Sofn'free Protein Styling Gel Black Strong Hold & Shine for Defined & Healthy Styles 180 ml/6.09 oz
180 ml of the black protein gel, which is the size that lives in a bag rather than on a shelf. Useful if you lay your edges midway through the day, or if you want to try the black tint before committing to a 500 ml tub.
The formula is unchanged: strong flake-free hold, protein in the mix so a firm gel does not leave the hair feeling stripped, a healthy shine and enough definition for curls, waves and sleek styles alike. The tube helps here too, since it does not collect grit the way an open tub does when it travels. Apply to damp hair, shape immediately, and let it set before you touch it. Suits 2c through 4a.

Application tips
Small amounts, worked into damp hair a section at a time. Fingertips for the edges and the front, a brush for a fuller slick, a fine comb when the parting has to be sharp.
Leave it alone while it dries or the set breaks. Wraps, finger waves and sculpted styles suit it as much as everyday smoothing. Shampoo it out rather than layering over yesterday.
Results
Hold that carries through a long day, with the front smooth and the flyaways down. It dries without white residue and without the brittleness that makes a style crack when touched.
The protein gives fine or chemically treated hair a little more resilience while it is being pulled into shape. The finish has depth to it rather than a plastic gloss.
Composition
- Hydrolysed Wheat Protein
- Reinforces fine or worked-over hair while it is held in shape
