Jason Styling Gel, Flaxseed Hi Shine, 6 Oz

This lays the edges without the risk of hair loss. Those of us who grew up using prostyle gel know that it’s hard to find a natural healthy gel that holds as well without flaking. Look no further you have found your hair’s new bestie. I’ve been using this gel for 10 years and it even helped to grow thin areas back. A little goes a long way. Use this on coarse hair, straight hair, curly hair literally all hair textures. Has a very mild to no scent. I even put it on my braids when they are a frizzy and mousse /wrap lotion or braid spray won’t work . Excellent quality product. The only way to get a better gel is to make it yourself.

I really like this styling Gel and have been using it for a very long time. Thank you for making such a good hair product!!!

I love that this gel features nontoxic ingredients. It does work well for slick hairstyles or putting in wet hair. Unfortunately it can make hair feel a bit tacky and frizzy. It is easy to use, and it is not too heavy on hair.. just does not form my curls as well as other products I have tried. It smells very light and fresh and it has lasted me longer than i expected.

It seems like all of my allergies are getting worse as I get older. I've been using the same gels from Kenra (17-firm) and Paul Mitchell (Red - strong hold and Purple- extra body) forever. But, I've been getting patches of blistery skin around my eyes which don't tend to appear when I don't use gel. So, I figured I'd try something with fewer chemicals. The culprit was suggested to be Triethanolamine - found in all 3 gels mentioned above. This is not in Jason's product. I'm not a chemist, but the most active ingredient in Jason seems to be Methacryloyl Ethyl Betaine/Acrylates Copolymer, which is listed as a "hair fixing" agent of low/no toxicity & no allergies (you can google it and it comes up in many cosmetic databases), unlike Triethanolamine which is only a pH adjusting agent but may cause allergic reactions. I have not had any dermatitis issues in the 1-month since I have started using this gel. The gel performs very well, especially considering it's extremely affordable price and natural formula. My hair type is medium-to-thin thickness and chemically straightened (barely - we leave it on 5 minutes just to make styling easier). The gel is sticky like Sebastian Gel Forte, which is the only negative - but whatever. I just wash my hands anyway. It controls frizz well. It holds stronger than Paul Mitchell firm (red bottle) and Kenra-17. This may be too strong for some people, but it depends on your hair type and preference. I can sometimes be bothered by scents quite badly (my hair stylist once used some pomade on me that required a shower, washing my sofa cushion, and washing out my nose to get rid of). That situation was unusual - but it gives you an idea how much I hate certain scents. Jason is nothing like that. It's pretty neutral. It sort of has a fruity & lightly floral smell...almost grape-like? It's so hard to explain but it is mild to me. It's totally worth a try, especially given the reasonable price.

This product works so well. I was using Avedas flax seed gel confixor and it just wouldn’t hold. This is maximum strong hold and has 0 flaking It’s great esp for the value! Edit: this product contains phenoxyethanol which is terrible for you. I will not be buying again.

This product does everything you want it to do, and for a fraction of the cost of everything else that doesn't work nearly as well. First of all, it doesn't damage my hair but actually protects it. It has no weird fragrances or colors. The hold is natural and leaves my defined ringlets looking bouncy and shiny. When people compliment my hair, which is all the time since it grew out SO CURLY after chemo, I tell them about this particular product. I use the praying hands technique for distributing it through my hair and I air dry it/dry it in front of a space heater (which is a drying method I highly recommend, especially for squirmy kids who can do other things while they sit near a space heater and let their thick, curly hair dry in the winter time.

This is a gel I have used for over a decade now. I am quite impressed by it as it has more natural ingredients, and it does not harm the hair much. It also does not have a white residue, and it goes on clear. It has a medium hold, and the scent is fresh. It washes off very well, and the shine is medium as well.

Have been using for years.Keeps hair in place and not oily.
