This is a TREMENDOUS assortment of products, all at affordable prices. I'm not an expert at using these, so maybe I'll buy some and keep working at it.

I hate pretty much the entire Herbal Essences curly line. It just makes my dry hair even drier.

That Biolage gelee works really well. I prefer mousse but will occasionally use gel depending on the look I'm going for.

Curly hair girls use all types of gels. I try use products without silicones and sulfates. That is what this article is missing. Actually I think that is what needs to be added to all of the products "an ingredients list". For all the products I have to do a search online for the ingredients which is time consuming. Since I started avoiding products with these ingredients my hair has transformed to more manageable and healthier.

I think the hair that would benefit the most from a hair gel, is a short spikey cut or maybe even a pixie. I have shoulder length fine and thin hair and gel doesn't give me the soft, touchable feel compared to say - mousse. I admit, I do use a spray gel, but only at the roots to give my hair more volume. I've tried a gel recently, I think it's called SAMY curling gel. It's supposed to give you "great curls". Only it doesn't. It didn't do anything for my hair. I have a natural wave so I can wear it curly or straight. But even for the curls, I prefer to use a mousse for body and hold.

Don't really use hair gels, but this article was still helpful!
