ORS Olive Oil Braidzone No Fly-Away Edge & Braiding Gel 227g
This one has two jobs and does both. It lays edges down and it grips the hair while you braid, which means one tub on the styling table instead of two.
The hold is firm. Fly-aways stay flat, frizz stays down, and braids stay sleek through the day rather than going fuzzy by the afternoon. Lavender oil, acai oil and biotin are in the formula, and they cover the conditioning side so the hair and scalp are not left dry underneath a firm-hold gel.
- Firm hold that keeps edges and braids sleek
- Controls fly-aways and frizz through the day
- Lavender oil, acai oil and biotin in the formula
- 227 g / 8 oz, suitable for all hair types
Using it for braiding rather than only for edges is the part worth trying. A little through the section before you start gives the hair enough grip that the braid stays even from root to tip.
It works across all hair types. If you braid at home regularly, or wear styles where the hairline is on show, it is a straightforward buy.

Application tips
Scoop a small amount on a fingertip and press it flat along the hairline before you pick up a brush. An edge brush in short strokes will lay the baby hairs; a boar bristle brush works if you want them softer.
Tie a scarf over the front for a few minutes to set. For braiding, run a thin film over each section as you plait.
Results
Hold is firm, so edges stay laid through a working day and through weather that usually undoes them. Fly-aways along the parting stop lifting.
The finish is glossy rather than wet-looking, and it does not go chalky or crack when you touch it. Braids gripped with it sit tighter at the root, which keeps the install looking neat for longer.
