Thank u for getting right to the point. I'm so tired of seeing people flipping their hair and posing for 20 minutes without getting to the point. Great video :-)
Finally Fiona Yes they do. Although I've been using Ayurvedic in my hair care I've learned even more from watching your videos! Thanks for sharing and we look forward to seeing more! 😉
this video has made me realize you can get a bunch of natural powders and do any mix and it will still work!!! now i think i am confident enough to make my own DIYs. the secret seems to be simple: use natural ingredients because they have very few adverse effects.
Faith Chinyimba I've never done Aryuvedic DIYs but once you get started with DIYs you won't want to stop. Now I want to buy only natural products w/ no chemicals or preservatives lol. All of my products are messed up now, I want to give half of them away lol.
You're so on point. Its amazing what we have in our cupboards already that we can use. I just found a detox tea in my cupboard that I got for free last year which has natural herbs (peppermint, burdock etc) lol
I got the idea from curly proverbz😉 she has really lovely recipes. I love that black women are getting into Indian Ayurvedic treatments. My mom always does these. Lovely videos hun xxx
I saw great results after just the first time of doing a henna gloss treatment. It really works. My hair is thriving after consistent use. Great video, with excellent content. Thank you x
I've seen these natural mixture from curly proverb over and over again. But for some reason the way you showed and described makes me want to try them again and I feel like I understand much better.
I literally just made all three ingredients and took just under an hour...my kitchen smells like a science lab lol! Anyway really looking forward to using these and the new regime as the way I'm currently feeling about my hair I am prepared to big chop! Going to give this a go for the next 6 months and see if I get the lustre, shine and bounce back thanks so much Fiona 😉😘
THANK YOU Fiona! I've been watching Curly Proverbz too regarding Henna treatments but was unsure as we have different hair textures. But you've convinced and converted me. Thanks for sharing x
Wow! I had a hair loss issue a couple of years ago and used Ayurvedic powders to stop it. Best thing I ever discovered and did. My mix had henna, amla, neem, orange peel powder and crushed methi (fenugreek). It worked wonders
I just made my first batch of henna gloss treatment last week! I made the tea this week and I can truly say, I’m shook!! In a great way! My hair loves it! I’m still trying to determine if my scalp does. I have a problem with seborrheic dermatitis and no store bought products nor meds are working! Oils really agitate it so I’m hesitant to try the oil recipe. However, I love the other two for sure!! Thank you so much!!! ❤
I'm so hqppy you mentioned MSM powder. I initially bought it to use it as a drink, but after literally throwing up as it is sooooooo bitter. Instead of throwing it away I thought whynot use it as a spritz. Seeing your video I can happily continue that way and also add it to my oils. Thsnk you for this thorough video.
That tea recipe is a game changer 🙌 Thank you so much for sharing. I add 1 tsp of Chebe powder to mine. I use it as a pre-proo to detangle my hair. It's reduced my shedding, leaves my scalp clean and makes my hair supermoisturized. It makes the wash process easier and faster.
Fiona, thank you for caring enough to share this information with others. Many times people have great feedback, ideas, and inspiration but keep it to themselves. I love the fact that you put the information in a written format where it's easy to go shopping and follow the recipe versus having to watch the video several times. Thank you for being so thorough and giving. May your kindness continue to be returned to you a thousandfold.
Finally Fiona My pleasure. We should all strive to uplift one another. Question, for the oil can you use fenugreek oil instead of the seed? If so, how much/how many drop should be used?
Can I just say you are gorgeous first off. Second thank you for breaking this down and making it so easy to follow. I really needed the how too portion bad and I didn’t have to wait 20 mins to get the ingredients. YAS love you for that. Now I need to show me that hair calendar you had at the beginning of this video. I’m trying to lock down a simple yet consistent regimen. If you could do that I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.
