This is a long one, but a super comprehensive guide to gels! In my opinion, gel is THE most important product in your routine so you have to have the right one for good resultsbrDownload the chart I mentioned in the video here, and find all the video notes: genamarieco/2023/09/are-you-using-the-wrong-gel-how-to-pick-the-best-gel-for-your-curls/ Comment from : @GenaMarie

Such a helpful video!! I had wavy to curly hair growing up, but years of dying and heat styling - I kinda forgot I had them until this summer when I started my curly hair journey Work in progress and still learning, but getting more wave and curl now This gel talk was just what I needed! Any recommendations for fine gray hair with high porosity? (Maybe bordering on medium porosity - not 100 sure) Comment from : @KarenCooley

Which gel would you recommend for high humidity weather? I feel that nothing can stop the frizz 😢 Comment from : @agataglo

I have very high porosity bleached hair I use protein shampoo, I use the Curlsmith custard gel but by day 3 I have unbelievable high frizz, hair snaps Is this wrong gel to use Comment from : @sharonchancey8938

My challenge is that I have four different types of curls…in the back tight and corkscrew, sides loose curls, top dry and frizzy, lower back wavy not curly Can one product help? Comment from : @GiGi5809

Thanks for sharing and very helpful Comment from : @audreyso1201

This is amazing! Thank you so much So pleased I’ve found you and I love your product page search - I just hope I can get them as I’m in the UK! Some products are therefore a lot more expensive, but fingers crossed 🤞🏻 Newbie here 40 years old and never realised I was a curly girl!! Comment from : @laurahumphreyshealth3665

I love Biotera Defining Gel bestso far Comment from : @deborahrusses4029

My curls seem fine except for one section which tends to frizz Should I find a second gel for that one section? Comment from : @deborahrusses4029

My hair has always been very porous Not damaged, it’s just its natural state of being It’s also greasy and curly at the same time Not a product issue; it’s always greasy If it’s short, I have to wash every day—if it’s long, I can go 3 days between washing Comment from : @schoolingdiana9086

Thanks for the video Gena Do you also recommend Ouidad for the winter too? I live in the Netherlands is dry but extreme but mostly is wet rains a looootttt Comment from : @PersonalPowerLegacy

Your hair looks amazing in this video <3 Comment from : @mayamiri

I have wavy to curly low porosity thick hair I need a strong hold that will help build the curl I have been using Moroccan Oil Beach Wave Mousse and it works great But it is being discontinued Any suggestions on a product to replace Comment from : @jenniferlawson5612

I tried the Ouidad gel you recommended and it worked well in terms of hold and shine, etc but I woke up the next morning with tons of white residue in my hair Never happened before with any other gel product Thoughts on why that might have happened? Am I just out of luck on Ouidad? Comment from : @user-qr1xr3sv7w

This makes total sense I have all these hard hold gels but by day 2 my curls fall flat no matter how I style When I looked at the ingredients none of those you mentioned were in them Trying the Ouidad one out 🤞 Comment from : @shannonniedermeier1056

Hi Gena I am looking for advice on which oil I can use in my hair to dry detangle? I don’t know which to buy and want to start to detangle my hair dry Thank you! Comment from : @maddyjo57

Hi! Did you have a video on how you apply your gels? Comment from : @keelyfogarty3011

For people who have tried the umberto curl jelly and the twist gel, which do you prefer? Comment from : @amanday3103

Thank you so much for breaking this down! After 50 yrs of having curly hair, maybe now i can finally stop simply pulling it back and loving my hair with all that comes with curls❤ Comment from : @his_creation9061

Ty!😊 Comment from : @susielewis7417

This is tremendously helpful! Trying to embrace my curls after many years of blowing it out, coupled with hair changes due to thyroid issue has opened up a confusing world of curl products! Your videos are informative and easy to follow I love that you always list product recommendations, too Thank you! Comment from : @cicelybega5419

You’re so thorough! I am learning about how to wash and style my coarse wavy hair and battle my frizz, and your content is so helpful! The few times I’ve tried gel in the past it’s been a sticky experience, plus I didn’t know to apply it to wet hair! Comment from : @geniej2378

I use Ouidad gel, but I don't know why my curls don't get cast evenly Some are crunchy, and some are not I try my best to apply evenly but same results Some strands look seprated and dry and frizzy Comment from : @geetusharma6930

Why does it have to be so complicated?! 😅😅 I'm at the point of just using whatever i have because I've tried a bunch and my hair rarely behaves the same way consistently 😅 I've learned to embrace a bit of frizz and prefer it a bit messy looking In general, my best curl days are when I use a gel and a mousse over top! Thank you for such a well researched and thoughtful video! Its very helpful, and now I have some new gels I will try when I use up what I have! 😆 Comment from : @saral6978

What are humidity blocking ingredients we can look for? Comment from : @dkb2375

Wow Gena your amazing! Thank you so much for all the helpful tips!🤗 Comment from : @soniaburgos4595

What product has a stupid high hold but doesn't leave a dry, rough feeling? The Ouidad in the red bottle doesn't provide enough hold for me but it does leave my hair feeling soft I usually use the blue LA Looks gel (10 hold) but it leaves my hair feeling rough and dry Comment from : @artax9683

Is there any gel that doesn't leave product buildup? The white stuff that looks chalky Comment from : @exhibitjean

