Pros & Cons
Pros
Redken hardwear 16 is a must have. This sculpting gel is wonderful. It's a little on the pricey side-- but it's worth every penny!
It holds my style in humid weather very nicely. Holds without being stiff or greasy! Holds the style the whole day. Very strong hold for my curls.
Cons
Hair product has a pleasant scent but the holding power is weak. I have to wear my hair in a low bun for work and within an hour my hair was falling out and all over the place.
This gel flakes off in white chunks when it dries. Not as good as rough paste 12. Aussie freeze works better and has a stronger hold with no flakes.
Highlights
Quality
Besides i know the quality of redken products
My hair is cut a little funky short so this product works great without frizzing up and it holds really well
There isn’t a sticky feeling in your hair from the product
Price
The price is the same as if you bought it from a beauty shop
Packaging/appearance
After some searching it seemed like this was the “replacement” with new packaging and updated graphic
I had no reason to think there was anything different except for the packaging
Competitiveness
Very fresh sent and lighter than hardwear 16
I love redken products and decided to try this
I end up returning the new one and buying my redkin gel

For a first time user i can offer that this is probably not for anything except a firm hold
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I’ve had far too many that say “super strong” and when i squirt them out of the bottle they just spread all over the place