Great video! Alternatively, you could also mix a batch of henna (100 grams) and amla (25 grams) or your favorite fruit acid, separately, then freeze the dye released henna into ice trays. That way, with each mask or tea you could pull from the henna ice when needed. :) When the henna thaws, all of its nurturing properties will be in tact and instantly available.
Just discovered your videos and subscribed. I was diagnosed with severe alopecia and have tried several remedies...nothing works. Am excited to try these recipes as some of the ingredients appear to have what I need. Thank you for sharing and I look forward to following you.
Love this!! I was inspired by your last video to make a DIY daily hair mist with green tea, redbush tea (which has amazing properties for hair too), PLUS I added diced onions (sulphur). Boiled in water and infused for a couple of hours. Already noticed a difference in my hair, less shedding and more strength! I'll try bamboo tea :)
The character of my hair is very different from yours but I'm experiencing shock loss... I recently had facial feminization surgery with a hair line advancement and have been pulling out fist-fulls of hair on wash day since. I'm making your marshmallow detangler spray right now and bowing at your tutelage. Thank you for documenting the results of your healing journey and sharing so generously. I'm now a subscriber. :D
Aurelie Richards so sorry to hear that. I can't imagine how tough that must be. I pray it gets better - one day at a time. So sweet of you to subscribe xxx
Oh my gosh. I’ve heard the some of the same info in other videos but your voice and direct approach is great. You showed how to make the recipe and how you use them.
FABULOUS recipes! -I was looking to add some variety to the Ayurvedic hair blends I already make, and you have some great ones here (I especially love the herbal spray though, and can alternate it with my henna tea spray). Thanks!
You are so gracious to respond to so many comments. Also loved the fact that you scheduled Devotional time on your goal planner😉🙌. This video is awesome, very informative and done with such grace & humility. I will definitely check out your channel & subscribe. Many blessings to you 💞👑
Ok... I am on-board! I have been half-assed on my regimen but my hair has just broken a lot in the middle of my scalp and I am very hesitant to see a derm who I know will only order cortisone shots to my scalp....been there, done that. I am definitely going to make this oil and try the spray as well. Great video & editing! Thank you
Not much tbh. I let my oil soak for almost two weeks so I really just started with the oil. I think I need to give it a full 3 months to see any progress
I used the double boiler method so i could get too using my oil right away and got the same results as if i waited for the oil infuse for 2 weeks long.
I use Fenugreek powder when I make indian Uttapam which is a breakfast pancake. I have started looking at vegan Indian meals to eat healthy and help my hair grow. Good video!
I just had to cut off over 3 inches of hair yesterday. Because of sooo much shedding and breakage I’ve experienced over the last few months. 😭💇🏽♀️ Will have to try these. I already do the henna gloss (just henna).
Thank you for sharing this easy recipe! I'm sure there are tons of us who appreciate your Sharing. I'm trying it this week. How often do you recommend using the Henna gloss treatment?
It’s always a pleasure, thank you for your kind words. I personally use it once every two weeks ecause this is how often I wash my hair. If you wash more often I would say to observe how your hair feels with such use and if you don’t like the way it feels you can reduce it to twice a month x
What a great and informative video! I just discovered you and subscribed because your hair looks a lot like mine :) And thanks for sharing the purchase links. Could you tell me if the henna colours your hair? I don't want my greys to turn orange!
Fran Clark so glad to have you join the family! The henna has definitely given my hair a redish brown tint in the sunlight. An alternative should you not want the colour would probably be Cassia powder
Wow so glad I came across your channel! I started trying out henna glosses last week and my hair loved it! Going to try again tonight, but I am going to make a batch of the tea rinse as well!! thanks for sharing!! :D
Hi Fiona, great video❤️ Could you possibly explain henna dye release please. Do you leave the mixture before use to let the dye get stronger? You use it to cover your greys , I thought henna made your hair red, but your hair doesn’t look red? Many thanks, Misha
Thank you posting this! My hair hasn't been the same since 2015 so I'm excited to see something natural that works. Is this a regimen that you will continue forever or just until your hair is back to what you would like it to be?
