Mielle's Pomegranate and Honey leave-in thanks to you!! I have also used Pantene's Gold Series Hydrating Butter-creme.
Yess! Great choices!
Your channel is very helpful. It's actually empirical. A relief for those of us who need to have our hair regiment simplified as much as possible.
So good to know which alcohols to stay away from! So much easier to look at the ingredients and say, nope it's not good! Thanks so much Tanya!!
Great video! Right now my favorite moisturizer is the Adwoa Blue Tansy Leave-In conditioner. It is very moisturizing under my wetline and eco styling gels. The moisture also lasts for over a week, about 2 weeks for me. I do not even have to re-apply. Thanks for sharing this info!
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Melanin’s Twist Elongating Style Cream!!!
Following a UA-camr I put baking soda on my hair with vinegar... I has to sadly watch all my hair break off.....Thank God for your other hair care videos that helped...😢
I just started using Shea Moisture Manuka Honey &Yogurt leave-in conditioner. It's in the baby blue bottle. It makes my hair so soft and moisturized. I really love it!!1 Thank you Tanya for sharing!!! Sending you love, light and good deeds.
I am enjoying your videos. So much good information and I love the breakdown of your explanations about our hair, skin and follicles.
My fav moisturizer is the mane choice 3 in 1 leave in conditioner 😊
Auntie Jackie's quench leave in conditioner is the best that I've ever used for my low porosity 4a hair
Mielle Avocado Moisturizing Hair Milk is my favorite leave-in moisturizer. As a backup, I use Camille Rose Aloe Whipped Butter Gel. This Sunday is wash day! I will be using @iamQueenelite Fenugreek Leave-in Moisturizer for the first time.
my favorite moisturizer is Honey Dew by Camille Rose. I use it to detangle or when my hair just feels dry. She is a must have.
Am loving the Aussie moist and my deep conditioner shea moisture manuka honey witch I recently tried and living it. Thank you Tanya 😌
Awesome!!!! I am liking the Miele shampoo in the green bottle.
Omg, this video was so GOOD!!! Thank you very much for your expertise and for being so amazing to our curly hair community! My Curlfriend Crew led me here because you're fantastic and I can totally see it! ✨I'm definitely sticking around for more! 💛🙌🏾
I am currently using a curl cream from curl mix as my moisturizer, without layering in any other leave in.
My favourite leave in moisturiser/conditioner is Creme of Nature Pure Honey Break Up Breakage Leave-In Conditioner. My hair is going through a weird dry patch and that seems to give it instant moisture.
Right now I’m using TGIN Green Tea Super Moist Leave In Conditioner
Thanks for the info
Great choice! :-)
My current favorite hair moisturizers are the Adan Idet super softening leave-in conditioner(leaves my hair moisturized for up to a week)and Rhed & Maya Joy leave-in conditioner(leaves my hair moisturized for 5days).
Right now i am loving a blended mixture of aloe vera, raw honey and avacado oil. Somtimes i add peppermint essential oil to the blend. It makes my air so hydrated and soft.
Right now, I'm using Camille Rose Honey Leave-in conditioner... love it!
Good choice! :-)
Camille Rose is 🔥
I'm loving the Mielle's pomegranate and honey leave-in. It smells so good, but I'm gonna try Camille Rose's. It's seems honey is the way to go.
Isn't it sticky? Also, does it attract ants in summer? It looks like straight honey 😅
I'm using "Pantene Leave-on Detangling Milk" as a rinse out conditioner and my hair loves it. It make my hair soft and shiny. I'm very impressed by this product.
Thank you. My go to moisturizer is Design Essentials Deep Moisture Milk Souffle.
