- Hello, everybody, it's time
for me to test some products
that no one asked for.
♪ Hello everybody it's time
for me to test crap again. ♪
A bunch of people asked me
to test some hair products.
I don't know why I'm testing
so many things right now.
My channel, I guess it's
because I can't go anywhere
and I can't do anything
because of quarantine,
because of COVID-19.
So I just sit at my
house and I test products
every single day.
And while it's fun, I
can't wait till it's over
so that I can go do things.
So I ordered the top
rated weirdest, coolest
hair styling products that I could find.
And I tested them out for you guys.
So this is going to be kind
of a review slash experience
slash-
(cool music)
Probably kind of boring video.
But here we go, before we
get started, I wanna say
that this is obviously
not a sponsored video.
No one is paying me to
talk about their products.
No one gave me these products,
I paid for these products.
And I'm gonna give you
a very honest review,
on all of these products.
However, I'm reviewing these
products based on my hair type.
I have short hair and
I have very curly hair.
So I've frizzy curly hair.
So just because some of these
products don't really work on
my hair, it doesn't mean
they won't work on your hair.
It just means we have
different types of hair.
So I'm gonna try to give you
an honest review on how it
works on frizzy, curly hair.
And then tell you if I think
it will work on your hair type,
because a big pet peeve of
mine is when girls come on here
and go, this is the best hair
styling tool in the world.
And it's like only for
girls with really straight,
long hair, or it's only for
girls with really curly,
thick hair.
There's something in my mouth,
I don't know what it was,
but it kind of looked like a bug.
Let's get started.
The first product we're going
to try is The Genie Curl.
The auto curling iron.
I am really excited about this one because
it like sucks your hair in
apparently and curls it for you.
Now I will admit to you guys.
I am pretty good with the curling iron.
I'm pretty good with a straightening iron.
Like I know how to style my hair.
So these products I think are
more for people who are not
comfortable with the curling
iron or straightening iron.
So to me, most of these products,
I wouldn't really use because
I am very comfortable with
what you would normally
use for curling hair.
Know what I mean?
Anyway, let's try it out.
This is what I look like this morning.
My hair is frizzy and dirty.
This is what my hair's looking
like, I slept with it wet.
Not last night but the day before.
So I haven't washed it in two
days and this is what it looks
like.
I have naturally curly, very
thick, coarse, dead hair.
It comes with this hair sectioning
card to show you how much
hair you wanna use.
So it should fit within this thing,
which this chunk of hair does.
These types of devices is really scare me.
The ones where it kinda like
suctions your hair inside.
Like they really freaked me out.
So the instructions say, if
your hair goes on the right side
of the barrel, push the right button,
there's a right and a left button.
And if your hair goes
on the left side of the
barrel, push the left button.
What do you mean right or left?
Like your right or my right.
It looks like you put it this way.
So that outing thing is there,
so if I stick in my hair
this way.
Is it the right side of the barrel,
or the left side of the barrel,
I don't know what to do.
I'm just gonna guess,
Oh God, I am so scared.
Okay, so (indistinct) Oh no,
I'm scared, I hate this kind of
things.
Okay, here we go.
Okay, it's in there.
And it said to hold it
for like eightish seconds,
which I'm not counting,
one, two, three, four
Okay, so she wants to be done.
Okay.
Why are you beeping?
Like relax.
Oh, is that to tell me when to let it go?
I'm so confused.
So there it is honestly like a lame curl.
So let's try this again,
there's the right button.
It's kind of fun that it
sucks it up in there though.
Okay, so does that mean I'm
supposed to take it out.
Here we go.
This supposed to... actually,
no, I'm not gonna lie.
I usually hate these
types of devices for hair.
I think none of them ever work
and it's easier to just use a
curling iron, but this one
might be good for someone
who cannot figure out a curling iron,
because while I would never use this,
because I've just like curling irons
and I've got a lot of
practice with curling irons.
So they're easy for me to figure out.
You don't have to put any effort into it.
