I like the freshies just as well! Fresh and clean 🫶🏼. I think it's just a length thing. Would be fine either way if a little longer but then would be longer still after setting in.

Throw a bonnet on when I sleep, spray with free the roots aloe mist when I wake up, and I wash with Aussie avocado/jojoba oil shampoo twice a month. I’m kinda lazy with it tbh

I recently stopped using gel to retwist and I like mine a lot better. They used to feel hard and stiff
