I'm not sure if this is for me, but I'm replying 😏 I only use one a month as it's hella messy and pretty long to prepare. But I use it as deep moistorising clarifier. I shampoo with melted black soap.quick detangle with whatever conditioner I have on hand, mix my clay mix I usually add alma powder (Indian conditioner) boiled marshmellow root or horestail (both are conditioning to the hair and promote hair growth) and ACV, rinse out and a last rinse with rosemary water. It's a lot I know hence once a month. But my hair has grown super thick, strong hardly any breakage and stays moisturised until my next general wash day which I do weekly. @@lilyvelly2530
I’m so happy I found this comment! Being mixed my curls are like 3b-c but I absolutely love Katherine videos and this routine is so natural and interesting I’m waiting to get all my ingredients to start the journey I’m so excited ❤
As an Italian I can say that I use olive oil for my hair for my nail cuticles I shine my boots with it and all leather and it's all around oh then I use it in cooking of course they use it in smoothies but we use it for everything
Thanks for sharing your routine. I've been using goat milk soap to wash my hair for about 3 years now, but I've been thinking about more natural techniques. About 2 months ago, I got in a hurry and used shampoo and conditioner for the first time, and noticed the next day that about 2 to 4 inches on my hair had broken off. 😳 I've never had that happen before. Ever. I'm so glad that you're helping so many of us to find more natural and healthy alternatives in hair care. Thank you. As a side note. If your home has a septic system, don't let the clay solution go down the drain and into the tank. You'll need to spend 1000s of dollars to have your tank pumped every few years. Instead, use the clay and rinse it out into a trough you can empty outside, or use it in an outdoor shower.
today I just washed my whole body and hair with liquid clay, it was such a fun experience. I had the clay in this big glass bowl in the shower with me, i was dipping my head in it and putting the clay all over myself, I rinsed everything thoroughly and I can say i've never felt this clean in my life. No synthetic or even natural chemicals has ever gave me this experience!
isn't it strange as we grow up we're taught to think that dirt and mud are "dirty", like it has a negative energy around the word. Yet it literally, cleanses us. It's almost like someone or something doesn't want us knowing this information :'(
soil is a formidable cleansing machine! In parts of Africa, soil was used for centuries to clean dishes. And in the absence of water, Muslims can use soil instead for ablution 🙂
Capitalism :( Luxury hair care products and companies = big money. Why use clay and oils when you could use this $60 conditioner? And then this $60 hair serum and then all the other products too.
It makes sense they wouldn’t want us to know. Adam was formed from the earth and Eve was created from Adam (part of the earth) so it makes sense’s that things from the earth are good for these bodies (food, elements, minerals etc) the (evil) powers of this world do not want you to even know who created you, who died for you much less what is a better choice to take care of yourself here.
Beautiful hair! My daughter and I have been using these techniques and following you since November of 2022 and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Less washing is saving time and the products actually are less expensive than modern shampoos and conditioners.
I have dry straight hair and the clay she uses makes my hair so soft and gives it so much body. It’s lovely. Leaving it sit on the Jaír about 5 to 10 min really helps take the oiliness out but my hair feels soft and amazing
I have a long wavy hair and despite having a cosmetology license and access to professional products, it has been hard finding the right shampoo and conditioner for my particular hair type and texture. I tried your clay hair wash for a few months and my hair loves it! Waves are shiny and defined, and my hair and scalp feel clean. I still shampoo and condition every now and then after coloring my hair, but use this wash quite often now. Thank you for sharing! 🙏🏼❤
Very nice! Thank you! I have an oily scalp so I will try the bentonite. FYI: I learned first-hand a decade ago that most bentonite clays are laced with lead. After having been notified, and realizing I had symptoms, I searched for a natural detox (which worked) and discovered from a NY doc that the only pure bentonite is from WYOMING and is called Pascalite. Small, family-owned business. Pascalite is very moisturizing, too.
My hair definitely got better with a boar bristle brush. It helped me this summer. I manage to remove the sweat and the build-up easily and continue to wash my hair each month. Thanks to you 🌸🌺🤸
Gorgeous! I’ve been using your techniques exclusively since January. My hair has never been happier. And it also gives me peace of mind knowing all the ingredients are from products I’ve made or know firsthand. Thank you, Katherine! ~Megan G
Katherine is a beautiful vision of mother earth.I have been using her recipe since January also I am amazed how much it has grown, how healthy it looks and feels beautiful.Thank you Mother Earth ❤
Agreed! I have been doing this for over 6 months now and I can easily go 1.5-2 weeks before next wash and my hair/scalp are not dry. When I used conventional shampoos I was dependent on washing daily or every 3 days as it made my hair more dry or disrupted the pH balance and created over secretion of oil. Thank you for sharing and inspiring women to use natural methods.
Hello! Wondering if you do oil treatments and able to wash all the oils out with just clay and ACV. I’m having an issue with my hair being greasy after after the wash , from the oil treatment the night prior. Maybe add more clay ? Thanks !
African Pride Hair oil that you can buy at Walgreens grows hair quickly. Just apply it right after you wash it and then brush it. During covid my hair was only 3 inches long because I kept it short. Now it's almost to my belly button and I don't have to mix any crazy concoctions
Love them❤. My absolute favorite is 🎉peach silk blouse ,taupe silk skirt, long coat: ❤Other favorites: -Gray sweater,gray pants, black scarf, white sneakers, -beige outfit pants, long coat , -light color fringe skirt, -peach silk blouse, taupe skirt long coat, -lacy puff evening skirt, -red and white long skirt long coat.
