Is it a wax? Is it a gel? No, it’s a multifunctional finishing cream so flexible, you’ll wonder how you ever styled your hair without it. The creamy-wax formula of Percy & Reed Hold It Right There! Define & Hold Finishing Cream has been developed to define and hold short hair and chic crops, fix hairline flyaways, and even tackle pesky split ends on long locks. Clever horse chestnut extract and sunflower wax work hard to smooth and define, while giving hair the hold it needs. And you won’t find a crunchy strand in sight, either, because this hair styling cream offers flexibility, too, leaving hair feeling suitably soft and strokable. It adds shine, is non-greasy and smoothes hair in all the right places. If that wasn’t enough to convince you it’s the best styling cream for men and women – it’s also silicone free. Need we say any more?.

I use this product every time I wash my hair. I have used it for a few years. You need very little, so a tube goes a long way.

One of my favourite hair products….great for defining curls. When my hair looks like it needs something doing with it before I can go out…a bit of this product transforms it!

Gives good definition.

Yes, I recommend this

Another great Percy and Reed product. Only need a small amount to define and smooth hair otherwise it can make it look almost greasy, I've found it's best to apply a very small amount and then re-apply to avoid overdoing it

Been using it for years!

Yes, I recommend this

I’ve been using this for the last few years, ever since it was introduced to me via a M&S Beauty Bag! It gives definition to my curls without weighing them down, doesn’t dry my hair out and smells pretty good too!

A brilliant product. It doesn't build up in your hair, brushes out easily and at the same time will keep your hair in place all day.

Very good product

Yes, I recommend this

I first received this product as part of a large set and have since bought more. Yes, it is costly so it’s worth trying to buy when on offer. It works well on my short, thick, slightly curly hair. A little goes a long way and adds texture and shine.

Great product, a little overpriced.

Yes, I recommend this

Great for finishing a curly blow dry & smoothing out hair, it’s lightweight & Ive been using for years, shame they’ve shrunk the size & increased the price so much though.
