Two questions. Will using hair gel cause your hair to fall out at a later time like when your older? I've noticed that a few strands of hair have been coming off. I'm fifteen if that helps. And second what hair gel brand is the best for making hair stay stand up straight and spikey for like almost the whole day? I'm looking for hair gel that can do that so I can make my hairspikey and what store(s) might I find them at? I live near CVS, Shaws, and Walgreens and wondering if anyone knows if there's a chance I might find them there.

Hair gel contains a lot of alcohol that causes the hair to become dry and brittle. What you may be noticing is not hair falling out, but breaking off. Washing it out and going a time without using gel, and using a moisturizing conditioner or hot oil treatment should get your hair healthy again.
As far as the best product to use for making spikey hair stand straight up... I can only tell you what my research has shown as I do not have spikey hair. I did, however, find a website that might be helpful. Feel free to check it out. It might help you for future styles as well. Good luck. The link is pasted below.
