also at 5:20 you said henna is very drying for you so you added more things to make it moisturizing but you added bentonite clay and charcoal two of some of the most drying ingredients in formulations, they are used to draw out oil?
Neh-Bih Sangbong omg I saw you in a previous video before i came here and seeing your comment again feels familiar and gives me comfort Lol i love your commentaries btw, and same i love being African and i wouldn't have it any other way^^
I believe that Chebe is effective, but I don’t see how it can be better than henna bcuz the Chebe has to be left in the hair and when it’s removed the hair is vulnerable to breakage again, so it only protects the hair from the outside. And henna penetrates the hair shaft and reforms the hair from the inside, and it only has to be left on the hair for a short time. So the henna has to be better.
Great comparison video 👌🏾💕 I’m actually from the Ovahimba tribe and the red clay is called (Otjize). The clay can also be applied on the body as sun block( sunscreen) and for the hair it mainly serves as a strengthening agent because of the dry and sunny climate in the north-western part of Namibia.
I mix my henna with coconut milk. this will prevent drying and the hair will feel much softer. don't let the henna sit. use it right away and keep it in for an hour. put your hair in braids and once your ready to remove it will have a natural wavy pattern. trust me this works! ☺
You know I'm African (Zambian), so I had to hop on the Chebe powder bandwagon to see if it's legit. People from my tribe use MUSILA clay with Castor Oil. I wrote a blog post talking about ingredients, application, degree of messiness and all: wp.me/p5eAiB-fX I will continue using Chebe regularly and keep you posted on how I really feel. 😘
@@chatterboxneptune5810 hey babe ☺️ I basically just used rice water as a leave in for 20 days. Washed my hair on day 10 and day 20 and saw great results and growth. I have more info and results on my channel 💛
Adding amla is supposed to keep henna from loosening curls. It’s very beneficial for hair growth as well. Also adding a bit of aloe powder will make henna have a much smoother texture that will glide on your hair and added moisture. I’m team henna because I like to cover my gray with indigo and henna.
Helpful video! I was wondering what Chebe was. I've been reading about it. I've used henna for years without any loosening of my 4a/4b hair. I love what it's done to my hair both health-wise and color-wise. My hair is waist-length and I attribute a lot of my growth to my routine, which includes monthly henna use.
Hi sis! Can you tell me what henna you used? I always thought Henna is supposed to make your hair thicker and darker, but it seems Henna makes Lulu’s hair “looser”. I have the length and I’m looking for more thickness. I know I’m all over the place, lol. So whatever info you have please share💕
@@abigailyayrafiagbe8401 if you do a full henna treatment then once a month to once every couple of months. If you are doing a henna gloss then you can do that every week or every two weeks. Always do a moisturising deep condition after a full henna mask or gloss. I do glosses every week and a full henna mask every 3 months. Add amla powder to the henna which stops any curl loosening and is also good for the hair. Hope this helps. 😊
I've used Henna before. It smelled so much like Matcha Tea. I use Chebe as well. It smells like (dont laugh) BBQ sauce and a dirty herb. Lol They both improved strength to my hair. Softness as well. That's my experience have a nice day ladies
I've been doing the henna gloss. I mix aloe vera gel and powder, some oils and a deep conditioner. And I've used it about 4 times and I like that my extremely tight coils are loosening. Which is what I wanted anyway. It also made my hair and ends feel so much softer and I love it. The only color change I've noticed in my hair is my grays are brownish and that's it so far. I've also noticed less shedding. But yes application is very messy and it just falls anywhere. I want to try the chebe one day.
Henna has very strong condition and hair renewing properties. Its worth the wait. I'm going to try Chebe and see if it promotes hair growth like I've heard it can.
AC McGowan Yes, Henna is good. I just wanted something that I could use regularly without compromising my texture. Also, I might color my hair in the future and Henna can affect the results.
I use Henna once a month. Love it and it manages my grays. I mix my henna w/apple cider vinegar and green tea to release the dye. The next day, I add in oils to keep it soft and moisturized. My henna is not so loose that it drips and flys everywhere. Also, it your hair was greasy, you should have used a clarifying shampoo. It cuts thru the grease beautifully.
