Have you tried Giovanni? If so, what is your favorite product?! Read how my day 2 results turned out on my blog: genamarie.co/2021/03/trying-giovanni-curly-products-for-the-fist-time-routine-review-on-high-porosity-hair/
Yes I do like there products. They also have other items called a 2chic line. They have different colored bottles. I have tried all of them lol! I believe the line you tried is available at Trader Joes. All of their lines are at Whole Foods.
I need to apologize. I hope you see this comment. I will try to keep it brief, but essentially, I was a real jerk to you quite some time ago...I was just getting into wearing my natural hair and I left you a pretty shitty comment about your diffusing technique. Fast forward to a year later, and I know now there are so many ways to get good results. Moreover, you have been one of my top go-to influencers that I feel I can really trust and learn from. I see how hard you work on putting out quality, educational content and I REALLY need to thank you and again, I am so sorry for being such an ass to you before. It must be tough to open yourself up to the whole world and have people leave nasty comments like I did after you worked so hard and were just trying to help. I feel really bad about it and since I watch you pretty much every day I figured I should let you know I respect and appreciate what you do and I am sorry. Keep up the amazing work!
@@CALL_ME_BAEkhyuns_bitch thank you. I am not above admitting my faults. Maybe she never even saw my crappy comment nor this one, but to me its the thought that counts! The world is so negative anymore and I really don't want to add to that
Thank you for doing these great videos. I am 71 years of age and FINALLY learning how to take care of my fine curly hair! I have a long way to go and your education is helping very much. Thanks again. I already purchased couple items using your links. Once I decide which hair care products I need to move to, I'll be sure to choose your links. Keep up the good work of helping people of all ages to fall in love with their hair.
I love those Giovanni products! Giovanni Smooth As Silk™ Deep Moisture Shampoo & Conditioner and Direct Leave-In Treatment Conditioner are my go to products!
I love Giovanni products! They are my favorite. I have thin, fine hair like you and I use 4 pumps of the foam for my whole head. I use it with that leave in as a one and done. It dries super fast too, so even though I put my products in soaking wet, this still dries quickly. I use water with the gel and only apply it after my hair is about 50% dry. I use two pea sized amounts for my whole head and glaze and praying hands over my hair.
Hi Gena Marie, you have beautiful curls! 😍 After trying a lot of brands and through trial and error I use nothing else but Giovanni products now. Not only are they very effective, have mostly healthy ingredients, but they do not irritate my sensitive scalp like many others do. I have psoriasis on my scalp.
I love Giovanni! I use the tea tree shampoo and conditioner and the volume line shampoo and conditioner. I also love the deep conditioner that is in the green bottle.
Great Video! Very informative. I've used the Giovanni line for years on my long curly hair, and I absolutely Love it! Especially the Frizz Be Gone! Enjoy! P.S. Your hair turned out Amazing!
I LOVE the 2Chic® Frizz Be Gone™ Smoothing Hair Mask, the Direct Leave-In, Mousse Air-Turbo Charged™ Hair Styling Foam, and L.A. Hold Styling Gel. Been using them for 2+ years.
So far I've only tried the 50:50 conditioner and I love it so much that I decided to read up on all their other products. It has insane amounts of slip (sometimes you need to add a bit more water to your hair before it reaches it's full potential) and is one of the only conditioners I've used where my rinsed out hair feels (almost) exactly as soft as my hair when the conditioner is still in it.
I started cgm a year ago still learning, I bought these products awhile back and notice your thoughts on them are the same mine were! I’m going to start buying the stuff you recommend because I have a feeling our hair is similar, other products you haven’t been crazy about/loved that I’ve tried I also felt the same!
I love these products, especially the mousse. I've heard amazing things about the Tea Tree Triple Treat shampoo, it's boarder line clarifying but can be used every day.
I've been wanting to try this brand myself! I saw someone else on TH-cam who always uses that gel and she said she has to add water also. I don't mind doing that, I usually do that with most gels, and then layer a thinner gel on top for more hold. You're the 1st I've seen talk about the leave in though! Thanks for the review!
