Using the gel on coloured or damaged hair? Combine it with the Anti-Frizz Hydrating Conditioner. It gives your hair extra moisture before styling, making the result feel smoother.

Your hair stays styled all day and looks shiny. This is largely thanks to PVP, a polymer that forms a thin film around your hair and provides firm hold. At the same time, aloe vera and glycerine attract and retain moisture, so your hair doesn’t feel stiff or dry after drying. The gel suits all hair types and works on both straight and curly hair. A great choice when you want styling without sacrificing care. Check out the full range of InSight if you want to discover more products from this brand.

Yes, the gel works well on curly hair. It gives curls clear definition and keeps them in place without clumping. Apply the gel to wet hair and squeeze your curls into shape. For best results, combine it with a leave-in cream or conditioner underneath so your hair stays moisturised. If you specifically want a hair gel for curls with strong hold, this is a good mid-range option.

Yes, the gel is certified Vegan and nickel-tested. It contains no animal ingredients and has been tested for nickel, which is great if you have sensitive skin. The formula does contain fragrance, so if you’re sensitive to scents, keep that in mind.

The gel contains alcohol, which may cause dryness for some with daily use. The formula also contains glycerine and aloe vera, which lock in moisture and largely offset this effect. Do you have dry or chemically treated hair? Always use a good conditioner before styling. The Anti-Frizz Hydrating Mask is a great addition if your hair needs extra hydration.

Many cheap drugstore gels give a very hard finish, known as the “helmet effect”. The InSight Strong Styling Gel strikes a balance: firm hold but your hair stays flexible and looks cared for. That makes it more versatile than gels focused solely on maximum fixation.

Want even stronger hold for highly structured looks? The InSight Hold Cement Gel is a better choice. Looking for a gel specialised in curls with extra claims against frizz in humid weather? Brands like Curlsmith or Bouclème are more interesting but also more expensive. If you want inSight strong styling gel that’s good for curls and doesn’t cost too much, the InSight Styling Strong Gel - 250ml is a logical choice in the professional mid-range.
