DON'T FORGET TO LIVE YOUR EXTRA LIFE!

Good morning, boys I'm going shopping. I guess where I'm going Erik, no John, no Erik, let's yoga, no one more time, Jon Apple store, maybe later follow me this way. I know your thought: I've longed to be shopping. What like I'm going to the transform huh? What I love the drugstore and listen uncle her come often there's no shame to that. I actually have a lot of hair care products from the drugstore that I use all the time, and I want to share that with you guys, but I also want to go find some new stuff. So I got today's look on and I'm ready. It'S a head said that drug store. We all do it. I mean it's really just like pooping. We all go there, so we're in the haircare aisle we have arrived and there's a lot of things. Oh, what's this there's some things, you should stay away from in the drugstore, and this is one of them. I better see none of you putting this on your head. You hear me okay, this stuff, okay, actually really like this. Okay. This is exciting. This is exciting. Okay, first we're gon na talk about. Oh this is so pretty. This looks a lot like glitterati y'all comes my gate for what I want to get a few. These OGX products, just because it looks like it's really pretty. I'M not gon na lie and I'm very interested to see if it really compares to the other objects products I've used. So why don't? We do dry texturizing, because I love texture sprays. Why don't? We also try the soap blowout? Oh dry, shampoo phone I've actually never used dry shampoo foam before that seems like fun. Am i right? Let'S try also the hairspray sugar, I'm really excited. I want to try all these things. Mitten. Okay, I feel like I got a lot from that line, but um they had really good packaging. So OGX good stuff is very important to be looking for some sulfate free products when you're at the drugstore. Not all drugstores are bad guys and I'm not ever trying to say that, but you have to be weary about the bad products and there are some Joe. What is this my conditioner dry conditioner, so we're gon na put this to the test. Why don't we also try this one? Our basket is getting a little full over here, texturizing beach, spray and again laughs texturizing. So what the rest of its all right! Let'S get a few of not your mother's, because a lot of people rave about this stuff - and I have used the dry shampoo before so I want to give this a try: let's get the original, more texturizing spray. Let'S also put this the test. I think this isn't weird a lot of dry shampoo this way, because there is a lot of options, but let's do the original of everything I'm also really interested in this dove, like I didn't even know, dove had a styling Caroline, so why don't we give them? This a shot, let's do flexible, hold hairspray. This seems like a good idea. It'S only eight dollars like thank you. I definitely tried L'Oreal before, but some of it I've loved some of it. I have not, but let's try some their new stuff, which is the iron straight heat spray, which is going to make it very sleek like that class hair. Look, let's try some in this. Let'S try! Some of this high lift inject volume. Mousse cuz! This packaging is sickening and it looks like fun well that is about all that money gets today, because I think I got plenty, I'm all gone now. I want more stuff. I kids stop again. Stop help me help me. This is Carlos. He got his hair and didn't like it because of me and now he's back to dark there. It didn't work out, consider where it goes for Carlos I'm back from Duane Reade / Walgreens. Apparently it's a it's a collab. I'M here there's actually nothing in this bag. Just a promise, so I actually already emptied everything out. I already put it in categories: I'm ready to test these products on miss many quaint over there, hey babe after I got home from shopping. I was so tired that I took a nap and I took a nap for a couple hours, so I am ready to go now and I'm ready to test some products and let's see how they all work out. So let me grab Miss Minnie claim and let's get it started baby. This isn't fact that love my life, miss Minnie granny and she is looking greasy because I just put so much oil in her hair. That way, we can test these try shampoos properly. So why don't we start on this side of her head and, let's test our five dry shampoos now today's lineup for dry shampoos is consisting of not your mother's texturizing dry shampoo, so it's a little different than their other ones, but we're also even testing on your Mother is original because who doesn't love an original we're also gon na test some dry conditioner. So I guess this is kind of like a mixed category. I'M not gon na lie so we're testing, dry shampoos, recognition and dry texturizing spray. We have also, but tea stay, which is a cult favorite classic without you call it. I don't know, I'm just trying to like go with the trends here. I hear people say it all the time and I just want to like use that word for something. This is the original cleaning classic of that teas stay dry shampoo, which is a can't wait to try it and we have the OGX dry, shampoo foam. So we have all different kinds of dry shampoo Satan's going on here, and I am ready to test all these new different products. I mean not really new but like different. Let'S do an exciting one first, which is the OGX dry shampoo foam. I'Ve used all kinds of dry shampoos, I mean powders pace, regular ones in a can, but I have never used a foam, so I'm excited to try this new thing and maybe it'll be my new favorite thing. I also want to mention that I have no problem with drugstore products. I have used a lot of them and I don't think you need to always use one product from one line and only six pad line. I think there's so many different products out there and I love to dip into other care care lines. Besides my own, it's important that I venture off and try other girls hair products and see what other people drink on the market. That way, I can have my own haircare line, be the best it possibly can be so we're gon na now. Do this bamboo fiber full dry, shampoo, balm, so a beautiful packaging grab the bat it says with bamboo fibers and soy proteins helps boost body absorb oil and freshen and beautify cool. Take well before use suspense a dime sized amount and apply directly to roots massage and absorb excess oils, and we're gon na apply it to this side of her head. Oh okay, wow! This smells absolutely delicious. It smells like just tropical vacation. Chi smells like sunscreen, but it's coming so all right. We'Re gon na apply a guest like this. Just put it in the hair. Oh whoa, okay! So clearly, there's a whole lot of alcohol in this, because, oh my and if, after that, immediate, like smell of island, get away, it goes away. You immediately smell like heavy amounts of alcohol, which is just what I expected, because that is how you observe oils with alcohol. It smells like, I poured isopropyl alcohol all over her head and it does Li her hair