This is the most informative curly hair video I’ve seen on protein treatments for curly hair!
A million likes for the puppy!
I had grandkids by all weekend, so Monday I told hubby I had the flu and stayed in bed & watched Janelle videos all day and wow did my wavy hair turn our curly today! I stopped "raking thru"my hair, great tip!! Thanks!!
SOME Common Ingredients/Keywords to look for Proteins in ingredient lists:
Hydrolyzed, Keratin, Protein, Soy, Oat, Quinoa, Rice Gelatin, Collagen, Amino Acids, Silk Protein, Wheat Protein, Vegetable Protein
I needed that, cheers!!!
Honey, aloe, milk, yogurt, eggs, silk, nuts, ....... These can also be protein ingredients.
I actually looked up protein treatments, the best one is called ApHogee keratin 2 minute reconstructor (AMAZING!). I use this weekly, then every 6 weeks i use ApHogee 2 step protein treatment ( HIGHLY RECOMMEND!😍). I use a moisterising shamppo and conditioner - ausie brand, and ogx hair oil to keep the moisture and protein balance. My hair is so healthy now and have tighter curls! 🥰🥰🥰
I'm new to this, but the Woman to Woman spray doesn't mention any of the ingredients you have listed. A lot of oils though which would weigh down my fine and thin hair. Any other leave in /refresh suggestions? Can I dilute a protein/moisture deep conditioner with water and put it in a mister?
Thanks for the clearly explained test. My hair stretches sooooo crazy and I didn't know thats what that meant. I've only been curly girl a month so its a learning curve.
LOVED this video! When I bleach damaged my hair from sun-in (so dumb 🤦) my hair would stretch and stretch forever and I had no idea what to do about it. Now I know I needed protein! Your explanation was a million times helpful!
Thanks for educating me...still learning what to do with my wavy hair!
Love love love this video!!! Great example on how to measure protein vs moisture need with a strand! 💙💙💙
Thank you so much for this! You break it down so well for us beginner curlies ♥️
I didn't know what is going on with my hair. Thank you for saving my hair... Keep it up please. And you are sweet
Thank you! The learning curve seems steep some days but I got one lovely, fat, honest curl yesterday. I credit you for it!
Love this! Thank you! Bringin' the curls back!
This is SO helpful! Thanks for always bringing your warm personality and clear explanations. I also appreciate seeing examples of products you like. Thanks, Jannelle!
So welcome!
I needed this video so much. I will be doing the test today. I have high porosity hair but i am transitioning so that is expected. I have been trying to understand the protein issues with hair but just haven't understood it. You explained it so well. Thank you so much.
Suuuuuuper helpful. I started with the cg method something like 3 months ago and the protein vs moisture thing always gets me. Thank you so much!
I struggle with finding a good balance between protein and moisture. This video was so helpful!
I need to find a video like this for girls with wavy hair... This was such an informative video!
You're the first person I youtube I've seen with the same hair as me! Thanks for all the help you've given me! Love the puppers!
ThankYOU for this, oh so helpful visual, now I get it!! 😊 Love your energy!
I came here because my hair stretched and bounced back, and wouldn’t break! I tried over and over, and it wouldn’t break. I thought it was a break test, and I had to figure out based on how it broke. But I think that means I am balanced! THANK YOU!
Love your personality and your knowledge of curly hair. You have taught me do much. Thanks for sharing all 🥰
This is exactly what I needed! I definitely need protein for my curly mop. Thank you so much! And you are adorable! ✌🏼️😇
This was SO HELPFUL! Thank you 💙
You have the same exact hair texture that I have. Totally following!
Thanks so much Janelle for all the information and the videos regarding maintaining the curls! It's very informative and encouraging....I have finally decided to stop ironing my hair and leave it as natural. Thanks again.... Keep doing good work like this.. very motivating 😄🤗🤗
Love your nail polish in this video!
I finally understand the stretch test!!!! Thank you!!!
Thank you! Recently I wandered how can I understand that I need to use mask. 😀 You gave me the answer! 👌🏻
Thank you for explaining this! I was wondering what all this meant!
Amazing explanation!!! I was always confused with other explanations about when I needed protein or moisture but yours was so clear and simple to understand. Thank you for this video! 💕🤗🙌🏼👏🏼
I get it now! I’m on week 2 of curly girl method and I need protein. Thank you!
