Kinky Curly Curling Custard vs. Eco Styler Gel

I've recently ran into a young lady that recommended using Eco Styler Gel for my twist outs and bantu knots, she stated that I would have better hold. Of course, I ran out that day to my local beauty supply store [which is beginning to stock more and more natural products!!!] to buy some! The very first thing I noticed was the price, $1.99 for a 16 oz jar!!! MAJOR difference seeing how KCCC is $17 plus shipping and handling for an 8 oz jar. *though price shouldn't be the main factor on maintaining healthy hair, it does make a difference* After returning home, I quickly co-washed my hair [I'm always eager when I get new products lol], applied my leave-in conditioner [a mixture of raw shea butter, olive oil, tea tree oil, conditioner and distilled water], distributed the Eco Styler throughout my hair, (I also use the same method with KCCC) and styled my hair in bantu knots (which I let air dry). I noticed my hair was WAY more voluminous and manageable! KCCC always leaves me with a crunchy feeling and Eco Styler left my hair so soft! I must say I love both products but I'd much rather use Eco Styler because of the price and the fact that it's a great 'wash and go' product!

Any other ways you use Eco Styler Gel or KCCC?!