I am sooo happy to see this video. Giovanni is my favourite brand, I am based in the UK. I probably own every single item from Giovanni pure organic technology (white/transparent line) apart from Smooth as silk shampoo which contains silicone which is a shame as wanted to try it. My favourite from Giovanni is definitely LA gel, I dilute it with water on the wet hair just like you demotivated 👍my nr 2 is smooth as silk conditioner and tea tree shampoo. I also like vitapro spay leave in conditioner and reconstructor deep conditioner. Just ordered 50/50 shampoo and conditioner and golden wheat shampoo. Can't wait to try it.
I definitely need to try this line! We have a couple online stores here in South Africa that stock the Giovanni products. First on my list to try is the reconstructer!
Gena I have fine curly hair. The curl shape is close to yours. I am early 40's and getting gray in the front which I hate. I wonder if you could do a video on ways to color that's not so damaging. (I tried the root spray and I do not like it because it transfers on everything). Thanks!
I recently saw that Curlsmith has a color line which is essentially hair makeup. It looks interesting. But it will be affected by rain, so that's something to consider.
I appreciate your videos. As a Cosmetologist, I can professionally tell you that everyone has a different method to how they apply their own styling products. (Have you ever paid attention to how your stylist applies them to you?) Generally with this type of gel (the way you like to apply your product) you could dilute it with the leave in conditioner or the styling foam and mix them in your hands.
I’ve used the Giovanni gel - never on dry hair, though. Usually my hair is very wet when I use it, and it works very well. In fact, I have lately been taking a blob (tablespoonful?) of gel, putting it in a small squeeze-type travel bottle, adding some hot water (maybe an ounce?), and shaking it up before I put it in my hands and smooth it over my hair, and it works really well to get even distribution. Thanks for the tip about always touching wet hair with wet hands, and dry hair with dry hands - that is new to me. Your hair looks great!
Wow!! Love how your hair looks , it looks shinny and with volume awesome . I have been using some of their products buy I need to try the foam thanks 🤩
Thank you for showing how you troubleshoot the process with new products! Im confused on a weekly basis when i wash amd style my hair. I can think i did it perfectly, and then day 2 is flat and lifeless.
I'm using Giovanni right now (except for the foam bc I haven't tried it yet) , and I like them alot. With the gel it's very thick and sticky by itself so when I used it alone without any water I would get very strong hold, but my hair would get very matted and tangled with knots. So now what I do is put leave in and put the gel in with water and it got a little better As far as being matted with tangles, knots, and my results came out nice. Great video and I love your channel. 👍☺️
I have tried a few products from Giovanni, the tea tree triple treat shampoo and conditioner, 50:50 clarifying and conditioning shampoo and conditioner, and the smooth as silk conditioner. I thought I had built a good cgm routine with these and other products, but still trying to find the right products. Not going to stop using Giovanni though, they are wonderful!!
I have some turban towels that are too tight. If you wear them backwards with the button at the front they’re much roomier. You can even plop it a bit!
I have tried the tea tree shampoo and found it very drying, I gave it to my husband. I have the smooth as silk conditioner and like that one, both the conditioners can kind of work as co washes too. I have the foam, but like innersense and curlsmith better but it is ok. I haven't tried the leave in or gel yet as I had heard the gel can be hard to mater and I would need combinations that work as my hair loves protein.
I love the direct leave-in and the mousse for my wavy hair. The gel leaves a great cast but I don't always want that. I'll have to try the deep moisture products.
I think I get the cast because I use the gel as a glaze, rather than a scrunch-in. It's on towel-dried hair and I add w/ praying hands then leave it to dry.
I love the Giovanni Triple Tree shampoo. My daughter uses it on her thick biracial hair once a week and does a great job cleaning her hair. Have you done an all brand Ouidad wash routine?
Yeah i tired it that way too but the other end is much more narrow so wasn’t large enough to go over the back of my head, so I figured that’s meant to go in the front.
Hi Gena I use that gel all the time, but I need to add some water to it when using. It does give me good hold, but I use a decent amount. I have long/thick/course/curly hair and this works well for me. I haven't tried the other products though and think I will after seeing how slippy they were. Best wishes. ps I live in Scotland and can easily get these online.
