Wow! I absolutely loved this video and information! I have naturally curly hair and am always blowing it out for volume. I will definitely give the WOW product a try. Justin, would love your opinion on dry shampoos, specifically for longevity and for darker hair?
This is one of my FAVOURITE VIDEOS that you have EVER made! I love it so much Justin. You did such an amazing job! Thank you for asking me for my opinion on how to run this test. I am not a scientist but I sure like to pretend I am. Hahahaha! Sending such a big hug to you and Dionna. You guys are the best!
Thanks Gabi! Your insight was everything for this! I'm stoked you loved it. I'm going to be bugging you about these ALL the time now! LOL. Wish I could hang out with you all next week. Dionna's super jacked!
@@justinhickoxHi Justin. What do you think of hyaluronic acid shampoo and conditioner? I swear, they give my hair so much volume. Even at the roots. It looks like I have 30% more volume. Without using any additional products. Could you try this or give an opinion on it? Thank you. I just found your channel, and I love it! New sub here! ❤
I have thin, fine hair. In the past I’ve tried so many products and with disappointing results. I tried color wow because of the results of your testing and WOW indeed. Doesn’t weigh my hair down and keeps its style. THANK YOU!
I have thin, fine hair with thyroid problems and a 58 yo head. That equals alopecia and no volume whatsoever. I took your advice in another video and got a longer bob. But the wowsa to my new style was the Color Wow!!! I get actual complements on my hair now when I used to wear a hat every day before. In a professional office, that's not professional. Thank you so much for your videos. I feel good about my hair now!!
I have thin hair and I’ve been using WOW for two years now. I find it great at putting body and lift into my hair. Thanks for just confirming my belief that’s it’s the best.
I would LOVE to see a similar test for humidity controlling product! We who live in a seasonal humid area loath what humidity does to our hair styling efforts!
I tried the color Wow conditioner on my fine curly hair and it literally took out my curls…I used it twice, and then I gave it away to my straight haired neighbor.
Well, that was fun! If you continue with testing (please), could you comment on scent in terms of "lightly fragrant" "very perfumed" "scent does not go away/does go away" "smells like coconut" "smells like the inside of your grandmother's purse in the 80's" (I hope Shimmer Lights feels called out by that last one 😂).
This is so important! I can’t use anything with much of a scent at all because my husband has such a bad reaction to anything scented. So I need unscented products. Thanks for including this!
My stylist suggested Pureology, and I've been using it, but for me it's expensive. Can't wait to try Tresemme. This was the best video on hair products that I have ever seen! Thank you !
I’m a hairstylist too, live in N.C. where there is a lot of humidity in the summer. I have naturally straight, flat hair like corn silk. I have a version of the Lisa Rinna style. I get a lot of volume by using a combination of Sexy Hair-Root Pump Plus and the TRESemme Volume Spray on towel-dried hair, then, blow dry (med/high heat) with a round brush. The Color Wow and the TRESemme also work good together.
This was the most thorough experiment I’ve ever seen. Most just test part 1 and don’t give any thought to other obvious factors that affect the results. As usual, thank you, Justin.
On my short hair, Tresseme works great! I style on Sunday before church and basically don't do anything but brush it. It holds it's volume and shape even through my rolling over from side to side during the night.
I just bought Color Wow Xlarge volumizer, before I watched this video. I was blown away by my results the first time I used it! I’m from Texas, & you know what they say about big hair in Texas. I’ve tried countless volumizing products over the past 20 yrs of my adult life. Color Wow makes INCREDIBLE products, especially their volumizing products. Definitely worth the investment y’all!
Thank you for including humidity test. I live in the Tampa, FL area and frizz is an immediate problem especially when then the dew point reads 81, the highest it’s been in years. Thank you so very much for this informative vid. Keep them coming!!😊👍
I have thin, fine hair. I have used so many volumizing products, but the Color Wow is my absolute favorite! I use the XL mousse after shampooing (every 2-3 days), and then I use the Raise the Root when styling (daily). I haven't had this much volume in years! Thank you for confirming my opinion! I'd love to see a test on hairsprays, especially flexible/working sprays, and maybe another on texturing sprays. Love your content!
