Guys! thanks in advance for holding me down while I do these sponsorships... your good sis needs the coins right now so please click these links so I can get more opportunities 😩 When the time is right, I will share exactly why but for now, just know that I need to shame the Devil... Periodt!
A great way to retain moisture is oil rinsing. Do it almost every wash day. After shampoo and deep conditioner ofc. High Porosity: Avocado Oil and Olive Oil Low Porosity: Grapeseed Oil and Jojoba Oil
Moringa , Green tea rince every wash day + protein treatment once a month did help me stop the shedding and retain 11 inch for the past 2 years since big chop🙌🏽
Okaaay green tea rinses it is!! 👌🏾😌 imma have to look this one up though, because I’m low porosity. I’m assuming it won’t make a difference... right? 🤔🥴
@@SavySavannah. because you are low porosity you should rince your hair with warm green tea so like that it's can penetrate properly 😊 but not too hot cause one day I almost burn my scalp🤣
@@MyeshaB I use the aveeno oat milk blend protein hair mask but whatever mask you see in the ingredients ( hydrolyzed milk protein) is the one cause it's the most important ingredient who really lets everything penetrate inside the hair shaft.
As a classic high porosity, FINE strands and low density, I REALLY appreciate this video! I feel seen, and I found myself nodding my head and cosigning on everything you were saying. Thank youuu! 💜
Would you mind sharing how you do it specifically? Like what type of protein and powders and what’s your process. My HP hair is mid back length and is becoming so dry and brittle and won’t style at all.
@@jaylamichele332 when my hair got about 2" from WL, it felt like if I pulled it down to length check, the tips would disintegrate in my fingers. My hair STRUGGLED to get to WL. I found an amino acid complex on Amazon. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. I use it on my ends only before I put in my leave in condish. My problem was my moisturizers were over moisturizing my hair. The kick of protein was exactly what the ends of my hair needed to be strong. I also put amla, brahmi, henna, & indigo powder ...henna and indigo WILL PERMANENTLY color your hair (I'm gray)...in a jar with olive, avocado, &/or grapeseed oil. I add any number of essential oils and leave that to baste for a week. I put LOTS of this oil and herbs in my deep condish AND the oil on my scalp after my leave in condish and pull it through the hair, then put my moisturizer on top. No more over-moisturized ends. It started retaining length IMMEDIATELY. I saw retained length by the next month. I also committed to giving up my wash and go for a while. I now braid it or twist it weekly, wearing twist outs for 2 days max. Then it's washday again. Consistency. I'm now a hair's breadth past WL... for the first time in my life... At 57... an age when most women are cutting it off.
@@jaylamichele332 Sukesh Ayurveda from Hennasooq.com is a great alternative for henna free protein treatments. It has cassia obovata, amla, brahmin, bring an, shikaikai & a bunch of others in it. It won't color your hair. Check it out. My hair loves it! I use it as a gloss by taking a bit of the powder (up to 1 tablespoon) mix it with distilled water & stir in some of my DC.
ShaunieBNaturalista thank you so much! I will try these! I’ve also just started back with vitamins as I’ve always been iron and vitamin d deficient and noticed much shedding! I’ve clipped my ends and I’ve had less breakage since and I’m committed to moisturizing as I’d neglected my hair bc of school!!!! THANK YOU so much again!!!!! Blessings!
High porosity has not been addressed in most videos, that I have been watching. The 3 tips that you provided were an eye opener, especially the PH in products. Very informative, and to the point. Thanks for this video.
Neffy I need a tut on that wrap too plz? Your plants look so happy.. i finally got me a monstera and a Laurentiis snake plant both are huge and were affordable. Im so excited.
@@The.Whoever, i have 2 dogs they dont bother my plants. I have about 35 plants. Ive always had plants and dogs so idk what that's about. I think most plants are toxic but idk anyone eating their plants. Good luck.
Random: I styled my hair today like you did for your video, 3 steps to eliminate dryness. The video is three years old, but I saved it as a favorite because I thought that style was stunning on you. I got tons of compliments. Thank you!
🎶"My Girlfriends. There through thick and thin". 🎶🤭 I'm so glad you're able to watch it. Enjoy, Love. Thank you for the tips and advice. Take care. Stay safe and healthy. ❤ Rest In Power Chadwick Boseman ✊🏾❤🖤
Awesome video, makes me want to start formulating again. I’ve stuck with body products in the past but maybe I’m ready for hair products, thanks for the inspiration 😊
Every time i plan to deep condition my hair i pre poo with various oils on my scalp and rice water. Gentle protein every few weeks/month and then deep conditioning with heat...then closing the cuticle with heavier oils and butters is what’s been a game changer to my high porosity hair. Also learned it’s not worth it to keep my hair straight. My hair swells and absorbs moisture bc it’s healthy high porosity hair, so I’ve learned styles my hair like that don’t require a lot of manipulation and my hair has flourished recently.

