    I love how open u are to everyone's differences. Because I was pressured not to wash my hair unless its been two weeks or longer when I first went natural. Bruh .... It was so itchy and fizzy. my hair does better when I wash every 3 days if I have time or 1 time a week. Hot oil treatments saved my life ❤❤

      Breona a lot don’t know how much pressure we have to face when it comes to our body. I always say listen to yourself and do whatever is right for you. Our hair is naturally dry & hydration plays a key role. Hot oil treatments are definitely my fav also

    Yesterday I took down a sew in and I sprayed my hair with aloe Vera juice and sealed it with an oil and left it in for about 2 hours then I shampooed and deep conditioned and I tried your finger coil method and left it in overnight my hair barely shed and it was so soft. And I used the eden bodyworks leave in and the two kids products from them you use my definition is crazy. Thank you for your videos 💕

    • @NekiCakes
      @NekiCakes  6 років тому +11

      B Christine the struggle can be real difficult, it sucks not everyone can retain moisture well. Being mindful of the ingredients you’re using in your hair specially if you are protein sensitive - using products with protein often can really make your hair straw like. A good prepoo/clarify & a serious deep condition is a great way to start off, then continue on with your regular wash routine. Thank you for your message

    This explains why your type 4 hair is different from mine and no matter if I follow your tips my hair will never look this moisturized because you have high porosity and mine is low porosity. It's easier for your hair to look more moisturized.

      Sharnell Grant I’m not all type 4, and I don’t claim for everyone’s hair to “look” like mines, the whole point is to achieve proper moisture for those who suffer from dry hair. Low or high porosity can’t stop anyone from obtaining moisturized

      Right! I have found that less is far more for us low-po girls. For example, after cleansing/conditioning, I only use a leave-in and oil, or a moisturizer and oil and that’s it; or sometimes only an oil. And then sometimes I apply a little Shea Butter to my ends only. Once you get the moisture in, it will stay in for a long time. Heat and warm water is a definite need! No cold water rinses. And try to limit proteins and silicones that can cause buildup. The absolute best is using Ayurvedic herbs and clays! Talk about life-changing!

    Yesssssss Gurllll!!! You spoke natural life...I totally agree with everything you said. I tell ppl all the time "you NEED too do consistent maintenance, pay attention to ingredients and what your specific hair likes." Im protein sensitive, so I must avoid. however I still do the same weekly maintenance, but pay attention to ingredients to ensure I don't experience protein overload. Plus if I wait over 7 days to wash, lord knows the dryness and single strand knots I will experience. I know what my hair likes, so I know what products will easily detangle and bring it back. But nobody wants to go threw that struggle or lose hair in the process lol Consistency is Major Key...

    I now do 5 days every 5 days I wash my hair I used to wash it every Wednesday 7-8 days but my hair be very dry before my next wash so I cut it down a lot to just see but it lasts to the fifth day which it does so I just decided to just keep it on the fifth day and so far and so on I really haven’t had a problem with my hair being dry since I don’t give no time to be dry cause it’s just like I just did it three days ago you know so that’s good enough for me lol i’m on my hair growth journey. Also is the reason why I changed my wash day so yeah and I wash my hair and for sections and since I’m wearing my wig which also helps me to grab my hair too as well so I don’t have to do anything to my natural hair and I could just constantly just keep them in those for braid you know, when I get out my brush and braid it into those four plaits and put my button on and whenever I go somewhere, i just pop my wig on

    fantastic tips my hair is super dry and i dont wash it much maybe once a month twice if I'm not lazy lol sad i know but i noticed my hair grows pretty good the less i wash but I do want to get in the habit of washing more to retain more moisture

  • @roguee529
    @roguee529 6 років тому +1

    So, if your hair is already dried out, you need to co-wash (conditioner wash) it or do a deep treatment mask on it, before you attempt to shampoo. And the only way to up keep your hair properly is to refresh it once or twice a week. I prefer "As I Am Coconut Co-wash" in stead of shampoo.

    • @NekiCakes
      @NekiCakes  6 років тому

      Rogue E I prefer my prepoo method.

