My hair is too unruly for gel :erm:

Would I have to apply S-Curl first?

And why would I tie the locks back?! Lil Wayne clearly doesn't know how to operate hair, how he has so much money I don't know. :K:

Is Organic Root Stimulator Lock & Twist Gel sold in the UK? You don't have to apply S - Curl or worry about tying them back depending on length. Your hair is short to medium length so don't worry about hair bands.

How to Use It - Organic Root Stimulator Lock & Twist Gel

The manufacturer's site suggests applying the gel to freshly shampooed and conditioned hair, and after styling, to set under a dryer. This would be a good method for twists, locs and coils, but you can also apply it to dry hair without worrying about flaking.

The amount you use depends on the thickness of your hair, but you don't have to use an excessive amount to get satisfactory hold. For each twist section I used it on, I used about a dime-size amount. If you need to freshen up a style, you can apply more gel, which soaks into your hair much like water.

I think this would be a good product for anyone transitioning from relaxed to natural hair, especially for a transition-friendly style like comb coils. Applying the gel to wet hair and combing through allows the two textures to blend together, making the line of demarcation less obvious. If you've done the big chop and have a "teeny weeny afro," the gel works just as well for creating coils on short, natural hair. Wear the coils for a few days or a week, loosen them up and you can enjoy a chunky 'fro for a few days more.

To keep them tied back, unless you want them all over your face....

Just shave your head, grab a pair of shades and grow a beard :bandit:

Oh good, they sell it on Amazon. You apply the gel after you have finished twisting your hair as needed. So only put more gel in your if you feel the twists are unraveling or isn't very neat.