Thank you so much for this video, I didn’t know PH was a thing for us with high porosity. ACV and Ayurveda changed made a huge difference for me. Thank you for informative videos, get your coin ❤️
Firstly, well done on the level of detail and obvious hardworking you put into every “school session” 😁 Well done and long may it continue!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Now, porosity, schmorosity! I tell you this is a confusing topic as my hair displays mixed characteristics. The closest I have come to understanding is watching GreenBeauty’s video on it. Suffice to say, I pay attention to what my hair likes/dislikes and act accordingly. Lady Liberty is a diva and wastes no time in letting me know when I “done her wrong”😂🤣😂🤣.
Sis can I get the deets on the glasses? I need new frames and I want to upgrade.. lol Oan ima need a hoodie that says plant mom and foc with design and V neck tees plz
Great content and I loved that you backed up everything scientifically 🖤... Does anyone know of any product examples that sit on each side of the pH scale?
Oh girlllll i LOVE YOU and you're HAIR and i LOVE and adore curly proverbz although i don't agree with the porosity thing i LOVE that you and her do a lot of herbal so thanks for keeping it natural
Laila Washington- FusionofCultures I understand. it’s just i’m not suppose to use protein treatments too often. shampoos are stripping etc. just needed a do and don’t and tweak from there.
Question, so regarding a good ph balance product, after ive washed my hair and then moisturized my hair, my next day hair should not be crunchy or it's the ph of my hair products😮😮😮😮😮? Please tell me because I'm ALWAYS crunchy on a daily next day both a wash and after a daily moisturizing session.
Your explanations are all over the place sounds like your explaining one thing over but in a different way.. my daughter hair is long but since its high porosity.. I just need products that will keep her hair motorised n not sucking up all the products
Can you tell me if i have low or high porosity hair,,, every night i moisture and oil my hair, wake up in the morning my hair is dry as if i never moisture or oil my scalp. Btw im natural. Please help me
Im not sure of my porosity , even after tests. I thought I was lowpo cuz I experienced protein sensitivity in the past, but I’ve been avoiding protein products for years and my hair seems to be worse. Idk.
Same. I hadnt uses protein in so long cuz I was so sensitive. Ive been struggling with Single stand knots and breakage. I used the aphogee 2 minute corrector last week and its definitely what my hair needed.
are your hair strands fine? It's possible that you're not protein sensitive but that your hair can only take small proteins (proteins with smaller molecules - i.e. anything hydrolyzed)
I would try Catherine Marion's protein treatment powder. I find it works very well on fine textured hair. If your hair doesn't like that one, you're either protein sensitive or your hair is too dry/brittle.
Thank you Sis, for all the helpful information. I have been searching for balance since I have low porosity but my daughter has high porosity. The struggle was real in these parts, but we're getting it together ❤. Side note: I loved😍😍 seeing you in those beautiful white dresses! I'm not sure what it was for, but you slayed on IG!

1) know your hair porosity
2) regar protein treatments
3) Ph balanced hair products

You are so welcome! You are seen 😘
This sums up my hair too. So I definitely need to apply the tips in this video.
Knowing your hair porosity is definitely a game changer when looking out for products.
Game. Changer.
I wish the natural hair community and really the hair community as a whole was promoting this rather than the number alphabet game.
WEEKLY use of protein on my ends & ayurvedic powders/oil in deep condish made a HUGE diff for my naturally high porosity hair. It catapulted me to WL.
Would you mind sharing how you do it specifically? Like what type of protein and powders and what’s your process. My HP hair is mid back length and is becoming so dry and brittle and won’t style at all.

