I SWEAR by Kinky-Curly Knot Today Leave In/Detangler. It's got a bunch of those bottom half ingredients for slip and softness, but not the top stuff so it's definitely more a dentangler than a deep condition. It makes every detangling session a breeze and I'm glad to see my results backed up by science!

I have gotten very happy with Mielle babassu Oil Mint Deep Conditioner. I've been using it for the past two months. I must say, my dry hair has gotten soft, and for the past week it has stayed moisturized for one week without becoming brittle.

Even though I’ve been natural for years I’ve recently discovered that I’m low porosity and very protein sensitive. Your videos are helping me rebuild my regiment and your in the Uk which is even better. Thank you 😊

Protein sensitivity = your hair has enough protein. You only need to do a treatment once a month or once every two to three months or longer. If you're putting protein in your hair when it doesn't need it then you will probably think you're sensitive to it, i.e. protein overload.

I just love the way you talk! Fast, articulate, soothing. 👍🏿

TGIN Honey Miracle is my FAVOURITE deep conditioner. I have low porosity hair 🙂

For anyone on a tight budget, I found this which should be great for detangling. The slip is good. Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Conditioner Coconut.

But have it a shot and my curls were super defined and "springy" is how I like to put it. Loved the smell and texture of it as well.

I just recently found your channel and immediately subscribed~ your videos are amazing 👏 ❤

I have been struggling for so long between my daughter's hair(LP) and mine (HP) about the appropriate regimen without satisfying results😩 I've never come accross such helpful information in nappy french community. Despite the rapid accent, i made it. I took note (replayed the video again and again)😅😅 Thank you Afope! Take care you all😘

Jojoba Monoi natural deep conditioner by Eden is absolutely amazing. My hair has never felt so soft. After I use it, my hair is so manageable. It's easier to comb through and it smells great. My hair is low porosity and its in the type 4 category: 4a in the front and 4b in the back.

My holy grail as a fine haired - low porosity girl who is protein sensitive is the Mielle Mongogo deep conditioner. It’s just perfect. Never weighs my hair down but moisturizes the crap out of my hair. It is protein free! It’s bomb!!!! I try to get my protein in from my shampoos but a mild protein deep conditioner I love is the Eva NYC therapy session mask! It’s great 😊

What shampoos would you recommend?

A protein free/ moisturizing deep conditioner I've been using is the Biolage Hydra Source Moisturizing Hair Mask. It doesn't contain any heavy butters and has a lot of the ingredients mentioned e.g hydroxyethyl cellulose, propylene glycol, Aloe Vera juice, Cetyl esters, sunflower oil, etc.

Ma'am, where were you in 2018 when I began exploring natural hair!!?? I'm literally scribbling notes as fast as I can! Thank you for all your detailed videos and for giving your audience the truth!! (How I wish we could do Face-to-Face meetings again so that you can look at my hair and tell me what I need to do - haha :D)

What a great, very informative, super creative content. 👏🏽

Thank you for the information!!! I never knew this

Found your channel and I am natural since about 2011 and have low porosity hair. I went back to the old school queen Helene cholesterol conditioning cream. I went back to this because it always made my hair feel great and moisturized when I had relaxed hair. The same with the kera Kare brand their humectant shampoo and conditioner? My hair LOVES IT! So I’m watching different videos to see which natural hair care companies provide the same effects & also to learn more about the use of protein etc for low porosity hair. Thank you so much! 💛

Wow My friend sent me your video and I am glad she did. Cause woooow just wooow the details on your videos and the knowledge you have wow so for that beyond thank you 😊

thank you soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much for this video i was searching but couldn't find any article on google good thing ur channel talks on this stuff also what about low porosity and oily scalp

This is amazing information. I saw coco betaine as a surfactant in the Camille Rose Ginger Cleansing Rinse and now betaine listed in the As I Am Hydration Elation. Would the Cleansing Rinse still count as a protein-free shampoo or would this be considered a product to introduce after a while with a protein-free regimen? Thank you for being such a great resource for healthy hair!

My fav dc at the moment is Mielle mongongo oil hydrating deep conditioner

Shea moisture super fruit complex 10-in-1 multi benefit hair mask. It does have shea high up and hydrolized rice protein low down but its amazing.

Hairfinity balancing conditioner, I’m relaxed and it has moisture and protein keeps my hair strong and moist

Camille Rose Algae Renew conditioning mask for my low porosity, protein sensitive hair. No protein in this. I've also used the low protein conditioners mentioned, but will always follow that with a nice mix of light hot oils. I follow with knot today leave in. I haven't tried any film forming humectants but plan to try sealing with curly custard as I still battle dryness and wiry feeling hair.

NYM green tea and apple blossom butter masque is hands down the best deep conditioner I’ve ever used for my type 4 low porosity hair.And it’s only 8.99 @ Ulta

Love the alikay honey deep conditioner too

Thank you ❤️ so informative

this video is awsome! i almost bought the hydration elation but i will hold off until i finish my protein products. any other protein/aloe vera free deep conditioners you can recommend? i live in canada and dont have access to the others you mentioned

Miche indulge and Obia Babassu Deep Conditioner. Both are protein free and are fabulous!!

Wonderful video ❤️❤️ It would be amazing to see your perspective on natural homemade products, and common mistakes and or tips for those of us inclined to experiment with homemade natural DIY treamentst. For example, I'm very worried about weather or not certain homemade concoctions can actually last and keep well (Safely) in the fridge/outside the fridge without spoiling, and any other recommendations you can think of for those of us with an inner chemist wanting to make things that cater to our hair in particular.

Hi Afope, so do we not use regular conditioners, only deep conditioners?

I have low porosity hair and the Silicon Mix conditioner is one of the only conditioners that work on my hair, i wonder why?

Keep the 411 coming your awesome 👍🏾

I am quite low on the LP scale plus I have wiry hair which sucks ngl lol. The miche indulge DP does wonders for my hair, it has such nice slip too and easily penetrates my strands. My fav strengthening DP is the soultanicals hibiscus hair healer as it has great slip, is lightweight, helps with my sensitive scalp as well has having a great balance of moisture and amino acids. Plus it smells amazing! Other honorable mentions ORS replenishing conditioner (this is a protein DC, also do not get the new one with sweet orange one, the original) TGIN honey miracle mask (this has silicone in it)

How do I know which porosity hair I have?

Wait, I heard that coconut oil is not good for low porosity hair? I actually noticed that too once I stopped using it. But when I see coconut ingredients in products I’m not sure if I should get them.. And how many times should I use a protein treatment? Once a month or once a week?

I started with the Shea Moisture JBCO Strengthen and Restore Masque. My supply store ran out so I tried the Eden Bodyworks Coconut Shea Hair Masque and my hair loved it. Recently though, I thought I'd try some heat with it for better absorption or just go for something my hair absorbs better. I have my eye on As I am's hydration elation. Curious to see what works for other LP ladies!