Retired stylist here. I have two things: after Pureology was bought out by L’Oréal, their products began to make my head itch. This was confirmed by some other stylist friends, and the mannequins can’t tell you that. Secondly, I’d like to know how well the products washed OUT of the hair so as to not cause “product buildup”. Thanks for an informative video, Justin!
These are great points! The product buildup aspect is great...may be harder to test since I find that many times it takes multiple uses to really determine how much a product will build up. Worth talking to a chemist about for future videos though...thanks for that idea.
I have thin hair - these manikins had lots of hair - I have tried almost every volume product on the market - and the ones you used never worked for me - try Colorproof or Big Sexy Hair volumizers - they work for thin wispy hair ,, they hold well and can be refreshed.
I think the issue is that the mannequin can't tell you how it feels and if it makes your hair oily or whatever. We have heat coming off our head, a mannequin doesn't
I'm thrilled that a much less expensive product proved to be so effective. Go Tresemme! I'll be getting a bottle of that tomorrow for sure. Thanks! This was such a helpful video! 💜
This was awesome! Maybe you have done something like this before but what about shampoo/conditioner for fine hair to create volume? So thankful I found your channel!
Color Wow has transformed my hair. It was always coarse and frizzy and destroyed by humidity, but as I age it has become curly and fuzzy plus all of the above. Color Wow styling spray makes my hair look and behave almost like normal people hair - shiny and smooth. And it actually looks better after sleeping on it. It really is a miracle. I kept telling my hairdresser that I found this amazing product but forgetting to bring it with me. Her reaction was a subtle yeah, yeah, yeah. And then I remembered. She has been blown away by it. She says she can’t believe she had never heard of it, loves it for her own hair and tells everyone about it. There must be something in the marketing because she says she can’t use it in her salon, but she is sold on it. So I am not surprised by these volumizer results. The brand is a miracle for my hair. (It is also cruelty -free and has unscented options, which are must-haves in my books. There is nothing that is worth torturing animals, and my husband reacts horribly to anything scented. I am thrilled that the best product I ever used meets these criteria.)
I’d love more product comparisons and appreciated you included a lower price point. As someone else suggested I’d appreciate a note about scent as I’m sensitive to odors.
Yes I would love to hear more about products and scent. It is so hard to find hair products that are NOT scented that actually work. There are so many people who do have scent issues and cannot use products that have scent in them - also just because they don't have scent in them, but have essential oils, that counts as scent as essential oils are very overpowering and people with scent issues typically cannot use them either. I sure can't. I wish more hair care companies would include unscented products in their line.
@@StacyA-tm5rj color wow has a lot of products in their line without additional scent added. It’s possible an ingredient on the label might serve a separate person and still carry some scent. But a many of the products don’t have ingredients in there that are solely for perfuming purposes.
I never tried any of these. BUT recently tried UNITE products and was pleasantly surprised the thickness their mousse provided….even 3 days later. Applied properly because of your excellent teaching. ☺️
That’s awesome! Thank you so much for the recommendation and thank you even more for the trust! I appreciate that. I’ll definitely check out the unite products as well!
Their texturizing spray is really good too. I have a Volumizing spray from them that I find myself using more than my very pricey hair products. Happy to know it’s not just me that has found this brand to perform so well!
@@dw1898 I love their Extra Hold Unscented Hairspray. Scented hairspray triggers an asthma attack, but this is great. I'll have to check out their texturizing spray.
Thank you! I appreciate that. I e gotten some good feedback that will help future tests be even better! Is there any other kind of products or tools you’d like to see tested?
Yay for Tresemme. I use their mousse. Will get the spray now too. Yes, more of these videos. How about how to get shine into gray hair that doesn’t weigh it down. 🙂
What a great video. I have had very fine thin hair my entire life. I have used what seems like every volume product out there and discovered the COLOR WOW products about a year ago The Bombshell XL mousse is my favorite. It gives me great volume that lasts until my next shampoo It leaves my hair soft enough so I can run my fingers through it and restyle it The Raise the Root product is also a game changer but adds more of a product feel to my hair. I add it when going to an event where it is very humid and even windy and I need my hair to have volume that is guaranteed not to deflate
This is truly a public service! Thank you for doing it so we don’t have to. I have always found that powder products like dry shampoo or volumizing powder do more for me than liquid products.
