The Memory of You by Swif7
www.epidemicsound.com/albums/...
You've inspired me to just wear my fro. I need to stop stressing about length retention and just let my hair be. So I'm just gone wear my fro and moisturize it. Thank you for showing me it's possible to love every part of yourself, especially when our hair type is not accepted by society. It's been two years since I've been natural and I e just been carifn for my hair in box braids. As of January this year, I've been wearing it out. And I've challenged myself to that for the whole year, to become comfort bake with my hair but also learn to truly love it. So thank you very much!
YESSS!!! Untamed and unashamed, love ❤️ I'm so proud of you. The freedom you will experience is priceless. And no one can take that away from you. Thank you for seeing your beauty and uniqueness ❤️
Because of u all I want to wear is my afro now ❤️☺️
Yay! I'm so happy to hear that! ❤️
Hey Joy-el, just wanted to clear up the aloe vera juice issue for you, Aloe Vera is a natural humectant, and humectants are substances that absorb/attract water, normally a humectant (aloe, glycerin, hyluranic acid, etc etc) would absorb (aka attract) water molecules (aka moisture) to your hair and skin which is why a lot of cosmetic products incorporate them into their products BUT most humectants work BEST in humid environments, that way the humectant can attract the moisture in the air and then your hair and skin can then absorb them thus keeping you moisturized.
However if I remember correctly you live in an arid environment (Arizona, eight?) so b/c the air doesn't have much moisture/water the aloe was actually attracting the water out of you hair and making it easier to evaporate, thus making your hair dry. Solution to this is to make sure after applying a humectant is to properly seal the hair with an emollient (such as an oil, but there are other types of emollients), you did use argan oil but as you said without an emulsifier to keep the oil and water combined the oil is unevenly distributed on your hair, thus not sealing in the humectant and water.
Also forgoing a humectant (by itself) in an arid place is also a solution, like just using water and an oil should be just find but the leave-in conditioner is probably the best for you where you currently live as it already has the humectant, emollient , and emulsifier in it all together to get the job done. I personally live in humid Georgia so I love Aloe Vera and it helps keep my hair hydrated/moisturized b/c it attracts the moisture out of the air towards my hair for my hair to absorb.
Hope this helps :)
Thank you! This helped clarify so much and makes perfect sense ❤️
Try using blue magic grease as a sealant. It does wonders for me.
Yeah the aloe Vera Juice, mixing with water dried my hair out..... Even if I use aloe Vera alone, still dries my hair out🤦🏾♀️ Water + leave in + Oil is my best refresher spray.
Hey, i just posted explaining aloe vera juice and why it might be drying out some people's hair, i don't know where you live but if you live in an arid/dry place then yes it will make your hair more dry b/c it is a humectant and humectants absorb/attract water, so you will need to seal it in immediately after putting it on your hair with an emollient (like an oil). But water+leave+oil works just fine too :)
What type of Oil do you use? Because I am having the exact same problem. Aloe Vera still dries my hair out no matter what
@@alvarezfam1 I use a mixture of JBCO + Olive Oil + Peppermin Oil on my scalp.
Then I use any type of leave in (After warn shower) + cream + Blue magic on my hair.
I do a similiar one for years, it's so much cheaper. I recommend using distilled water if you keep it around for longer tap water will eventually start to stink
I love referring to my natural hair as a plant as well.😊❤
That's exactly what I've been doing. I even separate the fro and spray deep like you were doing. It works better for me when the water is warm.
you have a beautiful afro, rock your crown like a queen
rosewater and glycerin work Wonderful 4c Natural hair
Love the lip color
I love your beautiful afro hairstyle video ❤️❤️
Thank you for this! I’ve been doing this with my leftover leave-in, except i poured water and leave-in and oils into the empty refreshing spray bottle
Thank you so much. I have a 360 water spray bottle and I am going to make up my own refresher spray. Using the products should I use in my hair now. Well, the leave-in conditioner and water and oil.
new to your channel and was not expecting that texture hair and it was a beautiful surprise that you for your representation.
Reminder set😊💞
Loved the video! Definitely gonna start doing this again. I got lazy lol
Interesting video I normally use the spray bottles you get from walmart and water helps detangle my hair easy .
So cute!
Beautiful hair, awesome personality, and cool voice 💚
You hair is sooooo beautiful😍🥰❤️❤️
Yasss Queen... Your hair is majestic and magnificent!! ⚛⚛⚛
Beautiful afro!
