I believe the answer is:

sloane

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'hooray henry?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'lose waves fixing a new gel' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'a' could be 'an' and 'an' is found in the answer.
an anagram of 'lose' is 'sloe' which is present in the left over letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