Thank you for the Tresemme review!! My hair looks like those mannequins! The humidity test was everything! I am sticking with my Tresemme products due to the price point. I use the mousse and heat protectant daily with the same blow dryer technique and the hair spray. I actually prefer having product in my hair. I have not tried the volume spray you used but will now. Thanks, Justin and Dionna!! You’re the best!! 🥰
WELL I live in the Deep South and humidity is a daily issue almost year round. I have fine wavy hair and FRIZZ has been my arch nemesis for 60 years 🙈 I began using Redken One United and the Color WoW last Summer and what a game changer!! If I had these products when I was in my 20’s, I wouldn’t have lost so much sleep by wearing those horrible huge rollers all night!! We really did that 😜 !! Enjoyed this video so much!! Of course!😬 And happy I don’t need to run out and buy something different 🤣 HugZ💖
I have been using the Wow for a number of months now. Have thin fine hair. It is a miracle worker. Very humid here right now. Hair still has volume even after i take off my golf hat!!!love this product. Wish we could get all their products in canada…
The ColorWow is the best volume product BY FAR I have ever used. I haven't used the other 4 in this video, but I've been using many volume-promising products for 40ish years. Most weigh hair down (while promising to be "weightless" of course), feel gritty and dirty, and make hair look dull. Any volume deflates the instant you touch your hair, or move around., or try to add any shine. When I tried ColorWow, I was truly shocked. The only slightest negative for me is that my hair feels a tad dry, but I can fix that with a few drops of oil WITHOUT deflating the volume. I can even add DreamCoat over it for more shine and to reduce frizz in humidity. Amazing.
As a seeker of volume, I loved this video! The Amika Plus Size Mousse has been my go to for a couple of years now. I personally hated the Wow! I found it incredibly sticky and although I got volume, it made my hair look dull and very coated. Thanks for all the hard work on this video!
Thank you for this. I am off to buy the Tresemme product. Now, you just need to do another experiment of anti- humidity, hair spray, and hair clay products. You are going to be busy😊 Thank you for all the information and tips you share with us. It is much appreciated.
Thank you for confirming that Color Wow is great. I find that it seems to have a "style memory". Even on the third day, all I need to do is run my fingers through my hair, and I am good to go!
Thank you so much for doing this video! I have since purchased and tried the Color Wow Xtra Large Bombshell Volumizer. AMAZING results! This is just what I was looking for. Great 2nd and 3rd day hair with no dry shampoo etc. Keep up the great videos!
Hey! You're so welcome! I'm glad you liked it. Would you want to see more of these kinds of videos? If so, what kinds of products would you want to test?
@@justinhickox Yes! Stepping on the wild side....concentrating on frizz with the humidity. Smoothing but retaining curl or wave. Naturally curly/wavy. Product vs. brush used for drying and/or air drying. You knew that I was going to say that, didn't you?
@@justinhickox..Leave in Conditioner, which another youtube hair person swears is a fame changer. But wash, condition, leave-in, styling product, oil on ends…that’s A LOT of product for us thin, fine, frizzy gals. PS: I used to lemon jello as a setting lotion, tease my hair w a toothbrush & finish with heavy spritz of AquaNet! And slept in rollers every night. 😵💫🥴🤦♀️
I love all of the Color Wow products! There isn’t one I’ve tried that hasn’t impressed me, so I’m not surprised by these results at all:) Thanks for saving us all some money and putting these to the test😊
I use Aveda Phomollient Styling Foam (Gabi’s hair stylist recommended) and Kristen Ess volumizing mist. I think I am guilty of not using enough. Today is shampoo day, so will try to amp it up and when I run out, I will try Tresemme. How about texturizing spray? Some glue my fine hair together making it untouchable!
