands, scrunched into wet hair before applying AnGell, makes all the difference in the world! Then, on completely dry hair, scrunch in a few more squirts for shine, extra hold, and getting rid of the crunch. I didn't believe that anything could go onto my dry hair without making it stiff, but this did. A little goes a long way... too much can get sticky. It smells heavenly, too. I adore this product!

This is a HG styler for me! I use it in damp hair, on dry hair and for 2nd day curls. Whichever way, it adds shine, hold and keeps my curls from frizzing... it even tames the trickiest spots. I love the smell and the versatility! I just have to make sure I never run out of this one.

this smells amazing and works even better. it's a super creamy spray i spray in my hands and apply to my hair as the last step of my styling. the frizz factor without & with this stuff is like day and night. helps enhance my waves too. i also use it after my onc mister rightmix spray on 2nd day hair. i wish it came in bigger bottles!!!!

I am a huge fan of DevaCurl products. However,This product did not work for me. I would not buy it again. It left my hair frizzy, waxy and sticky.It smelled really good though.

I no longer need another styling aid!!! It's a miracle! Thank you Devachan for this perfect product. It holds curl without being stiff or crunchy. I apply on soaking wet hair after generously conditioning with One Condition and have amazing results. This is my HG!!

Been using this about 3 weeks now and just ordered another bottle. I love it! I use it on my hair while it is wet after I give OC a little rinse. Then I use it again when my hair is dry on any curls that come out frizzy or otherwise undefined. I usually spray it on my hands then rub it in my hair. For 2nd day hair, I spray it onto my pineapple, smooth it in, put on shower cap and shower, and take it down. Great hair days with this! I have 3b/c hair.

I'm still experimenting with SiF, but I'm really starting to love this product...and am relying heavily on it. It always manages to fix my hair mistakes. If I don't put enough gel or leave-in in it or I don't scrunch enough or let it airdry too long or it's overconditioned, and it looks frizzy, puffy, too soft, undefined, too straight or whatever, I just spray this on and scrunch it in...and voila! My hair is shiny and curly and nice. :o)

Great product for soft hold and preserving curls for second day hair. It has a nice lime-candy scent, but not overpowering. Will definitely re-purchase!
