Hey, beautiful people!
As you may have heard, Eco Styler recently came out with two new styling
gels. One is the coconut gel. The other is the black castor oil and
flaxseed gel. I recently purchased the
coconut gel in my beauty supply, and I have tried it on a variety of styles to
see how it works on my hair in comparison to some of the others.
Overall, this gel seems to mix well with my other products, particularly
the As I Am Leave-In Conditioner.
However, despite the level 10 hold stated on the Coconut Gel jar, it
seems to have a lighter hold that is more similar to the pink gel (pink is a level 8). Because of the lighter hold, my hair has
remained soft, but I have had some styling issues. For example, with my bun, the gel did not
smooth down flyaways.
With my wash n’ go, my first day hair was just ok. The coconut gel did not give me the same
definition as the Krystal or Argan Oil Eco Styler gels, likely because of the
lighter hold. Also, the hold I did get
was completely gone by the second day, and my hair looked pretty terrible by
the end of the day (see picture).
In short, I would not add this to my list of favorite Eco
Styler gels, and I probably wouldn’t repurchase it because I like other Eco
Styler gels better, but I don’t hate it enough to throw out my current jar. I will not do a wash and go with it again, but I will use it for messy buns.
Have you tried it?
