Breaking the gel cast helps to achieve flawless, soft curls or waves, no matter the styler you’ve used. Some styling products have a strong hold and create a crunchy effect known as the “gel cast”. We’ve teamed up with Wavy Curly Ali to show you how to break the gel cast. For more information, read our expert guide: curlsmith.com/blogs/curl-acad...
Breaking the gel cast can be achieved using several methods, but you first need to do the Pinch Test to ensure your hair is 100% dry. Then you can try the following methods to determine how best to break the gel cast for your hair using our Intense Treatment Serum: curlsmith.com/products/curl-t...
For each of these methods, melt a little of the serum in your hands:
Praying Hands Method - Pull your hands down over your curls to coat the ends of your hair with product and break the gel cast.
Scrunching - Gather your hair in your hands and make a fist. This encourages your curl pattern while breaking the gel cast.
Clapping - Clap your hair between your hands to break the cast for a minimal disruption to your curl shape.
Fluffing - With remaining product on your hands, ruffle your fingers through your roots to boost volume and give a natural look.
Separating - Take a tiny bit of serum to break up curl clumps to create a natural look with more body while breaking the gel cast.
It’s important to know that crunchy curls aren’t bad, and your hairstyling techniques come down to personal preference.
