Mielle OrganicsRosemary & Mint Edge Control Gel - Strong Hold Hair & Edge Gel for Women & Men - Infused with Biotin, Coconut & Babassu Oil to Encourage Longer, Healthier Hair (2 Fl Oz)

Smell and feel great on my hair. It’s a little wet when I first apply but dries up pretty quickly. It’s not really a strong hold just a light hold.

This has made my hair softer, reducing split ends and it smells amazing. I’ve been using it once or twice a week and have noticed those pesky baby fine hairs are growing back finally.

I’ve been using the Mielle Organics Rosemary Mint Strengthening Edge Gel (2 oz) for a few weeks, and I love how it smooths my edges with a fresh rosemary-mint scent that’s never overpowering. It gives just the right amount of sleek, shiny hold without flaking or feeling stiff—great for everyday styling. Its greasiness is minimal.My edges look neater and my hair feels a bit stronger since using it regularly, probably thanks to the biotin and nourishing oils packed inside. That said, if you’re going for precise styles that need hours of hold, it might not meet those needs perfectly. Also, the jar is small, so it can run out faster than expected. Overall though, it’s a solid pick for natural, healthy-looking edges with a subtle shine and scent.

very small but has a good hold I like it

Love this stuff. The smell was odd to me at first but now I really like it, almost kinda minty. I have pretty fine hair but a lot of it, and have to use a decent scoop of this to get full coverage. About once a week seems to do some nice things for my hair, leaves it feeling and looking so much nicer.

The container is small. The scent is light and not unpleasant. The hold does not last long on curly edges. And because it is oily, you can’t layer upon it to add more hold without it looking greasy. I would not purchase this again for securing edges but it did work great while flat twisting to keep twists neat, clean and moisturized.

I love this Mielle it keeps my edges together and my hair soft. No flakes and no white residue. I wish it was a bigger size.

Revision 05/14/2023: I am still using daily the same 2oz container of Rosemary Mint Edge I purchased in December, 2022. A tube of conventional hair gel would normally last me two months at the most. I can see this lasting at least until July. Amazing product!-------------An update to my original review below. I started using this product in December being very impressed by the Rosemary Mint shampoo, oil and masque I had previously purchased. Although the gel is in a 2oz container (without tamper proof protection - which is disconcerting) I have to say that just a little goes a long way. I use this daily and it will probably be the beginning of March before I need to purchase again. So with my usage it probably lasts three months.Although this appears to be marketed for women and particularly those of African descent - Mielle's Rosemary Mint products are suitable for ALL hair types, regardless of race and gender. I am an aging Caucasian male with fine, thinning, grey hair and my wife is Asian with strong thick hair. We both love the Mielle Rosemary Mint range of hair products.My method of applying the Rosemary Mint Edge Gel: after shampooing and while hair is still damp, take a very small amount of the gel spread on fingertips and tap or stroke it over combed hair. Comb again to style. When hair is dry, comb out. Result: a natural soft style without the glue-like residue or brittleness of commercial gels.Use of the Mielle Rosemary Mint range leaves the scalp clean and refreshed. I highly recommend this product but wish that it would come with a tamper proof seal.--- Previous review below ---The Mielle Organics Rosemary range of products are generally wonderful. The shampoo, masque, rosemary hair oil are all reasonably priced per quantity and quality. I ordered the Rosemary "Edge Gel" which only comes in a 2oz size and costs $6.99. It arrived without tamper proof protection and appeared to be around 5/8ths full which caused me to wonder whether someone else had sampled it along the way. An 8oz tube of conventional hair gel costs around the same. The product works fine - but miserly in quantity and therefore too expensive. I would suggest that Mielle Organics at least double the quantity for that price. I am also puzzled why they market their product as "By women for women". That cuts out a good portion of the population. There is nothing overtly feminine about the herb Rosemary - which has been in popular use as a medicine, topical application, cleanser and culinary herb for centuries.
