Hi Mel, First off let me start off by saying what a great job both you & your sister do each week....I’ve learned a lot about understanding my hair. I know that both you & Amanda have higher porosity hair, & therefore you both use products that contain protein......however I’m currently suffering from a case of protein overload. I was wondering if you could be so kind as to do a video on protein free products, as I, struggling on finding products that contain no protein. I’ve watched your other videos on balancing protein vs moisture, & they have been very useful on my journey so far. I’m also from Toronto, so Canadian friendly too please & thank you!! 😊

question! I know some silicones are more water soluble than others. But for the Monday shampoo and conditioner - can the SLS-free shampoo handle the amodimethicone and actually completely cleanse it out of my hair? I still sometimes get confused when I see an SLS free shampoo paired with a conditioner with silicone. But I don't know much about amodimethicone.

Am I the only one who goes to target or Walmart and immediately goes to the hair and body care section even though I know I don’t need anything? 😂😂😂

Today was graduation day at our school and with your tips, I was able to manage to be frizz free, voluminous and defined curls. Everyone asked me if that’s my hair or if it’s chemically enhanced. I was flattered that my hair looked that good that they thought it was chemically treated.

Thank you for this review! I especially appreciate how you talk about the scents. You don’t just say it’s good or bad, but what & how strong. That helps someone like me who is very fragrance sensitive.

I appreciate what Mell does for us. Happy TEXTURE TUESDAY!!!!

Thank you for always giving us great comparisons. I’d love to see winner vs winner from some of your battles. Blessings to you both!

Thank you so much for continuing to mention how things smell in your reviews! I’ve noticed it a lot in your recent videos and just wanted to say it is greatly appreciated! ❤️

I’m so grateful I found you! You gave me the courage to try a Denman brush on my 3C curls and I have to say, I’m blown away!!! Life changing.

I have been wondering about the Twist products can’t wait to really look at what they have and grab me some!

The videos she dose helps me so much with taking care of my curley hair

I love you and your sense of humor.. you're really fantastic 😘 I would love to see you treating and styling damaged curls of some of your customers.. especially the dry hair.. because your your hair seems very healthy to show the difference between products.. much love ❣

Bless it. I’ve been on my curl journey for two years, and I still haven’t found anything that really works for my waves/curls. I’ve been looking at the twist products. I just hope this works, since my hair has a thick but fine follicles. Thank you! I’ve been watching you since I started this curl journey.

I’ve been eyeing up the Twist brand for a while now and I’m so glad you did this review! I trust your recommendations and can’t wait to try this brand now.

I love your videos! You really know what your talking about and it's help my hair journey alot! Thank you for being a place of fun and happiness where I find myself giggling AND super educational!☺️🤗

Twist looks amazing and I like that the scent is on the lighter side

Thank you. You are great. I love the information and descriptions.

Happy Texture Tuesday 💜 !!! So excited to try these out Mell !!

Woohoo I'm just styling my hair now super excited for this

I feel like I would go for the Hairitage leave-in, with the Twist stylers for my hair type. Thanks for the great review, as always! ❤

In regards to the Monday moisturizing line, Dry and Damaged don’t always equal each other. They should make a separate line for damaged hair that is protein rich. Sometime dry hair is just on the drier side because it’s curly and textured.. just my thoughts

Mell, love your videos and the great fun information you give to Curly Girls (and boys) You always make me smile... thanks for doing what you do... from a fan and a fellow Curly Hairdresser x

Absolutely loved this video!!

The best day of the week!! HAPPY TEXTURE TUESDAY ❤️❤️

Just purchased Twist with your code! Thank you ☺️ Definitely rewatching your vids to get back curls back 🥺

I LOVE the twist line. Especially the ones in the white bottle. The curl primer is the best second day refresher I’ve ever used.

@@brianaobermaier8924 target, bed bath and beyond if it has the beauty section and Walmart. I tried the gel first, then conditioner, then I ran out and bought the whole white line.

