Gena, last night I binged a ton of your videos, after buying some products to help my hair. I'm 52, and had just accepted that my hair would be a frizzy mess. Been squeezing, towel drying and excessively crunching my curls all my life. After watching your videos, I had hope. Today, I washed and conditioned (still waiting on the clarifying shampoo) used Carol's DaughterCoil Enhancing Moisture Butter, Not Your Mother's Curl Talk cream and then gel, microplopped, twisting curls into the frizzy parts, and then diffused. My hair looked 1000x better just from doing this once. My hair color is kind of different, I'm graying in the back first. (Curls are everything from 2c to 3c). So my hair is dark in front, and nearly white in back. I can't wait until it's fully restored, its going to be look awesome! Thank you so much for these videos, I just didn't know that I had to actually spend time with curly hair and use more than one product if I wanted it to look good.
I apologize for all the grammar errors, my typing leaves a lot to be desired.
@@chiquie3989your post was encouraging! How is it going for you? Are you still using the same products?
Thanks so much Gena! I love your videos! They are so helpful! I’m excited to use Curl Talk Bonding on my highlight damage that’s growing out!
Thank you so much for all of this hard work!! It has been so helpful to me!😊 Also, thank you for teaching about styling hair while it is still wet/damp--I never knew to do that, and have been styling *after* it is dry. It is no wonder, it has been working against me all this time! I'm (((still))) working to get clumpier and less crunchy AND with long lasting hold. So thank you for sharing all of this information! You are saving me from throwing in the (hair repear) towel and settling on 'good enough' products... LOL
I also love cantu's cream gel and finishing it off with wetline's xtreme gel (mixed with water for distribution). Lots of hold, moisture, protection and without residu or hard crunch.
Definitely interested in trying that Twisted line.
These videos are so helpful, and I’ve found drugstore products that work for me based on them. One thing that would be a great added feature is how strong the fragrance is on the list of ingredients. I know it’s all subjective. A few of the Twist products have fragrance pretty high up on the list which IMO is strong. I ended up returning to Amazon, but will try other Twist products to see if the fragrance is still strong. Thanks!
I really love Not Your Mother's curl cream alongside their gel and mousse. I think it holds even better than their gel tbh. It's my favorite product in their line.
Do you mean you love mixing it all three than just the gel?
Hi, Gemma. You haven't aged a day!!!! Beautiful. ❤ Hope your good. Thank you for sharing. Always so informative. ❤
I like the Shea Moisture manuka honey and mafura oil mask. Currently using Cake curl cream
I like curls blueberry for a like curl cream. I like uncle funky’s daughter curl activator as a light gel, but mostly use it as a refresh mostly. I like Mielle babassu deep conditioner. I get a good cast from Giovani gel.
Hello, I use the Kairly Paris brand "naturallong" as a gel, it gives definition and protection to your curls. Thank you for sharing
😄😄😄
Your site is very informative.
Can you review curly foams/mousses with light, medium and strong holds for Curl types 2, 3 and 4's also?
Love your videos ❤
I definitely think you should try the Camille Rose Curl Maker if you haven't already!😉👏🏻
I also think another that is worth trying I haven't seen on your channel is the Biosilk Rock Hard Gelee!🤓
Giovanni direct leave in is great for a weightless option. I get more volume when I use it versus others
My daughter uses inexpensive gel & gets quick, beautiful results. Keeps it simple. I also have curly hair, but get it professionally blown out every month. I brush it with a wide tooth brush. It grew to my waist with no damage, limiting washing. Use dry shampoo in between. Too many products, messing with it & over washing causes damage
Would love to know your thoughts on Camille Rose products ☺️
I love Harry's hard hold gel.
My favorite drugstore brand has been the Cake Curl line so far. It seems to bring out my curls a little better. I have the Twist gel. It's really good too! I'm interested in trying the Curl Talk Bond Building and Umberto Giannini Curl Jelly Shampoo and Conditioner. Thanks for the recommendations!
