How I use Eco Styler Gel (Moroccan Argan Oil)?

I decided to use this gel on my transition hair to do my braids.  When I worked this into my bang area, I noticed that the gel was more watery than the Eco Styler Gel (Krystal). It also was not as sticky.  When I started to work on the section of hair that was closer to my right ear, I noticed that this product tangled my hair.  The gel locked up at the demarcation line between my natural hair and my relaxed hair.  Once this happen, I stopped applying this to do my braids.  In terms of laying down my edges, it did an okay job.  This product did create a better shine than its Krystal counterpart.

I am going to try this product on a wash n go when I am fully natural. However, for now, I tried it with my 5 chunky braids out style. Nice shine, not too great on the hold and curl definition.


Have you used the product before? How was your experience?

    I have used the Olive Oil Eco Styler Gel and I like it for my twist-out style. It gave my style some hold, shine and my hair was very soft.

      I need to give the Olive Oil version a try because the Argan oil hold is not doing it for me....=(

Does having lots of hair on your arm means long hair on your head?

Image
  No, having a lot of hair on your arms doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll have long hair on your head. Hair growth patterns, thickness, and length on different parts of the body are influenced by factors such as genetics, hormones, and individual biology. For example: • Hair on arms is usually vellus or terminal hair, which grows to a certain length and then stops. • Scalp hair grows continuously in a cycle (anagen, catagen, telogen phases), allowing it to become much longer than body hair. While genetics may influence both arm and scalp hair characteristics, they don’t directly determine the length of one based on the other.

How to know your hair porosity

Image
Hair porosity refers to how well your hair absorbs and retains moisture. There are three main levels of porosity: low, medium, and high . To determine your hair porosity, you can use the following methods: 1. The Float Test • Take a few strands of clean, dry hair (no product or oil on it). • Fill a glass or bowl with room-temperature water. • Drop the hair strands into the water and wait 2–4 minutes. • Low porosity: Hair floats on top, as the cuticles are tightly closed and resist absorbing water. • Medium porosity: Hair slowly sinks to the middle, as it absorbs a balanced amount of water. • High porosity: Hair quickly sinks to the bottom, as it absorbs water easily due to open or damaged cuticles. 2. The Slip Test • Run your fingers up a strand of hair from the tip to the root. • Low porosity: Hair feels smooth, indicating tightly closed cuticles. • Medium porosity: Hair feels slightly textured, indicating healthy cuticles. • High porosity:...
