A game changer for me is in handling my hair. When I remember to treat my hair like a delicate flower and not like a weed changed the game for me. 😊
Yup ppl with a curl hair were raised to be somewhat abusive towards it. Now I want my hair to grow slower lol. It’s too healthy now bc I baby it and have to cut it quite a bit. Before, I’ll kill u if you came by me with scissors lol.
My game changer is putting a plastic cap on after I apply my leave in conditioner for 15 minutes. This process leaves my hair soft and moisturized.
The game changer for me is knowing my moisture cycle of every three days making sure I moisturize on that schedule every time, drinking lots is water, and getting my rest each night, and eating healthier. Tyfs these awesome tips.
I have been struggling with dryness FOR THE LONGEST TIME but I recently switched from using castor oil to hair grease for sealing in moisture and my hair is ✨THRIVING✨❤️❤️ My hair now retains moisture for more than 3 days and the breakage that I used to experience has decreases tremendously ❤️🔥
Yayy! 😆
Ikr 😌👌🏾
The game changer for me is locking in moisture and "freezing" my ends with flaxseed gel. This keeps my hair moisturized for days but more importantly it protects my ends from extreme dryness, frizz and breakage.
I ddddrench my ends with flaxseed gel then seal them up with my whipped butter. I then make sure I put them up and away from brushing on my clothes. Has helped me retain my length too.
Oh woooww😳😳I may have to try that
Sound really good ... do you apply gel n butter on while hair are still damp.... n do you mean butter , like real edible butter
A game changer for my hp hair was protein treatments. Sometimes you need to improve the hair itself rather than just coating it if you want better moisture retention.
My game changer to lock in moisture is LCO then plaiting it up and leaving until wash day (once/wk). As long as i don't pull out the plaits, it stays moist. This works for me at this time since I am still working from home.
Thank you for sharing Allison! ☺️
True, that works for me as well for three weeks or so when either braiding it or twisting it and just leaving it alone.
This is what I've been doing but with mini twists. Once a week after I wash, I unravel each twist, do my LCO routine, detangle, then twist it back up. Doing this method has kept my perpetually dry and high porosity type 4b hair moisturized and my twists always look juicy and full now!
Girl yesss me too since working from home my hair stays in plaits lol
Wont that be sad, being imprisoned by single braids and not being able to explore and celebrate the diversity of black hair😕🤷♀️
Definitely pre-pooing has been such a game changer
Yes!! Same for me as well.
Can you tell me what this is prepooing?
@@candaceboyd4235 hi, pre-pooing is applying oil like coconut oil or any other penetrating oil that you have on your hair for 30 to an 1 hour before you shampoo your hair. I personally apply coconut oil, put on my heat cap and let my hair soak up all that coconut oil for 30min then rinse out the oil and shampoo follow up with my deep conditioner.
Hope this helps
@@candaceboyd4235 pre-poo means pre shampoo
@@mbalienhlendaba So Pre-pooing is a hot oil treatment before wash.
I would love a tutorial on how to create daily fall to winter ❄️ hydration routine please and thank you
Yes! The cold weather has my hair so mad 🥶
I would like to testify that sectioning my hair is definitely a healthy part of my hair care routine. I also sleep in a satin bonnet and trim my spilt ends and single strand knots as I notice them. I try not to tear my hair ever. I stop and try to figure out how it is tangled before proceeding with the detangling process.
This is the 2nd time this week that I have heard about "moisture overload". Growing up, my hair would soak up moisturizer so quickly so I always thought that the overly soft, "limp" texture after moisturizing was good to help retain the moisture within a protective style. I know very little about true haircare and am learning sooo much.
Hi there, I must share this with you because, we are on the same page. Briogeo don’t despair mask!!!!!! Changed my life!!!!! I even had PROTEIN OVERLOAD, gurl this mask BALANCED my protein/moisture perfectly, I used go back and forth with moisture and protein, not anymore, I use it once a week when I cleanse and no more playing the balancing game. Yes it is crazy expensive and crazy worth it for any texture or porosity. Let me know if you have questions and please read the reviews..Blessings!!!!
Defintely seen improvements in moisture and overall hair health since I introduced ayurveda into my regimen!
