Hello everyone! Today I will be doing a hair product review for you all. The hair product that I will be reviewing today is by the popular affordable brand, Garnier Fructis; this is their Pure Clean Hair Styling Gel. This hair gel:
A. Is made with 98% naturally-derived ingredients
B. Only contains 10 ingredients, including glycerin and acacia gum
C. Is made without parabens, dyes, or silicones
D. Promises 24 hour hold without flakes or residue
Amount of product: 6.8 fl oz 200 ml.
Cost: Very affordable at $2 – $5 a bottle, depending on where you buy it.
Smell: This hair gel has a strong lemon shower gel perfume scent to it.
You need very little of this hair gel, so it is very affordable and it will last you a long time.
The Garnier Fructis Pure Clean Hair Gel comes in 5 types: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Each one has different levels of hold. The one that I purchased is 3 with extra strong hold.
Application
The instructions on the bottle tell you to apply a small quarter-size amount of the hair gel to your hair on wet or dry hair. Then comb it through to the ends. I applied this hair gel after applying a hair detangler and a moisturizer. I dried my hair for 10 minutes, 5 minutes on each part on each side of my head. This makes it so that my curly hair will be dry by morning. When I finished drying my hair, I braided it into four braids with the hair gel applied to each braid. Then I went to bed and took it down when I woke up the following day.
How This Hair Gel Looked On My Hair
Review
When I took my hair down the following day, my hair was completely dry. My hair had body and mobility, and it looked lovely! My hair looked thick, so this hair gel is light enough that it did not weigh down my hair. My hair also looked very shiny and it felt soft, so this hair gel is moisturizing as well.
When it comes to frizz, I did not notice much frizz in my hair. There was some frizz on a few pieces of hair on the ends, but this might have been because I did not put enough of the gel on those ends, since the rest of my hair did not have frizz.
One of the things that I liked most about this hair gel is that after exercising for an hour and sweating heavily throughout my hair, my hairstyle stayed put and still looked nice, just like it did before I exercised, so this hair gel has great hold. This is the kind of hair product that you need if you live in a humid area, or if you exercise a few days a week or do high-impact workouts.
In terms of the brand’s promises, this hair gel did perform for me the way that the brand said that it would. There was no residue in my hair or flakes. My hairstyle was maintained for a few days as well until it was time for me to wash my hair again.
Final Thoughts
This hair gel is great! I love Garnier Fructis hair products, and I am glad that they are still maintaining high standards for their products. This particular hair gel by them is so affordable, and it gives great results. It really made my hair look healthier, smoother, and shinier, without weighing it down. It also maintained my hairstyle for a few days, so this hair product is definitely worth buying in my opinion.
This hair gel is a great option for those who want more low-cost hair products that are made with more natural healthier ingredients.
