Ingredients after the first 5 to 8 ingredients are in negligible amounts and can be ignored if you are not trying to avoid any ingredient in particular – Read the Ingredients List, Not the Product Claims

Manetain Hard Hold Gel is very high in film forming polymers and amino acids. The polymers make it good for use in humid conditions too. The amino acids will help with curl retention and body. And if you read the product claims, it says exactly that! Love it when claims and ingredient functions match.

Performance:

+ Gave an amazing cast
+ Provided long lasting hold, even onto Day 2 and 3
+ A very tiny quantity is sufficient to give desired results
– There is a learning curve in finding out the right quantity for your hair type
– Made my hair a bit dry
+/- This point is both a pro and con – hair feels a bit stiff like once dry; but this feature gives great body to my wavy curly hair and keeps it so for 2-3 days. It is because of this point that Manetain Hard Hold Gel is currently my favorite gel – because I’ve resumed going to office, this holds my hair well for a long time.
