Thanks for this video and being mindful of those of us on a budget. I’ve found Giovanni L.A. Hold gel give one of the tightest, strongest holds ever. It’s really sticky but you can scrunch it out. I bought it at Whole Foods Market on sale for $5.99. Normally around $8.99. Awesome drugstore/grocery store price!

Okay so I just found your channel…. and I was up until 1am watching your videos and taking notes! I just love how informational you are and how you take the time to really break it down for beginners and people who may not be as informed. All the big curly girl KZbinrs never teach me like this! Every video is in my watch later I think I’ve finally learned how to deal with my curls 😂❤️ thank you!!!!!

[@GenaMarie]

Aw I’m so happy to hear! More resources and notes are on genamarie.co too for each video ☺️

[@stephlandis6073]

@@GenaMarie I was wondering if you’d consider making a video about different curly hairstyles to do that aren’t so damaging. Since my curls are still damaged I’m not confident in leaving them down, but found that tight buns and a lot of styles stretch them out! Thanks!

I have been trying out the Hask Curl Care and have really liked it! So far I’ve just done the shampoo, conditioner, and cream, but they do a great job with cleaning, slip, and definition. I layer the Not Your Mother’s mousse on top and I have loved the results. That would be a great brand to review since they are available at drugstores and only $7 each!

[@GenaMarie]

I need to try that brand!

[@look2Jesus]

LOVE this Dove line. So far, they've been the products my hair is most happy with. I've even liked it better then the expensive hair lines! Beautiful results♥️

[@catdogdogcat3481]

Your hair looks great! Also appreciate the easy to find drugstore brands. It’s a frizzy time of year. Very helpful

[@GenaMarie]

Yes! Thank you!

[@Detroit-Jen]

I use this Dove Gel and it’s great. It’s my favorite gel so far

[@GenaMarie]

Me too!

[@melaniewebster]

I did the smasters technique with the Dove gel yesterday & it's probably the best washday I've had in a while. That was the only new product I used in the routine so the results came from the gel. It offered some curl enhancement & made my hair so shiny & bouncy!

[@GenaMarie]

Same!! 🙌🏼

[@amyschultz7103]

The dove shampoo is my go to, love it. I have bought this gel but haven’t used it yet. Trying to use up the plethora of other gels first

[@susanh1205]

My hair has been a frizz bomb this summer. It’s okay on wash day but after that forget it. I haven’t been able to fix it for very long. Thanks for this video I am definitely trying the Dove gel!

[@lagatita1623]

Have you tried silk bonnet or even hair net?

[@marthajohnson3250]

Me tooooooo. I just learned to face the fact that my hair is just frizzy :/

[@gaylenballard4322]

Thank you! I can't wait to try this!! Once I diffuse my hair to almost dry I pit the comb/pick attachment and gently lift/dry my roots and crown areas. It has worked amazing and no more root clips for me!

[@GenaMarie]

Great tip!

[@curlyandstrong6798]

Gena i love all your videos. I was wondering if you could make a video on how to properly balance a hair routine for fine 3b ,3c medium density, low porosity hair. And maybe products suggestions. 😊

[@shanthapadmavathi5869]

Anything gena says or recommends, it always frekin works so well for me... Maybe we have a similar type or something... Her videos are always so informative and helpful... Lovd u loads hunnn!! 💖💖 Keep going ✨✨

[@GenaMarie]

Aw thank you!

[@elizabethcarroll8526]

Completely off-topic, but I love your lipstick/gloss color! I'm super pale with a pink undertone, but I think I could rock that color, too! I really want to try the Dove gel! I normally stay away from glycerin, but I know you are in a similar humid summertime environment, so I know the gel has to be super awesome!

[@GenaMarie]

Thank you! It's this one from Physicians Formula in "Pillow Talk": rstyle.me/+oHOsOFttC0-PccNiB1gD4g Issues with glycerin are usually due to the product not having enough hold or not have humidity-blocking ingredients paired with it, which is why I love this gel because it has both holding ingredients and polyquats to counteract the effects of glycerin.

