What a fun video Justin! Thank you so much for asking me to be apart of this! I still can't believe the winner! I am reaching for this product over and over again in my regular routine now. I am so thankful for our friendship and getting to do fun things like this with you.
Right back at ya! Trust me, without you....there is no video here! It was a ton of fun. I hope you liked the way Joseph edited it. I thought he did a killer job!
I'm a Houstonian, born and raised. It averages 80% humidity 9 months out of the year. The Frizz ease has been the most consistent at taming my fine, thin, curly hair. Keep up the good work, I really enjoy your videos.
I haven’t watched the whole video yet but saw your comment. I have low density, wavy hair -living in NC. Which Frizz Ease products do you use ? I know they have quite a few. Thank you.
Can you please make a video where you test heat protectants? Which ones protect well and which ones let the hair burn off? That would be such a cool video.
Why didn't you just ask me? I could have saved you and Gabi a lot of trouble... I use Frizz Ease on my thick, very wavy, frizz prone hair... I live in New Jersey and the humidity in the summer is formidable... Or if it rains. I discovered Frizz Ease about 15 years ago, it works the best for me. Also, us frizzy haired ladies know better than to go stand in a steamy bathroom!!... I think a better test would be real life conditions like rain and humidity. I know... not scientific but for this test, actual weather conditions would show the true results users can expect. Love these videos... Hats off to Gabi... LOVE her!
I really appreciate you and @GlamGirlGabi collaborating to do this test Justin, thank you both so much! And I have to say I’m relieved to hear I’m not the only one to have this ongoing frizzy hair problem - the moment I walk out the door my fine, thin hair turns into a fluffy mess! 🤣. I’ve tried the Wow, will now give John Frieda a go 🤗
Thank you for the detailed review. Frizz Ease is the GOAT and pioneer of products for taming hair. They never really get the credit they deserved. I believe it is because it’s a drugstore product and not deemed worthy. John Frieda had a product in the early 90’s called ‘Mirror Image’. It was a heat activated spray that coated the hair and promised 3 day manageability of frizz. It was a great product and got the job done. Sadly discontinued. After using Color Wow dream coat, I know that they are the same product. Interestingly, the CEO of Color Wow was also the head of John Frieda in the past. Coincidence? There are very few corporations that own several cosmetic brands. Of course they are using the same formulations. They aren’t paying for multiple teams of chemists for research and development. They just change the packaging and a few filler/carrier ingredients. Truly compare the labels of high end to drugstore budget friendly products. You might save yourself some $$
I moved to Singapore eight years ago. It has high humidity year round. I have blonde hair with highlights. Two weeks after getting off the plane my highlights turned bright orange and my hair was puffy and course. I have tried everything and the only thing that works was the full Brazilian keratin treatment and/or a salon blow out with higher heat than I do at home. Processed hair and fine textured hair both make frizz more likely and both together are bad. It becomes a viscous circle as the frizz damages hair making it more vulnerable to frizz.
These videos are gold! Thank you, Justin & Gabi for taking the time to do these tests for us! I have very straight hair that doesn’t frizz, but I am still curious about these products. I use a lot of different color wow products, so I am always wanting to learn about them. Thank you!
The one thing I noticed with using Frizz Ease in the past was after a few uses it would cause a lot of build up. More higher end products seem to work a little better in that respect. I do appreciate the test and knowing what other options are out there to try!
I was born in Houston and have lived on the Gulf Coast my entire life, last year I quit using anti frizz products and switched to Redken Frizz Dismiss Smoothing Conditioner. It works when I blow dry my hair as well as when I let my hair dry. No frizz for 3 to 4 days. I typically wash my hair every 3 days unless I've had to upload a can of hairspray on it due to wind and I'll wash that out as soon as I return home.
Frizz Ease and Biosilk are my two go-to’s for my coarse, fine, curly hair. As Gabi stated regarding Frizz Ease, they can be used before blow drying and on dry hair. Have been using both for over 30 years.
Briogeo was like glue in my hair. Glad to know I also wasn't using the Color Wow wrong, did ok but didn't hold. Frizz Ease has been around FOREVER, I used it when it first came out in the 90's. Went to a short cut for about 25 years. Have since grown out and back to fighting the frizz. Looks like I'm going back to the OG!!!
I’ve used frizz ease serum for years. I’m glad to see that it is the fave. I love it! Now I need recommendations for shampoo conditioners for frizzy hair! Thanks!
I was super surprised by it for sure. Do you find it lasts a while for you? Or do you go through the bottle quickly? The price per ounce is my big question with it.
Thank you so much to u both for this video!!! I have terribly frizzy hair in any kind of humidity no matter what hair products im using. Im always searching for better frizz control. I don't think ive tried that frizz ease so I'm excited to check it out.
Vivo en Asunción Paraguay. 80% de humedad todo el año. Yo uso el de color wow y me funciona 10 puntos !!!!! Lo amo y lo volvería a comprar mil veces más
What a perfect test subject! Gaby did a great job. I honestly rarely need a de frizz product but when I do, I honestly use your Just De-Frizz heat protectant. 😊
She did awesome right! I’m so appreciative of all the work she did. She’s a rockstar. Thanks for trusting my product! I wish it was still in production! We’ll have to figure out a way to bring it back to market.
I have 57 yo color treated hair that air dries wavy and frizzy/coarse. ColorWow works for me but wish results had bit more shine, but I will definitely try frizz ease to save $ upfront cuz I dont use it everyday.
OK, this is a really good series and I’m really on board for it. Can’t wait until you test shampoos and conditioners for different types of hair, is that even possible? Keep up the great work.
Thank you for this! I am going to stay with the frizz ease - not sure how much better the others would work on my hair as I have thick coarse hair, but I will follow your and Gabi’s suggestions
Hey! Thank you so much for the trust! Thick coarse hair, if you are flat ironing it smooth and straight (not looking for much volume) you may get great results from the Color WOW as well. Could be worth a try at some point.
Whatsup lady! Thanks for hangin out today! Gabi killed it right! Dionna was talking all about your live video she watched a few days ago and how great it was!
