Honeysuckle you can do a porosity test. Put one strand of your hair in a cup of water. If it floats, it's low porosity. Meaning your follicle is resistant to moisture or doesn't take in moisture easily. If it sinks, you're high porosity. Your hair loves moisture and soaks it up.

Type: all the 4’s Density: medium Porosity: low Fav oil: Olive, avocado, jojoba, jbc DC: DIY avocado mask w honey and Cantu Cream Conditioner (no proteins, no aloe, no coconut - perfect for protein sensitives like me) Leave in: yet to find one without the three ingredients my hair hates. I just use oil and film-forming humectants such as flaxseed gel (great for moisture retention) Method: greenhouse pre-poo with olive and avocado oil over night (the slip for detangling and conditioning qualities are great) . Clay mask the next day (moisture and definition 👌🏾). DC with heat for an hour. Hair feels amazing after all this. It's taken a loooong time for me to master this method and products. Janet is right about the importance of learning *your* hair. It takes real commitment but it's the only way to get your hair to thrive. I've been natural 3 years and I'm now bra strap. I should be mid-back but had to cut a lot off in that time due to ignorance but now I'm on a roll. Waist length, I'm coming for ya! 💪🏾
I love the detail to this! Thank you so much for sharing beautiful ♥️ As for a leave in have you tried Giovanni? Link is in the bio if you want to see the ingredients, my hair loves it and gives it great slip, let me know how it goes 😁💕
Janet Davies hey Janet 🙋🏾 I have indeed tried Giovanni as I heard great things and natural non-toxic ingredients too. I was so hyped to try it and bitterly disappointed with how my hair responded to it. I was truly perplexed until I finally worked out that my low porosity hair is also protein sensitive and hates Aloe Vera which Giovanni use as there top 3 ingredients across their full range 😩 so nothing containing Aloe Vera for this fro of mine unfortunately. Loving your scripture verses by the way 🙌🏾
Love ourWorld Productions good question - according to a brilliant trichologist named Afope here on UA-cam (search her, she's amazing), Aloe Vera is packed full of amino acids which are said to be "the building blocks of proteins" so for me it's a hypersensitivity to these but not the case for everyone.
Hair type: 4c Density: medium Porosity: low Leave-in: any water based leave-in such as Design Essentials Almond & Avocado (Thick or heavy cream leave ins are hard to penetrate through tightly coiled hair) Oil: Jamaican black castor oil Side note: with low porosity 4c hair, it is VERY IMPORTANT you use heat when applying your product otherwise the product just sits on top of your hair and will not get in your strands, as a result create product build up and weighing your strands down. That means deep conditioners under the dryer EVERY wash day. I recently started adding my leave in before I get out of the shower so the steam from hot water keeps the heat in my head, that's a game changer ladies! Even if I need to add water to my hair, I put hot water in my spritz bottle. If your 4c low porosity, we need moisture (water), heat to penetrate the product, and oil to seal in the moisture(water).
Have considered a hair steamer instead of using direct heat from a hair dryer? I'm low porosity too and it works wonders if I'm not going into the shower and using them steam I sit under the hair steamer and then apply all my conditioners etc. It works very well
1. Type: 4B e C 2. Density: thick 3. Porosity: high 4. Fave oil: Olive oil 5. Fave leave in conditioner: well, I use kanechom. It's a cream to comb your hair and also a leave- in. Don't know if know that leave in, sorry I'm from Mozambique - Africa. 6. Current routine: overnight pré- poo with olive oil and castor oil on braided hair, and garlic toner on scalp, then shampoo, deep condition, conditioner and then LOC (with rice water, olive oil and leave in) once a week. Then I put some virgin hair fertilizer during the week.

