Is coconut oil bad for curly hair? How to pre-poo use coconut oil in your curly hair and things you should know before you use or leave coconut oil in your hair. Before you go ahead and dump coconut oil all over your head, it’s essential you know the truth about coconut oil. While many reports that coconut oil is excellent for your hair - suggesting that it can promote hair growth, prevent dryness, help with damage etc. Today I share the many truths about coconut oil that may shock you, and leave you questioning if coconut oil really is all that good for your hair. My central question to you after watching this video is: have you adequately researched what you're putting in your hair?
Natural or not, it is CRUCIAL you understand what you're putting into your hair, what it is used for, and how to use it properly - do your research and become your own critic. At the end of the day, you know what's best for your hair.
Thank you guys so much for watching & I’ll see you next Tuesday!

FUN FACT: Coconut Oil is ALWAYS LIQUID in Caribean weather! 🥥💧😃 I live in the everlasting hot, humid puertorrican weather 🇵🇷 so coconut oil is ALWAYS LIQUID! I even put mine in a spray bottle and leave it at what would be the "caribean" room tempeture and it is always liquid. I have never experienced clogged pores or hair cuticules, build up from the oil, or even dryness because I personally use this oil after I am done with all the hair routine. I use it for added shine, specially when I refesh my hair after a few days of washing. It' amazing how much I have learned about Coconut Oil from another perspective!

I am so glad I stumbled upon your channel now that I've started my hair journey. I've learned so much already from you and I was a certified cosmetologist for years. I can't believe how wrong I was about coconut oil-it's something I've used literally every time I style curly, for the past 3+ years. It makes so much sense now why I'm not getting soft, defined curls, but greasy, wet looking curls that I almost always end up putting in a high messy bun. I've been so disappointed with my curls and I think using coconut oil daily is the reason I'm not getting the results I want. Thank you so much for creating this channel. PS You're also hysterical and even if your videos might not apply to me, I watch them anyway because you're so funny!

Thank you. This video really saved my hair (or what is left of it). I am an Indian and coconut oil is so popular for hair growth here. So I used to wonder, why is my hair feeling dry and falling so much after a pre-poo treatment of coconut oil with olive oil on my scalp and hair? I'd become so sick of noticing random hair strands on my clothes. I also learned that coconut oil just makes it easier for detached hair strands to fall off - which you definitely don't want in your food or in the kitchen. I followed Mell's method and things improved.

@lmsand62 5 лет назад

Hi just a comment about hair in the brush for us curly girls. Aside from breakage from brushing dry damaged hair...... We curly's do not brush our hair until wet, usually once a week for the wash. Humans usually loose 50 -100 hairs a day on average. Curly hair is not going anywhere accept into our curly little locks usually making some nice little snarls on the way. That is why we see so much hair in our brushes when we do brush. Sometimes this freaks people out and they think they are losing hair. If you are not seeing thinning at your scalp or breakage throughout your are all good. It is our normal process of shedding and regenerating . I love your vidoes! advice! and channel!

I don't know how I feel about it. I didn't grow up using coconut oil but when it was suggested to me my hair felt so much softer. I've also never had a problem with it clogging my hair or pores because I use it on my face for acne as well .... I guess if you go a month without washing your hair it could clog your pores. Also I think people are really heavy-handed with products because they think it's some miracle... I don't slap coconut oil all over my scalp I just use it on my ends to protect them from breaking off and I mix a little bit of it into my deep conditioners. My hot oil treatment isn't just coconut oil either it's 50% coconut and 50% olive oil because my hair loves olive oil. Been natural for about 4 years now and I honestly prefer olive oil over coconut oil ( because olive oil doesn't Harden) but my first two years being natural coconut oil was my lifesaver.

I have a dry scalp and read that applying olive oil to the scalp for 20 minutes and then shampooing it out was helpful. I tried this and my hair was quite happy afterwards. The olive oil gave my curls some bounce and spring and helped them form bigger clumps. My hair responds well to olive oil and avocado oil but hates coconut oil.

I like to use a wide tooth first and then I use my wet brush. Best combo ever!

Would black African castor oil do the same thing? Clog your pores? I was told to only put it at the roots but now I’m worried 😬

God i want your volume! I’ve tried so many things but my curls are 2c/3a and the length weighs down my roots very very easily. But my ends do so much better with a thicker, heavier cream. I’m working on it. Added in shorter layers and that helped a little. Anyone have suggestions?

I have the same issue and found when I use clips while drying works amazing.

@EmilyK1101 5 лет назад

coming from someone with mainly 3a hair, your hair will never have as much volume as mells. because she has tighter curls, they look like they grow out and up. our curls are bigger and will grow downward. its sad and i wish i had this volume as well but ive come to accept that i never will. clips at the roots while drying o help, but the hair will still get weighed down over the week

My hair has always been very flat at the top and very curly in the bottom but I find that you can get volume with the right haircut

I use a root volumizer foam, then pin & diffuse to dry. Once completely dry, remove the pins and your root volume stays! I can't find any root volumizing products in the curly section though...always in the non-curly section.

I wish my curls were as tight as yours :( I can get a lot of volume by haircuts but I've decided to wear it super long for some time.

I think coconut oil is decent in small amount because I used the Shea moistures coconut oil and coconut milk hair mask with a hot bonnet and god was my hair bouncy and soft. Which was surprising because I’ve had problems with other heavier deep conditioners. Edit: I’ve never like straight coconut oil on my hair or skin but this Shea moisture coconut oil and she’s moisture mask was real nice

I love coconut oil for my hair. I'll use it as a pre-poo hot oil treatment like Mell has done, but I use a lot more - literally saturate my hair with it - and I leave it in for several hours. I wash it all out with two shampoos, and I find my hair is a lot softer and my curls more defined.

@dancingappaloosa8926 3 года назад

@epit tan If my hair is very damaged (as it used to be), I pre-poo with coconut oil before every wash. But these days now that my hair is fairly healthy, I only do it once in a while. Yes, I only focus the shampoo on the scalp. But I shampoo twice. This should be enough to wash the coconut oil out as the shampoo travels down the hair shaft as you rinse it out.

@dancingappaloosa8926 3 года назад

@epit tan Personally I do warm it up a little before applying it because I find it works so much better when I do. Just warm it up slightly by placing it in a bowl over another bowl with boiling water. In terms of shampoo, I use a gentle sulfate-free shampoo. Lots of different types on the market, but I like getting one with cocomidapropyl betaine as the cleansing ingredient. x

My hair hates coconut oil & I noticed Deva Curl has the C.O. in their products, so I never used them, what do you think please Mell? Hugs, great video, thank you. . 😘💞🎵🌷🌺 🌸 😆 👏 👍 💫 🌟 💛

Hi I have to wear my hair in a bun with gel everyday for work. Can I prepoo with the gel in my hair? Or should I wash my hair first and then use the oil?

@capital.B 5 лет назад

I laughed so hard when you dip your hair in the bowl LOL

@jula187 5 лет назад

Clogging hair is the reason you should first spray your hair with some kind of moisturising mix (ex. water + honey) and then put oil on hair, so it will close moisture in hair. Then if you want to rinse it out, you just have to put some conditioner and leave it for about 10-20 minutes. Then just wash your hair normally and your hair will be amazing ;)
