Hey man! I have thick puffy slightly wavy hair, and I want to achieve a style where it looks like it's wet all day, in kind of a textured fringe style. What hair products from your site would work best? Thank you so much 🙏

[@yanwen1412]

Hello Alex, can i ask about the forte series control clay when will it be available? as i search from the forte website as well as other website, i noticed it been unavailable / out of stock for awhile, when will it be in stock again ?

[@prettyboydinesh1729]

I absolutely love products from Forte. Good on you for doing a breakdown, it helps us to find the right products for styles that we are looking to achieve. Cheers Alex!

[@alexcosta]

There are a lot of hair products so it can be confusing. Happy to help in any way! Also, thank you for trusting Forte 💪🏼

​@@alexcostaWhy did you stop making videos in Spanish? I've seen your old videos, you speaking Spanish was very beautiful

[@gabrielgonzalez2800]

I'm really glad you finally made this video, I've been styling my hair for some time, but I didn't know what each product should be used for. But this really cleared things up. Thanks Alex!

[@SAGE1991]

Make your products available in other countries too like India, shipping from U.S cost more than other products. I want to use it but its too expensive considering it ships from U.S.

[@feasy9510]

Pomade on wet hair is a good look instead of wetting your palms, I see a lot of trendy middle part hairstyles done like that. I also like to use clay and powder together because I got thin straight hair not to much powder ofc. Also I cant live without hairspray to lock everything in. Great video btw. !!!

[@wilmermendoza7752]

U forgot the Argan oil that shit is the best Alex love that product combine with the styling cream.

[@bhanu28driwedi]

I really like about the littlllextra neatfix hair finishing stick is how easy it is to use. It doesn’t make your hair feeling crunchy or hard at all. It dries light and doesn’t make your hair flat or stuck to your head. Even if you apply a bit too much, when you brush your hair after the gel has dried, it doesn’t get flaky! Other gels might hold for that day, but you often need to wash your hair the next day because the gel becomes flaky or your head gets oily and flat from the product. But THIS stick isn’t like that! I can’t imagine going without this as my last finishing touch, whether my hair is in an updo or down, to control my flyaways and frizz! I also used it on my mom, and she loved it too. She experiences less volume in her hair due to thinning as she entered her 70s, and this product helps everything in place without flattening or reducing volume!

[@m_soto32]

My hair is real thick so my go to lately has been the argan oil after the shower, and then 2-3 spritz of the sea salt spray, and then just blow drying it into place. Never fails to get the texture, volume, and a natural look. Very minimal, but solid enough for the heat of summer.

[@alexcosta]

That's a great routine. Perfect for summer

[@aymxn02_]

I swear to God, I was looking for a comment like this! I got my mom's hair genes and it's mad thick!!! I can't figure out which product to go for. I'll try your routine out! I've been growing it out for months now.

What product

[@m_soto32]

@@grady383 The Forte Series Argan Oil, and Forte Series Sea Salt Spray

[@Devilmaygrind]

All these products are great but the hair oil is my favorite Forte product 💯💯 It’s works great and smells AMAZING. Ever since I started using it my hair consistently has a silky smooth feel and shine.✨

[@ByAzura]

Quick tip for clay users: put a medium clump of it in a spoon or piece of foils and run a lighter underneath it for a moment to warm it up. It helps to run it back and forth under the clump for quicker results

[@Raminparvari-pv]

I have very full, dry and frizzy hair, what is the best thing I can use? Can I take a comfortable position and sleep?

[@MrJamesDiamond]

Been using the products for years. My only complaint is the texture clay used to be 100ml (back when the jars were clear), now after the re fresh to the black jars, it’s now just 75ml!

[@javedkhan-oy2gv]

Which product would be good for straight/almost wavy long hairs?? I have started to grow my hairs out and don’t really want them to just stay at one place

[@TheNtg3399]

you should make a light weight smoothing/hydrating prestyler cream. I like to use hair oils alot and I realized its perfect for that super nicely blowdried look and especially with a clay its perfect. But I realized too using a nice light weight minimal hold designed hair cream is perfect for casual days and I dont need as much heat on blow drier as well. I like to lock that look in with either a medium hold cream or even a clay too but the look is so nice. Consider making one!

[@jean-phil]

hmm timestamp for the table to screenshot ? I can't find it somehow

[@MrBlueCap]

What do I use for a textured fringe? I’ve been looking around and getting tons of different answers. I have straight hair that has some texture but mostly lies flat.

[@AC-pu2eh]

My hair is fine, pretty straight but a lot of it. MALE trying to do flow haircut like In this video. But every product I use after a couple hours my hair just gets fluffy looking. What can I use to keep it looking wet or greasy and more heavy so it doesn’t fluff up. Almost as if I didn’t wash it for a week.

[@urikatina4645]

Hi Alex! I use surf paste to style it every day, but I think it's making my hair even wavier (I believe it has some salt spray in it). Should I switch to the paste that you use to achieve a straighter hairstyle?

[@Keteku.]

My son messes with his hair throughout the day. We just did a cut from shoulder length to like a taper fade combover with the top being like 3-4 inches. And they put a product in it that held really well, but it felt really sticky and tacky when he tried to run his fingers through it which he HATED. What should he use?

[@kaynejk9629]

I keep reading that sea salt sprays can dry out and damage hair.. what’s your take on that

[@jackfrost4516]

Not exactly. The sea salt spray is most likely for people with oily hair (their hair tends to have so much moisture that it weights down). If you already have a natural dry hair type, what you need is just a hydrating or moisturizing pre-styling product like the pre-styling cream in the clip. I have normal hair type (not dry not oily), and I notice if I use just a bit of the sea salt spray, my hair will have more volume with acceptable gritty and dryness. So, it depends on how much you apply to your hair too. But like I said, if your hair is already dry, use styling cream or grooming tonic, then you blow dry and style your hair with either clay, paste, or styling powder to balance the moisture and hydration of the styling cream (or grooming tonic).
