A weightless, curl defining cream which helps nourish and protect curls.

Curly hair has more bonds of an amino acid called cysteine: the more bonds between hair, the curlier the hair is. Curly hair also tends to be quite dry and in need of moisture and hydration.

We have developed a unique technology that helps define and prolong curls' bounce and their natural shape by targeting the hair bonds, whilst providing hydration too. This weightless serum has been formulated to also help reduce, protect and strengthen hair against chemical damage and tame frizz.

Reviews Summary
Customers say this curl treatment enhances their natural waves and curls while keeping hair soft and manageable. Many reviews mention its lightweight texture that doesn't weigh hair down. Common feedback includes effective frizz control and curl definition, especially for wavy and fine hair types. While some find it provides enough moisture alone, others prefer combining it with additional styling products for better hold. Reviews are mixed on its effectiveness for very thick or tightly coiled hair, with some noting it's too light for their needs. Many appreciate its versatility for both wet and dry hair application.

    Good stuff!

    I like how it doesn’t get crunchy and I can refresh my waves on day 3 or 4 with some water and this curl gel. It’s pretty lightweight and I have yet to accidentally overshoot and put too much on or feel excessive residue. It was a windy day in the pic but my hair stayed surprisingly defined and frizz free.

    Not a 5 because I’ve used better products but they were also 5 times more expensive and the difference in effects are marginal so I’m definitely switching over to Inkey

    Just ok

    I felt this was fine, I have a lot of hair but the actual hair is fine so I need more weight to a product to keep frizz in control
