Mixed female, hair strands super microscopic, hard to find leave-in that defines and doesnt weigh hair down or leave hair frizzy. Mousse or gel not working to keep ringlets.
I'm growing out my natural texture (first 4" - 5") which is hard to form ringlets vs the middle and bottom half of head that was formerly relaxed/texturized and easier to define.
As you can see it pretty much looks the same with product and without (the new growth won't become defined no matter what I do.) The product I use is Wen leave-in and oils by Chaz Dean. When I use mousse or gel it looks crunchy so I try to scrunge it to break the seal but then it gets the same frizz like I have no product at all (looking like the first picture after an hour of styling 😤).
NOTE: my strands are super microscopic - in the first photo you can see a skimpy strand against my forehead if you look REALLY close cause, individually, they're kinda hard to see. 🔍🧐