You just kind of like,
hold your hair in there
and let it go.
So this might be a good
option for people who don't
understand or don't like curling irons.
'Cause you literally just stick
your hair in and let it go.
I mean, those are curls,
they're not tight curls.
I'm hoping that they'll
like fall a little bit.
You know what I will say this, I bet you
that this would not work on someone
with stick straight hair.
I could almost guarantee that
it would not work because my
hair is pretty coarse and
holds curls very well because I
have naturally curly hair.
I feel like it's a really loose curl.
So I can't imagine on someone
with stick straight silky hair
that this would work.
I don't think it would, but I don't know.
I don't have that kind of hair.
So this is what it does on my hair.
Here we go, it's kind of fun.
You guys, I never like these things.
So I'm like shocked that I'm
like kind of enjoying this one.
But that curl didn't work.
You know it's getting a wave in there.
It's like making something happen.
I think I'm enjoying
this, I think I like her.
I do think if you know
how to use a curling iron,
a curling iron is faster.
I also have pretty short
hair, so I don't know
what this would do on
someone with long hair.
I farted.
So this is what it looks
like without my fingers
being run through it or anything.
They're like, okay, curls.
Like they're not tight curls.
They're more like a loose wave curl.
So I'm letting that kind of cool down.
And then I'm going to run
my fingers through it,
to see what that looks like.
So let's give her a second,
so if I run my fingers
through it, which is what
I usually do with my curls
and it's like this I mean, it's not bad,
it's like kinda nice. I don't hate this.
(upbeat music)
I'm so sorry.
(upbeat music)
I actually think this is
maybe kind of a good device.
I don't know.
Well, actually these curls
are kind of falling now.
I don't know, I think
this is a good thing.
If you don't like curling
irons or don't know how to use
curling irons that's my opinion.
I actually thought this
was a really cool product.
If you like a super bouncy natural curl,
like it looks really
bouncy really classic.
It's not like the now like
beach waves or kind of longer
and straightened out a little bit.
It's like a really
intense, bouncy, big curl.
So if I was gonna go to
like a Hollywood party
and wanted to be like
a Marilyn Monroe type,
I probably use a curl like that.
Out of all the products, this
one was one of my favorites.
I don't know how well it would
hold for girls with super
stick straight hair,
but for hair like mine,
which holds curl really well.
I thought this was a pretty good product.
Moving on, the hot air brush.
My sister-in-law loves this
product, she swears by it.
She thinks it's incredible.
It was pretty cheap.
And it blow dries and brushes
and straightens your hair all
at once.
I have used a product
similar to this in the past.
It didn't blow dry my hair,
but it did straighten and
brush it at the same time.
And I burnt myself on it.
But this one, apparently it gives you
that like classic blowout look.
so let's try it out.
Okay, here is the device
and it's plugged in.
And so it's good, I just fell on nothing.
That's where I'm at that's
my exhaustion level.
You have these settings,
I always section my hair,
came with little Clippy things,
but I'm gonna do what I
know, which is a hair tie.
So I guess you just turn
it on and brush, like that.
It's on medium I'ma turn on high.
(cool music)
Okay, I hate these things.
So I've had stuff sort
of like this in the past
and this probably works really
great on certain types of
hair, it does not work on my hair.
So to put heat on it, that
just blows it and brushes it.
It just makes it frizzy, it's dry.
So I guess there's that, but it's frizzy.
I would never use this
and then just like go out on the town.
I'm gonna continue to use it right now,
do it to my whole head.
So you can see what it would
look like on my whole head.
My hair is wet I took a
shower like an hour ago.
(cool music)
This looks like what my hair
looked like in high school
when I tried to straighten
it like I didn't have a good
straightener because I couldn't
afford a good straightener.
So I used like a really cheap
one that didn't work very well
my thick hair and it looked
like that's just like
a really... it's like kind of straight,
but mostly just really frizzy, oh man.
(cool music)
Okay, so this is what
it looks like, I mean,
it's not horrible, it doesn't look good.
