I have literally noticed the exact same thing! The only thing is I do spray my hair with water then apply the coconut oil. (I’m not sure if that’s wrong or defeats the purpose😬). Nevertheless, I use to think pre-pooing was pointless because I thought you were just wasting product. But one day I tried pre-pooing with the coconut oil and I have seen such a HUGE difference in the amount of moisture my hair retains. My hair will stay moisturized for almost the entire week until the next wash day! NOW, if I use coconut oil for anything else in my hair care regimen it drys my hair out.🤷🏿♀️I dont know Coconut oil is just one of those things I guess😂😂😂 GREAT VIDEO☺️👍🏾
Nieja West If spraying your hair with water first works then you should stick with it! I think as long as you're not drenching your hair with the water then you're fine. 🙂 ; Moisturized hair for a WEEK?? Girlllll you can not beat that! I'm telling you, Coconut Oil has changed the game for me. But I'm like you, if I use it for anything else besides a prepoo its 👎🏾👎🏾 lol 😂; Thank you so much for watching ❤
Yeah I have prepooed with coconut oil overnight and my hair after wash day has a easier time holding onto moisture. My hair even in twists or braids will feel dry after a day or two.
You are so right! I started using coconut oil for 7 days overnight along w/mist of water and small amount of Cantu Shea Butter. It worked for me b/c my hair is dry!!! I did this when I wore a braid out and yes I had to braid it out every night but it was worth it to finally have soft moisturized hair.
I’m low porosity and protein sensitive. Since I do not use products with proteins in them, I went back to using coconut oil as part of the LOC method for these dry winter months. My hair has been loving it. It’s so soft and stays moisturized for an entire week. It also helped combat itchy scalp.
Housewives62 😍😍😍 I'm so happy to hear that!!! You're absolutely right. Coconut oil can be used as a protein substitute more less like Henna - both strengthening but contain no protein. I think it's awesome u found that it works for both your hair & scalp. I can only get it to work on my hair, but I'll take it! Haha ❤️
I know we all are different, but I just did this for an entire year and didn't get either results. My hair never indicated to me a nay or yay. As of the New Year I have decided to try pre-pooing with conditioner and so far the results from my hair has been ASTONISHING! Of course I just began this so I'm not sure yet. One thing that has definitely improved is the amount of time saved and the extreme pleasure I find in detangling and the limited amount of shedding. I will keep you posted if you don't mind. Blessing to you.
Swtsade J You gave it a fair chance so it's ok! Everyone's hair is different. I'm glad you're seeing amazing results with conditioner prepooing however! I used to do that here & there for 30 mins and it worked well. Please keep me updated! ❤❤
Wow! I'm so glad u did this cause I started my natural hair with using coconut oil but sooo many naturals (like the 30daydetox folks, and others) are putting down coconut oil Shea etc. I'm telling u it works for my high porosity hair. Great job!
Sa Alston Plz stick to what works for your HP hair girl! I had to learn that the hard way with all my setbacks lol. I'm so glad I finally got around to making this video as it was extremely necessary. I hope it will help lots ❤❤❤

I wanted to let you know that I tried this regimen and I’m very happy to report that I’m enjoying very moisturized hair so far!!! I used to use coconut oil all the time but over time it irritated my scalp. It’s been about 2 years and I’ve big chopped for the second time...and last time,April 12, 2017. This journey has been significantly different from the first time due to the tremendous amount of information out there now. Thanks for this video, I appreciate the information and look forward to continuing this journey.
Annette Sinclair Silva Hi Annette!! Thank you so much for sharing! That's amazing to hear 😊❤️ You and your natural hair look beautiful in your profile pic! Coconut oil irritates my scalp as well so I just apply it to the length of my hair & use EVOO on my scalp when I'm prepooing. That balance works perfectly for me 💜💜
Afro Khadisiac oh excellent. I’ll be using the olive oil next time. I actually had used aloe vera gel, from a fresh leaf on my scalp, it has always helped with shedding.
I have high porosity hair & my hair loves coconut oil. It sticks to my hair like glue (and it moves lol) it feels so soft & moisterized I really believe someone's porosity & density can make a difference on what works for each individuals hair. Thanks I feel that way about coconut oil too.