I was so scared to use sulfates, silicone etc on my curly hair, but thanks to you I'm not anymore and my hair is doing great. Even after bleaching it. Gracias ♡

I'm a recent subscriber and I'd just like to say that I love your channel! You have helped my hair so much and your videos are so funny and helpful! Thank you so much to you and your seester for every amazing texture Tuesday and I look forward to all of the new videos!!

I would love to see you use the LUSH new curly hair brand. I have been using the co-wash and the curl power conditioner and the curl power cream (leave in cream) for the last couple months and I love it and it smells super delicious! I use the kinky curly custard as my gel (that is my holy grail) and then when I need to clarify I use the Malibu C recommended by you! LUSH's leave in cream is thicker and they say you can use it as a hold product alone so sometimes ill use it after the curl smiths light as a feather leave-in if I am going for a simple no cast look... but you've been on the whole vegan, cruelty free product support train and this is exactly that so I thought i'd comment the suggestion for the next review (:

Ooo, my hair LOVES Ouidad! The Define & Shine Cream Gel is my favorite. I'm super excited to try Twist!

Thanks for the great video!!💚😊💚😊. I just ordered the twist products. Can’t wait for them to get here!!

oooo on my way to the store now can wait to try some of the twist products thank you mell!!!

I really like the fluffiness of the Twist side, and due to my fine med-low density hair I like that it seems to be light. Next time I resupply on my products I look forward to giving them a try.

Omgggggg. PLEASE do a review of the full Ouidad line using the cream AND gel!! Thank you! I definitely have looser curls and I rely on a good hold to keep them spirally.

Just what I needed before washday Wednesday!!

I want to thank you. I knew my hair was curly but didn’t know what texture. You’ve helped me find my texture and my hair actually looks curly now. Thank you so much!

I love you and your seester! Your videos are super helpfull and needed, so thank you so much, you have no idea how much it has helped our confidence. Can you please do videos about these topics 1 sealing oils because serums are not cheap 2 why some people look amazing with only one product, the one and done method 3 how to read labels and most important ingredients for every hair type 4 more affordable haircare products because aveda is not affordable here in Belgium 5 why some people despite everything they do dont grow long hair and what to do about it

I love your bloopers so funny 😆 thanks for the review ladies 👍🏻😘

Yes love the drugstore recommendations! Like you said accessible and affordable, that's key for me 🙌🏼

Oh yay! I was just noticing all the options this week at Walgreens and so overwhelmed!

Yay! I love your review! Would love to see your results with the Twist gel too. Thanks for the coupon code💕☮️

I’m so frickin excited! This entire week has been going so slow leading up to the next texture Tuesday 😍

Enjoyed watching this, I have to check out that Monday line. I just got the Shea moisture manuka honey and yogurt line, and it's the best smell of all the product smells I've ever smelled...if that makes since. My hair feels amazing!!!

Yessss battle of the products! I have been tempted 2 try out the Monday shampoo and conditioner and now I will definitely buy. I have not heard of the other products but I definitely can't wait 2 try the twist hair products, especially now with all the humidity that's coming. "Stop moving your head" 😂😂😂

Thank you for calling out the gluten free products! I loved the Twist line and keep wanting to try more of it. I was not a fan of hairitage. Was way too heavy and greasy for those of us with lacking hairs.

Happy Texture Tuesday Seesters! Would you review Ecoslay products in a video please?! You girls are the BEST!!

Definitely "Twist"! I have fine, dense, hair, and I know it would be fine for me! Thanks Mel❣️

Thank you for this video. I loved the affordability and effectiveness of these products! The Twist products worked exactly as shown in this video. I got soft fluffy curls!! Excellent curl pattern!!

Ahh just love you and this video has been soooo helpful!! 😍😍

Yayyyy another curly hair product battle!!

thank so much, love your videos!

I love a good battle of the brands! Thanks for including more affordable products!

I just love your videos !!

