My Thoughts: Let me start by saying that this product smells amazing! Think tropical island in a jar! The consistency of this product is thin, but not watery. Because of the thin consistency not much of the product is needed. I normally apply the souffle to the lower third of my hair and ends. I've been using this product for about 2 months and so far I've had nothing, but amazing results each time I've used it! I purchased this product with the intent to be able to replace my foam wrap lotion. While wrap lotion does give my hair a great hold I find that sometimes it leaves a residue on my hair and I hate that feeling. I wanted something that would give my hair a nice crunchless hold and keep frizz at bad. I mainly use this product when setting my hair with flexi rods, perm rods, etc although I have a feeling that this product would work great for braid/twistouts as well. I've tested this product in rain, wind, humidity, extreme cold and each time my curls have survived! Needless to say this product is a keeper. I can't wait to see how well it works with bantu knots!

On Saturday I went to the salon to get a wash and set, however the weather was not too kind to me. It was quite humid so my hair frizzed. Normally in the past I make a failed attempt to wrap my hair and I say failed not because I can't wrap my hair, but because it does nothing for me as far as preserving my style and helping my hair to hold a curl. Wrapping has and never will work for my hair. Instead a light bulb went off and I decided to set my hair with my beloved caruso steam rollers. Doing this helped me to create the perfect pin curl with minimal effort. To hold my pin curls in place I opted to use double prong metal clips instead of the traditional bobby pins. I find these hold the pin curls in place without leaving horrible bumps in my hair. Lastly instead of wrapping a scarf around my head I threw on my bonnet which protected my hair without squishing my curls!