YOU are the coolest! All professionals should take their jobs as seriously and be as curious to find remedies to problems as you my friend! If they did the world would be a better place! xxoo Ava
Hi Justin. I'd love to see a test on blow dryers. Blow dryers cost between $15-$150 and up. What about the watts? Should that play a factor for home use? Many selling points but does it matter? Thanks for considering,
Absolutely great video!!! I’m really glad you included how it feels in your hair because that can break a product for me. Please do a dry shampoo comparison!! I use Amika, Bumble,overnight Batiste and Living Proof
Loved this video! I’m constantly trying different volumizers for my fine hair but haven’t tried any of these yet. You just saved me some time & money!❤
Great video with honest reviews. I like this cos its not one of those vids made just for the purpose of plugging sponsored products like many youtubers do. The Tresemme was very surprising in comparison to the other more high end products 🙌
Really interesting. I just bought the colour Wow and having just tried it I can confirm it is brilliant. I’ve been using volumising products for a long time and this one is definitely the best of the best.
This was a great video to watch. I bought the Color Wow and WOW! I HAVE FINE HAIR THAT TENDS TO GO FLAT AND I LIVE IN THE SOUTH AND IT’S QUITE HUMID WHERE I’M AT. I AM THRILLED TO REPORT THAT MY HAIR HAS HELD THE CURL AND VOLUME UP ALL DAY! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!
I have used Color Wow shampoo, conditioner and volume products for several months now. It is absolutely the best product I’ve ever used. I also lost some hair after having Covid and I’ve had just normal loss with this line of products.
You are a brilliant hair dresser. So much knowledge. I really enjoyed you sharing with us the hair volume products. I will buy the two. Color wow and tressame. My hair is falling out by the hand full and it’s horrible. These two may help me. Tell your wife so beautiful the two of you so kind.
Excellent experiment! Ummmmm, I bought the Caviar immediately after you recommended it. 😉 Not crazy about it. But then, I was already using the Color Wow foam. I live in the humid Midwest so Color Wow gets that humidity test frequently! 👍🏻
I truly appreciate your trust! I’m very sorry that product didn’t work as well as I would have liked it to work for you. It’s crazy, it’s worked really well for me. Testing it against these other products was a bit of an eye-opener! Would you like to see more of these kinds of videos? I’m very curious how people like this type of video.
@@justinhickox absolutely. Women are frustrated having to test out bottles of hair products to find what’s good. Please do heat protectants, leave in conditioners, hair masks, texture/hairsprays, and finishing oils/serums.
Thank you so much! I actually have been using the Color Wow volumizer for the past several months and have been absolutely loving it. It's the first product that actually can hold my heavy hair.
I use ColorWow - really love it - I don't apply nearly the amount as suggested - that can quickly become expensive. I've used this product on mid-length hair and short hair - works great - I live in Texas where now it's hotter than 40 hells, and this product holds up well in the heat and humidity. Love your channel.
I am so glad to see this video!I have used Tresemme for years. I have used the gel which a little stiff for me, and the mousse. Every now and then, I will try something different but I always go back. Thanks.

Heat protectants that are best for protecting hair, rather than ones that just include some heat protection.

I've used Tresemme products for years--shampoo, conditioner, mousse, gel, hairspray--and I've been pleased with them. Loved this video!

I've never clicked so fast on a video before 😂
Lol! I love that. I can’t wait to hear what you think! I’d love to know if you would want to see more videos like this as well?
Same!!! 😂
@@justinhickox Yes >>> !!!
@@justinhickox yes plz ☺️🙏🏻
Color Wow has transformed my hair. It was always coarse and frizzy and destroyed by humidity, but as I age it has become curly and fuzzy plus all of the above. Color Wow styling spray makes my hair look and behave almost like normal people hair - shiny and smooth. And it actually looks better after sleeping on it. It really is a miracle. I kept telling my hairdresser that I found this amazing product but forgetting to bring it with me. Her reaction was a subtle yeah, yeah, yeah. And then I remembered. She has been blown away by it. She says she can’t believe she had never heard of it, loves it for her own hair and tells everyone about it. There must be something in the marketing because she says she can’t use it in her salon, but she is sold on it. So I am not surprised by these volumizer results. The brand is a miracle for my hair. (It is also cruelty -free and has unscented options, which are must-haves in my books. There is nothing that is worth torturing animals, and my husband reacts horribly to anything scented. I am thrilled that the best product I ever used meets these criteria.)
I’d love more product comparisons and appreciated you included a lower price point. As someone else suggested I’d appreciate a note about scent as I’m sensitive to odors.
