Watch this vid http://youtu.be/WsHpX3r0Jno SO TODAY, I opened an email from CurlyNikki, with this announcement: |
Ok, so I am NOT your typical gel person. AT ALL. I prefer serums if I need some type of anti-frizz. You will never see me use a gel when I wear my hair "down", and that's because gel is usually for some kind of "hold", and since my hair is so fine, the hold I get from using gel ends up looking more of a "crisp". Now, I LOVE my Aloe Vera gel, but from my "snatched" or "slicked down" style, I love my "black gel". I put ALOE VERA gel first, then put the "black gel" to give me a soft slick down look. I feel kinda DUMB for even CONTEMPLATING purchasing this gel because I have a HUGE, barely touched tub of Eco Styler ARGAN OIL gel,
 |
| I got this for $2.99 at Sallys |
which BTW, I DO NOT like. Its WAY to thick, and the hold is WAY to hard. I understand its a 10 MAX hold, so I did cut Eco Styler a little slack :)
So, in a nutshell, I think I will purchase this Ampro Olive Oil gel, because they claim it is the "most moisturizing styling gel we’ve ever made" and "our NEW Olive Oil Gel was specially formulated to meet the needs of consumers who wear their hair naturally and is also great for those who desire a hold without the hardness our protein gels provide". If it performs like my aloe-vera-gel-ampro-pro-style protein-gel mixture, then its a keeper!!
PS- other than NaturallyCurly.com, where can I buy this???????

I finally found this gel at a local beauty supply, but I had to call around. It's not at Sally's yet, at least not here in the Dallas, Texas area.
ReplyDeleteThe guy at the beauty supply told me it was a new product that they just got in. It was only 1.99 for 10oz!! Woo Hoo!!
I tried it tonight with a wash and go and so far I really like it. I co-washed and then used the KeraCare Leave In Conditioner underneath the gel. It's not completely dry but what has dried is not crunchy but has a nice hold.
I received this gel as a sample in an order from CurlMart and holy sh*t, it's the gel that I have been looking for all of my life! It saturates my dry 3b/3c curls amazingly. I must have it, it's my HG. I love that it is incredibly inexpensive compared to the other natural beauty products that are soooo high priced. Like you, I would like to know where I can purchase this as well, I live in Atlanta...the hunt is on!