I didn't want to clarify because Henna dries me out. My henna doesn't drip because I use it overnight, but I do get the occasional clump that flies off during application. I'm clumsy like that.
Facts: you can apply henna to the hair without waiting for the dye to release and still get its conditioning benefits...it's not the color that produces the conditioning properties. You can research this. Also, many people don't experience the curl loosening effect with henna.
I know, but I like following the directions. Nobody stated that the color produces conditioning properties. All I said was it helps me detangle my hair. Also, frequency of use may affect curl loosening, so it's appropriate for me to give this info for those who may or may not want to loosen their strands.
@@Nikki528 2 years later no loosening but more defined. And yes there can be a color change. I just mix it with amla powder and brahmi and aritha so that it's dark brown not red

Thanks so much for this thorough video 😊 new to both chebe and henna, I plan on using Chebe first, preferably the mask, having surgery I believe this the best hair treatment while in rehab. Thanks again. PS LOVE YOUR SMILE AND YOUR ENTIRE DISPLAY...CONGRATS O. THE AWARD😀 Noticed on the shelf.
I’m Namibian so Henna is what I grew up on. Lol I love the plant smell from henna idk why, but I use two deep treatments/alma oil/ and honey in my henna. Yeah forsure can’t dye my hair lol because of all the years I’ve used it. I haven’t experienced loosen curls though.
thank you for the compare. i have used henna for years with no loosening of curl, it is cheaper and more accessible for me at the moment. I would like to try the chebe though, it sounds really nice, as i am trying minimize my use of conventional products and use more raw ingredients to reduce toiletries and clutter in my home. Blessings!
New subbie. Love the entire video. You did put a lot of work into it. I've never used either products, even though I've been thinking about it. Thanks to you, I'll definitely be trying them.
I use both chebe powder and henna. I recently discovered chebe hair paste and I use it when I'm wearing box braids..I love it. I henna my hair overnight one a month and wear my hair in mostly protective styles and my hair is growing out nicely with this method.
Great review! I have chebe powder but I haven't tried it. I've been doing henna glosses once a month for several months and I have notified a very subtle color change, but no noticeable loosening of my curl pattern, perhaps because a henna gloss is not as strong as a full on henna treatment. Did you cleanse your hair before you applied the chebe mask? I like the idea of cowashing after a chebe treatment. I have fine hair and I'm concerned about buildup that could be caused by leaving too much of the product in my hair.
Yes yes yes. Thank you sooooooo much for this comparison. I've been wanting to try out Chebe. Just recently started using henna, got the same package like yours and I'm loving it. Gonna give Chebe a try.
@@PureEstrogen just I'm not sure if you learn this or not but just some info if you're having issues with curl pattern loosening with henna then you need to add two to three tablespoons of amla powder with your henna treatments and you won't have a curl loosening issue. To combat the dryness that you spoke of with Hannah you need to add one teaspoon and actually the rule is the amount of 100% whole leaf organic powder that you add to your henna treatment would be 5% of the total amount of henna or if you mix it with a couple of other powders you want 5% of that amount of aloe vera powder. For example a hundred grams I know for like a pack of henna the way it usually comes when purchased from the place I get it and it's all organic and really nice finally sifted I just need one teaspoon. it's a total game changers for as moisture you won't have that dryness. One more thing you can also do a amla treatment by adding at least three to four tablespoons if you had a little more depending on how much deep conditioner using mix them together apply it to your hair leave it on no more than 2 hours I just leave mine on an hour and rinse it out and not only do you have nice moisturize hair and get the benefits of amla and your curls pop right back into place . xoxo
Thank you for all the tips. I have natural hair that have never been permed. It’s extremely corse and difficult to comb out once water is applied. I look forward to trying the Chebe treatment. I’m actually excited to start process. Thanks again!
Just a few questions: You said you are going to show us something cool after the Chebe application. And did you apply the paste Chebe on top of the Chebe mix you made and kept in for 2/days? Thanks
the cool thing is the fact that you don't have to mix your own Chebe. You can buy it pre-mixed and that's what the paste is. I did apply the paste over my mix just to show you what it looks like. You don't need to do this.You only need one.