I've had the worst luck with coconut oil BUT that was because I only used it as a hot oil treatment or as a sealant. I think I have just stumbled upon the key regimen I need to incorporate to keep my high porosity strands healthy. Definitely going to work on the overnight pre poo treatment with coconut oil on dry hair and report back in a month or so. The content of your videos are the best for naturally high porosity hair. ❤
Thank you ....for the advice but i don't use coconut oil because i used it all of the time in the past that my hair got use to it and stopped working for me. Now i use fenugreek oil.
Thank you Candace!! I used to document everything in a journal until I decided to make videos lol. Recording is more fun though & its good to physically see my journey in video form. Are you also interested in making YT videos to document your hair journey?! I think you should if so! ❤️
Right now I use a journal because I don't feel like the setup of my room looks UA-cam-ey enough, plus I don't know what new things I can bring to UA-cam
I find that coconut and olive oil just sits on top of my hair. I have high porosity hair. I don't prepoo cus I use lots of gel and I don't think that helps to get the gel out.
Girl!! That gives me hope!! I am so looking forward to trying it on a consistent basis!!!😍😍 you've delivered again lovely!! Let's go healthy moisturized hair!!!😁😁👸👧🙆
Bia Bro Bia you haveee to try ittt! Plz plz let me know if you notice Moisture retention after using it for a little while. 🙏🏾One thing I forgot to mention in the video is that it works best when you follow up with good moisturizing products on wash day. I notice that if I use products that are drying & suck my hair won't be moisturized for long regardless of me using the coconut oil overnight lol. But as long as u use the coconut oil & good stuff on wash day you should notice a significant difference in moisture - esp for High Porosity hair!
Glad I stumbled across this. I actually did a pre poo with coconut oil Saturday. Something I stopped doing. 😣I have High Porosity and it's becoming frustrating. I been watching different bloggers with low porosity. And I feel that I'm not getting where I should in my journey.This year I'm watching High porosity bloggers only lol
I wish I could relate to coconut oil. That type of oil always keeps my hair dry. No matter what I do to keep it moisturized & nothing works out. So I stick to black castor oil!
Tosh Mac Use your castor oil and add a little coconut oil with it and gradually work up to maybe half castor, half coco. I know it's the bomb for skin AND your teeth/gums.
I use to prepoo w/ coconut oil and my hair loooved it. Need to start back doing it b/c my hair felt so good after washing it w/ that method plus you know how these winter months can beee 😥 I'm tryna fix my regimen in general though and your video came just in time 🙏
Infiniti Williams It's never too late Infiniti!! 💜💜 Just try it for a few weeks and you'll already notice your hair improving. It doesn't take too long to see results when you're consistent! 😘😘
So excited for you! I have low porosity hair so I can only use coconut oil if I want a quick conditioning and I'm going to wash it out fast. But my daughter has high porosity hair and it maybe sensitive to coconut oil. I am going to try it again to be sure. However she is getting awesome results with Jamacian black castor oil. So if coconut oil isn't better I'll stick to that. Thanks for this awesome video.
Maybe if you added heat with the 30 min prepoo it may have the same effect as the overnight? I think it's the kind of coconut oil people use that makes their hair dry. I really like Trader Joe's brand, inexpensive & effective. Smells good too. Happy New Year Khadijah!
LaConda Iverson Hey! I apply Coconut Oil to my hair as an overnight prepoo treatment. The day of wash day I shampoo & follow up with my usual wash day steps. I do this only 1x a week. I hope that helps! 💕
Love all the hair tea!☺️ What are your thoughts on Avocado oil? I too am big on EVO... but, I know avocado oil is supposed to be just as moisturizing. Just curious...
I have a high prosity hair and I can relate when you say the moisture stays for one day 😅💔. I started using coconut oil with mixture of other type of oils and aloe vera gel overnight night. I have done it for 2 times so far can. Looking forward to see better result 🙏🏻
Hello! How exactly do you pre-poo overnight without ruining your sheets or your satin bonnet? Do you put a plastic shower cap over your head and then the satin bonnet over that?? Sorry if this is a silly question lol.
Marsha Eileen Hey Marsha!! 😊No worries lol ; Yes I just apply a plastic bag and my bonnet on top. The bonnet I wear does well with not coming off at night. Alternatively u can wear a scarf. My bonnet gets oily so I just have to remember to wash it every week
I've done some research on Camellia seed and Meadow foam oils (both from Edens Garden) have you tried these oils for your hair before and if so what is your opinion about them?