wet. So it doesn't say to blow-dry okay, its drying now, because it is alcohol, but okay, so we're still working it in it's definitely getting drier, as we go definitely absorb the oils like this is what it started with and now you can see. Let me brush it. Real quick, okay, Wow! Actually, oh, wait. What wait! This is amazing, so it pretty much dissolved all of those oils and left her hair. Really nice and shiny and the alcohol smell did go away and her hair doesn't feel like it has like that. Chalky cast that some dry shampoos give the hair like this would even be perfect on really dark hair because it doesn't leave any residue behind like look at that. Okay, really like this really like this. Only thing I'm worried about is people with curly hair using this because it is so wet. It might freeze your hair back up, so you might want to stick with something that is aerosol, but for people who don't have curly hair wow. This made a huge difference really like it: okay cool. So this is definitely gon na stay in my tool. Kit product kit, because that was really nice and absorbed a lot, a lot of oils and left the hair, really soft, cuz a lot of dry shampoos, don't leave her hair soft and this one really really did. This is what we started with guys. It was really early and now it's completely not oily anymore kind of really into that. So yes, thank you, for this is a really dope, but again people with curly hair. Maybe not maybe not. We already have the dry shampoo up here. So why don't we move down of the hair shaft and try the dry conditioner on these ends? So the next brand is called cake - and I have never heard of this before it is called a lock, so dry conditioner. If you guys don't know what that is, it is not a very common thing that people use a lot, but it is actually very helpful. Nice thing to use, I almost like to call it a fabric softener for hair. It'S when you want that smoothness. On your end, you don't want like that heavy weight that comes with oil, but you don't want it to weigh your hair down like oil does, so it really just smoothes your ends without adding any kind of like residue behind. If that makes any sense, when you have that second day, hair, that's kind of knotted and you kind of can't brush through it dry conditioner is actually really great for that it says totally to die for instantly polish, your hair and leave your locs softly restored and Superbly shiny this feather-light formula transforms unruly second day, hair into tame lustrous hair. Without the harsh chemicals shake well, it's bright at least 15 centimeters from hair. Let'S shake it up: let's shake it up with shake it up and her ends are actually kind of right now, because she's been through a lot. So let's see how much this really brings him back to life. She'S got some dead ends on here, honey and so does everybody's. Look. It'S fine huh! It smells good. I don't know what the scent is. It smells kind of like candy. Maybe it was a smelly cake cool, let's brush that through okay, okay, okay, okay, okay! Oh, my god wait. These legs are actually thickening right off the bat. I can definitely tell that I can brush through this hair so much easier and it's so soft again. It feels think I put fabric softener on the hair, but it's it's really nice. It'S very subtle difference, but it leaves it kind of like a little bit of a shine, is not heavy and makes it really easy to brush your hair out and give that second day hair like a little bit of a boost. It needs so love that again you guys an awesome product, so we're really waiting at the drugstores back Kate, the locksmith. I reckon let's move on okay, so this has been a product. I'Ve been a meeting to try for a long time, which is the Baptiste a dry shampoo. It'S just the original version of it and we're gon na try it on the other side of her head, she's, nice and greasy on this side. As you can see. So we're gon na try this and it just basically says how to use a dry shampoo, which we all, I think would know by now, and so we're gon na try and get all this oil out of her hair. Let'S see how good this works, I'm kind of wondering how this will smell - they didn't have a few different formulas with different scents, but I want to try the original just because I think the original is always the best. You know, let's shake this up and let's start applying to Miss Minnie Queen. Oh that ain't it okay, oh, it smells like toxic chemicals immediately. It'S leaving a large white cast on this blonde hair, which is surprising because usually we only get a white cast and like dark hair, but look at this you're getting a white cast on blonde hair. That is not a good sign. You know what she'll treat is gray hair now: okay, let's brush it through yeah, it's like catching in the oils. Oh, this is tragic. Do you see that? Oh, my God, look at her roots? Look how white it made them bended by this stuff, and it's like there's like chunky pieces of it like it all got caught in the oils and like chunk together in my hands, are like now white as hell. Compare it to this side! Look at this! Oh! My gosh this side, it was amazing, like this foam dry shampoo, you guys go get it because it is unbelievable and this is so gross you guys. I am immediately throwing this away and if you have this at home, please throw it away because it is revolting. I don't know how they have made such a business off of this, because I am and would not recommend anybody use this. It does not work that TSA, I'm so sorry, but please reformulate or do something and it's not even that cheap, so you're doing something wrong. Clearly or something right or I'm just crazy - I don't know okay up next, we have another very much, a cult favorite, which is the not your mother's Game, Freak refreshing, dry, shampoo. The original version again said the regular size, one retails for six dollars. So it is a lot cheaper than the baptise days, and hopefully it also works better than that one. It is an aerosol dry shampoo and we're gon na try it in her bangs here and they are nice and greased up. So let's do it. Let'S do a little try definitely smells a little out golly, that's fine! That usually goes away. Unfortunately, he is leaving a cast ooh guys damn. That is what you call a cheap dry shampoo, oh, oh, no, not your mother is damn. I was actually really rooting for this one and it smells so bad and it left a white cat. Just like the baptise say one. I don't know how both of these became so popular when they both smell and don't work. I am confused. I would not recommend these are terrible, I'm so sorry Baptista, but I'm sure not all of your products are bad, but I wouldn't use this on a client. Sorry not happy at all with those. Thank you, but no thank you. Moving on okay, this next crunch is a texturizing dry shampoo. So it's a dry shampoo, but it's gon na have more texture. That was the dumbest thing. I'Ve ever said what that really means is like, and it just has more of a grit to it. So I do actually