That’s a great question! I plan on using this regimen for 6 - 9 months max, at which point I’m hoping I don’t have to rely on it as much. I will definitely folowing an Ayurvedic inspired regimen for the rest of my hair journey but will also use other store bought or DIY’ed non ayurvedic products here and there x I really hope it helps you, do let me know x
Angela Brown I keep the spray for max 2 - 3 weeks. I aim for 2 weeks but if my schedule is tight 3 weeks is my max. For the oil I make a new batch every month so four weeks is my max
Brilliant precise video!!! I too am about to start an ayurvedic hair regimen and super excited. Just collating all my choosen ingredients then going in full swing!! Whoop whoop
Exquisite Lady 😊 I wash my hair every two weeks so the gloss is used once every two weeks. I never do a straight henna treatment, my hair doesn't respond well to that at all! I do however do a different type of henna treatment/henna mask treatment every other month which contains a higher amount of henna than used in this recipe xxx
Hey girl, thanks for this information. You said how you use the tea., but how do you use the gloss and henna treatment and how often? I am a new subscriber please respond.
Hi lovely, so sorry I’m responding so late. I used the henna gloss as a deep conditioning treatment every 2 weeks. I would apply it as shown in this video: ua-cam.com/video/_TiOUQhx1XM/v-deo.html and then leave it in for approx 30 minutes and then rinse out x
Wow this is the first I've heard of this type of treatment, I'm wondering if I can make some adjustments to use on my loc'd hair. Great video....Subscribed😊
:) thank you. My sister is also loc’d and uses the hair oil. Henna she doesn’t because it will leave deposits in her hair and the tea spray she hasn’t tried just yet x
Thank you, thank you for the step by step process and the accompanying websites to place orders for the products. Thank you for being candid about shedding. Can I use the mask, oil and tea on my 4 year old daughter?
Urla Eversley-Moses it really is my pleasure 💕 I wouldn't advise using the mix on a four year old because of potential sensitivities and the potency of the mix. I'm also not sure about the age guidelines on ingredients such as msm so would check that first. You can definitely make a similar mix using just the Oils and a small dosage of the Ayurvedic powders/herbs and observe how her hair responds to this. X
Hiya, from CProverbs videos I watched, Gloss is generally advised weekly use (unless you are henna-masking that week-HM is monthly) and after shampoo, as part of the Deep conditioner mixture- ie a spoon of the Ayurvedic powder in your DC mixture. Hope this helps?
I had 2 brain surgeries in April and have discovered that I'm losing my hair through excessive shedding. I'm desperate to figure out what to do. There's so much to choose from to decide what to do. Also, what is your regimen? What is the sequence that you use each recipe? What steps/products do the recipes replace? Thanks!
Hi La Tanya, so sorry to hear about your excessive shedding. I’m glad the surgeries went well and your here to tell your story! I have a video published just before this one where I share my regimen in detail. The recipes only replace 1) My prepoo product which used to be the 'Philip Kingsley Elasticizer Extreme’ and 2) My Deep Conditioner which I now mix with Henna Remain blessed x
La Tanya Wright I'm afraid I've only used a clay once and that was a while ago so I can't recommend it. There are lots of clay wash videos by naturals on YT. Perhaps you can see what you think based on those videos. X
I have been natural for 4 years now and noticed that the front of my hair will grow and leave the back, i started blaming myself that i sometimes in the pass tied my hair too tight and that could be the reason why it refuses to grow, ive never been able to put my hair up in a bun something i find at time really annoying and frustrating
Hello Finally Fiona, thank you sharing bountiful video of helpful information. I just subscribed to you a couple of weeks ago, but this the first video I've truly experienced. I love your energy and your straight forwardness. Sis, again great info! Respect to you and your flow!!
