Eco Styler Olive Oil Styling Gel, 235 ml

Product Information

They use the absolute lowest possible level of PPD (p-Phenylenediamine), and only when an alternative is not possible. I’ve found that Eco Style gels do go a bit farther than some other gels, and if you accidentally use too much they can flake, so err on the side of using a bit less. To combat the problem, you must be very careful in your selection of hair products to ensure you are not adding extra stress on your curls. This means steering clear of products containing drying alcohols, sulphates, phthalates and parabens. My hair hadn’t fallen too badly on day 2, but I just couldn’t stand how my hair felt so I re-washed earlier than usual. If I were to try this gel again, I’d try using less and adding in a lot of water to mix it with (or applying it to soaking wet hair) or I’d try using more, to see if either of those would give me better results. These treatments are pure and simple ways to give your hair a deep conditioning treatment that de-frizzes, shines, and helps your hair maintain moisture by targeting the follicles themselves (therefore decreasing your need for regular conditioner!).

Offering ultimate frizz-control and a silky-smooth hold, this gel works for wavy as well as super kinky hair – it’s all about adjusting the quantity to your hair’s needs. Both formulas are 100% vegan and “0% pretentious”, containing a short list of CCOF or USDA-certified organic ingredients like corn starch, baking soda, maranta arundinacea root powder, kaolin clay, rosemary leaf oil, and peppermint oil to refresh your senses as well as your hair. Sadly, that softness and less hold means that my hair falls faster. I thought day 2 was okay, but day 3 fell a lot. The ‘day 3’ picture here actually makes my hair look a bit wavier than it really was, I think. On the other hand, some people have decided to err on the side of caution and avoid it completely as the company could be lying for all they know. In addition to Dry Shampoo for all hair types, Acure offers one specifically for brunette to dark hair with added cocoa powder to resolve this issue.From their natural dry shampoo to their home cleaners, everything is vegan, cruelty-free, sulfate-free, silicone-free, and paraben-free, ensuring a conscious and compassionate hair care experience. So I just decided to use one for this post and I went with the Argan Oil version. I knew this gel doesn’t work well on damp hair, so I used it on wet hair. Not only do the sisters personally try all products on themselves and their families before approving them, but they also run every ingredient through the Environmental Working Group database to ensure every single one is non-toxic. Unlike traditional hairsprays, it won’t leave hair feeling crinkly and crisp, but rather provides a soft, all-day hold that works especially well on difficult hair types, such as fine or oily hair.

The gel has a lot of plant ingredients that should be suitable for all hair types and sensitive skin. Handcrafted with a blend of predominantly coconut oil and cocoa butter, these bars also incorporate a variety of nourishing plant oils (without the use of palm oil) and a Pro-Vitamin Complex to enhance shine and strength. Another consideration is your hair texture. You may have frizzy hair, oily hair, thin hair, dry hair, or any other type, and there is a hair gel that is ideal for your texture. I see this gel recommended pretty frequently in wavy and curly hair groups. The Giovanni brand in general seems to be known for making light products that tend to work well with wavy hair. I saw someone say that this gel goes a long way, so at first I tried using a small amount.I realized I needed to use way more, so I tried 8 pumps, which wasn’t quite enough. The final time, I finally got good coverage with 10 pumps. This is still a bit less than I’d usually use of other gels. That includes increasing the danger of indoor air pollution . Most personal care products are inherently designed to evaporate, and many contain volatile chemical products (VCPs) that now constitute half of the fossil-fuel volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emissions in industrialized cities, even with fuel-related sources like cars.

Unlike their Defining Hair Spray, this one is alcohol-free, as well as certified USDA organic with no parabens, sulfates, phthalates, gluten, silicone, or synthetic fragrances. Overall, I loved Dippity Do Girls With Curls Gelee, it gave long-lasting results that suited my style preferences! I had never had my hair look this good on day 3 without refreshing before. Although this is a definition-over-volume type of product, I still really liked it thanks to how long the style lasted. Since the company started with the dream of having less plastic in the world, their entire production model is completely plastic free. If you’ve gone through your whole life with a head full of curls, you’ll have learned the dos and don’ts of haircare and styling by now. You’ll know that curls are famously dry and thirsty, hence heat treatments are a big no-no.I found that it looked okay at first, but that my hair fell faster than usual. So I tried it again, using more gel, and still found that my hair just didn’t last as long with this gel as I see with some other gels, particularly on my straighter side. I think it just doesn’t have strong enough hold from wash day on, to support my more fragile, looser waves on that side of my head. She started the company after becoming a “label reader” and realizing many “natural” products are not actually natural at all. My day 3 hair had more definition remaining than I typically see. It did seem to give me smaller clumps than usual, but this isn’t something I personally care too much about.
