Currently sitting with conditioner on my head watching youtube about to wash my hair. I've recently found Keracare Detangling shampoo. It is so helpful for me with this transitioning (1year) hair, so I thought I'd share
Just stumbled upon this video. Yesterday, I had my hair washed, did a green tea rinse and moisturized generously with a leave in conditioner. I apply some Ayurvedic oil with coconut oil into the leave in conditioner. Hair feels so good and still moisturised. I have extreme hair dry and loads of breakage. Just started my hair growth journey. Thanks for sharing.
I need to detangle my hair today, and no lie, I'm kinda dreading it because I've left it loose and let it get dry 😔😭. I was just really busy. Think I will use oil & my fingers to put it in big twists tonight so I can wash it tomorrow. Thanks for the tips as always ✨🤗
What has helped my hair to retain moisture is by tucking in my platts inside the base of them at the root and keep my hair covered to help lock in the moisture. I don't manipulate my hair until time for me to wash it. Washing and detangling my hair in sections is beneficial. Your braids look nice on you, Pi. Thanks for sharing 🙏🏿💐💜😀
You always pick some thought provoking topics and you've me thinking, "Why not normalize our hair?" What's wrong with our choices? Why do we constantly give in to European standards of beauty? It's okay to wear our hair however we want, but more importantly to love it in its completely natural state. No extra products or gels. Beauty starts within and we've got to love ourselves. I was 15 and riding a city bus. A young boy of about 10 or 11 years old threw a mason brick at my window. Only minutes before something told me to remove my 3 year old brother from that window. When I turned the brick shattered my window and I was seriously injured and scarred. Cuts, everywhere, the eyes, the face, a hole in my face on the left side above my mouth and below my nose. A terrible injury that I mourn. I did nothing to cause the injury and I have memories of a face before the tragedy and the face after the tragedy even though it wasn't a face to launch ships, I would give any most anything to have that face back. I've spent 3 x times the amount of time with the 2nd face. now, but I still long for the 1st one. I had to learn to love the 2nd one with makeup and without. I had to learn to love the scars as well, now as I age, I've have to learn to love the wrinkles and imperfections. Yes, God is good and he healed my face and things are subtle, but I had to learn to love myself in that natural state. So, yes we have to learn to love our hair, also unconditionally. Allow other women the grace with our hair texture to love theirs the way that they want too! Without judgement. Because, unless we are making a fashion statement, we would mourn every little curl and knot if those strands were lost to us forever through baldness. Suddenly, those troublesome textured curls would be beautiful and cherished by us, but it would be too late. Thanks for the reality check and it was done in the nicest of ways! ♥
For me, I always prefer to detangle before shampoo. It helps the cleansing nature of the shampoo not make the tangles worse. It also allows me to put my hair into super chunky twists to shampoo in. Also, try to make sure hair is pre-stretched before detangling/washing. Nothing major, just a bun will work. Keep hair moisturized . Dryness makes tangles so much worse. Trims help with tangles so much. Stretched styles help so much with tangles. Now, wash n gos can be worn, but NEVER let them get dry and use a strong holding gel. People want soft, touchable hair, but strong gel casts really help decrease tangles because it freezes the separated, clumped curls in place. I personally cannot wash the hair all loose. It has to be in a minimum of 2 big sections, though I prefer 4. Washing the hair loose adds at least 20 minutes to my detangling time.
Thanks for the tips ! Definitely will use some of these. I did notice that about bonnets that is shrinks your hair up more and puts it a weird shape. So I’ve switched over to the slap caps and they work better for me .
You actually can wet detangle from the roots, but you have to use a comb, and you must have a TONNE of slip under running water. But with a brush, yeah, from the roots doesn't work for me. At a certain length I think Wash and Gos get very, very tangled, so I just have to mentally prepare myself (OR wear the wng for only a few hours and braid it up before it fully dries 😅) I do wash my hair loose sometimes but only if I'm not trying to detangle 🫢 My ends are still so bad 😅😅 Cutting them slowly but surely. My no 1. tip is, don't panic. Sometime the hair just knots up irregardless of how careful you're being, and at that point you have to take deep breaths, slow down, and then take the time needed to undo the knot, perhaps cutting it out if necessary. But panicking and continuing to try to detangle while in a distraught mental state will create MORE tangles. Some really great tips here!
@@CoilyDiaries I use a modified version of the method promoted by Ladosha Wright, but I also comb my hair about once a week so that might make a difference 🤔 🤔 (I like it because it's much gentler on my ends and I noticed my shed hair ball decreased once I implemented that method of detangling.)
@@esthertjones Jane Carter, who was featured on that podcast, said to detangle from the ends up.( so does my sister who's a cosmetologist of 20+ yrs) Sorry, but, I disagree with ladosha on the detangling.
Can I wash, deep condition, moisturize etc. my hair at the 3rd month in the cornrows and then take it out the next day to make the cornrows for the next 3 months please?
I can't wait to try out this glycerin for hair moisture, 1 ratio of glycerin to 5 ration of water. Will be back here to give my feedback after trying it out. Thank you for the video
These are so on point 💯🌟 I realise my life has gotten busier so I can't the time for finger detangling that I used to, but I actually miss it. Hope to re-incorporate it fully again by the end of summer.