Same!
Me too!
💯
what do you use?
@@angelini.NC. The herbs I primarily use as of late are hibiscus, fenugreek, neem, moringa, and sometimes henna
Game changer for me to combat dryness was rebelling against natural hair influencers saying not to leave deep conditioner in my hair, I live in the desert and fall/winter seasons are COLD I left design essentials rosemary and mint conditioner in my hair and it hasn’t been dry ever since! 🤙🏽
Game changer for me was when I started seeing my ends daily and soak them nightly with my organic amla oil and every morning my end mimick a fresh cut even though it's been months since I've trimmed😊😉
I noticed that when i prepoo my low porosity hair, my hair can stay moisturize for over 3 weeks... no products added... And i also think because my leave in conditioner is great... Great videos friend
Thank you! ☺️
What leave in do you use?
what leave-in do you use?
What leave in do you use?
What do you prepoo with, just an oil or something else? Thanks in advance if you respond
Grease has been a game changer for me ever since I started using it again after realizing my mom ALWAYS used it on my hair and I see why lol
The best example of moisturizing your skin when you get out of shower/bath slather yourself with cream and then smooth on some oil atop that. No ash for a day. Do the same damn thing with your hair.
Great video as always.
P.S. My game changer was to prepoo with infused onion/garlic oil with massage then a bit of steam with a plastic cap. Literally after three months my fine hair was not only thicker at the roots but longer. I also realize different quadrants of your hair grows at differing speeds.
Thank youuu! ☺️
@@CurlyChemistry also thank you for addressing the high and low porosity needs of your audience.
Diff quadrants growing at different speeds is so true. My back grows the fastest then my middle and my front grows slowly. I look like I have layers shaped in my hair but it just grows that way 😪
Where can I obtain onion oil please?
@@redeem7677 you can make it. Lots of videos on UA-cam on how to make it
My game changer is being intentional and caring for my hair like a baby. It grows like crazy now that I am gentle and thoughtful. I just have to be disciplined on the regular maintenance schedule. Busy life with a 15 year old and a 1 year old that wants to sprint for the Olympics. Can you provide recommendations on clean toddler natural hair care and products?
My game changer has been the Luster’s Scurl Curl Activator spray. I apply it as the liquid before applying leave in. Then I seal with the Carol’s Daughter Mimosa Hair Honey pomade, which is also another staple. I also use the spray on my braids and to refresh my hair between wash days. As for creamy leave ins, I’m not brand loyal but I prefer ones with silicones and protein.
My medium to high porosity fine hair also loves protein treatments. I use the Aphogee reconstructor every other week and the Aphogee strengthening kit every 2-3 months or when I do braids. It leaves my hair feeling strong yet soft and elastic. And I feel like I retain more moisture.
Keeping a routine and understanding my hair needs to be moisturised every couple of days
thanks for sharing, I am hipo been natural for 2years and struggled to keep moisture for more than a day or 2. now I am so happy that I started using grease (blue magic) I apply my diy flax leave-in and seal it with grease OMG WHAT A MAGIC POTION.
My high porosity hair is in love with carol’s daughter enhancing moisture butter & I seal with blue magic grease
Nice!
My hair and I are LOVING the Blue Magic hair grease. Makes all the difference!!! Better curls, definition, and seals in the moisture like crazy!!! Thank you for confirming what was in my spirit!
I want to get back to using grease. What is your regimen and how do you use the grease? Like do you spray your hair with water first then grease ect
@@Shrimp459 I use the LCO method. I make my own leave in, use Shea Moisture curl smoothie as my moisturizer, then seal with Blue Magic Coconut Oil (it's the white and blue jar). For reference, I have type 4b, high porosity, coarse, and super dense hair.
@@CinemaDoll137 oh wow ok. I have the Blue Magic coconut and the Blue magic Indian hemp. I'm high porosity too but don't know hair type but I do have fine strands. Is the leave in really necessary if your using a moisturizing curl cream? I always feel like one or the other will do when it comes to those 2 product's
@@Shrimp459 for me, it is. I can't just apply cream to dry hair. I have to at least wet it with water.
