I love the way you broke everything down it made so much more sense to me this way!

Wow. What a gem of a channel. This guy deserves to blow up.

the best hair video I have ever seen on here. Thank you?

He is a better explainer as some of my Professors. Love his channel.

I’ve watched many videos and he really does is research, respect.

this video was probably the answer to all my questions. GENIUS

Recently due to severely damaged hair, I cut it to bob short. I hope i can grow it back healthier. This video is so helpful for a beginner like me. Thank you so much!

Really insightful explanations and great delivery!!

*Travis, you're such a lifesaver! For the majority of my life, I rocked a high and tight due to job requirements. Now that I retired, I've decided to grow my hair and beard out. I've been binging on your scientific videos about haircare; I never realized how uninformed I was when it came to hair.*

i've watch this 2 times already. thank you for all the lessons.

Your explanation is easy to understand, thank you!

Thanks mang for the research and info

Love ur content it legit helps💯

I am getting addicted to yours video. Good work brow

Love your vids man!! Thanks!!

Thank you! My hair is almost dead right now and I needed this! I recently dyed and bleached my hair and it’s been crying since! My hair always has been very porous and if there was strong thing in the air for example smoke from incense when I would get away from it my hair would smell like it. Thank you for this!!

Thank you so much for your information... They were to the point.. ❤️❤️❤️

Hands Down The best hair care KZreadr, We Love you Trav

Wow. You saved my hair in one night! I was always confused about the concept of Protein, Moisture, and Porosity, but you explained it so simply and thoroughly. I was frustrated that my hair would still be poofy and frizzy even after using moisturizing products, but now I noticed that I literally have no protein in my hair products, so I over moisturize my hair. And I thought putting water on it every day would help 😅 After using a shampoo and conditioner with protein, and doing with my regular moisturizing wavy hair routine, it looks so much better. Thank you for this video.

Firstly thank you for all the concise well presented information your channel has to offer Kudos to you good sir. I find myself here after 4 years of hair grow out, strangely not due to a hair length goal or anything though. I just got tired of going to the barbers and caring about how my hair looked and before i know it a year had passed and that "awkward stage" was well an truly over (bless up my beanie hats). Now my hair is down to my waist and not in the best of shapes as this whole time I've pretty much neglected it with the "tie it up and forget about it" approach. Sure i wash it but there is no routine i stick too at all save trimming an inch off the ends when i find myself sitting on it (gotta say this hurts when it happens). Think it's about time to take better care of my locks, thank you again for pointing me in the right directions.

Really well explained ✨ Great video 👍🏻

I'm really appreciating your videos... even though I'm a girl 🤣 They are thorough and first time that I am finally starting to understand my hair frustrations. I have fine, wavy, post-chemo, frizzy, crazy hair. I have straightened the life out of it for years... plus it's coloured. I have just ordered the recommended shea moisture protein set and the living proof frizz set as I now know that it is moisture overload, instead of feeding the beast. I think right now I have high porosity, fine and low density hair. How long can I expect balance and what would be a good set to get for balanced hair.... it also freaks out with coconut rich products.

Very nice research. Deserves a like 👍 and comment to boost the algorithm

WOWWW, I’ve been going in a serious spiral the last few days to figure out my hair type If it’s protein or moisture overload I’ve watched over 100 videos etc etc , came across yours and your PDF for “whats your hair type” just saved me! Thank you, thank you for taking your time to design that for people like me. 🫶🏽🫶🏽

I just want to say THANK YOU, you broke moisture/protein balancing down very plainly.

ONCE AGAIN, A Home Run! I'm glad, you explained about washing your hair too much! My OLD shampoo, was a big culprit! I'm switching over to the Brand you spoke of, because of SUPER FINE hair! Think *Spiderweb!* 😳 Thanks again for the WORK & RESEARCH, you do for All of US!!!

After growing out my hair a few years ago, it was noticeably very frizzy, tried everything, best I found was Redken Frizz Dismiss line, but what a pain so many products to get only a barely satisfactory result. So I finally tried a full Keratin treatment, what an incredible difference. Its not for everyone, but now I just get up and go.... comb/brush no need for styling products, wash it twice a week. Truly life changing.... Just an fyi... for those who are debating trying it.... one important note, your hair is much straighter afterwards... no more poorly formed curves and crazy waves (never could achieve decent curls or waves anyway

Halt_Yipp I like Brazilian blowout treatments. Kills the frizz for 10-12 weeks but unlike keratin doesn’t make it bone straight. I keep most of my waves with it. I have never found any other way to eliminate my frizz.

