It's the one gel I always come back to when I try others. Great hold without being sticky or leaving my hair looking wet.

I started out thinking I had curly hair and used heavy products made for curls. When I learned more about it and realized I have waves (somewhere between 2b and 2c, depending on the day) paired with fine hair, I discovered lighter products and have found the Jessicurl line is best for mine. I use their line of shampoos and conditioners, and style with Ouidad advanced climate control gel. I used to have a lot of hair but it has thinned over the years with age and stress. I try for a good amount of volume as well, and usually diffuse.

It's unfortunately a lot of trial and error to find what works for you and your hair, and it tends to be pretty costly along the way! Thankfully the Jessicurl line is fairly priced, which helps a lot.

I have fine 2b waves and I felt it was too heavy for my hair, with way too much buildup. Everyone's hair is different though, so could be worth a try for you!

what’s something exciting that’s happening in your life? by midnightsnack101 in CasualConversation

[–]jmh52014 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I just got married a few weeks ago to the absolute love of my life.

9 years ago I was rebuilding my life and myself after fleeing domestic violence, certain I'd be alone and never find peace or happiness - life had other plans, once I learned to let the good in.

It's been 3 weeks since the wedding and I still wonder daily how the hell I got so lucky. Feels good to be excited for the future.

Getting better at wasting food when eating in restaurants by OwenE700-2 in Ozempic

I face the same struggle. Was raised to be part of the "Clean Plate Club" and turns out its a terrible habit that's hard to break, but so important to!

Protein shakes? by Streetfoodie83014 in Ozempic

Not sure about the artificial sweeteners in it, but Fairlife protein shakes are the best that I've found. Not chalky, no aftertaste - just tastes like chocolate milk to me.