Thanks for doing the comparison. It’s helpful

Happy Texture Tuesday!! So excited for this cause I actually just picked up the hairitage curl cream haven't tried it yet and the dry shampoo which I loved but I have the magic dust texturizing powder that doesn't leave a white residue you should try that one lol!! Thanks!! Much love and happiness!!! Xoxo 😘

Loved this!!! Thank you for this 😄 Also, would you say the Aussie curl shampoo is good, Mell? I’ve always wanted to try it ☺️

I absolutely adore your knowledge and explanations on specific ingredients.

Omg, how cool- you responded! Thank you for your videos!!

I tried the twist products today and love my hair! Thanks so much! I was looking for something that was lightweight as I have very fine hair. It did the trick.

Hi Mell! Thanks a lot for your videos, they've really helped me enhance my curls. Just a suggestion for a future one: summer is really hot in my area (south of France) and the hot air really seems to drain all the moisture from my curls, so that they feel like straw. A video about tips and tricks to keep our hair hydrated even during summer would be great (after the "cold curls" series, why not do the "hot curls" one?

Oh goody! Love when you review affordable brands. I've already tried Hairitage, so I'm glad to learn about the others. Have you, or are you going to try Kerastase Curl Manifesto??

The Twist side definitely came out better! I wonder tho how well both sides would have done with some gel. Either way, great video Mel...I'll have to check out the Twist products. 😊

I found you at 1am this morning 😭 it’s 10am & I’m back watching your videos! I have super curly natural hair I absolutely never liked it so I would go to the Dominicans every 2 weeks faithfully but lately I’ve been researching to find the perfect products it gets soooo dry so quickly & it shrinks fast. I find it amazing how it curls up perfectly still!

Thanks u for all your helpful advice xx

Mel! Thank you for this product challenge! I’ve been going broke on Ouidad products because they work so well. It’s great to see a curl expert’s assessment of their much more affordable drugstore line! For reference, a liter of their Climate Control Gel is $75. Whereas, the 6 products recommended by the Twist quiz totals $60!!!! My wallet feels fuller already! Please keep these coming! ❤️

I just purchased 5 items of Twist, hopefully it will make my frizzy crazy curls good. Love all your videos.

Mel I LOVE your videos! You helped me to understand that the parts of my curls that were no longer curling was because of heat damage. I'm on my way to a better head of beautiful. Thank you also for showing me how to give my curls a dusting to keep length and health. Do you have any videos on dying curly hair? I need to correct a terrible box job I did and I think it dried out my babies. 😫

Definitely the Twist side. Your curls are so much more defined and curly. I also love the smell of twist. I just started using their products and so far so good.

Thanks for sharing. I love your videos because they are so helpful. I am unable to find a curl specialist in Oklahoma. So your videos really help me out. Also I used your Twist code to purchase the weather up gel. 😉

Awe man I wish this video came out last week I would have bought the Monday to try! I will have to remember for the next time!

I’m gonna try some of twist’s products, because they look like they work with your hair, and I have I think fine/medium hair. So I cannot wait to try them!

Just love you and your seester!! As far as which products I like, at first I thought the Hairitage looked better, but then on day 3 Twist definitely held up better so I'd go with Twist!! It makes sense since it's a Ouidad product!!! :)

I love the Twist hair gel. It’s my everyday gel. Because it’s made by Ouidad, it’s very similar to Ouidad Curl Shaper™ Out Of Thin (H)air Volumizing Jelly~ You definitely need to try it. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. I’m going to definitely try the curl creme. Thanks for reiterating Why I like the Monday shampoo ~ 😉

Hey Mel! Thanks so much for another amazing video :) I was looking on the ulta website for the Monday shampoo and a lot of comments said it was causing their hair to fall out - is there any specific ingredient that would do this?

I just stumbled onto Twist last week at my Walmart in the clearance section. I had never seen it there before and I look at hair stuff a lot so it was a big surprise to me but it's by Ouidad so I felt good getting 3 items for $5 each. I tried them and was so impressed I went back the next day and cleared out what they had left so I could stock up and save $$$ in the long run. I think Twist is a fantastic budget option for great curls!

Love watching your videos. And like seeing your sister use things because I have long thick hair. Wanted to know if y'all have an video best drugstore like Walmart on shampoo and conditioning Plus leaving in, cream/gel and finish video or can do one?

