I do like it but will order the 3 next time. The 4 has a tendency to leave my hair hard at times. But I will definitely continue to use Curl Mix products

Description
CurlMix Flaxseed Gel | Heavy Hold + Growth-Powered Castor Oil 🌰✨🌀
The Moisture-Rich Curl Gel That Defines, Holds, and Helps You Grow
Destiny had a child, and it was our gel. ✨
If there’s only one product you buy from CurlMix—make it this gel. This is the one that put us on Shark Tank, changed wash days across the country, and became a cult favorite among CurlMixers everywhere.
We get it—styling your whole head with gel sounds risky.
“What if it flakes?”
“What if it’s too crunchy?”
“Will my curls actually hold?”
💁🏽♀️ The answer is YES.
With the right technique (and the right base), this gel gives you soft, touchable, juicy curls with hold that lasts for days—not hours.
💥 Let’s Bust the Gel Myths:
-
“Gel means flakes.” ❌ Not when you apply to soaking wet hair and use a moisturizer underneath.
-
“Creams and foams are enough.” ❌ Without gel, your wash-and-go won’t last. Period.
-
“All gels are the same.” ❌ Nope. This gel is handcrafted with real flaxseed and fortified with castor oil for heavy hold + growth benefits.
🌿 Star Ingredient: Castor Oil
Castor oil is the thickest natural oil used in haircare—perfect for locking in moisture, reducing breakage, and supporting length retention. Its density gives this gel a stronger, more structured hold, ideal for tighter textures and growth-focused routines.
💖 Why You’ll Love It:
-
Heavy Hold for Long-Lasting Definition:
Designed for curlies who want more structure and longer-lasting curl clumps. -
Moisture-Rich Finish:
Softens and defines without crunch or dryness—just juicy, bouncy curls. -
Flake-Free Styling:
When applied properly, this gel delivers consistent, clean results every time. -
Supports Growth Goals:
Castor oil helps nourish your scalp and strengthen strands over time. -
Education Included:
Comes with access to our FREE 21-Day CurlMix Masterclass to help you master your wash-and-go 💬🎓
💎 Key Features & Benefits:
-
Heavy Hold Formula – Perfect for shrinkage-prone or resistant curls

Castor Oil Infused – Locks in hydration and supports stronger strands
-
Humidity + Frizz Control – Great for hot, sticky, or unpredictable climates

This is the first time in many many years I finally found a gel that holds without crunch, smells great and has no heavy buildup.

Wash & Go Flaxseed Gel – Heavy Hold for Bold, Defined, Frizz-Free Curls
I'm always getting comments on my hair because I get to style it the way I want with your product and it doesn't take a ton of effort. My hair feels great to the touch and doesn't have a heavy scent. Please don't change a thing! I'm using Curl Mix 4 and more recently began using the shampoo and conditioner for even better overall results.

Wash & Go Flaxseed Gel – Heavy Hold for Bold, Defined, Frizz-Free Curls
It has taken me years to find the perfect gel and I finally have! Easy to apply -- it's not sticky or anything. And it doesn't weigh my hair down or make it look crunchy. And I love that it is thin/light enough that I can get every last drop out of the tube. Great product overall!

Wash & Go Flaxseed Gel – Heavy Hold for Bold, Defined, Frizz-Free Curls
I tried from a recommendation from the owner because you were out of the flaxseed gel blackberry that I usually buy. It was just OK. My hair was not as curly and did not maintain a lot of moisture. It was dry and the product really didn’t curl my hair like I thought.

