Is the bacon scent strong?

The brand describes it as sweet and smoky applewood bacon. Expect a noticeable food scent that stays in the hair rather than fading fast.

Does it work on curly or coily hair?

The wheat protein is marketed for strengthening coils and curls. It is a styling gel, so it adds hold and body rather than deep conditioning.

Is it safe for color-treated hair?

Yes, the brand says it can be used on chemically treated and tinted hair. It contains no alcohol, which reduces the drying that alcohol-heavy gels can cause.

How much hold does it give?

The brand does not state a hold level. It is described as thickening and body-building, so treat it as a medium styling gel and test on a small section first.

Can I get it in a different scent?

Yes. Black Canyon offers around 100 scent options in this gel line, so the same formula comes in many fragrances.

Will it dry out my hair?

It is alcohol-free, so it avoids the drying effect of alcohol-based gels. Wheat protein can still feel firm, so rinse or wash out at the end of the day.
