Lightweight glycerin gel defines curls and cuts frizz; hold fades quickly.

What the community says

A lightweight glycerin styling gel for fine, voluminous curls and waves needing definition without heavy buildup. It works best scrunched into soaking-wet hair, but loose curls, persistent frizz, or anyone wanting a firm cast will likely find it underpowered.