Thank you, I use henna regularly I say about every 2 or 3 months, when I don't want to dye or dryness to be so strong, I add lots of oil and a rinse out conditioner to it and I don't let it sit as long as I normally would, then I do a deep condition after and does my hair fine no complaints. I would like to try the Chebe, where did you purchase yours?
Thank you Pure Estrogen your videos very health full. Wondering if I can use the combination of the both on my locked dreads? Also, im going gray rapidly and wonder if it's healthy to wash frequently???
Lovely video and gorgeous hair! No need to wait for dye release with henna if you're only using it for the conditioning/strengthening effects! But if you did, you could make a massive batch and then freeze them in portions. Make it thick so you can use hot water to defrost it. :-)
coreenamusic They are both African... Check out India's history, they only got lighter thanks to Arab invasion and then again with European colonization. To this day there are still more black skinned Indians than light. Just saying. Seems to me that both groups used what was growing near them and worked.
I’m Zambian and part Tonga and part Toka Leya and part Ndebele🤣 I will ask my mom about Musili. My aunt used to put something in her hair and it was past her shoulders so I wonder if that was it. I’m so proud of you and will let my daughters know to subscribe to your channel as well! Keep up the awesome work!
Where can I find this in it's natural form, my fear is once it gets to the United States people will start putting foreign chemicals in it as they always do.
Hennah grows in Africa as well. We live here in Sudan and we use it for dyeing our hands and feet in addition to using it for hair. Hennah is used for natural healing for different ailments.
I love, love, love this video! So thorough and informative! Very beautifully done, thank you for sharing! Also, I love your gator clips, if you don't mind, where did you get them to buy please? Thanks!
Very comprehensive. I ❤ it!! My hair is hi-po so as far as drying goes, sounds like chebe will be best for regular treatments and the henna mix for occasional grey coverage.
I want to see my hair in its natural Black Queen state my hair is relaxed and armpit length. I will not do a big chop but in due time i WILL have hair like that. Beautiful👑🏆!
Hi, you might not have! There's a woman called 'Valley fontaine'. Hope I spelt her name right and she literally grew out her relaxed hair with a chop and all strands intact. So it is poss!
Great video thank you. So now I need to remove myself from your closet, because I'm still in there rocking your lovely shoe collection! Don't kick me out just yet, I'm going soon trust me LOL. I just don't have the patience for Henna, but love the benefits. So I use it, and a few other Ayurvedic herbs, and oils to infuse and create a hair growth oil instead. This works not only in hair health, but raving hair growth as well.
Thanks for the video! I did not know Chebe powder, I only use henna. I mix my henna with coconut milk so it's not drying for my hair and I don't wait for the dye to release. I use to cowash after my henna treatment but shampoo is better to remove the little henna "grains" from my hair lol. I do my henna treatment once a month because it strengthens my fine hair, covers my grays and my natural hair color that I don't like (ashy brown 😕) I can't really tell if my hair texture is looser because I've been doing this for so long 😮
Thanks so much for this comment Alison - I have grays and need coverage for that. I've been using Soft Sheen colour and have been thinking of henna but not taken the plunge. Will definitely be trying!
I will say, I have used Chebe and got wonderful results pertaining to moisturizination, length retention, less hair shedding. I only have 1 issue. Scalp itching. I get the itching even though I do not put Chebe on my scalp. I've even gone as far as making a Chebe oil and straining it of the powder and mixing it with a Shea butter mix. Hair loves it, scalp does not. No dandruff, no scalp inflammation. Just itching. I stopped using Chebe for now and I'm using a Fenugreek oil I make in my hair. I have more Chebe but i will use it when my hair grows longer and i will put it only on the tips. I love the way Chebe affects my hair. I will give Henna a shot because of you. Thanks for your informative share
Great video, very informative. I mix my chebe into my ayurvedic hair growth oil mix and let all of the items marinate for 2-3 weeks and then use this batch of oil on wash day to seal repeat ever 2 weeks. I've noticed a big difference in the softness of my hair and density. TFS
Very informative! I have been using henna for years (3/yr) and I niw have an explanation of why my hair has been loosening its curls! You are so right, my different hair types are definitely changing at different rates. Thank you so much. I love how my hair feels after a henna treatment, but I will have to try chebe one day. Stay blessed.
vineflow You're welcome. Different hair types will stun you with how unique they are. Definitely continue Henna if it's working well and Chebe is worth a try when you're ready.
