    Only gel I use

    I love this gel because it doesn't weigh down my curls as my hair is super fine and thin. It works great with the curl cream !

    Love this gel!

    My curls are permed curls, but I found Rizos after searching for new curly hair products, and I love it! All of the products I have purchased, including this gel, smell wonderful and make my hair shiny and voluminous without weighing down my curls. I do have to scrunch my hair after the gel dries to finish the look, but it's lightweight and works great. Excellent product!

    It’s the best combination between volume and definition, hold and softness!

    I have a mix of 2a-3a curls/waves, with most of my hair landing on 2c. My hair never refreshes well and most products weigh it down since it’s fine. Winter where I live is rainy, which means my hair is limp and doesn’t hold a curl. As you can probably see, finding one product that does it all for hair with a mind of its own is near impossible! But then I found Rizo Curls light hold gel. I bought it on a whim at Ulta over Christmas break. I’m so glad I did!! My curls are soft, but there’s enough grit to hold them in place. My looser curls curl up more. I can refresh with a little bit of water and more product, and they look great. They have more volume and are just overall healthier and happy! Which means I am happy!! The only tiny problem is the smell is a little strong, I am sensitive to smells and would absolutely love a fragrance free option. But that’s not enough to hinder me because I’m in love with my curls again!!! Thank you so much Rizo Curls!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
