    I have not used the Eco Styler Olive oil before. I do love the Argan Oil one a lot. Thanks for the detailed review.

    I just transitioned from the olive to the argon and the contrast is amazing! It doesn't turn white like the olive. The argon is much better for a wash n go.

    this video was perfect. I used the olive oil Eco styler gel and the hold is very strong and for me after maybe 2 days of natural curls the crunch would be gone. I brought but haven't tried the Argan oil Eco styler gel yet but this review has helped me a lot ☺️. Thanks !

  • @JennGaule
    @JennGaule 11 лет назад +1

    I tried out the Eco Styler Argan oil gel and the Shea Moisture Souflle for a wash and go!! Wow! It worked really well...and my hair was not as sticky as when I use the Shea Moisture Souffle alone!! Thank you once again!

    FINALLY a natural type 4 hair look. Everytime i search "natural..." i get these ladies with wavy hair. And yeah they're pretty and their hair is nice but not all black ladies look like that.
    Thanks sis for a great review

    The argan oil gel and curl souffle are my favorite wash and go products! I had the same experience with the two gels.

  • @LoniYoni
    @LoniYoni 10 лет назад +8

    I love the olive oil one.The crunch is not bad I don't mind it.It just allows my twist outs to last longer.It's only hard for 2days and you can add oils to your hair to take the crunch away the day of applying it

    • @LoniYoni
      @LoniYoni 4 года назад +1

      @Sarachel Mt oh gosh, l left that comment 6years ago...lol I had to watch the video again.OH Gosh no, I never do white cream stylers or conditioners with gels, because yes it will leave white residue in your hair.
      I do clear conditioners like Paul Mitchell or Cantu Styling Custard-care4kids, miss Jessie's coily Custard Or just Any Oil before applying the gel.

    • @LoniYoni
      @LoniYoni 4 года назад

      @Sarachel Mt you're welcome 🙂

  • @NaturalMe4C
    @NaturalMe4C  11 лет назад +1

    No problem! It worked well with the things I used on my hair :) (BTW, try mixing a little of the gel with the products your planning to use in you hair and rub them together in your hands (like you would lotion). If it makes little balls or chunks that aren't meshing then there is a big chance that if going to flake in your hair. If its creamy or a little chunky but then "creams" together, it should be fine in your hair :) )

  • @mzladrj8711
    @mzladrj8711 8 лет назад +4

    I just did a tutorial on laying down my 4c edges with the eco w/argan and it does not leave that hard crunchy dry feeling or flakes. I love it! I just discovered using a edge control after it dries helps with extra hold!

  • @mobiletherapeuticsbyshaniq8501
    @mobiletherapeuticsbyshaniq8501 4 года назад +2

    Beautiful hair! 🤩
    My 4c hair texture loves the argan for coils. Instant coils when applied. I was surprised as I never thought my hair would be capable of showing defined coils. I have a slightly tight S curl pattern once the gel is applied. I am thinking of trying out their eco castor oil/coconut oil to see if I get the same defined results. I just love finding products that works 😁😁

  • @NaturalMe4C
    @NaturalMe4C  11 лет назад

    I prefer to use no gel for my true wash and goes because my hair need a ton of moisture in its shrunken state... but I make an exception for the curling souffle from shea moisture because it isn't harsh on my hair.

  • @NaturalMe4C
    @NaturalMe4C  11 лет назад +2

    I cowash my hair when I want to remove gel and other products :) I usually go no more than 4 days wearing a wash and go. If I'm wearing my hair in its 100 percent shrunken state I like to cowash it every 1-2 days....or stretch it out into a larger fro. It just depends on the elements lol.

  • @LeeKnowsCatss
    @LeeKnowsCatss 10 лет назад +3

    I really like your videos, I'm a 4c so it's nice to see someone with hair that's so similar to mine. You have a new subscriber!

  • @NaturalMe4C
    @NaturalMe4C  11 лет назад

    No problem :) You may be using too much product (souffle) :) I've only gotten white residue in the beginning of my natural journey using the smoothie because it wasn't absorbing well. I've adjusted the amount I use and it works well for me now.

  • @epiphani25
    @epiphani25 11 лет назад

    just wanted to tell you that I enjoy watching your videos. Your hair texture is so similar to mine and I have found that there aren't many RUclipsrs with natural hair channels with hair that is as close in texture to mine. You're very informative. Looking forward to more from you and I need to check out your blog one day.

