If you are newly natural and still have relaxed hair on the ends, this product may be too heavy. I would recommend trying our Design Essentials Almond & Avocado Curl Enhancing Mousse, which will define your curls and make the relaxed hair wavy due to it's lightweight formula. If you are totally natural or plan to wear "set" styles (sit under a dryer), our Honey Curl Forming Custard will definitely provide hold and show your natural curl pattern. Hope this helps. **Q: Is this curly girl friendly?** A: I am 4a/b/c, and this has been my favorite product so far! I used to be a product junkie. This gives the best definition without being sticky like KCCC, which I loved before I found this product. So yes, its curly girl friendly!!! **Q: Is this a gel? what color is it and what is the consistency of this product?** A: It is a gel. Very light but deifinitely a gel. **Q: Do you still apply a gel to the hair when using this?** A: I do not. It would be overkill for me to use this and another gel. My hair is somewhat fine, and doesn't need the extra boost of hold/definition. I will give it a try to see if it flakes (or any other weirdness) and update my answer with the results. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth the money *by B***A on 2 July 2026* Very good absolutely amazing in my daughter’s hair highly recommend ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Soft curls No residue *by J***H on 8 May 2026* 4a hair- Wash hair, blot excess water, apply Design essentias leave in conditioner to wet hair, then apply this product and let hair air dry. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product. *by D***I on 19 February 2026* Very good product.
