The craziest thing I ever put on my scalp is I pricked open 2-3 beta carotene capsules and put the contents in my grape seed oil and applied it to my scalp. End result... orangey/yellow scalp 🤣 Next.. I rinsed my egg hair mask with HOT water.. Results.. scrambled eggs 🙃
Ive been telling my clients and customers to apply their hair oil at night for ages. I just couldnt verbalize why. Now ill be able to send them this video lol. I also take my vitamins at night. I feel like they'll work best when my body is at rest and im not consuming foods 🤷🏽♀️
Don't they keep you up? I want to take mine at night for the same reason. But I feel like I sleep sooo light or not at all when I take them at night. 😕
Great information. Listen well ladies and gents. Serums at night. Terpenes function (essential oils) Rosemary Eucalyptus, Tea Tree etc loosen the hydrogen bonds and seeps into the hair below the surface. Check the position of the ingredients are in the ingredient list. Carrier oils facilitate protecting the hair, not penetrating. Remember they are the vehicle that carry the essential oils that are efficacious in the hairs growth and protection.
Currently I prepoo with the aloe vera plant as a prepoo. I cut the inside the aloe vera plant. Put the contains in my bullet. Mix it and put over my head and wash it out before I begin washing my hair. My ball spot is filling slowly but it's growing. It's still a little short but not breaking off.
The craziest thing I never did to my hair was once I was at a salon and another client there recommended urine as a hair growth solution, I smiled and said Wow that worked for you, huh? Note to self, keep earbuds in at salon.
Same here, when Inwas a teenager one of my friend's Dad who was into natural living tod me& another friend to use our own urine in our hair....We did it for awhile......no change....lol
Thanks for not going round and round the mulberry bush and getting straight to the point. I’ve honestly never put anything crazy in my hair. I have never been that brave. I was tempted to try Vick’s as I heard it grows your hair but I was scared and didn’t do it.
The craziest thing I ever did was the Cherry Lola treatment…it was like 709 steps and took 7 whole days…I was like “girl, you have gone off the deep end”
Where have you been all my life! I've tried everything and now, thanks to you, I'm figuring out what my hair likes and getting results! You are a treasure.
I notice that hair oils help my hair grow faster. Thank you for your advice!!! I love watching your videos as they are short and to the point. Keep them coming
I don't do anything crazy with my hair. I'm getting treated for scarring alopecia, so my hair is precious to me. Your content reminds me of what to look for in products, which is invaluable for successfully maintaining the health of my hair. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise.
Great Video! I just wanted to add that if you are using essential oils in any application whether it is oil base or water base it should be no more than 1%. the essentials oils are extremely potent and concentrated that a little will act as an active ingredient...most times ingredients at the bottom means very little effectiveness. but alot of ingredients can be low % but is an active ingredients and are very potent...they will do what they are supposed to do even though they are low % because of the potency...just thought I share that tidbit with you. Also extracts can have more of the essential oils % but they are distilled or steamed differently in which they can have an higher percentage and that way it wont cause irritation on the person using it...
I believe the holy Spirit sent me to your channel. I'm trying to grow my daughter's hair and he put it in me to grease her hair at night but I didn't know why, and now I come across this video of yours so thank you 😊
Only thing I use to moisturize my hair now is aloe vera juice and shea butter. I feel like my hair retains the moisture longer and my hair is easier to detangle and softer.
Girl I do the same thing! Just started this routine 3 weeks ago and my hair has been the most moisturized in the whole 6 years I’ve gone natural and it is sooo soft! Bout time! Lol 🤣
@@naape2596 It's called "Fruit Of The Earth" aloe vera juice. Im sure you could buy it frim other places but I got it from Walmart and Amazon. As far as the shea butter, I got it from a local beauty supply store but Im positive you could purchase online. Just search for African Shea Butter.
Hi. Can you go a video on grey hair? My hair is very attitudal. Some will curl and some is strait as a bone. I have tried sooooo many products.😩 Thanks so much for all the information. 🌈You are a heaven sent. Blessings to you. 🌹🎶🦋
My mom used to put Jamaican rum on my scalp after every wash when I was a kid some kind of weird ole remedy but weirdest I have used on my edges is Vicks vapor rub
My mother would not let me get my hair colored. So as a teen I put straight hydrogen peroxide on it to lighten it. It was like straw after. Orange straw.