Water and hair grease as a daily moistuizer before combing my hair. Thank you for this video
I am 63 yrs old with low porosity thin hair and my favorite leave in is TGIN MIRACLE REPAIRx protective leave in conditioner, and QHEMET BIOLOGICS OLIVE AND HONEY HYDRATING BALM. They keep my hair moisturized for days😊
My fav hair conditioner at the moment is the Softee Hair Food Green conditioner. My hair LOVESS it! It has lots of emolients such as Chrondus Crispus, and using it with your 20/80 ratio tip is working wonders! My hair feels so soft and pliable. Your content is Godsent!!❤❤
Thanks for this tip, Eden! What is the 20/80 ratio tip?
@Ileana Santamaria It's when you mix your leave-in conditioner with water, but you have to make sure that there's more water than conditioner because water is the hydrater while the leave-in is the moisturizer. It does wonders, the perfect refresh to any style too!
Sorry for the late reply
Soultanicals is amazing right now! Any of their detangling products as leave ins work amazing on my family’s type 4 hair
Using Pattern brand leave-in and detangler. Love it. Using salon products to wash and condition. Need to seal the cuticle in the shower with something that ph balances in the final rinse tho!
Favorite hair moisturizer: I love Living Proof Curl Elongator so much right now
Can you dedicate a video to split ends? How to treat them, product recommendations, minimize, science behind them, if they can truly be gotten rid of.
I have low porosity hair and have a problem retaining moisture. I was introduced to Qhemet Biologics Alma and Olive Oil with Castor Oil Heavy Cream. For the first time in my life, I have been able to retain moisture and have soft to the touch hair. Where I have bald spots they are growing in. A little bit goes a long way. Wonderful product.❤❤❤
I was just eyeing that the other day, the ingredients look good. I love that there's no coconut oil in it because my hair hates coconut oil 😕
Wow, I’m EARLY!
heey 👋🏽
Thanks for this video, love all your videos. Very informative ❤️
You are so welcome! :-)
My favorite moisturizer is Healthy Kinks Botanicals Leave In conditioner
My favorite daily moisturizer is the As I Am So Much Moisture Moisturizer.
Yess! Thank you for sharing!
My favourite leave in is Camille Rose to Rice Milk & Macadamia Oil
For my son's thick, type 4 LOW porosity hair, the favorite was Aussie Hair Insurance Leave In spray. THEN they moved the ingredients around and I think 1 or 2 were removed. SIGH I'm not sure I have a favorite for me. Probably why I struggle. 😉
Camille Rose Curl love moisture milk
Good choice Cheryl! :-)
I love the whole line👍🏼
I just got it yesterday and I love it! It moisturizes my hair and makes it shiny
Camille Rose coconut water leave-in The Goat. I think I have been using it about 5 years now 😊
Wow! That’s a good sign!
I had did the Cherry Lola treatment which uses baking soda. I didn't notice any of the problems you mention.
Cherry Lola is different then just using straight baking soda on the hair; that's what I'm referring to in this video.
Had to stop using Carol's Daughter hair products, like her CoCo Creme and Goddess Strength lines because it was drying the crap out of my hair. After research saw that most of her products contain Isopropyl alcohol🙁. My hair was always dry, breaking, splitting and started looking dull. I also have high porosity hair which made it worse. Found myself constantly needing to trim my ends just about every month. Now that I switched to products that don't contain it my hair has been healthier, shinier and thriving....my favorite moisturizers at the moment is Soultanicals Frizz Whiz leave in, Soultanicals Marula Muru Moisture Guru Butter, Soultanicals Sprout Twisting Butta and Qhemet Biologics Detangling Ghee. Couldn't name just one as they're all equally fantastic for my hair so far
I LOVE Qhemet Biologics! Her products are all so good, my hair drinks it up.
@@MEAJJEKL L ove Quemet Biologics products too! Their heavy cream is also a favorite that stays in rotation and same ☺️. Started using her products a year ago and mad at myself for not trying sooner😩
same
Yup. I don’t even do research on most of these brands. I go how the hair feels and if it doesn’t feel good I throw it out. I’m usually right on the money and the products I throw out are getting sued and cancelled months to a year later. Hair should feel moisturized 😂 🤷🏽♀️ . It shouldn’t feel straight like it’s had a permenant chemical process and it shouldn’t feel dry.
