| Hi, i went to the store to get some aloe vera gel. i saw the leaves but i didnt know how to preserve the gel i scoop out of it and the gel i saw had other stuff in it. i eevn opened it and tried it on my skin and it was tingling. sinc ei know aloe vera gel doesnt tingle, i decided to get the fruit of the earth aloe vera juice. i was wondering if its okay to use this on my hair. will it work just like the gel? it says its like 99% aloe vera...... |

http://public.fotki.com/N4U2LM/z_hair_products__review/product__accessory/mvc-438f.html"> This is the one that I use and it can be purchased at most any drug stores. It's 100% pure gel. I mix a little w/ my moisturizers and also use w/ my pre-poo mixture. It's really light and does the job w/o weighing your hair down. I don't know about the one w/ leaves, etc.?? This is also the one most used on lhcf. ~hth~ ------------- ~~  LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE!~~

I'd think the juice would work as well, but not sure since I haven't tried that. ------------- ~~ LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE!~~

I use Fote as well...are you looking for the drinkable gel which you can get at GNC or the hair gel which usually has a few other things to thicken it? ------------- Natural BC May 9, 2004 |