Serious question: what if I'm nocturnal? Is the best time to apply oils still at night, or is based on what time you're going to sleep? Thank you! Love your video!
Craziest thing that I did was a mixture of rice water, onion juice, and garlic. I would use it sometimes every day. Honestly, it really jump started my hair growth. I had gone bald in some spots due to health reasons. Of course, it smelled awful and I would massage my scalp every day with it. I was working from home. I stopped b/c of the smell and amount of work in preparation after I received a full coverage of hair. I still use black rice water though.
Thank you for this video because now I understand my hair loss issue. My Circadian Clock is off and everything I am doing is out of rhythm. This is a wake up call!
Just found your channel today and I love the information you share. My niece swears by the Monistat and sulfur 8 mixture. She's used it on various occasions for herself and her daughters for bald spots or damage that caused their hair to be cut very short. It has worked great for her every time. I was planning on trying it this winter but am trying another product instead.
I just hate oiling my scalp at night for the sole reason that even though I'm not heavy-handed & rub the oil into my scalp, most times the oils will still leak through my satin night cap and stain my pillowcase, & oil is a biotch to get out of fabrics.
This is my 1st time seeing a video of yours. First off your hair is beautiful and that style is so cute. I love how informative and to the point you are. Your content was great! Look forward to learning more from your channel.
Thank you for being the test patient, I was thinking about doing that but was hesitant due to the stickiness of honey. But sorry you had to go through that.
Why not buy a deep conditioner with honey? In my opinion most DIY are a waste of time and a mess because they’re not formulated to penetrate in your shaft.
@@CurlyChemistry chiilleeee a small honey jar. I squirted it aaawwwllll over my head and thought that I could rub it in🤣🤣🤣🤣. Thank God it washed out easily
Your channel and videos are a true blessing to learn and to take care of the hair God gave to us! He did not make any mistake! Thank you for empowering us through knowledge! Blessings 🙂
years ago when i was younger , put essential oil straight on my hair / scalp .... no side effects at the time but years later i think it messed up my hair growth now im trying to recover from the damage whiles theres hair still there
STARIGHT to the point!!!! I love that not all the unnecessary yelling hello followers for 20minutes and then hands in behind bottles and silly faces. Just education and informative 👍
After reading a lot of çomment I noticed that some ingredients which should have been strained well to remove chunks where left in there to cause regret. Candid advice strain well before application my lovely family.
Thanks for the brilliance. Doctors prescribe stating or cholesterol lowering medications to be consumed at night because the body produces cholesterol at 🌉 night. Thanks 😊Thanks again 😘
Monistat is good on the scalp for dandruff and cradle cap. It's all the same fungus. The craziest thing I've done to my hair is substitute saladdressing for a hair mask when I didn't have mayo. That with eggs matted my hair something fierce. I could barely get a comb thru it. Took me about two hrs to wash it all out. Don't know if it was the water or my tears that finally got it clean 😆
I love how you get to the science aspect when giving hair info because then it really puts everything into context. 😊 Also what lip color are you wearing?
Thank you! I have spent so much money buying hair growth oils. Now knowing where in the ingredients lost would be the best oils will help me. Thanks again.
question: does cellular activity increase “at night” per say, like after dark, etc? Or does it just mean when you are actually asleep. For example, people who work third shift and sleep during the day
GIRL!! Not Monistat!!!🤣😂 Well, my confession is……. In my teens, I used CRISCO LARD!!👀🤷🏾♀️ Crazy part is that it actually grew my hair!!! I remember my grandmother telling me that this was common in her day. (1920’s and 30’s) The only reason I stopped using it was because my brother teased me saying I was walking around smelling like I was baking bread!!!!🤣😂🤣😂 Loved this video and thanks for sharing the info!! Rae❤️
Discovered your channel about a month ago, and I'm obsessed. I love learning about the scientific aspect of hair and thr ingredients that affect them. I have one question, how often should you pull your scalp? Does it depend on the product their specific instructions?
So I washed my hair with tide washing powder because someone told me I could get rid of my perm and go natural quicker. It's amazing that I still have hair.