@@CinemaDoll137 oh yes you absolutely have to wet the hair. I'm not talking about wetting it I'm talking about using leave in AND a moisturizing cream together. I usually use one or the other
Pre-pooing and deep conditioning has been a game changer for me. But since it's getting cooler, I have to moisturize mid week now.
Great advice!
@@CurlyChemistry Using ayurvedic herbs for masks and/or conditiners has been more of a game changer too.
@BlkScuba Queen, which deep conditioner do you use? Have you tried Soultanicals Ayurvedic deep cobditioner masque?
@@ErinGrime Yes I've tried it but I wasn't impressed. Store boughts, Miche did well, I have Mane Krush but I have not used it yet but I love Henna Sooqs' ayurvedic conditioners. I love to create my own too. My hair thanks me when I do ayurvedic DIYs.
What products are prepoo?
Aloe vera changed my hair from thinning and a dry, lifeless appearance to thicker, healthier, bouncy and moisturized. I grow my own. Also periodic use of straight onion juice. By the way I have salt and pepper natural hair worn in loose twists mostly.
LOC method all the way. Love and greetings from Pretoria, South Africa 🇿🇦 ❤
Deep conditioning Especially when I first started this natural hair journey.i definitely notice the difference when I didn't at all..as well as products that detangles well
Great tip!
Sectioning 👀👀👀🤣🤣 I tried to avoid it because it’s exhausting. But my hair behaves soooo much better
I know the feeling! It can be time consuming, but so worth it!
Using Bentonite Clay once a year before I was wash my hair has been a game changer for me aswell. My hair has a nice shine to it, and I found it much easier to run the comb through it, without having to fight with my hair lol.
Going back to grease has been a game changer for me 🙏🏼 I have thick high density LP hair and moisturizing wasn’t too much of a problem for me but retaining that moisture was hard until I found a good sealant (thanks to the PMP method video).
Thank you so much for helping me learn my natural hair more, I appreciate you 🌹❤️
You’re so welcome!! 🥰
Grease has been an absolute life saver to me I will never give it up again
Hi love, what’s the PMP method?
My game changer in keeping my hair moist is using a clarifying shampoo for my first wash, then using design essentials honey creme shampoo and conditioner and sealing with a hair grease ( carol’s daughter mimosa honey).
Hey Tonya. Can you do a video on how to keep straight hair moisturized between washes (if that's even possible since water is moisture) cause the winter months are coming and some of us will be straightening our hair??
I have recently started using grease properly. For years I was applying it incorrectly but now, thanks to people like yourself, I find my tresses looking lushious and moisturised healthy and long, like yours, only shorter. Thanks for all the great advice.
You’re so welcome! Hair grease is a game changer. ☺️
How do you use grease now?
@@taneishajohnson3790 I apply it when doing my wash and goes. A small fingernail amount on a quarter section of wet hair and brush it through. This keeps my hair moisturised for days with no need to reapply water or grease. Check out Lauren Leigh 11 on youtube. She has loads of ideas and solutions on what to do using pommade/grease
@@yvonnestarr8933 Thank you. I will try doing that and check that channel too. Is there one grease brand you recommend over another?
@@taneishajohnson3790 I spritz aloe Vera mixed with a little water and conditioner and apply Dax hair grease. It stayed moisturised for days. My twists are plump and HP fine hair looks healthy.
I am so glad i subscribed to your channel because you not only give tips but use science to explain why we should do certain things and that is just everything to me. I can't believe this is free information. Thank you.
Tanya! could you please do a video on different hair breakage (crown, nape, edges, etc.)?
Yesss! That’s a great topic. 😆
And how to deal with different porosities/ textures on one head.
Steaming under a hooded steamer and adding Ayurveda into my regimen has been the game changer for me.
I love using hair grease as sealant twist looks fantastic
Just on time with a new video when I'm about to wash my hair
Thank you 😭❤️❤️
Yayyyy! Enjoy!
Great to know!!! I am old fashion! Water and hair grease works best for me!!
Can you please do a video about hair thickness and thinness? You are one of the UA-camrs I trust love your content about natural hair thanks 🙏
Luv your channel!!! The game changer for me as a high porosity curly has been to incorporate products with ceramides and silicones back in. My hair is thriving.