I ve said this before but.... You are one of the most beautiful women I ve ever saw . And the long hair suits you . Your curly long hair is amazing and also the color is beautiful .
@@kathyhubel6794 and that is also, very true !!! I love observing people around me and be surprised that their beauty in the most surprising forms, especially when you observe them act from their character and personality. Some people have such a beauty, that it is not the standard one, but one far more dangerous that burns from within. Dangerous because it makes you doubt all you ever knew about what society imposed taught you about " beauty"
I use an herbal like clay ,,add few drops of dr. Bronners, almond Castille and water...wash 2.5 weeks..no conditioner ..my hair like yours, curly, long and prone to tangle...after almost dry I apply a beautiful combo oil I buy from a local distributor...it's beautiful oil...I always braid my hair after washing and detangle later or next day. At night always braid at nite for bed, curly hair must be protected and it's dry, but so healthy now from your videos...add oils as needed through the weeks with bore brushing..my hair is mid back length or longer being older it's still OK to have long pretty hair, as I keep it off my face with barrettes and or soft hair ties in a ponytail and or braid it. TY Katherine for this demonstration of hair washing...the chlorine in our water has always been a problem for me...I can't go in pools either....very dry skin and hair but washing up to 3 weeks helps me stay away from chlorine...and lots of care and oils...maybe you can address that issue...my psoriasis is pretty much gone..on my scalp..dermatologist says keep doing what you're doing...so happy 😊...it's OK for older women to have long hair if they like to and use beautiful oils to keep it healthy...
I have thin hair that is almost shoulder length. Im using rice water shampoo and conditioner. I use honey instead of soap twice a week from head to toe. Have you tried honey? Its great as a facial. Just use warm water then wash with honey. Let set up to 5 minutes. Then wash with warm water. You will smell like honey. I have used coconut oil as a mask and a mix with honey. I suggest you try adding a egg that is beaten with oil and honey. Using a bbq brush brush this on your scalp and from roots to ends. Then let stay 24 hours at least. You can do this several times. Then wash out. Your hair will be hard but it will be very soft afterwards.
I may try that egg honey and oil...in the past I tried something similar but didn't work that well but this recipe using oil makes the difference as opposed to mayonnaise...TY.
Love this routine and your calming video and voice. I’ve been using this routine for years and once in awhile I will try a “natural” shampoo and I go right back to the clays. Your hair is gorgeous! 💖🌺
I tried this routine for the 1st time and OMG, my hair looks amazing!!! I have curly hair (3b, 3c) and my curls are really defined and shiny for cheap (my normal routine costs 176€ vs 37€ here without counting the cost of tools). Let's see how it goes in the long term, I hope to see growth. I did pre-poo with coconut oil, detangled with my hands, did 4 braids (even though my hair is way shorter), washed with rhassoul (I let it sit for 3 minutes), rinced with ACV that I let in my hair (I used to rince with ACV a few years ago so my hair is used to it), then I styled it with my denman brush and flaxseed gel (I put some hibiscus in it for the color), let my hair dry first with my diffuseur in cold air then naturally and I finished with broccoli oil (known for being light on the hair and is anti frizz). I don't know how long it will lasts, I hope it will stay that way for at least 3 days then I will do protective hairstyle. I hope I will remember this comment to do an update for 1st month 3rd month, 6th month and 1st year.
You have gorgeous hair!!! Thank you for sharing your routine!!! I used to use rhassoul clay but stopped because it’s so messy. The benefits are definitely worth the clean up. ❤❤❤
GORGEOUS, your hair is perfect 🥰 If I could choose a curl pattern. I would choose yours. I learned to love my 3c/4a hair. My hair shrinks a lot, but it's healthy.
Hello and thank you for your videos! My hair is quite similar to how yours looked when you cut it short years ago. I've been integrating many of your gentle hair care techniques and they are helping - so grateful to find alternatives that feel right! I'm wondering about protective styles while my hair is still shorter - pretty curly, dry, a little longer than shoulder length, and very prone to getting bleached and damaged by the sun and eveything else. Would be so grateful for ideas of how to wear it while waiting for it to grow!
Dear Katherine, thank you. Slowly I am implementing your advice on natural hair products. Before I was confused as to why my hair would be so dry but you have explained that ..process.. of adjustment from conventional to natural. Maybe make a video on this issue? 1 first time, I stopped using natural hair shampoo was because of extreme dryness, and in addition to this, I color my hair. Now I use just natural shampoo, still adjusting and need conditioner, but it is much better. Now I will start to implement more clay washes and give myself some time. God bless you. xxx
Using clay this often really dries out your hair, which you can see with the tangles and the frizz. If your hair is more dry then you don’t need clay every week, clay is super clarifying. Once per month should be enough. In between clay washes try Sidre Powder (also known as Zysyphus) or a conditioning cleanser, like the one from Bounce Curl, there are no nasties in this, it cleanses effectively but is super mild. Also a deep conditioner would be advisable every now and then.