Laundry detergent is very harsh and can cause severe skin irritations and damage to your hair and scalp. You can possibly end up at the dermatologist office over time. Try using pure essential oils like Rosemary, Peppermint, or Lavender with distilled water on your scalp and hair to remove the relaxer. It's natural and healthier for your hair. Rosemary and Peppermint stimulates the blood in your scalp so your hair will grow back longer and healthier. It will also keep your scalp clean.
I washed my hair with Tide, to take the perm out...it worked but, it stripped every bit of oil/nutrients/life/body out of my hair!!! I'll never do that again😄
I assume that fine hair cannot become coarse, and vice versa, but can fine hair become stronger/healthier with the application of stimulating oils? Can the shaft itself become thicker? Still fine, but a stronger, healthier shaft? Thanks 😊
You know I started using hair serums and the hair is growing but just a serum twice a week. I have used vegamour, nutrafoil, ordinary, ginger tea serum. All of them have helped. But the surprising thing is my scalp never itches, I also do not have Dandruff issues anymore at all. No matter how long I go without washing. And I can go three weeks, no washing with little breakage and no dandruff when I use serums twice a week. I might sprits my hair with rosewater or use a leave in, or grees eor Shea butter. But I did all that before. but the real changer for my scalp has been serums.
Thanks for your great hair info.Normally put hair oil in the morning but I'm going to switch it to the night time for better results.Every thing is crossed🤞🤞🤞lol
I see what you mean but I would say if you forget at night then putting it on in the morning could still help. Now that circadian rhythm definitely feel that.
Lovvvve your videos!!! I’ve learned so much! I do have a question regarding moisture vs hydration. When someone with high porosity, medium density, medium thickness is experiencing extremely dry scalp, how can you help that? And even when you clarify, protein treatment, deep condition, when/do you incorporate a hot oil treatment and if so which step in the wash day process do you add that in?
I have been using an onion diy mixture now, but I like it!!! It’s suppose to promote growth and thickness. Onion is known to block dht! It has horsetail herb, saw palmetto, coconut oil, peppermint oil,rosemary oil, horsetail herb,black cumin seed powder ,sunflower oil, yellow onion!
@@CurlyChemistry I guess I can try a lighter oil and possibly a lighter hand. But even so oil applied from the morning some still soaks through my bonnet and gets on my pillows.
Hmmm...I work nights, so I usually do my oil routine in the mornings when I get off. Great information, but now I'm concerned as to how this will affect me since I don't work "normal" hours. Thank you so much for this information!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I haven't tried anything out of a norm accept rice water, onion juice, tea rinses and or (ayurvedic practices). Yet, I don't think it out of the norm since this has been used for centuries. Maybe some people find this weird?
You should really speak on the debate going on between natural hair specialist who claim you only need to shampoo, condition and use one styling product weekly and no oils and butter vs the traditional natural hair girls who use oil and butters and deep condition and all that
It’s a trend, and an illogical one at that. Those jumping on the oil-free bandwagon are probably going to experience more dryness, see more damage, and have either a plateau or reversal of length retention over time.
Here for It It’s just all so confusing because these are licensed hair cosmetologists and licensed natural hair specialists who have been telling ppl for years not to use oils. And that lots of water is how you hydrate your hair. But then I think back to how my ancestors in my tribe used oils in their hair, I just don’t know
Here for It I’ve seen a lot of people try Black Girl Curls method which is no oils and butters and they say they have healthier hair but I don’t see any growth 😂 and then again these stylists are like you have to come multiple times a year for a trim, I’m just like are y’all saying that to make money?
@@janek.3347: I began my journey as a last ditch effort to see if I could really grow my hair long. Before that, I would use an oil-based cream on my ends only once after shampooing and conditioning. At the time, I usually wore my hair natural and got it flat ironed every two or three months. When it wasn’t straightened, I styled it with water and gel every day. But my length was at a plateau. Even when I wasn’t going to the salon at all I still wasn’t retaining much length. One of the first changes I made aside from minimizing heat was oiling my hair, especially my ends, first twice, then three times a week, then every day. I immediately noticed a difference in length retention. It’s not so much the scalp that needs oil, it’s the strands. Especially your ends. Pampering your ends will make a world of difference.