Like I wouldn't go out
of the house like this.
You know what I mean?
It's just really frizzy
and not fully straight.
It's just like fluffy, it's very fluffy.
I think on certain types of
hair, this would be awesome.
I will say it blow dried
my hair really fast.
I have only been doing
this for like five minutes
and my hair is really
dry that's cool, I guess.
But, I feel like now I have
to re go over it all with a
straightening iron or a
curling iron, because I mean,
it looks like this, so I'm
not gonna say it's not great
because my sister-in-law loves this thing
and she has curly hair.
But we have different types
of curly hair, I guess.
'Cause it did dry my hair
and it did straighten it
question mark, but it's super poofy.
So it does not work on my hair.
Maybe someone like my sister,
it would work well on.
She has very straight hair and works well
on my sister-in-law like I said,
but for me this is not my jam.
So she's going in a ponytail for the day.
I feel like, honestly,
I will use this again,
if I ever need to blow dry
my hair, 'cause it blow dried
my hair really fast.
I just wouldn't use it as like
that's my style for the day.
You know what I mean?
So anyway.
When I tried this product, I
thought I would never use it
again.
I have to admit I've used
it pretty much every time
I've gotten out of the shower.
I think it's a way easier
way to blow dry your hair.
I hate hanging my head upside
down and using a blow dryer.
And I hate trying to use
a brush and a blow dryer.
I think it's really obnoxious.
So this actually does blow
dry my hair really well.
I used it today.
However, it does not give me a
smooth, pretty silky straight
haired look or a curled look.
It gives me a very frizzy
look, but it does dry my hair.
So I do think it's easier and
better to use for blow drying.
And it gives my hair a good base.
If I'm going to straighten
it like today, I have these
like kinda loose curls.
It started off with the
frizzy straight hair
and then I curled it.
So I do think this is a good product.
It might work better
on your hair than mine.
I bet it works really well
on girls with really straight
hair and probably most
girls with curly hair.
But for me personally,
my hair is really frizzy
and it's really tight curls at the roots.
So it's impossible to get
that brush really right up in
there in the roots and straighten it.
I'm getting really technical
about this sorry it's probably
really boring, but I
really love hair products.
Moving on the two on
one hair straightener,
curler thingamabob.
So this is the professional
beauty hair tools.
This popped up a million in
times when I was searching
for hair products, Amazon really
wanted me to buy this one.
So this is this weird straightener
that has like a curl to
it.
So like you can straighten
and curl your hair at the same
time.
I don't really see the need for
this one because I feel like
once you figure out how
to curl your hair with the
straightener, you don't need this.
So basically what you do with
the straightening iron is you
grab a chunk of hair, here's
the straightener you go.
And then you twist the
straightening rod and just pull it
down like that so it's like twisted
and then when you let go,
your hair will be curled
in a straightener.
So this is essentially the same thing,
but like the tongues are
like twisted like this.
Let's go try it.
Okay, so I've just curled
this side of my hair
with this thing now
we're moving on to this.
I'm very skeptical about
this, but it came up a lot
in my search for weird hair tools.
This was like basically
shoved in my face and down my
throat.
Anytime I searched for
anything, this thing popped up.
Here we go.
It's got this little
temperature gauge right here.
And you twist this to get to
the temperature that you want.
And I wanted the highest
temperature cause I like to burn my
hair.
It's in Celsius I don't know how to change
that because here in
America we use Fahrenheit.
But that's okay, I don't
judge anyone who uses Celsius
I can handle Celsius.
I just don't really know what it means.
So I straightened my hair
often and I curl my hair with
straighteners often.
So when... this is not on, but
when I do curl my hair with
the straightener essentially this is cold,
but you go like this and
then you just twist it
and then you just pull like this.
So, and that gives you
when it's hot curled hair.
So this I guess helps with
that process I don't know.
It has like a comb kind of
brush thing on the side.
It says it's at the heat,
it happened really fast.