Please what products do you use?
@@mfonix Botanika Beauty mender for protein, crece pelo deep conditioner L’oreal Elvive repair & protect deep conditioner has ceramides.
@@dakotakee1 thank you, heard about these products from Afope Atoyebi channel. Will incorporate in the future. I recently started Curly Chemistry recommendations for high porosity hair. Will see what results I get in the long term.
@@mfonix She is exactly who I hot the info from !
I used to love ahpogee to get my hair together. That was until I discovered curlsmith’s bonding treatment. It is so good, less messy, and a breeze to apply. You should try it out sis. Love the analogy you gave about moisturizing your plants with oil💜🥰🦋🙏🏿
Sounds good ! Where do I find out about curl smith’s bonding?
My coarse low porosity hair strands love olive oil, honey🍯and hair grease. 😌👌🏾
I’ve started using your PMP method and alternating with scalp massages with oil. I think it is working well for me so far
My game changer is definitely ayurveda. The strengthening treatments help my high porosity hair retain moisture for longer. Also using teas in place of water also helps 👌🏾
My game changer has been sealing with Blue Magic. My mom used Ultra Sheen when I was growing up. It was good but Blue Magic works much better on my hair.
My hair loves steam. I incorporate steam in my pre poo or whenever I need to detangle. My hair also loves Etae’s Carmel treatment. Leaves my hair very moisturized.
Tonya the divine indeed!!! 😍 So many game changers for retaining moisture helped me! 1) No bleach; 2) LBG: Leave-in + Botanical + Gel; 3) prepoo & DIY; 4) not letting my med-to-hi po hair stay wet for too long; 5) not pushing my washdays past the dryness limit; 6) discovering that while it's ok for me in moderation, I can't load up on too much aloe, coconut, & flax; 7) using moisturizing shampoos; 8) diffusing on cool with some nice veeedeos to pass the looong time it takes!!! 😂 Thanks, beauty, & have a lovely weekend!!! xo 😘
Thank youuu for sharing! 🥰
Glycerin has been a game changer for my hair.
Glycerin is great!
Your PMP method changed the game for me.
Yayy! So glad to hear it! 😆
Also to point out, oils give nutrients to hair as well as coats. Hydration should come internally, drinking liquids, raw plant/fruit diet. I’ve learned to use oils in place of lotion for skin. I use tea or water when mixing in. Like hair products, lotion dries up worse than it began and makes skin dependent. Lotion and hair products just try to bind moisture with oils and butters and if I can do that without the added possible damaging chemicals... I’ve been learning that these market products can make hair fragile with certain ingredients so the product can penetrate and can cause damage to the hair. The healthier hair comes from folk who use less product and there’a more to it than them not needing it. What’s been helpful in moisture was spraying lavender and chamomile brewed water in my hair. I’m growing my own herbs and brew them for teas and skincare. I found that these acted like a softening refresher or a light leave in. The hydration lasted long as well. Then I found many women spraying lavender in their hair and enjoying the benefits. For oils my go to, is the obvious jojoba which mimics skin oil closer than other oils and absorbs very well. It’s actually more of a wax than an oil structurally. I use this predominantly with small portions of other oils like avocado, coconut and almond. If you are going to put an oil in your hair, it should be small amount. I also notice we drown our hair in oil, in the way use market moisturizers and that’s also a mistake. If you wouldn’t do it for your skin, you probably shouldn’t do that for your hair, depending on your skins dryness level. The good ole water and grease was on to something. Water and oil can have great results with tweaking and not over-saturating. I also learned that dryness isn’t normal either. Check the products you are using, look into the ingredients and figure out what works but your hair. My dry scalp with 3b-3c hair, at medium porosity does not prefer the extra stuff. I find my teas more helpful. Also my sons locs are growing like crazy , out of nowhere since I started making my own herbal sprays. I’ve seen folk using rosemary brew as a leave in and it’s something I’m going to start trying to grow.
I've been adding s. curl gel with lot's of glycerin in it and sealing with Ors hair lotion. It's keeping my strands hydrated near a week with less breakage on wash day.
