The Verdict                                
I actually have a love/hate relationship with this Eco Styler. When my hair was a shorter TWA than it is now, this product was amazing. I'd only this once I've just finished washing my hair & this is usually the last thing I apply have sealing in moisture with my EVOO. When my hair was shorter, it definitely made my curls pop & added a shiny gloss to my hair. Yet, as my hair has begun growing I'm not that much of a fan as I used to be. Nowadays, I don't like the way it makes my hair feel when I apply it on top of my moisture. When my hair was shorter, I never really noticed the 'dull grey' look I get once applying it to my hair -- but then again I feel like maybe it's the way I'm applying the gel as I apply the quarter sized drops of gel to my palm before rubbing it in my hair in circular fashion. It is true to it's word though -- & definitely holds everything in place. I spent a few weeks not using on my actual hair & just on my edges & that worked out just fine. Although I would notice by the end of the day, my edges would feel a little sticky and there are still flakes, nothing major. While not using the product for a while I realized, EcoStyler definitely helps with keeping the volume in my hair. Without it, my hair shrinks at a faster rate than with it. Overall, I respect the product for what is it and what it does. Some days my hair looks great with it, some days not so much. I just personally have to work on techniques when it comes to using this product.

Definitely. It's a great product to have while trying to maintain your TWA. It will definitely help make your curls pop, as well as add shine. Definitely a great product to have under $5.