Yes I would love to hear more about products and scent. It is so hard to find hair products that are NOT scented that actually work. There are so many people who do have scent issues and cannot use products that have scent in them - also just because they don't have scent in them, but have essential oils, that counts as scent as essential oils are very overpowering and people with scent issues typically cannot use them either. I sure can't. I wish more hair care companies would include unscented products in their line.
Don't get the Amika, it has a very strong scent. Horrible!
@@StacyA-tm5rj color wow has a lot of products in their line without additional scent added. It’s possible an ingredient on the label might serve a separate person and still carry some scent. But a many of the products don’t have ingredients in there that are solely for perfuming purposes.
I have been using Color Wow Carb for at least 4-6 years now. It is amazing.
Awesome video. As a senior on a budget this really helps. I would like to see more of this type of experiment Thank you Val❤
I never tried any of these. BUT recently tried UNITE products and was pleasantly surprised the thickness their mousse provided….even 3 days later. Applied properly because of your excellent teaching. ☺️
That’s awesome! Thank you so much for the recommendation and thank you even more for the trust! I appreciate that. I’ll definitely check out the unite products as well!
I discovered the Tresemme Volume Spray this past winter. It's now the only volumizer I use. I love this product.
I was wondering does it leave your hair sticky?
Their texturizing spray is really good too. I have a Volumizing spray from them that I find myself using more than my very pricey hair products. Happy to know it’s not just me that has found this brand to perform so well!
@@maryalbert6138 It doesn't feel sticky like mousse does. But along with the feeling of thicker hair, there is the feel of product in my hair.
@@dw1898 I love their Extra Hold Unscented Hairspray. Scented hairspray triggers an asthma attack, but this is great. I'll have to check out their texturizing spray.
Great video! Helping consumers buy a great product so we do not waste money on those that are not as sufficient.
I've been following you only for a few months but this was SO ENTERTAINING!!! loved it, also love Gabi. Your channel is so unique. Keep it coming!!
Color Wow does have heat protectant in it so that takes it even higher up when no additional product needs to be purchased
I use the Tresemme all the time, and I love it for my fine pixie. We don't have much humidity where I live.
I use the Color Wow. It’s the only product that I’ve tried that creates lasting volume. I may try the Tresemme since it’s so affordable.
Color wow hands down. Great test!
I have used Color Wow for a year now and am not disappointed! My fine, thin hair has volume and as he said, it is better the 2nd day.
Love to see you test other products. Dry texture spray, hairspray etc. Great job. Thx
Wow! Most informative hair video I’ve ever seen. I now know exactly which brand I’m buying….THANK you for putting the time in and doing it fairly!
Thank you! I appreciate that. I e gotten some good feedback that will help future tests be even better! Is there any other kind of products or tools you’d like to see tested?
Yes to more videos like this!! I like to see products for curly and wavy hair. Great video!!
What a great video! So much time and effort... much appreciated
Wow!!! This video was SO HELPFUL!!!!!! I’ve always loved the one from color wow. So helpful seeing how these wore throughout the day!
Yay for Tresemme. I use their mousse. Will get the spray now too. Yes, more of these videos. How about how to get shine into gray hair that doesn’t weigh it down. 🙂
I used to use Tresemme Mousse years ago so I will try this new spray.
What a great video. I have had very fine thin hair my entire life. I have used what seems like every volume product out there and discovered the COLOR WOW products about a year ago The Bombshell XL mousse is my favorite. It gives me great volume that lasts until my next shampoo It leaves my hair soft enough so I can run my fingers through it and restyle it The Raise the Root product is also a game changer but adds more of a product feel to my hair. I add it when going to an event where it is very humid and even windy and I need my hair to have volume that is guaranteed not to deflate
Where do you get color wow?
@@tammygardner7953 At my salon or on Amazon. Their website also runs sales a lot
Amika works by far the best for me. Smells heavenly as well.
This is truly a public service! Thank you for doing it so we don’t have to. I have always found that powder products like dry shampoo or volumizing powder do more for me than liquid products.