My game changer was technique. I now comb/brush FROM THE ROOT to tip after thoroughly detangling. As I apply product, I brush it through to make sure every strand is coated. I also have learned to put my product all the way from root to tip... like for real. And I wasn't using enough product. When I tell you game changer? I mean my hair grew 3/4" in just under one month! All I changed was technique - Not product. My hair is thriving and beautiful! Oh. And I seal with Mimosa Hair Honey. Boom! :)
I think the game changer for retaining moisture has been not being afraid to wet my hair daily or every other day. Once I obtained a good protein moisture balance my hair started to sort of redefine itself after I’d wet it in the shower or with a spray bottle.
My game changer is hemp oil... I've tried avocado, oil, sweet almond, jojoba, castor... They were all "meh", but hemp seed is the truth! This alongside thwith the camille rose coconut leave-in. I'm high/medium porosity btw
I find Cream of Nature Argan Oil, Moisture Revovery Leave-in Curl Milk to keep my low porosity hair moisturizes for 2-3 days.
A game changer for me was I stopped co washing and went back to shampoo.
Yaaaay!! Hey, Curly Girlie!!! 🥰
Heyyyy! :-D
@@CurlyChemistry 😘
Pre-pooing, co-washing instead of shampooing too often and deep conditioning has helped me with retaining moisture
I’ve recently used henna hair dye and my hair has been seeming softer, shinier, defined etc. And Im not sure if it’s the henna alone or if it’s all the weekly deep conditioning finally catching up….
I swear by bentonite clay and gelatin weekly when it comes to moisturizing my hair. I don't know why, but my hair is prone to becoming over moisturized even though it's low porosity, so on damp hair (usually done with a spray bottle of water and some tea tree oil) I apply a homemade oil mix (usually coconut oil, olive oil, castor oil, and occasionally carrot or avocado oil, infused with a bunch of stimulating herbs like rosemary, ginseng, peppermint, fenugrek and too many more to list) and let it sit for 20 mins or so before applying bentonite clay mixed with acv, aloe, marshmallow root powder, more lavender and tea tree oil and more oil mix. The oil seems to help make my hair slightly less hydrophilic, and the clay cleanses my hair without stripping it and loosens up my curl pattern slightly. After I rinse that out I mix a tbs of gelatin with a bit of water until it starts to bloom, then add in about a half cup of conditioner, apply that and let it sit a bit, then rinse it with tea and water (I read somewhere that tea rinses help restore the hairs natural ph, but honestly I just do it because I like pouring jasmine tea on my head, lol). The gelatin not only serves as a source of protein, but also significantly reduces the amount of frizz. It sounds like a lot but I can get away with moisturizing my hair throughout the week a lot less, and as well as it works on my type 4 hair, it also works wonders on type 3 hair as well (I did it to a friend's type 3 hair and she was super pleased with the results). Then I moisturize with a light leave in, and seal with Black seed oil and sulfur 8 grease or the Coconut blue magic. It's definitely a weekend thing, but having a spa day for your hair is a nice way to fit in some self care while doing something necessary and beneficial for your hair health. I've done it for probably at least 5 years and have never had as moisturized or shiny hair in my life until I started doing this!
Mine is Ivie...this moisturizer loves my high porosity thin hair. The ingredients are amazing in this cream and I love that it has fenugreek and MSM in it
Where did you purchase it?
I'm still scared to use oils for anything besides a hot oil treatment BUT I tried grease recently on just my ends for a braid out then I used it for mini twists my scalp did not itch nor flake like with oil, frizz left me. shine & retained moisture came in for a month.😍
I've noticed grease washes out more easily than oil for me 🤔.
Sectioning the hair makes styling, detangling, washing and conditioning so much faster.
Same here! I love grease
Grate for you. Your knowledge sharing has made an incredible difference in my hair journey. Thank you.
Shea butter and beeswax. I use the LOC method, but the butter feels like it evaporate by the next morning, so I use beeswax to lock everything in. Pre-pooing overnight before washing my hair as well.
Awesome video 👍 I started using an oil pre-poo but I heat it up before I use it so my LP hair can absorb it better. Also I’m incorporating a curling cream in my wash ‘n’ go routine and not just jumping straight to gel after applying my Leave-in. Game changers 😀
Thx, I appreciate the context you bring!
