"What's the difference between hair gel and styling lotion?To clear things up for you, we consulted Daniel Garza, stylist and colorist at New York City's Robert Kree Salon. The explanation he gave us: Hair gels are usually alcohol-based and are best used to achieve styles that require medium to strong hold, like short, stiff spikes or tightly coiled hot-roller curls.
