New fave
I usually buy the leave in conditioner from Ouai cos i like that it’s creamy and nourishing and doesn’t build up / weigh hair down… sometimes i go a few days between washed and i like something to give me a little texture… this is WAAAAYYY better cos it’s slightly thicker and gives you way better hold… but still not “sticky” and waxy or heavy like a pomade… this was recommended to me by someone in store and im glad i took their advice!

Great product!
Love this! I have low-porosity, fine hair. I blow dry every morning after a shower and I love to add this after my hair is dry and after I’ve used a thickening spray. I either put this and follow up with Chris McMillian’s hair oil or I combine both at the same time in my palms before going through the hair

This product is packaged in a horrible bottle. I was able to use maybe 1/3 of it and then the rest was stuck at the bottom, and since it is made of glass, you are unable to squeeze it out.

YES For Taming Thin Wavy Irish Curl Frizz
If you find your hair looks better on the second day after wash this is the product for you!! I've tried so many mens matte balm/ clay products looking for something that would tame my thin wave/ curl frizz without adding too much wwight or make it look too shiny an greasy. I use one pump with a couple sprays of light weight leave in conditioner spray (for hair length to my ribs) then add a lightweight oil spray on top and it is absolutely my hair holy grail recipe. THANK YOU CHRISSS

Not sure if I got a bad bottle but I felt it was very thick and the smell was awful. I was expecting lightweight and nice smell. I am giving it a 3 because my hair wasn’t frizzy.

Good product but smells bad
Took off one star for the smell. It does not smell good, almost like it went bad. It is very good for adding light hold and body for fine and thin hair. I wish it smelled better

It’s a nonnegotiable for me.
I have fine straight hair. I don’t use this exactly as directed I use it as a smoother and it’s amazing. It tact’s down all the little flyaway pieces. I then take my Dyson smoother to seal the deal.
