Taliah Waajid Black Earth Products Love My Locs Honey Hold It Gel — 16oz Hold & Moisture with Honey, Hibiscus & Thyme

Taliah Waajid Love My Locs Honey Hold It Gel is a 16oz styling gel formulated to define and hold locs and twists while delivering moisture and scalp-supporting botanical extracts.

This lightweight, non-flaking gel combines honey, hibiscus, and thyme to lock in definition, reduce frizz, and encourage manageable textured styles. Designed for daily styling, retwists, and setting new growth, the formula aims to support healthy-looking locs by providing hold without stiffness or heavy buildup. It’s made to blend styling performance with natural-feeling moisture so locs and twists stay sleek and touchable throughout the day.

How does this gel help shape and hold locs and twists?

The gel creates a secure yet flexible hold that keeps individual locs, twists, and edges defined without leaving a crunchy residue. Its viscosity grips hair gently, making it easier to palm-roll, twist, or lay down flyaways while still allowing hair movement.

• Provides long-lasting hold suitable for retwists and daily styling
• Dries tack-free to avoid visible flakes and stiffness
• Works with palm-rolling and two-strand twist techniques
• Compatible with natural hair textures and established locs

What are the key ingredients and what do they do?

The formula features honey, hibiscus, and thyme—each chosen for beneficial properties that support hair and scalp. These botanicals combine to help retain moisture, promote smoother cuticle appearance, and contribute antioxidants and nurturing compounds to the scalp environment.

• Honey: natural humectant that helps attract and hold moisture to hair
• Hibiscus: known for softening strands and improving manageability
• Thyme: provides soothing and balancing effects for the scalp
• Light gel base: formulated to avoid heavy buildup on locs

How should I use this gel for best results?

Apply a small amount to damp or dry sections, working it evenly through new growth or along the length of twists and locs. Use fingertips or a styling comb to distribute product, then palm-roll, twist, or smooth with a brush as needed; allow to set naturally or under a hooded dryer for a firmer finish.

• Start with a pea-sized amount and increase sparingly for thicker hair
• Use on damp hair to enhance definition and reduce frizz
• Seal with a light oil if extra shine or moisture retention is desired
• Reapply to touch-ups sparingly to avoid product accumulation

Will this gel cause buildup or flaking on my locs?

The formulation is created to minimize visible flakes and heavy residue when used as directed, making it suitable for regular styling. Gentle cleansing routines and occasional clarifying will help prevent any product accumulation over time.

• Non-crunchy finish reduces visible flaking
• Lightweight base engineered to rinse out with regular shampooing
• Periodic clarifying removes any long-term buildup
• Best used modestly on established locs to maintain scalp health
