With having fine hair myself, I went and bought the Label M thickening tonic... Im always massively sceptical about these things... But bloody hell! It actually works. May also have to buy the Aveda one too out of curiosity now. Thanks for your advice in the video Robin.
Robin, thanks for the great review of these two thickening tonics. I plan to try both. Because of your comparison of these products, I'm going to order Aveda Thickening Tonic now.
@@dryricefields403 I really like Aveda thickening tonic. It gives my hair a nice hold with out making it too stiff. A little bit goes a long way for me. It works better for me than the Moroccanoil texture clay I was using before. My hair is fine and these days a bit longer because of the difficulties created by coronavirus. If you want a little more control after applying Aveda, give your hair just a touch of hair spray. My wife likes using Aveda thickening tonic too. I have the 3.4 oz. spray bottle. Hope this helps.
@@61dodgelancer thanks for the quick response man, my hair has always been flat and straight so hopefully I can get that thick look and hold for my hair. I've got an order coming in soon so judging from your response I won't regret it
Aveda thickening tonic is the best prestyler for my thin hair.. its flexible not harden but provide amount of structure and thick healthy look to my hair and for support the hold of post styler like odouds matte paste.. hard to find Label m in my country. Thankyou Robin...God bless stay safe and healthy
I've never used Label M but Aveda works wonderfully for me. My favorite is the Rosemary Mint shampoo :). Robiiin, I totally like the music you use for this new era of videos. You reinvented yourself completely! Keep up the great work!
Thank you Robin, I enjoy watching your posts especially as an aspiring hairdresser. I think paying close attention to a very selective and discerning customer is as important to my education as following great hairstylists. I would say one factor that you leave off the table, but does matter to a lot of people, myself included, is the effect on the environment. Aveda makes a great effort of creating great products that don't destroy our air, water and landfills. Thanks again, Leslie from California
boxy bottles are great. You can tightly stack them on shelf next to each other and they dont move all over the place when you reach for the one in the middle
I use the Aveda thickening tonic and I LOVE it!! To be fair, though, I used to work for them and I believe in the products!! We have similar hairstyles and I get similar results!! GREAT video!! Also, check out their skincare products!!
Excellent video and series Robin. I look forward to more! The point that you make about the categories not being equally weighted is exactly what I commented on your previous brand battle video. I'm glad that you considered and mentioned it.
Thanks for the tip. My hair is exactly like yours and I now use label m thickening tonic. It gives my hair brilliant volume and looks brilliant when styled now :)
Great video as usual! How big is the difference when using a good quality thickening tonic? As a guy with fine hair, but lots of it, sometimes after a while my hairs start forming large strands and it looks like "empty spots"? I can't really explain it.. You're approaching a 100k subs too! that's amazing!
Hi Robin! Thanks for a great video.. Have you ever tried Kerastase volume expansion spray? I'm almost finishing it and wandering if those guys you presented today are better or should I stick with this one?? Thx!
Hey Robin..need your help please! I am loosing hair with scalp showing- which product is better at giving dense appearance and volume? Aveda or Black Mist from Black Label grooming? Great Vids!
You MUST try Chad Michael products. Shampoo Conditioner, pomade, gel, clay, cream. These products are engineered and not private labeled. BEST OF THE BEST!
Well, I'd check the ingredients list too. If one contains such ingredients as Alcohol Denat., Propylene glycol, Linalool, Coumarin and other mostly commercial (although not so good for the hair) stuff for creating fast results whilst adding a synthetical scent but pleasing (for mass usage) scent then I'd go with the more natural one.
Can you do a brand battle on your two favorite mousse? I found a really big difference between my argan oil mousses and my tresemme mousse. Like weight for argan oil is heavier and such.
How can I use this as a prestyler?? By the time I used the aveda tonic and blow dry it, I can't put any mousse on (requires damp hair) so what am I supposed to use after?
Could you review Prejume Wax (Level 3 and/or 5) please? I'm curious to know how it stacks up against claymation in your opinion. Out of many waxes I've used that one performs very well. You actuallly convinced me to purchase claymation, so let's see how that goes!
Robin can you please help me to choose the right one and workable shampoo and conditioner for dry and freezy hairs which could be easily available in india.
Hey Robin was just wondering if I’m already using a thickening shampoo for example from nioxin is it still good to use a thickening pre styler like these ones?
Could you also do a Grandfathers Go To and review a few old school products like Brylcream or Californian Poppy that old men seem to love? They must have something going for them if they have been available for so long.
Hey Robin, where did you get that blue shirt? It looks really nice! Not sure what you'd pair it with trousers-wise though. Also if you fancy being my guinea pig, please put Wella Texture Touch Reworkable Clay against something else. Can't find any decent videos on that product here :(
By Vilain VS Hanz de Fuko (Claymation vs Gold Digger) I am curious how these 2 products work especially on your type of hair, because mine is similar to yours.
Robin James they are very bad. They've just done very well in getting they're product out there and selling it well but actually you can get the equivalent in "superdrug'" for £2
Robin :D your videos are amazing man. Love that. I had one question, can I use that as pre styler product every time? Could you make a brand battle between hair oil? Between Arganoil and Moroccanoil?
Robin, I'm planning on growing out my hair to about 8 inches, but I want to make sure it still looks nice. I have fine hair like yours, so do you have any tips so it looks alright?
hair health is really important, look into buying higher end shampoos and condtioners with argan/morrocian oils (and maybe some essencial vitamins) avoid damaging your hair, as hair damage can change growth rates in your hair. 8 inches is a lot of hair, so i'd get a staggared length from the back to the front (if you have a disconnected undercut, or an undercut of any sort) so your hair could be a little easier to style.
It is a great idea of yours Robin. The battle of the brands genius. I don't need a thickening tonic but still love the vid and being surprised by the outcomes ... Keep up the great work Robin.
Yeah I did, it was in your budget products video. :-) should have mentioned that I mean the "beach matte", not that strange orange one (that I have tried as well and I hate it too).
Robin James haha cool 😎. I was just recommending in another comment the Oribe (pronounced Orbey), rough luxury moulding wax, based on good feedback on the SpaceNk website. 🤘🏻
Ok Robin I need serious help... I asked for cut and told him to "keep" it on top 6 inches in front, 5 in the middle, 4 in the back... And I told him to make my sides a 1. I showed him picture of you also... I came out with a shaved head... How do I grow it out I'm literally crying at how much hair I lost haha
If you showed to your barber the picture and he still got it wrong you need to get another barber/stylist... If you want your hair to grow fast use ricin oil, it is amazing for hair growth !
True. Actually, Robin I have a video idea I think most people agree. Can you do a video about how to deal with wind that mess up my hair easily even if I had some high hold product in? I know hair spray is one way to do it, but I don't want to use it too much as it makes my hair frizzy.