If I had not have kept reading the comments, I would've thought this was Curlyproverbz recipe with a twist...Do you still use the scalp lotion with aloe vera? I tried it, but it did not work for me...my aloe vera was expired though. maybe that was the case. Do you notice any difference bet. fenugreek seeds vs. it's powder form?
Yep, a few comments suggesting the same thing, I think I’ve addressed that topic enough now. I no longer use the lotion, I found that as long as I wash my hair at least twice a month my scalp is happy. I love Aloe Vera but felt I could get so many more benefits form using various oils on my scalp so went back to using oils instead. Good point, maybe it was because it was expired - worth trying again maybe? :) I’ve never used the powder form but can’t imagine them differing much. Both would have time to steep in the oil so I think either is fine x
Thank u Fiona for this nice recipe I have been having really bad shading for months now sooo confused on what to do,saw lots of videos on UA-cam but this is the one am going to give a try I hope it works for me.i will come back with good news (Hopefully)
Hi do you find the Henna gloss is less grainy when you make it this way? I did a henna treatment and spent a long time trying to wash it out due to the grainy feeling from the mask
Hi JC B - I deep condition under a heat cap anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. Without the heat cap I would go for as long as 2 hours. Yes you can keep it in the fridge, it won’t last as long as in the freezer but it should be fine for 1 - 1.5 weeks x
There sure are :) Cassia powder is a great alternative. It’s results are not as long lsting but definitely are great - curlynikki.com has some great articles that refer to Cassia x
I usually add the oils before straining because I may forget to do so afterwards but both ways are equally as effective. I add 10 - 15 drops of each, more of the fragrance I prefer and less of the fragrance/oil I prefer the least x
Hi Hope you can help me. I've been doing using aloe vera powder in my henna gloss, leave in and deep conditioners but it leaves behind residues similar to flakes. Have you tried aloe vera powder or do you have any tips to combat the residue please
Unfortunately I’ve not used the aloe powder, have you tried aloe juice or pule aloe gel instead? I definitely think it may be worth trying something else if the mix isn’t working for you with the powder. x
Would henna powder dye or tint blonde hair? My hair is naturally dark blonde and I would love to try out this regimen but don't want my hair to go darker
Hi Anni, yes it definitely will. if you don’t want the colouring effects Cassia will most likely be your best option as it doesn’t have the same colouring effect x
Is the sage that you’re using for your hair the same sage that is used to burn? I have white sage that is used to burn is that the same as you’re using?
The tea bag is green tea. In the initial demo I ripped the tea bag open to show its contents, but for the recipe itself the tea bag is used. I used enough aloe vera to fill my tea cup x
i get my aloe vera juice from CVS and its like $11 for a pretty big jug. it'll be in the dietary isle. its all natural. no need of spending hella money on products
Thank u for getting right to the point. I'm so tired of seeing people flipping their hair and posing for 20 minutes without getting to the point.
Great video :-)
I’ll keep this in mind for when I’m temped to do this in a future video! :) - thanks !!!!
Loool that's jokes I always skip that part
TrangPak2 Okaaaay! So true
There's this thing you can do call fast foward. Idk if you know about it ☺🙃

I have recently too started an ayurvedic regimen too. And OMG the results I've seen!!!! Ladies its worth it!
omg, please, do you use henna?
Ebizzill Yes, just started with the glosses. But I've been using the teas for a while on and off!
Meeiko Moon team Ayurveda!!! That's exactly how I felt after using it for a month. The results speak for themselves
Finally Fiona Yes they do. Although I've been using Ayurvedic in my hair care I've learned even more from watching your videos! Thanks for sharing and we look forward to seeing more! 😉
Meeiko Moon does the henna dye the hair?

Faith Chinyimba you're very right!!! Most if not all Ayurvedic powders are amazing! Go for it, I'm sure you'll whip up something awesome! x
Faith Chinyimba I've never done Aryuvedic DIYs but once you get started with DIYs you won't want to stop. Now I want to buy only natural products w/ no chemicals or preservatives lol. All of my products are messed up now, I want to give half of them away lol.

