Hair gel became such a trend in the 90’s, and early 2000’s that people developed a slight aversion to it. This should come as no surprise as the products back in that day were not only overused, but they were also brimming with chemicals and allergens.

Almost two decades later hair gel is becoming popular again. But, it looks nothing like it used to. Gone are the potent smells as they have been replaced with natural aromas that exude from natural ingredients. The formulas have also been updated meaning that a small drop will do, and entire handfuls of the gel are no longer required.