Andy Wall has your gotten thicker by using this product ?? My hair gotten thinner over the years and I’m looking for anything that’ll help.
Isidro Hernandez I’ve used the aveda and it’s just a temporary thickening but it does work. Gives your hair a denser look
Can u say how many month it will last if i use weekly 5 days..... Label M thickening tonic???????
@@Praveenkumar-tx6ze guessing anywhere from 3-6 months, maybe more.

Quality videos every time! SO informative and the amount of effort you put in them is very consistent. Thank you Robin! :)

I'll get through as many as possible.

Should I continue to use this or use mouse.
Late response butt is the amount of volume different and does it last almost all day like a moose ?
Great video as usual!

More talk about the ingredients please Robin, I would love a thickening product that's actually good for the hair
Of course.
Hey Robin..need your help please! I am loosing hair with scalp showing- which product is better at giving dense appearance and volume? Aveda or Black Mist from Black Label grooming? Great Vids!
I've got a product suggestion for you: Tigi Small Talk. In my opinion, it works wonders for your kind of hair.
I have thin straight hair and I want to have a messy textured angular fringe. What products would you reccomend????? I LOVE U
You MUST try Chad Michael products. Shampoo Conditioner, pomade, gel, clay, cream. These products are engineered and not private labeled. BEST OF THE BEST!
I would like to see a video where you talk about fashion, where you usually buy your clothes and what are your fav stores. Nice video, as always. 👍🏼
I like this idea. Will do .
Robin, Please bring back the haul videos. We missed them already!
100,000 subscribers!!! Congratulations Robyn!!
Do a pomade brand battle of your two favorite pomades
Love this new feature. Maybe a face moisture or face wash battle?
Nicee, love the brand battles. You have a very good walk through. Your opinion is always very clean to me. Love the vid!
Thanks Julian
Hi Robin, can you tell me which matte styling product you have used, that has the strongest hold, thanks..
Well, I'd check the ingredients list too. If one contains such ingredients as Alcohol Denat., Propylene glycol, Linalool, Coumarin and other mostly commercial (although not so good for the hair) stuff for creating fast results whilst adding a synthetical scent but pleasing (for mass usage) scent then I'd go with the more natural one.
that one definitley goes to Aveda.
Hi Robin,
Do you comb/brush your hair before you apply any product to it after youve showered, or just let it dry flat and then comb it into place?
Always the best Robin 🙌
Gold digger by vilain vs original by blumaan
What would be your recommendation between Aveda thickening tonic and KM anti Gravity spray for fine thin hair. Please and thank you.
Can you do a brand battle on your two favorite mousse? I found a really big difference between my argan oil mousses and my tresemme mousse. Like weight for argan oil is heavier and such.
How can I use this as a prestyler?? By the time I used the aveda tonic and blow dry it, I can't put any mousse on (requires damp hair) so what am I supposed to use after?
Aveda always smells good, it’s product therapy and what keeps me buying. Aveda always gets the point.

