Taliah Waajid Love My Locs Honey Hold It Gel — 16oz locs & twists styling gel with honey for lightweight, non-flaking hold

Taliah Waajid Love My Locs Honey Hold It Gel is a 16oz styling gel that defines and secures locs, twists, and textured styles while moisturizing and reducing frizz.

Designed for textured hair and natural styles, this 16oz tub blends honey, hibiscus, and thyme into a non-flaking, lightweight gel that shapes new growth and refreshes established locs. The formula targets hold and manageability without stiff crunch, helping styles look sleek and controlled while supporting everyday maintenance. It’s suitable for setting, retwisting, and daily smoothing when you want shine, definition, and a softer finish than traditional heavy gels.

How does this gel help when starting or retwisting locs?

Honey Hold It Gel gives a reliable, flexible hold for forming and maintaining locs without leaving a cakey residue. Its slip lets you manipulate hair for parting and twisting, while the plant-based additions help keep hair feeling hydrated at the root.

• Provides firm but pliable hold during setting and retwisting
• Slip from honey and hibiscus eases styling and reduces breakage risk
• Leaves minimal visible buildup, so locs stay cleaner between washes
• 16oz size supports multiple sessions and long-term upkeep

Will this product weigh down fine textured locs or leave flakes?

The gel is formulated to avoid heavy, greasy residue—so it won’t typically weigh down finer strands when used sparingly. Its non-flaking finish means styles retain a smooth appearance after drying, and you can layer it under light oils for added shine without stiffness.

• Non-flaking, lightweight texture for less visible residue
• Use a small amount on fine locs to maintain movement and body
• Combines well with leave-ins or light creams for tailored moisture

What do honey, hibiscus, and thyme actually contribute to the formula?

These ingredients were chosen for their traditional hair and scalp benefits and to support the overall feel of the style. Honey adds humectant properties for moisture retention; hibiscus helps with softness and manageability; thyme is included for scalp-refreshing qualities and general hair resilience.

• Honey acts as a humectant to draw and retain moisture
• Hibiscus improves combability and softens textured strands
• Thyme helps maintain a refreshed scalp environment during styling

How should I use this gel for best results on twists and everyday styling?

Apply a modest amount to damp or dry hair, focusing on new growth and the areas you want defined. Work evenly through each twist or loc, then smooth and shape; allow to air dry or diffuse on low heat. For touch-ups, a tiny dab will refresh hold and add sheen without buildup.

• Apply to clean, slightly damp hair for optimal setting
• Use fingertip or comb to distribute through each twist or loc
• Air dry for natural finish or blow-dry gently to accelerate styling
• Store the 16oz tub in a cool, dry place to preserve texture

Who is this for: Taliah Waajid Love My Locs Honey Hold It Gel is aimed at people with locs, twists, and other textured hairstyles who want dependable hold without the stiff, flaky feel of heavy gels. It suits those looking for a styling product that supports moisture and manageability during daily grooming, retwisting, or when setting new growth. The 16oz size is convenient for regular use at home or in salons and works well across a range of thicknesses and curl patterns when applied in appropriate amounts.
