The clear 500 ml is the middle of the range and probably the sensible default. Big enough to last, clear enough for any hair colour, and firm enough for the styles people actually buy a protein gel for.

Clear against black comes down to your hair. Black blends into dark hair and fills a parting. Clear leaves nothing behind at all, which is what you want on grey, highlighted, dyed or light hair, and on anyone who dislikes the idea of a tinted product near their scalp.

  • Strong hold that keeps a shape without going crunchy
  • Dries clear with no flaking and no white residue
  • Protein and conditioning agents to offset a firm set
  • Works for sleek styles, defined curls, braids and laid edges

Apply to damp hair section by section rather than all at once, and shape while it is still wet. The 16.91 oz tub suits 2c through 4a and most of the styles in between.

Application tips

Half a litre, so this is the tub for daily styling or a household sharing one jar. A walnut-sized amount covers a full slick, far less for edges.

Damp hair holds it best. Rake it through, smooth with a brush, then let it set. For defined curls, apply in sections and scrunch instead of combing. Shampoo it out, water alone will not shift it.

Results

Firm control without the crunch, so a sculpted style stays put and still bends under a hand. Curls keep their definition and slicked styles hold a clean line right through the day.

It goes on clear and dries clear, so nothing shows up white on a dark head. Shine reads natural rather than lacquered, and hair does not feel coated once dry.