I loved the curl from the flaxseed gel, however, my hair had white flakes throughout. That ruined the look. I am disappointed in the product because of that.
Yvonne P. 3/5 Verified
This new bottle and/or formula makes my hair crunchy now and it does not hold up as well day after day. I will try the less firm hold formula to see if I like it better. I was bummed that this one didn't work as well as the other
Nicole M. 3/5 Verified
Curl Mix changed my hair and my life. No chemicals. Only all nature products. Brings out my nature curl pattern. I get lots of compliments on my hair!
S M. 5/5 Verified
I think that this product will be most useful to me when my hair is trimmed and shaped. At the moment with fly away strands it is not the best choice. I will use the regular and heavy hold depending on what is going on with my hair at the time.
Margaret C. 4/5 Verified
The HH is my favorite. It works well on my hair and gives me great hold for a minimum of 6 days. I could probably go longer but I’m committed to washing my hair weekly. Really good stuff. 😊 I plan to keep it stocked in my hair products.
Marlene C D. 5/5 Verified
I’ll not use anything else
Patrice P. 5/5 Verified
I thought there would be more crunch to the cast. Curls were soft the next day, but held their shape with only a small amount of shrinkage.
Anissa C. 4/5 Verified
Best gel I've found to make my hair hold an not be crunchy to the touch.
Tina C. 5/5 Verified
I’ve decided to try light hold on my low porosity, low density (in the front), CCC alopecia in the crown… I’ve always been using the heavy hold & my hair just never moves… I’m waiting for the light hold I ordered to see how that will work.

MEET THE FOUNDER
Hi, I'm Kim
I created CurlMix to serve curly women who wanted clean, natural, safe, and effective hair products.
I wanted to create a system that was so easy and effective, that every woman could do a Wash and Go.
Even for women with 4C hair like me and ESPECIALLY GRAY HAIR.
My Hair Story
1997
My First Relaxer
When I was 6 years old, my grandmother relaxed my hair, against my mother's request. My mother was so upset, and that led to 13 years of relaxers to acheive "straight hair" so I could feel "beauitful" and fit in at school.
2010
MY BIG CHOP
Sophomore year in college, I was inspired to go natural by my mother and several girls wearing their afros on campus. That semester, I cut all of my hair off in my dorm room.
2017
CurlMix Launch
I wanted to help other women embrace and celebrate their natural beauty, the same way my mother did for me. We launched a 4 step system to help you master your curls.
FAQ
Will my products be all natural and organic?
Yes, we will only provide natural and/or organic ingredients. We keep our labels simple, so you can understand exactly what is going on your hair & body. All ingredient information is on each individual product page.
Do I need to refrigerate them?
No, the water-based products include a preservative. This includes all of our products except any pure oil formulas. Putting them in the refrigerator does help them last longer but is not required. Unopened, they have a 2 year shelf life and after it is opened, 1 year.
What if I'm allergic to a few things?
Ingredients may have been derived from corn, soy, wheat, and/or nut products. They may have also been produced in a facility that makes those products.
We recommend conducting an "Area/Patch Test" as described below.
Area/Patch Test: This test allows you to test a small area of your skin for 24 hours before applying the treatment to a larger area. We recommend rubbing the CurlMix mixture on the skin near your elbow, covering it with a bandage for 24 hours and if there is no allergic response (redness, itchiness,swelling) then apply the treatment as directed in the instructions. If you have an allergic reaction, we do not recommend the use of CurlMix and suggest that you seek a medical professional’s consultation.
What preservative do you use?
Optiphen PLUS
We use a safe and natural preservative called Optiphen PLUS. It is a paraben and formaldehyde-free preservative as well. It's ideal for preserving natural products that are used on the hair and skin. It offers both safe & effective protection against bacteria, yeast and mold growth, making products last longer and safer to use.
How long will my CurlMix products last?
Approximately 2 years if unopened. Once opened, store in a cool dry place. It can last one year once opened.
Always review your products for changes in color, texture, or smell before you use them. If you are worried, reach out to customer service with any questions or concerns, anytime! Our email is info@curlmix.com.
Are CurlMix products safe to use on color treated hair?
Yes, they are.
What is the refund policy?
We want to be conscious of our planet, our people, and your pocketbook.
