It's been a minute since I've worn my hair out but as far as curl definers the only one that I have in my stash is Miss Jessies Stretch Silkening Creme. I honestly haven't used it in awhile. And before that I used to use Kinky Curly Curling Custard which worked for a minute but after awhile made my hair feel like straw. Could've been an operator error. Lol.
I do however want to try Uncle Funky's Daughter Curly Magic and maybe, Beauty by Donna Marie's Curling Gelly.
I liked that flaxseed video and its presentation too! I am not a gel fan though. Naturally Leslie likes fantasia ic gel...I like her bun style with it.
@ ChocolateOrchid - I want to try those 2 as well
I love the homemade flaxseed gel! Tried KCCK but it took too long to dry and made my hair crunchy. Still experimenting with ecostyler so the jury still out. I have heard great things about Uncle Funky's Daughter so after I use up this ecostyler I'll try that next.
Kinky Curly Knot Today and Giovanni Leave in!
One gives me Shirley Temple curls, the other bouncy spirals!
It really feels like heaven to finally find a product that works!