I hope you do the video about the high porosity hair Bc I now finally know why my hair looks so weird and not as good as it did a year ago. I also don’t know like what are good affordable must haves for curly hair. I need to get educated. Also I love your channel it is my favorite curly hair channel!!
your puppy! oh my goodness 💜💜💜
what a great video!!! thanks so much for the help.
Awesome video! Explanes soooo much 😅 thank you for this!
Great video. This helped a lot. Thank you.
This was so helpful omg thank you
Your curls are perfect 😍
Very helpful!! I have the same hair!! Very lowP. I'm going to check this protein test! My fav products are devacurl!
Needed this video badly. No matter how many videos ive seen, I still don't really know if i have high or low porosity hair, so can't wait for that video. I kinda have stringy stretched curls in places and some that are also kinda hard and dry with breakage so... ahhh. Water also completely beads on my hair yet its color treated and dry. My hair doesnt know what it is. I'll figure it out eventually im sure x
I'm still putting that video together but if water is beading up on your hair its likely normal or low porosity. Also, does it take a long time to dry. If yes=low porosity if no=high porosity! Also, have you clarified recently? Sometimes buildup/hard water build up can act the same way!
@Sarah beyler I have the same thing with a really dry scalp
okay i have no idea how i have JUST discovered your channel after being on my curly journey for 2 years now but SHIIIITTT. i almost regret it because my wallet is about to suffer. but you make me really excited and hopeful to get my curls back!! i've yet to find a low porosity curly/wavy gal so all my videos i watch are all women with way different hair types. im low porosity and a 2b/2c wavy/curly so i've been watching your videos nonstop today lmao. thank youuuuuu and im so excited to try some of your recommended products!
Grace Brozka same here!!! My hair was blonde and the blonde is all gone and I’m still struggling with my curls. I have 2c/3a hair and my hair has not been curling and it’s been brittle and dry. I’ve just learned I have low porosity hair and I’m so glad I’ve found her!
Very well explained, thank you! :)
OMG that’s what I need I didnt know what the hell is going on with my hair thank you so much
Great video! I’m new to the CGM! But not to dog mom life lol! 😂 I also have an English bulldog and the shedding is real!
💗💗🐶🐾🥰Love the pups and the info!!
Great explanation - thanks!
he is so adorable & sweet.. he got those puppy eyes
Very helpful. Thank you!
Olaplex & DC Deep Sea Repair are my favorites for my color treated hair
I've used high protein natural yogurt as a protein treatment which worked well but much easier just using products with protein in there! I'm high porosity so my hair loves it.
I am all for DIY!
Automatic thumbs up for sweet puppies!!
This video was super useful. I have high porosity hair but i though I needed moisture, so I've been using very moisturizing products for months and now is... Weir. It is soft but it doesn't look healthy.
Hey.. love your curls!!
Couldn’t find this in one of your videos or I totally could have missed it. How do you deal with day 2 and 3 day hair? Products? Tips and tricks? Super helpful video by the way!
I DO have a refresh tutorial! It’s one of my first videos! ua-cam.com/video/R8MkDYhmn0M/v-deo.html
Very helpful...thank you.
@theotherlagirl - love this vid. Thank you!
Love your voice!
She is sooo damn good!
good job there with the video, i found the same. when i do rice water rinses it feels like its too much protein for me and leaves my hair stringy but when I use bounce curl for styling i get the best results :)
rice water rinse??
very helpful, thanks a lot!
I lovve your hair!
That helps. I have to try this next wash day lol
Thank you ! 🌷
very helpful info...i've never used protein treatments bc i got scared off when i heard some people's hair got really messed up from using Aphogee Protein Treatments...it made me feel like they were all harmful...so maybe i'll try one of the products with protein in it rather than just a straight up protein treatment...
Ur hair is so lovely and so are you 😍😍😍
ADOREABLE NAIL POLISH COLOR!!!!
Thanks!! I found out today I need protein.
I love love love your channel. I am just beginning my curly hair journey and love all your tips. Unrelated to hair but I love your nail color. Would you mind sharing what color that is and if they are the dipping powder color. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the love. I LOVE having you here. My nails are gel polish that I picked out at the salon!
Hi,
I just found your video (very helpful) but I still have a question, can hair need protein AND moisture at the same time ?
I have damaged hair because of chemical treatments, and with what you describe it seems that I need both.. Are there products that do both please ?
Thanks, really appreciate your content 😊
Wow! This is pretty much what I've been looking for. The whole protein vs moisture question! Thanks so much for covering. @shilpasojan
Loooove that nail color -- what is it?!! Is it true that thin / fine hair is more likely to need / benefit from protein?
