Your hair is so beautiful!! thanks for the information! very helpful!
Thank you so much!! perfect timing again! Love it
You’re welcome! I’m glad I’m a mind reader! 😂 Thank you for watching!
Once again you have come through with another extremely informative video! Thank you for all your hard work and information!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it! Sorry it’s taking me longer than normal to reply, I’m starting to get enough comments that some slip by me. Thank you for watching!
Great video❤
Love the CS foam! It makes my curls so shiny & bouncy! My hair seems to love rice protein! I actually try to keep it away from my roots because it makes my scalp really itchy. Like crazy itchy. It definitely works very well for me all over my hair 💜
I know you like that one! It’s perfect for your fine hair! Too bad about the itchy though.
I love you videos!!!
Thank you!
I have used Joiwhip almost as long as you but I have kind of turned my back on mousse since I started using cream/gel combos with an occasional foam thrown in. I am going to dust of the AG and Joico and see what happens! Thanks for the video!
Looove the joico! I stopped using mousse and foam for a while too and I’m glad I found my way back! Thank you for watching!
Thanks for the video Michelle. I generally like foams over mousses. I have Cake Curl Whip which is ok. I like the AG Mousse Gel. For foams I like All About Curls Boosting Foam over a gel. Interested in trying Manes by Mel’s new foaming gel. Have you tried it yet? You have other items from the Verb curl line.
I just tried the verb foam! I really liked it! Great definition & shine! I did layer it with a small amount of gel that I know exactly how it performs did that I could still evaluate the foam while getting a bit more hold. I brushed it thru like Mell did, but next time I'm not going to do that & see what that's like. OMG is it GREAT for dry refreshes! I only ever refresh dry, no water, & a lot of times foams work the best for that (for me). Some better than others. This is possibly the best one I've ever used as a curl by curl dry refresh. I hit it with the diffuser for just a few minutes to set the cast in & dry the water content from the foam and WOW, my curls looked better than they did on days 1 & 2!
You’re welcome! I didn’t get along with the Cake curl whip. Wish I did though, it looked so good on others! I haven’t tried the all about curls yet. I definitely plan on trying Verb x Manes by Mel foaming gel! Thank you for watching!
I had an issue with that Alterna mousse. It weighed me down like the cake mousse does but it also made my hair feel weird. I can't remember for sure, but I think it felt almost oily maybe? Whatever it was I know it was a distinctly weird feeling that my hair almost never gets. But Someone actually gave it to me for free, so no harm, no foul!
I remember you saying that. It’s why I mentioned it in the video. With as light weight as it is in general I probably wouldn’t have realized it could be an issue for finer hair. Free is awesome!
I did not know that Moroccanoil made a volume mousse. I'm always looking for either flaxseed gel, mouse, or foam. I feel that it works best for my fine hair.
Oh yes, and it’s a good one! I really like flaxseed gels. I would agree that they work well for fine hair. Thank you for watching!
So glad you mentioned the Unite Elevate Mousse. I have often wondered since starting my curl journey about products that can be used even though it doesn't say "for curly hair." What in your opinion makes a curly hair product different from other products. I look at anti humidity creams and dismiss because it doesn't say for curly hair. Is that really a good practice? I used the Ouidad Vita Curl Mousse today. Love the light airiness of it. Tfs! Blessings!
Pretty much the only difference between them is marketing. A lot of curly formulations would work great on straight hair that’s bleach damaged. Products for color treated hair would be great for curly hair that is dry because it is formulated to not strip the hair and to add moisture back in. An Aquage gel I used to use was a smoothing gel of some sort. I don’t remember the name but it was for blow outs. I used it when styling my hair curly because the smoothing effect worked great at frizz control without weighing my hair down! I’d say that if you see products that address issues that you have but aren’t labeled for curly hair, go for it! You just might find your perfect product! My daughter loves that Ouidad mousse! It’s definitely her favorite. Thank you for watching!