Thanks for the informative video. Can you please explain why you mixed your own chebe and then used the chebe paste on top of that? Also, did you leave the first round of chebe in your hair for 2-3 days? Thank you!
Hi Lulu. I always wondered where you're from and my wild guess was Zimbabwe or Namibia. But defo kinda knew below the equator. Heeey there 😙😙😙 I'm from Gabon and studying in Cape Town.
Thankyou for making this video. I want to try chebe powder but will I have to leave it in my hair to help it retain length? How does using chebe affect how your hairstyles turn out?
You only need about 4 hours with Chebe to see the benefits. I'm going to do another video hopefully before the end of the year. It helps with styling because it makes my hair feel soft and my hair is easy to detangle and style when it's super soft after washing. My styles usually turn out better and more defined.
I received my Chebe on December 1st. It didn't take long for delivery. I ordered the Chebe Castor Oil, Chebe Ostrich Oil, and the Chebe Curl Defining Custard Cream. I only ordered the 4oz because I just wanted to try it. Saturday was wash day, I did my normal wash day routine and followed up with the Chebe. Tip one; a little of the Chebe Castor Oil goes a long way. I didn't use the Chebe Ostrich Oil but I did follow up with the Chebe Curl Defining Custard Cream. After that, I put my hair in twist. This morning my hair is dry and my hair is soft, shiny and no frizz. So far so good.
Did you try the paste with cow fat and ostrich oil? It is simply amazing. The other chebe products are great too but my hair has been transformed by the chebe paste. www.chebeusa.com are the only company that carry it
Anyone know how Chebe works? Henna is known to fill in the crevices of hair and to be strengthening. How does Chebe work and what's the difference between Chebe and Casia? Thanks for the post.

It happens to me too. If I know my hair is too oily, I just put a plastic bag over it at night.
Maybe a plastic pillow case with a satin one over that?
I just don’t sleep with it. I’ll put it like Sunday morning and leave it for like 6 hours then wash
Put a towel on your pillow case to absorb the oil.

Thanks. I didn't cleanse before the mask because I washed my hair 3 days prior. Cowashing after is definitely a must.
Love the GLAM back drop:)
Thank you. 😊
OH MY..I'm so excited..to watch the video..I'm going to order the chebe already mix..thank you for sharing. blessings to you and the family always 😲
Thanks for wacthing. God bless! 😘
I tried henna treatments, but I didn't notice a difference so I used coffee masks which work wonders. I want to try the chebe.
Yes yes yes. Thank you sooooooo much for this comparison. I've been wanting to try out Chebe. Just recently started using henna, got the same package like yours and I'm loving it.
Gonna give Chebe a try.
Nice. I actually just started doing Henna treatments again, then I stumbled on Chebe. lol.
Trinity_ NubianQueen pls where did u get ur am from Nigeria
@@PureEstrogen just I'm not sure if you learn this or not but just some info if you're having issues with curl pattern loosening with henna then you need to add two to three tablespoons of amla powder with your henna treatments and you won't have a curl loosening issue. To combat the dryness that you spoke of with Hannah you need to add one teaspoon and actually the rule is the amount of 100% whole leaf organic powder that you add to your henna treatment would be 5% of the total amount of henna or if you mix it with a couple of other powders you want 5% of that amount of aloe vera powder. For example a hundred grams I know for like a pack of henna the way it usually comes when purchased from the place I get it and it's all organic and really nice finally sifted I just need one teaspoon. it's a total game changers for as moisture you won't have that dryness. One more thing you can also do a amla treatment by adding at least three to four tablespoons if you had a little more depending on how much deep conditioner using mix them together apply it to your hair leave it on no more than 2 hours I just leave mine on an hour and rinse it out and not only do you have nice moisturize hair and get the benefits of amla and your curls pop right back into place . xoxo
@@sassyrarebreed9914 I have heard of it, but I never used the two together. Thanks for sharing.
Can i use Henna without adding anything to it
I have only just discovered Chebe. I loved this, very informative.
MFL Teacher Kerry A K Francis Thank you 😊
You’re so gorgeous 😍 thanks this video, lots of great info specially about the henna.