I have been Pree pooing overnight with the coconut oil. I can really tell the difference. When I don't do it. It's a big difference. Thanks. I don't use it when I use the bentonite clay. How about you?
Gloria Smith Exactly!! It's so crazy the big difference it actually makes leaving it on overnight. Yes, I even do it when I'm doing a bentonite Clay treatment the following day. Anytime I'm washing my hair I do it overnight ❤
I don't think so because it's already worked its magic overnight penetrating the cortex. When you shampoo the following day you'd be removing the oil residue, not the actual repairing it did overnight. That's just the way I look at it but I could be wrong Gloria lol. I just like to stay consistent with the coconut oil because I know it's gonna help with moisture retention. If I skip it when I do bentonite Clay treatments my hair isn't going to retain the moisture for that week.
CeeCee Harris Hey CeeCee! I stick with Spectrum's Unrefined Coconut Oil. I always get that brand. If interested I left a link for it in the description box ❤
Hi there my Lil Lively Lotus thanks for the flashback vids loving this, oh and had to say way to slay with the color of that nail polish. One of my favs, now you already know I'm coconuts about my coconut oil. Hair, skin, teeth, even place a spoonful in my tea daily, and sip leisurely. It's not just great for hair, but your entire body inside, and out. I'd also say to try using some avocado oil it's another spectacular one.
Shelly Reynolds Hey Shelly!!! 😊As always it's a pleasure to chat it up with you! 💕 Thank you LOL I try!! ❤❤ You are the Natural queen Shelly! I love the natural approach you take towards caring for yourself. You know I've never tried Avocado oil?! 😨It's always been on my to try list however. How do you use the Avocado oil for your hair?! 💕
Why thank ya I so love chatting it up with you too Curly Q. I enjoy that natural approach not only for the money it saves, but I've really found that many of the products we use from food to soap. Are actually created to eventually make us sick. With me being in the Health Field, and seeing so many folks struggling thru this. It truly made me focus on placing my health first. My Mommy always says Health is wealth, and it's true, no matter how much money you have if you get sick, and pass you can't take it with you. I actually use all these oils on my hair, and body, I cook with many of them as well so I'm also eating them. Avocado oil I use mixed up with all the other oils, and use them on my scalp, and hair. I use it as well as grape seed oil in my lotions, creme's, and body butter's, for my face, and body. Sometimes I'll also use it with coconut oil as a hot oil treatment. It's amazing how many ways you can utilize these oils, and they just keeps giving. I'd say think of them as buffet for your hair. You know when you go to the buffet you want to get a lil taste of all the yummy treats to eat. Well your hair's the same, and once you combine all these oils there are so many nutrients, and benefits that your hair will happily munch up. The only pure oil I eat, well drink is coconut oil, which I simply place a spoonful in with my hot tea. I also use coconut oil as a mouthwash/rinse ( oil pulling ) it's amazing what it does not only for the health of your teeth, but your entire mouth.
Chalsey Wilder I've always found that EVOO works way better as a sealant for me. Plus Coconut oil as a sealant makes my hair hard - that makes me go back to my explanation on how Coconut oil penetrates further into the hair cortex. It's more like a repairing treatment rather than a sealant. That could be why most ppl don't have success with it as a sealant. xoxo

Yes I don't use coconut oil as a sealant either. I only use it as a prepoo overnight. When I first began my natural journey, I read somewhere that coconut oil had greater benefits for your hair when left in for long periods of time, like at least overnight.
I have another question, how do you feel about wheat protein, I hear it's one of those proteins that attracts moisture to the hair, will be using it this week too.
Chalsey Wilder Oh yea u should be fine. I haven't tried that D.C. but I've heard of it. Wheat protein works as light protein for me so Products like that I could use weekly.
Extremely helpful video! I wish you had made it before I jump on the bandwagon of no coconut oil :) I'm back to overnight pre pooing with coconut and my hair is in a better moisturizing place. Great video KD.
natural beauty gang 101 I'm sorry :( but don't feel bad. Coconut oil doesn't work for my scalp lol - just my hair. There's so many oils out there I know you'll find one that gives u amazing results if you haven't already. ❤ Also, Palm Kernel Oil is similar to Coconut Oil in that they both contain Lauric Acid so maybe that's something you'd want to check out.
