Rihanna by no means has a hair misplaced, so I had excessive expectations for The Controlling Sort Edge Management. The model guarantees that the method will lay, lock, and easy edges with no flaking, however sadly, it fell flat for me. I’ll give props to the lovable peach-colored, accessible packaging—I really like popping open the lid as an alternative of twisting off the entire thing—however as for the precise gel, I discovered the feel to be a bit too dry and never tremendous versatile.
When smoothed over my edges, the gel didn’t give my hair the modern and glossy maintain I favor. My child hairs have been nonetheless wispy, and after just a few minutes, my hair regarded like I didn’t even have that a lot product in it, regardless of having used a couple of dime-size dollop. I do love that Fenty created an edge brush together with the gel, however the small measurement of the comb left a bit to be desired compared to my favourite device, the Child Tress Edge Styler, which has an even bigger brush, making it simpler and sooner to type my edges.
All this to say, I’m excited to attempt the opposite merchandise within the line and hopefully discover my Fenty Hair match.
