Great for convenience
I’ve been using the JVN Air Dry Cream for a while and it’s great for taking the frizz out of my hair without weighing it down. The scent is subtle and clean and doesn’t linger too much. Overall, it’s an easy, reliable product if you want your hair to air dry nicely with minimal effort.

AWFUL
I was so hopeful for this product, but this is honestly the worst curl product I've used, left my hair crispy and dry no matter how i used it or tried to style my hair. Also space NK makes you leave really long reviews probably to put you off leaving one....

Nice cream
The JVN Air Dry leave in cream is a really nice post shower addition to the routine. It applies nicely in damp hair without feeling too heavy or crunchy. It also doesn’t leave a sticky residue over hair dries. I found this nice to use when air drying my hair but didn’t notice why dramatic differences in terms of frizz or smoothness. Worth try a mini bite committing to the full size.

An OK styling cream
I like that the Air Dry Cream has a luxurious scent and a light texture and is free from sulphates. As a styling cream, it falls short. It gives moisture but no hold and it doesn't really combat frizz. I've used it when air drying my curls and also blow-drying straight and the effects are the same.

Nice product
The JVN Air Dry Cream is a solid addition to my routine. It helps tame frizz, enhances my natural texture, and leaves my hair soft without feeling crunchy. While I wish it had a bit more hold, it’s lightweight, smells great, and perfect for effortless styling. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

did not work for my long, fine hair
I used half a tube of this before I gave up on it, so it has had a fair crack of the whip. I have fine, dry and long (waist-length hair) that does not like humidity. A problem currently, since we have had continuous rain for almost 2 months - I hoped this would help. Any difference it made was so marginal I never managed to decide if it was my imagination or not, but what I did find was that more than a little left my hair slightly sticky. My fine hair tends to tangle in humidity, so this actually made things worse rather than better. I also thought the product consistency was a little too thin for the metal tube it came in, which made it hard to control the amount dispensed. Overall a fail for me, but perhaps it does better for coarser hair types?