HEYYYYYYYYY omg have u been doing something diffrent you are glowing , anyways late coment ( didn’t have time to coment earlier) LOVE THIS VIDEO , reviews are my favorite and i loved the style u reviewed these products like yasssssss

Thank you for my curly wavy hair journey advice! You’re very much appreciated.

Love your posts. Products are not always readily available in Australia, but I do google

Girl thank you!! I been wondering!! The MOMENT THEY HIT THE SHELVES 🤣🤣

New curlfriend here! Binging on your vids and very excited to now have a curl care plan in place thanks to you as I grow out my menopausal 3c curls from a pixie cut. (Hey! Maybe you could share some advice on your experience regarding hormonal hair changes 😳) Keep the try-outs comin’!

Great Review!!! I avoid the Haritage bc strong fragrances are a no-no for me as a migraine person but the Twist line sounds good 👌🏼. I like that it has different levels of moisture 💦

I just bought something from the Twist line so this is exciting!

I am getting the craziest cast...all the time. No matter which gel I'm using. Any tips how I can avoid it? I really love having a cast but sometimes I prefer not having too hard of a cast. And just a cream is not enough for my wavy texture. Love you Mel. You're my go to for ever when it comes to hair and humor hehe❤️

Love the comparison! I hate ordering hair care products and prefer things I can buy at the store or Ulta. One product by hairitage that you didn’t try is the texturizing spray. I love to use it for volume on refresh days. I agree that the scent is a bit intense though :)

Your videos have been like the bible for me!!!! I love watching and learning something new!!! Have you tried Curly Potion by Oway? I'd love to see a review for this!!! My stylist in FL used it on my and I loved it!

You always try all types of products. That is fantastic. You also say often that you do not prefer drugstore products. What is the difference between drugstore and non drugstore versions. What sets them apart? How can we tell if something is worth the extra money? Thanks for all the hard work you guys do. ☺

Can you try the upside down method for curly hair. Your vids have been really helpful. Thx ☺️ soo much

Thank you for this! I’ll be trying Monday! Have you tried the Twist shampoo and conditioner yet??

I wish you also tried the gel for each line. But still nice to see how some of the products from each line work.

Definitely going to check out Twist!

Never a dull day... ❤ (Or video... ☺) We, dyed hair curls...gel is a must! But I will add, your hair was quite nice in this "experiment" I was surprised. You may have bleached hair, but it's one of the most taken care of 100%. CONGRATS!

You’re comedic gold!

Hi Mel! Could you please try the Gabrielle Union line. I would love to know what you think. Thank you

Right now it’s 1:45am and I’m watching your videos. I love all you do for us, both you and your seester. I’m a older hairdresser and am still always looking for updated advice. Thanks so much. You and Amanda are beautiful….but I am jealous that you both have all that gorgeous hair. I’m 2C/3A fine, low density broad that wishes you both a beautiful life ❤️👍🏼

U should totally try the twist gel. I use it with the cream and get great results

Please try out the As I Am curling jelly and leave in conditioner!!

Try the Hairitage "to the max" maximum hold styling gel. Holy Cow did it work on my hair!

Would love to see your thoughts on the weather up gel!!

Its so funny cuz I, just today, had to run to Walmart and I'm pretty sure I saw a bunch of these twist ones, but loads of different colors(maybe I'm wrong), and since I can't afford anything but a bit of food, I didn't dare look too much or I'd pine too hard 😆😁 but now I look forward to having them on my list to try!! I also just saw a dry shampoo that was for brown hair...2 actually, so they have a brown tint, one more cool brown and the other and warmer reddish brown...though I'm sure you knew that already 😊 but the heritage dry shampoo was crazy!!! This was awesome!! Have you ever tried the 'Fruit of the Earth ', think that's the brand, of aloe vera juice you can buy cheap in the pharmacy section for your hair? I've seen it used for leave in, or detangling or in your conditioner....wondered if that is real or just people trying to make junk up for likes :) Thanks so much!!! You and your seester are the BEST!! 🥰🥰