@@gloriajjackson5035 yeah, I cowash with As I Am cowash.... Sometimes I use African black soap to wash my hair and sometimes I use bentonite clay .... I only shampoo once a month
I love your video it was so informative. I'm so glad that you're trying to help all us sisters with growing our own natural hair so that we want be so prone to wear wigs. Because we've learned from our environment around us that wigs seem to be the easy fix, instead of focusing and caring for our natural hair types. It bothers me that so many of our beautiful women of color are using glue on our heads which is ripping our edges completely off. I truly thank you for educating us on growing our own natural hair. ❤
So kind! I’m glad you found it helpful, this is definitely my goal, I want everyone to reach their healthy hair growth potential. Thank you for watching and commenting ♥️

@@scarpiongirl6172 lol! If it stopped completely you would have alopecia... Unless you do have alopecia. If you do have alopecia then just embrace the bald look! I had a teacher at school who was bald and she was said by the boys to be the hottest teacher! Lol!
Hi love, please don’t give up. Yes there are genetics but there are things we can do to promote growth, one of these things is a good hair care routine to ensure that you maintain the length of the hair you are growing. In this series I’m going to also teach on ways to boost growth. I am waiting to get to this point because the most important thing is having a good routine and understanding your hair, once you have this locked down then and inly then is it beneficial to learn at ways to boost hair growth because then you will be able to maintain that length from your good routine! ♥️
Type: 3c/4a Density: high Porosity: low Conditioner: Shea moisture jbco leave in or Bella Curls jbco leave in conditioner (on the cheaper side but it’s awesome, keeps my hair moisturized for four days before I need to refresh) Styler: wetline xtreme or eco styler argan oil, I alternate between different creams depending on what I’m going for Oil: JBCO, Argan oil, or the Pantene gold series oil... so amazing and thick!! Deep conditioner: Aussie moisture 3 minute miracle (the sea kelp or coconut oil one I’m going to try the apricot one but so far I’m loving both even as a girl whose hair hates coconut oil, it has my hair so incredibly soft when I rinse it out and shiny!) Routine: wash once per week, sometimes twice (depending on if I work out or do other activities), deep condition with shower cap, detangle with leave in conditioner + twist up. I’ll use a blow dryer sometimes when I feel like it but not always, I like to air dry because my wash days aren’t late at night but if they are, I’ll be sure to blow dry but first I’ll soak up the extra moisture with an old shirt. Protein: honestly I don’t do these very often but I can tell when my curls are a little limp so I do a protein treatment about once every three months or so, just depends on how my hair feels
Type 4A/4B lil sections in front and back is 3.density medium. Wet state more on thin side. I’m high porosity. My hair loves organic products or vitamins type products (mane choice).

Type: 4B/4C Density: Thick Porosity: high Fave oil: Almond, argan and coconut oil Fave leave- in conditioner: blue magic, Cantu and Aunt Jackie’s Current Routine: Shampoo 2-3 weeks, leave in, oil, P.S if you have really thick hair like mine that’s hard to retain mustier, I recommend using Blue magic because trust me that things like magic. Plus, Leaving in Aloe Vera, overnight before wash day. Is like the bomb. Come, girl trust me! try it and you will not regret it. Also, I prefer using Argon oil shampoo: it’s SLS + Paraben free also allows you to retain your natural hair mustier compared to when I used the Shaea moisture shampoo + conditioner. That thing left my hair feeling all crispy, dry and tangled.

Sounds great, excited for you as you start your journey ☺️♥️. With porosity, our ends actually tend to be higher in porosity, did you take a strand from the root? This will be in my next video but typically low porosity hair is characterised by product not absorbing into the hair unless applied in/just after the shower, unless it just “sits” on the hair without penetrating. High porosity hair is characterised by hair that takes moisture in very quickly but typically it evaporated quite easily and feels dry after. I hope this helps you sweet one ♥️

I am transitioning right now...haven't had a perm since early March 2020, prior to everything shutting down due to the coronavirus. I especially used no heat at all. I'm almost 6 months into my journey and finding I'm very impatient with the two hair textures. I cannot tell what my curl pattern is growing from my scalp due to the permed hair on the ends of my hair. I also keep staring at my hair looking for growth. I need to STOP being so focused on that and focus instead on caring for my hair. I'm determined to get my hair in the healthiest state possible