  • @NaturalMe4C
    @NaturalMe4C  11 лет назад

    No problem! I wanna try a few others one day as well :) particularly the yellow one and maybe the blue one.

    You are a gem! Thanks for your awesome review! I had the exact same experience with those two gels. After my BC, I had gotten the Argan oil by accident because my local supply store was out of the olive oil one. So, when I finished it, I tried the olive oil gel. No likey.

  • @ketakeetz
    @ketakeetz 11 лет назад +1

    This is so great I love watching you although I dont have 4c hair because I get to see differences, my 4a hair loves the olive oil gel. I must add that it does get very hard but when it dries I soften it by using a spray bottle of water and a mixture of coconut and olive oil!!! Thanx for the vid

  • @JennGaule
    @JennGaule 11 лет назад +1

    Great review!! I am still trying to see what products work for me and I recently decided to give the Eco Styler Argan Oil a second try...I will see how it works for me with the Shea Moisture Souffle.

    @CLyno_Tha_Black_Rose 4 года назад +1

    For some reason the green one makes my hair break off. But I recently tried the argan oil and I like it so far.

    @BklynBabe 11 лет назад

    I have a whole bottle of the green one too. I figure I'll save it for future buns and ponytails one day lol. Does not work otherwise for me. I'm using the Loreal cream gel for finger coils. No hold really but helped with shine. I like soft hair anyway. Gel dries out my hair.

  • @Lukewarmtater
    @Lukewarmtater 11 лет назад

    I have used both the green and the yellow one and what I do is I keep my old jar, wash it out, put half of the gel in the old jar and add water the jar and shake it up, its not as crunchy then and still has great hold, plus it lasts FOREVER.

    My aunt gave me the olive oil kind, and I guess I have noticed some of the things she said like the flakes and stuff. Thanks for the review because I will definitely be telling my mom to get me the one with Argan oil. :D( btw people I'm not a woman who still depends on her mother ] I'm 13 )

  • @curlynella1011
    @curlynella1011 11 лет назад

    I have the argan oil, it is that same huge jar, I think I will have that jar for like five years, i like using it when I'm stretching my relaxer and I apply to my edges, it defines my curls so good, I have wavy edges instead of puffy edges, i love it. And I also use it for my rollersets which I ventured odd t try miss Jessie's pillow soft and jelly curls

  • @Essenceofme
    @Essenceofme 11 лет назад

    Have you tried using the Olive Oil version to make a custard? I have both the Argan and the Olive Oil but the Argan works best for my W&G. But I use the Olive Oil to make a custard and it's awesome.

  • @quenquen200726
    @quenquen200726 11 лет назад

  • @Junglequeen-pw4ob
    @Junglequeen-pw4ob 8 лет назад +4

    I just tried eco styler gel the one with olive ol, I like that it doesnt dry hair like most reputable gels over here but the flaking (my word) , it was horrible. I applied shea butter mixed with cocconut and argan oil to avoid the gel dryin ma hair too much. I literally had to shampoo it off like a few seconds ago and I am just gone leave ma hair like tht with no product. so ready for a PS rn

  • @leahphylese685
    @leahphylese685 9 лет назад

    Yep I agree with you, the Olive Oil gel gives my hair this flaky crunch that I just CAN'T take! So I will definitely go and check out the Argan Oil gel.

  • @LadyCharity
    @LadyCharity 11 лет назад

    I did not like the eco styler olive oil gel so much--its okay for twist outs but I don't like the feel of my hair with gel at all. I purchased the eco styler pink gel in the pink bottle for curly textures last month (couldn't find the argan oil one) and it works well for my protective styles but my plan is to get the eco styler argan oil gel b/c it seems like a better fit for my hair. Thanks for your review :)

  • @goldeelocks
    @goldeelocks 11 лет назад

    Try adding an oil/leave in to your hair before u apply the gel. Gels are formulated for hold so if you use it by itself it will be very hard

  • @ebonniekins
    @ebonniekins 11 лет назад

    You think that one is big, I have the big 5lb container that I was gifted with from Ecoco so I am set for awhile. I love the Argan Gell and so does my hair. Now the Olive Oil one, my hair was not a happy camper!