Thanks so much.
You're welcome darling.
Thank you for all the tips. I have natural hair that have never been permed. It’s extremely corse and difficult to comb out once water is applied. I look forward to trying the Chebe treatment. I’m actually excited to start process.
Thanks again!
You're welcome. Best wishes on your hair journey.
OMG!!!!! OMG!!!!!! OMG!!!!! I can’t believe you’re Zambian ...... yahhhhhhhhssssss honey!!! 🙌🏾
Prudence L. Hey! 🤗 There are more of us. Not many, but we're here. 😊
while good one..also from Zambia
Thank you for the information. I will definitely will be trying chebe.
amethyst smith You're welcome. It's worth a try.
okay, what's the results on your hair from them both ,are they good treatments for the hair.
Just a few questions: You said you are going to show us something cool after the Chebe application. And did you apply the paste Chebe on top of the Chebe mix you made and kept in for 2/days?
Thanks
the cool thing is the fact that you don't have to mix your own Chebe. You can buy it pre-mixed and that's what the paste is. I did apply the paste over my mix just to show you what it looks like. You don't need to do this.You only need one.
here is the paste.

Thank you, I use henna regularly I say about every 2 or 3 months, when I don't want to dye or dryness to be so strong, I add lots of oil and a rinse out conditioner to it and I don't let it sit as long as I normally would, then I do a deep condition after and does my hair fine no complaints. I would like to try the Chebe, where did you purchase yours?
Nice. I use mine every 4 months or so. I got my Chebe from Chebe USA. The link is in the description.
Thank you Pure Estrogen your videos very health full. Wondering if I can use the combination of the both on my locked dreads? Also, im going gray rapidly and wonder if it's healthy to wash frequently???
Great video! Thumbed up.
Thanks so much.
Lovely video and gorgeous hair!
No need to wait for dye release with henna if you're only using it for the conditioning/strengthening effects! But if you did, you could make a massive batch and then freeze them in portions. Make it thick so you can use hot water to defrost it. :-)
PackofDiscos I've never thought to use hot water. I usually just stick it in the fridge to defrost the day before use. Thanks for the tips. 😊
Yay! I'm secretly hoping the African Treatment (Chebe) vs Asian Treatment (Henna) Wins!
It won!
coreenamusic They are both African... Check out India's history, they only got lighter thanks to Arab invasion and then again with European colonization. To this day there are still more black skinned Indians than light. Just saying. Seems to me that both groups used what was growing near them and worked.
It grows in Africa too if I remember correctly
Chalsey Wilder It does.
Thought henna came from Indians
Thank you thank you for this video. I want to try both henna and chebe. I will let you know how it turned out.
lulu, I love your hairstyle!! those curls are poppin! (first time watching your channel so I apologize if I have your name wrong)
Jennieke Latimore Lulu is correct. Thanks so much.
I love nupur henna! I use it monthly
Nice. You have pretty hair. 😍
@Pure Estrogen I was watching you video and my 3yr old daughter said you very pretty lol ❤️
Aww, tell her I said thank you. ❤️
I love the texture of your green cream in powders,On the other hand it is what powders her(it) black whom you add?
I’m Zambian and part Tonga and part Toka Leya and part Ndebele🤣 I will ask my mom about Musili. My aunt used to put something in her hair and it was past her shoulders so I wonder if that was it. I’m so proud of you and will let my daughters know to subscribe to your channel as well! Keep up the awesome work!
Cool. I have Ndebele ancestry as well. It's Musila...at least that's what my mom said. Thank you!
I sift the henna powder before doing in the mixture. That way i get out the big clumps right away.
Adila Aday Smart!
Where can I find this in it's natural form, my fear is once it gets to the United States people will start putting foreign chemicals in it as they always do.
Chebe USA sources their Chebe from Africa. They sell both in Africa and the United States.
@@PureEstrogen thank you so much
Hennah grows in Africa as well. We live here in Sudan and we use it for dyeing our hands and feet in addition to using it for hair. Hennah is used for natural healing for different ailments.
Awesome and informative video. Thank you. You're awesome!
Thanks so much!
I love, love, love this video! So thorough and informative! Very beautifully done, thank you for sharing! Also, I love your gator clips, if you don't mind, where did you get them to buy please? Thanks!
