I like this stuff when you mix it with something else, like a bit of brilliant styling creme and a drop of smoothing fluid. By itself, can be kind of heaving and sticky and sometimes clumps if you're ...

My hairdresser used this under sections of my hair on top to give it lift and it worked great and so I had to buy it. I use it every day on dry hair – doesn’t seem to work as well on wet. I have oil...