[@elizabethcarroll8526]

@@GenaMarie thank you so much!!! Definitely going to get the gel on my next grocery shopping trip! I'm getting back into makeup after only wearing mascara for the last year and a half because of COVID and masks 😂

[@GenaMarie]

Haha same!! I only wear it for filming once a week 🤣

[@shereebrooks5552]

This is another great video! Seems like all your videos cover my same struggles and always learning something new from you! I’ve done so much trial and error past 4 months and have found all Giovanni works great for me! After seeing your results I am definitely going to try the Dove gel due to extreme humidity where I live in Texas! Thank you again for your super helpful videos💕

[@GenaMarie]

So glad to hear it’s helped! The Giovanni gel made my hair so dry and brittle. This Dove gel is much more moisturizing and easier to apply

[@josiemendoza5974]

Your hair always looks great!🤩

[@GenaMarie]

Thank you!

[@marthalamontagne7590]

Gena! I also try this combo and I really like it! My hair like this two products. Thank you for sharing!!

[@jackieb.7368]

I love this. I hope it works for my unruly frizzy hair. Can’t find the right products yet. Thanks !!!!

[@GenaMarie]

These are worth a try! I love the gel the most ❤️

[@mnn6494]

Thanks for the suggestions! I am definitely going to search for those products today.

[@seerchannah102]

I ordered my towel. I can’t wait to try it. I have devacurl’s microfiber towel and it can leave my hair frizzy.

[@GenaMarie]

Yay! The Hair Repear towels are great because they're flat-weave cotton, which is much better than microfiber which has little fibers that snag

[@margaritaroa8826]

I love your ideas for curly hair.

[@Italianqueen1966]

Thank you for this video!!

[@StormyDay]

I’ve never seen the white hairrepear towel! I definitely don’t have low density in the top back but I color it and it looks low density because of the grey coming through so I’m always careful about covering that back area-and that video you did about covering it was the very first video of yours I saw!! 😍

[@GenaMarie]

Aw glad it was helpful! And yes, they have black and white towels 🤗

[@melissaandrews1603]

Thank you 🙏

Thank you so much!!

[@rhondaault6464]

Always love your videos. I really like your top, can I ask where you shop for tops?

[@GenaMarie]

Thank you! This one is pretty old from Kohl’s. I usually shop TJMaxx, Amazon, American Eagle or Target ☺️

[@rhondaault434]

@@GenaMarie Thank you

[@brienethefox853]

Love this routine! Do you have any cream suggestions that are affordable and protein-free that pair well with this gel? Thanks!

[@emilyk.michael5961]

Thank you for this demo. I have been interested in trying the new Amplified Texture products. Have you tried any of Tresseme's Pro Pure line? I used to enjoy their shampoo and mousse and have been curious about their new stuff.

[@GenaMarie]

Not yet! this gel is one of the only silicone-free products from the line btw

[@florl.delgado4093]

Cool. Your hair is longer! 😄

[@poonamgarodia7943]

First to comment!!Yayyyy!!!!!😄😄😄

[@courtneyparris3500]

Do you recommend using Dove shampoo and conditioner?

[@GenaMarie]

I like their Hair Therapy shampoo but their conditioners are not silicone free. Here’s the shampoo rstyle.me/cz-n/fkx5buvz6w

[@zoecross8426]

Hello does the gel contain protein? Thanks

[@GenaMarie]

Nope! The cream does

[@loriskillman2580]

Are both of these products natural? Also are they good for medium fine gray curls? I need a couple of frizz free products.

[@GenaMarie]

The Hairitage products are more on the natural side. Both do not have silicone or waxes. Not all products from both lines are silicone free, but these are. Both have fragrances

[@loriskillman2580]

@@GenaMarie Thank you! 😊

[@Palmundo91]

They are most definitely not natural. So nice they seem decent though which is cool Remember, no way a KZbinr can say if products will work for and keep in mind sponsored content. My sister has fine gray wavy hair and her stylist got her hair looking really smooth while preserving her waves & calming her stubborn grays. She was following a bunch of TikTok and KZbin/IG advice that was all wrong for me. Ask your stylist to analyze what would be best 😊

[@staceypetro257]

I also struggle with taming my grey curls. I haven't found a knowledgeable stylist in my area.

[@loriskillman2580]

@@staceypetro257 I started using Cocunat products, I really like them. They're pricey, but they're all natural. I'm always good until I go out in the humidity. I finally got a haircut since the pandemic maybe a month ago. Where the old dye was, I had no frizz but I'm keeping it real. I need good, all natural no frizz gel maybe.

[@snowflakes215]

I don’t like the smell of the gel. If I don’t like a smell of a product I just can’t use it …was bummed

[@GenaMarie]

Yeah, it is floral smelling

[@lagatita1623]

I cant use Pillow soft curls because of the smell
