 Trini girl natural. Hi everyone, welcome to my channel. I just wanted to come on and talk about Eco Styler so I know that you have never seen me use Eco, well no you've never seen me use Eco Styler because I have never used Eco Styler. I don't use Eco Styler often for two reasons. One is that it has glycerin and for me glycerin stylers are only okay like in the spring and the fall with the moderate temperatures so that kind of narrows the window of when I can use it. Two, it doesn't really have the best ingredients. I mean the ingredients aren't horrible but they're not really nourishing for the hair. I like to nourish my hair. I'm kind of more about healthy hair than the look. And then the third reason possibly the most important reason, the crunch. I'm not a crunch cruncher. To me like you know your hair feels like bricks and then you crunch it and it feels like rubber or something but I like my hair to feel soft and touchable like there's nothing on it. And the fourth reason is that my hair is just really flat with Eco Styler like my curl is kind of like an S shape curl so if you wear it down it's just like a noodle like it's just kind of almost straight and like really flat. I like my hair to have a little more life and stuff so usually I film like on a day three um but for the Eco Styler I kind of have to wait an extra day and it's still on the flatter side to how it usually is but every now and again usually like maybe two to four times a year I guess for my be generous like two or three times a year. I just want to mix up my look. I was kind of getting that spring fever and I decided to do a Eco Styler wash and go to show you guys. So I'm going to show you the tips and tricks that I have, how to apply it, how to reduce the crunch a little bit, how to get it to dry a little faster, reducing any dryness, stuff like that. My Eco Styler gel wash and go using techniques. My Eco Styler gel using wash and go techniques. Something like that. Firstly moisture. You definitely want to start with a good leave-in. I definitely do LCO under Eco Styler just to combat the dryness or prevent the dryness. For my leave-in I use the Sultanical slip and slide not proof hair glide which is a great leave-in because it's not super duper heavy. I don't get flakes but I don't want to push my luck. So I want something that's not too heavy but still very moisturizing. So that's it. This is a great leave-in for that. It also makes a big difference for me for using Eco Styler is using this Camero's whipped butter gel or I would say any Camero's butter because the Camero products are very softening and they help to reduce the crunch from like a stiff gel. So moisturizing leave-in, Camero's butter or softening, moisturizing softening butter if there's any other one that you like. So you know that comes next because I do LCO and then finally I will use my oil mix and usually I just put my oil in my hands and I think I did pretty much just put my oil in my hands but to help to reduce crunch and reduce the chance of flakes I want to put oil everywhere. So basically you just kind of have to really suit up when you're using the Styler gel. At least I did because I'm not used to using it. So you got your LCO on you're ready to do the Eco Styler and my tips for that for people that live in water which is actually a really good idea but I'm just kind of lazy to do that. So I just kind of apply it regularly but very carefully like I just smooth and then it's like I'm tangling I just rig through the top and then go further down I'm not even trying to go all the way through my hair because it's so thick that it might cause tangles to do that and the slip of course isn't going to be curl maker slip or kinky furie slip. So between the two of those I rig very carefully when I'm raking and I kind of start at the top and kind of push even more and more almost like if my fingers would like to be tangling brushed instead of the usual comb I guess. After I put on my gel and everything the next thing you do is plump my hair to kind of get off some of the extra gel and help prevent the cast from being too hard. So I wrap my hair in a T-shirt like this you know and plump. That's kind of I guess you could say my final tip. So after that it kind of is what it is in terms of crunch result but I think if you do all of these you'll have a lot less crunch with your Eco Styler. So I talked about it let me show you now take a look at my demo of how I do my Eco Styler gel. This is my hair before anything and now I'm going to add my products. I'm starting off with my Sotanical slip and slide nut proof hair glide leave-in which I love along with many other leave-ins but I love it. This is the Camiros Naturals Allo with Butter Gel. I'm just going to add my little oil mix really freaking heavy. You can see it's just like totally flattening me out. What I do when I do Eco Styler is like I would pluck my hair to get the extra product off and kind of give back some volume otherwise it's just going to be flat. So when I'm doing Eco Styler gel I rake the gel rake in like I apply the gel rake it in carefully and then smooth. So I'm carefully raking it in because of course it's not going to have slip like if it's curl maker or something. It's going to have just regular Eco Styler slip. Yeah I do have some good slip from the products that I used before so at least I have that. It's just after the shave. I use my Eco Styler plump so about to plump. I'm not an expert plump because I don't do this super often so don't laugh at my plump and then you just kind of wrap it around like this. I leave each tissue in for half an hour I might swap out and put another t-shirt. It doesn't get fully dry but it just gets a little lighter a little bit dry. Okay so that was it. You saw how flat my hair was. It does really do a good job with definition. Like every curl is defined I would say that. Let me just come in so you can see it. Final result using all the tips that I mentioned and try it out if you have a real Polymer Crunch. I mean if you have a real real Polymer Crunch just abandon Eco Styler but you know if your Eco Styler Crunch is really bad and you want a way to kind of ease it up a little bit then try all these tips and let me know what you think. Let me know what you think about Eco Styler. If you live in Maryland let me know why you can find a flaxseed and cook not Eco Styler because I've been looking for them. Well I haven't been looking besides Sally's but you know I haven't been seeing them so yeah. If you live in the DC area let me know who I can find. Okay so that was it. I hope you have fun watching. Now you know what my hair looks like before Eco Styler. So see you in the next one. Bye.