I have a question. Do you wash your children's hairs with clay too? And what about your husband, does he use clay wash? Asking, because I would love to switch to gentler ways to wash hair for my whole family 😊
I don't have experience with clay, but I use honey water for my child's hair. Also since clay is natural and mild, I think it's totally okay to try it on children too.
I have been doing it for 5 months now and I am almost ready to give up. I have been looking for some natural hair care routine all my life and when I came across your channel I was very happy. But it should be stated that it is for dry or normal hair. I have straight and oily hair and after following your advice with Rhassoul and and lately Bentonite clay, washing twice, vinegar rinses I have to admit my defeat. I like the feeling my hair is fuller than after regular shampoo but since the sebum is spread all over the length of it, it takes ages to dry. Several hours in my case. The difference is that after using the regular shampoo I have a day of "normalcy", while here as soon as my hair dries I need to use cornstarch. Without it I should stay at home or wear a head covering. Social interaction like dancing or hugging is absolutely impossible because my hair is oily and stinks. I have been using herbs/herbal rinses all my life but it cannot be done with vinegar. The plus is I can feel baby hair growing and I love it so I am really torn.
you are right this routine isn't a one size fits all! It sounds like you would benefit from using a clarifying shampoo. You can still use natural products after clarifying shampoo so you have the benefits of them. But a clogged scalp and grease build up isn't healthy for scalp/hair and clairfying shampoo would help :) a natural brand works.
I did this and my hair felt lovely and minimal hair fall, but I think I used too many drops of rosemary oil in the clay because my hair is now quite oily and took ages to dry. I used 2 tblsp clay to 2 cups water, 10 drops rosemary oil, followed by ac rinse. I will try no drops of oil tomorrow, followed by maybe 2 or 3 drops next time! I have slightly wavy, thin 24 inch hair.
It’s been a while, but I ordered your recommended hair dryer last year and I love it. I have fine, wavy (and aging, thus prone to breakage) hair. The hair dryer dries my hair quickly without ruining the curls and waves. Having control over the heat setting, as low as room temperature, which, I believe, you primarily use, means no damage. It’s excellent quality and worth every penny. So, thank you for that great recommendation!
Thank you so much for this video! I love your calm, soothing voice and also the nuggets shared 💖 I've always wanted to be more natural hair care wise and my hair responds well to the clay. I couldn't believe it, but my curls actually seemed more elongated?? Which was exactly what i wanted 😍 I've not read much about that happening for others, though Have ordered more clay and will check back with my results after a couple of months! See you later 💕💕💕
Thank you soo much for your washday routine and techniques. I'm glad I've clicked on your video. I am using Rhassoul clay wash one in six weeks and my hair loves it.
Washing with braids in the hair causes less tangles too and way less curl manipulation. You can also do a few twists and wash then gently take out twists.
Beautiful, I’m enjoying the process as an oily straight haired lady, some parts I’ve had to altar, I actually love the longer hair care process. Thank you so much!
I tried clay washing on my last two washes. One big difference is that my ends are no longer snapping off!! I can pull more and more fairy knots free and my hair is getting incredible shine and much better definition straight from the shower. My only problem is getting ALL the clay rinsed out
ACV really changed my hair. Its never been as strong and manageable as it is with that simple ingredient i may have to try this as well! I also made my own wet dry shampoo which is great for keeping hair dry and smelling good even after a good workout.
@@somethingspecial1415 I use it as a rinse before shampooing my hair. I mix 1 tbsp in a bottle with a scalp nozzle or pointed nozzle and get it on my scalp mostly and then down the hair shaft. Leave In For 10-15 minutes and then shampoo.
Your hair is so pretty!!! And it truly looks perfectly clean too. Whenever people say they don’t use shampoo I feel like their hair rarely ever looks properly clean but yours definitely does :) you should look into Ayurvedic hair care!! Ayurveda has tons of natural remedies for hair growth and grooming. Shikakai is literally a natural plant based surfactant! Makes a killer natural shampoo for when you need something more clarifying than the clay. And herbs like amla and fenugreek make fantastic masks for nourishing and moisturizing the hair!! I make a mask with amla, fenugreek and whole milk and my curls always look amazing right after a mask!! Sometimes I also add honey or beef tallow if I want a bit extra moisture :) I love natural hair care!! I’m gonna have to try the rassoul clay sometime 🫶🏼
Great video Katherine! I hope you and your lovely family are settling into your new home. Remember not to push yourself too hard with doing too many things at one time. Take care:)
Rhassoul clay and ACV used to work for me, but really dried out my hair after I changed my diet because my scalp stopped being as oily. I have tailbone length hair as well, but it’s wavy. I’ve been water only washing for about a month and a half. My hair has so much more volume now, it’s wavier, and not as frizzy, but my hair’s still adjusting because it feels a little gummy and looks kind of greasy. I’ve struggled a lot with my hair and I’ve tried everything. Hopefully the water only washing method will be the answer to my problems.
Hey! Thanks for this routine! Quick question- I've noticed that my scalp is waayyy too oily for the mostly liquid clay mixture to clean completely. Do you recommend thickening the mixture or should I just increase the number of clay washes?
So, like you never comb out your hair? Also, if you dig down about a foot in the dirt in our yard, from there on down, over our whole property, is a beautiful thick red clay. Will that work, mixed with water?
