Michelle - Hair Type: 3b A good, lightweight gel. I like it mixed with a smoothing product.

Gretchen - Hair Type: 3a Really good curl formation, but didn't last a minute against humidity. Looked great standing in front of the mirror in the bathroom. Outside, boing!
MicheleSF - Hair Type: 3b I used this years ago and just re-discovered why I loved it! Works great for me when paired with Wen by Chaz Dean's Sweet Almond Mint Cleansing Cond. as a leave-in. This combo, along with PM Shampoo Three and a hot travel dryer (my curls love poo and hot air locks in the curls - whatever works!) gives me beautiful, well-defined curls that last a couple days.

irishcurl - Hair Type: 3b I really loved this gel. My husband's stylist talked him into buying a tube, and I stole it away from him! It is just what the name implies - a very clean feeling product. No crunch, no build-up, no flakes. The hold was great for me, but very thick or heavy hair may need something a bit stronger. This is priced at $9 where I live, which is more than I usually spend on gel, but it's worth it.

zsazsa - Hair Type: 3c I have used this gel for many years, and I have been unable to find any other that works as well as SCSG on my 3c hair.

mazey - Hair Type: 2b I need a strong holding product for curl formation, and this product didn't do it for me. Also, it left my hair very stringy looking.

Carmari73 - Hair Type: 3c I love this gel & have used it for a while now. It does have crunch to it, but I find I can lightly scrunch my hair once it's dry to soften it without losing the control. Works great alone or mix it with a smoothing cream for more softness.

battah - Hair Type: 3a great product! it's been revamped since gretchen and michelle's review, i think - the bottle is definitely different. very strong-hold gel, i usually mix it with a bit of water (or try super sculpt, that's a lighter hold). it has silicones in it so it defines curls really well. didn't weigh my hair down, but might be too much for a fine-haired curly.
great stuff! shiny, strong curls that hold up in humidity.