like that, because when I use dry shampoo, I'm using it to style a lot more often, then I'm using it to absorb excess oils. So we got our last section here that is nice and greasy in the back of her hair. Okay. So hopefully it's other now your mother's product gets a little bit of a better s. Let'S do the same thing. It'S nice and greasy back here. Okay immediately has a better scent. This is actually the toasted coconut version, so I like coconut. So if you like coconut, it definitely smells coconut, as you would expect. Oh my god. What is this? What is it me? Am i doing something wrong cuz. This is leaving a humungous white cast terrible, I mean, even if I sprayed farther away, it's still leaving a discussing white cast and even if I brush it through, it's hardly even absorbing new oils. What is not your mother's? What happened? What why does it relight this product because it's easy to get from a drug so we're like it's not even good okay, so I don't feel any texture, I'm not impressed kind of sad. Sorry, not your mother's! You guys. I don't know I don't. I don't know. It'S what so absorb and add texture and make it Beach ready. So I'm gon na have to say no on this. This is not good either it leaves a white pass again, don't some brown hair for sure, even on blonde hair. This is not working good and I don't feel any texture, so I don't know what that's about so those are the dry shampoos and dry conditioners and stuff. The tutor that I really liked wore out poorest, the dry shampoo foam, which was amazing and the cake dry conditioner, which was awesome. I love it. Okay, moving on, let's go faster at our next product. We'Re gon na try this one which again really excited about. I think I said that many times, but this one is really cool because it is the l'oreal advanced style collaboration where they apparently it says the special edition packaging designed by international artists, bloggers and artists design this, and it is the artist collaboration series. I thought it was like hair artists like collabed on this stuff, but apparently it's just new packaging okay. So it's just a new look i'll, but it's called boost it and there's volume and Jeff mousse. I just really wanted to try a new moves, because I do really like mooses they're, really fun to get that nice big volume at last all day, it's lightweight aerated mousse gives lifeless hair of volume for 24 hours infused with thickening agents. Hair is boosted for long-lasting bouncy and volume eyes who sit evenly throughout damp hair style as usual. So for this I am going to do what I would usually with mousse, which is apply on a damp hair, mostly on the root and then do a nice pin. Curl set and then let it down and see the amount of volume we end up getting in that root and usually there's a little bit of like stiffness left at the roots, so we're gon na see how sieve it really gets and if it works well, so I'M gon na dampen it apply really quickly. Let'S just do a section right here right and I'm gon na apply this and see how it smell it smells kind of fruity. I kinda like it and we're just gon na rake this through the entire strand. Mousse also gets a lot of holes in the hair, so if you wanted like a pink roll set and make your hair wavy and curly just to make a really nice blowout with a lot of body, this is really gon na help you with that. So I'm a big fan of mousse. This is a great thing to have at your disposal so already I feel a lot a lot of texture in there and I like that. I really do like texture as we've talked about throughout this entire video. But let's give this a quick blow-dry: let's see how it performs all right, Artie we're getting nice lipped and it's not greasy at all, so we're gon na. Let that just sit for a moment in a pin curl. This is what I would typically do and let's just see how much I really stays as we're letting that sit for a moment. Let'S try another product, it's by the same line, l'oreal paris, the iron straight feet spray. So it says our high performance lightweight hairspray, offers three days: sleek hair protects me, damage, calms, frizz seals and shine blocks humidity and conditions. First leaks have the last three days, so unfortunately, I can't find out if it's gon na last three days, because I'm not a real head, but we're gon na see yeah just how like real sweet. It makes the hair. This is just air dried hair without anything. In it, so let's see, if it really smooths out quite nicely, apply on damp hair and style with heat. I'M gon na blow dry this in just like the last one, so we're gon na dampen this boom boom boom. Bang, OH, a very fine mist and we love a good fine mist, so that is great, also smells delicious smells like fruit and like sugar. So then, let's blow dry, that's it okay! So this is air dried over here. This is blow dried and even feeling this, like it's soft but like this, is really enjoy this. Okay love that again, I can't test the three days stay thing that they claim, but really really enjoying this product, love that okay, it didn't add any kind of grit. It just feels like very healthy and nice, and it's not oily really like this product. Awesome cool love that okay and let's check back on our boosted, volumizing mousse by L'Oreal over here, we've had that set for, like probably five minutes now, let's see what we get here and typically, I would just brush this out gently okay, so you can see that We'Re getting good projection from this scalp I put quite a bit in there and I'm definitely not really getting any kind of hold that I can feel. I like what volumizing mousse is have a bit of like texture up here. That way, you can really feel like. There'S kind of a a grip you're getting on the roots. That'S what's really gon na keep the volume staying for a long period of time, but I feel like this is just getting volume because of the pin curl clip. I mean it's just really soft and it feels nice, but oh I'm not feeling anything really. I mean that's just from the pink rub, but like this kind of dead and lifeless so this is got you know for me. Unfortunately, this one's not the best this. What works great, but okay, moving! Alright! This is the quick dragon thermal spray, so this is gon na protect your hair from heat, and it's gon na decrease your blow drying time. Apparently so. We'Re gon na try this on this strand of hair. I'M gon na really wet it down and we're gon na see just how bad this helps brighten the hair. So let's really wet this down. It just says to spray it on and comb through perfect. I don't know doesn't really feel like much kind of nice. Okay, I like that and we're gon na really get in there. Usually drying aids like this, have a lot of alcohol in them and that's how they work, but just be careful. You have a very lightened hair chemically because it will dry your hair out. Okay, let's see if this cuts down at all on this drying time, okay, so what I'm immediately noticing is that it is nowhere near as soft and as shiny and full of