The gel damages your hair. It weighs it down and the chemicals in it damage your hair follicles. Try not using as much or none at all. If your having to use to achieve the style you like, you could ask a hair stylist if there is a way to get the style you like w/o damaging your hair that bad.

Gel can damage it. Pretty much stay away from gel with alcohol it'll dry your hair out. Never comb hair with gel in it while its dry because it can cause it to break off since gel bonds hairs together. Wet your brush or slightly dampen your hair before combing or brushing it