OMG first timer, your video straight to the point, clear instructions and great for beginners. I will definitely try it out. Thanks so much
My pleasure! Really happy you enjoyed it xxx
I've seen these natural mixture from curly proverb over and over again. But for some reason the way you showed and described makes me want to try them again and I feel like I understand much better.
Love that we're all here helping each other!! Curly Proverbz has also been helping out
Naturally Lis she's a star! Yes so glad that we all are!
I literally just made all three ingredients and took just under an hour...my kitchen smells like a science lab lol! Anyway really looking forward to using these and the new regime as the way I'm currently feeling about my hair I am prepared to big chop! Going to give this a go for the next 6 months and see if I get the lustre, shine and bounce back thanks so much Fiona 😉😘
Hi @ghbrit 😊 are you still using the mixture, if so how has the mixture treated your hair?
THANK YOU Fiona! I've been watching Curly Proverbz too regarding Henna treatments but was unsure as we have different hair textures. But you've convinced and converted me. Thanks for sharing x
Shardae Carr aww my pleasure Shardae!! Lots of Curly Proverbz subbies have said the same x
Wow! I had a hair loss issue a couple of years ago and used Ayurvedic powders to stop it. Best thing I ever discovered and did. My mix had henna, amla, neem, orange peel powder and crushed methi (fenugreek). It worked wonders
Can I just say I am so excited to try these! Just ordered everything on Amazon! Here's to reaching our hair goals ladies!!👏🏾🙌🏾
Whoop whoop! Very excited for you! Keep me posted on how everything goes x
I just made my first batch of henna gloss treatment last week! I made the tea this week and I can truly say, I’m shook!! In a great way! My hair loves it!

I love this! 😍 So hard to get 'natural' products these days and keep up with a regime but you make it look so easy 😩 lol
Charnte Mariah thanks lovely! It was a process buying everything but now that I have them it's so easy honestly 😊😘
That tea recipe is a game changer 🙌 Thank you so much for sharing. I add 1 tsp of Chebe powder to mine. I use it as a pre-proo to detangle my hair. It's reduced my shedding, leaves my scalp clean and makes my hair supermoisturized. It makes the wash process easier and faster.

Godrej Napur has a henna mix of nine ayurvedic powders for less than five bucks on eBay. Most of which she mentioned. Its in green packaging.
I just had to cut off over 3 inches of hair yesterday. Because of sooo much shedding and breakage I’ve experienced over the last few months. 😭💇🏽♀️
Will have to try these. I already do the henna gloss (just henna).
..a million thx for being so ultra patient in making this video!! I can't wait to try it!!
pleasure hun x
I am new to your channel and have watched others for years. Sitting in my pantry....maca powder...I never knew....Thank you
Thank you ! Hope this helps with my horrible shedding . Thank you for getting straight to the point ❤️
Several questions....do you have to deep condition after the gloss? Can you use the growth oil as a sealant even after using the tea?
franchiseplaya75 yes you have to deep condition after
franchiseplaya75 the gloss itself is a deep conditioner so NO don’t deep condition again
And yes, you can use the oil as a sealant
Hi Fiona, this was so clear, precise and too the point. Awesome explanation.
thank you Sandra, so glad you enjoyed it x
Thank you for sharing this easy recipe! I'm sure there are tons of us who appreciate your Sharing. I'm trying it this week. How often do you recommend using the Henna gloss treatment?
It’s always a pleasure, thank you for your kind words. I personally use it once every two weeks ecause this is how often I wash my hair. If you wash more often I would say to observe how your hair feels with such use and if you don’t like the way it feels you can reduce it to twice a month x
Excellent video! Where did you buy the small cloth mesh strainer with the handle? That's a perfect DIY tool! ♥️
I want one too!