I use oil on dry hair. Wash after 5 days. I have grey curly color treated hair. My favorite anti frizz product at this time is leave in conditioner and Proclaim glossing polish from Sally’s Beauty. The glossing polish helps when I heat style and air dry. I just don’t want to spend a lot on products. I did buy Moroccan oil and that was a splurge. Thanks for the review.
Interesting!! I live on an island and it can get really humid in the summer. If I flat iron my hair and go out in the humidity, it’s full on curly pretty quick no matter what I use. I’ve gotten to the point of just putting it up to get it out of my face😆
I have very thick curly hair that I blow out on a regular basis. Have tried every frizz product out there and the one that works the best is Redkens Frizz Dismiss. Amazing product!
Hello from central Texas, where it's often very hot and VERY humid. Gabi is right about the sweat and humidity, which is exactly what happens when I'm outside and it's 90 degreees and 85% humidity with a dew point of 54 degrees and I've got to carry my groceries up the stairs. Avoiding humidity frizz is a constant struggle here. You are right, it's more of a system, not a single product. I wear my wavy hair wavy all the time, no round brush, no flat iron. My hero product is Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Heat and Humidity Gel (whew, what a name) in the Stronger Hold version. The film forming copolymer and polyquarterniums really help keep the huimidity frizz at bay. I generally don't use silicones in my routine, but when I really need to keep my hair from frizzing, I do use a silicone-based serum like the Frizz Ease along with the gel.
I used to use the briogeo. I have very fine hair and now that I pay more attention (and found things that do work!) I notice SO many products weigh my hair down. The past couple years I have found better luck with the bumble and bumble b6. One of my problems with the briogeo is that when blow drying my hair is harder to get thru with my brush and pulls more than the b6 - and I already have issues with hair loss. I am trying out the Wow product but haven’t used it much. The other thing i had sitting in my cabinet for like a year before trying it (it came in a Sephora try pack) was IGK good behavior - when I finally tried it I was so impressed. I don’t use it all the time but if I notice my hair is frizzier than normal I spray that on my ends after styling and am really impressed. I live in South Carolina - so it’s a struggle.
If you want to blow all the mentioned products out of the way, try Kevin Murphy "Smooth.Again". I have very curly, fine and frizz prone hair and I have fought frizz for 40 years. I have tried tons of products, including several you tested here, and this is the best so far. I actually use the Kevin Murphy Smooth.Again shampoo, conditioner and leave in Smoothing lotion; but I have used the leave in on it's with other shampoos many times and it works great. I liked the Virtue best before using this and still like it but this is better. If I had just washed and blown dry my hair and then used a flat iron and got in that steamy room my hair would have looked like a bush.
Did you see the comment about yours she said that Kevin Murphy smooth again products for amazing and worked a lot better than anything shown in this video
I really enjoy your channel & has provided me with lots of useful info. I was wondering if you could discuss hair routine & products for grey hair with dandruff. Thanks
My hair is course and curly, but has always responded really well to product, blow dries beautifully and has always stayed silly and smooth after styling. But as of late, nothing has staved away the frizz. It’s so bad that after blow drying AND flat ironing, it starts to puff up and frizz all on its own, without even stepping outside, let alone sitting in a steamed room. I haven’t used Frizz Ease in many, many years, but will now give it a shot again.
I have really been enjoying your videos. I've had my hair cut in a bob for many years because it does suit me. For the past 14 years it's been in what m my stylist called an inverted bob and it was so easy to care for and I got many compliments on the style and the color. I let my natural gray color grow in way before our worked went upsidedown. Now I'm dealing with curly hair. It was getting harder to straighten and I decided to let it go natural again. How about a video to find the best curling products. That might be helpful to many of us. Thanks for all the helpful advice you give.
This e actly why i get a keatin treatment every spring. Once the hunidity season is about to hit. It doesnt straighten my, but once i dry my natural curly hair the keratin treatment seals my hair in the straight manner i dried it in even humidity. As long as i dont get my hair WET it will remain mostly straighten. I had an old tibe of frizz ease but i dont remember liking it. It could have been inproved since i originally bought it. Anyway. I will never be without my keratin treatment in soring, sumner or early fall. It usually last 5 months. Ut is pricey $300 but worth every bit of what i spend. Thats my 2 cents worth! But great show!!!
Do you mind saying which treatment you get? I have had the Brazilian blowout and Maria tectiera, and a couple others that I don't even remember the names of and most recently I went to Ulta and had their smoothing treatment added on along with my color and it did not do a thing at all. I also went to a salon while I was working as a travel nurse and again I was supposed to have a Brazilian blowout and it did not work so I'm guessing she did not even use the product she claimed she was going to use ,
@Katie-vy5rd I have been getting Cezanne Keratin treatments and they have been working better than any other keratin treatments I've had. Plus less harsh on my hair. Keratin always made my hair feel waxy before.
I have very long hair and used the Color Wow Extra Strength and made sure to add as much as possible on towel dried hair and than blow dried with tension. I tested it out for 5 days straight. House cleaning, gardening etc in hot humid weather. Worked like a champ! You have to follow the directions and you can wash your hair I’d say once or twice afterwards before you’d need to add more product. I did this with a sample size before committing. I was able to get two rounds out of the sample size but I washed my hair about 2 times in between uses. Hope this helps! ❤ Ps.. I have a lot of thin curly wavy hair but I straighten it.
When I don’t want to fuss with my hair or it’s a rainy or snowy day, I wear a topper…the hair on my toppers is usually remy human hair…it never frizzes…so I can put on a small base topper, go do my day and not worry about hair frizzing. My hair frizzes sooooooooo easily..i may try Frizz Ease..just for kicks!
Hope it works for you but never ever works for me I do not like Frizz Ease but maybe you will or maybe everyone else does it did nothing for me except weigh my hair down and make it look worse
Fun coincidence. I ordered a bottle of 'Color Wow' a couple weeks ago. Only used it once, though, as I don't straighten my shoulder length (thick, dense, wavy) hair very often. For me the result was ok... definitely not worth the price difference to my random drugstore 'straightening milk' (something L'Oreal in a pink bottle, might be different from the US product). The hair looked fine after styling it. But it had reverted back to it's slightly wavy, tips curled up state by next morning. As it always does. Can't speak to frizz protection, as my hair isn't very frizz prone and loves high humidity. It's the weirdest thing. My hair gets bushy and frizzy from dry air. Basically only ever if I'm in a building with air conditioning. High humidity makes my hair smooth and shiny and well behaved. I've always wondered, why that is. But anyways. I read some reviews, that you really have to saturate the hair with the Color Wow, for it to work properly. I didn't quite do that, although I did partition it and carefully sprayed it strand by strand. I'll for sure repeat the experiment with more product soon, but I don't think, it's a candidate for repurchase for me.
