Does using hair gels very often not good for hair? Why?
Using hair gels will only lead to hair-loss if you apply it very roughly and remove hair in the process. There is nothing harmful in hair gel; it simply coats the outside of the strand. The difference between waxes, creams, and gels is simply in the finished look; a wax will provide a more solid, shiny look; a cream will provide a softer hold; a gel will provide a more piece-y, stronger hold.