Thank you for the Tresemme review!! My hair looks like those mannequins! The humidity test was everything! I am sticking with my Tresemme products due to the price point. I use the mousse and heat protectant daily with the same blow dryer technique and the hair spray. I actually prefer having product in my hair. I have not tried the volume spray you used but will now. Thanks, Justin and Dionna!! You’re the best!! 🥰
WELL I live in the Deep South and humidity is a daily issue almost year round. I have fine wavy hair and FRIZZ has been my arch nemesis for 60 years 🙈 I began using Redken One United and the Color WoW last Summer and what a game changer!! If I had these products when I was in my 20’s, I wouldn’t have lost so much sleep by wearing those horrible huge rollers all night!! We really did that 😜 !! Enjoyed this video so much!! Of course!😬 And happy I don’t need to run out and buy something different 🤣 HugZ💖
SAME in HoustonTx..where the air is wet & my hair has been the bane of my existence. Especially my older, thinner, grayer, frizzier hair!
@@dianegibbs3716 Amen Sista! Lol Struggle is REAL!😅🌺
I have been using the Wow for a number of months now. Have thin fine hair. It is a miracle worker. Very humid here right now. Hair still has volume even after i take off my golf hat!!!love this product. Wish we could get all their products in canada…
The ColorWow is the best volume product BY FAR I have ever used. I haven't used the other 4 in this video, but I've been using many volume-promising products for 40ish years. Most weigh hair down (while promising to be "weightless" of course), feel gritty and dirty, and make hair look dull. Any volume deflates the instant you touch your hair, or move around., or try to add any shine. When I tried ColorWow, I was truly shocked. The only slightest negative for me is that my hair feels a tad dry, but I can fix that with a few drops of oil WITHOUT deflating the volume. I can even add DreamCoat over it for more shine and to reduce frizz in humidity. Amazing.
Color wow raise the roof root lift is great too
As a seeker of volume, I loved this video! The Amika Plus Size Mousse has been my go to for a couple of years now. I personally hated the Wow! I found it incredibly sticky and although I got volume, it made my hair look dull and very coated. Thanks for all the hard work on this video!
Thank you for this.
I am off to buy the Tresemme product.
Now, you just need to do another experiment of anti- humidity, hair spray, and hair clay products.
You are going to be busy😊
Thank you for all the information and tips you share with us.
It is much appreciated.
Thank you! I was actually thinking of doing anti humidity products! You think that would be helpful?
Thank you for confirming that Color Wow is great. I find that it seems to have a "style memory". Even on the third day, all I need to do is run my fingers through my hair, and I am good to go!
Thank you so much for doing this video! I have since purchased and tried the Color Wow Xtra Large Bombshell Volumizer. AMAZING results! This is just what I was looking for. Great 2nd and 3rd day hair with no dry shampoo etc. Keep up the great videos!
That was fun! I've never used that Color Wow for volume. Thanks Justin.
Hey! You're so welcome! I'm glad you liked it. Would you want to see more of these kinds of videos? If so, what kinds of products would you want to test?
@@justinhickox Yes! Stepping on the wild side....concentrating on frizz with the humidity. Smoothing but retaining curl or wave. Naturally curly/wavy. Product vs. brush used for drying and/or air drying. You knew that I was going to say that, didn't you?
@@justinhickox..Leave in Conditioner, which another youtube hair person swears is a fame changer.
But wash, condition, leave-in, styling product, oil on ends…that’s A LOT of product for us thin, fine, frizzy gals.
PS: I used to lemon jello as a setting lotion, tease my hair w a toothbrush & finish with heavy spritz of AquaNet!
And slept in rollers every night.
😵💫🥴🤦♀️
I love all of the Color Wow products! There isn’t one I’ve tried that hasn’t impressed me, so I’m not surprised by these results at all:) Thanks for saving us all some money and putting these to the test😊
I have been using and love Tresemmé products for years 😍
You just saved us so much time and money!!! Thank you!
Glad I could help!
I use Aveda Phomollient Styling Foam (Gabi’s hair stylist recommended) and Kristen Ess volumizing mist. I think I am guilty of not using enough. Today is shampoo day, so will try to amp it up and when I run out, I will try Tresemme. How about texturizing spray? Some glue my fine hair together making it untouchable!