Mona Myers thank you! I bought mine in Thailand but they are also sold on eBay. I've updated the description bar with a link for you xxx

Hi lovely! Really glad to hear that! Do let me know how you find the tea rinse x
Thank for the informative video 👏🥺
I was wondering if I could use sage powder as an alternative
WoW she goes above and beyond. Thank you for the information
I actually bought Henna and alma the other day, just waiting for it to come in the mail! Trying to make sure I know how to use it before it comes!
Excellent video, can’t wait to try the henna. Thank you for listing everything too ❤️.
Thanks for the info hun. You're the gift that keeps on giving
Thank you for the love, it’s so appreciated x
Hi Fiona, great video❤️

What is the shelf life of the oil and spray? And how long can you keep the Henna Gloss in the freezer?
Angela Brown I keep the spray for max 2 - 3 weeks. I aim for 2 weeks but if my schedule is tight 3 weeks is my max. For the oil I make a new batch every month so four weeks is my max
Angela Brown sorry you asked about the gloss! For the gloss 4 - 6 weeks. X
Finally Fiona how many times should I use the gloss in a month?
.
Brilliant precise video!!! I too am about to start an ayurvedic hair regimen and super excited. Just collating all my choosen ingredients then going in full swing!!
Whoop whoop
Ms Blessedness that's awesome. I hope it's as amazing for you as it has been for me! X
Do you use the henna gloss weekly and straight henna monthly? Also never thought of boiling aloe vera juice for the tea rinse. Thanks for the info 😊
Exquisite Lady 😊 I wash my hair every two weeks so the gloss is used once every two weeks. I never do a straight henna treatment, my hair doesn't respond well to that at all! I do however do a different type of henna treatment/henna mask treatment every other month which contains a higher amount of henna than used in this recipe xxx
Exquisite Lady ah yes good old Aloe Vera juice. I tried it in Thailand a few years ago and figured why not! 😊 thanks for the love x
Hey girl, thanks for this information. You said how you use the tea., but how do you use the gloss and henna treatment and how often? I am a new subscriber please respond.
Hi lovely, so sorry I’m responding so late. I used the henna gloss as a deep conditioning treatment every 2 weeks. I would apply it as shown in this video: ua-cam.com/video/_TiOUQhx1XM/v-deo.html and then leave it in for approx 30 minutes and then rinse out x
Wow this is the first I've heard of this type of treatment, I'm wondering if I can make some adjustments to use on my loc'd hair. Great video....Subscribed😊
:) thank you. My sister is also loc’d and uses the hair oil. Henna she doesn’t because it will leave deposits in her hair and the tea spray she hasn’t tried just yet x
Thanks for the info and providing the links to the products was extra awesome. ❤️
Bless you, thank you 💕
Thank you, thank you for the step by step process and the accompanying websites to place orders for the products. Thank you for being candid about shedding.
Can I use the mask, oil and tea on my 4 year old daughter?
Urla Eversley-Moses it really is my pleasure 💕 I wouldn't advise using the mix on a four year old because of potential sensitivities and the potency of the mix. I'm also not sure about the age guidelines on ingredients such as msm so would check that first. You can definitely make a similar mix using just the Oils and a small dosage of the Ayurvedic powders/herbs and observe how her hair responds to this. X
How frequently do you use the gloss? Is it done before or after a shampoo? Or do you use it as as a cleanser?
The video doesn't say.
Hiya, from CProverbs videos I watched, Gloss is generally advised weekly use (unless you are henna-masking that week-HM is monthly) and after shampoo, as part of the Deep conditioner mixture- ie a spoon of the Ayurvedic powder in your DC mixture. Hope this helps?
@@Prov31Beauty-Seeinglassfull thank you so much. This is very helpful.
I am looking forward to doing this treatment. Its similar to the treatment in Chad in Africa. They hair grow up to 30 inches.
Hi love,
so right now I am wearing weaves. do you think the tea spray will be beneficial since you use it every other day?
