Rated 5 out of 5 by from Strong Indeed I have tried several different strong hold gels, but this one takes the cake. It is extremely versatile for whatever your styling needs are: braids, slick back, heavy parts, etc. I especially like that you can build this layer by layer to get an even more structured result.
