Umberto Giannini Curl Jelly Starter Kit – Travel Curl Scrunching Jelly Trio, Silicone-Free Frizz Control

Umberto Giannini Curl Jelly Starter Kit is a travel-ready trio—frizz-control shampoo, moisturizing conditioner and the brand’s defining, silicone-free Curl Scrunching Jelly—for bouncy, more defined waves and curls.

This compact kit brings together a de-frizz shampoo and conditioner with the UK’s best-selling Curl Scrunching Jelly in travel sizes, so you can test the routine or keep curl care in your bag. Formulated for wavy, curly and coily hair, the trio focuses on detangling, lightweight moisture and medium-hold definition without silicones, parabens or animal-derived ingredients. Use the three-step system to wash, condition and scrunch in a styling jelly that helps control frizz and boost shape while remaining Curly Girl–friendly.

How does the shampoo and conditioner work to reduce frizz?

The duo uses conditioning agents to coat strands lightly, smoothing cuticles and locking in moisture so hair resists humidity-induced frizz. They’re designed to detangle and add bounce without weighing hair down, making them suitable for a range of curl types.

• Frizz-control ingredients that hydrate and smooth hair fibres
• Weightless conditioning to maintain natural movement
• Detangling action for easier comb-through and reduced breakage

What does the Curl Scrunching Jelly do for curl definition?

The silicone-free Curl Scrunching Jelly gives medium hold to help curls set with more shape and less flop, while controlling flyaways and reducing puffiness. It’s formulated to enhance the natural pattern of waves and curls without a crunchy finish.

• Medium-hold gel that defines without stiffness
• Silicone-free formula that keeps curls soft and touchable
• Helps manage daily styling challenges like frizz and lack of bounce

How should I apply each product for best results?

Begin with the frizz-control shampoo to cleanse, then follow with the conditioner, spreading it through lengths to detangle and nourish. After rinsing, apply the Curl Scrunching Jelly on damp hair by scrunching upwards, then air-dry or diffuse for enhanced shape.

• Shampoo: massage into wet hair and rinse thoroughly
• Conditioner: apply mid-lengths to ends, finger-detangle, then rinse
• Curl Jelly: distribute through damp hair and scrunch to activate curl pattern