  • @NaturallyNesi08
    @NaturallyNesi08 11 лет назад

    I've added olive oil to my Eco styler Olive oil gel. ( I mean 1/2 of a cup to the same large container as yours). Maybe you can use up the olive oil gel. (I hope this helps).

  • @DalgonaC
    @DalgonaC 11 лет назад

    For me personally the Arran honestly doesn't have any hold for my hair and it never got crunchy. It actually for me feels like I put water in my hair lol. But I like the fact that it's not crazy hold. I like Shea moistures gel because after I use it my hair remains moisturized for days. Lol

  • @NaturalMe4C

  • @tequilashots875
    @tequilashots875 10 лет назад

    Its interesting that the ingredients are the same except for the oils. I just got the one with olive oil because I went outside and my curls poofepoofed so fast it looked like I hadn't done anything to it at all. Maybe I'll pick up the argan oil and try it next time to see the difference. Thanks for the review!!! I was told gels don't work well on 4c hair. If this works on 4c hair it must be some powerful stuff!!!!!

  • @gohenminschar277
    @gohenminschar277 8 лет назад +2

    Argan rain %100 Pure Argan Oil is an excellent moisturizing hair treatment. I use this all the time especially after a long day at the beach. It keeps my hair soft and manageable. The bottle is enough and a little really goes a long way. I like to use right after I wash my hair and let it air dry naturally.

  • @KelliM
    @KelliM 11 лет назад

    I finally found the argon oil gel and I agree, it's a lot better. Although the olive oil defines my curls more, the argon oil makes my hair softer and lasts longer.

  • @LADYVIKING05
    @LADYVIKING05 10 лет назад

    I don't get any crunch on my hair. Lol. I have the olive oil, argan oil, and the clear ecostyler gel. They all work the same for me. It enhances my waves. It says "10" hold, but I beg to differ. It doesn't seem like a 10 hold at all, more like a 7 hold, but I love all three of them! 😃👏👏

    Was on debate about which to try between the olive & argon. Will go for the argon. The one Gel I've been trying for 2 weeks has left my hair super dry and hard. I'm now noticing tangles I didn't have. Only thing helping to add moist is my coconut oil. Does argon leave the hair dry and hard? 😕

    I have recently learned that Argan Plus Exotic Oils can help to replenish collagen in the face, so I wanted to include it into my Lavender and Rosemary Shea Butter Face Cream. My concern is that it could throw off the mixture balance. Have you tried adding it to any face cream bases and if so what were your findings? I'm checking Google now for more information.

    Argan Rain %100 Pure Argan Oil is a miracle product. Not only do I love it for my hair, but it makes my skin glow as well. Not only do I have dry skin, but I also am acne prone. This has kept my skin in check and my split ends non existent!!

  • @broyale7
    @broyale7 11 лет назад

    Does this Eco Styler Argan Oil gel have silicones? I am looking for a silicone free gel for my wash and go. I am currently using the IC Fantasia, which has a "water soluble" silicone, but I am not sure about that as my hair developed a film after using it for a month. I had to use baking soda to clarify and remove it.
    I love the shine from the IC, but I don't like the way my hair feels after several uses.

  • @NaturallyCe1209
    @NaturallyCe1209 11 лет назад

    great review. I have both in the same size. the Argon oil gel does nothing for mt hair, and I was so bummed! The Oilve oil is da bomb.com! It's amazing to see how different products work differently for every natural. I do have to agree on the smells, I'm not a fan of the olive oil smell!

    The best Eco styler is defo the Argan oil. I felt that the Olive oil took longer to dry. I also found that the Olive oil irritated my scalp slightly. TBF I do have a sensitive scalp, so I have to be careful what gels I use on my hair

  • @zulma0822
    @zulma0822 11 лет назад

    Ditto on the argan instead of the olive oil. I purchased the argan first, and fortunately the argan container is the bigger one. What the gel will do is prevent the glycerin in the CE smoothie from poofing so readily. YAY for the Eco with argan.
    Did you mention you used the Eco with the SM soufflé? Did you use a cream with it? Was there a ratio of the Eco to the soufflé? How did it feel? I've never considered that.

    • @NaturalMe4C
      @NaturalMe4C  11 лет назад

      Hey! I didn't use a specific ratio :D I just scrunched in a little of each after doing the LOC method I believe.
      This is the trim video where I used the gel and smoothie together:
