My curls are more defined in certain places & more frizzy in others. It has always been that way though whether natural, relaxed or in between. I thought it had to do with my 4a/3c mix, but who knows? Anyway, for max definition my conditioners are key such as:
Conditioners: nexxus humec, a/organics, natures gate, freeman botanicals cherry humectant conditioner, suaves, pantene s&s or herbal essences
Mousse: herbal essences
Sprays: a.organics conditioner sprays, s-curl (great for moisture w/o disturbing curls cuz my hair hates anything oily)
Gels: long aid aloe vera curl activator gel, 100% aloe vera gel
Some of these products will work on my ahir while dry. When applying while wet, I find it comes out better when leaving a towel wrapped around my head for about 1/2 an hour. I can't stand to drip & wrapping helps keep moisture locked in. After that I unwrap the towel, let it continue to airdry or airdry in front of a fan or with windows rolled down when in the car(my fav technique) & whalla! Definition!