Okay like this it's doesn't feel good.
Whoa it curled, it definitely worked.
I mean, that's a... my
timer oh my bread is done.
I need to go get my bread.
I mean, it definitely curled
it that's crazy for a first try
for it to do that that's pretty wild.
That's a tight curl I'm shocked.
Okay, so I'm gonna put
it here, twist and hold.
I didn't even read the instructions.
I just assumed this is
what you do with it.
It feels like it's ripping out my hair.
Okay that one did not work,
it does not feel good.
It feels very much like it's
going to rip out all my weave.
Okay, I mean it does work.
I think if you are not used
to the action of using a
straightener and doing it yourself,
this might be hard to use and figure out.
Like, am I doing it wrong, maybe?
(upbeat music)
This can't be right like if
it feels wrong, it's not good.
Like it's definitely curling my hair.
You can see it does work,
but it doesn't feel good.
It feels like it's ripping out my hair.
It feels like I'm doing it wrong.
Can you go either way?
I wonder if you go this way.
(upbeat music)
I'm going in the opposite direction now.
Yeah, it goes either way.
So either way you want
to curl it, it will go.
I don't see how this is any
different than a regular hair
straightener, except for the
fact that it feels worse.
So to me, I could be doing
this with my actual hair
straightener and it would be smoother.
I think that the curls are a
little tighter than when you
use a hair straightener.
I mean, I feel like you
can do this with a hair
straightener, but a hair
straightener also straightens
your hair.
So I don't really understand
the appeal of this.
Like that curl didn't even work out.
I don't know, I think this one
is a burst, but it was cheap.
It does work I just think a
straightener might be better,
in my opinion, it does the
same thing, but a straightener
has multiple purposes
'cause you can do this
and you can also straighten your hair.
I don't know I'm not a fan.
Next.
So I guess this gives you a
little bit more of a bouncy curl
than a straightening iron does.
However, I think that this
is not a good product,
don't come for me.
Just because I feel like you
can get the same effect with a
regular straightening iron,
but with a straightening iron,
you can also straighten your hair.
And with this one, you can only
do a specific type of curl.
I feel like a straightening
iron is way better, no offense.
Let's try the next one.
Here's the next product,
it is a wand thing.
What is this called?
It says, do not use in the
bathroom and it is definitely
where I used it.
So this is like beachy wave iron thing.
I don't even see a name for it.
So I don't even know what
it's called, but again,
this was recommended to me a
lot when I was looking for hair
products, so I got it.
I've always wanted to
try one of these things,
but I've never had one.
So I was really excited
to try this one out.
However, I will say, I know
what this curling iron does.
It gives your hair a wave
like it goes like that,
but in the photo of hair it's
like ringlet curls so cool.
I know it's not gonna do that to my hair,
but let's try it out.
Okay, so we're going to
try this bad boy out.
I've seen girls use this
and it looks really awesome.
This smells like it's
going to burn my hair off.
Smells really hot, it
smells like my hair's
going to be gone off
my head in two seconds.
So here we go, my hair is
clean, even though it really
doesn't look at and it has
not been styled at all.
It really looks greasy, I swear it's not,
I just washed yesterday.
I'm just gonna throw this out there.
These types of waves never
really look good on me because
I have frizzy hair, as you can see,
it just kinda makes it
poofy, so here we go.
So we go like that one,
two, three pull it back.
Okay, I mean I guess it's wavy.
Is that what it's supposed to do?
I don't know, I feel like
this is one of those tools,
you have to do it to your whole head.
I wonder if this one you're
supposed to start at the top of
like at the root or if you're
supposed to start at the
bottom of your hair.
When I curl my hair I always
start at the root of my hair.
It just smells like my
hair is burning off.
I don't know guys.
I feel like it's just gonna
make my hair look frizzy.
I just burned myself.
I feel like it just looks
frizzy I don't think it looks
good, but I don't blame this tool.
I feel like I don't have the
right type of hair for a tool
like this.