life. As this last strand is, you can tell this one's very smooth out and this one it's kind of like puffy and like not good, I did load on the exact same way with the exact same brush and blow dryer, and I don't feel like it cut down On blow-dry time at all, and it just kind of left this kind of residue on the hair just dry feeling I don't like the way that looks at all, so this is said, no all right. Okay, we have five more products ago and we're go Buster. This really quick, so we have hair spray it now and we have one from OGX, which I found that I'd like some of the products and don't like some of them. So we'll see what this one and now we have a Dove style and care which is so weird that dove makes hair products. Since when do you do hair products? Stop or I don't know - maybe stop. I don't know we'll see. This is flexible. Hold hairspray in this is big hair spray, so they're both at a level four of hold. So let's see how both these work and having smell we're gon na try it on this piece of hair and we're gon na do like a nice curl with hairspray. That way, we can just test how these work for holding curls in her hair and it's a good way to test it. So I'm gon na do it. Okay, great perfect, so first up we're gon na use the Dove one, which is a flexible, hold hairspray, and it's just guys. It'S a hairspray. This fast drying, nonstick formula lets you enjoy a frizz proof, touchable style, so it's mostly touchable. It'S also to be hard natural movement and shine. We'Re gon na try it on this piece right. What about three? Four five we'll just do five like that: okay, immediately as a fresh smell so far, I feel nothing on the hair, and that was a very, very fine mist. Let'S just put a little bit more on there really not doing anything. I would not give this a level four of hold out of five, whatever what we're gon na try and curl it. Let'S try and see if this is activated by heat at all okay, so we definitely have some heat activated styling going on by the hairspray. I definitely feel the hold now yeah. I definitely feel a bit of hold. I would not call it a level-4 hold. I definitely think this is a very, very light hold hairspray, it's just break through it you're into very, very, very light hold hairspray. This might be your go to. It definitely gives you a workable nice light hold with a lot of shine. It'S quite pretty, but I wouldn't call this like a medium hold hairspray and it smells fresh yeah. It'S decent. I don't mind that one, not my cup of tea, moving on up next, we have another OGX product. This is supposed to be the same amount of hold as they dub one. Let'S try it on this strand. Okay immediately, look at your getting hold like this. Entire strand is just like glued together. That is what I'm expecting from a medium hold. Hairspray the scent isn't the greatest, but let's now wait this through and put a curl in it. Ooh see I like that, you can very much feel the whole going on look at that bounce you get with that. It really adds a ton of nice hold, but it isn't like stiff or like gelled feeling. So that's great okay, love this like this. This is better, though oh yeah moving, so I really went with the OGX products and last two products I have to try are the Aspen extract texture and the bamboo fiber full, which is they're both just texturize name is tousle spray, and this one is dry. Texturing finishing spray we're gon na try both of these, but I'm realizing that I probably should just picked one brand to go it and just try to all their products, because I just have so many different products. I want to try today and if you guys like this stuff, but you want more of an organized video next time. Let me know next, I could just picked one product line and go with that. Let'S say you this one says it's gon na give you the loose leaved in look separates elevate and define texture without the dry out. Oh, I love that. Okay, we're gon na try to the last section that I have not yet try to anything on and let's just see so it's really wet. I wasn't expecting that. Let'S try this again because apparently you're supposed to really shake it up and then spray very lightly. On the hair, because this just soaked the hair - I mean we don't want that. Oh this ain't, it I'm not getting any texture here, not even a little bit. It actually made the hair softer, it's supposed to add an add mess and height girl. All this did was way the hair down and make it shinier and moisturize. Somebody must have mislabeled this because I'm not understanding yeah, I don't get it and use it on this piece. I'M sorry this is so messy at this point. Do you guys see texture there, because I don't see anything okay? This is an absolute no-go for me and it also has a white cast not working for me. So Oh Jax fiber, full sugar, high fossil spray is gon na be and, lastly, we have made it to the last product. Let'S try it at the natural finish: Aspen extract texture. It gets that matte mess up. Look what day, one a hair with a kick of body inflexible hold this sound more up. My alley shake well finish. Look with 10 to 12 inches away on dry hair for the texture, hold use fingers to achieve desired. Look. I will definitely use my fingers. Ok, I don't know what it smells like. Ok, so we are getting texture with this product. You can see that oh, I just feel a stickiness. I like that stickiness that texturizing products give you actually not bad. If I were to actually like put some curls in this and then put this texture spray in, it would look really nice. Clearly, I don't have a curled or anything right now, but working with straight hair and adding just a little bit of movement with my fingers. It is working, so I am happy with that and giving that tousle look without making it too too far and yeah. Clearly I didn't do a very good job styling right now, but this actually feels very nice. It'S lightweight. It adds a lot of nice texture. It just kind of smells like like kind of fresh hair product smell. I like this. I like this a lot. Let'S see what use this I'm so happy. We ended on a good note, thank God, okay. So this worked amazing, oh boy! Oh my god! What a day of testing hair products it has been! I spent the entire day looking for new stuff, I haven't used before a new stuff that I can try from the drugstore, and I found a lot of great things and a lot of really bad things. But overall, I'm very intrigued with how drugstores have evolved and have a lot cooler products now than growing up really enjoyed a lot of them. Hopefully, you guys took something out of this, and if next time you want to see me, do this video differently doing different brands or doing shampoos and conditioners. I totally can just let me know and give this video a like. If you enjoyed it, I love you and, of course, another product that I can highly recommend is my own glitterati pax mondo use this to smooth your hair out, add holes and moisture and a touch of extra fine mica, which is glitter like they save the environment.

samantha lee: brad: “this is tragic” *talking about the batiste dry shampoo* me with a brand new bottle of it:

AshBaeChamp: For a second I was like 'Brad doesn't wear a mask?' and then... I realized.. it was in 2019... and I cried inside, missing the old days lol

Sabrina Schell: Here are the products Brad said yes to: OGX Dry Shampoo Foam Cake Dry Conditioner L'oreal Sleek It Iron Straight Hairspray Dove Flexible Hold Hairspray (maybe) OGX Fiber-Full Big Hair Spray OGX Aspen Extra Texture Finishing Spray

That’s My Status: Miss Mannequin goes through so much, so it’s nice she gets a self care day.

Bianca Palese: brad buying stuff just because the packaging is cute is the most relatable thing

Savannah Price: Brad: “omg yes it’s only $8!!” Me: ** “that’s a whole hour of work”

Kelly Grace: Everyone: *minding my own business* Brad: *looking like a disco ball with pink boots* He literally does live his extra life

Tawnya McLain: Brad dear sweet Brad, I've been a nurse longer than you've been alive. We use dry shampoos all the time on our patients. And I'm glad you showed us what the best one is because that really helps a lot. So thank you for this video. A plus you're doing a great job

kihella: “Stay away from that” Me: used box dye for over 10 years and wondering why my hair looks like a toilet brush

molly Turner: Brad and his brothers are like when someone asks to copy your homework so you tell them to change it up a bit

Zillennial Freedom: I wish there were a list of products that actually passed the test...

Pinar: With the dry shampoo you are suppose to let the white „powder“ sit on the hair for a few minutes and then rub it out with a dry, clean towel. It takes all of it away and leaves you with dry and clean feeling refreshed hair the white cast completely disappears

Rebekah L.: So as far as Batiste is concerned, Brad was doing it a little bit wrong. First off, the white cast happens with pretty much any spray dry shampoo (I'm sure you know that already but just on the slight chance you didn't); the clumpiness, however, is what happens when you don't shake the can well enough (batiste you definitely have to shake for at least 5 to 10 seconds). Second, he didn't really massage it into the hair, which is what gets rid of the white cast; after that, brush it through to distribute it throughout the hair. And third, which is kind of my own personal preference: I wouldn't spray it directly on the part line or on the top of the head in case the clumpiness and white cast DO happen, because then it's on display to the whole world. I usually lift up sections of hair around the part line, spritz the roots a couple times, and move onto the next section. Batiste has been my go-to since 2017 because it is the only dry shampoo I've used (sorry NotYourMother's) that doesn't leave my hair with grey patches or a chalky or crunchy feel, which is saying a lot, because I have very dark, very fine hair. (I'm sorry Brad I don't mean to be a nitpicker ily and your content so if you read this don't hate me plz)

Chelsey Killpack Beck: Just found out about Brad... now I’m 20 videos deep wondering why it took me so long to finally watch a reaction video! I am kicking myself because I could watch him forever.. BRAD, you are so incredible thank you for sharing your fantastic personality and expertise with the world.

Pfefferminztee :3: Brad Mondo: I better not see any of you put this on your head His whole fanbase: oopsie

Sydney H: I would love to see him pick drugstore brands and do a whole video on each brand about which products are good and which aren’t.

Patricia Smarandescu: So the thing with dry shampoo is, you have to really work it in and that cast goes away. Alternatively, you can use a towel to remove the excess product and it actually does a pretty good job and gives you some extra volume. Not that bad, not worse than a greasy hair day anyway

sophie p: throw back to when you didn’t have to wear a mask to the store

Hanna Meoow: I love how he roasts all these dry shampoos that I wouldn’t buy because I get a super cheap one that works so good but sadly brad can never react to it because it’s the own brand of our german drug store :( (Brad if you ever go to Germany try the balea brand from the German drug store “dm”)

Lauryn: Brad: It's only 8 dollars Me: Oh it's 5 dollars, that's a little out of my price range

Raven T: This was a fun approach, chaotic but helpful. I personally would mix it up when testing products myself. That said, an organized review of several products from popular drugstore or "pro" product lines would be appreciated, too.

Mallika Verma: This video was so helpful and fun! Definitely need more reviews like these and yes please do drugstore shampoos, conditioners and hair masks!! Loveee your content!

akartist 1: Just seeing brad prance around the drug store made my day 100% better!

Cinnamon Girl: You know Brad is a hair genius when his own hair looks good under drug store florescent lighting.

Ava Scarlett: Omg thanks brad do you know how many times I’ve stopped at the hair dye lol thank you!!!! You’ve saved my hair

Deniz: I wanna see Brad Mondo picking up people from the hair dye aisle in the drugstore and giving them color makeovers

Jordan Blanco: With someone that has type 2 hair on a budget and is struggling finding “the one”, I aLWAys love and appreciate more of these affordable product review videos

Brixenta: There’s something very enjoyable about watching you work. You can really tell you love doing hair! Keep being awesome ♥️❣️

lkiop99: “Brad was like stay way from those” me who just dyed my hair with “those” before started watching brad

Brenda.💋: We need more videos like this this was a vibe from beginning to end ☺️

Malorie Butler: Just coming across this video from a year ago.. but can I just say “finally!!!” - I have dark hair and I tried batiste and it left my roots basically grey looking, so I figured okay.. my fault. So I tried the one for brunettes.. well, it didn’t make my roots look grey BUT every time I touched my hair throughout the day my hands became tinted brown! Just awful!!!

Sammi Cadwallader: Dove dry shampoo is one of my favorites. I love the texture and volume that it gives me

lavendervvitch: *watching this during quarantine & seeing brad touch random products on the shelf & then touch his face* wow throwback

Kelsey Miller: Would love to see a professional products v. drugstore products comparison video!

Kathryn Holmes: Brad is the only person who I enjoy being like “I can be poor like you!”