When I wash my hair with this clay, my hair feels thick l, but also feels dirty when it dries... no matter how much I rinse it afterward. I also apply the apple cider vinegar rinse before leaving the shower. Should I do something else to make it not feel dirty? PS: My hair is very thin and curly. THANK YOU!
I would add a small amount of the vinegar in with the clay, and a small amount of extra water. If that doesn’t work, maybe add in just a half capful of a natural shampoo.
Thank you very much for this wonderful video🌷It is better to use towels made from organic (because of the microplastic in it) cotton, but this is for very crunchy girls.
I always look forward to your new videos. I like your new electric scalp massager! I couldn't find the link for it. I didn't see it in your hair recommendations either. Plz link it (when you have time 😊)
Have you noticed your hair has gotten thicker? When your hair was shoulder length is looks so much like mine. But now your hair is extremely thick and long
For the past three weeks I have been working on hair health. Not washing as often (I just washed my hair for the first time in a week), weekly rosemary oil, sleeping in braids, more protective styles, adding scalp massage, and I feel like I am having increased hair fall. I don't know if it's just that I'm paying more attention or what, but I'm starting to worry 😓
Maybe you are not having more hair fall but rather, since you don't wash your hair as often as before, you only see how much hair falls out when you wash it. If you wash it less often, then more hair that falls out accumulates and shows up when you wash it. For example, if you lose 100 hairs a day like most people do, then if you wash your hair every day you will see 100 hairs fall out every day. But if you don't wash your hair for 7 days, then when you wash it you will see all the 700 strands that fell out during the week, but didn't get washed out over the week.
Putting oils on the scalp isn't so good for the roots of the hair. Oils clogs the pores on your head, from where the hair is growing and causes hair loss. Oil should be applied only on the length of the hair and if the hair is fine, then oil should be light and in a small amount, atherwise it will break the hair. Plus, vitamin deficiency can cause hair loss, too. Like, lack of iron, D, B12, lack protein in a diet.
I got all my ingredients and prepared the herbal oil mix for next week using your recipe. I've done the second wash today after applying the oils for 6 hours. Thank you for all the ideas! ❤ from EU 😊 Have you ever tried a red light therapy? Aparently it's good for hair thickening.
I tried letting my hair adjust and using this method for ~3+ months and my hair never adjusted. I had severe hair fall. So I went back to my Wet Pro brush and herbal shampoo with coconut conditioner. Problem is it is still greasy after a day or two. Maybe I needed to wait longer for it to adjust but I was becoming bald. 😞😭
Thanks for demonstrating. Fools like me literally need to be shown practical stuff. I bought a L the stuff n never used it. I live the massager but hardly used it. But now it will do this
Thank you for sharing your hair care techniques! I have straight, white Asian hair, but it helped my hair to grow longer than it has ever grown in my whole life. I just trimmed it, but it grew at its longest to my waist! Unfortunately, after going through 4 whole packages of the Rhassoul clay (same brand that you used), the fifth package of clay looked different and left a yellow tinge to my hair. I tried it a few times, always ending up with a yellow tinge. Do you have any suggestions/recommendations? Thank you! Rose
Hey! I was looking through some reviews for different brands of clay and some of those brands had negative reviews because of the issue you're talking about, but some of them didn't. I would start using a different brand and just read the other reviews to make sure that the product's quality hasn't changed:)
I tried this for the first time, but the clay solution seemed to flick everywhere! Made a bit of a mess of the shower. Does anyone have any tips on avoiding getting the clay wash everywhere/ cleaning afterwards?
For those that have tried this: my hair gets greasy and oily after a few days without washing. I have heard you can train your hair to be washed less. Has anyone had a similar situation and how long did it take you using this method for your hair to not get greasy after a week?🙏🏻 Would love to have long hair, but don't want to go in public looking like I don't wash.🙈😬
Hi, my hair is/was super oily (is part straigth part wavy 2a/2b), I have been using no-poo method for a month and I wash it two times in the week (wensday and saturday) and now I can arrived to wensday winthout problems. Now I want to try once a week. I use bicarbonato for wash and apple vinagre only. So a great solucion to dont look greasy are the protective hairstyles, she has a video about that. And the natutal brush but I dont have the mine yet 😢. So I guess that you can stay two months before you hair will be ok with a wash to week. 😊 (Sorry for my english 😅)
Make sure you clean whatever brush you use once in a while as well! I use boar bristle and if I don't clean it often enough it impacts how quickly my hair gets oily quite a bit!
I wanted my fine, straight hair to grow long & someone who had super long hair told me to stop washing it for as long as you possibly can. So I started with 1 week, then went to 2, then 3 & so on. The longest I have gone without any hair washing is 9 weeks, but by then my hair had grown a lot & I could wear it in a bun so you couldn’t notice any oily spots. Now I loosely braid my hair or put it in a loose bun & let it go unwashed for usually 4 weeks at a time. My hair grows like a cave woman! Hehehe, but true. Stop washing your hair & watch it grow!👍
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us, especially me. 🙏 Since having Covid twice and three surgeries over a year period, my hair is not doing well. So much fallout and what's left is extremely delicate. I'm going to try this. Needs TLC.

At what frequence do you use it, please? (Once a week, once every other week or else?) Do you still use shampoo or you only use the clay mix?

Hello!
