GEL AND SCULPTING SPRAYS
FOR AFRICAN-AMERICAN HAIR CARE
  1. Is it Ok to gel the hair if you wash & condition every couple days, but then turn right around & re-gel it again? I desperately need a style to wear my short hair until it grows out. It looks horrible now that I don't (hot) curl it daily anymore. It's too short to twist too.
  2. I remember reading in your book that hair spray is bad for your hair because it has components that are drying for the hair. I have been looking at different hair sprays and am noticing another chemical in all these sprays which is isobutane. Can isobutane be damaging to hair??
  3. I know that some things are necessary in hair styling products to give them shelf life, is isobutane one of them?
  4. I enjoy wearing style like hard wraps, finger waves, and straw curls; these are all styles that require heavy hair spray (yes there is hair loss with these styles) do you recommend staying away from such styles?
  5. What kind of gel is okay for this style? Do you have any suggestions by brand name?
  6. I have to use a styling gel that doesn't have dulling resins, alcohol or colour to help lay down the short edges around the front of my hair line where the braids broke it off, because if not my hair just stick-up around the edges. Do you think I'm on the right track to rebuilding my natural hair back to the healthy state it once was?
