I don't care for CJ CQ in low dews - too much protein, I suspect - but I was surprised how well it worked in high dews.

Next time, I want to try this combo without the BRHG (since I just used a dab anyway), and see how my hair holds up. The added aloe fix gel to seal might suffice for the extra hold I need.

I'd also like to try this again with regular CCCC instead of CCCC lite, and see if there's a difference.

Anyone else using (and liking) CJ CQ in high dews? If so, how are you using it?

I have had good luck using CJ CQ this past summer (there have been days I've had experiments go badly and the only thing that saved my hair was Curl Queen). I use a good bit of it (probably 2-3 small palmfuls) and scrunch that throughout my hair. I then scrunch a 50:50 mix of AIF+BRHG and diffuse.
