      I really hope you'll respond to me...
      I think my hair has a hard time holding on to moisture. For this, you recommend a leave in conditioner. I looked at the ingredients in the one you showed in this video and I assume the main ingredient that is helping hair hold on to moisture in this product is the silicone. Is this correct? I don't want to use silicone in my hair though, so is there another product you'd recommend, or a specific ingredient I should look for to seal the moisture into my hair? I have very thin, fine hair, so I can only put oil on the very ends. Literally every amount of every type of oil leaves my hair oily.

    -conditioner/hair mask
    -leave-in conditioner on wet hair (12-16 sprays for my hair type) then brush it with a wet brush
    -hair oil (use only a bit on ends)

    • @RunninUpThatHillh

      Wash hair with clay. Most importantly... Cut washes to 1-4 times a month (I do once a week). Oil entire head overnight treatment before wash day. Oil ends after washing or if hair is fine, use aloe juice. Whichever you use, apply to damp hair. They seal the water in. All these expensive things are ridiculous. I have clay, jojoba oil, aloe juice. Dirt cheap.

      @Paula-um3js Рік тому +37

      ​​​​@@RunninUpThatHillh 100% agree with you. I can't cut washes because my hair is literally falling out like hell if I let it dirty for too long (yes, if you create a lot of sebum it can clog your pores leading to inflammation and hair fall). But in general, I switched to an organic shampoo, even one called for sensitive scalp so completely not aggressive, and I already see a lot of improvement. I can wash every 4 days vs everyday like before. Just that, I didn't add any other cosmetics. Also, I changed my diet a lot, people skip this part like it doesn't matter at all, but yes if you eat a lot of fastfood or any other grease, I will come out one way or another. What you eat is like 80% why your hair and skin looks the way it does. Cleaning oil is fine, but stripping your hair of all the necessary sebum (so you'll soon run for more professional conditioners, masks, sprays) isn't.

    • @Paula-um3js
      @Paula-um3js Рік тому +12

      @@heartofmiracles I'd say conditioner after every wash, every shampoo is a bit stripping for your hair. If I remember correctly, he said conditioner is to add moisture to your hair, and a leave in is to lock that moisture in.
      Edit: Mask is something to use once in a while, depending how often you wash but once a week, once in two weeks. It's like very heavy treatment.

    Great advise! Other tips you can apply:
    - change your pillow case frequently, and if they're satin or silk even better.
    - avoid touching your hair and scalp to keep it cleaner longer.
    - watch what you eat and maybe take some supplements. While you can help from the outside with the adequate products, sometimes the problem comes from the inside. A lack of nutrients will affect your hair and skin. There are are some great supplements for Hair, skin and nails.
    - avoid very hot water hitting your scalp in the shower. Cold or warm at most its best. This reduced the hair fall a lot too for me.
    - use a microfiber towel or an old cotton tshirt to dry your hair, and as the professor says: be gentle. Too much friction will only make your hair frizzy and tangled.
    pd: If anyone know where to get the pureology leave in conditioner in Spain, it would be a great help. Thank you!

    this dude is on track. I’m tired of influencers telling me that because I wash my hair every day. It’s making it oily. I wash my hair every day because it is oily. It’s been that way since I was eight years old. I have tried every single thing in the world to be able to go at least two days without washing it. I also been coloring my hair every two weeks because I’m 100% gray which means I have dry ends. he’s right about getting your shampoo on your scalp. I double wash. Because I know the first time I’ll get rid of all the gunk in the second time will ensure a clean scalp. I use much less shampoo the second time like a half tablespoon. I have thick thick hair and it works. I will upgrade to professional products I promise that’s what I need to do. Thank you for being so straightforward.

    Hard water also makes a huge impact. For me, I've found that if I wash with hard water, it doesn't matter how much leave-in conditioner I use, it still dries frizzy and looks brittle, and in two days I have to wash again. When I wash in soft water, my scalp feels so much cleaner, my hair is softer and smoother, and I get an extra day between wash cycles. I have fine hair, by the way, so those of you with thicker hair may not have my problem.