I try to be as natural as possible so I just wash with Apple cider vinegar and water, and as for conditioner I use the DIY aloe Vera juice + several oils (olive, peppermint, jojoba and castor oil)
1. 4B in the front, 4c in the middle and 4a in the back 2. High density 3. Low porosity 4. Grape seed oil is my fave 5. Pattern by Tracy Ellis Ross leave-in ❤️❤️❤️ 6. I wash once a week currently recovering from bad breakage due to anemia and stress: I pre-Poo with grape seed oil for at least two hours, I shampoo with either greaux shampoo or mojito mint shampoo by VIP Luxury Hair Care, deep condition with Design Essentials Restore Vitamin Treatment. The recommended use for optimum results with the vitamin treatment is 4 weeks. I’m on week 3 and have seen massive improvement. I oil my scalp with Wild Growth Oil and a boost moisture hair and scalp oil by Purpose Kollection. I cornrow my hair straight back because I’m wearing wigs and ball caps currently.

Just subscribed. I’m currently relaxed with about 2 1/2 inches of new growth. I want to transition so I’ve started using natural products and taking care of my hair. I don’t won’t to big chop but I did have to cut about 4-5 inches a few weeks ago because of really bad split ends. I hadn’t had a trim in 2020 😳. This will be my second time trying to wear my natural hair. The first time I did the big chop but was not focused on healthy hair only on styling my natural hair which was a bust hence why I went back to being relaxed. Now that I’m focused on healthy hair I think I’m better equipped to wear my natural hair. Prayers needed!!!

This is great sis ❤️ yes please for how to customise your routine I have naturally higher porosity hair, fine strands medium/high density loves protein I find there is so much more info for low porosity I need to find more high porosity naturals. 4a favourite oils Castor, aloe vera, avocado, jojoba (although I have been majorly slacking on oils I like to try all different oils not just these) favourite conditioners shea moisture, As I am I DC weekly/bi weekly my hair/edges is thinner/breaks easier since my second child 😩
Love your hair! I am just starting my natural hair journey. Hair type 4B,4C Density: medium Porosity: I think its low at the natural point and high on the ends. Not sure if that is possible Fav Oil: almond oil Routine: wash 2-3 weeks, overnight DC, shampoo, conditioner with steamer, air dry
Yes that definitively possible. The strands at your roots (new growth basically) are less likely to have cuticle damage hence why the hair Close to the scalp is less porous than the hair at the tip 😀
Type 4c Density thick Porosity low Favorite oil extra virgin olive oil Leave in conditioner is aloe vera juice black Jamaican castor oil Deep conditioner Deep conditioner is key Shampoo a week and a half Wash day 3 hours Products I use is Aussie also finger detangle
My porosity is a bit of both!My hair dries super quickly but then I also need heat to help seal in my conditioners.. I thought I was High porosity until I need the hair strand in the ware test and it floated on the top. 😫 I just can’t!

