Curl Gelée for Shine & Definition

After going bald twice from chemo, my previously pin straight hair has grown back with coil-y curls. So, at 55, I am learning how to best deal with this new situation. I have been insane with all the products I have tried - from inexpensive (Sun Bum curl shampoo and conditioner actually aren't that bad!), but it was the final step that was proving problematic. Since I am throwing money at the problem, I thought I would try this when I could finally find it in stock somewhere. And we have a hands down winner folks. Even after sleeping on my hair, the curls remain relatively defined and non-frizzy and non-crunchy. Packaging is a bit much, but I will be loyal to this brand for as long as the curls remain. This product is WORTH EVERY DIME.

This curl gelée has a nice consistency and smells good. I found that it didn't give me the amount of hold I need, nor did it provide the frizz control I was looking for. Also, it flakes which left my hair looking dull. Not the best gel/gelée I've ever used by far.

I have been using this product for a long time and the last two containers don’t smell good like before. At first I thought maybe I just received one that was sitting around for a while and it lost its great fragrance however, this last container was just the same. Smells like petroleum. What did you all do to the formula?? For the price I would expect consistency. Think I may have to go back to my old curl cream.

After squeezing out the wet curls with a micro fiber towel, I add the Oribe primer and then this product. I dry with a diffuser, then wait about an hour (I have some seriously THICK hair) and then scrunch again to remove any crunch. Curls are freeze free and defined and soft for 2-3 days. Can re-activate with some water and scrunching if needed between washes.

Love this curl gelee! A very firm hold until you break the caste, which then reveals beautiful silky curls, no frizz. I found it was a little heavier of a hold than I wanted every day, but love it when I know I want my curls to look great for a long day or event. Wonderful scent!

Can a product stop working?? When I first started using this product, it made my hair shiny, manageable, and my curls were nicely defined. Then I bought it again and I'm having the opposite results - dry, frizzy, with no curl definition at all.

It is the worst product i use for my curly hair.i purchased this product because i was very pleased with others products from the same company.i have try a lots product for curly hair ,this one it was definitely the worst.i waste my money

This product is extremely high quality and the packaging is also really nice. I have been using this for a while now and don’t have any issue or complaints. I would highly recommend this product to anyone!

I used to love this product, but the formula changed months or maybe a year ago and it now leaves residue in my hair that flakes off in particles when ruffled.

It smells great and feels great on your hands but after air drying your hair is stiff. Not soft like some reviewers have said.

I like the volume from product. The hold was not sufficient for my highly textured very dense hair. It also left my hair dry.

It's perfect with defined curls the first day. The next day, after brushing and dampening, it looks good, with softer curls.

Obsessed! I don’t know how I can go back to anything else. I haven’t tried any products I don’t love!

I really like the products very much. I have never used gel before on my hair and now I am spoiled.

This is nice but it also leaves your hair stiffer to the touch. Creates good definition and texture

Give great shine and smells amazing. Will be using this product more often and will be in my has.

Light weight yet the hold great. Not very much needed. The amount you get is worth the price.

Best best best ! highly recomended ! love all orive products and this one is my favorite too

I like the curls I get with this. I haven’t figured out how to get rid of the Frizz though.

great product, but jar is too big and heavy, smaller will be better to store and use

This gives me the softest most defined curls of any other product. I love it!

Helps my frizzies....miracle . Learned about this product in the salon

Low hold and made hair feel dry and dirty not worth the money

Didn’t work for my hair type as my hair frizzed up.