      Shampoo is not only effective while it's turning into a foam, it continues to be effective afterwards. Just don't let the foam mislead you into thinking that you have less sebum to wash out, is all.
      Btw, moisture in hair is a myth, what we really mean when we say dry hair is poorly conditioned hair, which is about the surface of hair rather than anything that goes inside.
      The barrier conditioners create are to keep moisture from entering the hair (rather than to "keep moisture from escaping" as he is saying). He should know this, he understands this when he's talking about terry lined shower caps.
      I will quickly say, I still like his practical tips, I think he's awesome. But my eyeballs hurt from rolling into my skull when he expands on tHe sCiEnCe

      I really don’t think it matters as long as you’re washing twice. I have done it both ways and the end result is the same. The only difference with emulsifying is (for me personally) it distributes better and I end up using less. With the other method I usually concentrate more in certain spots and there’s not enough left for others so I go back for more.

    I just wanted to comment that I have learned so much from watching your videos, Chris. Everything you’ve shared makes complete sense and while I’m still early in my journey to follow your advise and routines, I can already see results. No one has ever explained all of this in such a straightforward way. All the tips together make a huge difference. I’ve been struggling with my hair for a few years after a round of telogen effluvium (TE) from a medicine change. I feel like I’ve tried literally everything to improve the texture of my hair after it grew back. I was washing too frequently and using a flat iron too often trying to eliminate frizz. And I hadn’t found my shampoo soulmate. And I was getting a trim every 5/6 weeks. But thanks to you, I’ve got it all together now and i’m able to go 3 days between washes.
    I now own a lined shower cap, a blowdry brush and I wear a silk bonnet to sleep at night! I’m 3 weeks in and am already seeing a huge difference! I’m so grateful for all your help. It doesn’t hurt that you are positively adorable and obviously are super passionate about helping others. I binged all your videos over 1 weekend 😂 and I can’t wait to keep watching new videos.

    Chris I'm just here to say thank you and to give my testimony for anyone who may be like me. At the beginning of the year, I had had enough. I suffered my entire life with the thinnest, flimsiest hair, I couldn't get it to grow barely past my shoulders, it was so thin you could see straight through it, it was frizzy, it just looked terrible my whole entire life. I watched every hair growing video under the sun with no help, just "sleep on a silk pillow case, use a mask, and don't us heat!", which Id done for years and years without a difference. I had accepted long ago that my hair would never look okay without extensions. But my whole life since a little girl I dreamed of having long beautiful hair. Well at the beginning of 2023 I just decided enough is enough. I just couldn't go on any longer hating my hair, the way I looked, etc. And I found this video. I immediately began implementing the advice in this video as well as all your others and I'm being one thousand percent honest, it started getting longer and healthier in LESS THAN ONE WEEK. I could tell a difference in the way it looked and the way it felt. That was back in January or February I believe. Flash forward to now, December. My hair is longer, thicker, healthier, softer, shinier than ever before in my life. When I started my hair was a little below shoulders, now it's halfway down my back. Every single time I see a friend or family member they always comment on my hair, how long it is, what am I doing, is it extensions. What's my secret. I feel so much more beautiful and confident than I've ever felt in my life. My hair is so think you can't see through it anymore. I can actually wear it up or down or styled or anything and it looks good. I went from being someone who wore her hair in a bun constantly because of how bad it looked, who would spend hours styling it just to have to put it up for how bad it looked. Who would sleep in extensions in front of my boyfriend so he wouldn't know what my hair really looked like. 25 years worth of insecurity and dreaming of something I never thought I'd have. You have no idea the lives you change, just making videos on UA-cam about hair. For someone like this, who was never taught how to care for my hair and received terribly ineffective advice whenever trying to learn. I know it might not seem like a big deal to some, but for those like me, it is nothing short of lifechanging. This has seriously been a dream I've had my entire life and it's finally come true. I am going to continue implementing your strategies, and by the end of next year if my hair keeps growing at this rate it will be at minimum down to almost my butt!! And for anyone else who was like me and happened to see this comment, just listen to this man's wisdom, do what he says, and if my hair could change yours will too!!! Good luck!!!!!!

Now I have tons of new hair growth and it looks so healthy and bouncy. Thank you soooooo much 💖

    Use shampoo in its liquid form (not foam or suds).
    - Start in the back of your neck, spread hair apart, and push the shampoo all the way down to your scalp (where oil is).
    - Repeat for top and side of your head.
    - Work the shampoo in by pressing firmly with your fingers- focus on getting your scalp clean.
    Reason why this is important: Shampoo needs to come in direct contact with the oil, and oil is on the scalp.
    Do two washes. On the second wash, use half of the shampoo (to not dry out your hair). If you get a lot of lather on the second wash, you can stop- your hair is clean. If you don't get lather, keep adding a little shampoo at a time until you get lather- then you can rinse your hair.
    Use professional shampoo.
    Adjust your hair washing schedule based on how the new shampoo performs.
    Conditioner + Hair mask
    Step 1: Leave in Conditioner
    - prevents moister from escaping
    - spray onto wet hair and brush it through with a wet brush
    - 8 sprays for fine hair, 12 sprays for medium hair, 16 sprays for coarse hair
    Step 2: Hair oil
    - Seals hair ends
    - Heavier than conditioner, use sparingly (less is more)

