Similar to last year, I’m going to list my favourite product for each category from the last three years, and what’s made the top spot this year for 2020. Hopefully this way you can see what products truly stand the test of time, and continue to be the best on the market. And what new products are genuinely worth the hype, and money. I’ve also got my 2020 Product of the Year. Find out what that is later in the post. But honestly I’ve been ranting and raving about it so much, I’m sure you can already guess what it is!

Product of the Year 2020: TréLuxe Hi! Definition Gel
The consistency is somewhere between a gel, a custard, a jelly and a purée. TréLuxe Hi! Definition Gel is great at enhancing curls and creating clumps. Providing long-lasting curl definition, as well as shine. A little goes a long way, so don’t apply too much. Otherwise it will leave a white, flakey residue on the hair until the next wash day. I got a little carried away at first, because the slip feels so good when you apply it. This is the perfect balance of protein and moisture I’ve found in a gel. I recommend it all the time in Curl Clinics!
