This is so helpful! I recently went through postpartum hair loss, so whatever hairs I have left I am very interested in preserving! 😅 Your written summaries of tips in the video are great for screen shots in case I need to review later. Appreciate that! 🎉

Ooo so timely, Doc! I've been going back & forth on cutting my hair. I haven't had a professional cut in over 7 years. 🫣 I don't want a stylist chopping it way down just because of split ends. Thank you for this!

@christinemack2153 8 месяцев назад

Thank you, very helpful and you look beautiful. I love Unite and Virtue products as well. I use a wide tooth comb when hair is wet and seems to help.

@Melissa-cy9se 7 месяцев назад

I learned so much, thank you! I’ve been following you for over a year and I really appreciate all of the advice. Your hair is beautiful by the way. Is there any specific hair care advice for curly hair? I feel like curly hair is a whole different world and even though I’m in my mid 30s I still feel like I can’t get my 3b curls right.

@marlenegadea890 8 месяцев назад

Loving the hair videos!! Ive needed some product recommendations! Do you have any shampoo recommendations?

@Shelly-2-11 8 месяцев назад

Do you have any thoughts on keratin treatments/ brazilian blowouts for curly hair? They help my hair be so much more manageable with it taking 5% of the styling time and allow me to use way less heat on my hair. Leaves my hair looking shiny and healthier (even if just superficially) and really boosts my confidence about my appearance.

@memorydandaroy1618 8 месяцев назад

Dr Sam Excellent video So from the info that you have provided I’m assuming That clear glazing/ glosses To add + just Shine to your natural colour Are Also not good ?(?) 🧐

@jackierinier5046 8 месяцев назад

Hi Dr Ellis, thank you so much for sharing all of your knowledge with us, we learned so much from you! Quick question. I am endlessly looking for hair products to make my hair appear less drying. I just looked at the ingredients to the unite detangler, and it has so much alcohol in it. Doesn’t that kind of negate the good properties or ingredients in the products? I guess if it works it works I’m just curious about long-term use.

@jaymieblossom 8 месяцев назад

Loved it! I’m buying those products you recommended! 🩷

@justinefenner5820 8 месяцев назад

This was a really amazing informative video thank you so much! I learned so much. I am a dermatologist and was interested in learning about how these “bond repair” products work but wasn’t sure where to start. What sources did you use for the content of this video?

@DrSamEllis 8 месяцев назад

Hi Justine! Thank you! Often I discuss directly with the company (by reaching out) or the cosmetic chemists that work in the hair space. And there are some amazing hair textbooks!

@weronikafrodyma1264 8 часов назад

Thank you for another brilliant video!❤ I was wondering if there is any chance that using retinol on the face can somehow lead to hair becoming dryer? In the past 4 weeks my hair suddenly became much dryer than before and it happend in the similar time frame when I increased my use of retinol... Maybe its just a total coincidence but I was wondering if there was any data about that.....

@GracieLou88 8 месяцев назад

Hi, Dr. Elis - Would you do a video specifically on hair loss?! I’m in my mid-30’s & I already feel like my hair is thinning! 😩 I also have noticed that whenever I gently comb/brush my hair or wash my hair I see more hair fallout/“shedding” too! 😭 It’s hard to know if it’s because of stress or genetics. And I’m curious about different products to try too. Thanks for your input! 💛

@MrsMcGwire 8 месяцев назад

Yes, yes, yes! Please. There are so many advertisements and supplements and it’s all very confusing.

@DrSamEllis 8 месяцев назад

Hi! I have an in-depth RU-vid video on hair loss!

@lisac.8266 8 месяцев назад

I have multiple contact allergies including fragrance but a new oil showed up on my CAMP list. SEEN Magic Serum. Would love any opinions on this product. I have fine hair that is a bit below the shoulders and “aging”. I am 67 and never heard of a patch test until in my mid 50’s. Would have prevented a lot of grief in my younger years. 🤣 Thanks for all the info. 😎✌🏻

@lavayuki 8 месяцев назад

My hair is extremely bleach damaged, so I had to cut it off to super short. I use k18 and olaplex but they don't do much, `I think the extent of my damage is too much so I think I just have to grow out my own colour.

@sydneyschulz4867 8 месяцев назад

Which hair brush do you recommend?

@dianarusnov292 8 месяцев назад

LOVE the Virtue Healing Oil. Mostly for the scent though lol

@summersadie3687 4 месяца назад

Dr. Ellis, you mention that "Blunt hairstyles tend to be more prone to split ends" and I am curious as to why that might be.