I have thick naturally curly hair and use the color wow myself recently and it still was kind of big for lack of a better word and stiff looking I did not care for the finished look and I too did the same as you did just saturating the pieces as I went and frankly I thought maybe somebody did a dirty and maybe swapped it out for water because it's had no sense had no texture or no feel to it I'm fine with it being sent free cuz I have so many allergies and asthma but it just seemed like water to me
Just regular styling gel works for that. Get one that is alcohol free to not dry out the hair even more. If it's only a few hairstrands that stand up you can just put the gel on them (on dry hair!) and push them down and blowdry on the lowest airflow speed but with high heat to set the gel. It will hold all day if you don't touch it during the day. If more than a few, you can use a bigger amount and spread it out over your hair and blowdry it. It's important to use a low airflow setting to keep the hair where you want it and just use the heat to dry the gel. I used this method all the time when I wanted "straight" hair years ago. Nowadays I wear it naturally curly and couldn't be happier.
I'm in my 70's and have medium length, fine, thin hair, which will frizz even though I live in a dry climate. Color Wow Dream Coat was a miracle for my hair! My hair is not thick and coarse as you suggested, so apparently more like Gabi's. Not sure why it didn't work on her because mine has never looked better!!
I live in the south where humidity is a constant issue for my fine textured wavy/frizzy hair. Frizz-ease doesn't work on my hair and Color WOW actually it worse than using nothing. I've spent a fortune trying different products. At present I'm getting decent results with L'ange Glass Hair and a Kenra anti-humidity hairspray. Not infallible, but better than most.
If you read the directions for the Color Wow Dream Coat it states that it only needs to be used every 3 to 4 shampoos. With that in mind it makes it very affordable. Didn’t read all the comments so don’t know if anyone else commented on this.
Wow, thanks to you and especially to Gaby for a great video. Too funny, Frizz Ease FTW. (BTW, with coupons and sales, you can get great deals on their stuff) So far, my best humidity-resistant formula is to use their serum, then use their 3 Days Straight and heat style after blow drying. Best of all, though, is that fall is here and the humidity has dropped and now all my product combos are phenomenal. Fun fact: Color Wow and Frizz Ease were both developed by Gail Federici. I've tried Color Wow Dream Coat, and my beef is that the directions are to use it on its own and it's just not moisturizing enough for my hair. I'm not "wowed" enough to invest in the add-ons that might make it work a little better for me.
Thank you! Love this insight! I actually had the exact same gripe about Color Wow and using other products with it. It felt very limiting to me and I was worried that the reason you weren't supposed to may be that it uses a type of silicone that reacts with some other products and makes them feel really gummy in the hair. If so, that could also potentially build up in hair leaving hair flat and dull over time. Not sure off that's the case but it was the first thing that came to mind.
I have some Color Wow and the label says it lasts through several washings. So the product would still be in the hair on subsequent product testings, but oh well , I’ll try some out on my own hair. But thanks for the info!
Great video-it brings up more questions, though. First of all, curl is not frizz. Frizz is when hair strands absorb water and poof up. Not all curls frizz. LOL, you can tell I'm not a professional hairdresser. But I do have curly, wavy hair. I use Frizz Ease styling serum, and it's good. I will try the serum. I need height so a lot of products weight the top of my hair down, but if I don't use then my hair frizzes. How do I not weigh my hair down and not get frizz?
I use the color wow and they suggest flat ironing to increase better results, and it works so good on my fine hair with the flat iron. Without the flat iron it’s not as good😢
I don't straighten mine and I live in the south, but I find a hair gel works pretty well. Does it matter what type of shampoo that you use though? I find the no-frizz shampoos don't really clean my hair.
What about the Color Wow Youth Juice? This product just popped up in my feed. I have bad thinning and shedding but if this Youth Juice was such a miracle I would have heard about it before now! Any thoughts on this product and its ingredients? Thank you - would love to get your feedback!
Justin, this video was super helpful! But what happened to your Just De-Frizz product? I purchased it last year and it’s the best product ever! Now it’s not on your website. I was only able to find it off amazon like three months ago
I live in Florida where the humidity and heat in general takes a huge toll on my hair which is course and not straight at all I just wasted alot of $ buying the Color Wow and I was highly disappointed!.Yes I first tried the over the counter Frizz control products with no results in taming this hair of mind This weather here is disgusting if you don't have naturally straight hair and need to resort to wearing a ponytail most of the time!
Hi, I have watched numerous videos that have cemented my discussion to get a long angeled bob with layers. Your videos on how to style really don’t seem to apply to my hair texture. I have frizzy hair and if I followed your… my hair would feel smooth it could feel “crunchy”. Any chance for a non-straight hair styling tutorial? Spanish wavy can be crispy and can be smooth a luscious hair Chica :-)
Interesting. I’d love to see how they work for those of us with wavy to curly hair but don’t straighten it. I live in the PNW where humidity is high and it rains a lot. I’ve never had any luck from any of the anti-frizz products. Not even stuff made for curls like the Ouidad climate control line.
Just regular styling gel (not wax!) works for that. Put it onto dry hair on the parts where you need it, when you're satisfyed with how the curls look and won't touch it anymore. Then you blowdry the gel on the lowest airflow to set the gel. This will hold all day if you keep your hands out of your hair.
My issue is so I didn’t blow dry, my top layer is super frizzy when I don’t. It had static. I put an oil on and it was more staticky! I tried matrix hair food oil to tame it. Nope. Static. I don’t want to have to blow dry to get that top layer to stop frizzing out when I don’t blow dry. Any suggestions? I do use Puerology leave in conditioner.