Wondering if you do oil treatments and able to wash all the oils out with just clay and ACV. I’m having an issue with my hair being greasy after after the wash , from the oil treatment the night prior. Maybe add more clay ? Thanks !
African Pride Hair oil that you can buy at Walgreens grows hair quickly. Just apply it right after you wash it and then brush it. During covid my hair was only 3 inches long because I kept it short. Now it's almost to my belly button and I don't have to mix any crazy concoctions
Love them❤.
My absolute favorite is 🎉peach silk blouse ,taupe silk skirt, long coat:
❤Other favorites:

I ve said this before but.... You are one of the most beautiful women I ve ever saw . And the long hair suits you . Your curly long hair is amazing and also the color is beautiful .
EVERYONE OF US ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL! Beauty is also underneath too.
@@kathyhubel6794 and that is also, very true !!! I love observing people around me and be surprised that their beauty in the most surprising forms, especially when you observe them act from their character and personality. Some people have such a beauty, that it is not the standard one, but one far more dangerous that burns from within. Dangerous because it makes you doubt all you ever knew about what society imposed taught you about " beauty"
@@kathyhubel6794 thank you so much sweetie for the comment
@@kathyhubel6794 that is not true
I use an herbal like clay ,,add few drops of dr. Bronners, almond Castille and water...wash 2.5 weeks..no conditioner ..my hair like yours, curly, long and prone to tangle...after almost dry I apply a beautiful combo oil I buy from a local distributor...it's beautiful oil...I always braid my hair after washing and detangle later or next day. At night always braid at nite for bed, curly hair must be protected and it's dry, but so healthy now from your videos...add oils as needed through the weeks with bore brushing..my hair is mid back length or longer being older it's still OK to have long pretty hair, as I keep it off my face with barrettes and or soft hair ties in a ponytail and or braid it. TY Katherine for this demonstration of hair washing...the chlorine in our water has always been a problem for me...I can't go in pools either....very dry skin and hair but washing up to 3 weeks helps me stay away from chlorine...and lots of care and oils...maybe you can address that issue...my psoriasis is pretty much gone..on my scalp..dermatologist says keep doing what you're doing...so happy 😊...it's OK for older women to have long hair if they like to and use beautiful oils to keep it healthy...
I have thin hair that is almost shoulder length. Im using rice water shampoo and conditioner. I use honey instead of soap twice a week from head to toe. Have you tried honey? Its great as a facial. Just use warm water then wash with honey. Let set up to 5 minutes. Then wash with warm water. You will smell like honey. I have used coconut oil as a mask and a mix with honey. I suggest you try adding a egg that is beaten with oil and honey. Using a bbq brush brush this on your scalp and from roots to ends. Then let stay 24 hours at least. You can do this several times. Then wash out. Your hair will be hard but it will be very soft afterwards.
I may try that egg honey and oil...in the past I tried something similar but didn't work that well but this recipe using oil makes the difference as opposed to mayonnaise...TY.
Love this routine and your calming video and voice. I’ve been using this routine for years and once in awhile I will try a “natural” shampoo and I go right back to the clays. Your hair is gorgeous! 💖🌺
I tried this routine for the 1st time and OMG, my hair looks amazing!!! I have curly hair (3b, 3c) and my curls are really defined and shiny for cheap (my normal routine costs 176€ vs 37€ here without counting the cost of tools). Let's see how it goes in the long term, I hope to see growth.
I did pre-poo with coconut oil, detangled with my hands, did 4 braids (even though my hair is way shorter), washed with rhassoul (I let it sit for 3 minutes), rinced with ACV that I let in my hair (I used to rince with ACV a few years ago so my hair is used to it), then I styled it with my denman brush and flaxseed gel (I put some hibiscus in it for the color), let my hair dry first with my diffuseur in cold air then naturally and I finished with broccoli oil (known for being light on the hair and is anti frizz).
I don't know how long it will lasts, I hope it will stay that way for at least 3 days then I will do protective hairstyle. I hope I will remember this comment to do an update for 1st month 3rd month, 6th month and 1st year.
How is it going now?
Wow…..You live in the most Beautiful greenest nature outdoor atmosphere place I have ever seen in my Life! Paradise🤩 you are so Blessed!
You have gorgeous hair!!! Thank you for sharing your routine!!! I used to use rhassoul clay but stopped because it’s so messy. The benefits are definitely worth the clean up. ❤❤❤
These videos are so relaxing
You and your hair are beautiful!❤
this is pure gold right here thank you for sharing this for free with the world
My granddaughter and I do a clay face mask now and then and it's really fun and she loves it as well 😊
GORGEOUS, your hair is perfect 🥰 If I could choose a curl pattern. I would choose yours. I learned to love my 3c/4a hair. My hair shrinks a lot, but it's healthy.
Hello and thank you for your videos! My hair is quite similar to how yours looked when you cut it short years ago. I've been integrating many of your gentle hair care techniques and they are helping - so grateful to find alternatives that feel right! I'm wondering about protective styles while my hair is still shorter - pretty curly, dry, a little longer than shoulder length, and very prone to getting bleached and damaged by the sun and eveything else. Would be so grateful for ideas of how to wear it while waiting for it to grow!