Yeah I love Cake too!
@@GenaMariehave you ever tried the Cake dry refresher?
It’s a cream that’s supposed to mist but the sprayer gets clogged. I have no idea how I’m supposed to use it.
the not your mothers hard hold gel is my holy grail gel!! i love it so much, providing fantastic hold and protein. i love a good hard hold gel. i do find that it is too drying for me to use often in cold weather. that’s where harry’s sculpting gel comes in!! this is another drugstore hard hold gel. these two are similar in consistency but the harry’s gel also holds in moisture SO well. i find it’s too moisturing for the warmer months, but this is my holy grail winter gel
also, the harry’s gel is usually found in the men’s section. that being said, it does have a stronger scent reminding me of cologne, but personally i love the scent. i know strong scents aren’t good for everyone though, so i wanted to mention that
A really good curl cream it's a bit thick but I really love it us the Shea Moisture Intensive Hydration Leave in milk wuth the Manuka Honey and Marufa Oil it's definitely use it sparingly if you have finer lower density hair i have fine strands yet I have medium to high density hair so I can use thicker and more heavy products since my hair tends to love thicker and super hydrating products
Hi could you touch on what shampoo and how often to wash if in chlorinated pool at least 3x a week please (and conditioning) I feel like,I could be overwashing so someday I just rinse with water as I know I'm back in pool the next day..thanks
We see a lot of clarifiers that rid the hair of oil and product residue. I'd like to find one that clarifies hard water residue from hair without damaging it. I have to regularly descale shower walls, take pumice to the hard water stains in toilets, descale shower heads, etc. I've no doubt it builds up on my hair too, it's not like I can take a loofah to my hair like I can to my skin.
FYI-Bio Ionic is having a sitewide 30% off sale today only- 10/19. I got the Goldpro Speed Dryer and the diffuser for a total of $115, with free shipping! It would have been $165 normally.
Noughty and Kristin Ess have some more lightweight styling products that could work well, depending on hair needs!
which one of these products are good with low porosity hair ?
I saw that NYM has a Curl Talk foam, which is apparently for refreshing. It has some protein in it. Have you tried this?
What do you think about brand Noughty their jelly pr their conditioner ?
Great video! I am a fan of NYM bond building shampoo and conditioner, mousse, and hard hold gel!
I am still in search of a “favorite” gel but will say I like Curlsmith’s In Shower Style Fixer. My next products to try are 4U line and also Umberto Gianinni’s, especially Banana Butter - they will be bday splurges!
Thank you for the discount codes and product sorter.❤️
So, I have a suggestion for a halloween video sort of. There is this moisturizing hair treatment stuff at Sally beauty that has placenta in it. Can you review if for us?
As I Am's Curling Jelly -- after years of fighting with gunky product or dealing with massive buildup, As I Am dries with soft bouncy curls.
Great video. Love the Not Your Mother's Mousse and recently purchased the NYM Whipped Cream. Did you say in the video you used them together? What order did you apply them?
Yes! I would use the whipped cream first then the mousse so that way the strongest hold is on top.
Art Naturals Argan Oil Curl defining cream is also so good so is they're entire arrangement Oil line I highly recommend it also ogx air dry cream creams are good especially their coconut and there argan oil lines
I haven’t found a strong hold gel better than LA Looks Sport Xtreme Hold Gel at any price point. I use it on day one over a curl cream, and then use the Twist gel, watered down, for day two and three refreshes.
I used to use that when I was a kid! Is it drying?
That is exactly the same thing I use (the LA looks sport xtreme hold gel). I find it’s the only gel that will hold my curls the way I love. The blue has never dried my hair. Plus it is alcohol free.
I used to love the yellow one. Loved the smell but you cant find it anymore and the blue one is drying
I can't find this brand in stores anymore. My husband and I were looking for it a few months ago.
I get it on Amazon. I don’t find it to be drying on my hair.