I’m in love with your With your platform one you have taught me so much about growing my hair like I told you before my hair was so damage the whole front of my Hair was gone so I appreciate you so so much because every time you upload a video if I don’t watch it that day I will watch you love your platform thank you
Design Essentials Daily Curl Revitalizing Spray adds great moisture especially when using gels. It tends to soften the crunch of the gel while maintaining the definition of the curl and moisturizing at the same time. It is great I love it!
Thank you for sharing! ☺️
Can u plz make a tutorial video on how to moisturize the scalp? Im having trouble with that
A game changer for me was sealing with oils. My hair loves avocado oil as a sealant and I use coconut oil as a prepoo.
Can you please do a video on the best ways to keep hair moisturized in the up coming cold months for those of us in colder climates? It can be an extension on this and please, please, please speak more on humectants for winter and the best way to use them. I have seen others speak on aloe vera as a humectant but how do I use it in NYC in the winter?
doesn’t coconut oil dry your scalp out?
@@kenisha6262 I don't put it on my scalp, just on my hair.
ok, i might try that
How do you seel your hair with oil? Like when it’s wet? Or dry? After leave in, curling cream and gel? Or when? I struggle with the steps :/
@@Aish115 after I moisturize my hair I put oil on top of the moisturizer to seal in that moisture. My roots get dry quickly so I make sure I coat them well with a moisturizing lotion or cream and the seal it well with oil, or hair grease, or Shea butter.
Melanin Leave-in Conditioner and Melanin Hair Oil, also Ecoslay Banana Conditioner. Steaming and then applying leave in, let absorb a few minutes then seal. If I do this after shampooing my hair stays moisturized for at least 3- 4 days.
I always enjoy your videos. I started using a mango butter cream and sealed at the end and my hair transformed to being moisturized. I’m low porosity.
Seamoss has been a game changer for my natural hair
How do you use it?
@@arethareynolds302 i use the sea moss gel and melt it down with a little water and add a few oils like avocado and a little grape seed oil and when it cools I rub it throughout my hair.. then style it, either two stand twist which is my go too or a protective style
I also use the gel as is (without melting it down) and apply it to my natural hair then style, this helped me with growth
I'm a short natural so curl activator works well for moisturizing my hair.
Two questions. 1. Can we re-moisturize a wash and go? 2. Can we re-moisturize after sealing? Would the oil block the new moisture?
Deep conditioning once a week with heat and hot oil treatments
could do a video on how to moisturize the hair between washdays?
For me definitely the products. I discovered Strands of Faith and it's been an ultimate Game Changer!!!
I’ve heard of that brand before. I have to check them out.
@@CurlyChemistry OMG!!! Please Do! It truly is the Holy Grail!!!
Yes, my hair loves Strands of Faith!
@@gwenncoath8941 only thing I use. Best product hands down.
5:12 For the list of hair oils for the different high and low hair porosities.
I am super-excited 😉 when I see you drop a new video! Still trying to figure out this moisturizing thing but washing more frequently is probably my game changer.
After I do my LOC method, I wear a conditioning cap for about 15 to 20 minutes to lock in the moisture.
Thanks to your suggestion on one of your previous videos, I tried using Kuzu Beeswax Hair/Braid Conditioner as a sealant when I style my hair. I LOVE IT!! Also, use it mid-week to add moisture. I totally have noticed a difference. God Bless you Tonya for your knowledge and your gift you bestow upon us.😍
Love it!! And you’re so welcome!! I’m glad to be here sharing my gift with you all. It’s really an honor. 🥰🤗
Steaming has changed the game for me. I steam in my deep conditioner, and after rinsing and towel drying for about 15-20 mins, I spray aloe vera juice (homemade) and use whatever leave-in I choose that wash day, because it may be homemade or store bought depending on if I have homemade readily available, and I put on a shower cap and sit under the dryer about 10-20 mins. My hair's completely hydrated and moisturized after that. I deep condition every wash day. I then add my cream (TGIN Daily Moisturizing Cream) and my homemade whipped butter, which changes ingredients depending upon what my hair needs that wash day. I typically braid my hair in cornrows and leave it alone for up to 3 weeks. I'll oil my scalp, but my hair's still moisturized when I do decide to wash it again. And because I can stretch wash days by up to 10 more days than normal, my hair's really grown so much more too. I had lots of breakage in my crown section, and it's growing out FAST because I'm mostly leaving it alone. I'm low porosity and once that moisture is in for me, it's really in there!