Afro Khadisiac thank you I will try that me and my daughter have been trying different oils we both have high porosity hair mines been so dry and breaking over this winter
I think that’s y love to deep condition with it because it penetrates the hair. My minimum for deep conditioning is an hour. Yes I break the rules lol. And heat makes a huuuggeeeee difference I believe.
Looking at your video history you have a love/hate relationship with coconut oil 😉 My girls hair is very high po,but since I discovered Bounce Curl gel her wash'nd'go lasts for a full week! Without any remoisturizing or manipulation or anything during the week! Just sleeping with a satin bonnet and that's it.
Maud Heyyy Ik! 😊 Yes lol you know this!! When everyone raved about it I was 100% team EVOO. Now that I know how to use it for my hair I see the hype. ; Omg yes I remember your daughter, how is she doing? Is the ORS hair Mayo still working for her? (I think you told me you got it for her hair from my recommendation) ❤❤
Afro Khadisiac she's fine, thanks for asking! The ors hair mayonnaise is still what I am using for her protein boost, but I am to replace it with the SM high porosity mask soon (it is now available here). Hope it will do wonders for her hair. When she'll be a bit older I will try and do overnight pre poo on her hair as well.
Hey sweets thanks for the info I also have high porosity hair but when I put coconut oil on my hair it feels hard and dry like my hair doesn't like it should I ignore this would you recommend me still doing this method?
Sweet Things Hey love!! Well when I apply coconut oil as a prepoo it kinda melts into my dry tangled hair and I'm able to finger detangle. It doesn't make my hair feel hard at all that way. Maybe u should try applying to dry hair, Leave on overnight & if your hair feels hard by the morning time I think you should pass. By the morning time your hair should feel soft but stronger - not crunchy though. Hopefully that's clear enough lol 😘
I have literally noticed the exact same thing! The only thing is I do spray my hair with water then apply the coconut oil. (I’m not sure if that’s wrong or defeats the purpose😬). Nevertheless, I use to think pre-pooing was pointless because I thought you were just wasting product. But one day I tried pre-pooing with the coconut oil and I have seen such a HUGE difference in the amount of moisture my hair retains.

I think as long as you're not drenching your hair with the water then you're fine. 🙂 ; Moisturized hair for a WEEK?? Girlllll you can not beat that! I'm telling you, Coconut Oil has changed the game for me. But I'm like you, if I use it for anything else besides a prepoo its 👎🏾👎🏾 lol 😂; Thank you so much for watching ❤

I've used over night and used it was eady to detangler before washing. And after washing used it in my LOC method.

Why thank ya I so love chatting it up with you too Curly Q. I enjoy that natural approach not only for the money it saves, but I've really found that many of the products we use from food to soap. Are actually created to eventually make us sick. With me being in the Health Field, and seeing so many folks struggling thru this. It truly made me focus on placing my health first. My Mommy always says Health is wealth, and it's true, no matter how much money you have if you get sick, and pass you can't take it with you. I actually use all these oils on my hair, and body, I cook with many of them as well so I'm also eating them. Avocado oil I use mixed up with all the other oils, and use them on my scalp, and hair. I use it as well as grape seed oil in my lotions, creme's, and body butter's, for my face, and body. Sometimes I'll also use it with coconut oil as a hot oil treatment. It's amazing how many ways you can utilize these oils, and they just keeps giving. I'd say think of them as buffet for your hair. You know when you go to the buffet you want to get a lil taste of all the yummy treats to eat. Well your hair's the same, and once you combine all these oils there are so many nutrients, and benefits that your hair will happily munch up. The only pure oil I eat, well drink is coconut oil, which I simply place a spoonful in with my hot tea. I also use coconut oil as a mouthwash/rinse ( oil pulling ) it's amazing what it does not only for the health of your teeth, but your entire mouth.
How come you don't use it as your O in LCO?
