Hey Ladies,
I have a question. . . I was reading somewhere about using Aloe Vera Gel, and I bought some |but it wasn't pure, so now I have to send it back Sad

| but I don't remember its purpose. Do any of you use aloe vera gel? And if so what for? And on wet or dry hair?

Thanks

I mix about 25% aloe to 75% glycerin and use it for my leave-in on wet hair under whatever styler I'm using. The only time I don't use this leave-in is when I'm doing twists...and I'm not really a twist girl so that is rare...

I have use aloe to mix with other things as well. Here is a good video on aloe...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afk20Y88dgs

I have a question: Is there an oil that provides protein for you hair to mix with coconut oil?