    As a former stylist, who still has family and friends for clients, I love your “shampoo soulmate” analogy.
    I never emulsified the shampoo, although I was taught to shampoo that way. I separated it on my fingers, and made sure it touched only their scalp , especially when shampooing color. Unless the color went to the ends, I didn’t shampoo the ends either.
    I told my clients to not condition the top half of your hair, and don’t shampoo the bottom half. The lather from your shampoo will do the job and save on your ends.
    I had many tell me they noticed a difference when they did this.
    I, however, have naturally curly hair (flat ironed in my photo), and shampoo never touches my hair! I have no scalp oil. None.
    I use cowash, when needed, to get the conditioning/styling products out instead.
    Yes, I overdue on them, but I actually love the feeling of product and a slight oily softness in my hair! It styles exactly the way I need it to. 👍🏼
    Great advice for my oily clients! Thank you, sir! ❤

      Sooo as someone with an oily scalp and dry, naturally curly hair... I am at a total loss for what to do. My dermatologist wants me to use shampoos like Nizoral or similar. (I get oily build up on my scalp) But my god it dries my hair out so much. I have to wash my scalp because of the build up though. Also, my hair isn't all one length. I have shorter bits in the front so I find it difficult not to condition the upper parts of my hair. Dermatologist said that oils from conditioners and things like that will only make my scalp issue worse. She just kind of shrugs when I ask her questions about my curly hair.

      ​@@countryrat6t6I have fine, wavy hair and an oily scalp that often becomes flaky, broken, and irritated. For me, it's a genetic thing that seems to have more to do with allergies, hormones, and skin irritation than anything else. Nizoral does clear up my scalp but dries out my hair a lot. It may sound counterintuitive, but if you have time before your next wash, you may want to warm some coconut oil and massage it into your scalp about an hour before you wash (and wash thoroughly!) It may sound counterintuitive, but something about it really helped balance my scalp. I rarely do this because it is time-consuming and a bit messy, but it did help to do it about once a week at first. I also looked for gentle hypoallergenic, unscented, and sulfate-free shampoo (NOT baby shampoo, weirdly enough. That made my hair worse.) I also noticed that sweat, dust, and dirt made my scalp break out and become oily so when that can't be avoided, I do my best to air it out and keep the sweat from sitting there too long. (Sweat that isn't allowed to evaporate can lead to fungal overgrowth on the skin.) You may want to check with your doctor about your hormones too. It can do some wild things. I suffered with an oily, acne-prone scalp as a teen, but as my hormones balanced out in my twenties I noticed fewer scalp issues.

      @@countryrat6t6 i know u left this comment a month ago, but in case ur still struggling with this issue i wanted to tell u what i do! i use nizoral too and find it very drying, so in my routine i only use it once a week and use a different, gentle shampoo 2-4 times a week, and it’s made a world of difference!! my scalp needs the anti-flakiness ingredients from the nizoral but i’ve found that once a week is enough as a sort of “treatment” for flakiness, and then i use the other shampoo as normal for just washing my scalp and hair. i think ur derm would be right that a nice conditioner would make ur scalp worse, so use the conditioner in the shower only on ur ends, but then maybe use a leave-in conditioner afterwards and focus on your shorter strands! that way u have more control over where the conditioner ends up than u do in the shower. hope things start looking up for u in the hair department!!❤️

    Cosmetologist here. What most woman don’t know is that applying those treatments or serums is best when hair is damp or wet. Versus applying directly to dry hair … the cuticle of the hair shaft is like your face. After washing your face and putting in moisturizer your pores has kinda “open “ therefore when completely dried it will lock in the nutritional value or benefits no matter the nutritional value or benefits or brand and not feel greasy …and serum placements are a big thing … if head is oily or produces more oils why put it on the scalp. Place it towards the mid shaft to ends after shower is my best advice. I’ve dyed my hair, dealt with dried out perms of my own hair and have always had long hair down to my back and only this method have worked for me. . Even if I’m using a $30-50 shampoo or a $3 shampoo.

