Eco Styler Olive Oil Gel

I've seen so many great reviews for this gel by people with many hair types, so I decided to give it a try. The first time i tried it i put shingled it on top of my Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine Leave in conditioner, which i love. The results equals semi-wavy hair, not at all like the 3c-4a I'm used to seeing. The second time I tried it, I decided to skip the leave in and and seal my hair with olive oil. I wasn't pleased by these results either, I had clumps of straight hair. The third time I tried this gel I used Africa's Best Leave in Liquid Hair Mayonnaise. The results were the same as the first. My verdict for this product is....Maybe it's just too heavy for my hair. Fail!