When i used to dye/bleach my hair alot there was one time when i bleached it twice in one sitting(dont ever do that) and it was soooo mushy. But it was crunchy too, it felt like Doritos.
After 17 years of using the hot iron every week to straighten my hair, I'm now 6 months transitioning, but my hair still doesn't want to curl entirely, it's straight/wavy. I assumed that with all that heat damage I should be high porosity, but so far all the tests I've done like a hair in a bowl of water etc result low porosity. Plus my hair takes 4-5 hours to a air dry after washing. What I do know for sure is that my hair is medium-thick, it is definitely not thin, plus I've got a lot of hair, thick density. So the protein part I haven't really figured out yet. But this I do know for sure, I once a week deep condition with the Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor oil deep conditioner and my hair seems to love that. Best hair day the entire week! But then the curls don't last long, day 2 or 3 it's almost straight again. I have to admit though that when I first bought CG products, and I bought a lot, I didn't really give much thought to ingredients. Now looking at the ingredients listed, they all seem to have a lot of proteins in them and pretty high up in the list ha ha ha... I don't know if that's good or bad. But one thing I have figured out is this: I just started on a As I am gel and I've discovered that I've been scared of using too much product, since I've been experiencing product build up easily (like my hair feels stick and greasy easily) but on the other hand when I didn't use enough of this product my curls (which are more waves at the moment) wouldn't hold as long. But now when I used more of the gel I could at least get a 2nd day of wavy hair before it turns straight. Sounds a bit contradicting all doesn't it?
Cute dog by the way! Really cute
Its not easy getting to the bottom of our hair needs. I've found that when my hair is super moisturized like borderline too much it lays flatter. Also when I have too much product. But that could also be from product build up. Do you ever clarify your hair? I personally find it important to do once a month or so to ensure my hair is free of other products and essentially a clean slate.
@@JannelleOShaughnessyThank you for replying. I honestly don't strictly co-wash only, once a week I use a sulfate free shampoo. But every now and then, like once every 4-6 weeks I admit I do use a shampoo with sulfate, just to make sure. But there might be something to what you say maybe the products I use are too much or too heavy for me. I use Shea Moisture products and someone did say something like that once before to me. Hmm, I'll have to try something else to know the difference, right?
Mon Soymon I’ll bet it’s the Shea butter! Shea is so heavy, it weighs my hair down like crazy even when only using a small amount! Check out my last video on my favorite products, all are really lightweight!!! ❤️❤️❤️
@@JannelleOShaughnessy Thanks. I'm going to have a look at that. I just have to try different things, like I said in the beginning I just bought a whole bunch of products without even thinking about ingredients
I immediately liked just for the sake of that beautiful bulldog in the intro!
great video
aaawwwww your dog is sooooo sweet
Hi! just found your videos! loving them! I have a question, once in a while after using a product for a while my hair will suddenly stop liking it. For example I had a good slip with a conditioner for a while and then one day I used it and my hair became really tangled and stiff and I had to stop using it. Have you ever had this? Is this a protein overload?
Thanks!
Thank you your videos are well explained in a way I understand my hair has never felt better thank 🌻🙏
Ohhh perfect❤
Name him noodle 😍
All those mentioned hair sensations are so unfamiliar to me I don't even know what to look/touch for... maybe because English isn't my first language. I guess I'm just gonna go by the instinct and visual effects.
This made a huge difference!! #jannellesgotmycurls
Nice video. Would flaxseed gel work as a protein treatment?
I really can't stop looking at your eyes their so beautiful
THANK YOU!!!
Have you ever heard of L.U.S. curl products. I just bought them trying to repair my hair. They helped a little bit but ifs still struggling. Just wondering what your thoughts are on the product. I think my hair might need protien. So glad to have found your channel.
How can you tell if a product has a small, medium, or large amount of protein? I’d love to see a video not just on your favorite stylers that contain protein but maybe what ingredients to look out for when looking for products with a lot of protein - or at times maybe when you’re trying to avoid protein just what ingredients to keep an eye on. Loved this video!! I’ve been learning lately that my hair is really in need of protein and not sure if it’s because I’ve already used coconut oil and it’s just overly moisturized so your video came at the perfect time for me. Loved it!
Nicole Sweiss all you need to do is see where on the ingredients list the protein is. If it's in the first few lines, it's high in protein, if it's in the middle of the list, it's medium. Any lower than that, it's relatively low.