I have 4a/4b hair, high porosity, high density and i've been trying to grow my hair since February but I've been natural all of my life. My hair is pretty healthy but I really want long hair. My hair has been medium length/ armpit length for a long time. it's starting to get longer but i need more tips.
*Hair type* fine, low density, 4b/c *Porosity* High (products go in easy but don't stay in) *Fave oils* Oils are messy for me so I seal with shae butter *Routine* braids for 1 month then wash and deep condition with the olive oil shampoo and conditioner by garnier. I also trim my ends when needed *Fave leave-in conditioner* Cantu curl activator cream
Type:4c Density:Thick Porosity:Low Fave oils: Coconut oil and Olive oil Favourite leave in:Can't Shea butter repair cream Current routine: Protective style 2 months (moisturize and oil scalp) take out hair and wash I have no problem at all with growing my hair every time I take out my braids I have so much new growth, the problem I have us retaining the length after I wash my hair my hair turns into a brick and is uncombable and causes so much breakage
Thank you so much for sharing beautiful ♥️ how about detangling your hair in the shower, completely saturate with water, soak your hair in conditioner working in sections finger detangle then comb if you feel to. Definitely watch my wash day routine and detangling video for more insight. ♥️
11:27 I am starting over again. I lost a lot but hopefully will gain it back even at my age. I believe I'm 4a 4b and 4c Not sure of Porosity My hair loves Grape seed oil, Rosemary oil, Coconut oil, and Olive oil
Type 4: don't really subscribe to this tbh, so I would just say coliy Density: Thick Porosity: High but not always keen on high amounts of protein Hair regiment: lazy natural🙈 usually wash every 2-3 weeks, use a array of deep conditioners, pre poo, favourite deep conditioner Shea moisture Favourite oil: Almond, Avocado, JBCO, olive oil. (Currently recovering from protein overload)..😩 like to finger detangle only, but my primark comb is the ONLY COMB I WILL USE!. Need to use more silk satin bonnets.. really bad 4 this.
Your hair is always growing my love, if it’s been the same length then it’s breaking off. Definitely watch my Hair Goals Series to get to the root of the issue?
I love you and the fact it obvious you're proud of Jesus!
Thank you ♥️♥️😁

Lovely hair......need thickness....my hair is thin.....any methods of treatment???????
Honeysuckle you can do a porosity test. Put one strand of your hair in a cup of water. If it floats, it's low porosity. Meaning your follicle is resistant to moisture or doesn't take in moisture easily. If it sinks, you're high porosity. Your hair loves moisture and soaks it up.

Would aloe be considered protein for hair?
Love ourWorld Productions good question - according to a brilliant trichologist named Afope here on UA-cam (search her, she's amazing), Aloe Vera is packed full of amino acids which are said to be "the building blocks of proteins" so for me it's a hypersensitivity to these but not the case for everyone.
Have you tried shea moistures jbco line? Or Ik there’s a honey leave in conditioner out there from a brand I don’t remember.

Type: 4A/B
Density: Thin
Porosity: High
Current leave ins:Root2tip Quench anti-breakage creme
Shampoo: 3 weeks, diy DC, leave in, oil, set
Hair type: 4c
Density: medium
Porosity: low
Leave-in: any water based leave-in such as Design Essentials Almond & Avocado
(Thick or heavy cream leave ins are hard to penetrate through tightly coiled hair)
Oil: Jamaican black castor oil
Side note: with low porosity 4c hair, it is VERY IMPORTANT you use heat when applying your product otherwise the product just sits on top of your hair and will not get in your strands, as a result create product build up and weighing your strands down. That means deep conditioners under the dryer EVERY wash day. I recently started adding my leave in before I get out of the shower so the steam from hot water keeps the heat in my head, that's a game changer ladies! Even if I need to add water to my hair, I put hot water in my spritz bottle. If your 4c low porosity, we need moisture (water), heat to penetrate the product, and oil to seal in the moisture(water).
Have considered a hair steamer instead of using direct heat from a hair dryer? I'm low porosity too and it works wonders if I'm not going into the shower and using them steam I sit under the hair steamer and then apply all my conditioners etc. It works very well
Every black girl needd to know about you OMG I love how you are detailed and good on how you explain vids about type 3-4 hair God bless ❤️

PURITY M.....your specs ate similar to mine. When you DC on the week that you do not shampoo, do you cowash?
@@gloriajjackson5035 yeah, I cowash with As I Am cowash.... Sometimes I use African black soap to wash my hair and sometimes I use bentonite clay .... I only shampoo once a month
I love your video it was so informative. I'm so glad that you're trying to help all us sisters with growing our own natural hair so that we want be so prone to wear wigs. Because we've learned from our environment around us that wigs seem to be the easy fix, instead of focusing and caring for our natural hair types. It bothers me that so many of our beautiful women of color are using glue on our heads which is ripping our edges completely off. I truly thank you for educating us on growing our own natural hair. ❤
So kind! I’m glad you found it helpful, this is definitely my goal, I want everyone to reach their healthy hair growth potential. Thank you for watching and commenting ♥️

