This product helps me control my fine, straight hair like nothing else. No visible residue. Adds just the right amount of body and manageability. Doesn't take much. I haven't found any creams, lotions, gels, sprays, or clays (or anything else) that does what this product does. My only problem now is it's no longer available on Great Offer Stock nor at my stylist and I don't know where to find it any more.