Dear Katherine, thank you. Slowly I am implementing your advice on natural hair products. Before I was confused as to why my hair would be so dry but you have explained that ..process.. of adjustment from conventional to natural. Maybe make a video on this issue? 1 first time, I stopped using natural hair shampoo was because of extreme dryness, and in addition to this, I color my hair. Now I use just natural shampoo, still adjusting and need conditioner, but it is much better. Now I will start to implement more clay washes and give myself some time. God bless you. xxx
You shouldn't use metal bowls/spoons with clay. It will neutralize the clay, making it less effective, and draw metal particles into itself
In here defense ALL of the shots they have for immunization for children put metal on their brains...
Just had that conversation with a friend an hour ago.
@@User1631a like anything else, like ceramic, plastic, wood or glass. I use a glass or a ceramic bowl and stir it with a wooden spoon
@@User1631a glass or plastic
@@irene6119 Not sure if the clay is excavated using a plastic/ceramic/glass/wood forklift...
Using clay this often really dries out your hair, which you can see with the tangles and the frizz. If your hair is more dry then you don’t need clay every week, clay is super clarifying. Once per month should be enough. In between clay washes try Sidre Powder (also known as Zysyphus) or a conditioning cleanser, like the one from Bounce Curl, there are no nasties in this, it cleanses effectively but is super mild. Also a deep conditioner would be advisable every now and then.
Sidr also dries your hair how would you suggest using it in this case?
Looks like you've always had thick hair. That helps too!!
I have a question. Do you wash your children's hairs with clay too? And what about your husband, does he use clay wash? Asking, because I would love to switch to gentler ways to wash hair for my whole family 😊
I don't have experience with clay, but I use honey water for my child's hair. Also since clay is natural and mild, I think it's totally okay to try it on children too.
I have type 4a and 3c curls and coils and this is the method I use to cleanse my hair as well. Simplistic and natural. ❤
I have been doing it for 5 months now and I am almost ready to give up. I have been looking for some natural hair care routine all my life and when I came across your channel I was very happy. But it should be stated that it is for dry or normal hair. I have straight and oily hair and after following your advice with Rhassoul and and lately Bentonite clay, washing twice, vinegar rinses I have to admit my defeat. I like the feeling my hair is fuller than after regular shampoo but since the sebum is spread all over the length of it, it takes ages to dry. Several hours in my case. The difference is that after using the regular shampoo I have a day of "normalcy", while here as soon as my hair dries I need to use cornstarch. Without it I should stay at home or wear a head covering. Social interaction like dancing or hugging is absolutely impossible because my hair is oily and stinks. I have been using herbs/herbal rinses all my life but it cannot be done with vinegar. The plus is I can feel baby hair growing and I love it so I am really torn.
you are right this routine isn't a one size fits all! It sounds like you would benefit from using a clarifying shampoo. You can still use natural products after clarifying shampoo so you have the benefits of them. But a clogged scalp and grease build up isn't healthy for scalp/hair and clairfying shampoo would help :) a natural brand works.
You need to shorten your hair until manageable. No way can you do this with long hair. Wash with just water daily if you have too.
@@cf393 are you telling them to cut their hair? Hell no.
@@touchmossis there a non-toxic clarifying shampoo you recommend?
@@flowersafeheart I love "The Grandpa Soap co." Clairfy shampoo. it's gentle but works well! I've seen it at some grocery stores.
I did this and my hair felt lovely and minimal hair fall, but I think I used too many drops of rosemary oil in the clay because my hair is now quite oily and took ages to dry. I used 2 tblsp clay to 2 cups water, 10 drops rosemary oil, followed by ac rinse. I will try no drops of oil tomorrow, followed by maybe 2 or 3 drops next time! I have slightly wavy, thin 24 inch hair.
It’s been a while, but I ordered your recommended hair dryer last year and I love it. I have fine, wavy (and aging, thus prone to breakage) hair. The hair dryer dries my hair quickly without ruining the curls and waves. Having control over the heat setting, as low as room temperature, which, I believe, you primarily use, means no damage. It’s excellent quality and worth every penny. So, thank you for that great recommendation!
Ooh which hairdryer is this, could you please share?
Thank you so much for this video! I love your calm, soothing voice and also the nuggets shared 💖
I've always wanted to be more natural hair care wise and my hair responds well to the clay. I couldn't believe it, but my curls actually seemed more elongated?? Which was exactly what i wanted 😍 I've not read much about that happening for others, though
Have ordered more clay and will check back with my results after a couple of months! See you later 💕💕💕
Thank you soo much for your washday routine and techniques. I'm glad I've clicked on your video. I am using Rhassoul clay wash one in six weeks and my hair loves it.
Washing with braids in the hair causes less tangles too and way less curl manipulation. You can also do a few twists and wash then gently take out twists.
Thank you for this! You are so beautiful and your hair is amazing. I struggle with growing my curls past my shoulders so I'll have to give this a try~
I cut my waist length hair and OMG I regret it. Now I am wanting to grow it back out ASAP. Thanks for this video!
Beautiful, I’m enjoying the process as an oily straight haired lady, some parts I’ve had to altar, I actually love the longer hair care process. Thank you so much!
Absolutely beautiful ❤ you are one of my hair goals!
I agree, even when we are in the mood to use hair dye for at home application, we should always use glass bowls. Glass is always better and friendly.
I now have a red & brassy tint to my hairs from Rhassoul clay.
What is your hair color?
Thank you for sharing Katherine!
