What works better to hold curls hairspray or gel?

hairspray works best..gel is heavier, and if you put to much on, you risk losing you curls.

find a nice, strong hairspray, and stick with that, gel is just to heavy!

i recommend the Aussie hairspray, not only does it come in different strengths, but it smells nice to! (smell is some type of flower)(bottle is purple/white, with a kangaroo on it)

hope this works!

I suggest that you use hairspray better because gel will flatten ur curls when you apply it

Don't use gel. Spray your hair with something like a curl activator (I use a Redken spray...I think it's called Curls Up?) first, then before I curl each section, I spray it with hairspray, comb thru it, then curl it. When you've finished curling all your hair, give it a light spray of hairspray and then style it.
