First, thank you, Summer, for all your great videos! My new stylist who really seems to understand my flat, fine, flyaway, gummy/ cotton candy, over-lightened hair, recommended LolaVie Glossing Detangler, Bumble & Bumble Surf Foam Spray Blow Dry, and Bumble & Bumble Thickening Dryspun Texture Spray. I also hit it, and especially the flyaways, with a little Kenra 25. My stylist also suggested Bumble & Bumble bonding shampoo and conditioner, but I haven't tried them yet. I tried the Ouai shampoo and conditioner, but they seem to dry and make my ends frizz together into a knotted mess. I tried the Olaplex and Living Proof shampoos and conditioners, but even they can weigh my hair down. I've actually had better luck with Marc Anthony Grow Long shampoo and conditioner for making my hair feel light and clean and still pretty smooth and silky. I'm still trying to figure out heat protectants because I know it's important, but man, it's an awful lot of products when added to the other things, which I can't stand the feel of -any- products; and I've found it tends to block the heat so much my hair won't curl at all with it.
Hi Summer ! I am happy to see your new channel!! Congrats! I recently bought Moroccanoil beach mouse thinking it was a typical volume mouse. OMG what a mistake! I did not expect it to be so different, uber tacky and sticky feeling compared to a regular volume mouse. It made the blow out take forever and I could barely run a brush through my hair as I blow dried as the brush kept getting caught in my hair. The tacky dirty feeling was profound and lasted until my next shampoo 5 days later. Geezaloo! 😖 Beachy mouse is not the same as volume mouse, evidently! I would love a part 2 video about all the various texture sprays and please touch on how beachy texture sprays & mousses differ from regular texture sprays. And I would also love to see a video on how and when to clean the build up gunk from various types of hair brushes and hot tools. Thanks!
So happy you came over Rochelle!! I have accidentally bought that same one and was like man! What a waste of a blow out 😄. Thanks for watching and great video ideas 🥰
I gave away all my salt sprays and texture sprays. I can just go to the beach and have the ocean spray on me for free. The only texture spray I love is the famous and very expensive Oribe. I received samples and absolutely loved it so that made me buy a bunch of others thinking I could recreate the experience. Nope.
Im so glad i found your channel. I have been using Redken Bug Blow Out because its light and allows me to go about 4 days without washing. But I really want to try a cream since my ends are dry even though my hair is pretty short compared to yours. Now to decide which one. I am also in the middlenof growing out my gray so my roots can be dryer as I've aged. Thanks 50. Keep making these great videos for us fine haired girls.
Thanks for all the great tips! I have used Kevin Murphy´s body builder and it is very light weight and effective but a bit expensive. I am definitely going to try out Moroccan oil :)
I’ve been watching your videos for tips to help out my Mom. This is a totally new world to me as I’m a curly girl with lots of volume. I need a one product solution that’s not going to feel very producty because my Mom is in her early ‘70’s and has gone her whole life without putting anything in her hair. I think I’m going to try the Small Talk and see how it works. I wish I could try it out on myself first like I’m doing with makeup but our hair is way too different. A big unknown is if I can convince her to use a hair dryer.
I don’t have much experience with volume products but I recently bought the Bumble and Bumble volume spray half price and I really like it. It’s very light feeling. I’m looking for a root lifter for sensitive scalps.
I just used root lifter once so far and a whole new world is opening to me. I used Kenra. I used to love Kenra mousse but found REPEATEDLY that the dispenser would break!! If that happens one CANNOT use it anymore- no matter how much is left! So Kenra needs to FIX THAT it’s very disgusting to spend that much money and still have lots of product left but cannot use it.
As a fellow Floridian, I 100% get the heat/humidity/sweat struggle! My question is for the latter. I am not one of those gals who just “glows” when it’s 95 and 70% humidity…I sweat!! I find that any product I use tends to reshape or reset (not sure how to describe this) to totally flat once I’ve been outside doing life! You go walk to the playground, park you car in the back 40 at Target, having duty outside at school, etc etc. I get sweaty, my scalp gets damp, and then the product gets re-wet, and then once back inside in the AC, my hair is flat with zero volume. Sometimes I just blow dry with zero product just because I get frustrated that the work I put into styling is worthless by 10am!! Help! Since I don’t carry a blow dryer in my purse 😂 do you have any suggestions for how to deal with what Florida dishes out 6 months of the year? Thanks!!
Have you tried applying dry shampoo before leaving your house to try and absorb some more of the oils? It is hard to balance if your scalp sweats that easily.
Ive noticed The Ordinary Hair Density serum has made my roots appear thicker. People think its going to help ur hair grow, it doesnt. It just makes ur hair appaer and feel more dense at the root, with no film or feeling sticky or tacky.
I have fine flat hair but its also frizzy and coarse... so alot of volume products make my hair sticky and hard to blowdry. I need a product that BOTH smooths and makes blowdrying easy AND gives shape, bounce and volume. Its like the quest for the holy grail. 😅
I have been using leave- in-conditioner when I am blow drying my hair and never use any of the hair volume products. I would like to start the root boost product. Do I still need to apply the leave-in-conditioner? Greatly appreciate your video 😄😄😄!
girl thank you so much for you videos! I do wonder which would be the best option for fine and THIN hair. I have a bob cut and it get's so falt on top but also lacks volume on the sides. I don't know which product would give me the best results without weighing down the little hair I have.
I was surprised how much I like Moroccanoil volume hair shampoo & conditioner. Not greasy on my fine staticky hair, much better than Living Proof. I do like Living Proof’s thickening cream though and plan to try the Moroccan oil root boost. Thanks for the info on these!
Theirs is my favorite!!! I always always go back to it. LPs thickening cream is lovely, I like it better than MO. If you try MOs root boost, come back and let me know how you like it!
@@SummerBeautyc still waiting for it to come in the mail. what is your favorite to stop static flyaway hair? It’s such a delicate balance between greasy hair and keeping it clean yet “swingy”
@@SummerBeautyc the MO Root Boost finally came in... yep, i like this this and how it retains my style, using it mainly on the top and front. I've been using with with less than a dime size of LP's thickener and getting good results. thank you ! I use a conair curling brush and the T3 to start the drying process to lift my front roots. Have you created a video for staticky hair yet?
Great video and beautiful hair! I’ve been using Moroccanoil root boost, thickening cream and perfect defense because my hair is on thin side and very fine and wanted to protect from curling iron which I use sometimes. Would the Mousse alone protect my hair from curling iron?
No it is not a heat protectant. You would want to use a secondary product that provides heat protection. I love so many things Moroccan Oil but it does bum they don't seem to mix in a heat protectant with other products always.
I use the Moroccan hydrating styling cream and like it a lot. Can I use their volume cream or mousse as well and which one would I use first? Your video was so helpful. Thank you
The styling cream is great! I like their mousse over the volume cream. The volume cream is nice but you need very little product or it's to heavy feeling. If volume is more your priority use that first but if you want more tlc with the hydrating cream, then use that first!
I don't have a lot of experience with styling products but the JF Volume Lift mousse I grabbed from the drugstore is one that works for my fine hair type. It can get a little sticky is if I use too much or use it with other products. Definitely have to blow it out to see any result just like you said. 0:17
I’m using Redken big blowout at the recommendation of another influencer but my hair, though fine and thin, is very curly so I need a smoothing thickening cream since I get frizz with this one 😅🫣 any recommendations Summer? Thank you I love all your videos 💖
Big blowout is a good way to get heat protection but other than that I don't think it does anything. I love IGK Beach Club, Living Proof Thickening Creme for adding volume and they would be great to pair with Pravanas Polish and Reunite. That product helps with frizz but is still light weight. Color Wow Dream coat also is nice as well!
I have a few products I really enjoy but as a whole I've never been obsessed with the brand. I like the Texturiza, Conundrum Paste. I did always enjoy their Expanda Volume Root Lifter which your questions has brought me adding it to my cart lol. I never liked their shampoos though.
I see a blowout creme and thickening creme as one in the same honestly....but because I always want volume I opt for a blowout creme that provides volume.
I find volume products drying to my hair, maybe I need to to try the creams I tried color wow raise the root and did not like it , maybe I need to try again but literally felt it dried my roots out again maybe I should not be trying this type of product yet until my hair is in better health also
I have felt Raise the Root, is hit of miss for me. A volume cream I do find to be less drying than other volume products, just give them some time because they can be really concentrated, so figuring out the perfect amount needed for your hair type can take a couple blow dries. Thanks for watching!
It would be appreciated if you would state that you are getting monetary renumeration on any of the products recommended. Influencers do not do this and act like the mentioned product is "the holy grail" until one looks at unbiased reviews on Amazon/Sephora/Ulta and see they do not nearly meet that threshold.
You must not have read the description as this video isn't sponsored. At most, I may earn up to $3 whole dollars if a viewer chooses to click on a link in the description and then buy the product......certainly life changing money!!! Crazy right? If you read the description you can see that I state I earn a small commission. Please don't insinuate that I am lying about my like and love for products that I mention on my channel.
You’re just fine. I’ve found that most content producers I watch are up front about it. You’re quite clear and honest. I find your channel knowledgeable and engaging. Carry on with your great work!
Jesus is coming back be ready everyone ❤ Repent and believe the Gospel ❤If you openly declare Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart God raised him from the dead u will be saved
Aveda volumizing tonic is my holy grail root lifter!! I’ve never had or used anything like this in over 10 years and I’ve bought so many 🤦🏽♀️
Super helpful vid. Have been wondering all these questions and you've answered them , thankyou!
Glad it was helpful!

