Davines This Is A Curl Gel Oil — Medium Hold Gel-to-Oil for Curly & Coily Hair, 8.45 fl oz, Hydrating Anti-Frizz Definition

Davines designed this hybrid formula for extra-curly textures that need both structure and softness. The product starts lightweight like a gel to shape and define strands, then transforms into an oil-like finish to lock in moisture and reduce frizz—resulting in springy, separated curls with natural shine. It works on damp or dry hair and is formulated to preserve curl pattern without stiffness.

How does this product shape and hold curls throughout the day?

The gel component creates a controlled, medium hold that keeps curls defined without feeling crunchy. As it sets, the formula softens so curls retain flexibility and movement while staying separated.

• Medium hold supports curl shape without rigid cast
• Gel texture initially defines individual strands
• Transforms to a softer finish for natural bounce
• Helps maintain hold through typical daily activities

Will this hydrate my hair and reduce frizz?

The oil aspect delivers hydration to each strand, smoothing the cuticle and minimizing flyaways. Regular use helps curls look softer and glossier while resisting humidity-driven frizz.

• Adds moisture to dry or porous curls
• Creates a smoother surface to limit frizz
• Leaves hair feeling soft, not greasy
• Enhances shine without weighing curls down

How should I apply the gel oil for best results?

Distribute a small amount through damp or towel-dried hair, focusing on mid-lengths and ends, then scrunch or style as usual. Use sparingly on fine hair and add more for thicker, coarser curls; apply lightly to dry hair to refresh second-day styles.

• Work from mid-length to ends to avoid buildup at roots
• Scrunch to encourage curl formation and separation
• Layer with leave-in conditioners if extra hydration is needed
• Use a small amount to refresh and tame frizz on dry hair

Does it work for different curl types and routines?

The formula is particularly formulated for extra-curly hair but is versatile enough for a range of curl patterns. It pairs well with wash-and-go routines, plopping, or air-dry techniques and complements other styling products when used as a defining, moisturizing finish.

• Recommended for curly and coily textures needing definition
• Compatible with heat-free drying and diffuse drying methods
• Blends with creams or leave-ins for layered styling systems
• Suitable for both daily styling and occasional touch-ups

Who is this for: Davines This Is A Curl Gel Oil is aimed at people with naturally curly or coily hair who want noticeable definition without a stiff cast, plus added hydration and frizz control. If you seek bouncy, separated curls that look soft and shiny rather than rigid or oily, this hybrid gel-to-oil formula is designed to enhance natural curl shape while keeping hair touchable.
