As a veteran of years of a hair-product-dependent lifestyle, I've tried a lot of gel. And since my hair is violent and uncooperative, I ended up having to use the gloppiest, trashiest brand of gel, which is "Dep". And not just any Dep but the maximum strength that they make, which is "level 10".

But in the store the other day I discovered that Dep hair gel now goes up to 11. I'm not sure I'm ready for the "intense hold" offered by 11, but my last bottle of "level 10" is almost gone, so the issue will be forced before too long.
