I love this video! I honestly love 20 minute videos the more information the better! 😊 I used to have an issue with the dryness that you mentioned, but I was able to find the corporate of the problem, which was two things--too much protein (not balancing moisture and protein products simultaneously) and not detoxing using bentonite clay to remove toxins and old products from previous times. What I do differently now, is I have a protein treatment day where I use moisture only products with zero proteins on wash day and follow up with my protein treatment conditioner, and then next time I have a regular wash day where my shampoos and conditioner are filled with hydrolyzed proteins, but then that’s it for my wash day and I go straight to the styling process after the conditioner has been rinsed. Every 6 months though, I use a bentonite clay to detox my hair and scalp from the environment and products I no longer use. This month I am due for one and I use the mud pack by Queen Helene. My hair has been soft and accepting my products better than ever before! 😊 A real game changer, thank you for this video!❤
You are one of the few that appreciates longer videos ❤. It’s a more relaxed and detailed timeframe for me to use! Totally agree about detoxification! Should have been in the video!! Alternative protein with moisture is one of the best ways to keep that balance nice! You are on to something ❤
The most important things I have taken, and adopted, from subscribing to your channel is the use of humectants. Glycerin water, aloe, and my new steam cap. All part of my new 2024 routine, due to your channel, and my hair is loving the moisture retention! I thank you for sharing some valuable tips.
You’re right! Everyone’s method doesn’t apply to all! I work out 5 days a week…most styles that last for others doesn’t last for me so i learned to listen to my hair and so far my method is good 😊 for me thank you for posting ❤
I haven't watched the whole video yet but product build up causes dry hair too. I had to use a clarifying shampoo followed by a moisturising shampoo to eliminate the dryness.
Excellent Point Coilry Dear!!! Ive been OBSESSED as of late with my ambunu/ground cloves diy hair gel! It's so PERFECT because it last about five or six days as a decadent humectant hairbliss gel and when it become ruunny, i just lean my head over the tub and pour it over my 3wk old diy fax locs!!! Making a new batch rn. Oh and i use grease and oil DAILY while protective styling and i use my kaolin clay based shampoo bar and it does the joab withrobbing my hair of moisture!!! Castor is an OG humectant Sis! 😊
Thanks for this video. You inspired me to finally buy some cold pressed castor oil. I've had some very authentic Jamaican black castor oil for over a year (still have left most of the 16 oz container I bought at a fair from a Rastafarian brother) and have resisted buying an 'inferior' version of castor oil even though this version is just not something I use often. I think a colorless, odorless version is simply what I need to get me to actually use it regularly. I definitely notice the difference between using a shower filter or not, for hair and also skin softness. I really dried out my hair using a semi-permanent hair dye about 6 months ago and still haven't come back from that. I plan to try a keratin treatment next weekend and hope that will do the trick.
Hope you do eventually try castor oil. doesn’t a keratin treatment change your hair pattern? would that not cause more dryness? hope it all goes well for your sake ☺️
@@CoilyDiaries the keratin I'm doing is an at home one that doesn't have any formaldehyde. It's not as strong as the one hairdressers use so won't give me as extreme results, but I'm mostly doing it just to make my hair more manageable. So far everyone I've seen who's used it has had their curls remain, so that's what I'm anticipating. I think the damage people get is from using too high a heat with them. They want the straightest possible look so use 450 for like 6 passes! It's not the keratin but the application method in that case, that's damaging the curls. I shall see though.
I like your routine though. It’s works on my hair. We have different hair types and textures but it still works for me. Please let me copy. My hair stays moisturized until my next wash day. I wash every two weeks.
That moisturising with heat is truly a game changer Thanks for sharing ✨💕 Do you have another alternative for an humectant spray other than glycerine? I've noticed its leaves my hair quite dry when i use it as a spray (i usually mix 1tbs glycerine to 1cup of water)
I have oily scalp but my hair actually dries fast from washing to often. My scalp loves wash days but my hair does not. I need a very good cleanser without stripping my hair.
Morning ❣️ Now sealing oils Castor oil is too heavy for my medium texture hair. What other oils can I use. Thank you ever so kindly for your help with keeping our hair healthy. God-Bless you 🪷 ❤
@@CoilyDiaries moisturizing more than usual and I use my whipped butter more than I used to so that my moisture is locked in…and getting back on my postnatal supplements. I’ve also been hydrating more than usual. Thought of deep conditioning more frequently like I used to but I don’t have the time
@@chipochongo I hear you! I had to get serious about the postnatal supplements. Glycerin, castor oil, moisturizing with heat and protective styling have really helped me🌺
@@CoilyDiaries i have to start moisturising using heat once a week, hope that will greatly help because my hair gets brittle. Am always moisturising either daily or every other day, which isn’t supposed to be the case. Thanks for those tips