“I make sense in my mind” - best line in the video!💚LoL
I love this video. She definitely speaking facts. The info about ph really is true. If the ph is not acidic my hair becomes very tangled and dry.
Yes! Thank you!
Hmmm maybe thats why my hair hates aloe vera.It tangles and is like immediately stripped when I use it. Ahhhh it makes sense now 🤯
@@lovedestinae6997 my hair hates aloe also I thought because it has protein properties 🤷🏾♀️

First to comment😁
The tips are so useful, i do plan on incorporating apple cider vinegar into my hair regimen. Love your content❤
Glad it was helpful Chanda! Glad to have you as part of the fam 😘

Thanks....Especially for tip number three☺
You're so welcome!
Yaaaasss!! Liked video even before watching. ☺️ love hearing your voice sis!
You're the best! Thanks Ugochi 😘😘 Appreciate you
So Beautiful!! And that head wrap I’m loving it!!! What nude lip color are u wearing
Hi sister! Nice turban. I will try those tips . Love from Martinique
Thank you 😊 Julie! 😘
Just subscribed. Love your energy. Where did you get the earrings from?
I'm definitely high porosity . My hair dries so quickly
Wonderful information, thank you for sharing. This will be a game changer I have low porosity hair but you gave helpful tips for both. 👍🏽👏🏽🙏🏽
Amen🙏...I love your pronunciation of "pH"
How do you check the pH of a product?
AMEN!! 🤭🤭🤭 That pH gem though!! 😯
What a brilliant video thank you so much. I'll take this all on board
Too much protein can cause dryness and breakage as well. I encountered this. I'm lessening protein and focusing on products that offers more moisture.
💯💯
This video is very informative. Keep up the good work.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Great content and I loved that you backed up everything scientifically 🖤... Does anyone know of any product examples that sit on each side of the pH scale?
High ph: baking Soda: 8/9 , relaxer: 10-12 ,
Low ph: acv: 3-4 , aloe vera:4 , lemon juice: 2 , most conditioner
Don't forget to use a ph skin neutral shampoo!
Love all your videos!
Well said..I love ur head scarf.
Thank you! My hair was a mess lol... I'm putting some braids in tomorrow.
Oh girlllll i LOVE YOU and you're HAIR and i LOVE and adore curly proverbz although i don't agree with the porosity thing i LOVE that you and her do a lot of herbal so thanks for keeping it natural
Thank you so much!! Farida is my sister from another mother xx
Where on the product label does it tell u the ph of the product Or how can u test products ph?
Wow, how did I miss this upload?? Anyway, another great video Leïla! 💕
Lovin the look. What lip are you wearing?
I use acv rinse, 1 ounce of acv to 8 ounces of water
Love your wrap and earrings
GIRLFRIENDS IS COMING BACK????????? 💃🏿 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
YES!!!!!!
can you please make a monthly hair regimen? protein treatments, mask, shampoo etc please
The issue with that is, It wont work for everyone and the hair's needs constantly because it's effect by internal factors too.
Laila Washington- FusionofCultures I understand. it’s just i’m not suppose to use protein treatments too often. shampoos are stripping etc. just needed a do and don’t and tweak from there.
Looking beautiful as always.
Wow, thank you! Defo didn't feel it so I appreciate this 😘
Thank you!! So helpful!!! Hope you got some better coin now...
Always on point ❤️
Thank you 🙌
So, I don’t think all products show the ph, should I just be testing them with strips?
Thank can tedious although I know some people do it. A lot of products will usually say if they're ph balanced.
How/where do you check ph numbers??
This video came out at the right time. I’m about to take my braids out.
Question, so regarding a good ph balance product, after ive washed my hair and then moisturized my hair, my next day hair should not be crunchy or it's the ph of my hair products😮😮😮😮😮? Please tell me because I'm ALWAYS crunchy on a daily next day both a wash and after a daily moisturizing session.
Did you ever list the products that are good for HP hair? If so can you link it?
Your explanations are all over the place sounds like your explaining one thing over but in a different way.. my daughter hair is long but since its high porosity.. I just need products that will keep her hair motorised n not sucking up all the products
😒
Can you tell me if i have low or high porosity hair,,, every night i moisture and oil my hair, wake up in the morning my hair is dry as if i never moisture or oil my scalp. Btw im natural. Please help me