You have to flat iron these products in. Back in the 90s, before flat irons were common, one rainy day I did a roller set to straighten my hair and then went out for the night. I had an umbrella so at no point did water touch my hair directly, but the 100 percent humidity did all night. When I got back home and saw myself in the mirror my hair had completely reverted to my natural curls (3B curls) as if I did not spend 2 hours rolling up my hair and sitting under a dryer. Fast forward to the late 2000s when I used a silicone serum and flat ironed my hair pin straight, I went out on another rainy night. Like before I had an umbrella and no water directly touched my hair, only the ambient humidity. My hair stayed straight the whole time. Only parts of the hairline started to wave up, and they didnt even get curly, only slightly wavy. For me roller sets or blow dries on their own are never enough to keep my hair from reverting, I have to use silicone, and use a flat iron. I have always only used beauty supply store silicone serum brands as well.
That's why silicone is banned on the Curly Girl Method. It kills the curls. If you want lushious curls you can not use products containing silicone. Since I stopped using silicone (in any products on my hair), my hair curled up beautifully, like fairytale prinsess hair with pretty ringlets you'll see in storybooks. I'll never fight my curls or fry them again. I get so many compliments and stares. Guys especially love it. I don't understand why people don't embrace their curls instead of frying them off...
@@tessltaekook8501 Indeed. I wear my hair natural most of the time and rarely heat style it. If you have not tried using steam I highly recommend it. You can steam in hair masks for deep conditioning and you can steam your curls dry to refresh them. When I steam my curls they all curl up to their perfect natural pattern, I get great volume, definition, and shine. Make sure you have enough styling product in your hair before you steam it or you will get frizz.
Hey, this might sound like an odd request but last week at the hairstylist, I showed her a picture and asked do you think I could have this style, would it work? And she said, no, the primary reason is you don't own a blow dryer and it needs one for the front. (It was choppy short bob with long framing bangs, you can see the exact haircut if you Google image search, Sophie thatcher bob haircut, it's the first image), I have seemingly straight, thin, fine hair she says is actually not straight but has volume -although I can't tell the difference to be honest 🤷🏻). Can you make a video explaining what using a blow dryer vs straight or curling iron, would make? It's not that I'm opposed to using tools or product, I just haven't figured out what the purpose is when I'm not looking for mega volume or hair straightening? (Instead she gave me a bob with side swept bangs, blow dried it, it's a week later, I've washed it and finger combed it and honestly it looks the same, so why should I be using a blow dryer? Please please explain. I haven't touched a hair tool since those Zzzz crimpers in high school (if you don't remember them ask your wife!)
Can you please try this experiment again with very high porosity hair? My hair is extremely frizzy because of the high porosity, so poofs even without going outside, and regardless of the weather, and even professionals at the salon can’t prevent my hair from frizzing after doing it, because it’s porosity is that high. Wig hair is always low porosity, because no one will buy frizzy hair, and my hair is A LOT frizzier than Gabi’s.
You can't compare her hair to anyone else's. age, genes, hair type all are factors. I have dry frizzy hair. I've tried everything on the market. They all work great in no humidity, but the minute you encounter rain, or fog, or humidity in general, back to frizzy. Also, it depends on what type of shampoo, conditioner, and yes even the water in your house/area. Wig hair is not the same as human hair. I have found the best way to combat my frizzy hair is to hot roll it after it is dry.

What a fun video Justin! Thank you so much for asking me to be apart of this! I still can't believe the winner! I am reaching for this product over and over again in my regular routine now.
I am so thankful for our friendship and getting to do fun things like this with you.

Gabi - you are wonderful!!
@@jeanettestalmack2183 Thank you! ☺ You are too!
@@GlamGirlGabi ❤️
I'm a Houstonian, born and raised. It averages 80% humidity 9 months out of the year. The Frizz ease has been the most consistent at taming my fine, thin, curly hair. Keep up the good work, I really enjoy your videos.
I haven’t watched the whole video yet but saw your comment. I have low density, wavy hair -living in NC. Which Frizz Ease products do you use ? I know they have quite a few. Thank you.
I’m too am a houston girl. My problem is, since using the anti frizz products, I’ve noticed my hair is a lot dryer than before.
@@mariacarmelo8958 That’s disappointing
I’m in the New Orleans area. My hair is coarse, curly/wavy and grey. I wear it curly. No amount of product will eliminate frizz for me.
Can you please make a video where you test heat protectants? Which ones protect well and which ones let the hair burn off? That would be such a cool video.
Oh my!! I can't believe she did this!!! She is the best!🥰🥰
Loving this series! Can you do best shine products next?
@@ilovemymommy7470 YES PLEASE I want glass hair 😅
Please make a video on which products holds curls longer & feels less crispy or hard on touch.
Ouidad humidity foam works great on my fine wavy hair - I don't prefer any crunch or wet look for my hair.
Do you not scrunch out the crunch when it's completely dry?
@@nafisatasnim7057 yes I need this too
I'd want to know what would cause less frizz when letting hair air dry
.
Frizz-easy, has hidróxido sódico into ingredients
Relaxer into the formula
I have used Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum for years as my go to frizz control. I’m shocked why no one ever talks about it.
I’ll check it out👍
I agree 100%!I got all Paul M!The root lifter volumizer sensational for thin hair!
Why didn't you just ask me? I could have saved you and Gabi a lot of trouble... I use Frizz Ease on my thick, very wavy, frizz prone hair... I live in New Jersey and the humidity in the summer is formidable... Or if it rains. I discovered Frizz Ease about 15 years ago, it works the best for me. Also, us frizzy haired ladies know better than to go stand in a steamy bathroom!!... I think a better test would be real life conditions like rain and humidity. I know... not scientific but for this test, actual weather conditions would show the true results users can expect. Love these videos... Hats off to Gabi... LOVE her!
Right?
I'm in Chicago and I am resolved to just pull my hair up from Memorial Day to about Oct 1.
I'll have to try Frizz Ease next summer.
@@nancydann1332 Which Frizz Ease products do you use ?
I want someone to take a walk through the redwood forest and see what product can handle that
Color wow works best for me. I have fine, curly , frizzy hair but a lot of it. It's also low porosity.