It reminds me of this, okay.
I used to always wear my
hair in a high burn like this
in high school or I'd
wear it in French braids.
That was the only way I did my hair.
I didn't know how to straighten it.
I was very insecure about
my hair through high school.
I had long hair and I would braid it.
And like I was so jealous
of girls who had silky hair.
'Cause they would braid it
and they'd take the braids out
and have this gorgeous wave.
And I would take my hair out
of braids and I would get
so that's how feel like
my hair is gonna look
when I've done with this,
but I'm gonna keep going.
I'm gonna finish my head
and I will see you guys
in a little bit.
(upbeat music)
I hate it this does not look good on me.
It just looks like frizzy hair
that hasn't been done yet.
I think it's supposed to
look like beachy waves,
but it don't look like beachy waves on me.
I really just fried my
hair for a half an hour
for it to look the same as it
does when I let it air dry,
after a shower, it just looks
frizzy I don't like this.
Anyway, there's that product.
This is easily my least favorite product.
I thought my hair looked terrible after.
And I thought that maybe my
hair would settle and like,
look cute, but it never
did it just got frizzier
and frizzier as the day
went on and I just ended up
throwing my hair up in a messy bun because
it was just so disgusting.
It looked fried it looks not
cute, it just looked really,
it looked really bad.
I've seen a bunch of girls use
this and it looks so cute on
them.
So I think this probably works
really well in girls with
like silky hair, smooth hair,
I mean anyone who doesn't have
frizzy hair.
This probably works well on,
but if you have frizzy hair,
you're not going to get a
smooth, pretty beachy wave.
It's just going to be frizzy.
I think I did it right and
I think the right on my head
was wrong.
You know what I mean?
The final product I'm
going to do for you right
here in my office before your very eyes.
It is this I'm very
excited about this one.
This is a Topsy Tail I used
to use these all the time
in the nineties.
This gives you this like
beautiful loop de loop
look in your hair.
I don't think people still do
this with their hair this is
what it looks like.
I'm gonna do it for you right
now I loved doing this so much
when I was a kid.
I haven't seen this since
I was a little girl.
I'm so excited.
Okay, so it comes with a big
loop de loop, three hair ties
and a little loop de loop.
I don't even need to read the
instructions, I know how this
one works.
So I'm gonna do is I'm
gonna take half of my hair
and I'm gonna pull it back.
So, I'm gonna do half up,
half down little do, okay.
Okay, so I pulled up half my hair.
I'm gonna take a hair tie
I don't even need to look
that's how many times I did this as a kid.
So I'm just going to tie a
ponytail like this in my hair.
And then you take all the hair
and you pull it a little bit
and you put the loop de loop
through this thing and then
you're going to take the point
and you're going to stick it.
My hair might be too short.
You're going to stick
it through can you see
what I'm doing?
Like this and your just gonna poke it
and pull it down like that.
And then you're going to
find the bottom of the stick.
And then you're just
gonna pull it on through.
Cool just simply gorgeous.
I don't know what it
looks like from the back,
but this is what it looks
like from the front.
That's a little messed up, but
who cares, I wasn't looking.
And then you've got like a
cute half up do and it's like,
Oh my God, how did she do
with beautiful prom look.
You know what I mean?
And then if you're feeling
really frisky, you can double it.
I'm gonna put another ponytail
I'ma pull all the hair in a
ponytail and then I'm gonna
take the loop de loop,
put all the hair in it and then
again, kinda push it through
like this, pull this and go
come on you can do it girl,
come on girl.
Look at that a double loop de loop.
I'm ready for the nineties
that's pretty cool.
So this product is fun I
used to do this all the time
as a kid and I loved it.
I don't know that this
style is like in anymore.
I think actually I know it's
not, but it is a fun little
thing to do.
And it does like make
your hair look fancy,
even though it was like took two seconds.
So if you want your hair to
look fancy and like you live in
the nineties, that product is
cheap and makes your hair look
fancy as F.
That's all the products I'm
