African Pride Black Castor Miracle Extra Hold Braid Loc & Twist Gel is a professional-style styling gel that keeps braids, locs, twists and edges neat, smooth and long-lasting, with strong hold that resists flaking.
Perfect for fresh braids, locs and retwists Good for freshly braided styles or retwisting, when you want firm hold without stiffness or flakes.
Solving the hold-without-flaking trade-off Braided and twisted styles often lose their crispness within days, and many gels leave flaking or stiffness behind. This gel is built to hold firmly through daily wear without that residue, so styles stay neat for longer between retwists.
Key Features & Benefits
- Extra Hold: Provides strong hold to keep your style in place longer.
- Tames Frizz & Flyaways: Helps smooth stray hairs for a clean finish.
- Boosts Shine: Leaves hair with a healthy, glossy look.
- Nourishing Oils: Infused with black castor oil and coconut oil to condition strands and scalp.
- No Flakes: Formulated to resist flaking even with firm hold.
- Safe for Multiple Styles: Suitable for braids, locs, twists, edge styling, and retwisting.

How to Use and Care for Braid, Loc & Twist Gel
Prep: Start with damp or dry hair — the gel works on both.
Apply: Apply a small amount to the roots, hairline, or the area to be styled.
Targeted Timing: Braid, twist, or retwist immediately after application, then air dry or sit under a hooded dryer to set.
Storage: Store in a cool place with the lid tightly closed to prevent the gel from drying out.
Who this is for
Anyone doing braids, locs, twists, or edge styling who wants strong hold without flaking or stiffness.
Who this is NOT for
Not a leave-in moisturiser — it's a styling hold product, so very dry hair may still need a separate moisturiser or oil applied first.
FAQ
Q1. Does black castor oil in this gel help condition hair? Black castor and coconut oil are included mainly for the conditioning feel and shine they add, alongside the ingredients that provide the actual hold.
Q2. Can I use this Loc and Twist gel for braids too? Yes — despite the name, it's formulated to work across braids, locs and twists alike.
Q3. What does castor oil do for the ends of braids? Castor oil is often used to help seal moisture at the ends of braids and twists, which can help reduce dryness and frizz at the tips.
Q4. Will this gel flake as it dries? No — it's formulated specifically to resist flaking, even with a strong hold.
