Quick poll - on hair products. Which is better (or is the difference so minimal it doesn't matter)

[ChopOrNot]

After a thread I had yesterday I am beginning to question my decades use of hair products.

Please will you look at the 2 photos and tell me if you can see a difference and/or which looks better?

(FWIW I can see a difference - and negative about both but am beginning to think it is just because we are hyper-critical of ourselves and notice crap that no-one else sees.)

Thank you.

Minimal difference but photo 2

I can't see any difference 😟
Sorry!

[ChopOrNot]

Don't apologise! You could be helping me save £££ and hours of my life back faffing around with hair gunk!

Will continue with said gunk if it makes a difference - but if it is only a minimal difference (or even a negative one) then quite happily shower, blot dry and go!

Photo 2 is better, sort of softer.
Your hair is gorgeous by the way.

Photo 2 looks very slightly better because due to less frizz, but maybe I'm seeing frizz because it's more of a close up? Both look lovely, ditch the gunk!

[WowOoo]

I can't see a difference at all. Your hair is lovely in both.

Thank you all.

It appears very little difference. So seeing as the product can weigh down/drag out the curls maybe I should ditch it.

For Info
Pic 1 has some light curl gunk on it - so curls have a bit more shine/definition (to me) though could be seen as being a bit "greasy/crunchy curl"
Pic 2 totally naked - and I can see a halo of frizz around it/less defined curls - but it is a bit fuller.

all

Ah - i was going say i prefer pic 1 because the curls are more defined and in no. 2 it looks a little more frizzy! So i see it OP.
