Our Take

An extra-firm hold gel from the Braid + Twist line, designed for the specific demands of protective styling — braids, twists, and locs — where you need edges and sections to stay smooth and neat without flaking onto dark clothing. The Biotin and Honey combination is consistent across the Braid + Twist range: Biotin for strength, Honey for moisture retention. CGM-modified. This is a firm hold product and should be treated as such — it's not a curl definer, it's a braiding and laying gel. Use a small amount on sections before braiding, or along the hairline for clean edges.