None of them were ever good, they've all been super drying
PLEASE. Do a video about oils that can/can’t penetrate the hair.
I tried a news hair moisturiser made in my country and I love it ...its called crousaint
Excellent! ❤
I have a background in chemistry (engineering) and I give high props to you for SLAYING those chemical names. Despite my years, I *still* sound like hooked on phonics when trying to pronounce compounds. 😅😅
I like the Kuza moisturizer and Mielle Rice Water hair milk
I ❤the Oak & Aloe by Nowiamnappy (Michelle)
I appreciate you sharing all your knowledge! Are all smoothing/ keratin treatments damaging or just Brazilian one? Are others safe as long as they don’t have formaldehyde?
I am love Shea -pro by Aphogee. It’s a leave in moisturizer
Thank you for the video!
Do you braid your own hair?
I use curl mix, leave in and deep conditioner
Great choices!
Happy Friday 😍
Happy Friday!! :-)
I have not found a leave-in that works for me. I'm still looking. However, I do like Natural Oasis products to keep my hair and scalp moisturized. I used them before I went natural and the products are great for keeping my hair moisturized.
I love TGIM and Tracee Ellis Ross line
Yess! Great choices!
Thanks for all the info, can Hawaiian silky miracle worker 14-in-1 used on high porosity hair?
Thank you sharing, how about shampoo bar?
Hello. New follower, and i wanted to know if the Aussie shampoo is good to use ?
Hey!! I'm Loving my aloe vera and whole clove juce suggested by you on one of your previous videos so Thank you!!! ❤❤❤ My hair and scalp have come from a dry, flaky, itchy, scalp pimples, irritated even after wash day scalp to moisturized, comfortable and at peace scalp plus my hair is healthier and holds moisture longer. ❤ Thank you Jesus for you!!👐🏽✊🏽💃🏿
I love aloe but I have never tried cloves.
What is the procedure to mix it please?
Blue m grease and Classic As I am leave in conditioner!
Hi & Tfs can u tell me what’s a good hair moisturizer for natural hair so much out there I’m confused. & I live in Canada so anything u suggest I hope I can get here fingers crossed. Appreciate u sharing your knowledge on hair products 👍🏾
Thank you again for this awesome information!! my favorite moisturizer is EVA NY THERAPY SESSION HAIR MASK!! I love it!! Thanks for sharing EVA NY on one of your curly chemistry videos!
Yess, that's a good brand! :-)
Question! What is your take on the Beautiful Textures Naturally Straight Texture Manageability Kit?
Hi, Is the S-Curl spray safe to use as a hair moisturizer?
Hi! I know you offer one on ones for people starting a hair care line but what about just a one on one for advice for hair products/hair regimen? I have watched a million videos but can’t figure out what my hair needs or even what porosity as it seems I have a mix. SOS 😂 ❤
LoVe your videos ❤️❤️❤️
Hey Sylvia! Send me an email at ilearn@curlychemistry.com :-)
@@CurlyChemistry WILL DO thank you!!! ❤
My 4 year old child's hair is not growing. It has been stuck on that length for long. May you please do a video on how to deal with that🙏🏽
Hope you had a happy Easter! Seems as though I'm liking a Palmer's honey finishing Sheen that I feel has all of the wrong ingredients in it but it's making my hair feel the bomb and keeping it stretched when I want it stretched. Don't know if this stuff can even be purchased anymore but it was a gift to me and I've not seen it in a store. Guess I need to do some research on it
Well if that's the case it has the right ingredients for your hair type
@@semoneg2826 I have the right name now, it's the Manuka flower honey finishing Sheen. You're probably right oh, I'm just concerned it may have something that feels up on my hair. You can apply it to damp hair or dry hair.
