A must have to get that flat ponytail, pigtails or the up do! It does get crunchy so it’s a must to wash after! Love it and will keep using it!Davis707

This product works great for my daughter that has sensitive skin. Toxic free ingredients are great! It holds her hair very well and doesn’t become sticky or flakey. Overall, great product for kids!Danielle M.

This worked great for us. My son doesn’t like anything too sticky and didn’t complain about this. Gives the hair more shape and helps tame the fly always.Emily H.

My tween daughter recently asked for a pixie cut hair style and this gel is the perfect companion to her new do! It holds and gives just the right amount of texture without looking greasy or stiff, and I love the fact that it's alcohol-free and hypoallergenic. It doesn't have a sticky, tacky feel but still manages to keep her hair in place all day. Really impressed with this product!Angela L.

This stuff is amazing! I have been trying to find something that slicks down my daughter’s coils WITHOUT FLAKING and this product does just that! It smells great and add a bit of shine and moisture to her ponytails. Love it!Tanisha R.

I love, love, love this gel!! I've been trying to find a gel that wouldn't leave any residue and pure enough to put in my 15 month old twins hair. I'm so glad the search is over!! It makes their hair so soft and their curls so defined! They are constantly getting compliments about their curls wherever we go! So easy to apply and not sticky and gooey after applying it. And the smell is amazing! Thank you so much! Hands down 5 ☆'sErik P.

Wished I had purchase sooner. Used it o. My little one’s hair and instantly saw the difference. His hair is much more manageable. Love the smell, not to mention how moisturized his hair is after each use. Will definitely be purchasing again and definitely will recommend. Wished it was on auto delivery though.Demesha J.

Let’s talk about hair. I’ve been following IGK’s instagram for a while now and am always amazed at the wonderful hair they show on their feed. When I heard about their new line of hair products, I was skeptical. My natural hair is between a curl and a wave, in the least flattering way possible. What does that mean? That when I’m not blow drying my hair straight and therefore securing endless split ends, I am putting a lot of product in it to either enhance my curls or make my hairstyle look more intentional than frizzy. My disappointing experience using product is the reason why my bathroom is filled with hair products I’ve only used three times. The first time to try it out, the second to see if a different method yielded better results, and the third to make sure I’m not a crazy person who does not know how to use product. This, of course, has made me a bitter person in the realm of hair products, though searching for the Holy Grail of hair products has been a quest in the back of my mind. I decided to bite the bullet and order Rich Kid Coconut Oil Gel ($27) to see if this was the product I’d been waiting for. My Experience Fragrance: 4/5 – Rich Kid smells like a perfume I just quite identify. While I would prefer my hair products to not smell like actual perfume, it is not an unpleasant or overpowering scent, so I won’t be turning away from it. Consistency: 5/5 – Rich Kid has the consistency of being between a paste and gel, more gel than paste. It does not, as one would epect, dry into a crunchy mess or weigh down hair, which is something not even the best gels for curly hair have done for me. Ease of Application: 5/5 – It’s very easy to apply. I sectioned my towel-dried hair in three parts (or tiers), lathered some products in my hands (about a quarter), and ensured each section got some product. I then twisted my hair in ringlets and roughed dried with my blowdrier. Disclaimer: I did blow out my bangs straight, because they are utterly unpredictable. See tutorial here. Results: 5/5 – My hair has never looked this good without blowdrying it straight to then use a wand to curl it. It was voluminous and gorgeous without frizz or being unpredictable. Best part: IT LASTED ALL DAMN DAY. I’m a convert.adriana.w

I used this product for a week. At the end of that week, my hair felt better than before I started using it. I really like this product. I felt like my hair was softer and just looked more put together. There is a light fragrance to it, that I really enjoyed. It wasn't overpowering at all. It just took a small amout (less than a quarter size but a little bit more than shown in the photo below) for all of my hair, but I wanted to make sure not to put in too much, so you may need more if you have longer or thicker hair than I do.tami.s

I use this every time I wash my hair. I have curly 3b hair. After combing out tangles, I use this gel. It's my favorite gel for light hold. My hair is fine and forms ringlets that need shape to hold together. This provides it for me. I love it and the light coconut smell. It's not sticky, has very little residue, washes out easily, and I need very little to hold my curls, despite having hair down to my lower back. I also use hair spray (Aussie Mega) for hold when wet. Strange sounding, but works for me.abby.r

1 star for my personal use because it is completely useless for styling thick hair, I put 5 stars because I love the gentle ingredients for sensitive skin, scent, composition. It would be great in thin hair or if you just want to smooth out texture.iHerb Customer

Tried this out for my 2-year-old son and I really like it! Has a great list of natural ingredients, many of them organic. Fragrance is very subtle and clean. It leaves a very flexible/touchable hold, not stiff or spikey. A bit pricey compared to other similar products but you are paying for quality ingredients, and I care about the ingredients my kids can be inadvertently ingesting through products like these so it's worth it for me. Purchased at Sprouts.katrina.m

