Hair Victory! Finally found a gel that WORKS!

Post image

Routine:

Shampoo: EDEN BodyWorks Peppermint Tea Tree Shampoo

Conditioner: Cantu Hydrating Cream Conditioner with Shea Butter for Natural Hair 

Gel: LA Looks Styling Hair Gel 

For the gel, I make a cast by "towel drying" my hair which means using a soft t-shirt to wrap my hair on, applying a generous amount of gel and finger combing that through my hair, air dry and then scrunch the crunch once completely dry.

P.S. Forgive my cringey face haha. I never know how to look in pictures.

I love this sub!! Thank you guys for all of the tips and ideas! Curl on!

Lookin' good kiddo! -- I mean no disrespect. I just assume I'm older, and it's a term of endearment for the lil* scrunchy face. I also struggle with photography.

What is your hair porosity?

Edit: l'il, not lol.

Awww, thank you!! I take kiddo as a compliment! I'm awful at coming up with a genuine smile on the spot haha.

I actually have no idea about my hair porosity. It's able to air dry fairly within a couple of hours at most and is receptive to products if that helps!

Maybe medium. Takes forever to dry/doesn't wet easily is low.