@@semoneg2826 come to think of it, not necessarily good because I like the way a relaxer feels also but it's not good for my scalp or my hair
@@sable7114 didn't know you were referring to a relaxer
@@semoneg2826 a relaxer is an example of a product one might like but is not necessarily good for that person scalp or hair. Most products have some kind of chemicals in them some less damaging than others. So, as I said before, just because I like the product doesn't mean it's necessarily good for my hair. I Like sugar too but it's not good for me, it causes inflammation in my body.
Camille Rose Honey leave in conditioner!!
I have to check that product out! ☺️
I love the As I am moisturizer but I am finding it is hard to get so I am on the hunt for a replacement.
Thank you for sharing! Check out my holy grail product videos for different moisturizer options.
Right no baking soda lol I love grease and don't mine petroleum in tiny amount my issue with grease is even when u fine a dye free one they add a parfum perfume not the same with gentle mild essential even with agains dab
Hi. Happy Friday. Currently I’m using ORS olive oil moisturizing hair lotion. Tonya can hydrating facial mist be used on the hair. I have one that has hyaluronic acid and aloe combined and was wondering if I could. In the ingredients it has benzyl alcohol but not the others that you mentioned.
Hey! The benzyl alcohol makes me a lil hesitant, but it also depends on how much is in it...something like less than 1% won't have much of an affect on the hair, so technically it should be okay to use, however if you notice that you hair becomes dry after using it then discontinue using it on the hair. :-)
Have a blessed weekend and you and your family always stay blessed and healthy ✝️🙏🛐🕊️
Thank you Kimberly, you as well! :-)
@@CurlyChemistry 🤗
Moisture Nature Republic 92% alovera gel
Great on body; scalp use with sealing oil in dry weather hydration galore!❤😂😊❤
What do you think about alaffia shampoo?
What abot a shampoo bar? Im trying to use less plastic, so a bar is the next best thing.
Great video. So…no baking soda?! What about when doing loc detox? Any alternative suggestions?
Hey! Since my channel is more curly/coily focused I can’t speak to locs that much, locs are a bit different then unlocked hair. However if you have locs and the baking soda detox is working for you then definitely keep using it. Another alternative however can be apple cider vinegar rinses especially since it’s more aligned with the hair’s natural pH.
How do you feel about shampoo bars?
Isopropyl alcohol and ethanol. Got it 👍🏽
I’m currently experiencing my hair not slicking back when applying gel. Instead it frizzes. It started doing this in the recent months and i dont know why. It’s frustrating
Camille Rose Curl Love Moisturizer Milk
I used to love this moisturizer until she changed ingredients. If you notice a difference in your hair that's why.
It's a classic!
I don’t know if this is a moisturizer but I used Indian Hemp on my strands. Is that alright ?
I love melanin multi use conditioner, and I'm also really enjoying Donna's recipe leave in conditioner.
I also want to say that an exception for bar soap is the shampoo bars. As I am makes a pretty good line of Hair Care bars. They are definitely moisturizing and the shampoo bar is great because you can get right on the scalp and cleanse starting from there.
Thanks for sharing! I have to check out your shampoo bars. :-)
@@CurlyChemistry I travel with one bag with the bars to reduce liquids.Yes please Check Shampoo bars and Castile liquid and bar soap like Dr Bronners. Thanks. Love your channel ok Byeee.
No matter what leave-in I experiment with, I always go back to Camille Rose's Aloe Whipped Butter Gel. It's fantastic.
I’m seeing a lot of Camille Rose in the comments! I have to check more of her products out. ☺️
By chance would you be hi porosity? I am and would like to know if this would work for me
@@christines1821 Yes, I have high porosity, 4b hair that I primarily wear in a wash and go style, so maintaining moisture is key.
