    I have learnt that just because something never worked last Christmas, it doesn't mean you shouldn't try it again now. That was my relationship with glycerine. It worked in my 20s. But I wasn't consistent and I O think a lot of products contained it anyway. Then in my 30/40s it didn't work at all. Now at 55 I am a serial DIYer. And one of my concoctions uses glycerin to mix with the xanthan gum. So one day I had an accident and used WAY too much glycerin. And my hair looked and felt awesome. So I have added a significant amount more glycerin to my regimen. What I do to test my regimen is a shampoo, no conditioner and air dry. If my hair is soft and has a bit of a shine, is easy to detangle, then I am doing the right thing. (Tangles were never much of an issue for me aynyeay. ) And I AM doing the right thing . My hair was soft, my curl was as good as it gets and an amazing shine even without prepooing or conditioning. I dampened my hair afterward and conditioned purely because I believe in conditioning. My didn't look and feel as if I needed to though. So its glycerin for me for the foreseeable future, not just for my hair but for skin as well. Thanks so much for you awesomely content.

      Yes you can! You can certainly use with or UNDER curl definer. Now if you use it ONLY to two strand twist your hair with no styling cream, then you won't have much of a hold. But again, you can use it under any styling product when you want hold.

      It's a hair softener, so I would imagine that putting it on locs could possibly cause it to be frizzy or even start to unravel the locs

    • @KarenofCurlHouse
      @KarenofCurlHouse  4 роки тому +1

      It depends on what type of locs and the maturity of your locks. New locs - no. For mature locs, very low concentrations -- similar to comment below -- too much may cause frizzing.
