This is really the only gel I use. I never load mystery chemicals into my healthy hair. I avoided using most styling aids until well into my mid 20s. After a breakup I decided to cut my long wavy hair which resulted in its springing up into frizzy spiral curls. After using conventional styling aids I began my search for leave-ins with safe, natural ingredients that defined my curls but didn't leave a film of chemical garbage on my hair.
My search didn't last long, but my hair had grown out a bit before I discovered Aubrey Organics' B5 Design gel. This is the only product of any kind with which I am consistently happy. It even stands out among other Audrey Organics' other products that I've tried as the absolute best. I never have to rotate between this and other similar products.
This is not a gel for maximum hold or funky styles this is more of a conditioning gel. What I like about B5 Design Gel is that it uses herbal gums to control frizz in my hair without weighing it down. I don't have very porous hair and products have a habit of just sitting on top of my hair, but I find this product is well absorbed into my hair by the end of the day. Considering that this is a product made with aloe, vitamins, and essential oils, that is fine by me.
This is a great natural heat protector and it is also a good conditioner aside from doing a good job of defining gentler, non-coarse curls. Also, one eight ounce bottle goes a long way I bought a second bottle to keep around when I finished the one I had which still hasn't happened. I even enjoy the smell of this gel, which is light and herbal.
I cannot recommend this product highly enough for those who want conditioning and frizz taming with light-to-moderate hold.

I hate using hairsprays and anything unnatural in my hair. Aubrey Organics is a company that I can trust to not put anything harmful in their products.
If I need some extra hold or smoothing, I mix a small amount of this with some jojoba or coconut oil in the palm of my hand, and smooth it onto my damp hair. It does a fantastic job of holding without looking or feeling stiff. Don't use too much or it will flake.

I'm a male with short hair and i style my hair by spiking it up. I used a generous amount of gel and at first it looks fine until it dries out. Maybe in an hour or so it looks like you have dandruff all over your hair because the gel has dried and turned flaky. I tried using less gel, but I still have the same results. Maybe it works for others, but it's unusable for me.
Honest reviews on Aubrey Organics Hair Design Gel B5 All-Natural -- 8 oz
This product, as described, does not contain any of the BS chemicals that make their way into most regular cosmetics. I do experience some mild flaking with it, but it's not much to worry about (many of the regular gels do far worse in this regard). The lack of harmful ingredients is worth the trade-off. It leaves the hair in a natural looking state, with a faithful hold, but not one that's glued on, which is what I'm going for...natural manageability. Anyway, I like it :)

I love this gel! I put a nickle sized dollop in my damp hair, and when my hair dries it is free of all fly-aways, yet my hair is smooth to the touch and feels like I have nothing in it. If I want more hold I can add more, but basically I use it to have nice waves free from frizzy hair.
