The Curly Closet Hi Mary! This is Jackie from NATURALLY U on Facebook! I have an ECO product for you to try! The PINK ECO STYLER GEL FOR CURLY AND WAVY HAIR! It's number 8 on the hold scale and the definition on the hair is wonderful ! Please, try it ❤️💋

Just a quick update: the Aunt Jackie's side of my hair feels softer than the Eco side, and the curls are more stretched. But even though both sides have more definition, the Eco side curls are holding their definition much better.

I always get my best WnG using Aunt Jackie's gel.I am still on the hunt for the Eco Styler

Thanks for the comparison

i love curl souffle as well one of my staples. the aunt Jackie definitely hanged longer

Aunt Jackie’s is the best gel I ever used in my hair, it’s funny because I try to stay away from it since the ingredients aren’t so pure. Idk

It's pretty cool that the Aunt Jackie's actually did kind of shrink less than the eco styler. Which is what the gel claimed it was gonna do.

This is such an awesome vid Mary very detailed and informative love it! Ps have you even used the Nyxon gel? I have and well .... say no more I would love you to do a review on that one!

I don't use any oils specifically, just products that contain oils, if that makes sense.

i think "elongating" is definitely a gimmick..it's not actually making your hair longer, which is what the terminology implies-- it's just not "shrinking" it as much as other gels. it's all about your hair's actual curl habits.

@Life.Love.Locs.

7 жыл бұрын

+Akkesama I see your point but I'm pretty sure the term is about elongation of curls. Elongating=stretching. I never read the word "elongating" to mean anything about hair getting longer - otherwise it would just say something about hair growth. Either way though, it does live up to the elongating claim for me.

i currently layer with aunt jackie’s first and then the olive oil eco because aunt jackie’s alone doesn’t seal it in enough for me but the eco by itself is not conditioning enough. i wanna try a huge tub of natural flaxseed but no one seems to make and sell em in huge tubs :/

Hi Nancy, it only works to define your hair's natural curl pattern, so if your hair has a curl or wave naturally it will define it, if your hair doesn't then it won't do anything specifically. I hope that this helps you.

Can you do a comparison on freshly washed hair?

@Life.Love.Locs.

+Tammy Johnson I'd love to but I have so many more products to try currently! To be honest, the result wouldn't be much different on freshly washed hair, my hair didn't have a lot of build up on it so the results here are pretty much the same

What about the product by itself with just a leave in...on clean hair...this is actually layering of different products from your old twist out and the shea moisture product....hair looks great tho

@Life.Love.Locs.

At this point I was just using the products as I usually would - on old hair. I never used to do wash and goes on clean hair simply because I didn't feel happy putting gel on my hair just as it had been washed. The Shea Moisture Curling Gel Souffle functions as a leave-in for me anyway.

Gel is a styling product. It is not designed to be used on naked hair, that leads to breakage. It is meant to be used with a leave-in conditioner. That is why people complain that gel makes their hair dry and hard and then say that their hair broke... because it's being used in the wrong way.

I noticed both the Aunt Jackie's gel and Eco styler flaxseed oil gel elongated your curls. Do you air dry?

Maybe because your hair was a bit dry, it was more difficult to take your fingers through the aunt Jackie's side.

I tend to add water to my hair when it starts to get dry so I don't think that was it. It just has a different consistency.

so when you do your curls have you ever dry them with a dryer ??
