I absolutely agree with the scent overload with curlsmith. I love their products, but there are days that I just can't handle smelling like a fruit salad. Great info. Thanks for the video
I only bought the hydrate & plump leave in (which I really like even though I don't think it does anything for volume except that it's lightweight & doesn't counteract the other products) & the mousse which I've only used once and I paired it with the shape up aqua gel for a bit more hold. I could literally see and feel my curls plump with the mousse, but I think I ruined it by putting gel on after the mousse. 🤷🏽♀️ I think the line smells great & I'm not bothered by strong fragrance as long as I like the fragrance. I need to try the mousse either after applying gel, or skipping the gel altogether. Your hair came out great!
Hi Chelle. I recently found your channel. Since going gray and going through menopause my hair has gone from fine and straight to frizzy, wavy, and sort of curly. I don't even know anymore. I'm attempted to learn to love my new natural texture and your channel has been so helpful. I was wondering if you could do a video on the subject of what happens to hair as we age, go through menopause, go gray, etc. I also went through a bout of medication induced alopecia a few years ago (I am also a migraine sufferer and tried Aimovig and Ajovy and they triggered hair loss) and still struggle with thinning on top even though I'm on all the meds to combat it (oral minoxidil, finasteride and spironolactone). The texture of the regrowth was also more frizzy than my past hair. Anyway, I'm a mess, lol. Sorry for the long post. Having straight hair my whole life and now having something totally different is a lot to wrap my head around. I love my hair stylist but she's young and I don't think she really knows much about curly hair.
I am just here to say I was missing you 😊❤ Hope you are doing well. I can’t do CurlSmith products cause I am allergic to them, but thank you for enduring those scents for other out there 🙌🏼
Thanks for the video. Your hair looks great on wash day. I am not a fan of light hold products. I get volume as my days progress. Would be interested in how you incorporate in shop your stash videos
The volume mousse seems super comparible to AG mousse-gel! I used to use mousse all the time but now prefer foams and custard or moisturizing gels. If i use a mousse i use the AG or the volume mousse by Amika because I like it has heat protection
My first time trying this line I used a light spray leave-in (from a different line), then Root Boost Spray, followed by the Mousse. I actually tried this a couple of times, varying the amounts, and it was way too stiff and heavy for my hair. Later, I tried brush styling only the mousse (which I don't normally do). It finally looked and felt a lot better. Great definition and shine, but no extra volume. I ended up returning the Root Boost Spray, bc I just couldn't stand the feel of it and it didn't give any volume. If anything it seemed to weigh my curls down (and yes, I went in with very little). I have fine hair, and I've heard other fine hair curlies state that it was too heavy for their curls. I personally think the Root Boost Spray is better for a person with more course hair.
I’d be curious for a comparison of the volume spray to the Rizos curls salt spray you’ve mentioned liking, as well as the volume mousse to the AG mousse/gel. Also, I’ve heard the volume lotion is basically the discontinued thickening lotion. Not sure if you tried it, but if so, does it seem the same overall? Thanks!
I was wondering the same. I still have most of the bottle of thickening lotion that I bought as I don't use a lot each wash day. I remember Chelle doing a thickening lotion video about a year or so ago. Search her channel.

Hope you are OK missing you and your wonderful reviews! ❤
I usually brush-style with the mousse. I like using the hairspray once my hair is dry to add hold.
Ok I tried this for the first time today and think the order makes a difference. I will try it in the order you have here next time.

@@mayrlabauer awww thank you. Everything is good. It’s been a really busy summer. I hope to be able to find time to get back to UA-cam soon!
I love it! I’ve been curious about Aveda’s new curly line too! I’m definitely getting this boubcecurl brush.

I'm going to try your combo. Love your new haircut. 😊

Love how your hair turned out!!!! Gorgeous! Did you get a hair cut?
Thank soooo much. I needed this video. Habe a beautiful day.
You’re welcome! Thank you for watching!

I am missing your great videos. I hope all is well with you.
Who cuts your hair? I am in dire need of someone willing to cut layers in my hair!
I do. I have an old video showing how I do it.
I hated this line it left my hair with a weird feeling even using the tiniest amount. It also smells so strong 🤮