I was hesitant at first to buy this product due to the price but needed something safe for my 12 month old so that we could keep his thick, straight, uncut hair out of his eyes. This product has done so perfectly. It is light enough that it doesn't make his hair greasy or crunchy while giving it a firm hold (until he naps and then it needs to be redone afterwards;).AP

So my daughter (she's 6) wanted me to buy this gel for her. So far we been using for a week and a half and I love the smell, easy to apply because its not sticky. The gel feels very soft. Does not leave flakes. The only problem is that it doesn't hold the hair and all the baby hairs stick out with any hairstyle I do on her. My best bet its good for infants. I will recommend it for any child under 18 months because it so gentle on the hair.melissa.a

I love this gel ! I had been on the lookout for a kid friendly gel because I did not want to damage my daughter's hair, and I've used this their shampoo before and saw that they also carried gel. Well, let me tell you it's great ! very light on the hair but still tames it.maria .o

Great product! Alcohol-free chamomile hair gel. Smells so good! Expect a compliment on how good you smell. Not extreme hold but I don't mind at all as I just want my son's hair to look nice and neat. I use after using the Ricitos de Oro baby shampoo. Does not leave hair stiff unless you use generously. Images shown were taken immediately after product was applied on damp hair and one image is from once hair dried completely.

I have 2 granddaughters with different hair types. One is very thick and the other is very fine. I've tried both the everyday shampoo and conditioner and the rosemary. I love them both. I love the bug spray too. Highly recommend their products. P.S. Customer service is awesome as well.Lisa D

I have a serious issue with my younger children catching lice. I have been fighting off lice for years, since my 19-year-old was seven or eight. Every time I get their hair clean of lies, its only a short time before they have it again and I have no idea where it keeps coming from. I bought this entire hair care line to try and prevent them from getting it going forward (after treating their hair again for the millionth time) but its still a problem. The scent is nice, it does wash their hair well, and I love that the bottles are a value size, but it doesnt repel the lice like it says it does and that was the main reason I bought this entire line or repel products.. I would give it 5 stars if it did what it is intended for.M.M.

This spray works. You have to use it every single day but it doesnt take much. It repels lice as it says and helps get the rats/tangles out. My youngest has super fine hair and my oldest has very thick hair and this works wonders on both hair types. And the smell isn't terrible which is a plus. It doesn't have an embarrassing odor to it at all. I highly recommend anyone with school age children to use this to help prevent lice. Once you get it, it's hard to get rid of. So it's best to use prevention methods like this and other methods as well so you don't get it in the first place.Sarah

I cant find any of this product anywhere I was surprised to find it here on eBay great hair product one of the best for unmanageable hair works great highly recommend and smells greatrumor3288

Actually this product just did not work for me!!! It actually left lots of residue but honestly I don’t mind it. I could see myself using it once my baby’s hair is a little longer. It’s hard to give any of these products bad ratings because of their formula and How honest the company is toward moms. I’m not mad at this product it just not working for me as for right now.Gabriela O.

I've used this on my curly hair and its doesn't make my hair feel crunchy or smell chemically. It does a good job of keeping the fly away hairs in place. Smells nice, not too strong.LiAna

I absolutely love this hair gel! I bought it for daughter and I really like that there’s no harsh chemicals in it and safe to use on her hair. It works so well controlling her wild baby hair but it doesn’t make her hair hard or greasy. Love the smell too!Courtney D.

I, unlike the rest, don’t really like the smell, it kind of gives me a headache. It holds my sons hair in place, but it’s a temporary hold. I don’t put it on until right before a picture or before we go out, because it won’t last all day. It’s a little sticky, but not too sticky. You definitely need to wash your hands after using.Ksoko

I was looking for a natural styling gel for my little boy, I was tired of acohol and chemicals. And I'm writting this review after I almost finished my first Honey Baby Styling Gel. This what I can tell: no flakes, great honey smell, hydrateded hair, medium holding (this is not strong or extra holding product, my son has straight hair and it has great hold for punky style, if it is a cold day he will come back from school holding his hair style but if it was a hot weather or PE activity with sweat the hair style it'll be gone) I definitly fell in love with this product and I'm looking that Target bring it back on stock.Cindy

Honey Baby Hold it Honey Styling Gel is my go to when doing protective styles or braiding my little ones hair! It's soft and, it hydrates and it holds! There is no residue. It helps to keep her hair healthy! I would buy this product again and again! It's a necessity in my household!tali.r

When my daughter was little a tried different hair products. Some would smell really good and some would not. Some would hold but not throughout the day especially when she was at school. I’m so glad we have great products like Cantu Kids! It actually holds my granddaughter’s hair throughout the day. And of course the plus side is it smells really good too.Lilleigh1976

The New Cantu Care for kids Style Gel holds, and moisturizers, and helps prevent breakage. The Cantu for kids is also flake – free and long – lasting there are no Sulfates, Phthalates, or Parabens or no mineral oil. The New Cantu Care For kids Styling Gel works amazingly on my 9 year old sons hair. It holds his hair really well and really keeps it moistured from the Shea butter and the Cocoa butter that it has in it. I really like this kids hair product it gets the job done well, when it comes to doing my son's hair everyday. I love it and I will purchase more containers of them really soon.CaliR