Yeah my hair grows as slow as 1inch every 4 months, so, I guess I'll see myself out.
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 Same
Similar. Daily scalp massages will stimulate blood flow and growth.
Lol mine stopped completely
@@scarpiongirl6172 lol! If it stopped completely you would have alopecia... Unless you do have alopecia. If you do have alopecia then just embrace the bald look! I had a teacher at school who was bald and she was said by the boys to be the hottest teacher! Lol!
Hi love, please don’t give up. Yes there are genetics but there are things we can do to promote growth, one of these things is a good hair care routine to ensure that you maintain the length of the hair you are growing. In this series I’m going to also teach on ways to boost growth. I am waiting to get to this point because the most important thing is having a good routine and understanding your hair, once you have this locked down then and inly then is it beneficial to learn at ways to boost hair growth because then you will be able to maintain that length from your good routine! ♥️
Type: 3c/4a
Density: high
Porosity: low
Conditioner: Shea moisture jbco leave in or Bella Curls jbco leave in conditioner (on the cheaper side but it’s awesome, keeps my hair moisturized for four days before I need to refresh)
Styler: wetline xtreme or eco styler argan oil, I alternate between different creams depending on what I’m going for
Oil: JBCO, Argan oil, or the Pantene gold series oil... so amazing and thick!!
Deep conditioner: Aussie moisture 3 minute miracle (the sea kelp or coconut oil one I’m going to try the apricot one but so far I’m loving both even as a girl whose hair hates coconut oil, it has my hair so incredibly soft when I rinse it out and shiny!)
Routine: wash once per week, sometimes twice (depending on if I work out or do other activities), deep condition with shower cap, detangle with leave in conditioner + twist up. I’ll use a blow dryer sometimes when I feel like it but not always, I like to air dry because my wash days aren’t late at night but if they are, I’ll be sure to blow dry but first I’ll soak up the extra moisture with an old shirt.
Protein: honestly I don’t do these very often but I can tell when my curls are a little limp so I do a protein treatment about once every three months or so, just depends on how my hair feels

Current Routine: Shampoo 2-3 weeks, leave in, oil,
P.S if you have really thick hair like mine that’s hard to retain mustier, I recommend using Blue magic because trust me that things like magic.
Plus, Leaving in Aloe Vera, overnight before wash day. Is like the bomb. Come, girl trust me! try it and you will not regret it.
Also, I prefer using Argon oil shampoo: it’s SLS + Paraben free also allows you to retain your natural hair mustier compared to when I used the Shaea moisture shampoo + conditioner. That thing left my hair feeling all crispy, dry and tangled.

Sounds great, excited for you as you start your journey ☺️♥️.
With porosity, our ends actually tend to be higher in porosity, did you take a strand from the root?
This will be in my next video but typically low porosity hair is characterised by product not absorbing into the hair unless applied in/just after the shower, unless it just “sits” on the hair without penetrating.
High porosity hair is characterised by hair that takes moisture in very quickly but typically it evaporated quite easily and feels dry after.
I hope this helps you sweet one ♥️

I am transitioning right now...haven't had a perm since early March 2020, prior to everything shutting down due to the coronavirus. I especially used no heat at all. I'm almost 6 months into my journey and finding I'm very impatient with the two hair textures. I cannot tell what my curl pattern is growing from my scalp due to the permed hair on the ends of my hair. I also keep staring at my hair looking for growth. I need to STOP being so focused on that and focus instead on caring for my hair. I'm determined to get my hair in the healthiest state possible

@@an.anagho2285 I don't use shampoo. Because shampoos contain several chemicals which may be toxic to my hair. I try to be as natural as possible so I just wash with Apple cider vinegar and water, and as for conditioner I use the DIY aloe Vera juice + several oils (olive, peppermint, jojoba and castor oil)