Chalsey Wilder I've always found that EVOO works way better as a sealant for me. Plus Coconut oil as a sealant makes my hair hard - that makes me go back to my explanation on how Coconut oil penetrates further into the hair cortex. It's more like a repairing treatment rather than a sealant. That could be why most ppl don't have success with it as a sealant. xoxo
Afro Khadisiac ahh. Okay. Maybe that's why I can't use it like that

My Friend if Wanted explain this tips No Problem
Wait. That's the same brand I had used. I felt a coarseness with its use so I thought that meant - no good.
Yes I don't use coconut oil as a sealant either. I only use it as a prepoo overnight. When I first began my natural journey, I read somewhere that coconut oil had greater benefits for your hair when left in for long periods of time, like at least overnight.
Hi Khadijah, do you use a cap overnight or without?
Hey!! I use a plastic bag then on top of that a bonnet to sleep with the oil overnight xoxo
Sad for me . I’m allergic to coconut oil😔
I have another question, how do you feel about wheat protein, I hear it's one of those proteins that attracts moisture to the hair, will be using it this week too.
Chalsey Wilder Hey girl ❤you know my hair loves protein so I'm not against it lol. Which product with wheat protein are u gonna try?
Afro Khadisiac a deep conditioner. By bask and blooms
Chalsey Wilder Oh yea u should be fine. I haven't tried that D.C. but I've heard of it. Wheat protein works as light protein for me so Products like that I could use weekly.
Afro Khadisiac awesome
Hello Ak how are you love the VIDEO 💫💞💞
nevaeh tieasha hey Nevaeh! I'm good!! How are you and the girls?! Thank you so much 😘💕
Do I wash out the coconut oil the next day? U didn't say!
I'm sorry about that Veronica! Yes, I wash it out the next day. I do two lathers with shampoo to remove the Coconut oil and previous buildup.
@@AfroKhadisiac thank you pretty girl!
Extremely helpful video! I wish you had made it before I jump on the bandwagon of no coconut oil :) I'm back to overnight pre pooing with coconut and my hair is in a better moisturizing place. Great video KD.
Me too!! 😩 Hopefully ppl will eventually revisit it because it's amazing!
coconut oil doesn't work for my hair 😭😭
natural beauty gang 101 I'm sorry :( but don't feel bad. Coconut oil doesn't work for my scalp lol - just my hair. There's so many oils out there I know you'll find one that gives u amazing results if you haven't already. ❤ Also, Palm Kernel Oil is similar to Coconut Oil in that they both contain Lauric Acid so maybe that's something you'd want to check out.
Afro Khadisiac thank you I will try that me and my daughter have been trying different oils we both have high porosity hair mines been so dry and breaking over this winter
I think that’s y love to deep condition with it because it penetrates the hair. My minimum for deep conditioning is an hour. Yes I break the rules lol. And heat makes a huuuggeeeee difference I believe.
Good info, as usual. 💜
Nah Thank you!! 💕
Afro Khadisiac You're welcome, doll.😊
Looking at your video history you have a love/hate relationship with coconut oil 😉 My girls hair is very high po,but since I discovered Bounce Curl gel her wash'nd'go lasts for a full week! Without any remoisturizing or manipulation or anything during the week! Just sleeping with a satin bonnet and that's it.
Maud Heyyy Ik! 😊 Yes lol you know this!! When everyone raved about it I was 100% team EVOO. Now that I know how to use it for my hair I see the hype. ; Omg yes I remember your daughter, how is she doing? Is the ORS hair Mayo still working for her? (I think you told me you got it for her hair from my recommendation) ❤❤
Afro Khadisiac she's fine, thanks for asking! The ors hair mayonnaise is still what I am using for her protein boost, but I am to replace it with the SM high porosity mask soon (it is now available here). Hope it will do wonders for her hair. When she'll be a bit older I will try and do overnight pre poo on her hair as well.
Hey sweets thanks for the info I also have high porosity hair but when I put coconut oil on my hair it feels hard and dry like my hair doesn't like it should I ignore this would you recommend me still doing this method?
Sweet Things Hey love!! Well when I apply coconut oil as a prepoo it kinda melts into my dry tangled hair and I'm able to finger detangle. It doesn't make my hair feel hard at all that way. Maybe u should try applying to dry hair, Leave on overnight & if your hair feels hard by the morning time I think you should pass. By the morning time your hair should feel soft but stronger - not crunchy though. Hopefully that's clear enough lol 😘
Sweet Things also all brands of coconut oil are different. It could be down to the coconut oil you use