I really appreciate you and @GlamGirlGabi collaborating to do this test Justin, thank you both so much! And I have to say I’m relieved to hear I’m not the only one to have this ongoing frizzy hair problem - the moment I walk out the door my fine, thin hair turns into a fluffy mess! 🤣. I’ve tried the Wow, will now give John Frieda a go 🤗
Thank you for the detailed review. Frizz Ease is the GOAT and pioneer of products for taming hair. They never really get the credit they deserved. I believe it is because it’s a drugstore product and not deemed worthy. John Frieda had a product in the early 90’s called ‘Mirror Image’. It was a heat activated spray that coated the hair and promised 3 day manageability of frizz. It was a great product and got the job done. Sadly discontinued. After using Color Wow dream coat, I know that they are the same product. Interestingly, the CEO of Color Wow was also the head of John Frieda in the past. Coincidence? There are very few corporations that own several cosmetic brands. Of course they are using the same formulations. They aren’t paying for multiple teams of chemists for research and development. They just change the packaging and a few filler/carrier ingredients. Truly compare the labels of high end to drugstore budget friendly products. You might save yourself some $$
Well said, great research and tips!
Wow interesting insight thank you
What a great collaboration and a service to your followers! Thanks to both of you.
I moved to Singapore eight years ago. It has high humidity year round. I have blonde hair with highlights. Two weeks after getting off the plane my highlights turned bright orange and my hair was puffy and course. I have tried everything and the only thing that works was the full Brazilian keratin treatment and/or a salon blow out with higher heat than I do at home. Processed hair and fine textured hair both make frizz more likely and both together are bad. It becomes a viscous circle as the frizz damages hair making it more vulnerable to frizz.
These videos are gold! Thank you, Justin & Gabi for taking the time to do these tests for us! I have very straight hair that doesn’t frizz, but I am still curious about these products. I use a lot of different color wow products, so I am always wanting to learn about them. Thank you!
The one thing I noticed with using Frizz Ease in the past was after a few uses it would cause a lot of build up. More higher end products seem to work a little better in that respect. I do appreciate the test and knowing what other options are out there to try!
I was born in Houston and have lived on the Gulf Coast my entire life, last year I quit using anti frizz products and switched to Redken Frizz Dismiss Smoothing Conditioner. It works when I blow dry my hair as well as when I let my hair dry. No frizz for 3 to 4 days. I typically wash my hair every 3 days unless I've had to upload a can of hairspray on it due to wind and I'll wash that out as soon as I return home.
Frizz Ease and Biosilk are my two go-to’s for my coarse, fine, curly hair. As Gabi stated regarding Frizz Ease, they can be used before blow drying and on dry hair. Have been using both for over 30 years.
Briogeo was like glue in my hair. Glad to know I also wasn't using the Color Wow wrong, did ok but didn't hold.
Frizz Ease has been around FOREVER, I used it when it first came out in the 90's. Went to a short cut for about 25 years. Have since grown out and back to fighting the frizz.
Looks like I'm going back to the OG!!!
I'm very happy with John Frieda's Frizz ease.
I’ve used frizz ease serum for years. I’m glad to see that it is the fave. I love it! Now I need recommendations for shampoo conditioners for frizzy hair! Thanks!
I was super surprised by it for sure. Do you find it lasts a while for you? Or do you go through the bottle quickly? The price per ounce is my big question with it.
@@justinhickox I use exactly one pump after every wash and it lasts for a very long time
@@Florida_Mollie Great to hear!
Thank you so much to u both for this video!!! I have terribly frizzy hair in any kind of humidity no matter what hair products im using. Im always searching for better frizz control. I don't think ive tried that frizz ease so I'm excited to check it out.
Vivo en Asunción Paraguay. 80% de humedad todo el año. Yo uso el de color wow y me funciona 10 puntos !!!!! Lo amo y lo volvería a comprar mil veces más
Great to know, I've tried so many products to control frizz because my hair hates the humidity.
What a perfect test subject! Gaby did a great job. I honestly rarely need a de frizz product but when I do, I honestly use your Just De-Frizz heat protectant. 😊
She did awesome right! I’m so appreciative of all the work she did. She’s a rockstar. Thanks for trusting my product! I wish it was still in production! We’ll have to figure out a way to bring it back to market.
I love Gabi! ❤
She's awesome right!
@@justinhickoxRight! Oh Canada 🇨🇦
@@justinhickox yep! 🩷
I have 57 yo color treated hair that air dries wavy and frizzy/coarse. ColorWow works for me but wish results had bit more shine, but I will definitely try frizz ease to save $ upfront cuz I dont use it everyday.
I think it might be worth a shot. Make sure to come back and let us know what you think!
OK, this is a really good series and I’m really on board for it. Can’t wait until you test shampoos and conditioners for different types of hair, is that even possible? Keep up the great work.
Thank you for this! I am going to stay with the frizz ease - not sure how much better the others would work on my hair as I have thick coarse hair, but I will follow your and Gabi’s suggestions
Hey! Thank you so much for the trust! Thick coarse hair, if you are flat ironing it smooth and straight (not looking for much volume) you may get great results from the Color WOW as well. Could be worth a try at some point.
Thank you for listening to me and using a control to your experiment. I had commented about this on your video a few days ago.
This video was SO HELPFUL!!!!
Whatsup lady! Thanks for hangin out today! Gabi killed it right! Dionna was talking all about your live video she watched a few days ago and how great it was!
Nikki, do you have frizzy hair?
I recently bought the Color Wow. I thought I was doing something wrong, but after this, I know I didn't! Thanks, and I love Gabi!
I use oil on dry hair. Wash after 5 days. I have grey curly color treated hair. My favorite anti frizz product at this time is leave in conditioner and Proclaim glossing polish from Sally’s Beauty. The glossing polish helps when I heat style and air dry. I just don’t want to spend a lot on products. I did buy Moroccan oil and that was a splurge. Thanks for the review.
I really like this channel. These videos are extremely helpful. Thank you, Justin!
