Just like you, i wash my hair once every two weeks. I also try to avoid applying hair products more than 3 times, cause the hair gets heavy and i don't like that feeling. This band wagon is one i should definitely hop on. My hair has been chin length my entire life and nothing works.
Hey Nina. I understand what you are saying, personally I wouldn't consider this a bandwagon, as it has been around many years, us American/UK girls (where ever you are lol) are just learning about it. If you do decided to try, we can do this together !
Yay! I’m so excited I probably will not be starting the powder until the middle of April due to me getting my ends clipped on the 4th. So I’ll have to wait until til the next wash day to start. I’m going to use medium to chunky braids because it seems to be the easiest from my research to use the powder on. I already have a black silk scarf that wear when I use the chebe butter so that will be my chebe scarf I use since it is messy and I’m not trying to stain up the whole house lol
Hey MCI! OOOOO I love that you are going to start this journey with fresh ends. I did as well. If the chebe powder is as messy as people report it to be, I will be wrapped up as well!
@@KlassicallyKept yesss ma’am. I believe it’s good to start with all healthy hair. And it also helps to see if the chebe will protect and seal my ends as well.
I started using the powder recently and mixed it with leave in conditioner and oil. The first time i applied, i wrapped my hair with plastic wrap, and i noticed 4c texture had loosened from the chebe. So far, i love chebe and applied on damp hair (clove and fenugreek).
TFS! I'm 3yrs into my microlocs journey and recently started using the Chebe oil about 2-3x a week for a scalp massage and on the length of my microlocs from this same brand. The oil is lightweight, has a lemongrass scent, and definitely locks in the moisture from my diy daily water spritz/leave-in. For me the oil has been a good addition thus far. I tend to wash my microlocs every 2 weeks or as needed.
At this time I am not putting anything on my scalp. In 2023 I was using Mielle's rosemary oil but it was irritating my scalp. I am giving my scalp a break.
Why not use clarifying or apple cider vinegar when shampooing in between chebe applications. Stretch is healthy, organic is good, and if you mix Chebe with oil, it's been said that it won't irritate the scalp. Just add a thick oil alike olive or even castor oil. Some people wear plastic shower caps under the night caps/wraps❣️👍
I use the actual powder on my hair after I wash it, and then a chebe grease when I moisturize my ends between wash days. Even with the actual powder in my hair, haven't had any issues with build-up.
One thing I do when using chebe powder is to sieve it thoroughly to remove the large particles. Those are difficult to wash out of the hair. The cigarette smell of chebe lingers for days and days, but I don’t mind it.
Just found your channel. I have a question about the CHEBE GREASE. That the women of Chad use. Exactly what is it and where can we buy it(or what are the ingredients)? You are such a classy and elegant lady. Glad to be a subdcriber.
You should look into Florishing hair care system of nyc products. I saw hair growth along with less dandruff zero frizz, moisture, etc within two weeks of using their mask and elixir. I normally add their mask product to my scalp and hair for However, it’s imperative to rinse the Ayuverda herbs off the scalp and hair extremely well. The ingredients they have in their products are nothing I’ve heard or seen. My hair loves it
@@KlassicallyKeptthank you for thoroughly explaining it so much that I fully understand it. No RU-vid person has been able to explain it this way. Thank you!!! Okay, but I just have one more question and I promise to not bother you again... when you untwist... are you detangling? Or do you wait till wash day only to detangle?
Definitely don’t use the powder on the scalp but with my experience with the chebe grease on the scalp. I use it on my scalp and on my kids scalp and it has definitely grew out the spots in my daughter’s hair that needed to grow in. And no they don’t scratch or complain about there scalp
Just started following you and learned about chebe. Your hair is gorgeous. Found chebe hair grease at Walmart. Will apply at my next washing in a week. Smells nice nothing overpowering. I have been wearing my hair naturally about two years now. All the gericurl is finally grown out. I tend to like cornrows as my hairstyle, recently went to trying the two stand twists, its so much easier and faster to style.
I have been binge watching all of your chebe videos (plus the finger detangling video 😅). My hair is opposite of yours- mine is fine thin (low density), "smedium" length for the longest. This year my goal is scalp care and lenth retention to break my bsl plateau. Simply put, I want the shortest area of my hair to reach past my chest when stretched. This series has been so helpful. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. ❤
I don’t like to speak on things I do not know about. My only concern with the Chebe and hair extension is the possible reactions that could occur. I don’t know if you are dipping the hair but people have been reporting weird reactions with current braiding hair. Also the scalp thing. Chebe is not meant to go in the scalp.
I am confused about your in between process of applying the chebe. Will you be taking your twists down each time you apply the chebe powder? Or, will you be applying it to your twists? Thanks much.
Hello Rina. Great question. I was trying not to confuse yall. I will take each twist out, add warm water, add my leave in, and the re-apply the chebe and re-twist my hair. In 4 days I will repeat.
