ORS Olive Oil Edge Control

I saw this when I was browsing the very limited Afro-textured hair section in my local boots. It cost me £2.99 and is a little cheaper than the hair shop. It says on the box

  • Contains no alcohol
  • Gives superior hold
  • No flaking
  • Great for relaxed and natural hair!
The directions say all you have to do is smooth on with your fingertips to get the desired hold. My hair is 100% natural. I would say its fine in texture and not all gels can tame it when it needs to be. This gel is amazing. It really does hold down my edges. However I would say you need more than your fingertips. As it can appear very shiny. I find using my pocket size bristle brush slicks the edges down perfectly with this product. It does remind me of QP Elasta glaze but is definitely more tacky which I believe is why it hold the edges down so well.

In the picture above my edges look almost straight and yet my hair is 100% natural. This is good stuff.

If you use any other product for your edges please let me know? I love buying products and trying out new things.