Livi nailed it! Where they are located on the ingredient list and also if there is more than one protein listed is the best guide!
Jannelle O'Shaughnessy Engels I didn't even think about more than 1 protein being listed, good point!
Really helpful video! Love your pup(s) being included too :) xo Oh, and meant to ask if you've ever tried rice water?
I have not. I avoid my kitchen at most costs haha but one of these days i'll make it!
thanks
Omg i was having a hard time figuring out my porosity thanks so much @curlygirlperez
nails and curls slayyy
This has nothing to do with hair but what nail Polish are you wearing on this video? I love the colour. X
I love your hair. i had curls like that when i was twelve, and now my hair is barely wavy. just kinda looks like a bad case of bedhead. :(
Mine too
If your interested in figuring out your curl pattern you should research and try out the curly girl method. I'm shocked only a month and a week in and my curls have sprung up so much. I literally cant wait to see how much curlier my hair will become. I thought I had frizzy wavey curls my whole life, meanwhile I'm now sporting a head full of ringlets. It's hard for curls to clump and appear in your hair when we are using harsh shampoos, conditioners and products. They just coat our hair weigh it down and cause curls to turn to friz. Also heat and curls dont mix flat irons blow drying and over manipulating the hair can also cause you to loose curl pattern. Anyways I hope this helps. You might be sitting right now with the hair of your dreams and not even know it.
@@rachellep2581 lol, I've actually been on the curly girl method for several months now. I think I started about a month or so after I posted this. My hair gets really curly now and I don't use any heat styling unless absolutely necessary (and in that case, I use heat protectant). It's really great! :)
@@suzylove6502 yay!, im so happy to hear this. I had a feeling you were curly lol. Also their are allot of rules with the CGM as you know. I wanted to mention that if your scalp gets itchy or doesnt feel clean. Then I recommend you using a sulfate shampoo once a month and follow with a deep conditioner. I am a hairstylist and the only thing I see wrong with the CGM is that hair flurishes while scalp goes to hell with build up. Our scalp is getting too much oil, product and moisture. This in end causes blocked hair follicules that equal hair loss 😱. In my experience my scalp went crazy third week in. I tried vinegar rinse and etc nothing natural worked. I feel allot of people are putting up with scalp issues because their hair looks good and they dont want to break any rules. However a unhealthy scalp equals unhealthy hair. In end it is so uncomfortable is itchy and has bumps. This is just the beginning of a bad thing and it will effect your hair and how it looks with time. I Hope this helps I was really hesitant to use sulfate again then I remembered everything I was taught about scalp health in school. I washed with it and instantly felt better, I had no itch. Also those weird sore bumps dried and disappeared so fast. I havent had scalp problems scense thankfully 🙌🏼😊
You might know all of this. I just wanted to put it out there because I have been reading about scalp problems everywhere with the CGM. I dont want people to get discouraged or the wrong ideas and give up on their curly health lol it's all about balance🤗
Thank you it’s so hard to tell what you hair needs when you are starting out or without a professional
Thank you useful content. Now could you help with dry frizzy hormonal hair and adding just moisture no protein!? X
I don’t have curly hair, but I have very fine apparently low porosity hair. I can NEVER keep a curl long. I use heat once a month. My hair has no volume and very straight. I’m trying to grow it waist length. Several questions: 1. Is rice water good for my hair? 2. What can u use to thicken it up? 3. How often should I deep condition?
Sooooo pretty
thank you so much for dumbing it down 😂😂
thank you sooo much I think I finally know it lmao. Mine stretches a bit then snaps, so I think I need protein? I had extreme protein overload 3 years ago due to leaving an extreme protein treatment on my hair overnight and since then I stopped using protein I was too scared to even use 1 product with protein in it. I only used moisture on my hair and it grew so long and healthy (it was down to my butt) but last year I got a balayage at the salon and since then my hair got so damaged it got thin on the ends, feels very dry even though I deep condition every wash, It broke off and my hair just became shorter and shorter because it was breaking, now the front pieces are collar bone length. I guess I'm going to try a protein treatment, I'm really scared after the protein overload but it's been 3 years and after the bleaching and heat styling I think my hair needs it.
We've now talked protein... What should we cover next?!
Hmm...cutting bangs and/or layers?
ALso, I just ordered the W2W leave-in! :)
Jannelle O'Shaughnessy Engels FRIZZ!!
What to use if you need moisture instead of protein?