Hi Gina, your results are fab, really love how it turned out. I have tried this line but not got it to work that well for me really, I need to try different methods. These are available at Look Fantastic, I’m not sure if you still have a discount code but worth your subscribers knowing if you do 😊
@@rhondaault6464 Ohh i see what you meant! yes, they were very similar. Both gave a hold and a textured feeling to the hair. I haven't tried the Giovanni foam yet by itself though like I have the Innersense.
I have the Giovanni tea tree shampoo and love it. It's definitely more clarifying and helps with dandruff and dry scalp which I get a lot. Even though it's clarifying I don't find it drying at all and I'm pretty sure it has no sulfates which is awesome
Great video! I have a question. Is the smooth as silk conditioner more of a moisturizing conditioner on its own or does it have enough protein in it to be used as a protein treatment? Is it okay to use weekly as deep conditioning if your hair is not high porosity?
Hm I don’t think rinse out conditioners are strong enough personally to use as a deep conditioner replacement completely. If I need a little extra moisture but don’t have time to full on deep condition, I’ll leave the conditioner on longer. But usually the proteins aren’t as strong as they are in a deep conditioner
I have the same shampoo, conditioner, gel and foam. I bought them for winter time as they are all glycerin free. I like the products but my scalp gets super itchy when I use these products. It’s a shame as they have nice ingredients at a good price.
I've only tried the Tea Tree Triple Treat shampoo and Smooth as Silk conditioner. The conditioner didn't offer much slip. I guess because the shampoo is a bit clarifying? Ohh, I also tried the 2chic Blackberry & Coconut Milk conditioner, that one had more slip than the one listed above. Tonight I tried the Smooth as Silk conditioner as a cowash, it had pretty good slip. 👍 Gena, have you ever tried Harry's Sculpting Gel?
Hi Gena! By any chance did you get to use the Frizz be Gone Serum? If so, what are your thoughts? Thanks for this. I went to Whole Foods and purchased pretty much everything they had. I’m a little bummed that they didn’t have the Leave-in.
Hello beautiful, I do get alot of cast when using the gel. Would you know why? What do you recommend to use to remove the cast? I've tried some oils that I have but my hair ends up frizzing.
I don’t recall ever seeing these products in stores, but I will be looking for them. I think the results you got were great! I would like to know how they held up in the following days. Have you tried them again on more damp hair?
As always, such a helpful video!! I have been using the Giovanni 50-50 balancing hydrating conditioner and like it a lot! It's a very light conditioner which works well on my fine hair and curls. Haven't tried any of the shampoos yet. Not sure which one to choose since my hair is fine, guess the 50-50 might work well since I like the conditioner. I think your results look beautiful!! Look forward to your next video on the gels you are testing!
I like to do a dry refresh. I just put a little Direct Leave-In on my finger tips and run it through any frizz. Then I do the same w/ the LA Styling gel. Works great!
I've featured their products over on Instagram quite a bit (check my story highlights, there's one labeled for Hairitage), and a few times in TH-cam videos. So far I've liked their stuff but not so much so for them to replace favorites.
Am I the only one who hate to use gel on my curly hair? I just generously apply Dove Amplified Leave in Conditioner and use a diffuser and my curls are popping. I tried gel and my curls were strangled.
Can anyone recommend me some hair products? i have alot of hair but my hair strands are fine. i have low porosity hair. i love mousse. Looking for products to refresh with and just to use in general.
This is my favorite gel! It's very thick so I just add some water to my hands before applying. It helps distribute it better. This gel and mop top custard always gives me a good cast. And PLEASE review the tea tree shampoo. 😁 Your hair is so beautiful. ❤
I tried Giovanni and is garbage I just when by all of the video I saw on TH-cam and I was super disappointed i don't know if you guys are getting paid to say of the wonderful things you say about it but to me this product are total garbage
No I'm not being paid. Even I was getting paid, I would still be sharing my honest thoughts. This is a first impression review, so I used them for the first time in the video and explained that while sharing my initial thoughts and how I liked my results. After testing the gel longer I don't think it's right for me because my results didn't last as long as other gels I use. However, I enjoyed the rest of the products and still use them within my rotation. The gel is the only product that I don't use anymore.