Thanks so much. I got them on Ebay: go.magik.ly/ml/7vl1/
Pure Estrogen thank you so much!!
Nice video
Thank you.
Thanks for sharing very helpful going to try cheba powder
god is love You're welcome. God bless.
Very comprehensive. I ❤ it!! My hair is hi-po so as far as drying goes, sounds like chebe will be best for regular treatments and the henna mix for occasional grey coverage.
Brownie8986 Yup. We might be hair twins. Mine is the same and this is what I'm doing. Chebe regularly and Henna every 3 months.
Hey luv, do you ever use shampoo or only do you only co-wash?
I use both.
I want to see my hair in its natural Black Queen state my hair is relaxed and armpit length. I will not do a big chop but in due time i WILL have hair like that. Beautiful👑🏆!
Ms. Woodard It will grow before you know it. 😊
Hi, you might not have! There's a woman called 'Valley fontaine'. Hope I spelt her name right and she literally grew out her relaxed hair with a chop and all strands intact. So it is poss!
Melanin Lover if
Bev Reid
If your hair is armpit length now, why do you say you will have hair like that? Her hair is not longer than armpit length. Please explain.
Will this work on relaxed hair as well?
Can chebe be used on colored hair
Great video thank you. So now I need to remove myself from your closet, because I'm still in there rocking your lovely shoe collection! Don't kick me out just yet, I'm going soon trust me LOL. I just don't have the patience for Henna, but love the benefits. So I use it, and a few other Ayurvedic herbs, and oils to infuse and create a hair growth oil instead. This works not only in hair health, but raving hair growth as well.
Vatika is a bad ass product. Highly recommend using especially after the big chop.
Yeah, it's great.
The shoes in the back ground are everything
Thanks so much!
Love your channel ❤❤ from Zambia ❤❤
Thank you so much!! ❤🇿🇲❤
Thanks for the video! I did not know Chebe powder, I only use henna. I mix my henna with coconut milk so it's not drying for my hair and I don't wait for the dye to release. I use to cowash after my henna treatment but shampoo is better to remove the little henna "grains" from my hair lol. I do my henna treatment once a month because it strengthens my fine hair, covers my grays and my natural hair color that I don't like (ashy brown 😕) I can't really tell if my hair texture is looser because I've been doing this for so long 😮
you can watch Miss Sahel's video about Chebe - Chebe is amazing for people with natural hair gals:) I have used it and my hair has been transformed!
Nice routine. I think I'll try coconut milk in the future. Thanks.
Thanks so much for this comment Alison - I have grays and need coverage for that. I've been using Soft Sheen colour and have been thinking of henna but not taken the plunge. Will definitely be trying!
have you grate it with a pesto and morter to make it finer
Nah...the way my laziness is set up... 😂😂😂
I will say, I have used Chebe and got wonderful results pertaining to moisturizination, length retention, less hair shedding. I only have 1 issue. Scalp itching. I get the itching even though I do not put Chebe on my scalp. I've even gone as far as making a Chebe oil and straining it of the powder and mixing it with a Shea butter mix. Hair loves it, scalp does not. No dandruff, no scalp inflammation. Just itching. I stopped using Chebe for now and I'm using a Fenugreek oil I make in my hair. I have more Chebe but i will use it when my hair grows longer and i will put it only on the tips. I love the way Chebe affects my hair. I will give Henna a shot because of you. Thanks for your informative share
Yeah, Chebe will itch the scalp. I avoid putting it there. Thanks for stopping by and sharing your experience with us.
Great video, very informative. I mix my chebe into my ayurvedic hair growth oil mix and let all of the items marinate for 2-3 weeks and then use this batch of oil on wash day to seal repeat ever 2 weeks. I've noticed a big difference in the softness of my hair and density. TFS
Wait a minute. We're in 2017 and your routine is in 3017. Let me take notes! Thanks.
Are you saying that you leave the mixture in your hair for 2 weeks then you wash it out ??
Try the coconut milk an oil with your henna an you’ll love the henna
I will, thank you. 😊
Sweet J did you use just regular coconut milk with henna
sabrina watts you're supposed to. From what I've seen
Vatika is cocconut mixt with some others oils
looks good
My locs are waist length
can be used on my natural tresses
You are sooooo gorgeous omg it makes no sense to be so pretty 😍😍😍
Thank you so much!