Thank you-NYM Curl Talk hard hold is no joke-holds well, dries fast. SheaMoisture brand is great ❤
i have thin low porosity curls (M), last year my curls were fuller and also had a lot more, I shaved my head, I'm growing them back now, I have so many bald spots on the crown area of my head, I'm using shea moisture, I'm legit about to cry I don't know what to do , pleas help me, I'm looking at old pics and the same timespan I started growing my hair, last year I had a lot more than I have now with the same time of growing, I'm lost , pleas help me
Most of these are brands unknown to me. Sadly. I do get a lot of my off brand stuff from Lidl & Aldi (500ml of shampoo for 79 eurocents, no kidding, and it's *good stuff* as well).
I can never find anything to fix my frizz at the top of my hair / all around till midway on my head….. it’s so bad right now I’m beginning to think it’s the water in my house I just keep my hair up all the time now plus bring new time mom 5months pp.. I really wish I could find products to fix my frizz to hold my curls my scalp is dry as well
none of these options are available to me on amazon :(. I'm in Canada so even Ulta doesn't ship here :(
Can you recommend a good hairspray or finishing spray at drugstore prices that doesn't dry out your hair? I used to like a Marc Anthony one, but they must have discontinued it because I can't find it anymore.
I bought a can of Eva NYC hairspray. Their prices are kinda halfway between drugstore and salon. They aren’t as cheap as Aussie but they won’t set you back like Redken.
I have such fine hair that every time I use a curl cream (and I use maybe a pea sized amount) AND a gel, my hair falls flat in an hour, no matter how strong the hold. I'd love to try the NYM stronger hold one, as I have the other lighter wait gel, and it does ok but again, everything falls flat by the end of the day.
I hear you! My hair is not only fine, but low density as well. So curl creams are mostly off the table for me. I do use a tiny amount of Design Me Bounce Me Curl Balm which gives my hair some slip and softness. When I say tiny amount I mean just a trace on one fingertip. I then mix with water to help it distribute better.
Leave-ins would be a better fit for you in that case as they are more lightweight.
@@Halo2glitchlover22 that just over moisturizes my hair. I've started using a leave in as a wash out conditioner and that's worked really well. And hairspray (the Bounce Curl one) on damp hair. That's helped a lot!:
I love Miss Jessie's pillow soft curls 💗
Hii, what do you think of redken acidic bonding shampoo and conditioner?
I’ve never tried it!
Which curl cream works good with Ouidad climate c ontrol gel, red bottle?
The Ouidad Moisture Lock Leave-In, Bounce Curl Clump & Define Cream, or AG Re:coil are some of my favs to pair with it
What was the discontinued gel you mentioned at 10:06? Dove gel?
This one: rstyle.me/+9ODw3eOBe66-shnqWLLiOg
it's marked up since it has been discontinued and there's limited stock
I have to wash my hair in the daily. The plant I work at leaves my hair smelling like a motor 🥴 any product you recommend for daily use? Without coconut oil it tends to dry my hair out. Thanks 😊
Also I have to wear a ball cap 5-6 days a week
What other Ouidad products would you recommend for coarse hair besides the climate control gel (which I have used).
This is another option: amzn.to/3vssxn3
What leave in has the most moisture and the least amount of protein thank you
One of the best I’ve been using for years is the Kinky Curly Knot Today Leave-In. It’s protein-free and very moisturizing.
My curls are ultra fine..should I use a leave in??
You can and should if your hair feels dry and/or frizzy without any product it it. Just don’t use too much.
I used to love the Marc Anthony products but they changed the formula of the entire line.
Twist doesn't seem to be available in Canada....
It is at Walmart !
I miss the Dove Gel. I had to use a lot of it, but it was so cheap I didn't care. .
Can you give an example of a "real" protein? Not the amino acid version
Hydrolyzed wheat protein
Uncle Funky’s Daughter makes good products I can usually find at CVS
I don’t think they make a gel though-
They do make a gel, it’s called Curly Magic.
