Genuine African Formula SuperGro Hair Gel with Extra Hold is a 16 oz styling gel formulated for braiding, locking, edge control, twisting and retwisting that delivers firm hold, natural shine and nourishing moisture.

SuperGro combines strong styling performance with plant-forward conditioning ingredients to keep braids, locs, twists and edges neat and resilient. Designed for textured hair, the formula contains black castor oil plus biotin, shea butter, coconut oil, wild bee honey and a mix of vitamins and botanical extracts to support manageability while styling. It works on wet or dry hair, air-drying or under a hooded dryer, making it a convenient choice for salon work and at-home maintenance.

How does SuperGro keep braids and locs looking fresh?

The gel provides an extra-strong hold that locks hair in place without flaking, helping styles maintain crisp parting and smooth edges. Its conditioning ingredients reduce visible frizz and add controlled shine so styles appear polished for longer.

• Extra hold formula for tight, long-lasting braids and locs
• Black castor oil and shea butter add moisture to reduce breakage
• Non-flaking finish keeps styles neat and touch-up free
• Works on both wet and dry hair for versatile application

Will it work for edge control and instant shine?

Yes — SuperGro is formulated to smooth hairlines and tame baby hairs while producing a healthy-looking sheen. The gel’s texture offers instant grip for sleek edges without leaving a heavy residue when applied sparingly.

• Use a small amount for precise edge styling and definition
• Leaves a polished, low-gloss finish rather than stiff plastic shine
• Vitamins and botanical extracts contribute to softer, manageable hair
• Safe for daily touch-ups when used as directed

How do I use SuperGro for twists, retwisting and styling sessions?

Apply the gel to clean, detangled hair at the roots or along the shaft where hold is needed. Work small sections for twists or retwists; braid or style as desired, then allow to air dry or sit under a hooded dryer for a firmer set.

• Apply to wet or dry hair—damp hair helps distribute product evenly
• Use sparingly at the hairline to avoid buildup
• Air dry or use low heat to set styles more quickly
• Great for salon braiders and at-home maintenance routines

What ingredients help protect and nourish hair while styling?

SuperGro blends natural actives and vitamins to support hair health during styling sessions. Ingredients like biotin, coconut oil and West African shea butter provide conditioning benefits while honey and botanical extracts help maintain moisture balance.

• Biotin to support thicker-looking strands and manageability
• Black castor oil for added grip and scalp nourishment
• Shea butter and coconut oil for softening and shine
• Vitamins A, B, C and E plus multiple plant extracts for conditioning