Hey Trav Excellent video I think it is one of the best you have done My best suggestion is that you write a good book about everything you have to do to get long and healthy hair in men. Thank you very much for sharing Regards

Thanks Trav thanks to you I finally realize that my hair is over moisturized, gonna buy me the OGX Biotin & Collagen Shampoo & Conditioner. Really hate the feeling of my hair, it feels gunky and it takes hours to dry.

Wow! This was super informative! I think I now know the source of my hairs issue! Thank you so much!

68 years old, fine dense 2c white hair to my waist. To keep my high porosity hair in check (non full washing, conditioning days), before I brush/comb my hair I split it in two and dampen the bottom half with a fine mister. I then treat each damp half with 2 drops argan oil, 2 drops grape seed oil, and two drops hyaluronic acid, which I rub together in the palms of my hand, work into hair, and comb/brush. I let it dry into its natural waves, and it is good for the day.

I know your videos are directed at men, but I love the science based information. Subbed.

Great video. Loved how you explained things. I wanted to know do you do the elasticity test before you wash your hair or after?

god this is helpful af. science is that good shit. good job

This channel deserve more subs!!!

Cheers mate

Hi, Thanks u explained the process very well👍👍 I need help.... Plz tell some good hair mask n conditioner for dry hair. I really need them.

First comment and I'd like to tell you, you're doing a GREAT Job !

Brahh! I have been watching a bunch of your videos for my INFO on these hair stuff and in all of them I found at least 4 voice cracks! I used to have this problem a few years ago and I kinda figured a simple solution for it! The reason number 1 could be your water temperature! I used to drink very cold waters and that caused me voice cracks like hell! The reason number 2 could be this that you are not drinking enough water when you are speaking for a long time! Next time have a glass of water behind the camera and every 4 to 5 minuets have a drink. Hope that helps! thanks for the video..thumbs up

Thank you TRAV WHITE.

Please can you do a video on porosity hair types?

Hi Trav, so apparently I have a fine hair texture which would mean I need more protein, but my hair is also low porosity, so I am not quite sure if I need more protein or moisture, probably something in between? So I guess the perfect shampoo would be the OGX Hydrating Tea Tree mint?

Pretty sure I overloaded my hair with protein! 😬 it was so brittle and felt like straw. I clarified it and it feels soooooooooo much better.

What’s a good shampoo and conditioner for coarse hair that could be bought at Walmart?

little tip for the hair test: if you have long hair, try it on different sections. for me its perfectly balanced near the roots but if i take from the lengths/ends it snaps. makes sense because that's also the part that looks dry af 😅😭

What's your opinion on the aphogee treatments and leave ins??

eat lots of oils in salads,sweat it out,do half washes once 2 weeks(glob of conditioner with a dot of shampoo,its fair and will clean with zero strip risk

Hey, Trav ! Can people with fine hair use argan oil even if the hair is not naturally dry?

I have a mixture of every texture in my hair. I could pluck several hairs from my head and each one would be completely different. One would be pin straight, medium width, and golden blond, one would be wavy (4A), medium width and redish brown, one would be loose curls (3A), very very thick and jet black, and one would be extremely curly coiley (4C) very thin, and platinum blond. I have never really figured out my stupid hair!

You only use a blow drier with a diffuser on curly hair otherwise just air dry. Use leave in conditioner to keep your curls soft

Hey Trav, How are you? What are your thoughts of Olaplex products?

According to this video, i have a good balance. Because when i stretch my hair strand, it stretches and then just bounces back. It doesn't break or anything. But my hair is still pretty dry which sucks. I am also medium porosity. Honestly no matter how much i read or watch about this, i still don't understand. Because it's explained differently everytime :D

Hey Trav! Totally love your videos. They've really helped me a ton in making my hair healthier and giving my more confidence as a guy with long hair. I specifically really like how you're so science based! One concern/question I do have though, that I'd love to see you do a video on, is who is funding these studies? If, for example, Neutrogena donated 90% of the funds for a particular study, and they came to a conclusion that seems to support neutrogena products, that might be a bias worth reporting on. I think it would be really cool for you to do a video on the legitimacy of grooming science as it relates to the funding of those studies. Thanks so much for the content dude, can't wait for the next video! :D

What shampoo should k use, i have damaged high porosity hair, at it is so.etimes Frizzy

Bruh , I'm Having Protein Overload . Thanks For The Tips !

So my hair is dry when I take a hair it’s elastic but it breaks so does that mean I need both protein and moisture

My bf watching this video and I had to comment: now he’ll finally understand why, as I curly girl, I am as he says “obsessed with hair” hhaha now he’s getting into all the hair and skin tea and I couldn’t be happier 😅😂🎉

Thanks this helped alot : )

Well now I wanna grow my hair out

Long hair = freedom

Hey Trav, I was wondering if yk if a hair smoothie is good for my hair. I’m a 3a but I’ve been losing hair a lot and they appear thin and when the wind blows you can see my scalp

Big question. I wet my hair in the shower every day. It’s the only way to tame the mess in the morning. I only wash 1 or 2 times a week plus a cowash 1 or 2 times in between. My hair is a frizzy mess in the morning. How do I calm it down with out getting it wet?

