My boyfriend loves this.

I love LUSH. ***WHY I LOVE THEIR COMPANY: They have great products that are unique and fun, and the company is great as well. The co-creators are quirky and cool, the products are minimally packaged to reduce waste, they are against animal testing (they use human volunteers instead), they use ethically sourced ingredients, they use only vegetarian ingredients, they genuinely are a “green” comp...read moreany (in terms of their energy use, recycling/composting/re-using, using wind and low-impact hydro-electric power), and they get involved in ethical campaigns. It's a company that I LIKE to buy things from and am always excited to find new things to buy there. ***WHY I LOVE THIS PRODUCT:This product was included in a LUSH "Dirty" gift set for about twenty bucks, and included hair gel, shaving cream, shower gel, fragrance vial (all in the "Dirty" scent), and Toothy Tabs. My boyfriend had been looking at it and I bought it for him to try (the box does say your girlfriend will try and steal it, and I partially bought it cuz I was excited to try it out too!) :) Like the other products in the "Dirty" line, the Dirty hair cream has a nice spearmint/tarragon scent that's manly without trying too hard. The texture of the cream is really nice and smooth and easy to apply. It looks great on his buzz cut--he makes it just a little messy looking. He usually wears gel, but this cream gives his hair a slightly more natural look. It still looks styled, but in a less obvious way than the gel. His hairstyle stays put all day too, and there's no flaking or anything. It's a little spendy, but it's a really great product. It also has rosemary, cocoa butter and acrylates to soften and condition your hair, and these ingredients really do their job.

Silicon-free hair gel

I've been gradually easing out of using products contain silicon, starting with shampoo. It's not easy. In fact, finding silicon-free styling products is downright <i>hard</i>. Enter Lush. I purchased The Big Tease and loved it so much I went back for King of the Mods. Each offers different levels of hold, and both offer superior shine, frizz-taming, texture, and gorgeous scent.

Not For Me

I don't like the way any of these make my hair feel. Too much gel.

King of the Mods

LUSH's King of the Mods is a great styling product for anyone looking for a silicone-free product with light hold. Unlike many styling products, King of the Mods doesn't dry your hair out, which makes it a great choice for those who use straightening irons. My main complaint is that this product has a strong (and pleasant) citrusy fragrance, which is nice, but which tends to mask the even nicer fr...read moreagrance of my LUSH conditioner. I'd also note that this should be used sparingly -- a little goes a long way and too much product can lead to oily-looking hair.