Great video. I have learned that aloe vera can cause protein overload which can cause dryness.
I'm glad you said that because I stopped using aloe vera. It does mimic a protein and for low porosity hair that's an absolute no, no...
It will dry your hair out and cause breakage so I have eliminated that for my routine and my hair has been a lot softer as a result.
This used to be my jam. I used to put lotion for cream. Random black hair brand oil or corn or canola and water in my hands to finger detangle lol
Happily just discovered your channel! I was wondering, do you use this refresher spray even after steaming your hair in the shower like your other video? Thank you!
Great idea
Now the this is cool see you in a few
I love rocking a big fro but my hair is still at a medium length. Do you guys know of extensions I can add unto my hair? No clip ins but bundles
lookin nice with the afro :P
Do you warm it up..being low porosity? I've been using warm water everyday, refilling my bottle ..which is annoying!!
I make my own refresh spray, too.
Can you add a moisturizer instead of a leave-in?
Cool
Your shape is so awesome
Can u tell me where got that hair bonnet from?
She gets her bonnets from Swirly Curly.
lol. i do this as well
I could see some of the curls definition left over😹 Half the time I tend to use just water first but sometimes if I want a particular scent or amount of moisture, to the brand refreshing sprays. Interesting that you hair changed towards using aloe as your refresher. This was good and to the point🥰
Aww thank you, love!
Joy-el 😊
Very 👍🏿 nice😎
Have you ever tried hair grease to seal you hair...I thi k you might like it. I use Blue Magic or Natures Blessing
Filming a video on it soon actually!
@@SharmaineJoyel cool! Can't wait wait to see it
My hair detests aloe Vera juice too!
Damn
have you experienced matted hair?
if so, can you do a video on how to release the mattes?
She shows us in her afro video. It's pretty much what she did here, but first she allows the steam from her shower to loosen it up, revives it with the spray, then fluffs.
A way I help prevent and treat matted hair (I have mainly 4c hair) is to pre-poo with 50/50 cheap conditioner and oil (I use olive) my hair before I wash it and let it sit for about 30 mins, then I gently detangle the hair (I personally love the tangle tweezer type brushes) from ends to roots then wash my hair. It has helped me cut down on breakage and mattes, I also have low porosity hair and I think low porosity hair has a tendency to matte when going from dry to extremely wet, especially if you are using a sulfate based shampoo which is fine, but sulfates do strict away ALL moisture as well as oils and dirt and that is usually when my hair gets matted, in the shower after a shampoo.
@@neoagegirlthemaverick7468 thank you for the tip! I never pre-poo and you hair type & behavior sounds like mine. will definitely try it this week.
@@Taj-Mahal No problem and I use to think pre-pooing was counter productive so I never did it but I have learned through painful trial and error that it really is best for my hair, I hope it helps :)
My hair keeps getting caught in the black one
Great video, how is your mom doing? How is her hair coming along?
She's doing great! She already wants to trim it down lol!
@@SharmaineJoyel you have such a beautiful mom 😀
Aww thank you so much!
What was that in the background @5:50??
I came here to make sure I wasnt crazy 😭😭😭😭
@@Warren2013 I was like I know I'm not tripping‼️
I know! I kept replaying it because I wanted to see if it was a dog or a small child but it was neither. Just a blur! Looks like she has a ghost.
@@silentnight1888 my thoughts exactly. Unless it was someone walking outside and that was the reflection? 🤷🏾♀️
@@sellac.1569 Nah. I just checked again. Doesn't look like a reflection through a window, plus I don't think she's on the ground floor.
That view tho
You are so fine omg
I did this exact thing to my hair on an old braid out for like 2 weeks but my hair still got tangled and matted 🤦🏾♀️
Anyone noticed the ghost in the background at 5:50? XD
PS: Love you Joy-el
That's is a little boy maybe her son🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
@@natalyabarrett2784 ohhh lol makes sense haha!!
wash and gos not really good
I hate to say this because no matter how you say it, sounds bad. but I’ve never seen anyone that looks you. With your bonnet on I would never expect you to have hair like mine. You remind me of that “trans-racial” lady. Lol at her. She would kill to have your hair. I’m just fascinated. You don’t look like anyone I’ve ever seen. That’s cool tho. Wish I could say that
She could add sugar and then we would have cotton candy.
No
You have a white woman's face with a black woman's hair. Interesting.
why did you feel the need to say that?
