Hi, I`m a 19 year old guy with very poofy curly, nappy hair. You know everytime you put shampoo in your hair it makes your hair very soft and its easier to style. Is there any way to use a product like a gel that gives the same results as a shampoo. It helps to spike the hair.
Is relaxers good? Does it damage your scalp? Can you also spike your hair after using a relaxer?
Bye

There are many products out there. First off, make sure you are using GOOD moisturizing conditioner. You will need something of a thick consistancy like Humectress or even the moisturizing conditioner by Pantene. You may even leave a little bit in your hair. Now a days, there are tons of products to try. Look for a slicking gel. Also, the frizz control they have out in the markets would be worth the money. It will leave the hair softer, but unfortunately curly hair is extremely hard to spike. Your best solution for that is to wear your hair very short, especially on top, so that you only have about a half inch to play with. If you cut the curl right at the bending point, it may spike for you. Find someone who specializes in curly hair.
Be careful with the frizz control as you can use too much and make it greasy feeling.
Good luck.
