Default going to Kauai, which gel should I take??

When I'm in Hawaii, my hair likes the humidity but it can get a bit frizzy. I don't plan on drying it while there. I just let it air dry. But I would like to put a bit of styling product in it. But I don't know which stuff to take since I live in a DRY climate.
I have TT, Arc Angell, Angell, and my current one Prof. Salon stuff. I also have LOOB but that gave me frizz here at home.

Hi! I live in HI and the absolute best product I've found for frizz is BRHG. I like to experiment with different products, but I always end up coming back to this gel- especially if I want my hair to look good all day. hth

Biosilk Rock Hard Gelee. I think it has silk protein in it, but they just changed the formula so I'm not sure of the new ingredients.

ETA: I've seen it sold at trade secrets, supercuts, and a lot of other salons/beauty supply stores.

Here in East Coast summer humidity, I get my best results with Herbal Essences Set Me Up.

I don't know about gels, but you're definitely welcome to take me! I wouldn't recommend BRHG if you're protein sensitive. The new formulation moved the protein up a lot higher. One of the new Herbal Essences gels (Set me up or Body envy) might be good.

I don't think TT would have enough hold, I would choose SMU of the two.

I haven't been to Hawaii, but I did use Ouidad Climate Control in Key West and got decent hair days. The humidty there was vicious!!
I also agree with Clarita. I think that you would do very well with BRHG, I used the old one, not sure about the new one.
