I think I love this channel! Fighting consumerism with pure science. These others natural channels are truly horrible when it comes to knowledge. They just regurgitate what the heard from the last KZreadr they watched. 😒

So true, the names often mean nothing. Loads of protein products (except for Aphogee) have barely any protein in, and the products which DO have protein in are often described as moisturising or softening even. I've noticed that products for courser textures seem to be the most honest, with good ingredients at a fair or low price, they actually do what they say more.

As soon as a KZreadr/IG influencer endorses a hair product, everyone is all over it. Drives me nuts. We need to educate ourselves better. 🤦🏾‍♀️

I’ve learned the hard way that all of this information really is important! Growing and maintaining healthy hair can’t just be done by just winging it!

Girl out there giving truth and knowledge to all of us. Been binging your videos since yesterday when I found your channel

I want a moisturizer with holy water as its first listed ingredient. 🤪

I love you channel, so much knowledge 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 defanaly watching all your videos

Your hair looks soo beautiful and healthy!! You go sis!!!

These tips are amazing! Thank you so much for bringing an educational perspective to this entire matter. It is so helpful!

This is probably been the most easily understandable explanation of balancing protein and conditioning I've come across so far. I think now I have a much better idea of how to form a proper routine for my hair. Thanks!

Yep my super Low Porosity hair snapped when I did the Aphogee 2 step protein treatment, my hair hated it!!!

Low porosity is never really supposed to have protein treatments on it

I heard the OKUUURR & got excited, then I saw the Adore gif & now I'm super hyped haha

THAT INTROOOOO IS WHAT I'M LIVING FOR.

Your channel should be bigger! Nuttin but pure facts, I learnt the hard product junky way but thank god I still have long hair with all the trash I put init 😭😂♥️👌🏾🇬🇧

Ah really helpful tip!! I have a protein treatment from ORS's Hair Mayonnaise- Horsetail & Nettle Extract Masque that I feel has greatly helped my hair & yet at the same time, caused this natural feel of stiffness. My other weekly deep conditioner or as needed, is an Shea Moisture' Manuka Honey & Yogurt Protein & Moisture Masque... The tip you mentioned about using an absolutely protein-free deep conditioner is going to be greatly helpful to start implementing!! Thank you for that. I've been using a regular conditioner & leaving a tiny dab amount in because I've noticed the dryness my hair is signaling out to me lol, I have average width/medium density, and natural low porosity hair. And it's true... My hair is protein sensitive. Though I've truly incorporated in natural to lighter versions of protein into allowing it to be strengthened, as it's currently transitioning. I've just now really started to give my natural roots a chance to completely breathe again, without for once, wanting to have it straightened. Though, that's adjustable if ever necessary, hopefully not lol.

I just subcribe to your channel. I really like the way that you are teaching us how to take care our hair. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

Thank you for this video

Could you please do a video on Shea moisture products 🙏? I'm having a hard time figuring it out! And I'm about to go crazy with my microscope 😆 cuz I can't see the ingredients!!! Love ya girl!!!

You are so right that the haircare industry is all about selling us products galore! I can't wait to get to the stage of not feeling like I need to try everything! I'm starting to get an idea of what truly works, but its always fun to try the new stuff. Either way, I'm here for this video sis!!! 💛

What are your thoughts regarding the formaldehyde releaser (Urea) in the top ingredients of the Aphogee?

Do you have a video about products for low porosity hair?

hi. please make a video about surfactants, silicones, DMDM and all those ingredients which causes hairfall according to google and pretty plenty of youtubers. please please it's request

You are so pretty

lmbo.... Sanctified water!! ha love it!... rolling

“Sanctified Water” 🤣 Too, funny. Do you know of or have you used Hennasooq hair care? I’m curious about your thoughts.

I have fine hair. Could I use the conditioner only of the 2 step protein treatment as a protein treatment.

@AfopeAtoyebi

3 жыл бұрын

You could use it as a protein conditioner, yes. Protein conditioners tend to be milder than protein treatments (which have proteins listed in the top 3 or so ingredients).

Isn’t there a different between hydration and moisturizing? Like hydration is the water and moisturizing is for example an oil that keeps the water in.

Are you from Nigeria Africa? I'm from Johannesburg South Africa. How long have you been natural

I want help with curl definition. Please. All products work for 20 minutes and when it’s dries my hair stops being defined. I have high porosity, high density, I and O curl hair. The O curls define better than the I curl. Please help.

I used rice water as a conditioner 3 weeks in a row but did not condition after the rice water. The first week my hair was beautiful. Second week hair became a bit frizzy, third week my hair was very frizzy, broken, & dry. Nothing I use now has helped to improve my hair. I think it is now low porosity, dries fast, thin, still somewhat curly. Your videos are very helpful. I hope to find tricologist in my area either in a dermatologist office or a salon. Thank you for educating us.

Too many products on the market have me mad confused, which is why I strictly DIY. 🤣

Hahahaha 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾 I’d say keep an eye on your hair as it continues to grow, to make sure your hair is getting all it needs, and be open to trying the right store bought product for those needs if/when such a time arises. That being said, with the level of intentionality you clearly have, I have no doubts you’ll be okay 🥰.

@@AfopeAtoyebi Agreed. I do my best to give my body what it needs via food. And what I cannot get from food (because I am vegan-ish), I take plant-based supplements. Although, most products give me angst, I did purchase Target's new Emerge brand to see if it is good, better or worse than my DIYs. I may do a comparison video.