You actuallly convinced me to purchase claymation, so let's see how that goes!
I really want you to compare some kevin murphy wax'es. Gritty bisnuess, and night rider. That would be great!
Looking sharp Robin. Looking very sharp indeed.
Thanks Galdino!
Hi robin! Do you prefer label m or kevin murphyn as brand?
Robin can you please help me to choose the right one and workable shampoo and conditioner for dry and freezy hairs which could be easily available in india.
Do a review on another RUclipsr hair product, Edward Zo “moon fiber”
Hey Robin,
I think you should do the ultimate yt battle by vilain vs Pete and Pedro
Good idea!
Hey Robin was just wondering if I’m already using a thickening shampoo for example from nioxin is it still good to use a thickening pre styler like these ones?
Do these products also work as prestyling sprays such as sea salt ones?
Can you consider doing a Poundland vx Prestige? I often wonder if there are any hidden gems in those really cheap stores.
I had thought about this!
Could you also do a Grandfathers Go To and review a few old school products like Brylcream or Californian Poppy that old men seem to love? They must have something going for them if they have been available for so long.
@RobinJames i love your blue top your wearing were did you get that i have a black one on me here but love the blue one..
Hey Robin, where did you get that blue shirt? It looks really nice! Not sure what you'd pair it with trousers-wise though.
Also if you fancy being my guinea pig, please put Wella Texture Touch Reworkable Clay against something else. Can't find any decent videos on that product here :(
I've got a link to the top in the description. I'm wearing it with straight leg, indigo jeans.
Is it possible for you to do a brand battle between volume mousse as I am unaware which mousse is the best to use?
By Vilain VS Hanz de Fuko (Claymation vs Gold Digger)
I am curious how these 2 products work especially on your type of hair, because mine is similar to yours.
Alex Dragon I'll be getting some By Vilain soon.
Robin James ok, thank you ! :)
Robin James they are very bad. They've just done very well in getting they're product out there and selling it well but actually you can get the equivalent in "superdrug'" for £2
Robin :D your videos are amazing man. Love that. I had one question, can I use that as pre styler product every time? Could you make a brand battle between hair oil? Between Arganoil and Moroccanoil?
I mean this tonic as a pre style products
Can certainly take a look
Have you tried the invati for men? It's often paired with the thickening tonic.
I have it but still to use it. Do you use it?
Robin, I'm planning on growing out my hair to about 8 inches, but I want to make sure it still looks nice. I have fine hair like yours, so do you have any tips so it looks alright?
Chaz Giustina just go watch pretty much any of his other videos

How do those compare to Kevin Murphy Thick Again?
Can you check out Pete and Pedro brand? I've been unsure about them. Nice video!

Hate Got2B and have done Lynx before. Was in a clay video. Have you seen?

Robin, do these products also give heat protection
Sick vid as always Robin , do by vilain vs mister pompadour

Do a cheap budget Brand Battles!
Which products would you like?
I personally don't have any clue on which product is cheap , maybe i live in a cave ":3
Never tried a thickening tonic before, but now I might. My hair can look thin and a little dull sometimes. This could solve that.
💙
It certainly could!
you havent did a review on by vilain powermade
waiting for nxt Thursday...
Me too!
Actually, I think Aveda's packaging looks cheaper with its white cap.
Fair enough. It's the way they feel too!
True. Actually, Robin I have a video idea I think most people agree. Can you do a video about how to deal with wind that mess up my hair easily even if I had some high hold product in? I know hair spray is one way to do it, but I don't want to use it too much as it makes my hair frizzy.