    • @roguee529
      @roguee529 6 років тому

      Don't you pretty much just deep condition it. I saw you make a deep conditioner in, I think it was, your wash day video.

    • @NekiCakes
      @NekiCakes  6 років тому

      Rogue E yes but my hair wasn’t dry, I determine what I use on my hair based on how much moisture it has prior to washing. 1st If my hair is dried out prior to washing I do my prepoo then I shampoo. 2nd if it’s still moist prior to washing I deep condition then style I don’t shampoo before of after..if it’s a in between i can cowash it but I rarely do that.

    • @roguee529
      @roguee529 6 років тому +1

      For me, I can not put something on my hair that can cause product build up and not shampoo. Hence, for me, co-washing never worked with regular conditioners and deep treatments. I have to use a formulated cleanser or my hair will be gross.
      But, my initial comment wasn't to you. I made it in case someone come across my comment when going through the drought that I was going through a few years ago.

    • @NekiCakes
      @NekiCakes  6 років тому +3

      Rogue E Of course, as I stated in the video everyone’s hair is different finding your recipe is key. Also, I respond to the majority of the comments under my video even if it’s a suggestion, but honestly your comment came off more as a question than a suggestion.

    You make a lot of since and we have a lot in common in terms of washing once a week and knowing that water is our friend. I just washed someone get a deva cut and she applied the products after by taking it through with her hair turn upside down and her hair was up and not hanging down and I was like she should have did it down so the curls can be a lot more define and downward but apparently she is a certified deva stylist🤷🏽‍♀️ Even people in the comments of this video was saying her hair should have been a lot more defined. Then you verifying it should always be applied downward which I always do💯 had me wondering why people with longer hair is always up. I'm like my hair isn't even as long as yours and hangs down. You would think they would have common sense but nope!

    I don't know about high porosity or low porosity. What I do know is that my hair is spongy and like cotton super frizzy. It loves water and it behaves best when I co-wash every other day, layer conditioner and oil to seal. Problem is the defined look doesn't last.

    • @NekiCakes
      @NekiCakes  6 років тому +2

      Noni Dorsey it seems that you know a lot about your hair, all you need now is figuring out if your high to low. If you look into the definitions of porosity you will get your answer, and it seems like you could be high. High porosity soaks up moisture but can’t hold onto it for long. Deep conditioning with a hair steamer is a great tool for frizzy dry hair. Hair can get clogged easy, Try less cowashing, add prepoo to your regimen & shampoo sometimes. Be mindful of the ingredients you are using to moisturize. A leave-in, hair milk, setting lotion/mousse,defining/curl Cremes, natural brand gels work great for our hair

  • @maneattraction923

    Oh my God 🥺❣️ you're a blessing like how are our views so on per? I deep condition over night cause 30mins don't do squat for me and we have the same curl type plus I'm low po as well. I never not wash my hair under a shower head that is the KEY✨ to elongation, defrizzing and shiny hair. My hair used to look 4c and super frizzy till I learnt how to deal with my hair type and porosity, also knowing your products and how best your hair likes them being applied is very important. Awesome video as always, I'm curious your old chebe video inspired me to try chebe so I just ordered... Do you still use chebe in your routine?

      Breona the midweek cowash helps me if I don’t have time I just rinse my hair. If not the sweat makes my hair crusty and feels gross. Ain’t no shame. I was never one to go more than a week without a wash to begin with. I’m prone to acne and it’s a recipe of disaster.

      Shaina Benjamin Same! When I started working out, I started cowashing midweek. I had to cleanse my hair of sweat and dirt, otherwise I'd have a dry, tangled birds nest on my head. My hair loves the additional moisture and hydration as well.

      Sis pls dont judge me but I workout 5 days a week doing high intensity and heavy weights. I wash my hair every 2 weeks. I DC when I wash and use a heavy OLC method. Drinking alot of water helps immensely that's what keeps your scalp hydrated oiling your scalp is an addition. My hair grows like weeds. I have LP hair. I use to wash every 3 to 4 days and was constantly manipulating my hair. WTH was I thinking lmbo