6. I wash once a week currently recovering from bad breakage due to anemia and stress: I pre-Poo with grape seed oil for at least two hours, I shampoo with either greaux shampoo or mojito mint shampoo by VIP Luxury Hair Care, deep condition with Design Essentials Restore Vitamin Treatment. The recommended use for optimum results with the vitamin treatment is 4 weeks. I’m on week 3 and have seen massive improvement. I oil my scalp with Wild Growth Oil and a boost moisture hair and scalp oil by Purpose Kollection. I cornrow my hair straight back because I’m wearing wigs and ball caps currently. I add a bit of twist and lock gel by Cantu. This works great for me!
Hair type: extra fine strands of 4c
Density: high
Porosity: high
Favorite leave in: Cantu
Favorite oil: no longer use oils due to scalp issues.
Routine: daily Am: mist/spray leave in.

My hair grows slow and my scalp is sensitive so I have some specific scalp products to massage in daily. They are gels and liquids not oils.
I have never had long hair due to breakage, braiding, lack of moisture, chemical processes, incorrect detangling, and health concerns. Luckily it has always been thick and dense.

Just subscribed. I’m currently relaxed with about 2 1/2 inches of new growth. I want to transition so I’ve started using natural products and taking care of my hair. I don’t won’t to big chop but I did have to cut about 4-5 inches a few weeks ago because of really bad split ends. I hadn’t had a trim in 2020 😳. This will be my second time trying to wear my natural hair. The first time I did the big chop but was not focused on healthy hair only on styling my natural hair which was a bust hence why I went back to being relaxed. Now that I’m focused on healthy hair I think I’m better equipped to wear my natural hair. Prayers needed!!!
Sending prayers you way!! I know it aint easy but hopefully my videos will ease the process lots of love 💕💕

I have 4a/4b hair, high porosity, high density and i've been trying to grow my hair since February but I've been natural all of my life. My hair is pretty healthy but I really want long hair. My hair has been medium length/ armpit length for a long time. it's starting to get longer but i need more tips.
Hi love, definitely check out the videos in the Hair Goals series 💕💕

Type:4c
Density:Thick
Porosity:Low
Fave oils: Coconut oil and Olive oil
Favourite leave in:Can't Shea butter repair cream
Current routine: Protective style 2 months (moisturize and oil scalp) take out hair and wash
I have no problem at all with growing my hair every time I take out my braids I have so much new growth, the problem I have us retaining the length after I wash my hair my hair turns into a brick and is uncombable and causes so much breakage
Thank you so much for sharing beautiful ♥️ how about detangling your hair in the shower, completely saturate with water, soak your hair in conditioner working in sections finger detangle then comb if you feel to. Definitely watch my wash day routine and detangling video for more insight. ♥️
11:27 I am starting over again. I lost a lot but hopefully will gain it back even at my age.
I believe
I'm 4a 4b and 4c
Not sure of Porosity
My hair loves Grape seed oil, Rosemary oil, Coconut oil, and Olive oil
Type 4: don't really subscribe to this tbh, so I would just say coliy
Density: Thick
Porosity: High but not always keen on high amounts of protein
Hair regiment: lazy natural🙈 usually wash every 2-3 weeks, use a array of deep conditioners, pre poo, favourite deep conditioner Shea moisture
Favourite oil: Almond, Avocado, JBCO, olive oil. (Currently recovering from protein overload)..😩 like to finger detangle only, but my primark comb is the ONLY COMB I WILL USE!. Need to use more silk satin bonnets.. really bad 4 this.
Thank you so much for sharing beautiful ♥️ Protect that crown sis!!
I feel like my hair is not growing been the same length for long time you have beautiful hair i want my hair to grow faster and thicker xx
Your hair is always growing my love, if it’s been the same length then it’s breaking off. Definitely watch my Hair Goals Series to get to the root of the issue?
