Styling with Gel

Nov 19, 2003

Wow is all I can really say right now.  This doesn't even look like my hair.  I'm taking pics so you all can see this craziness.  Last night I combed out the last of my flat twist-out, conditioned the hair and scalp with cream and oil, braided it back, and went to sleep.  I woke up to a sticky mess and didn't know what to do with the hair. There's no time to wash it, and I don't have the energy for that.  So what I decided to do was get out my Eco Styler strong holding clear gel, which I've refused to use due to its ingredients I didn't seem to pay attention to when buying, and I decided to slick glops of it through my hair.   Whoa, I had never used so much gel in my life.  I also rubbed in my Leave-In first, and sprayed my water/Glycerin/Rosewater mix as I went.   But amazingly, it did a great job of slicking my hair with shine and making visible, shiny waves!!! I'm so excited, I can't wait to leave the house to show it off.  Haaay! Now, I have to cross my fingers and hope this stuff won't crack or flake on me throughout the day!  Just in case, I'm taking my water mix with me ;)
