Custom Control is a heavy gel-like styling treatment for hair. I have straight and heavy Asian hair. I tried the Self-Control wax and it was too sticky and ended up in globs in my hair, even though...

I used this to keep my fly aways to a minimum and flatten my fine thick hair. the smell is amazing, the packaging is awful (many times, i'd lose the cap in my bag..), but it works. chances are, there...
