Comments:

I have alot of hair. Shoulder length, but thick. Not kinky curls, but not loose waves. I put a slightly larger than dime size of this (+detail creme) in my hand, mix together and comb thru damp hair. Style as normal. Great hold all day, great definition of curls. Never greasy or crunchy feeling, awesome softness and natural look.

Apply AG Recoil first, then a gel to extremely wet hair. Use a diffuser to dry hair for best results.

Comments:

I can't get enough of Recoil Curl Activator! I love it! My hair is naturally wavy, but I need to put product in it to define the waves and encourage more curl. This stuff does it! It smells good and even though my hair is thick, I don't need too much product. I apply it generously throughout my hair (avoiding the roots) and then diffuse dry. It leaves my curls/waves defined but not crunchy or wet looking. The price is a little steep, but I don't style my hair wavy all the time, so it lasts a while for me.

Comments:

I have curly hair that is about halfway down my back in length. It is crazy-thick. Usually once it gets to this length I am forced to cut it because the weight of it pulls all the curl out of the top of my hair (even with layers). Ive tried tons of different products to keep it curly/frizz free throughout. This product amazed me the first time I used it. No less than 5 people stopped me to tell me how gorgeous my hair was! My husband even told me it would be a crime to cut my hair off while it looks like this. I use this along with a strong gel - Im not sure if it gives enough hold (if any) while by itself. love it! I will definitely be stocking up!

Comments:

I put a dime-sized amount in my hands, rub my palms together, and then run through hair; a bit of scrunching, and I'm ready to go! It leaves my hair soft but with well-defined curls. I've tried a LOT of curl products, but this is the best!

This product is amazing. I have very curly hair. Spiral curls, frizzy and dry hair. This product is great. Helps defines curls and does not leave my hair crunchy feeling.
