  I don't have any suggestions for you but I'm excited to know I'm not the only one with crazy curlier hairs that stick out randomly from their head :laughing9:

  I love the Curl Junkie Coffee Coco Curl Cream (w/ a light gel over it). The CJ Intense Protection leave-in is good, too. (But did they discontinue that one?) I did NOT like the CJ Guava and Protein Curl Creme at all, though. I've tried several CJ products and some are really good, really moisturizing and thick.
  
  I did not like Jessicurl stylers. None of them are cream-based or moisturizing IMO.
  
  Curls and Blended Beauty both offer products that are moisturizing...lots of people like them. Have you tried products from either of those lines? Might be something to consider if you like heavier products. (A couple of the Curls products aren't CG, though).
  
  There's been a lot of buzz about this SheaMoisture leave-in. I haven't tried it yet but I will be doing so w/in the next few weeks.

  I have never personally tried [buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/Kinky-Curly-Curling-Custard-p-778.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=kinkycurly-curling-custard]KCCC[/buylink], but I have heard that IC Fantasia Sparklite Gel is very similar. It is VERY heavy and leaves my curls looking nice, but it does have protien and I have a protien sensitivity so after time not good. But, if you don't have a protien sensitivity then I would try that one. Good thing to is it's like $5 for a giant tub and you can get it at Walgreen's! It's in the ethnic hair section.

  3B with some 3a. Fell off but am now back on the CG bandwagon and looking for my HG products.

  I'm going to check my container when I get home, but I think that I remember seeing that not only has the FIC been reformulated, but it now includes a cone which I don't remember it being there.

  Thick coarse 3c/4a prone to dryness.
  Staples
  Aphogee 2 Step treatment
  Generic Biolage Conditioning Balm
  Tigi MM Conditioner
  Creme of Nature Shampoo for dry hair
  KCCC
  Denman D3
  Giovanni Direct Leave-in
  SheaMoisture Leave-in

  I've tried the Fantasia Olive oil gel. It is very moisturizing (like the [buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/Kinky-Curly-Curling-Custard-p-778.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=kinkycurly-curling-custard]KCCC[/buylink]) but it leaves my hair feeling stiff and dry (unlike the [buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/Kinky-Curly-Curling-Custard-p-778.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=kinkycurly-curling-custard]KCCC[/buylink]). I'm sure it's because of the protein. And it does contain dimethicone, so it's not CG.
  
  I liked the way that it weighed down my hair, but didn't like the stiff, dry feeling, so I stopped using it and went back to using [buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/Kinky-Curly-Curling-Custard-p-778.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=kinkycurly-curling-custard]KCCC[/buylink].

  The clear Fantasia ic gel with sparkle lites is CG; the cone is water soluable. Not sure about other Fantasia ic gel products.
  
  But no, it's not that much like [buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/Kinky-Curly-Curling-Custard-p-778.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=kinkycurly-curling-custard]KCCC[/buylink] IMO. Although it might work applied on top of [buylink=http://www.curlmart.com/Kinky-Curly-Knot-Today-p-207.html?utm_source=naturallycurly.com&utm_medium=text-link&utm_content=curltalk-post-text&utm_campaign=kinkycurly-knot-today-leaveindetangler]KCKT[/buylink].
