How Would You Style Short Frizzy Thick Hair?

I would suggest a natural or 'Afro' to begin with, then as it grows out, perm it into a softer curl like a spiral, layering will tame the thickness a little and it will hold forever if you take care of it.

Us a frizz free syrum.  It is thick so you won't need a lot and a flat iron to straighten it.  Do it in small sections stating rom the bottom while the rest is in a hair tie only pulling out a little at a time.

It would depend on your face cut and how you carry it.but for me its a no.

If you want to use gel but first style it and while you are doing that then start to put a little bit in.

I use the Silk products along with a good flat Iron. It makes a world of difference for my Frizzy hair, but watch out when you go to the beach, get in the rain- or any moist environments. You may need something to 'hold' the shape, or just wear a hat like me. If you're swimming, definitely bring a nice hat or head wrap.
