Elasta QP QP Glaze Conditioning Shine Gel for Smooth, Brilliant & Styled Hair 170g/6 oz
A glaze is not a hold product first. Elasta QP's version is a conditioning shine gel, meant to finish a style rather than build one, and it works on natural, relaxed, permed and chemically treated hair alike.
What it does is add a reflective layer to the strand.
Dull hair picks up gloss, the cuticle lies flatter, and the whole style reads as smoother. It is non-greasy, so there is no heavy build-up sitting in the lengths after a few days.
Frizz control comes with it. The glaze puts a barrier between your hair and humidity, which is the practical reason people keep a tub of it near the door.
170g. Use it on finished styles for shine, or through the lengths of a wrap where you want the surface polished.
A little goes a long way with a glaze. Too much of it turns the shine into a film, and a film picks up dust by the afternoon.
Best for chemically treated hair that has gone dull and needs surface gloss rather than more product weight.

Application tips
A little goes a long way with a glaze, so start with a fingertip's worth and add more only if the hair drinks it.
Smooth it over damp hair from mid-length down, or use it on dry hair to sharpen a finished style. It doubles as an edge product on a small brush. Keep it off the scalp, and comb it through before the gel sets so you do not get patches.
Results
Hair picks up a wet-looking gloss that reads as healthy rather than greasy. The surface goes smooth, so flyaways lie down and a parting stays where you put it.
Frizz stays under control through the day, and chemically processed hair looks less porous than it did. Combing is easier afterwards, since the glaze conditions while it holds. The finish is soft to touch, with no crust to break.
