I love this product and have used it every day for the last 10 years or so. I use a little for big hair, a lot for ringlets or on a humid or rainy day. My hair is medium-long, thick and layered. My hair is very dry and it works well to smooth frizz and shape my hair the way I want it. Mixes well with other leave in and finishing products. Fragrance is light and when it dries, I don't smell it at all. I also use it as a cream between shampoos on my dry hair in the winter to smooth and style it. On damp hair, it dries a little crunchy but my hair is easily softened up again by scrunching my curls gently. This softens the hair but doesn't ruin the hold. A staple in my beauty regimen.

I did not like this line of products. This "leave in" left my hair feeling like it had tons of heavy, waxy product in it and I used very little. Dried feeling crunchy and gross. Yuck!

Awesome product! May have found my HG...Worked about a nickel size into my hair, then followed up with a few sprays of the fresh curls spray gel. Result? Shiny, separated, clumpy, FRIZZ FREE curls! And not too heavy for my fine, 2b/3a hair! Definitely recommended!

This has more hold than Real Control and Smooth Down, but it's not as softening/ moisturizing. The strong, musky scent became bothersome by day 3. It's not bad, but Redken has better products.

Great product for dry hair. It leaves my curls in super smooth and well formed ringlets. When used with the Fresh Curls mousse, curls hold all day!

I recommend this product to clients that need more definition without a crunchy feeling. Be Careful not to overload product or you get a slimy.greasy feeling.

I really like this product, it defines and hydrates well. However, it tend to weight down the hair a bit by the end of the day. Also, there is a dramatic difference between use in air-dryed hair and diffuse-dried hair. When used with diffuser it does not provide good hold. However, for air dry I highly recomend it! (I have a lot of 3a/b curls)

This did nothing to define my curls or control frizz. I did not have good results with the Fresh Curls line. It left my hair extremely dry and frizzy, not in any way "fresh."

Thoroughly moisturises and smoothes my thick mass of hair. A great frizz-fighter! I luv using this with my curl creme and a gel/mousse. I also noticed since using this product, I've been able to grow my hair out for longer. It's really kept it healthy.

This stuff is great for my curls. They are well defined, springy and feel well hydrated. I find I can use it without gel for softer curls and with for a more defined look. My 3a/b curls really responded well to this product.

I liked the way my hair felt ultra soft and smelled amazing (very fresh.) Wished I had more definition. I could NOT diffuse with this product alone. Just not enough hold. May be okay paired with a gel.

Excellent, soft, natural-looking curls in cool temps! Didn't quell frizz, but reclumped curls nicely on dry hair.
