Aloe vera gel users . . . aloethix?

[trynagrow]

Can you all tell me which brand of 100% aloe vera gel you use (or post a pic) that's more like a gel?

Also, has anyone ordered or used this product, aloethix from lotioncrafter? It says it can be used as is on skin or hair so might be what I'm looking for. What do you think?

Oh yes, sorry, for the hair to be used more like a gel but I'd use it in mixes too, like with shea butter.

I have the aloe thix from lotioncrafters and it was my staple when I just BCd. it gives very light hold and no crunchiness at all.

I dont have much curl to define, but it did what it could do, given the hair it was working with LOLOL.

it doesnt mix well with condish, well HE condish/HE LTR leave in(or maybe other creamy leave ins) so if ur gonna put it over a leave in, u cant apply right after. By that I mean u have to make the leave in sit in ur hair a while and dry a bit, then add the aloe thix.

its also good for slicking down hair for a puff etc.
