      Right! Sooo much money!
      And she did say that she didn't feel she used as much of the other gel. And that's usually the case with products that work better and are more expensive - you don't go through it as fast.. Which the price difference here is so great that even using 2 or 3 times as much wouldn't make a difference.. But then there's the product buildup to consider too.. Less product equals less buildup (and everything that comes along with that)..

    The trick about the gel definition is the water, I use gel alot, I wash my hair and right after I hurriedly add the gel before it starts to dry out, I always mist it during the process to get it back wet. With all that I always get perfect curls and I only use gel no other products not even after its dry, just water to mist it 3 or 4 days after.

After it cools and I strain it, I mix in a little honey and a few oils (castor, avocado and vitamin e), for maintaining the moisture properties and sealing.
      My low-porosity hair is VERY finicky and has never liked store-bought gels, but this gel I can use to set wet or dry hair, and my hair just looks and feels glossier and smoother and thicker.

    Both products are completely different to compare them. Nurture is a plant based gel and holds onto the moisture (water) you put in your hair. It’s similar to uncle funky. Eco gel is made of plastic and not the best for your hair in the long term. It just ends up drying up your hair and leave build up. It’s cheap but not the best for the hair. Your hair looks lovely.

    • @jmichael415

      It's marketing. The main gelling agent in Nurture (Polyacrylate-14) is not plant-based nor that expensive to produce. It def holds on to moisture better than the carbomer in Eco, but ingredient-wise, it's no "cleaner." Both gelling agents are based on acrylic acid

    Hey Jess, I purchased and used the Nurture gel, however I watched the video from the Hydra Bar Salon TH-cam Channel and saw how the owner applied the gel. It’s the July 17, 2021 video. She made sure her hair was soaking wet, sectioned off her hair and again, on soaking wet hair, used the gel that was first emulsified in her hands and applied gel starting at the ends to lock in the water that was dripping and working her way up. She did each section(4-5) then used a wet brush to smooth and detangle hair in smaller sections and racked her fingers through it. Curls poppin. I watched a few times before I did my hair. My hair looked amazing. The curls were poppin even after a week but I wanted to stay on my routine. I purchased the 6 oz, $30 jar, but they now have a 8 oz $45 jar. I used half the product. She says she can get several uses out of it because she knows how to use it properly. I’m no stylist I got two. Even though it was amazing as far as the curls, it was a little bit dry. I have high porosity hair so maybe the next time I can try to use more water. After rewatching one of the videos on the channel I saw that she added more water after applying the gel. So I’ll do that next time. Also, I always sit under the dryer so that my curls will set when I do a WNG. I hope you try again using her method. You will be amazed. I loved it but I would want the 8 oz jar but for $45 I can get at least two 8 oz containers of the other expensive gels I like. I want to use a product more than 2 or three times.

      I totally agree with your comment. It seems like a lot of hairdressers in the 🇺🇸 seem to be on the same with doing WnGs. I always did them but never mastered them until I discovered Black Girl Curls. For the first time I started seeing curls from root to tips and no Frizz on my 4b/4c hair! My definition was good on dry WnGs than soaking wet hair. But since I started 'emulsifying, adding gel to ends first to trap all the water, smooth product through to large sections first to keep all that Hydration, then rake in smaller section, my WnGs pop every single time. Also, using the botanical and diffusing my hair, gave me elongation. I tried UFD and coupled with the Innersence I Create Hold???? Perfection. I realised once I got to grips with using these quality products, I only need smaller amounts because my hair is now trained. I did follow the detox whi h I picked up from other YTrs doing it. And I must say, I xant stop loving my hair. I mean, I thought I love it before but I love it even more. I think they have something! I do still use plastic gels but only to lay my hair down in buns etc but I will use a stronger shampoo to get rid of build up. But the botanical are the truth on clarified hair for WnGs because the hair is more accepting of Hydration.

    I have used Nurture gel 3 times and I like it. I find it works best on soaking wet hair so I usually apply in the shower. The spray bottles never really accomplish that. It is a water locking gel so the more water the better. Also I work up from the ends to the root. Last but not least setting the hair under a hooded dryer until about 50% dry will do wonders. The amount of Plastics in gels like eco styler and wetline makes it a no for me. I just got a taper cut so I'm sure I'll get at least 2-3 more uses of Nurture. Also if you have to use more of a cheaper gel and or another product, it isn't as cheap.

    I would go for the product with less damaging ingredients for my hair. The definition isn't worth it if it's going to be bad for my hair long term. They gave similar results, so I would go for the product with better ingredients rather than chase the perfect definition. Type 4 hair can be so easily manipulated into whatever style we want anyways, so I'm not too pressed about having the most definition.

It’s the best gel I ever used and made my hair grow a lot. It’s been a TOTAL game changer for me! & The good part is that it comes in a 32oz jar! So yes, 26oz more product!

It would need to have multiple uses like, shampoo, co-wash, leave-in, styler AND GEL for me to purchase. And that's probably not gonna happen. Lol. The most I have spent on a product for curls was the Camille Rose Curl Maker. And I only purchase that with a 40% off coupon from CVS. I get those every 5 days. I'm thrifty. 😩

I feel like that's the result most curly heads go for so u got what u paid for. When ur getting the desired look, the price u pay is nothing compared to the contentment of a satisfied hairstyle of a natural chick. Ita hard to find the right product boo, cant win em all so be thankful bcuz the ppl that created the product knew they understood the assignment which is why ur paying for the QUALITY of them hitting the nail on the head🤷‍♀️💕💕💕

    Hey Jess, I've been loving your videos. I went to the website for this company and I'm realizing that they are following the model of Deva Curl which is the curling salon for folks with curly hair issues. Most of their clients are white, Hispanic or mixed race women (I've brought my mixed raced daughter there). I'm wondering if this company is spinning off from that. The technique with Hydration and lots of product. Good for them though!! I'm willing to try it if only to support the salon. Ultimately price is a real thing! I hate spending too much money hair stuff and cosmetics!! So I may try it once but will also head to my local drug store for more affordable products. Keep up the good work Jess. Love the comments too. Thanks all!

    I love to see the transformation and the differences.

The more expensive one in this case is much much better. It's absolutely amazing it's beautiful on you!!!

  • @arielhaynes5438

    I have the same results when putting my hair in a bonnet it after doing the wash and go but what I was trying to figure out was if the hair was dry when it was put in the bonnet that could’ve messed up some of the results for the $30 side and I think it would’ve looked a lot better if the hair was 100% dry before it was put in the bonnet for the night and when you pulled it off I’m pretty sure those curls on the $30 side would’ve been intact. Now me personally I have yet to find a gel that works on my 4A 4B curls especially Eco styler because it doesn’t work it’s super drying and my hair always looks puffy and frizzy after air drying no matter how much I glob on. For me I would give the $30 gel a try but I don’t see myself repeat buying it unless it was a miracle worker in my hair

I’ve used the gel and I love it but for only one use it’s a no for me. I have a jar under my sink it’s still has product in there but not enough for my whole head

    Even though they looked a bit similar I would say what is the long term effect on the $30 product?
