      Update: Ulta didn't have the AG Liquid Effects! I was surprised they had all their products out except that one. Also, I think you've had many starter kit videos but in the Ulta checkout line a wavy inexperienced gal wanted to see my shopping bag for recommendations. I told her I love Curlsmith and they usually have small sizes available. But I was thinking I should have more starter products in mind to give recommendations.

    @SBCinNC Місяць тому +2

    Gena, I am a mostly Curlsmith girl but trust your reviews so much I tried the Ouidad gel. NOW I get it! I have low porosity hair, so don't need proteins BUT, I LOVE it! When I take the time to properly apply on wash day, it left my hair with great hold, amazing frizz control and remarkable refresh results. When I tried the Innersense I Create Memory and must have overdone it too. I could not scrunch out the cast. So, I will lighten it up the next time! Thanks for teaching us SO much! I didn't have a clue how to care for my curls and I am now loving my thick, curly, course, low porosity curls thanks to you!

    Thanks so much for your gel breakdowns. I used to get by with light hold gels but somewhere along the way to perimenopause my hair became frizzier. I thought it was a damaged hair issue and protein’d the f$ck outta my hair with no results but the harder hold was the answer! My hair looks so much better. 😊

  • @juanitabridges6808
    @juanitabridges6808 Місяць тому

    My all-time favorite gel is the not your mother’s hard hold gel !!!! It is in my hair today and I use it every wash day! I personally like thick gels they give my hair hold and texture ( and this gel does of this for me!) As far as build up, the only time I noticed buildup is when I need to clarify, with this gel .

  • @snowflakes215
    @snowflakes215 Місяць тому +3

    Love what you said about the Curlsmith Frizz line! I LOVE CS but that line was too heavy for my fine hair even though I wanted to love it. I’m hoping for a strong hold gel in that line just to see if it could work and I would LOVE LOVE a strong gel in the new volume line which is amazing. Hoping Curlsmith reads your comments 😂😂

    • @GenaMarie

    Another great video! Did you notice that none of your recommendations come in a jar? You must hate jars as much as I do, ha! I'm still looking for the perfect gel that comes in a tube or a bottle and haven't found it yet. I love several of the gels you recommend, but usually have to apply a custard underneath and custards always come in jars...ugh. Although I haven't tried the Innersense I Create Curl Memory yet. I'll put that on my to-try list. Thanks!

    • @GenaMarie

    I have high porosity, low density, fairly thin hair. I find the lighter hold Ouidad gel often works very well on my hair; I also use some of the Ouidad stronger hold gel on the areas that frizz more. Might it help curlies who have hair like mine to know that the regular Ouidad gel might be a good option for them?

  • @franiricci2762
    @franiricci2762 Місяць тому +1

    Alway excellent and informative. Don’t know how you do it all!
    Could you possibly address finding the right person to cut your hair? I feel the cut is essential Hairdressers say they are curl experts but I never leave the salon happy. Always cant wait to do it again myself. Then it still takes 2 months to start looking good to me. I usually end up with a high top curly ponytail cause I am uncomfortable and self conscious of how it looks. A good day 2 is rarity for me as I garden and work out a lot.
    Thanks for all of your ideas.

    • @GenaMarie

    I cannot get any hold at all with Innersense! I have tried the gel and the foam with all different products and combos including ONLY Innersense line. I even talked to their customer service to trouble shoot and nothing seems to help it hold on my hair. I get pretty hair for a few hours and then it all falls. Only product I have tried that seems to consistently do this. Any suggestions? I spent a good chunk of $$ on these products and I would love to be able to use them.

  • @user-jm6hc3qb1n
    @user-jm6hc3qb1n Місяць тому

    I absolutely love the Ouidad gel! It, by far, gives me the longest results and I find pairing it with the Bounce Curl avocado curl cream gives me my favorite results. The only thing is I find my hair feels a little too soft after diffusing and almost looks wet, but by the next day, it looks okay. Do you think pairing it with a mousse or foam would help to get some grit perhaps? And, if so, should I put it in underneath the gel or on top of it before diffusing? Thanks as always, Gena! :) I think my hair is just finicky because the top portion is low porosity and then the second half of is high porosity.

    • @GenaMarie
      @GenaMarie  Місяць тому +1

      I would maybe use less cream or skip cream and try it with just the gel alone. And yes, adding a foam or mousse can provide more grit.

      Curl cream is fine to apply soaking wet but are you using a gel? If you apply a gel soaking wet it will not give enough hold and will just dilute the gel

  • @surrendertoflow78
    @surrendertoflow78 Місяць тому +2

    The BEST thing for frizz for me has been hemi-squalane oil! It’s a natural alternative to synthetics (silicone based and polyquats) that it turns out are not good for the environment when they wash down our drains. I was struggling with frizz because I was trying to avoid silicones and polyquats (the latter of which is in just about everything). I read about hemi-squalane and bought a small bottle with a dropper and now I just add 4-5 drops in my hand with my curl cream and even add a couple of drops with my gel too. I even put it in a spray bottle with water for refreshing my curls. (You just have to shake it well every time before spraying.) Basically turned everything I use into a frizz-control product. And, believe me, neither product was controlling my frizz before I added the hemi-squalane to it. The difference it made to my hair is astounding. It’s so easy! I don’t know why more people aren’t talking about/using/recommending it. If I was a UA-camr I’d do a video on it 😂
    (Also, it washes out of the hair easily so no risk of build up)

      Glad you found something that works for you! Oils don't ever work for me though, so I stopped buying them!!

      @@monikasebren1811i keep trying to reply, but it keeps disappearing…I think because I tried to put an Amzn link to the one I bought. I don’t know that any brand is better than any other. It’s just 100% hemi-squalane oil (not to be confused with squalane…that “hemi” is crucial!)

      @@katgirlblueoh I should’ve added I can’t use any other oil in my hair. My hair is so fine it’s basically like feathers 😝 So I wouldn’t even be able to put a couple of drops of other hair oil on my hands to scrunch out the crunch. I’d just have a stringy, greasy mess. But the hemi-squalane is extremely light. It’s a dry oil with a very light molecular weight. It’s the only “oil” I can use and it has made so much difference for me! Now I do have to say I haven’t tried putting it directly on my hair undiluted, I just add a few drops to my curl cream and also to my gel in my hand and when I spritz my hair for a refresh I’m using maybe 10 drops in a halfway filled water spray bottle (I don’t spray that much on my head at once though, that’s just how much I mix up at a time…and you have to shake it well just before spraying.). But I have tried putting it undiluted on my skin and it basically just absorbs instantly. At any rate, it’s helped my products become more anti-frizz without me having to use silicone- or polyquats-based ingredients. Better for the environment, better for hair, and it doesn’t give me that producty feel that all the polyquats do too. I keep trying to tell people about it and get someone to do a video on it but nobody does 😛 maybe because there’s no branding to talk about

      @@surrendertoflow78 what do you mean, no branding? If there's no brand, who makes it and how do you buy it? Anyway, I can't use a curl cream either because that's also way too heavy for my hair and just sits on top. My hair is low porosity, I guess that's why. I just spray a leave in, and then use gel. Using oil to scrunch out the crunch is not effective for anyone because oil is only to be used on the very ends when it has completely dried, to prevent moisture loss through the ends. I have a very light oil for that purpose, but even that makes my hair frizzy and greasy - just a couple of light drops on the ends - so that's another wasted product on my Reject shelf!

      Are you washing your hair every day? That is not the best for it. There is nothing wrong with using gel every wash day. It's not a damaging product and most are moisturizing. I wash and style 2x per week