Isn't that a styler versus a moisturizer? I like CRN products, my fav is Twisting Butter, Jansyn's, Honey LI,
There are so many things that we put on our hair that is the same pH as baking soda!
How do you feel about baking soda on locs? It seems like a common practice in that community.
African Pride Olive Miracle Oil Moisturizer Lotion
Interesting the honey whole blends conditioner has isopropyl alcohol in it :(
No favs at the moment. I’m relearning my hair. I now live in a country with very high humidity.. so I’m trying to balance style longevity and hair moisturizing. The humectants in most moisturizers will have me looking like a frizz ball 2 mins after leaving the house.
Curl smith, oil in cream
Bar soaps today are not yesterday's bar soaps! Some are loaded with essential oils and moisturizers! What goes on the skin can definitely be used on the hair!
Yes ma’am hair fell out with the perm and dye application a mistake done by hair salon 🤦🏽♀️
Yes, that combination is no joke! :-(
How, Sway?! Cosmetologists should know better!!
I was recommended to use Kismera hair loss control lotion is also amazing
They had better pay for a wig!
I love Nature's Little Secret Banana Leave-in. It's amazing and smell like the banana Now and Later candy.
Love it!
What would you suggest for people with natural hair if their hair dont retain moisture well?
She's got videos on that. Check out other videos on her channel.
So question, would the OGX Ever Straightening Brazilian Keratin therapy conditioner be included in the no go?
That's fine, it's not a true brazilian keratin treatment, it's a regular conditioner, but it does have protein in it which is beneficial for restoring the hair. :-)
@@CurlyChemistry Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️
Mielle moisturizing avocado hair milk 🫶
Thank you for sharing! :-)
Ms Jessie’s Buttercreme.
Yess!
Another thing to not put in hair would probably things like Monistat or other similar products.
Facts!
Wait…Monistat as in the 🐱 cream?? 😮 Or did you mean Minoxidil? No shade, genuinely curious!
Yeah. The girl I get my henna from puts it on her scalp.. Antifungal (same idea as onion mb?)dunno, but her hair is past her butt😆
@@bxrosie04 No they really put yeast infection creams/products in their hair. What's found in those products is miconazole nitrate which is antifungal (aka why it is put in those products). This antifungal helps with seborrheic dermatitis which can be found on your scalp. However there are other products in creams that aren't meant for hair which is a reason why those products shouldn't be used, but people do use them. I'm not sure who, when, where, or how this trend was started, I just know why. It really is a thing.
@@RunninUpThatHillh I know people who do it who have long hair. The people how use it (as far as I know) aren't experienced in the world(s) of trichology, dermatology or cosmetology. I will just stick with products that I know is for hair lol.
Can you PLEASE drop who does your twist
I came back to this particular video to ask what hair you use for your twists💯
Not you starting with the baking soda. I've used it to wash my hair for years as a low porosity girl. I'm not a chemist but I use it diluted either in place of shampoo or before I shampoo. Super cleansing and my hair always absorbs products better after. I've been moving away from the baking soda but only because it's messy and a hassle and I'm trying to shorten my wash days as much as possible. But yeah baking soda was probably my first holy grail 😂😅
Mielle has a deep conditioner with no protein and it melts in my hair.
Ooh which one😮
@@TeeAhhhna Mongongo Oil Hydrating Conditioner
This is my first time commenting but I have been a subscriber for quite a while. I love your content as it has helped me a ton with my hair.
My favorite leave in right now is Mielle honey pomegranate leave in (or whatever it's called 😂).
I have a question about bar soap on the hair. That doesn't apply to shampoo bars does it? I love the ones from shea moisture. They get my hair super clean without feeling stripped
Thank you for your comment! Shampoo bars are fine, I was referring to bath bar soap, like traditional dove white soap.
❤Aphogee
What about shampoo bars? Viora for example?
Shampoo bars are made for hair. Bar soap for the body isn't made for the hair, which is the bar she’s referring to.
Correct! ☺️
