Round Trip is a liquid curl-defining serum from Paul Mitchell's Flexible Style collection, made for wavy and curly hair. Although this listing categorizes it as a styling cream, the product itself is a lightweight, water-based liquid rather than a cream; it's applied to clean, damp hair to define curl pattern, add flexible hold and cut down on drying time. Hydroxypropyltrimonium hydrolyzed corn starch forms the core styling agent, while panthenol and magnesium sulfate are included to help condition and strengthen hair as it dries.
The formula is vegan, paraben-free and made without gluten, and gives a touchable hold rather than a firm-hold gel finish — suited to people who want bounce and definition without stiffness. Apply a small amount to clean, damp hair and style as desired.