I really appreciate how detailed your videos are. Really helps a newbie like me. I'm already seeing results after two weeks. Thank you! 😊
Hi Katherine happy Friday night and I hope you having amazing day today and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you
I’m getting the last elements I need this month, so I will be starting your routine soon. Yay!
Thank you for your videos. I do have an important question. My hair is naturally platinum. Will the clay turn it brown ??????
In that postpartum hair care with you ❤ our babies were so close!
I tried clay washing on my last two washes. One big difference is that my ends are no longer snapping off!! I can pull more and more fairy knots free and my hair is getting incredible shine and much better definition straight from the shower. My only problem is getting ALL the clay rinsed out
ACV really changed my hair. Its never been as strong and manageable as it is with that simple ingredient i may have to try this as well! I also made my own wet dry shampoo which is great for keeping hair dry and smelling good even after a good workout.
Hi,how do you use acv on your hair?
@@somethingspecial1415 I use it as a rinse before shampooing my hair. I mix 1 tbsp in a bottle with a scalp nozzle or pointed nozzle and get it on my scalp mostly and then down the hair shaft. Leave In For 10-15 minutes and then shampoo.
@@YeaNo. thanks!
@@somethingspecial1415 np I forgot to say fill the rest of the bottle with water to dilute it! That's very important 😂 acv is extremely acidic.
@@YeaNo. thxz,have you experienced any growth ?
Your hair is so pretty!!! And it truly looks perfectly clean too. Whenever people say they don’t use shampoo I feel like their hair rarely ever looks properly clean but yours definitely does :) you should look into Ayurvedic hair care!! Ayurveda has tons of natural remedies for hair growth and grooming. Shikakai is literally a natural plant based surfactant! Makes a killer natural shampoo for when you need something more clarifying than the clay. And herbs like amla and fenugreek make fantastic masks for nourishing and moisturizing the hair!! I make a mask with amla, fenugreek and whole milk and my curls always look amazing right after a mask!! Sometimes I also add honey or beef tallow if I want a bit extra moisture :) I love natural hair care!! I’m gonna have to try the rassoul clay sometime 🫶🏼
You said you can use a wash out conditioner after clay wash? But before acv rinse, correct?
You are a brilliant natural hair care genius! Thank you for your advice!
Great video Katherine! I hope you and your lovely family are settling into your new home. Remember not to push yourself too hard with doing too many things at one time. Take care:)
Rhassoul clay and ACV used to work for me, but really dried out my hair after I changed my diet because my scalp stopped being as oily. I have tailbone length hair as well, but it’s wavy. I’ve been water only washing for about a month and a half. My hair has so much more volume now, it’s wavier, and not as frizzy, but my hair’s still adjusting because it feels a little gummy and looks kind of greasy. I’ve struggled a lot with my hair and I’ve tried everything. Hopefully the water only washing method will be the answer to my problems.
I was wondering if this stains your bathtub at all. Also does this help with severely dry scalp. I have an extremely dry, itchy and flaky scalp
Hey! Thanks for this routine!
Quick question- I've noticed that my scalp is waayyy too oily for the mostly liquid clay mixture to clean completely. Do you recommend thickening the mixture or should I just increase the number of clay washes?
Following! I’m wondering the same thing
So, like you never comb out your hair?
Also, if you dig down about a foot in the dirt in our yard, from there on down, over our whole property, is a beautiful thick red clay. Will that work, mixed with water?
Do you think it’s ok to use red Rhassoul Clay instead of the greenish brown Rhassoul Clay?
Love your videos! Can I ask one about your nighttime skincare routine?
Your eyebrows are so mesmerizing for some reason!
When I wash my hair with this clay, my hair feels thick l, but also feels dirty when it dries... no matter how much I rinse it afterward. I also apply the apple cider vinegar rinse before leaving the shower. Should I do something else to make it not feel dirty?
PS: My hair is very thin and curly.
THANK YOU!
I would add a small amount of the vinegar in with the clay, and a small amount of extra water. If that doesn’t work, maybe add in just a half capful of a natural shampoo.
@@Leah_F. thank you!!
Upload more hair growth videos 😊
This clay moisturize my hair and make it feel softer but I still need to add shampoo to clean all the oil.
My sister thank you for sharing, ❤
you have such nice eyebrows! also beautiful hair
Thank you very much for this wonderful video🌷It is better to use towels made from organic (because of the microplastic in it) cotton, but this is for very crunchy girls.
I love your amazing cloths and how gutsy you r! I would never have the courage to shower on you tub. Your like a fairy tail princess!
So, did you mix the clay with regular water, bottled water, tonic water? And what kind of essential oils did you use?
I think she uses half water and aloe juice. The clay bottle mix for her scalp she added peppermint.
@@hannahr.n.5791where do u get authentic aloe juice??
I always look forward to your new videos.
I like your new electric scalp massager!
I couldn't find the link for it. I didn't see it in your hair recommendations either.
Plz link it (when you have time 😊)
Wow, you are so pretty! Thanks for sharing.
Hi Katherine ,thank you for your great tips ,lots of love from the South of France💚
Have you noticed your hair has gotten thicker? When your hair was shoulder length is looks so much like mine. But now your hair is extremely thick and long
That's one awesome huge garden!
