| trenta200's Full Review: Got2b Glued Spiking Gel |
I've used this gel for quite some time and I love it. My hair is about two inches long and I use this gel primarily for spiking. I would have some reservations using this on very long hair, since I don't think it's strong to hold hair longer than six inches.
Great Hold:
This gel offers an extremely strong hold, stronger than any gel I've used before. Once you put it on and let it dry, it will stay in place even in heavy wind and slight rain. If you walk in heavy rain, however, then the gel will start to run, but I think that's the norm and expected.
Lasts Forever:
The longest that I've ever kept this gel in my hair was thirty hours, and it stayed in place the entire time. I was outside with heavy wind and slight rain, as well as inside a humid building. When I got home to wash it out, my hair looked like it did when I left, which is quite a feat because I have very stubborn hair.
Hard to wash out:
This gel is extremely strong, which means that it will be hard to wash out, but I didn't expect it to be this annoying. It's simple enough to get about eighty percent of the gel out, since that can be done by just rinsing your hair, but the other twenty percent are a pain. I had to thoroughly shampoo my hair twice in order to remove it all, and I was having doubts afterward any way.
The Smell:
I personally don't like the smell, which reminds me of candy that's just too sweet, although I think that it's better than some of the other things on the market now. The smell goes away after about ten minutes, but will come back if your hair gets wet, or the gel starts running for any reason. I usually just take a tiny amount of cologne and mix it into the gel to make it smell better.