I am very happy to have discovered this CANTU KIDS EXTREME SHEA HOLD 2.25OZ GEL. I have used numerous products over the years trying to keep the girls hair maintained, and finally a gel made with shea that truly holds their hair in place all day long. A little bit goes a long way and therefore lasts a long time. Has a nice scent, and good consistency. Easy to apply, helps keep hair smooth and I would recommend.Chellester

Hubby Bought this gel the smallest size at his barber shop but it was $20 he then got the other size which is 30 something oz for $28. We really like this gel since its 0 alcohol. It doesn't damage the hair either. It works for my son too compared to the Gorilla Gel. Glad I found it here for a wayy better price.dsoto1994

I love this hair gel for so many reasons, it smells wonderful, it holds my hair in place the entire day, it doesn’t leave my hair with those white flakes after a while like other brand, it’s a little bit expensive but it worth the price because it lasts couple of months! 100% recommended!jessie.c

Great holding and styling ability without the shinny look. Alcohol free so does not damaage your hair, Also not flakey when dry and a little bit goes a long way. Its the best styling gel I have used. This product can be used alone for a more messy look or with a dried look for great styling ability,.gastleyj

American crew has failed us. They do not give us updates. There’s no reason why they should be out of this product for this long.Trav

I’m gonna mentally be not OK if you guys discontinue Superglue. I have used this gel almost exclusively for over a decade now. There is absolutely nothing that comes close. My distinctive hairstyle is entirely dependent on Superglue. Superglue also works in a pinch stick on turbo hose that keeps falling off its fitting. Please bring back my Gel!Maxwell

AMAZING HAIR GEL! It has amazing hold and smells delicious and a little goes a very very long way. Dries fast but you still have enough time to lay your hair in the position you want. However, i think if there was a big tub available to buy , that would be so so helpfulbenie.l

I have tried most hair products but this does do what it says its called miss selling you can not spike your hair with this item also it left my hair greasy. If your hair is flat all good otherwise if you want to style your hair how you want get gummy wax it will never let you downpart1958

I've been searching for years for a gel that keeps my middle aged head of hair looking full without that cheap shiny look. Hairspray just didn't have the holding power and would get sticky during the day no matter what premium brand I tried. My barber in Florida recommended this to me and I'm hooked for life. I sure hope they never stop making this. Remember only one thing… use sparingly a little goes a long way.SteveB

The Shea butter styling gel jelly smells really good. The texture and consistency is very jelly. But the jelly is very soft and when you apply is to your hair it also gives a nice shine to it. However, I would not use this as a gel because I don’t think it holds very well and wouldn’t really stiff the hair like I would want it. I would use it for more softer styles. But overall I like it. I have a few other styles I would like to try it on.Rthread

I'm a very big Shea Moisture fan for my own hair care, so I was very excited to use the children's version for my niece. She had to have her hair cut very short, so we were looking for some thing to help it look better. We applied Shea Moisture generously to her hair and it made her hair curlier, softer, and more manageable. It also gave her hair an excellent shine. I really like that it doesn't flake. The only draw back is the next day it does leave your hair slightly đry.Pioneer2005

I received this item complimentary from Influenster for an honest review. I have very mixed feelings about this product. What I like about it is that it smells great. It helped define my normally frizzy hair. What I didn’t really enjoy was the consistency of the product. The jelly like consistency made it a little challenging to get even distribution throughout my thick head of hair. Because of that I had some areas of my hair that were well defined and other areas that were a little frizzy and shrank considerably. I had to put on a lot of it so I can get a good look. I also didn’t like that my coils ended up being very “crunchy” and hard. My hair looked ok for the day of styling but the very next day I tried to restyle and refresh my hair and I was disappointed that it didn’t work out well. I usually spray water on my hair to refresh my coils and the product turned sticky. I also found little white clumps of it in my hair and on my brush so refreshing was a bad idea. I wanted to like it but it’s a no for me.alicia.f

My son has different texture curls in the front of his head compared to the back, so it’s not always easy to find products that work for him as a whole. On top of that, I’m always looking for products that enhance a natural look – no hard, crunchy, or wet looks wanted here! Not to mention, we try to avoid the worst of chemicals that are unhealthy for the hair and body. This line delivers on so many fronts! It provides moisture without heavy build up. We just spritz with water in the morning and rake through a little bit of this with our fingers. The makers know curly hair!ToddlerMommy

So I have 6 mixed children and all of their hair textures are different, it’s hard trying to find moisturizer for their hair types like don’t leave them crunchy or stiff. I use this in my 9 month olds curls right after the bath and when his hair dry’s he has the best bouncy, soft curls. It can also be used in dry hair which is great. I do wish the smell was comparable to other brands, but other than that I love it.Cheyene