@fadiaabdo1187 8 месяцев назад

Hello Dr. Do you think its safe to use argan and coconut oils for hair growth during pregnancy? thank you

@abbigailalexander5535 7 месяцев назад

What are your thoughts on the Zuvi hair dryer (wish I knew more than “patented LightCare technology” as a consumer) in regards to damage vs a traditional hair dryer utilizing just heat?

@NerakGreen 3 месяца назад

I really wish there were drugstore suggestions for these super health ion things that I can get in CVS or Walmart. Any suggestions for option that aren’t kinda MLM-looking?

Hi Dr. E - I am totally lost in the great blow-dry debate. I thought that the research is that blow-drying keeps your hair cleaner and prevents split ends? I blow dry on a no heat setting. I have ridiculously fine hair that doesn't grow and split ends of course with my unblessed situation. I've stopped coloring (waiting for it to grow out), I use olaplex 7 and peptide end repair and leave in conditioner after washing etc. So blow dry or air dry as the final step?

@ShannOliver 8 месяцев назад

I always wonder - what kind of thermal/heat protectant can I use on already dried hair before using a hot tool? For example, I’m on second day hair and I want to curl it…should I just spray my Unite protectant and start curling (even though it’s damp from the spray?)? Help! Lol

@breezie01 2 месяца назад

i feel like i get split ends just by breathing. they literally come out of no where and i'll never be able to have long healthy hair from it. i don't use heat , dye, or towels. so it gets this bad just from brushing?????

@breezie01 2 месяца назад

i don't use tight hair styles either 😢 i feel like it's my genetics lol

@rob3rta_a 23 дня назад

try to use conditioners with proteins and oils and shampoos (based on your scalp type)! have a routine and use a hair mask once a week as well as having a leave in and a hair oil to protect your ends and lock in moisture! try to find your hair porosity and create the hair care routine based on that. for me all of these things helped my hair retain length more and grow faster. 😊

@thatonestupidmistakeyt2709 6 месяцев назад

i have struggled with splitting and picking at my ends for a while, do you have any advice so that i can stop?

@dinadinamohmmad1237 Месяц назад

Mine came from brushing as a kid I brushed it badly n I still did in 2023 so I physically ruined it now I’m this close to dusting my hair is 2 steps to get my hair healthy I also straighten my hair safely with Clara air brush thingy I use anti dandruff shampoo on scalp only I barely use it tho also I have a lot of build up on my scalp so I’ll use a clarifying shampoo THEN AFTER I DO ALL TAHT MY HAIR WILL BE HEALTHY !

I only wash my hair two times a week is it okay to only use a hair mask instead of conditioner after both washes ?

@DrSamEllis 8 месяцев назад

Generally yes if you don’t find that it weighs down your hair or makes it prematurely oily or greasy!

@lalasee2873 3 месяца назад

Can I use essential oils instead of industrial products Or is it damaging?

@DrSamEllis 3 месяца назад

It’s not likely to be damaging, but it also may not be helpful

@DT2125 8 месяцев назад

Hi dr.Sam!! I have a question… If I only wash my hair twice a week, is it OK to just use a hair mask those two times and skip conditioner altogether?

@Stardust675 8 месяцев назад

I had the same question?? Yes please??

@franchescamayialmonte1303 8 месяцев назад

As a curly hair woman I cannot relate to not washing my hair strands. I do not recommend washing it like you are in a Garnier commercial, but you have to remove all that gels/creams. I believe we usually leave around a cup of styling products in.

@lalasee2873 3 месяца назад

I'm new to curly hair styling My hair is 3c and I'm struggling fr with clashing information I thought it strands can't be washed but also you have a point what will remove all of that product

@franchescamayialmonte1303 3 месяца назад

In my experience hair defines the better when is properly clean (not necessarily stripped). I would say if you hair get wet easily you can get away with a lot, if your curl pattern doesn’t show much while washing it you may need to go a little more intense with the cleansing step, but I wouldn’t suggest not washing your hair I suggest @manesbymell (more so if you hair wets easily, but she is good either way) if your hair doesn’t show the curl easily look for this video “Detailed wash day routine for definition and Hydration 30 day hair detox for @itstruedestiny (I haven’t watched her for long but hair routine is somewhat similar to mine)

@BlossomWhite877 2 месяца назад

Is castor oil good for hair?

@rob3rta_a 23 дня назад

yes actually its a moisturizing and an oclusive hair oil but its kinda heavy if you have low porosity hair! castor oil in hair care products is actually great!
