SKIP THE CRUNCH
Definition without the crunch. This non-flaking formula with a curl-locking blend provides a non-sticky curl cast that enhances shape, fights frizz, and amplifies shine and bounce.
Light Defining Gel 101
Our gels form a curl cast that covers curls to ensure they dry defined with frizz control. Once curls are dry, it is easily scrunched away.
No, all DevaCurl gels are formulated to leave curls feeling soft and touchable without residue or crunchiness. Scrunch when dry to release the curl cast and create an even softer finish.
It’s all about the hold! Light Defining Gel gives soft hold and Ultra Defining Gel gives strong hold. Choose the one that’s right for you based on how much hold you’re looking for.
Bright Breeze Fragrance
A crisp, uplifting juicy scent that starts with notes of Pomegranate, Raspberry and Salty Melon, followed by Waterlily and Gardenia and finishes with Sandalwood, Cotton Candy and Musk.
We are committed to being kind to the environment and reducing our eco-footprint. This bottle is made from 50% recycled ocean bound plastics.
What it means to us: styling versatility so your curls can take on any shape and stand up to anything. Protect, revive or reset your waves, curls, or coils with confidence.
how to use
Rub between palms, scrunch into soaking wet curls. Do not rinse. Style as usual. Once fully dry, shake at the root and scrunch to soften the cast.

This gel is really nice. It gives great curl definition, hold, and shine with that famous delicious Devacurl fragrance. My curls held their shape for days and looked great!!!

Looked great, until I scrunched.
Review by Nick on 26 Jul 2022 review stating Looked great, until I scrunched.
This was my first time buying devacurl, and I bought the starter kit at Ulta. It looked like it was working miracles, but it got a bit crunchy once dry, and I so I scrunched. After scrunching, its like it let go completely, and my hair is frizzy and fluffy.

Bring Back The Original Formula!!!!
Review by Kay B. on 19 Jul 2022 review stating Bring Back The Original Formula!!!!
Deeply disappointed withe the new formula. Leaves my hair dry & frizzy, and I detest the new smell (too heavy on gardenia). I am still using the Original "NoPoo" shampoo and "One Condition" Conditioner, so the change in how my hair feels is definitely due to the change in the formula for this Light Defining Gel.