Thanks love,
Meka
Shammeka Weise Yep
Thanks so much for this vid, Miss Fiona! Need to try it. God's Grace to you sis!
I had 2 brain surgeries in April and have discovered that I'm losing my hair through excessive shedding. I'm desperate to figure out what to do. There's so much to choose from to decide what to do. Also, what is your regimen? What is the sequence that you use each recipe? What steps/products do the recipes replace? Thanks!
Hi La Tanya, so sorry to hear about your excessive shedding. I’m glad the surgeries went well and your here to tell your story! I have a video published just before this one where I share my regimen in detail. The recipes only replace 1) My prepoo product which used to be the 'Philip Kingsley Elasticizer Extreme’ and 2) My Deep Conditioner which I now mix with Henna
Remain blessed x
Finally Fiona: Is a bentonite clay treatment something you'd recommend also?
La Tanya Wright I'm afraid I've only used a clay once and that was a while ago so I can't recommend it. There are lots of clay wash videos by naturals on YT. Perhaps you can see what you think based on those videos. X
I have been natural for 4 years now and noticed that the front of my hair will grow and leave the back, i started blaming myself that i sometimes in the pass tied my hair too tight and that could be the reason why it refuses to grow, ive never been able to put my hair up in a bun something i find at time really annoying and frustrating
thank you so much for this, i cant wait to try this out.
Aisha Alabi my pleasure Hun. Can't wait for you to try it too x
Awesome video! I have to use the oil recipe. Thank you girl..xoxo
Hello Finally Fiona, thank you sharing bountiful video of helpful information. I just subscribed to you a couple of weeks ago, but this the first video I've truly experienced. I love your energy and your straight forwardness. Sis, again great info! Respect to you and your flow!!
If I had not have kept reading the comments, I would've thought this was Curlyproverbz recipe with a twist...Do you still use the scalp lotion with aloe vera? I tried it, but it did not work for me...my aloe vera was expired though. maybe that was the case. Do you notice any difference bet. fenugreek seeds vs. it's powder form?
Yep, a few comments suggesting the same thing, I think I’ve addressed that topic enough now. I no longer use the lotion, I found that as long as I wash my hair at least twice a month my scalp is happy. I love Aloe Vera but felt I could get so many more benefits form using various oils on my scalp so went back to using oils instead. Good point, maybe it was because it was expired - worth trying again maybe? :)
I’ve never used the powder form but can’t imagine them differing much. Both would have time to steep in the oil so I think either is fine x
Um-hmm....thanks.
Have you ever mixed the gloss with yogurt instead of conditioner?
Thank you for the informative video :). For the tea spray do you only use hot aloe vera juice to steep the tea or hot water?
Mariko Dela Rosa my pleasure Mariko 💕 yes I used hot aloe Vera juice and steeped the ingredients inside it. I didn't use hot water x
Finally Fiona thank you !
How long do you leave the gloss in your hair before you rinse it out? Do you ever use shampoo in your hair? If so, at what point?
Can i mix the tea with some oil to make a box braids spray or would it affect it? Great video!!
I have fine hair already but experienced a lot of shedding, thinning, dry hair. How often to use the henna mask?
I use it every 2 weeks x
if you warm/toast the powders then add the oils wouldn't it penetrate into the oil more?
Flashynista that's true! I'm so used to just letting them sit for a few days, but that's a great idea too x
this was very thoughtfully delivered. Thank you sharing.
always a pleasure x
Thank u Fiona for this nice recipe I have been having really bad shading for months now sooo confused on what to do,saw lots of videos on UA-cam but this is the one am going to give a try I hope it works for me.i will come back with good news (Hopefully)
Did it work?
been waiting for thiz!! Thank you so very much 👍
nishani3 my pleasure Hun thanks for watching xx
Hi! What’s the difference between an Ayurvedic gloss, mask, and deep condition?
Hello, Fiona! How many drops of the rosemary and peppermint oil do you use in your hair growth oil?
