What is you Holy Grail of hair gel?

in Hair Type 2
I am a 2 d to c and I am seeking the rock my socks off gel. I use [buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/Curly-Hair-Solutions-Curl-Keeper-p-28.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=curly-hair-solutions-curl-keeper]Curl Keeper[/buylink] and I really am pleased with the results. I have also tried [buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/Jessicurl-Rockin-Ringlets-Styling-Potion-p-100.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=jessicurl-rockin-ringlets]Rockin ringlets[/buylink] and CC, but I was a newbie then and wasn't coating my hair well enough to appreciate them (I think). My waves get sloppy and droopy & the gel seems to help to hold the curl.
2's out there....what is your gel of choice? Is it a mousse? Spray gel or other delivery?

I still use Aussie Texture gel - it is between the two - but I really liked having a hard hold and soft hold option. Sigh. I do use Aussie's Mousse sometimes as well, but not often.

DUH, oops!
Katina? Who's your twin? ME? I think your color is so pretty and I think you have more curl than I.

Edit: Duh, to answer the original question, I haven't ever been able to find just one product that does everything.
Another edit: I think I may have found my HG of gels (drum roll) it's Sebastian's Hi-Contrast...it's lovely, offers good hold, great curl formation, volume, no frizz and it's CG!
The hair concoction du jour was a winner.....Lo-poo and then I did a Kiehl's Olive Fruit Hair Pak for 20 minutes with a baggie and a hot towel over it. My hair was like butter! Keihl's Leave-in, lots of CK, and a couple of palmfuls of Garnier mousse, plop for 10 minutes and defused dry in 3 sections. Defusing makes better curls for me, no noodles!
I have RR & [buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/Jessicurl-Confident-Coils-Styling-Solution-p-116.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=jessicurl-confident-coils-styling-solution]CCSS[/buylink] on order already the small bottles to test drive again. Tomorrow I try my new Ana Banana shampoo, it's for kids, but I bought it for me....I'll be 50 next month. :cat:
