If you like, hip-hop reviews, grooming, skincare, fragrance and videos like this very one, then chances are you're gon na love it right here. Please do press subscribe right now, okay, it is uh, i say first thing in the morning: it's not really i've done quite a bit of work already, but i've showered washed my hair and i thought i would kind of just have a little chat with you about Um some of my favorite products at the moment, hair products and kind of what i'm doing with them in order to style it. So a chat and a do um. This new space here is my like wardrobe dressing room studio. I don't know um it's almost there. It'S a bit of a mess, but i thought i'll start using it. Also. The light might be a bit in my face, but we're gon na go wild, so i have been um kind of like changing up the shampoos and conditioners that i've been using and one of the ones that i'm still still sticking with and i've got like. Maxi bottles nioxin system, one um - this really has just become a bit of a routine. For me, no oxygen is about scalp health. I think, like thicker, fuel hair comes from the scalp, so i'm still using this. I get a lot of comments. Saying. Are you still using nioxin the answer? Yes, i'm still using nioxin. I just like the way it makes my hair feel and my hair is it's looking pretty good in terms of health, so i'm happy with it. I do look after my scalp and i think it's really important. I do use a lot of products. I do use a lot of heat. Well, i used to use more um, but it's feeling good another, really great shampoo and guys. I would really really recommend this is ocean mist by sashawan. This is like literally volume in a bottle. This is what i use today. Um, shampoo and condition - and you can see let me come in it - just really fills the hair with all this weightless volume and actually what i've been doing. A lot of is on the days that i wash my hair, i'm washing my hair more often than normal. I know i've said like don't over wash your hair, but i'm just touching it so much when i'm sitting, i feel like i've got my hands through my hair, i'm like playing with it and i'm taking the grease from my hands and putting it into my hair. Don'T do that? Don'T do that robin! I need to tell myself um, but when i am washing it, this has been great shampoo, conditioner and then, throughout the day, i've just got this really great volume in the hair, and it's maybe just a case of then just moving the hair out of my face Or tucking it, but it's kind of been a bit of a good to go product than to not do anything else. But when i am styling it actually i'm going to tell you about a leave-in conditioner before i before i move on, and i have found that my hair can sometimes feel a little bit dry and it's like feeling like it just needs a little bit of a Boost, i am i'm all about like adding in a treatment when you need it. There seems to be an obsession on youtube with oils. Every other youtube creator. That'S launching some products. Let'S be honest, some products are quite good actually - and i've said this before, but they seem to be like saying like. Oh i'm launching an argan oil, i'm launching this oil, i'm launching this oil. It'S like do you need that oil, so many of these guys, maybe you who are buying these products, you don't need those oils. Your hairs are ready and fantastic quality. You'Re young, your hair, looks great. You don't need this um, so just maybe be a little bit more discerning when you're buying those products and but one leave-in conditioning treatment that i do love by a brand that i love um is kevin murphy and this is leave-in repair treatment. Is that what i call yeah, leave-in repair um, just a couple of pumps of this straight through the hair? I do this on. I'Ve done this, like maybe four times now, and i've freely enjoyed it in the morning and just left it in my hair and then, by the end of the day my hair feels like bouncy. It feels conditioned, it doesn't feel overly done. That'S what i sometimes find with these oils. Your hair just feels a bit silky smooth. You know we still want it to feel rough. We still want it to feel textured. I say rough, not in like a oh god. That'S sharp, but like a rough as in like it's got texture, it's got movement, it feels like it's got body and this does that doesn't strip it out i'll link all of these um, but in terms of by the way that wasn't me having a go about Youtube creators - i know i'm gon na - have someone saying was that meant for x? Was that meant for, while probably um, but no just just be careful with the stuff you're buying? You don't need to buy loads and loads and loads and loads of products. This guy with loads of products here, but that's my job and i next would still do like a thickening treatment, um a thickening treatment just to give it the light is coming down just to give it a little bit more body. I use a thickening treatment more as like um, the pre-styler phase, so whatever you want from your hair and i'm going to be talking more about different pre-sellers, what they do and what the right one is for you that's the important thing here. I use products because they work for me, but i'm also going to tell you about the products that are going to be perfect for you, because it's not just about me it's about talking to you guys, but i am about thickening treatments, because i want my hair To look like this almost like too big, this is go big treatment by bumble and bumble, and i just put a couple of spritzes into the hair. You can put this in towel dry here. You can put this in damp here. Just make sure it's not totally soaked um. I kind of go overboard with this, but this is light enough. It'S not sticky! It'S not going to weigh the hair down, but what it does is just wrap the hair in order to get your hair dry. There'S heat protectants in that and then start to kind of move the hair into the position that you want. So i'm going to go medium heat fast speed and we can kind of just get through this bit. Okay, you can see the hair has got more um body, it's kind of got more direction to it, and that's just because the heat has helped with that product. In order to start later here you want laying the hair. You want always finish on a cold blaster. There you can see if you point too much heat on your scalp or your forehead. It is going to go a bit red, so just be careful, um blast of this cold air there and just take the heat of the hair down seal the cuticle up the shine. It'S all the stuff i see on this channel so much, i'm all about techniques and i'm all about things that are going to help you so subscribe. If you've not yet done so. Okay: okay, there you go huge, huge hair and because it has more weight to it, the longer the hair is the more weight that my hair has. My hair tends to be very fly away when it was short so like i needed to be piling products and to give it weight to hold it down. Um. A lot of you will have slightly heavier thicker hair and, i would say, head to mamfromself.com. The hairstyle directory is going to be a huge help to you. So you've got fine here, thin, hair, thick, hair, medium sort of hair um. You can press a button and it's going to give you the hairstyles that you want. Also if you've got asian hair, so asian hair tends to be more coarse. It tends to grow really straight. You tend to need to have quite a lot of length in order to have it to be able to stay down, or you want to be keeping it short and there's also some afro hairstyles on there too, and it's going to give you what to ask your Barber and how to style it yourself, i'm loving the hairstyle director, you should say there's so much going on there and i'm really proud of it. I think it is just something that's going to help. So many of you guys um find a hairstyle that suits you. Okay um: what would i do now? I'M looking at the products here, i'm kind of either stopping here and then just leaving it we're still in lockdown in london, i'm not going out. We'Ve just heard that barbers are opening again on april the 21st. I want to say i think, that's it for the 12th. Ah um i'll write it down here um and then we can kind of start to like get back to life proper in june right. I am using a couple of different products. Fat boy, styling cream, was one that has a hair on it that i got more into last year. Um, a lot of my products are still in storage. I'Ve got a storage container up the road from me, and so much is in there, and some of my favorite products are still in there, so these are products i've just been reaching for i like this. This is lightweight. I'Ve used this as a pre-styler, but i've also used this into a bit of styling and then a product that i received about. It must have been about three months ago. Certainly when i was here, a whole box of products arrived and i then worked with them. Uppercut deluxe and their clay, but i've enjoyed this because i thought having longer hair would be harder to use these thicker styling products, but actually they've been great. This just gives it loads and loads of matte texture. You can see it's a bit of a hybrid product, so it's quite waxy, but it goes in um really with a sort of matte finish and i just think it's giving it loads of texture. So i'm not going to use that much. I'M going to use about this with all your products, guys emulsify them, so scoop hands, really warm it up. You don't want fits and if you're getting bits, then you're not using it properly. Just take the time to warm that product up, okay and then i'm just kind of coating, the outsides - i don't want to be putting too much through, because i still want it to look like a little bit more natural, i'm also getting it through the back. But i'm tending just to like get a part in partings with longer hair, are so much easier just to sweep it behind the ear and pull down on the back. I do look like a 90s librarian today, but i'm feeling it and then i'm kind of i don't care about messy part. I'M not gon na get hung up on it. Um there's greater things going on in the world. This is like just a really quick good to go, and i might do this or i might flip it the opposite way: revolutionary, robin revere, lutionary and, if you've been with me for some time, hi. Let me know in the comments how long you've been with me for but flipping it the opposite way your hair grows. My naturally grows from my left, my right and that sits flatter to the head. But if you sort of flip it the opposite way, you're going to get more volume - and i might then do something like that. I mean fairly similar to the last one, but you can just tease the hair either forward like so or back, but there's more root. Lift there might grab a brush and just start to sweep back totally honest. Do i ever do this? No, but this is an option and there you go. I was just going to pop on here and just do like one look, but then i thought oh, i'm playing now, i'm as well, just two three um! Probably wouldn't do this. Look. Probably, wouldn't do the second look, but the first look is what i'm doing at the moment um. So those are the products that i'm really enjoying at the moment. Um, when i get my stuff out of storage, when i get my life ordered when i get this place, sorted and origin there'll be more products coming up, but the products pages on mamfromself.com are literally like most of the products most of yeah. Quite a lot of the products that i've tested and reviewed, and also that you guys have put your own review on so check that out i'll put that in the cards there.