Thanks for the comparison! Would love to see a comparison for wavy/curly hair products. Great work you two 😊
YOU are the coolest! All professionals should take their jobs as seriously and be as curious to find remedies to problems as you my friend! If they did the world would be a better place! xxoo Ava
Hi Justin. I'd love to see a test on blow dryers. Blow dryers cost between $15-$150 and up. What about the watts? Should that play a factor for home use? Many selling points but does it matter? Thanks for considering,
Thank you. I purchased the Tresemme' volume 5 in 1 spray and it works on my thin grey hair. I'm happy!!
Absolutely great video!!! I’m really glad you included how it feels in your hair because that can break a product for me. Please do a dry shampoo comparison!! I use Amika, Bumble,overnight Batiste and Living Proof
Loved this video! I’m constantly trying different volumizers for my fine hair but haven’t tried any of these yet. You just saved me some time & money!❤
The Amika has the most root lift, so depending on what you're trying to achieve (for me it's root lift) it's the winner.
You really did a lot of work for this video. Impressive. Thanks. I have been a WOW user for a couple of years now. So, happy to see these results.
Great video with honest reviews. I like this cos its not one of those vids made just for the purpose of plugging sponsored products like many youtubers do. The Tresemme was very surprising in comparison to the other more high end products 🙌
Really interesting. I just bought the colour Wow and having just tried it I can confirm it is brilliant. I’ve been using volumising products for a long time and this one is definitely the best of the best.
This was a GREAT video! I’m going to try the Tresemme for sure!
now this is really a test and products comparison should be. thank you. i'll go buy 2 products based on your video.
You’re the best! Yes, more product testing.
This was a great video to watch. I bought the Color Wow and WOW! I HAVE FINE HAIR THAT TENDS TO GO FLAT AND I LIVE IN THE SOUTH AND IT’S QUITE HUMID WHERE I’M AT. I AM THRILLED TO REPORT THAT MY HAIR HAS HELD THE CURL AND VOLUME UP ALL DAY! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!
I have used Color Wow shampoo, conditioner and volume products for several months now. It is absolutely the best product I’ve ever used. I also lost some hair after having Covid and I’ve had just normal loss with this line of products.
Great job, Justin! This was so helpful. I would love to see more test videos like this.
You are a brilliant hair dresser. So much knowledge. I really enjoyed you sharing with us the hair volume products. I will buy the two. Color wow and tressame. My hair is falling out by the hand full and it’s horrible. These two may help me. Tell your wife so beautiful the two of you so kind.
Excellent experiment! Ummmmm, I bought the Caviar immediately after you recommended it. 😉 Not crazy about it. But then, I was already using the Color Wow foam. I live in the humid Midwest so Color Wow gets that humidity test frequently! 👍🏻
I truly appreciate your trust! I’m very sorry that product didn’t work as well as I would have liked it to work for you. It’s crazy, it’s worked really well for me. Testing it against these other products was a bit of an eye-opener! Would you like to see more of these kinds of videos? I’m very curious how people like this type of video.
@@justinhickoxOh yes! I'd love to see more of this type of video. Love the research, trial and error... Or Success!
@@justinhickox absolutely. Women are frustrated having to test out bottles of hair products to find what’s good. Please do heat protectants, leave in conditioners, hair masks, texture/hairsprays, and finishing oils/serums.
Thank you so much! I actually have been using the Color Wow volumizer for the past several months and have been absolutely loving it. It's the first product that actually can hold my heavy hair.
I use ColorWow - really love it - I don't apply nearly the amount as suggested - that can quickly become expensive. I've used this product on mid-length hair and short hair - works great - I live in Texas where now it's hotter than 40 hells, and this product holds up well in the heat and humidity.
Love your channel.
Wow! Is indeed the BEST on my super fine hair.
This was great! Thank you. I am really having great results with the Color WOW. Very informative video.
Excellent! I just ran out of product and I know what to buy now! Thanks Justin! I wish you could do my hair.
Wow that’s a lot of work you did for us!! Thx J great video!!
I am so glad to see this video!I have used Tresemme for years. I have used the gel which a little stiff for me, and the mousse. Every now and then, I will try something different but I always go back. Thanks.
Love seeing the comparison of products!
I've used WOW & Pureology. I love the WOW!!!
