Some hairlines will not stay down. Fine hair at the temples, the soft new hair that shows once a set of braids comes out, the section that lifts an hour after you smoothed it. Super Hold is the stronger end of African Pride's edge range, made for exactly those.

It is non-greasy and does not drip, which is the practical difference between an edge gel you can use in a hurry and one that runs down your forehead. The finish is sleek and it holds, on natural and straight styles both, and it is particularly good on ponytails and up-dos where a smooth line is the entire look.

Use it daily along the hairline, the temples and the rows of a braided style, and run it over a ponytail to silken the surface.

2.2oz. Made for curly and coily textures, roughly 2c through 4c.

Application tips

A little at the temples, more at the front, and always with a brush behind it. Press it in with a fingertip, then use the soft side of an edge brush to draw the shape and the stiff side to lay short hairs flat. Ponytails take a thin coat pulled through the palm.

Results

Edges that normally refuse to stay down hold their shape through the day, including along braid rows and around the temples where hair is shortest. The gel is drip-free, so nothing runs onto your forehead, and it leaves no greasy shine. A slicked ponytail comes out glossy rather than rough.

Composition

The full INCI is printed on the pack. We publish it here as soon as the brand supplies it, and we will read it off the bottle for you if you ask.