Interesting!! I live on an island and it can get really humid in the summer. If I flat iron my hair and go out in the humidity, it’s full on curly pretty quick no matter what I use. I’ve gotten to the point of just putting it up to get it out of my face😆
I have very thick curly hair that I blow out on a regular basis. Have tried every frizz product out there and the one that works the best is Redkens Frizz Dismiss. Amazing product!
Would love to see some fragrance free products since I'm allergic to fragrance mix.
as we are heading into dryer weather, any recommendations on anti-static products?
Hello from central Texas, where it's often very hot and VERY humid. Gabi is right about the sweat and humidity, which is exactly what happens when I'm outside and it's 90 degreees and 85% humidity with a dew point of 54 degrees and I've got to carry my groceries up the stairs. Avoiding humidity frizz is a constant struggle here. You are right, it's more of a system, not a single product. I wear my wavy hair wavy all the time, no round brush, no flat iron. My hero product is Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Heat and Humidity Gel (whew, what a name) in the Stronger Hold version. The film forming copolymer and polyquarterniums really help keep the huimidity frizz at bay. I generally don't use silicones in my routine, but when I really need to keep my hair from frizzing, I do use a silicone-based serum like the Frizz Ease along with the gel.
I used to use the briogeo. I have very fine hair and now that I pay more attention (and found things that do work!) I notice SO many products weigh my hair down. The past couple years I have found better luck with the bumble and bumble b6. One of my problems with the briogeo is that when blow drying my hair is harder to get thru with my brush and pulls more than the b6 - and I already have issues with hair loss. I am trying out the Wow product but haven’t used it much. The other thing i had sitting in my cabinet for like a year before trying it (it came in a Sephora try pack) was IGK good behavior - when I finally tried it I was so impressed. I don’t use it all the time but if I notice my hair is frizzier than normal I spray that on my ends after styling and am really impressed. I live in South Carolina - so it’s a struggle.
If you want to blow all the mentioned products out of the way, try Kevin Murphy "Smooth.Again". I have very curly, fine and frizz prone hair and I have fought frizz for 40 years. I have tried tons of products, including several you tested here, and this is the best so far. I actually use the Kevin Murphy Smooth.Again shampoo, conditioner and leave in Smoothing lotion; but I have used the leave in on it's with other shampoos many times and it works great. I liked the Virtue best before using this and still like it but this is better. If I had just washed and blown dry my hair and then used a flat iron and got in that steamy room my hair would have looked like a bush.
Did you see the comment about yours she said that Kevin Murphy smooth again products for amazing and worked a lot better than anything shown in this video
@@BethAnn-o6h I didn't see the comment and could not find when I looked. Who commented? By the way it is a great product.
Great content, Justin!!!…so nice of Gabi to help you out!!!…much love and appreciation to you!💜💜💜💜💜💜
Rusk Anti-friz Serum works on my natural wavy hair that loves to friz in wet humid weather.
You need me and my frizzy wavy hair to do this test!
Have you tried any of these products?
@@justinhickoxI've tried Color wow. It kinda freaked me out that it said it stayed in for more than one washing. Is that bad for your hair?
I’ve just posted a comment saying how mine clumps together like cotton wool, it’s the bane of my life 😂
I really enjoy your channel & has provided me with lots of useful info. I was wondering if you could discuss hair routine & products for grey hair with dandruff. Thanks
My hair is course and curly, but has always responded really well to product, blow dries beautifully and has always stayed silly and smooth after styling. But as of late, nothing has staved away the frizz. It’s so bad that after blow drying AND flat ironing, it starts to puff up and frizz all on its own, without even stepping outside, let alone sitting in a steamed room. I haven’t used Frizz Ease in many, many years, but will now give it a shot again.
*Silky and smooth.
I use Frizz Buster by Fantasia. I'm a frizz monster & it really works. Been using it for over 20 yrs.
I have really been enjoying your videos. I've had my hair cut in a bob for many years because it does suit me. For the past 14 years it's been in what m my stylist called an inverted bob and it was so easy to care for and I got many compliments on the style and the color. I let my natural gray color grow in way before our worked went upsidedown.
Now I'm dealing with curly hair. It was getting harder to straighten and I decided to let it go natural again.
How about a video to find the best curling products. That might be helpful to many of us.
Thanks for all the helpful advice you give.
This e actly why i get a keatin treatment every spring. Once the hunidity season is about to hit. It doesnt straighten my, but once i dry my natural curly hair the keratin treatment seals my hair in the straight manner i dried it in even humidity. As long as i dont get my hair WET it will remain mostly straighten. I had an old tibe of frizz ease but i dont remember liking it. It could have been inproved since i originally bought it.
Anyway. I will never be without my keratin treatment in soring, sumner or early fall. It usually last 5 months. Ut is pricey $300 but worth every bit of what i spend. Thats my 2 cents worth! But great show!!!
Do you mind saying which treatment you get? I have had the Brazilian blowout and Maria tectiera, and a couple others that I don't even remember the names of and most recently I went to Ulta and had their smoothing treatment added on along with my color and it did not do a thing at all. I also went to a salon while I was working as a travel nurse and again I was supposed to have a Brazilian blowout and it did not work so I'm guessing she did not even use the product she claimed she was going to use ,
@Katie-vy5rd I have been getting Cezanne Keratin treatments and they have been working better than any other keratin treatments I've had. Plus less harsh on my hair. Keratin always made my hair feel waxy before.
I have very long hair and used the Color Wow Extra Strength and made sure to add as much as possible on towel dried hair and than blow dried with tension. I tested it out for 5 days straight. House cleaning, gardening etc in hot humid weather. Worked like a champ! You have to follow the directions and you can wash your hair I’d say once or twice afterwards before you’d need to add more product. I did this with a sample size before committing. I was able to get two rounds out of the sample size but I washed my hair about 2 times in between uses. Hope this helps! ❤ Ps.. I have a lot of thin curly wavy hair but I straighten it.
This explains why my hair is always frizzy on the back of my head by my neck. I have thick hair and live in FL so I’m always hot
When I don’t want to fuss with my hair or it’s a rainy or snowy day, I wear a topper…the hair on my toppers is usually remy human hair…it never frizzes…so I can put on a small base topper, go do my day and not worry about hair frizzing. My hair frizzes sooooooooo easily..i may try Frizz Ease..just for kicks!