BLSuri: I am here for this! I have been watching you since the old days and love you!! Please do more drugstore videos like this one! I would love to see you testing one type of product from several different lines i.e. shine serums, curl creams/mousse, volumizing products, hairspray, leave in conditioners, even shampoo and conditioner etc.. love you my beautiful babe

Laura Simpkins: 18:19 The L’Oréal heat primer spray from the line is amazing. I’ve used it for years! I tried the ogx one and it was too heavy for me. (Oh… well there it is lol 20:40) My hair is very long and thick, so drying takes forever! I also dye/lighten/bleach my hair, and I avoid heat whenever possible. The L’Oréal spray actually works well when air drying my hair too, and detangles it. Can’t say enough good things about it.

Ashley Bee: Definetly getting that foam dry shampoo ! Wanted to mention that you might be able to donate all those products you didn't like to a woman's shelter nearby! ‍♀️

Autumm Davis: Brad, I am living for this video! I wanna go shopping with you, you are so fun!

Lexy Love: I love that brad respects employees and also put the basket back. So many famous ppl or influencers look down on employees, I love brad he’s so sweet

Susan Kuehne: Thank goodness someone is actually trying these products, I truly would appreciate you doing a Great conditioner after dying your hair. I really need to find me one that's affordable. Thanks, your fan Susan

Heather Chapman-Young: Awe Brad watching you go through the Walgreens isle like I do there, CVS, & at Walmart just made my day! You say what everyone else is thinking...lol I was having a bad day, but your hair shopping made it all better!

roxy: when your parents created your family they literally just...copy and pasted

Amanda Archer: Oh my goodness, I just LOVE these videos! I would be ever so thankful for a drug store brand for natural curly hair.

Victoria Ellison: I use cake products in my hair in my daughter's hair. I love the products. They are really really good

Taylor Carr: Love you! I used to hate dry shampoos because of the white cast it leaves on my hair, but now I really wanna try the OGX foam! Thank you!!

mrrp huh: I love that you did drug store brand reviews. So helpful!!! <3

Danielle Ripley: I would love this being a series. So we can see what works and what's worth the $$$ Maybe testing high end products too Like testing all different dry shampoos, gels, mousse, etc from Redken, Paul Mitchell, Aveda, etc.

Megan Patterson: You and my sweet guy are the reason I'm finally pursuing my passion for hair and make up!

Cyndi Murphy: Thank you for specifying that curly girls might not want to use the dry shampoo foam because of possible frizz! I was thinking about trying it until you said that! Curly crisis averted, courtesy of Brad Mondo!

Donna Oberlin: This was fun! I actually didn’t mind you testing random products.

Robertolo Lets: The bâtisse one , always work great on my hair and i have one from l’oreal and doesn’t leave whites patches. The worst was the dove dry shampoo left my hair greasy and wet looking, i had to re-wash but great video i have a better idea on what kind to choose depending on my hair type:)

Jade: Imagine just having a mental brake down sobbing in the hair aisle picking up hair dye in a box and brad just coming up towards you screaming

Rosie Raptor: Love this video! Would love to see more like these! Also I wanna see a video like this for drug store gluten free products!

Barbara Wojnar: Not gonna lie, this literally makes me want to move to New York and have a visit at a Brad Mondo's salon almost every single day.

Jenn Leah: Sometimes I use that loreal sleek it iron straight on my curly hair - since it offers heat protection and light hold, after I style my curls, I lightly spritz my hair with this just before diffusing. It helps create a cast on my curls while protecting from heat. So any curlies out there: don't be afraid to try this - or other products for that matter - just because it says it's for straight hair. It's just marketing. The ingredients are no different from other products marketed to curly hair. The ingredients that give are giving the sleek look are actually are just for smoothing the cuticle (so frizz fighting), conditioning it, and adding shine & a little hold

Sara Rekunow: Hey Beautiful! I love your reactions...thankyou for being awesome!

Brenda Harcrow: I think a cool idea would be to focus on drug store products that perform on a specific use. Meaning, a video dedicated to finding the best drugstore texturizing product and or best drugstore dry shampoo.

Sheila Denton: Hi Brad, I watch your videos all the time. Just to let u know, I use drug store hair dye and get a lot of compliments on my hair color. I have naturally dark brown hair with a lot of gray in it. So I use Revlon dark mahogany brown then the next week I use Garnier deepest intense burgundy for the highlights. Once its done its beautiful. I don't use salon methods for this because there's too many processes to do and thats not good for my hair

Jag Girl: I love your honest opinion on products, and that you actually love some of them. It helps some of us poorer biatches that shop in drugstores sometimes..

Payton: Do a walmart shampoo test for us! I'd love to know the best affordable hair washing products!

Heather Martin: Why do i love brad even more, seeing him in his element ...like just being a hairstylist....

Emily Shimble: Brad: it’s only 8 dollars! Me: ohhh, *sharp inhale*... 8 dollars, that’s hurtin’ the budget a little bit.