For the past three weeks I have been working on hair health. Not washing as often (I just washed my hair for the first time in a week), weekly rosemary oil, sleeping in braids, more protective styles, adding scalp massage, and I feel like I am having increased hair fall. I don't know if it's just that I'm paying more attention or what, but I'm starting to worry 😓
Maybe you are not having more hair fall but rather, since you don't wash your hair as often as before, you only see how much hair falls out when you wash it. If you wash it less often, then more hair that falls out accumulates and shows up when you wash it. For example, if you lose 100 hairs a day like most people do, then if you wash your hair every day you will see 100 hairs fall out every day. But if you don't wash your hair for 7 days, then when you wash it you will see all the 700 strands that fell out during the week, but didn't get washed out over the week.
@@saraha5522 for sure possible, but even before I was going 3 days or so. Fingers crossed 🤞
@@saraha5522right, exactly!
Putting oils on the scalp isn't so good for the roots of the hair. Oils clogs the pores on your head, from where the hair is growing and causes hair loss. Oil should be applied only on the length of the hair and if the hair is fine, then oil should be light and in a small amount, atherwise it will break the hair.
Plus, vitamin deficiency can cause hair loss, too. Like, lack of iron, D, B12, lack protein in a diet.
I got all my ingredients and prepared the herbal oil mix for next week using your recipe. I've done the second wash today after applying the oils for 6 hours. Thank you for all the ideas! ❤ from EU 😊
Have you ever tried a red light therapy? Aparently it's good for hair thickening.
I love these new hair videos!! Keep it up! 💕💕
I tried letting my hair adjust and using this method for ~3+ months and my hair never adjusted. I had severe hair fall. So I went back to my Wet Pro brush and herbal shampoo with coconut conditioner. Problem is it is still greasy after a day or two. Maybe I needed to wait longer for it to adjust but I was becoming bald. 😞😭
I'd love to try this routine! Thank you for sharing. Does the clay cause problems in the shower plumbing?
Thank you for this video and the links to your previous more detailed videos.
Thank you for the video but can you please let us know what kind of essential oil are you using????
Thank you for all these wonderful videos, and lessons you share!❤
Thank you so much for this video! You answered every question I had, at least for now :)
God bless you :)
Thanks for demonstrating. Fools like me literally need to be shown practical stuff. I bought a

Hey, if anyone is looking for an even lighter oil for oily hair I've recently found and fallen in love with apricot oil. 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you kindly! I appreciate this suggestion 👍 Would you say apricot oil even lighter than almond oil?
@moonmaidenn Apricot kernel oil has lower viscosity as compared to the almond oil, so yes, it will be lighter than the almond oil❤
I use for a long time vegan shampoo & conditioner with tea tree oil
Thank you for sharing your hair care techniques! I have straight, white Asian hair, but it helped my hair to grow longer than it has ever grown in my whole life. I just trimmed it, but it grew at its longest to my waist! Unfortunately, after going through 4 whole packages of the Rhassoul clay (same brand that you used), the fifth package of clay looked different and left a yellow tinge to my hair. I tried it a few times, always ending up with a yellow tinge. Do you have any suggestions/recommendations?
Thank you!

Hey! I was looking through some reviews for different brands of clay and some of those brands had negative reviews because of the issue you're talking about, but some of them didn't. I would start using a different brand and just read the other reviews to make sure that the product's quality hasn't changed:)
I tried this for the first time, but the clay solution seemed to flick everywhere! Made a bit of a mess of the shower. Does anyone have any tips on avoiding getting the clay wash everywhere/ cleaning afterwards?
I use a hair dye Applicator Brush (bottle) that I bought on Amazon. I apply the shampoo on dry hair and message. That seems to help me.
Thank you for sharing! I LOVE the apron you have on at the end of the video. Might you share where you got it?
I have begun this. Thanks a ton .
For those that have tried this: my hair gets greasy and oily after a few days without washing. I have heard you can train your hair to be washed less. Has anyone had a similar situation and how long did it take you using this method for your hair to not get greasy after a week?🙏🏻 Would love to have long hair, but don't want to go in public looking like I don't wash.🙈😬
Hi, my hair is/was super oily (is part straigth part wavy 2a/2b), I have been using no-poo method for a month and I wash it two times in the week (wensday and saturday) and now I can arrived to wensday winthout problems.
Now I want to try once a week.
I use bicarbonato for wash and apple vinagre only.
So a great solucion to dont look greasy are the protective hairstyles, she has a video about that. And the natutal brush but I dont have the mine yet 😢.
So I guess that you can stay two months before you hair will be ok with a wash to week. 😊
(Sorry for my english 😅)
@@VerumSpina Thank you! That is helpful❤
Make sure you clean whatever brush you use once in a while as well! I use boar bristle and if I don't clean it often enough it impacts how quickly my hair gets oily quite a bit!
I wanted my fine, straight hair to grow long & someone who had super long hair told me to stop washing it for as long as you possibly can. So I started with 1 week, then went to 2, then 3 & so on. The longest I have gone without any hair washing is 9 weeks, but by then my hair had grown a lot & I could wear it in a bun so you couldn’t notice any oily spots. Now I loosely braid my hair or put it in a loose bun & let it go unwashed for usually 4 weeks at a time. My hair grows like a cave woman! Hehehe, but true. Stop washing your hair & watch it grow!👍
