    I know you had a bad experience with gel, but i use ic fantasia gel and it works wonders on my hair. it gives it shine and makes it softer. Maybe it will work for you and your daughter too. You should try it. I also use sunsilk captivating curls leave in creme. It has aloe in it and i feel like this product hydrates my hair.
