Hi everyone! I am thinking of going natural (I'm almost 6 months post
right now) and I have a question. People who have 3a-c usually use gel
in their hair to keep the curls all nice and curly and not frizzy. I
was just wondering.. I have 4a/4b hair and I have been using fantasia
IC gel with sparkle lights for my "bangs" and I really like how they
really define my curls and "stretch" them out in a way. Do you think
once I go all natural I will be able to use this gel everyday? So far I
am LOVing the results.. I have noticed there is protein in the gel so I
make sure to use a good moisturizer, but I was wondering what you all
think of me using the gel everyday on all of my hair. Thanks so much!

I think it would work great for the rest of your hair. It's a good gel that is popular w/ a lot of naturals. I really like it because it dosen't get hard and crunchy and it makes my hair shine.

I have 4a textured hair and Smooth n' Shine Activator Gel w. Aloe is my fav! I like the IC gel as well but Smooth 'n Shine leaves my hair feeling softer and I use it on a regular basis. http://groups.msn.com/CarliesHairJourney/carliesnaturaljourneybegins.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=203 - Here's a recent photo of my hair using Smooth 'n Shine

Great! I'm so excited for my hair to grow! LOL. I'll have
to pick up the smooth and shine activator gel, I always like to have
two of each of the leave in products I use for my hair so I
can alternate.
