Evenly apply the gel to the hair.</p> <figure><a class="images-link" data-lightbox="gallery" href="https://abbigli.ru/thumbs/mEuoif_m3zInRxnC9fF7yEZDkw4=/2707c5b7a4c84daca5114aadaddc68bd"><img src="https://abbigli.ru/thumbs/unsafe/fit-in/1000x0/https://abbigli.ru/thumbs/mEuoif_m3zInRxnC9fF7yEZDkw4=/2707c5b7a4c84daca5114aadaddc68bd" data-image="28568"></a></figure> <p>2. Use more product than usual. The hair should be completely saturated and slimy. If you use too little gel, the product will be ineffective.</p> <figure><a class="images-link" data-lightbox="gallery" href="https://abbigli.ru/thumbs/mMt-jtWPMS7KIHKJo9k-xjazJDc=/24091bf536284ae3919a3fbb86077173"><img src="https://abbigli.ru/thumbs/unsafe/fit-in/1000x0/https://abbigli.ru/thumbs/mMt-jtWPMS7KIHKJo9k-xjazJDc=/24091bf536284ae3919a3fbb86077173" data-image="28569"></a></figure> <p>3. Wait until the hair is completely dry. Do not touch them, but you can use a diffuser hair dryer nozzle. When hair is dry, they will be soft, with curls, but not crunchy or sticky. If you feel stiffness, fluff up the hair a little with your hands.</p> <figure><a class="images-link" data-lightbox="gallery" href="https://abbigli.ru/thumbs/hxda3FZ-So0cxJ_aSJZ0JBXalLc=/9f3f16c7429340d1a7f196df351b2902"><img src="https://abbigli.ru/thumbs/unsafe/fit-in/1000x0/https://abbigli.ru/thumbs/hxda3FZ-So0cxJ_aSJZ0JBXalLc=/9f3f16c7429340d1a7f196df351b2902" data-image="28570"></a></figure>