The past 6 months or more I’ve been using Garnier Fructis which says it has “active fruit protein.” I’ve always had pretty fine hair that sheds quite a bit, but recently I’ve started to question if it’s been shedding more then usual. I put my hair in a braided hair style I used to do all the time and even though my hair is even long now the braids felt smaller and less full. I’m starting to worry that maybe I’m experiencing an overload of protein. I’m not really sure what to do or how to be certain.

i tug a hair and it doesn't feel elastic. and only snaps when i tug hard enough with alot of grip on my hair. not instant snap. If i apply moderate tug my hand just slides to the end. so its that not enough protein?

I have low porosity hair with less elasticity but my hair doesn’t like coconut oil or any other oil because it gets too much

But isnt the Coconut Oil Hydration Shampoo/Conditioner bad when you have Protein overload ? like Coconut Oil keeps Protein or doesnt it

Still not sure what to do, I have low porosity hair and it’s dry dry. It’s needs moisture it sounds like but how do I get it to soak it up

Thank you Trav for this through video! I learned so much. When I did the elasticity test my hair strand stretched quite a bit and then it broke. I normally have straight/loose wavy hair but when my hair broke it curled up. Does this mean I need protein? I’m a bit confused why my hair strand curled up after breaking ......

@sk8tergrl181

It curled up bc it doesn’t have enough protein, protein makes the hair stronger so it would’ve retained its shape after stretching

My hair does the same

Why for high porosity coarse hair do i need a protein based product? Isnt the hidration is needed for high porosity? I have also a bad elasticity

I have very similar hair to you. My porosity is most likely high, because my hair dries in two hours or so. I started using the ogx protein shampoo and conditioner. Maybe I used too much conditioner, but it left my hair looking insanely flat unlike Aussie miracle volume shampoo/conditioner I was using. I did the elasticity test, and my hair strand broke right away when I started to pull on it. After I shampoo and condition I started putting some coconut oil in my hair. With fine hair would it be better to just apply the oil at the ends so it doesn't feel so weighed down? Also what is the best way to add moisture to my hair? This is my first time growing out my hair, and I need help. Thank you.

Wooop woop wow

what is you have low porosity AND fine hair?

Hi , when I did the moisture/protein test, my hair didn't break but there was no elasticity. Does that mean I need both moisture and protein?

you need to actually try to break it

Alright. What are you supposed to do when the root of your hair is like oily and feels dirt but it's only been like 2 days since you washed it but my hair is also really frizzy and dry and do NOT like humidity. I stopped using any products in my hair except I put Argon oil in it when my hair is still wet on days that I know it's going to be really humid outside

okay i need help i pulled my hair and it did not break but my hair is still frizzy and dry what should i do

Bro if I apply oil on my hair then take a bath. Will it help to reduce moisture damage?

I’m having a hard time figuring out how to proceed with my hair.. my salons are both over an hour away so I’m trying to figure it out myself but I’m not sure where the damage came from. My strand test from many sections show easy breaking hair. It used to be more on a normal side when I did it. Recently I’ve been heat styling more because of summer humidity and frizz. I sometimes forget heat protectant but the protectant I use has protein. I just switched from olaplex to keratin based treatments because I heard it can help smooth, straighten and get rid of frizz.. within a month or so of this is when I noticed more frizz and breakage! I recently just put Aveda smooth infusion in to try and style it because I’m at a loss and very confused on what to use anymore.. Idk if its damage or protein overload.. I’m on a long list of articles and videos trying to figure it out but if anyone has any ideas, please lmk! Oh in the last six months or more like since Halloween, I’ve had highlights and fashion colors for the first time but it’s all been ok. I did have some patches of damage but overall, it was healthy and I have gone over some highlights more than once but I only use stains and color theory to change up colors. Even still, the hair was frizzy but good. I regularly did a combo of moisture, conditioning and olaplex about every 6 weeks using all colorsafe cept once with dumb $3 suave but as humidity rolled in.. I realized I didn’t know if I could do a relaxing or straightening treatment with color so I been holding off and just improvising which when this is all happened :( I haven’t straightened my hair 2020 summer or bleached since about March but yeah idk what to use anymore.. most of my products have protein :/ Oh and my hair can be dry and break but it holds onto moisture like most curly hair. I recently did a heartless style and 12plus hours later, it was still very damp. All I can consider now is different ways to style my hair or different tools to cut back against traditional blow dry and iron?
