    I love that you left room for non-synthetic/natural ingredient gels. Sometimes as black naturals we try to out natural the meaning of natural and it's not to shit on "botanical" but I love that you subconsciously acknowledge that a lot of us are looking for Eco/Wetline type of result and don't give a damn between the diff of botanical and all natural lol

    Your hair looks absolutely beautiful! It looks so healthy, shiny and full. I'm so happy you told us this was a twist out. I was guessing a wash and go all day.

    What, no KKCC!?! 🤣 🤣 It's the first botanical gel I used back in 2008 and is still in my stash to this day. Haven't used all of the ones on your list yet, but the ones I have used are great. I especially like the Obia Naturals Custard because many times I get much more hold than I want from some of the gels since I tend to wash and restyle twice a week. I've been eyeing Ecoslay, but it may have more hold than I'm comfortable with.

  • @gvenelus24
    @gvenelus24 Před 3 lety +8

    The Obia Naturals custard is bae 😍 It works for all hairstyles and never flake no matter what I pair it with 🙌🏾 UFD gave me great definition but not enough hold for this Florida heat 🤦🏾‍♀️ Curl maker and the lavender crush gel did absolutely nothing for my 4a/4b curls so both of them went right back to Target 🤷🏾‍♀️ I don’t plan to try any of the other gels because I found my true love in the Obia Naturals custard and unless they change the formula, her and I will be together forever 🥰😂

      UFD is claiming the ingredients haven't changed, they are just updating the label. That seems a little suspect to me. Even is that is the case, I can no longer trust the brand. It's really to bad because the gel was GOAT!

    Great video. Thank you for the tip on Treluxe. I don't get flakes but I don't get much hold either so I'll try the reverse wngo. Another 3 products in the realm of botanical products are Nature's little secret flaxseed gel and the Irish Moss cream and Ecoslay's Orange marmalade. A little goes a long way to avoid flaking though.

    Hiiii 🖐🏽 from the UK. Your hair is gorgeous! ❤️
    Thank you so so so much for this info. I've been natural for about 6 years, my hair is type 4, tapered, and thought I was lo po (according to water test). I can do a wng but recently I've noticed my hair just won't retain moisture no matter what I do (hi po characteristics). I have a few botanicals and I know they're moisturising, but I struggled to find a leave in that mixed well but didn't add too much moisture, cos then my hair wouldn't curl. I also have PM The Conditioner, so you've just solved my problem. And the info about the oil for Xanthan gum based products is just gold!
    Update: Just did a WnG, it came out great! PM the Condish, SM Cupuaçu Gel (elongation), a little SM Coconut & Hibiscus Gel Soufflé (very moisturising oily gel), and topped with ORS Curl Clumping Gel (for hold). Moisture, shine, elongation, definition and hold. My quest is finally complete! 👍🏽❤️