@@CurlyChelle547 - ty! Will definitely broaden my view on hair products not labeled "for curly hair."
Joico or Moroccan which one is better for volume and hold for fine wavy Short hair..PL reply
I have always used mousse rather than gel because I like the “dry” look. I feel like gel makes my hair look like it’s wet all the time 😅
Anyways, I used to love that Joico mousse in the late 90s/early 2000s . I remember loving the scent too, I should try it again
My favourite affordable mousse back in the day was salon selectives and Marc Anthony
Ok I was given a free full size eVolv insta volume mousse with purchase of shampoo and conditioner. I’m glad your review was positive. I hate to have something laying in waste around the house. I remember mousses from the 80s and 90s so I’m skeptical.
The instavolume mousse is definitely nothing like mousses from the 80s and 90s. Zero crunch, lots of volume. Thank you for watching!
Michelle, OGX has a coconut curls mousse. Have you tried that?
Yes, I did a video on it a while back. It was ok but I don’t really reach for it and I think I’ve even given it away at this point.
Do you think you might be able to do a video on things you don't recommend? Or even do's & don'ts? Whether it's universal (or close to universal, since few things are hard no's across the board), or just what usually works best for this texture vs that texture, what to avoid for that texture but not this texture, etc? Or maybe a troubleshooting video (or series if you wanted to go all in lol)? Like tips to minimize frizz, tips for people who struggle with diffusing, etc. Or if you can't get your curls to last to day 2, try this instead of that, or just whatever common struggle & ways to trouble shoot it.🤷🏽♀️ Or a products you won't be repurchasing and why - not to bash a brand or product, but maybe if you explained why you didn't like it for you but what curl types may like it.
I just like how informative & detailed you are & feel like you'd do a great job at something like that. Just a thought! I really love your combo videos too!
I’ve actually been jotting down information for a lot of those video ideas. Many of them are a bit complicated because there really aren’t any hard and fast rules, like you said. But I love the “try this instead of that” for specific issues and hair types! That’s a great way to present the information! Thank you! I am working on a dos and don’ts video and it’s probably going to be different than what people might expect or have seen. I did do a video on products I will and won’t be repurchasing a while back but I’ll be updating it every now and then. I love these ideas! I’m often times unsure exactly what people struggle with or want to know because I’m pretty far removed from beginner level. Not trying to be arrogant here, I just have so much experience that it’s second nature to me and I trouble shoot issues with very little conscious thought at this point. I find that doing reviews or the combo videos kind of organically brings up some topics I can talk about. But dedicated videos to these issues would make it easier for people to find. I love when people ask specific questions that I can turn into a video or do things like this and make suggestions or requests for what they’d like to see. I’m just getting to the point I need to keep track of them better and write them down or I can’t find the comment again. Still adjusting to increasing views and engagement. Lol. Feel free to fill up my IG dm with a novel or even send an email to the address in my description box with more ideas/questions if you’d like! I love it! You have a different perspective than me and it helps a lot! And thank you! Glad you like the combo videos and for saying you like how detailed and informative I am!
I've never really understood mousses and foams, but from what I'm hearing it's mainly for volume? Can you clarify when/why you'd emulsify it versus not? Isn't the whole point of mousses/foams the "air" in it, so if you emulsify it, aren't you removing the benefit of that?
Of all the mousses, which would you say is best for fine, low density hair, not requiring a lot of hold, but rather volume/bounce and softness? I was thinking the Aquage for the roots, and AG or Moroconoil for all over?
Mousses are great for volume and lightweight hold. I mostly don’t emulsify mousses or foam, I just slightly spread them out on my hands so it applies more evenly. I really only emulsify the Alterna one and use as a cream because of its consistency. Most don’t have that. The Aquage and the Moroccanoil used like you described would be great for fine low density hair! The AG mousse gel would work as well but I think you’ll get the results you’re looking with the Moroccanoil. Hope that helps. Thank you for watching!