I am so glad I found your channel. I love watching your styling videos and these comparison videos. Very informative. Thank you!
I'm so glad!
Hi Summer. I am such a fan of Moroccan Oil products. Yes, please do the follow up video as well. I enjoyed this video very much!
Noted! Have you tried their Thickening Creme?
@@SummerBeautyc No, I haven't as I have naturally thick hair🙂.

Can you please do a video on all product categories like this?
That's the plan!
Do all of these thickening creams only work if you blow dry? I air dry.
Following! Need a thickening and volume product for the roots that works with air dry only.

Your hair look gorgeous . I want the same cut and blow dry like your.
Can thickening crème really ‘expire’? I don’t use enough and expiry date always comes before I’m done the bottle
At some point yes.
I like Kerastase, it doesn't leave any residue and is not sticky.
Somehow I'm all my years I have never tried Kerastase 🤦. I feel like I should just turn in my license 😂
@@SummerBeautyc Yes you should! lol You really should try their products, especially the oil, it's great!
Can I ask what you think about the unite products? Can you review them please! Thank you. ❤ your vids.

@@SummerBeautyc thank you so much for replying. I will stick to your favs.
I'm sensitive to fragrances. Is the Moroccan root lifter a strong scent?
I personally don't find it to be, and I feel I'm sensitive. If you want to try it out, I believe you can get it in a travel size first.
I have dry wavy puffy thin short hair.. should I try MO thickening cream or Root boost..pl help..dear..
BTW love your videos 😄
You can use both! Start with very little of the thickening creme, it's super heavy.
@@SummerBeautyc tysm dear ❤️
