Took A Long Time To Find Perfection - Let Me Save You Time!

"Years...that is how long it's taken me to find the perfect styler. Actually decades. Curlsmith is my absolute favorite for a balance of moisture, shine, and control. My wash and go now lasts for several days and the In-Shower Style Fixer is a game changer for me! The scent is sweet and mild and the high quality ingredients (in all of their products that I use) have made a difference for my hair. FINALLY!"

— Jubal V. (5/5)

Holy Grail

"Genuinely my holy grail it will hold my hair in a cast for a week, running track in florida heat, walking to class and anything else my curls will stay the whole time. I’m absolutely obsessed! I use the Miss Jessie’s Pillow soft curls leave in, the pink bounce curl brush and diffuse it keeps its cast, definition, volume and shine."

— 😁 (5/5)

Amazing on my daughters type

"Amazing on my daughters type 3B hair. Holds the curls for days without needing to refresh. By far the best gel i have used on her hair for definition and hold."

— Michelle W. (5/5)

I love it

"I love this gel. This is my third bottle; it doesn't leave my hair feeling crunchy or stiff, but it keeps frizz under control and helps the definition last longer. For reference: I have wavy hair—types 2b, 2c, and sometimes 3a. My hair is medium-thickness, and I have an oily scalp."

— Vick (5/5)

I love this stuff!

"I use this in the shower and comb it through, then wrap my head in a microfiber towel while I finish showering. later, all I have to do is comb it out, scrunch, air dry and I have fantastic looking wavy curls. a little goes a long way - I have lower than shoulder length thick hair and a dime to nickel sized dab is perfect for me."

— Jill (5/5)

Great hold without frizz

"I love this gel! It gives my curls a really strong, stiff hold and keeps the frizz away. My curls stay defined and actually last without getting fluffy throughout the day. Definitely one of my favorites when I want a good cast and long lasting definition!"

— Casey F. (5/5)

It works i guess but it felt horrible

"I was excited to try this but the hold was so strong it made my hair sticky AND matted together. Trying to wash it out took forever and made it worse before it got better."

— Cam (2/5)

Gel that truly HOLDS!

"I can honestly say this is my favorite long lasting hold gel EVER! A little is all you need. I use it in combination with the volume foam. I can go days without so much as a refresh."

— Lori (5/5)

A regular buy

"2c/3a curl. short/medium. prove to frizz and dry. found this to be one of the best curl gels on the market. pricy but dependable for sure."

— shane g. (5/5)

Strong gel

"This is honestly a really good gel. I have 3C curls with medium porosity and medium-density hair, and it works really well for me. I used a leave-in conditioner first and then styled with this gel, and the results were amazing. The hold lasted well, and depending on your preference, you may not even need to refresh your curls. I only refreshed mine once or twice, and even then it didn't need much. The cast is quite strong, but it's easy to scrunch it out with a little oil. Overall, I really love this gel, it's definitely become my favourite!"

— Josefina J. (5/5)

Q&A

When I use this gel I get small patches that are still sticky even when my hair is dry and I’ve scrunched all the crunch. I presume this is due to product distribution when styling, is there anything I can do to get rid of these sticky patches without completely rewashing?
Yes, this product will likely be due to product distribution when applying. If you make sure you apply this gel to your hair when it is soaking wet, and apply in sections, you should avoid sticky patches. To get rid of any stickiness, you can spritz or wet your hair with water and redo the sections.
Why does it make my hair feel dry after I apply it? Do I need to add a curl cream before, i have fine 3b/3c curly hair with a medium to high density.
Hi Maya, Thanks for reaching out to us. The dryness you're experiencing after using the In-Shower Style Fixer could be due to a few reasons. Please reach out to us at hello@curlsmith.com and our team will be able to help you. Thanks, Curlsmith
Does the product (In-shower style fixer) contain Methylisothiazolinone? Some online sites state it does but your official website doesn't have it ....has it been reformulated? - It was awesome on my hair but caused me rashes and itching on my skin.

Our team takes product safety and customer satisfaction seriously. Our official website accurately reflects the current formulation of our products, and at present, our In-shower Style Fixer does not contain Methylisothiazolinone.

Thanks, Curlsmith
If I wanted to use a leave in conditioner and a heat protectant spray. Would you do that all before or after the shower styler?
These would be applied prior to your styling gel! I hope this helps
Hi can use this in summer still because of the glycerin in the first line of the ingredients if not is there a glycerin free hard hold gel thank you 😊
Yes, you can still use the In-Shower Style Fixer which contains glycerin. It's an extreme strong hold styling gel that provides long-lasting definition, humidity protection and shine for all curls.