A good leave in conditioner is a game changer for moisture.
Thank you for all of your amazing tips. Love your videos. I prepoo my hair before I wish it. Using my own oil that I made. And I use Hollywood beauty Jojoba oil and Liv hairdressing grease. It makes my hair shiny, manageable and looking great. I also use Aunt Jackie oh la la Curl Custard. It makes my hair so shiny. Love and Light to you, Curly Chemistry, and everyone here. ❤️❤️🙏🙏☮️☮️
Thank you Carol!!
@@CurlyChemistry you are most welcome! I listened to my intuition. First spoke it into existence how I wanted my hair to be. I was having scalp issues and thinning. I saw a dermatologist. I was washing my hair like every day. Still under her care. And my hair is now thriving and growing. Listened to you and doing your tips and recommendations of products have changed my hair. Thank you!❤️❤️🙏
The PMP method has been a game changer for me! I hadn't used grease in years but my hair retains moisture with it. Thank you!! ❤️
Yesss! So happy to hear that!
@ Yameka H what is the PMP method
Could you please do a tutorial on natural grey hair care. How to strengthen grey brittle hair, retain length and how tame wiry fly aways. Thank you and God bless.
I am planning to get my hair done for the first time with added hair. The style will be a passion twist crochet install. I have medium to low density, super fine stranded, high porosity, 3c hair. How does one moisturize their hair while in protective style? I have no clue about any of it, but am excited and don’t want my hair to dry out as it does so very quickly. Thanks for any help!
Just spray water in the partitions, then seal with a good oil to retain moisture.
Hi! First, thanks for the recommendations. I use aloe vera gel (lily of the desert) , leave in (mielle pomegranate and honey) and I let it sit in with a plastic bag for a couple minutes.
As a relaxed girl, I struggled with dry hair. My stylists never said anything about Moisture and Sealing....smh.. Last year I stumbled upon Hairlicious using As I Am So Much Moisture and it changed my hair life. I have learned about LCO from the natural community and I'm so thankful! My game changer combo is SMM, Mielle Avocado Milk, and Avocado or Sweet Almond oil. It lasts for about 3 days.
I LOVE MIELLE AVOCADO HAIR MILK!!!
S curl is a good moisturizer for me.
It is normal that my hair with high porosity does not like any oil I have already tried jojoba, olive, coconut, almond oil, grapeseed oil when I put any oil or butter my hair gets very hard and I have to use a clarifying shampoo 🥺
Using grease as a sealant, chillleeeeee my hair getting to that mane
Question the Cardi B DIY is it good? Meaning as a moisturizer?
Banana. Avocado. Honey. Mayo. Argan oil. Vitamin E oil. Jojoba oil. Olive oil and blend.
I have used a blend of all these minus mayo as a deep moisturizing conditioner and my hair loves it.
@@arethareynolds302 thank you for letting me know. How long do you leave the moisturizer in your hair
I wonder what’s the difference between leave in and moisturizer.
And whether I should use liquid sprays or creams to moisturize my hair .
I learned from this video, that avocado oil works for high porosity, low porosity, thick hair, and thin hair. Well, I'm getting me some.
Game changer is incorporating Liv hair cream and using grease again.
My holy grail leave-in/moisturizer is from the dollar tree (Who Knew!). My hair ❤️ the Salon Selectivea Frizz control leave-in (blue and white tube). It delivers an Entire experience Each and Every time I use it! It plays nicely with any other products I use as well (butters, oils, grease or moisturizers). Can't say enuf about this stuff!
Hi, I was wondering if you could do a video on how is the best way to get your hair detangled so you don't lose a lot of hair and time. My last wash day I decided to finally make sure I have clean parts. That took the entire day. Please give any tips you can.