    I'm saving up for the professional products, but I've been using these techniques with my drug store ones until they're finished, while adding a scalp scrub to the mix. The difference has been incredible after just a couple months.
    I've been so frustrated with my hair the last few years, thinking the thyroid medications I'd been taking since childhood were suddenly out of balance. I kept testing, but it was only minimally out of bounds, not enough to have such a drastic effect on my hair (hair loss, dry brittle hair, oily scalp, dandruff). We fixed it, and my other symptoms balanced out, so now what?
    Turns out, I've had short to mid length hair for so long, the pandemic was the first time I'd kept my long hair for an extended period of time. I was in high school the last time I kept long hair, and I used to straighten or mousse it everyday, and so I washed my hair twice a week. With a bob, I stopped styling it as much cause my curls already fell nicely, I switched to more natural products, and I could go a week between washes.
    That didn't hold up when my hair was long. There was just so much more surface area for moisture to leak through, and the weight of my hair made my curls fall, so I felt more of a need to style. Coconut oil masks softened my hair, but it was still frizzy and weak. The apple cider rinse I used to do once a month was just not getting the gunk out for long enough. When I finally was able to go to a salon, the stylist washed, paused, and then washed my hair twice. That had never happened to me before! It finally tipped me off that something was seriously wrong with my cleansing routine.
    Since switching to a double scalp wash (scalp scrub, then shampoo), conditioner, leave in conditioner and oil, my hair has regained its volume, its softer and become stronger, and I can see my hair is growing back longer instead of breaking. My ponytail is thicker. My hair feels noticeably clean for nearly a week if I dont style it. I honestly can't believe it. When I'm traveling and unable to maintain the routine, it's immediately obvious that my hair won't listen the same. The frizz probably won't fully go away until I switch to professional products, but my hair is its healthiest since I last had a bob in 2019. The relief is immense.

      Don't waste your time and mental energy, looking for a solution, where there isn't one. At least not one, that allows you to feel clean and well groomed and is healthy for your scalp. You wanna get excema? Sure, go ahead and use dry shampoo every day or leave your scalp sweaty and oily.
      It sucks, but if you want that lifestyle and to keep persuing these goals... you'd be much better of with a haircut, that allows for daily washing and quick blow-drying. It doesn't need to be super short, either.

      Finally one relatable comment😂 I was like ' people wash their hair everyday?' when I don't even feel the need to shampoo because my hair never feels oily unless I apply loads of it

    i love these tips, i'm also no longer the target audience because i departed from conventional shampoo about 3 years ago. the most clean i could ever get my hair was with two washes and making sure to always have a hair serum to followup with the ends for when it's dry. i started mixing my own private blend of shikakai powder and some other herbs because my hair would absolutely HURT when i was using conventional shampoo. an allergy test didn't come up with a reason so i figured i'm just one of those people who gets "hair" pain with fibromyalgia and would always live with the issue until i got bored and ran across the ayurvedic hair care aannd the hair pain stopped. i know it's the scalp that actually has feeling but if you know what i'm meaning when i say my hair would hurt then i'm so sorry you go through that, too. i honestly don't know why my hair responds so much better using the basic herbs as a shampoo mask but i'm just so glad i can touch my head again. i actually have the oily/dry combo issue sometimes and if i mix my shampoo with too much conditioning stuff i get really weighed down hair that's still dry at the ends where there is still bleach. these days i just drop some jojoba oil on my hands and run it through damp hair and braid it the day before i plan to wash it and then do a cleansing mud mask on damp hair, pray i rinse all the debris out, lol. it's not glamourous but it gets me clean.

    I’ve been learning so much from your videos. Thank you so much! I have oily hair and I was always told growing up not to use any kind of conditioner because it would make my oily hair even more greasy looking. Watching your videos has totally blown my mind on how to correctly take care of my hair.😲

    It took me years to figure out what you've been able to explain in one video - glad I can now confirm I am finally doing what's best for my hair. Personally I have found that an air dry cream suits my straight medium hair rather than the several leave in conditioners I have given a go. Having said that, now I am very interested in the Pureology Color Fanatic Leave In Conditioner Pureology Color Fanatic Leave In Conditioner since I saw it being advertized at every store I shop at for hair care this year & you say it's the best! Thank you for your videos, I hope it reaches more people who need the final touches to their routine to best care for their hair.

    This video helped so much. Couldn't figure out why my hair was always greasy. I watched some hair stylists wash hair and followed your tips. My hair is so soft and shiny now. It feels so clean too. I was super excited to wash my hair.