Hi Fiona, you said you use henna for your grey, how does the henna affect your grey with this recipe. Do you add indigo?
im a natural blonde now bleached blonde will the henna gloss color my hair? if so how long would it last?
Hi do you find the Henna gloss is less grainy when you make it this way? I did a henna treatment and spent a long time trying to wash it out due to the grainy feeling from the mask
Yes 100% - the grainy feeling wasn’t near as much as with a straight henna treatment x
Hi Fiona. How long should I deep condition with the henna gloss? Also, can I put the gloss in the fridge instead of the freezer?
Hi JC B - I deep condition under a heat cap anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. Without the heat cap I would go for as long as 2 hours. Yes you can keep it in the fridge, it won’t last as long as in the freezer but it should be fine for 1 - 1.5 weeks x
Thanks for replying Fiona! Well, i'm going to use it up. Its currently been in the fridge for 2 weeks already. But I'll freeze it now.
Hey love, I love this but are there any replacements for the henna since I don't want to darken my hair ?
There sure are :) Cassia powder is a great alternative. It’s results are not as long lsting but definitely are great - curlynikki.com has some great articles that refer to Cassia x
Thank you !
Would it be safe to use the DC as a pre poo and sleep with it overnight or would I get hydral fatigue?
Thank you for thinking about your sisters in the US.. Great video!
Thank you so much for taking the time to really explain this.
my absolute pleasure x
is the tea a leave in?
Yes it is x
Great Video. I'm going to try to make these. Thanks for sharing!
Oby Nnadi that's amazing! let me know how you get on! X
Thank you for the tips. Do you rinse the oil out or leave it in?
How much of the essential oils do I put in the hair oil and do include the essential oils before or after straining?
I usually add the oils before straining because I may forget to do so afterwards but both ways are equally as effective. I add 10 - 15 drops of each, more of the fragrance I prefer and less of the fragrance/oil I prefer the least x
Great video
I have fine Indian hair would I use the same quantities? Also will the henna give a reddish tinge to the hair?
Hi Hope you can help me. I've been doing using aloe vera powder in my henna gloss, leave in and deep conditioners but it leaves behind residues similar to flakes. Have you tried aloe vera powder or do you have any tips to combat the residue please
Unfortunately I’ve not used the aloe powder, have you tried aloe juice or pule aloe gel instead? I definitely think it may be worth trying something else if the mix isn’t working for you with the powder. x
Finally Fiona Ok thank you. I've used the juice in the past, want to get the plant and see how that goes.
Fiona! Thanks for the US links. Lifesaver 💜💜
Hello, when you use the henna treatment does it color your hair?
Lisa Butler definitely yes
The way I've been anticipating this since Sunday, I clicked so quick LOL! Thank you for taking the time to make yet another amazing video Fiona x
Ify Osakwe bless you! I almost didn't post it because my internet was acting up!!!! Thanks for the support Hun. Hope it was helpful xxx
Would henna powder dye or tint blonde hair? My hair is naturally dark blonde and I would love to try out this regimen but don't want my hair to go darker
Hi Anni, yes it definitely will. if you don’t want the colouring effects Cassia will most likely be your best option as it doesn’t have the same colouring effect x
Thank you!!
Is the sage that you’re using for your hair the same sage that is used to burn? I have white sage that is used to burn is that the same as you’re using?
In your second recipe, what is in the tea bag given that the green tea was in powder form? Also how much is a mug of Aloe Vera Juice? Thanks.
The tea bag is green tea. In the initial demo I ripped the tea bag open to show its contents, but for the recipe itself the tea bag is used. I used enough aloe vera to fill my tea cup x
i get my aloe vera juice from CVS and its like $11 for a pretty big jug. it'll be in the dietary isle. its all natural. no need of spending hella money on products
and I use the Aussie anyway ( just started using it a few months ago!)
:) How are you finding it? x
Finally Fiona it's great!! I love it!!
