Hold Quality

Customers have mixed opinions on the hold quality of PATTERN Beauty by Tracee Ellis Ross Strong Hold Gel. While some are pleased with its ability to hold moisture and maintain curls, others find it does not provide the bold hold as advertised and can leave hair goofy. Some users have reported needing to use water daily to prevent build up.

Texture

Some customers have positive experiences with the texture and hold of the gel, praising its ability to tame curly hair and provide a smooth finish. However, others report negative experiences including itching, gooey mess, and excessive flaking that required multiple washes to remove.