@@theresas2520 I've seen some Giovanni products at Food Lion.
The leave-in, the turbo charged mousse & the volume line!
Their vitapro fusion leave in conditioner is my go-to in between protein masks. It makes my curls pop without having to take the time deep condition.
Giovanni was the one of the first line of products that I used when I started the CGM a couple of years ago. They are totally the bomb! 💣👩🦱

Shook by your results!!! I walk past this brand at the store and never give it a second thought but I might have to try it out now
I used to do blog reviews and did a review on their products. I ended up loving their stuff so much. We still use their stuff, years later.
I love gel so much, I’ve used it for years and it has never disappointed me through the heat and humidity✨💕

I add water to the gel too it makes it easier to work with
I like their products. The gel is the one I use when I’m going out 😉 because it is a bit thick but I get a great result.
I love the la Giovanni gel! Worked amazing in the summer. Definitely have to pair with a leave in. But it was amazing in humidity!
Your curls came out great, moisturized, no frizzy.

Hi Gena, I enjoyed your video! Thank you so much!! Have a wonderful day!!!
I'm still watching your video's, go Gena, go Gena, thanks for another great educational and helpful hair video's.
The LA hold does not give a cast but it *does* hold for days. For me it is a bit drying in the next days, but the curls never stretch.
I love these products, especially the mousse. I've heard amazing things about the Tea Tree Triple Treat shampoo, it's boarder line clarifying but can be used every day.

I’ve used the Giovanni gel - never on dry hair, though. Usually my hair is very wet when I use it, and it works very well.

Thanks for the tip about always touching wet hair with wet hands, and dry hair with dry hands - that is new to me.
Your hair looks great!
Thank you! Yes, that tip reduces frizz because then your hands won't stick to your hair and pull out frizz!
I love it! I like this look on you the best
looks great! love you!💖💖
Wow!! Love how your hair looks , it looks shinny and with volume awesome . I have been using some of their products buy I need to try the foam thanks 🤩

Can the moisturizing shampoo be used as an “everyday”?

do you think the gel suggests dry application for those who refresh our hair with it without wetting it first?
That’s what I was thinking. I tried it on dry hair but mixed with a little water in my hand and got a great day 2 refresh!
@@GenaMarie good tips!
I like to do a dry refresh. I just put a little Direct Leave-In on my finger tips and run it through any frizz. Then I do the same w/ the LA Styling gel. Works great!

Should i buy both the leave-in moisture and the gel or one of them is enough?
both

Am I the only one who hate to use gel on my curly hair? I just generously apply Dove Amplified Leave in Conditioner and use a diffuser and my curls are popping. I tried gel and my curls were strangled.
Can anyone recommend me some hair products? i have alot of hair but my hair strands are fine. i have low porosity hair. i love mousse. Looking for products to refresh with and just to use in general.
This is my favorite gel! It's very thick so I just add some water to my hands before applying. It helps distribute it better. This gel and mop top custard always gives me a good cast.
And PLEASE review the tea tree shampoo. 😁 Your hair is so beautiful. ❤
What's your favourite shampoo and conditioner that you've tried?
The tea tree line damaged my hair and took it out. Giovanni is not for my hair.
Beautiful
The Frizz Be Gone leaves an oily film on your hands.
Is it your hair color or is your hair getting thicker? 😍
I haven't colored my hair 😊 I think because I don't have much of a cast my curls are more fluffy/plump so it looks thicker 🙌🏼
I think it looks fantastic, but it seems like the products are too much work.
They also have silicone!
Wow that brand is way too much work girl! Damn lots of products out there that work so much easier.
I tried Giovanni and is garbage I just when by all of the video I saw on TH-cam and I was super disappointed i don't know if you guys are getting paid to say of the wonderful things you say about it but to me this product are total garbage
No I'm not being paid. Even I was getting paid, I would still be sharing my honest thoughts.
This is a first impression review, so I used them for the first time in the video and explained that while sharing my initial thoughts and how I liked my results. After testing the gel longer I don't think it's right for me because my results didn't last as long as other gels I use. However, I enjoyed the rest of the products and still use them within my rotation. The gel is the only product that I don't use anymore.