That’s a great idea! I honestly never thought about that. Thanks for sharing!
Hope it works for you but never ever works for me I do not like Frizz Ease but maybe you will or maybe everyone else does it did nothing for me except weigh my hair down and make it look worse
@@BethAnn-o6h that’s why I love toppers or other hair pieces(not wigs)…no fuss on humid days .. or windy days!
Fun coincidence. I ordered a bottle of 'Color Wow' a couple weeks ago. Only used it once, though, as I don't straighten my shoulder length (thick, dense, wavy) hair very often.
For me the result was ok... definitely not worth the price difference to my random drugstore 'straightening milk' (something L'Oreal in a pink bottle, might be different from the US product). The hair looked fine after styling it. But it had reverted back to it's slightly wavy, tips curled up state by next morning. As it always does. Can't speak to frizz protection, as my hair isn't very frizz prone and loves high humidity. It's the weirdest thing. My hair gets bushy and frizzy from dry air. Basically only ever if I'm in a building with air conditioning. High humidity makes my hair smooth and shiny and well behaved. I've always wondered, why that is.
But anyways. I read some reviews, that you really have to saturate the hair with the Color Wow, for it to work properly. I didn't quite do that, although I did partition it and carefully sprayed it strand by strand.
I'll for sure repeat the experiment with more product soon, but I don't think, it's a candidate for repurchase for me.
I have thick naturally curly hair and use the color wow myself recently and it still was kind of big for lack of a better word and stiff looking I did not care for the finished look and I too did the same as you did just saturating the pieces as I went and frankly I thought maybe somebody did a dirty and maybe swapped it out for water because it's had no sense had no texture or no feel to it I'm fine with it being sent free cuz I have so many allergies and asthma but it just seemed like water to me
Thank you for the comparisons. I've been searching for help with my fly aways due to grey hair. Nothing holds them in place. 😢
Just regular styling gel works for that. Get one that is alcohol free to not dry out the hair even more. If it's only a few hairstrands that stand up you can just put the gel on them (on dry hair!) and push them down and blowdry on the lowest airflow speed but with high heat to set the gel. It will hold all day if you don't touch it during the day. If more than a few, you can use a bigger amount and spread it out over your hair and blowdry it. It's important to use a low airflow setting to keep the hair where you want it and just use the heat to dry the gel. I used this method all the time when I wanted "straight" hair years ago. Nowadays I wear it naturally curly and couldn't be happier.
Two of my favorites in the same video? What a treat! 😀
I've been using Frizz Ease for years. Helps with frizz, smoothing broken ends. Love it! A little dab will do ya.
Great video. I really enjoyed it.
Thank you for adding the control subject!
Can you please do a review on Brazilian blow out process and keratin one? And the cons and pros.
Good project. Thanks for all the work Gabby.
I may need to give Frizz Ease another try.
Definitely worth it I think!
It NEVER WORKED for me I NEED to be the test subject here my hair frizzws no matter what product I use I despise my hair!!
Loved this surprise collab!!!!!!!!!
I'm in my 70's and have medium length, fine, thin hair, which will frizz even though I live in a dry climate. Color Wow Dream Coat was a miracle for my hair! My hair is not thick and coarse as you suggested, so apparently more like Gabi's. Not sure why it didn't work on her because mine has never looked better!!
I live in the south where humidity is a constant issue for my fine textured wavy/frizzy hair. Frizz-ease doesn't work on my hair and Color WOW actually it worse than using nothing. I've spent a fortune trying different products. At present I'm getting decent results with L'ange Glass Hair and a Kenra anti-humidity hairspray. Not infallible, but better than most.
If you read the directions for the Color Wow Dream Coat it states that it only needs to be used every 3 to 4 shampoos. With that in mind it makes it very affordable. Didn’t read all the comments so don’t know if anyone else commented on this.
Wow, thanks to you and especially to Gaby for a great video.
Too funny, Frizz Ease FTW. (BTW, with coupons and sales, you can get great deals on their stuff) So far, my best humidity-resistant formula is to use their serum, then use their 3 Days Straight and heat style after blow drying.
Best of all, though, is that fall is here and the humidity has dropped and now all my product combos are phenomenal.
Fun fact: Color Wow and Frizz Ease were both developed by Gail Federici.
I've tried Color Wow Dream Coat, and my beef is that the directions are to use it on its own and it's just not moisturizing enough for my hair. I'm not "wowed" enough to invest in the add-ons that might make it work a little better for me.
Thank you! Love this insight! I actually had the exact same gripe about Color Wow and using other products with it. It felt very limiting to me and I was worried that the reason you weren't supposed to may be that it uses a type of silicone that reacts with some other products and makes them feel really gummy in the hair. If so, that could also potentially build up in hair leaving hair flat and dull over time. Not sure off that's the case but it was the first thing that came to mind.
I have some Color Wow and the label says it lasts through several washings. So the product would still be in the hair on subsequent product testings, but oh well , I’ll try some out on my own hair. But thanks for the info!
DHC has a product after bath and it works well for me. I just put it on the tips in a slight manner
Great video-it brings up more questions, though. First of all, curl is not frizz. Frizz is when hair strands absorb water and poof up. Not all curls frizz. LOL, you can tell I'm not a professional hairdresser. But I do have curly, wavy hair. I use Frizz Ease styling serum, and it's good. I will try the serum. I need height so a lot of products weight the top of my hair down, but if I don't use then my hair frizzes. How do I not weigh my hair down and not get frizz?
I use the color wow and they suggest flat ironing to increase better results, and it works so good on my fine hair with the flat iron. Without the flat iron it’s not as good😢
Great video & always learn something!
Glam Girl brought me here, Although I’m a Subscriber to your Fabulous hair Advice! 🎉
Great Job, Gabi did.. Tnx🎉
I don't straighten mine and I live in the south, but I find a hair gel works pretty well. Does it matter what type of shampoo that you use though? I find the no-frizz shampoos don't really clean my hair.
Frizz ease has been my go to for probably 15 years now 🎉
So what are the differences between WOW extra large and WOW raise the roof?
Can you do a product review for heat protection?