Do u use hairspray on your hair? Will a good gel or curl cream be enough for hold? I feel like I am using too much hairspray and would like to get away from it all together! Comment from : @brookelarroque9546

I use a thick gel and my hair feels very crunchy 😢 and not soft, what can I do? Comment from : @martas1412

You lost me when you said low porosity hair should avoid protein! My fine, high density, low porosity hair LOVES protein Comment from : @baozi5536

Hey Gena, I think you should do a video on the new Define Styling Brush by Bounce Curl It is supposed to be like the Denman brush only better Thanks so much for all of your curly hair content Comment from : @taintedxtwisted

Wow what a great video! This journey has been so confusing for me but you explain everything so clearly Can't wait to try out some new products! Comment from : @deeleo2495

I choose my gels based on environmental/climate condition, density, style option and my hair texture to choose my hair products instead of porosity because it can change at anytime Comment from : @uberhaute_naturalz84

Thank you for your great information! I downloaded your chart, I’m very interested in that My hair is more fine, but high porosity due to coloring I always hear that protein is needed for high porosity, but more protein in a gel makes my hair feel awful I would appreciate any thoughts you might have And I’ll look at your chart! Thank you!! Comment from : @darlasearle5955

Thanks so much for this It’s very helpful! Comment from : @Heather-nd5pg

I feel like grey hair changes the whole porosity analysis My grey hair takes long to get wet but loses moisture and definition quickly It also hates protein aloe and flaxseed in stylers I’m on the hunt for a hydrating hard hold gel that does not contain these ingredients Any recommendations?? Comment from : @lisamackenzie8504

Off topic but ❤ your nail polish 😊 and wondering what it was? Comment from : @carmajo2500

Help…I can’t seem to get a gel cast 😕…I have low porosity (to medium maybe), fine and quite low density…I’ve been trying strong holds ie Ouidad climate control strong hold and jessicurl strong hold…playing with the amount from nickel to quarter size (hesitant to use too much as my hair is so fine) had high hopes for both based on past feedback you’ve shared on them…but virtually no crunch after diffusing which just leaves my curls way too soft to not end up frizzy with no definition within the day or next …especially if anything touches them…any suggestions? Comment from : @heidimason350

I have a gel that's enriched with flaxseed and wheat protein, is it okay for high porosity hair? that's all I have lol Comment from : @pinkhannii

Thank you so much for the information! I never have understood my hair I think I'm high porosity but not sure My hair gets wet easily but seems to take a long time to dry But the crown dries faster and gets frizzy I may try the Ouidad But you put a lot into this video that can help with figuring out what might help my hairthank you! Comment from : @bethallen7723

thank you Comment from : @dagnolia6004

Fantastic post!!!! Been struggling with different gels Off to the bathroom to go ingredient hunting in my gels Thank you Gena Comment from : @claudiataormina9331

So helpful thanks Gena I can’t hear this information enough, each time I watch your videos I learn something and after nearly 9 months of experimenting it’s sinking in brI have medium/course hair and I think it’s lower porosity but because it’s wavy/looser curl I still need stronger hold I’ve found the Curlsmith soufflé the best for me so far AG and Bounce curl make my hair feel dry so I’m guessing it’s the protein I bought the Ouidad gel but I must’ve bought the lighter hold version because it doesn’t do much for me I also want to try the Innersense gel I have a very sensitive scalp and my hair gets build up so easily so I love the more natural brands So lucky to live in time when there’s more options for wavy and curly hair Comment from : @belindachappell9875

I've definitely been going through gel woes lately, so this video is a godsend! I have fine hair that is very healthy, and I only use the Curlsmith Shine Cream and the Shine Jelly as my stylers, but my hair always feels producty afterward, and it has that crispy "wet" look for a solid two to three days after diffusing But these are super lightweight, so im like how could I go lighter?? lol Not sure if I should just decrease the amount but I already don't use much? Any other gels you would recommend? The Jessicurl one sounds intriguing!brbrIf youre looking for any video topics, as a fine hair curly I've been trying out a few different spray heat protectants: The new Eva NYC primer for fine hair, the sun bum heat protectant spray, and the Curlsmith shield as well Even the new Olaplaex Blowout Mist The Curlsmith one is great but its super high protein so im a bit wary of it Have you found any heat protectants that play well with Curlsmith, or any lightweight heat protectants you would recommend in general? thanks so much, Gena, it feels like your videos always come at the perfect time!! no fuss or filler, just practical tips and really helpful, accessible information Comment from : @hollydefnet4705

Thanks for another great video! I prefer the AG Liquid Effects over the Ouidad gel only because I don't care for the scent of the Ouidad gel 🤷🏻‍♀️ Comment from : @jessg829

Great tutorials!brI just bought styler products of tre-lux my hair was horrible I have high porosity and low density The 2nd wash day I used it with a stronger hold of curl smith or Ouidad the red labeled bottle it was much better It hold up to 3 days Comment from : @irmaradinson2320

I was JUST talking about this today to my coworkers! Thank you so much for this video☺️ Comment from : @ahdri

Very informative, appreciate the viedo as always Comment from : @lisacampagna5972

I bought a lot of the products you’ve mentioned since I found you this past winter I’m still experimenting , can’t say I’ve found the perfect combo for my hair type yet but when I do I’m buying a boatload so I can stop thinking about it !!! Lol Comment from : @joycebenvenuti4782

As always, AWESOME FEED!! THANK YOU!! Comment from : @sueh4851