Amber Swain: I found your videos recently on Facebook. I have to say I am in love with you!!!! I've been watching you every morning, and your a great way to start my day. I love how you explain things and keep it real. I'm the same way, and some people just can't handle it. Also, I want to say you're a smart business owner by checking out the other products. Xoxo

SUSIE Q: love your videos they crack me up! Keep making more store bought products please Brad and Thank you!

hotla7: Recently discovered, love watching your videos but definitely wish these tests were done on human models

Marnie Smith: I just love love love the realness of the reactions!!

imaginefun: Brad spending $8 on hair spray: it's so cheap! Me: *living my fullest hair life, literally with Dollar Tree hair gel*

Just Me: I appreciate you trying the drug store products. My mom is disabled with a fixed income and 5 kids two still live with her so her money doesn't go far. I always like to help her find stuff that works and she can afford or that I can buy for her without braking my pockets lol Thanks! Love your content!

sillly kitten: You have to work in the last 3 dry shampoos. I LOVE using them and they don’t leave white casts on my hair after I brush it out. Works great.

Mookie McJunkin: Thanks so much. You're helping us out a lot.

Mary Villella: I love the iron strait heat spray and have let my hair go for three days with it ❤️

lushpaw: But Brad.. you shouldn't tell us not to use box dye.. If we don't use box dye.. there goes half your content

Shelbi Budd: I LOVE BRAD ERIK AND JOHN THEY ARE MY FAVORITE PEOPLE EVER do more collabs you guys are literally the best

LeeAnn Guerrero: Love seeing your personality more of this in 2020 pwease

Just Another Name: I've been trying to find a good dry shampoo for years and always felt like I was crazy because I could never find a good one. Definitely going to order that first one

Lady Genesis: Instructions: *Apply a DIME size amount* Brad: Fills his whole hand with product Miss Manny Quinns' head: Soaking with product Brad: 'Why's it so wet?'

Diane Vitale: LOVE this. Have to see more of Brad's before wasting money with poor results. Walgreen's, to me, is an over priced drug store. Maybe, not so on hair products. Priced a walking cane for a friend only to find the very same at Walmart more than 1/2 the price. Turned me off to Walgreen's.

April Combs: I love the idea of a whole line of one product and could you do a drugstore shampoo and conditioner review. Xoxo

Lisa Joy: More, more, more!!....but I like how you compared different brands of the same or similar products❤️❤️

Kaylee Naranjo: I always used box dye for my hair, but the last time I did my hair was at a salon. and ain't nothing wrong with box dye but professional color has more effects than box dye.

M3t4l DRA60n: Q: What do Brad Mondo and Jefree Star have in common? A: They make us feel poor.

kelsey simoes: Brad: "I better see none of you put this on your head" Me: * putting box dye in my hair while watching this video *

A.Marie: I’ve used all the high end dry shampoos which do absolutely Jack shit in my hair tbh it makes it way more oily than before and all the ones you tried that you hated are some of my favorites. My favorite is the dove one tho I never and I never get white casts

🤗Pretty Girl & Bones🤗: Was so happy to see you try out OgX brand... I love their shampoos and conditioners and that dry shampoo is amazing and when mixed with the Cake dry conditioner it works pretty well with my curly hair and I have past my hips kinda long, brunette, super thick, curly hair lol but I've always loved OgX I've just never used hairsprays or anything like that in my hair, I just use shampoo and conditioner and then a frizz serum/creme and then in between I use the dry shampoo and conditioner and it works so was happy to see you try some of the products I use for once lol loved the video as always!!!!!

Sitho Sibanda: No one: Not a soul: Not even Eric and Joe: Brad: wearing the fanciest suit jacket, pink pants and shoes, and the fanciest sunglasses.... in a drug store

Jackie Rodriguez: I love how Brad is always looking out for us curly haired people, not a lot of people do that and forget all about us

Rob Angel: Brad going to the store: beautiful model, hundreds of dollars, Red carpet ready Me going to the store: looking like I survived a hurricane in sneakers, an old tee shirt and shorts Brad's so fancy love him ❤️

Tina Roberts: I have used box dye since I was 16, I am 58 now I still use it, my hair is in great shape and down to my waste and layered. I occasionally get streaks put in it for depth but I have never had a problem with box dye.

Raven Keyes: Thanx for the direction when shopping drugstore products! Just recently subscribed ; when you walked me through at home bleaching. Turned out great thanx to you. Enjoy your videos, can't wait to try some of your products.

Nayelin J. Santana P.: I love how excited he gets at shopping, just like me, I just can't stop ❤️

Teri Doster: Brad: reads instructions... *"dispense dime sized amount"* Also Brad: dispenses and uses a huge handful... wonders why the hair is soaking wet

Kathy Walters Shadrix: I would like to see you test a full line of one brand...yes!!!

Ann Payne: I liked the way you put this video together. It’s a true drug store experience. Your comments are the dialogue we all have going thru our heads when wondering if we should buy or not. I learned a lot.
