Use this with a little water!
This works best on my 3c/4a edges (yes, my edges are two different textures like the rest of my hair) when I wet a small edge brush, shake the excess water off so the brush is damp, brush my edges with it, then take the DE edge tamer and apply using my pointer finger all over my edges. I use about a pea size to start with and just apply more as needed. I smooth the edges and edge tamer with my fingers and then use the brush again to lay them however I'd like. If I want my edges to stay all day, I tie a silk scarf over them for about 5-10 minutes. I've noticed that with this method, even if I don't tie them down, they'll still look presentable and if they do start to frizz throughout the day, I just take my finger and maybe a little water and lay them back down since this stuff is pretty sticky and pliable even if it's been hours since I applied it. I've noticed that if I try to apply this to dry unstraightened edges, a white cast appears on my dark hair, they don't lay down as flat, and sometimes, this stuff will pull my edge hairs out because it's too sticky to apply straight to dry edges for me. So wetting first helps to keep my edges on my head and also slick them down more smoothly lol

Tamed my edges nicely
First I want to say, this definitely works best on CLEAN hair. I believe that goes for any edge control though. If your hair is already greasy, it won’t work well. Now this edge control doesn’t have a really strong smell like others and it has a very nice hold. No flaking or white residue. Tie down hair for at least 5-10 minutes and you should be good. If tied down longer you’ll be good all day unless you sweat hard. Would definitely purchase again.

Good
Firstly I love the scent of this product. But start off only using a little bit. Too much will make your hair hard and flaky. It doesn't seem to dry out my hair like most edge control products. It is a little container but again, you only need to use a small amount. It hold my hair all day until wrap it at night. If you use it daily it will cake your hair up unfortunately but it is not hard to wash out. Overall it is a good product.

Love it! Clear product, nice scent, keeps hair soft.
I love this stuff! I’ve been using it for years! This is the only product that I use on my hair but I also don’t use it everywhere, just on one side in part of my edges. I like that it TAMES my flyaways and doesn’t lock them down. It doesn’t make them stiff or cake up with white residue like a lot of similar products. This is a clear product and it doesn’t take much. A little goes a long way. One container lasts me months. It smells really good too! I also like the price of it here versus at hair stores or from the DE Reps. Love it!

Quality Edge Control
One of the better edge controls that I’ve tried. I have ethnic curly hair and straighten it with a straightener most days. Still haven’t found something that will last all day in keeping my edges down, but this product was in the right direction. Smell was nice. I also used this on my daughter who has more wavy Hispanic hair and it works great for her!

Best I've Ever Had
I only use this edge control. I have 4b edges and they are not the thickest so it's important to me that whatever I use is not going to strip my hair off. This control gel holds for me all day (8am-4/5pm), except in summertime when I tend to need to reapply in the afternoon (but it's Georiga), and I don't mind reapplying because there's ZERO build up on my edges. I don't ever get flakes and the hair just stays down. It has that sleek look at first, but that disappears by mid-day, and the hair still stays down without looking overly styled (which is not the look I go for anyway). I wish it was cheaper, and when I find something cheaper will switch, until then, it's worth the price for my edges.

The Perfect Solution for Natural Hair!!!
I love this stuff! It works great on my natual hair. It lays it right down. I usually wear a sew in but i choose not to relax my edges. This stuff gives my edges the sleek and shine of a fresh relaxer and it doesnt sweat or oil out! I reccomend putting it in the refrigerator after use for best repeat results!! Its also best used with a clean scalp . Mutiple applications on top of each other ruins its effectiveness and leaves a white residue that will show up. So wash your edges before each application.

... I ordered two different edge tamers and this one isn't as taming as the other onefrom Kera Care. BUT it smells a lot better, I love it. So therefore, it's okay.