Love the heels
Thank you so much I loved your knowledge on this and I would totally buy your recommended mixture if you sold it!
I won't be mixing anything soon, but thank you!
I could not keep my eyes off your shoes 😍
Kee pee lol. ❤
😆😆😆
Very informative! I have been using henna for years (3/yr) and I niw have an explanation of why my hair has been loosening its curls! You are so right, my different hair types are definitely changing at different rates. Thank you so much. I love how my hair feels after a henna treatment, but I will have to try chebe one day. Stay blessed.
vineflow You're welcome. Different hair types will stun you with how unique they are. Definitely continue Henna if it's working well and Chebe is worth a try when you're ready.
Thanks. I need to get some from my hair.
Just don't get it from my stash. 😂😂😂
You speak very well. Thk you posting.
Is the CHEBE powder the original blend, as made in Chad?
Nice video!
Miss S.D. Rosenbloom Yes, it's the original. Thanks.
No
Can you combine chebe and henna? I was thinking of extracting the oil from my henna and just adding that along with coconut oil to my chebe.
Mohana the Dancer You can. I can do a video on it next month if you want.
Pure Estrogen that'd be great!
I wonder why is Chebe powder so expensive? I just purchased 50 grams but want to support black business owners.
Thanks for the informative video. Can you please explain why you mixed your own chebe and then used the chebe paste on top of that? Also, did you leave the first round of chebe in your hair for 2-3 days? Thank you!
I did that just to demonstrate your potions. You can do it either way. There is no added benefit. I left my first round for 2 days.
Thanks. I will most definitely use.
You're welcome.
Hi Lulu. I always wondered where you're from and my wild guess was Zimbabwe or Namibia. But defo kinda knew below the equator. Heeey there 😙😙😙 I'm from Gabon and studying in Cape Town.
You were really close. Heeey 👋🏾👋🏾😘
Selena Eunice bonjour Gabonaise...moi je suis a londres!
Flore Edith Coucou ma Cherie. Ah super !!! Tu y fais quoi ?
Selena Eunice ma chere je bosse...mais franchement je veux rentrer...apres 2 decennies ..fatiguee!!!
She’s Nigerian
Thankyou for making this video. I want to try chebe powder but will I have to leave it in my hair to help it retain length? How does using chebe affect how your hairstyles turn out?
You only need about 4 hours with Chebe to see the benefits. I'm going to do another video hopefully before the end of the year. It helps with styling because it makes my hair feel soft and my hair is easy to detangle and style when it's super soft after washing. My styles usually turn out better and more defined.
WHERE CAN I BUY THIS PRODUCT ONLINE THE CHEBE POWDER
The Chebe paste you wash out. When you use Chebe and oil you leave it in?
I received my Chebe on December 1st. It didn't take long for delivery. I ordered the Chebe Castor Oil, Chebe Ostrich Oil, and the Chebe Curl Defining Custard Cream. I only ordered the 4oz because I just wanted to try it. Saturday was wash day, I did my normal wash day routine and followed up with the Chebe. Tip one; a little of the Chebe Castor Oil goes a long way. I didn't use the Chebe Ostrich Oil but I did follow up with the Chebe Curl Defining Custard Cream. After that, I put my hair in twist. This morning my hair is dry and my hair is soft, shiny and no frizz. So far so good.
Did you try the paste with cow fat and ostrich oil? It is simply amazing. The other chebe products are great too but my hair has been transformed by the chebe paste. www.chebeusa.com are the only company that carry it
Pendo S I have it but have not tried it yet. I will though.
Nice. Castor oil is amazing though.
How is your hair so far?
Anyone know how Chebe works? Henna is known to fill in the crevices of hair and to be strengthening. How does Chebe work and what's the difference between Chebe and Casia? Thanks for the post.
L Scott It feels like a deep conditioning hair mask on my hair. I've never used Cassia, so I can't compare the two.
I’ll use it for mine too 😁my hair is really thick and plentiful 🥰 same length as this your hair on this video.
Awesome. I hope it works well for you.
