Maintaining a twistout or shingled hair for a WEEK

[Belle Du Jour]

How are folks able to keep a twist out or shingled hair for a week? According to the Curve website, the curly pudding can be "reactivated" during the week without having to do the whole (time consuming) shingling or kinky twist deep set process again. I'm assuming that it's about the amout or kind of product that you use (i.e. something with soft hold) in addition to stretching out the hair with a blast of heat.

I've been meaning to try the CP for a wihle, but hate to buy a huge jar of that stuff if it ain't gonna work. . .But gels don't seem to hold my twist outs either. . .Any ideas?

I personally don't like the curly pudding on dry hair. HTH