I might have bad news on the joico mousse😬 Apparently there was a formula change. A few months ago during an ulta sale as I was drooling over all the hair products, reading reviews, etc, and on that mousse everyone was giving it 1 or 2 stars & saying that they had used that mousse for years, plenty of them saying 10+ yrs, it's the only mousse they ever use, etc, & that it's awful now & all of them were saying to bring the old formula back. Unless they have 2 mousses maybe? I swear even if they do that this was the same one. I know they had changed the formulas of an their shampoos & conditioners a couple yrs ago which sucked because they had this one conditioner that my hair absolutely loved, & I didn't know they had changed formulas & the new one was total garbage. I ended up looking at the reviews after the fact & noticed that they had reset the reviews (just like they did with the mousse) & what used to have 100s of great reviews now had a handful of reviews that averaged 3 stars or something. Just giving you a heads up!
Oh no! Thanks for the heads up. I guess I’ll find out for sure soon enough since I have to replace my broken one. Let’s hope it’s not my beloved Joiwhip! Why do companies do this? Ugh.
Sometimes, I use eBay when products are discontinued or there’s a supply chain issue. Out of curiosity, I looked up this Joico mousse. I saw it on eBay being sold in the green bottle and in a light silvery bottle. Joico’s site shows the green bottle. I know they could have changed their formula without the bottle design but that was weird.
Do they still make the Joico Joiwhip:? I goggled it and seems out of stock. TIA!
I’m pretty sure they still make it but I do see it’s out of stock a lot of places. Hopefully it’s not! I love the stuff! Thank you for watching!
Ohhhhh... Oops🤦🏽♀️ One of the multiple foams I just purchased was the aquage extreme freeze foam (I think that's the name), mostly because I thought that's what I had seen you use. I had forgotten yours had that nozzle.🤦🏽♀️ oh well, it's supposed to be a very hard hold, & I've been on a foam buying kick lately & probably would have gotten it either way.
Yeah. I bought that one by accident too. It could substitute for Crazy Glue!! 😂
@@Star-dj1kw 🤣🤣🤣 glad I'm not the only one....
When I read the back of the bottle I got intimidated, not gonna lie lol. I can't recall the exact wording, but it says something like "best used to create twisted spikes on short hair" or something😆
I'm so heavy handed with foams, too...
I'll have to try to go extra easy 😆
@@Star-dj1kw 😂
Lol. Uh oh. That one has crazy hold! The uplifting foam is not that nuts and perfect for fine volume challenged hair.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
So I'm just going to keep commenting one product at a time lol. At least it should boost the algorithm. It's too hard for me to wait till the end, then I went remember what I want to say.
I have that mousse gel & have only used it like twice & keep forgetting I have it. I'm not even sure if I used it since I started exclusively diffusing my hair 😱
I love my AG products though! Their volumizer foam is nice; it's the real watery type so I can go buck wild with it & not get weighed down. It works well with all my other AG products
Thanks for boosting the algorithm! 😂 I love AG products as well. There are some of their products I haven’t tried and I need to fix that situation. I want to try the cloud foam. Mousse? Can’t remember which but I’m intrigued.
@@CurlyChelle547 I know a lot of people like that cloud mousse (I think it says mousse but it's a foam), but it has freaking coconut oil in it so I'm not trying it.
I've got quite the collection, yet sometimes feel I don't have enough to choose from. 🤣 Weird?
Not weird! I’m definitely the same sometimes! lol. I’ll just sit and stare and think I’ve got nothing to put in my hair! When we all know that’s not true. lol. Thank you for watching!
If you have too much stuff why do t you do a giveaway? 🤷♀️. Just a thought! I think it would be fun and great for your channel!
I’d love to do a giveaway! But I think it would be nicer for the recipients to get brand new and unopened products instead of partially used ones. I do give stuff I know I won’t use to family and friends but I keep the rest in case I need it for a video, like this one for example. Thank you for the suggestion! And thank you for watching!
