Super hold, which is a step up from extra.

The practical difference shows on hair that resists being held down: dense roots, new growth partway through a set, locs that need a firm hand at the base. Keratin and tea tree oil are the named ingredients, and the formula is designed to set without flakes or buildup, which is the failure that makes people give up on braiding gels altogether.

Apply a small amount to clean sections as you part, working root by root rather than through the length. It suits braids, locs, twists and any style where the parting is part of the look and has to stay visible.

500 ml, so it is a working bottle rather than a handbag one. If you braid for other people, or you retwist your own locs on a schedule, that size makes more sense than a small one you replace every fortnight.

Application tips

A little along the parting, combed through the root, then braid straight away. Work with the comb rather than the fingers on the part lines, because it is the only way to get an edge that stays sharp. For locs and twists, apply at the base and roll the section between the palms. Keep the tub closed while you work through the head.

Results

Super hold shows up in the part lines, which stay crisp instead of blurring after a few days. Locs and twists sit tight at the base.

There is no flaking and no build-up left on the scalp, so a second application over an existing style does not go grey. The finish stays smooth and the hair keeps its shape well into the second week.