@@CoilyDiaries by the way I started my channel here on YT & even though hair is not my intended niche I made a video about colouring my Grays & mentioned your channel in it. I had forgotten to tell you. Check out that video when you have some time. It's very amateur 😅, not asking you to subscribe cause my niche is for women in menopause. 💞
You are so right. Each person's hair is different. I loved how moist and manageable and defined my hair was with glycerine! But somehow after only 1 month it relaxed my curl pattern to the point that I had to put a protein treatment and it did not revert back. So I leave that to others and it's ok! We are ALL different!
Jehovah God the Creator knows what's best for each of us as individuals (Psalm 83:18; Prov 3:5,6; Matt 6:8,9,33; John 17:3; Rev 4:11) Different cultures deal with their hair and view it in various ways. Wherever people are in the world, what's available to them to take care of their hair and scalp they use even if it may be viewed strange in other cultures. What works for some cultures they may have stuck with from generation to generation. When other contradictory viewpoints are made manifest to other cultures and a change in the thought process of how to manage the hair, that's when the trouble begins to rear its ugly head. There are over 8 billion people worldwide and you are a different person in each person's mind, but we are all accountable to only 2 persons-Jehovah and Jesus His Son (John 17:3; Rom 14:12). So if they don't have a problem with how a person maintains their hair and scalp then it's not a problem. As Jesus said "let her alone. Why do you try to make trouble for her?"-Mark 14:6 Thanks for sharing. 💐😀💜🙏🏿👍🏿
My hair needs oils and most of all butters. So I don't listen to the nay sayers. Like u said all of us are different and need different things. Thanks for sharing.
Don't feel about for saying the truth in your review. I never tried the leave in conditioner from Melanin. I have the shampoo, strengthening conditioner and butter. I've been more conscious about chemical ingredients in products and although, I love the butter and the deep conditioner they contain quite bad chemical ingredients. I am a bit disapppointed with Whitney because I would have expected her to be more conscious about ingredients (like Ecoslay for example). Only the shampoo and oil are good in terms of ingredients :(
Trimming hair regularly makes detangling easier for me so i kind of agree with the 3-4 months trimming,just a little bit of it or even if its just search and destroy method is fine to reduce knots and tangles at the ends
Oils and butters are what brings the softness to the hair and smoothness after you put in the moisturizers or your water spritz. Without the oils and butters, your hair would not only feel harder, even though it is hydrated, but I feel like it would also evaporate faster. The point is to “seal” the hair. You need oils and butters for that. Or at least a gel, which is a good sealant as well from my experience. I know it’s not an emollient , but it does the trick.
I will try to start finger detailing. I trim my ends often due to the stringy ends and that is the reason I don’t retain length. I usually keep my hair in 2 braids and wear stars practically every day to match my outfits. I should have bra strap hair but it is a little past my shoulder.
Stringy ends are not necessarily unhealthy. The hair at the back of your head should reach lower down your body than the hair at the top, especially if they're the same length. (Like a track-and-field relay, they're not starting at the same point, you see.) You should make sure to keep your ends (over-)moisturized and tucked away from the elements. Also, check for actual split ends.
My trim schedule is actually what made me start my finger detangling no comb challenge. I was feeling the need to trim too often and/or trim more than I preferred. I personally don't like the way my hair looks or feel with stringy ends. So far it's going very well. I gave myself a great trim 6 weeks ago and used a comb for the last time that day.
@Eveningbreeze721 Update this thread around the 3-month mark, if you can. I started an "absolutely no comb" challenge myself a little over 30 days ago. I've seen length retention already, but not really noticing any thickening. Thin hair may be my lot in life, though.
I MUST HAVE oils and diy spritzs in my hair. I agree with you they are following influencers that don’t know what they are talking about. Just like people say coconut is good for the hair, doesn’t work for me. Just like people love aloe vera for the hair aloe vera doesn’t really work for me unless I put it in a hair mask with other ingredients.
Aloe vera for me is good for detangling. I’m not sure about it as a hair mask by itself, but I know I use it as a part of a hair mask with other ingredients like you.
Hi Coily diaries since i have been learning from your moidration videos, glycerin and castor oil my hair has changed drastically from dry and brittle to soft and strong. I download ALL videos because i know i will learn something new. I now enjoy my natural hair and i keep it in cornrows usind my own hair. Thank you so much beautiful lady. I'm from SOUTH AFRICA ❤
I’m gonna do this. I’ve been doing twist for the past 2 months. Her method is good. I’m gonna do it. I want to have something where I don’t touch my hair but not use weave.
Drop the 🎤,girl🎉😂👏🏿👍🏿 Let's normalize being NORMAL. Everyone can't be Great all the time except Jehovah God (Psalm 83:18; Daniel 9:4; John 17:3). In this imperfect world humans will never be perfect no matter how hard they try to be. Perfection will only be enjoyed forever by obedient righteous mankind in paradise on earth under heavenly kingdom rule coming at any time now after Christ's millennial reign is over. (Psalms 37:11,29;83:18; Matt 6:9,10;24:3,14,42,44; 1 Cor 15:24-28; Rev 21:3-6) Life be life'n so let's normalize not putting on more burdens on top of the loads each person carries already. (Gal 6:5; Deut 1:12) Thanks for sharing 🙏🏿💐😀💜
Your hair is beautiful❤ Stay away from products with protein. Protein although helpful, should be used scarcely and only when necessary. Protein tangles wooly hair, making it difficult to detangle. When your hair is that long and that healthy, it's all about moisture, moisture, moisture. Moisturizing products during your shampoo and after your shampooing helps with detangling. Also take smaller partings. I hope this helps.
