![]() ![]() I've been using Harry's Taming Cream for the past several weeks, and I'm thrilled with how the lightweight formula keeps frizz at bay and gives me a light hold. I have short curly hair that mostly stays in place on its own, but it needs some initial guidance when I first get out of the shower. Compared to similar products that I've used, I don't have to walk around smelling like coconuts, pineapples, and mangoes all day. It also has a mild scent, which I appreciate. You won't be left with a bunch of excess cream or white stuff in your hair - and it doesn't flake once dry. Before curling my hair in the morning, I add a small amount of the Taming Cream and it holds the style all day long.Įven though it comes out as a white cream, it's light and can be easily worked into your hair. I've been using it for a couple of weeks ahead of the launch and I love it. I have thick curls so it was the best choice for me. With the softest hold of the new products, the Taming Cream is designed for curly, coarse, or thick hair. Rewind, for me, is easy to work with, has a good scent, and gives my hair a strong, long-lasting hold - the attributes I find with the Sculpting Gel.Īt $8, it's only $2-$3 more than drugstore brands, but I like the results much more and would be happy to spend the slight premium. While not the same type of hair-styling product, the Sculpting Gel gives me the same experience I'd get from my all-time favorite hair product, Rewind 06 from Redken, but at half the price (or more). During my testing, the gel managed my straight hair well and into the night - even with an afternoon disco nap. The gel has a very pleasant scent, but don't worry: the smell won't stay on the hair. With other gels, I have this tendency to over-squeeze the bottle, but Harry's designed the cap in a way that this won't happen. There's enough time for me to work with it, yet sets in pretty soon after I leave it alone. I find that I only need a small dollop to style my hair, even less if I'm using a comb. After trying this for a week, I'm not kidding when I say I may have found my favorite hair gel. The downside to most gels I've used is that my straight hair requires more of it than I like, and I also hate the "crunchy" look and feel it leaves. ![]() ![]() I'm more of a gel-kinda-guy and I like the way the liquidy product works into my hair and the semi-permanent hold it gives. While I like the Texturizing Putty, I love the Sculpting Gel. Plus, the jar size meets TSA regulations, so it's the perfect hair product for travel. I love that it's easy to apply and maintain. The Texturizing Putty costs less, comes with a lot more in the jar, and works just as well, if not better. I used to use a pomade from Baxter of California and Sumotech from Bumble & Bumble, and the reason why I stopped is because of how expensive they are. Compared to L'Oréal's Studio Line Overworked Hair Putty, Harry's feels lighter. The scent isn't unpleasant, but it isn't my favorite of the new Harry's products still, it's subtle when it's on your hands and you won't smell it throughout the day. It leaves a matte finish, and your hair won't ever look like it's been gelled to death. Don't worry if it clumps up - just massage it into the hair and shape (no combing here). However, the putty works best on towel-dried hair. The pliable putty is very thick and you really need to dig into it, but a little is all you need. For example, you may want a more professional look in the morning as you head into the office, but a more messy style for happy hour after work - this putty lets you do that. Once applied, it provides a good hold, but unlike a paste or pomade, you can reshape your hairstyle a bit later. If you're looking for some flexibility, the Texturizing Putty from Harry's is a good choice. ![]()
