CG friendly gel for bunning

[g.lo]

Hi Girls,

can someone recommend a CG gel friendly gel. I will mainly be using it for wet bunning.

thanks ladies

if by CG you mean, curly girl, then IC Fantasia sparklites gel is recommended.

I love Xtreme Gel! It smells so good...not 100% sure if it's CG friendly but it has no alcohol or protein which is what I need.

Kinky-Curly Custard. I don't use this anymore to define my curls because plain ole conditioner works fine on my 4a hair but I do use this gel when I want to slick my hair back for a puff/pony/bun and lay my edges down.

Doesn't that gel have cones in it?

I think this product has a water soluble cone in it

Hmmm...anyone know of a cone-free gel? I'm thinking of trying Proclaim's curl activator gel.

Garnier Fructis has a gel in its Pure & Free line or something like that. It has nice hold and no cones. I don't do curly girl though but I use it on my twists.

Thanks girls, is flaxseed gel effective as well for a sleek bun? i hate the consistency of it! yuk

You know what else is good for holding edges down is that Curls Passion Fruit Paste. It is all natural, def CG friendly and is the bomb.

Kinky-Curly custard does not have cones, proteins, parabens or polymers. It is pricey but you can find it at Whole Foods and a little goes a LONGGGG way! It co-washes out easily and it's the only gel I use for bunning since it's all natural, moisturizing and pretty easy on the hair. Eco Gel works, too, and doesn't have cones but it has some hard core holding power that I cut with grease and has protein. But I pretty much stick to KCC for all my slicking/bunning needs!
