    I've used Ouidad for about 25 years. I went natural when it wasn't a thing and Ouidad was the only products around for curls. So the heat and humidity gel has been reformulated since the original. I now use tres fx gel by Ouidad. Its a strong hold and its still the original formula. They used to have a great deep conditioner but discontinued it last year. Thank you for your in depth review. Love you guys!

The first styling product I recently bought is Ouidad and it changed everything for me 😃🎉 After cleansing and conditioner I use a leave in conditioner and Ouidad mousse, let hair dry half way, then use my defuser. The curls, shine, volume and hold I get is amazing, also Zero frizz. Oh and bc of you, I now keep my filthy hands out of my hair, Huge difference. Girl, Thank you ❤️

  • @VengefulAngeI
    @VengefulAngeI 2 года назад +5

    That weather up styling lotion is one of my all time fav hair creams! I always prefer lotion consistencies because my fine curls are easily weighed down, & that one does a great job of being moisturizing AND light weight. My hair doesn't dry out as the days go one with that one, whereas stone other lotion style ones will leave my curls dry after a couple of days

    I like the Ouidad climate control defining cream and gel, and I really like my results, but have been wanting to try the Twist line. I’m actually needing some new shampoo for my colored curls. Since you just colored your hair a gorgeous deeper shade, I’m sure both are color safe. Thanks for the review.

Who would have ever ever thought buying brushes and a hair dryer would have given me the best curls ever!! Thank You!! I’ve used quidad for years but found about twist from your channel and been trying it out for a week now. I’m still working on perfecting my methods so the jury is still out between the two but very happy with twist so far. I’m even getting compliments from strangers on my curls. My bad hair days can now be the exception instead of the rule. 😀😀😀

    Great video! Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Gel has been my hero product for years. I live in Texas and the humidity in my area is bad. The local weather guy has a "Muggy Meter" and the dew point is over 60 like 8 months out of the year. Ouidad Stronger Hold over the CurlSmith Feather-light Protein Cream has been a great combination for me this year. Stronger Hold leaves my hair feeling dryer than the original, so I use the original on my normal days and Stronger when I need to do my job, which is public speaking and training. It's great when I can't afford for my hair to fail me.

Love this stuff. I also have the blue bottle moisturizing conditioner and leave in conditioner(which smells so good). I use the advanced climate control gel and finish with mongongo oil. I have also bought the black and the white lines from Twist with the red bond strengther. I do like the twist products as well. Price wise, very comparable but I do like the Ouidad more. I will definitely have to try the red gel and the red jar mask. I love the smell of the purple mask😊 I will be buying more products for my collection because of this video. I think I need to build a giant spinning shelf in my bathroom to house all my hair products. 🤣

    I gasped out loud when I saw this because I've been buying A LOT of Twist products lately. I'm obsessed with their oil and their refreshing spray. But I wasn't a fan of either gel.

      I didn't like their gel either. Prefer something with a lot more hold. Haven't tried anything else from them yet.

    Omg Thank you soooo much Mell and Amanda. I have honestly spent this year getting overwhelmed and frustrated with my hair and was ready to give up on my curlys BUT I've been setting aside some self care time to watch your videos and learn a little each week (lol I'm 100% the nerd taking notes in my notebook). I'm definitely going to give Twist a try!! Thanks again for all these helpful videos

    When I was in cosmetolgy school our instructor would tell us nearly everyday...you don't "wash" hair. You "wash" a car. You "shampoo" your hair. And FYI: One of the other things she drilled into us was not use the term "roots". Roots are under that scalp. "New Growth" is the correct term. I'm so tuned into that. I'm surprised when profressional hair stylists use any of those terms. Thank you Ms. Sierra AND LOVE you're videos!!

    Can you do a video with your recommendation for swimmers with hair care? Like what shampoo you think would be the best for us. Ive seen the Paul mitchell shampoo three, but idk if it is really good. As a swimmer you practice 4-6 times a week

      I have hard water with chlorine and I use PM shampoo three for chelating. It works well but it is very stripping with a high pH. I don't know if I would want to use it multiple times a week, but if you condition well afterwards and otherwise protect your hair, use oil treatments etc it might be ok.

    What is your current routine for humidity/summer hair care? All the products you’re (you & Amanda) using like scalp care products, wash day products, UV protection, and stylers?
    I love seeing what you’re specifically using.
    Also, I have 2b/3a hair. It’s dry/and I’d say fine. As well as normal/medium porosity.
    I saw your recommendations video for your subscribers, but I wonder about the ones who don’t like a lot of product in their hair?
    I really love when my shampoo and conditioner and scrunching technique is enough for me, but I do use a curl cream when I go out. I’m trying to find products that compare to/are better than Oribe’s curl/moisture line (the shampoo, conditioner, and curl cream) but that are much more affordable. So I’ve been watching your videos! I also want my hair to be healthier and to find products that help repair my split ends. My hair hasn’t been colored in a few years now, I keep it natural. But I love my length!

    I live in Louisiana on the Gulf of Mexico - which, for those who don't know, has the highest levels of humidity in the country, tied with Southern Florida - and my hair looks a lot like Mells seester, Amanda. (Please do an updated hair routine and all things Amanda's hair plz 🙏😁)
    Ouidad is THE ONLY GEL THAT HAS EVER WORKED FOR ME in my home state. Now, when I am traveling or in another state, other brands have worked just fine. But there is a DRASTIC difference when in this kind of humidity. I have gotten to where I will only use Ouidad Advanced Climate Control in the red bottle. I have tried potentially everything on the market, but nothing has compared to the Ouidad. Also - lots of leave in conditioner - like, more than you would think. It has been a learning process.

    I love this comparison. Wondering if, as a hairdresser, you’ve considered testing out a commercial product or tool such as the CreaClip. I know that you already have videos on how do use elastics and sectioning for DIY home haircuts. But there only seems to be one hairdresser reaction video on this product in particular, and they don’t even use the product they just react to a video of somebody else trying the product at home. I think the CreaClip is a good tool for average people to use at home that don’t have actual hairdressing training and was wondering if an actual hairdresser has reviewed it. You've reviewed brushes and other tools for home use before. Just wondering if you would consider something to assist in DIy cuts and trims.

    The only Ouidad product I've tried is the Original Heat and Humidity gel. I actually love it and it pairs well with everything ive tried it with. Maybe ill try the stronger hold next, but I have low porosity hair and I although I need good hold I don't always like a freeze hold if that makes sense?
