Hi,
I use a little gel on my hair to style and a little rave spritz to seal it.  I wash my hair every day. Hair in good condition and shiny but recently i noticed tiny light clumps on a lot of strands,  It looks like it may be dried gel after many uses.  Doesnt come out with washing.  seems to be stuck on like glue, Can anyone advise how to get this out of my hair/off my hair strands?
Thanks.

Unfortunately gel can build up on the hair, especially really thick or firm hold gel.  If you have little hard gel pieces or clump on your hair you might first try gently picking as many off as possible with a comb. 

Some gels come with a companion shampoo product to help remove the gel. A good clarifying shampoo might help although if the gel is designed to be like a spiking gel you may need a product specifically designed to soften and remove the gel.

What gel product have you been using?