What about the Color Wow Youth Juice? This product just popped up in my feed. I have bad thinning and shedding but if this Youth Juice was such a miracle I would have heard about it before now! Any thoughts on this product and its ingredients? Thank you - would love to get your feedback!
Justin, this video was super helpful! But what happened to your Just De-Frizz product? I purchased it last year and it’s the best product ever! Now it’s not on your website. I was only able to find it off amazon like three months ago
I live in Florida where the humidity and heat in general takes a huge toll on my hair which is course and not straight at all I just wasted alot of $ buying the Color Wow and I was highly disappointed!.Yes I first tried the over the counter Frizz control products with no results in taming this hair of mind This weather here is disgusting if you don't have naturally straight hair and need to resort to wearing a ponytail most of the time!
Hi, I have watched numerous videos that have cemented my discussion to get a long angeled bob with layers. Your videos on how to style really don’t seem to apply to my hair texture. I have frizzy hair and if I followed your… my hair would feel smooth it could feel “crunchy”. Any chance for a non-straight hair styling tutorial? Spanish wavy can be crispy and can be smooth a luscious hair Chica :-)
Interesting. I’d love to see how they work for those of us with wavy to curly hair but don’t straighten it.
I live in the PNW where humidity is high and it rains a lot. I’ve never had any luck from any of the anti-frizz products. Not even stuff made for curls like the Ouidad climate control line.
Just regular styling gel (not wax!) works for that. Put it onto dry hair on the parts where you need it, when you're satisfyed with how the curls look and won't touch it anymore. Then you blowdry the gel on the lowest airflow to set the gel. This will hold all day if you keep your hands out of your hair.
Can show how to refresh your hair the next day or 2 after a shampoo? PLEEZ!
Especially short hair dos
Is there an app or place where you can try different hairstyles and hair color?
Gabbi !!! You are a Hero
you, go girl, Gabby!!!
J’aime beaucoup cette vidéo 🙏🏽
I would have like to see how they worked on curly hair that is defused....
Love these videos
Us Canadians always getting the short end of the stick. ;) I hope Gabi got to keep all the products!
Hahahahaahahaha!! I did! Justin and Dionna gifted me all of them! 🇨🇦 🍁 🦫
@@GlamGirlGabi Atta girl!
You didn't try Sabino Moisture Block. It's absolutely the BEST!
Thanks!
My issue is so I didn’t blow dry, my top layer is super frizzy when I don’t. It had static. I put an oil on and it was more staticky! I tried matrix hair food oil to tame it. Nope. Static. I don’t want to have to blow dry to get that top layer to stop frizzing out when I don’t blow dry. Any suggestions? I do use Puerology leave in conditioner.
I LOVE Gaby and Frizz Ease LOL!
You have to flat iron these products in. Back in the 90s, before flat irons were common, one rainy day I did a roller set to straighten my hair and then went out for the night. I had an umbrella so at no point did water touch my hair directly, but the 100 percent humidity did all night. When I got back home and saw myself in the mirror my hair had completely reverted to my natural curls (3B curls) as if I did not spend 2 hours rolling up my hair and sitting under a dryer. Fast forward to the late 2000s when I used a silicone serum and flat ironed my hair pin straight, I went out on another rainy night. Like before I had an umbrella and no water directly touched my hair, only the ambient humidity. My hair stayed straight the whole time. Only parts of the hairline started to wave up, and they didnt even get curly, only slightly wavy. For me roller sets or blow dries on their own are never enough to keep my hair from reverting, I have to use silicone, and use a flat iron. I have always only used beauty supply store silicone serum brands as well.
That's why silicone is banned on the Curly Girl Method. It kills the curls. If you want lushious curls you can not use products containing silicone. Since I stopped using silicone (in any products on my hair), my hair curled up beautifully, like fairytale prinsess hair with pretty ringlets you'll see in storybooks. I'll never fight my curls or fry them again. I get so many compliments and stares. Guys especially love it. I don't understand why people don't embrace their curls instead of frying them off...
@@tessltaekook8501 Indeed. I wear my hair natural most of the time and rarely heat style it. If you have not tried using steam I highly recommend it. You can steam in hair masks for deep conditioning and you can steam your curls dry to refresh them. When I steam my curls they all curl up to their perfect natural pattern, I get great volume, definition, and shine. Make sure you have enough styling product in your hair before you steam it or you will get frizz.
Hey, this might sound like an odd request but last week at the hairstylist, I showed her a picture and asked do you think I could have this style, would it work? And she said, no, the primary reason is you don't own a blow dryer and it needs one for the front. (It was choppy short bob with long framing bangs, you can see the exact haircut if you Google image search, Sophie thatcher bob haircut, it's the first image), I have seemingly straight, thin, fine hair she says is actually not straight but has volume -although I can't tell the difference to be honest 🤷🏻). Can you make a video explaining what using a blow dryer vs straight or curling iron, would make? It's not that I'm opposed to using tools or product, I just haven't figured out what the purpose is when I'm not looking for mega volume or hair straightening? (Instead she gave me a bob with side swept bangs, blow dried it, it's a week later, I've washed it and finger combed it and honestly it looks the same, so why should I be using a blow dryer? Please please explain. I haven't touched a hair tool since those Zzzz crimpers in high school (if you don't remember them ask your wife!)
Oh my avatar is the side of my hair, undyed, no hair tools. if that helps.
Can you please try this experiment again with very high porosity hair?
My hair is extremely frizzy because of the high porosity, so poofs even without going outside, and regardless of the weather, and even professionals at the salon can’t prevent my hair from frizzing after doing it, because it’s porosity is that high.
Wig hair is always low porosity, because no one will buy frizzy hair, and my hair is A LOT frizzier than Gabi’s.
You can't compare her hair to anyone else's. age, genes, hair type all are factors. I have dry frizzy hair. I've tried everything on the market. They all work great in no humidity, but the minute you encounter rain, or fog, or humidity in general, back to frizzy. Also, it depends on what type of shampoo, conditioner, and yes even the water in your house/area. Wig hair is not the same as human hair. I have found the best way to combat my frizzy hair is to hot roll it after it is dry.
You should have included Olaplex. It’s the best.
