Using different oils and conditioners on a different parts of Your hairs depends on porosity. You can always try to cut the part with a different one (if it was bleached for example and wento into high porosity) but that can be painfull. There is also a way to use herb dye for hairs henna (red) and cassia (no color/yellow shades) are staying on hairs, getting into the sheels and changing structure of hair. Cassia can wash out after 6-8 washes, henna stays in your hairs permanently and you can remove it only with bleaching. I have fall down from very high porosity to middle in half of a year after around 11 layers of henna (put on hairs around 1 or 2 times in a month, not too much, as this is a high humectant treatment, and my hairs preffers proteins and oils) :) On my dark brown natural hairs it gived red shades in sunlight, and make them a bit closer to black when not outside buildings.

I’m Asian and have used henna for my hair many times and know literally dozens of people who have used it pretty much a majority of their adult lives. If you use actual henna powder, I know there aren’t any bad long-term effects that you *see*. I can’t speak to the chemical changes, but, in my experience, there isn’t damage from it. The henna we use has a reddish-brown colour than the darker varieties in other parts of Asia and in Africa, so most of the people I know use it for its dyeing properties. The plant apparently also has anti-fungal and anti-oxidative properties so some people also use it to help treat scalp irritation and dandruff. If you have sensitive skin, I can imagine that it might cause irritation and redness, but I personally don’t know anybody who has experienced that. I have seen social media videos of people using the ready-made henna tattoo paste (the ones available in cones) on their face or hair, with unpleasant results, but that is most likely because of the additional dyes and stabilising chemicals that are added to the paste. I’ve only ever used pure henna powder mixed with hibiscus flower powder, rose water, Fuller’s earth clay (Multani mitti) or coconut oil as a hair mask and it always made my hair super shiny and soft and gave my black hair a reddish-brown tinge.

I've used henna for years and it definitely made my hear look and behave better and healthier. When you use henna you need an acid and heat to activate it, the acid in the mixture could also have beneficial effects like hair smoothing. I have wavy fine hair and eventually quit using it, because it does dye your hair red. After the first few days it does fade/oxidize to a more natural tone. If you have very dark hair you may not have a huge difference in color but it does become redder

I recently did balayage on my curly hair and couldn't figure out why none of my pricey shampoos and conditioners weren't working (Pureology), therefore I'm so glad that you made this video, Michelle. Thanks a million from someone whose hair currently looks like a bird's nest ❤

I have mixed afro-caucasian hair naturally (about a 2c-3a) and when I started doing keratin treatments and balayage I had to change my ENTIRE hair routine. it also didn’t help that I was previously using lots of sheamoisture and rich oil/butter products and actually I realised that my hair needs more protein than fat to feel healthy (hence the keratin!)

oh my gosh I moved to a new town about 30 min from our old home and just that small distance has resulted in the hard water in our new town absolutely DESTROYING my hair. we installed filters (on the main water line and on our shower heads too) and now my hair's slowly starting to recover. but god my skin and hair have been suffering 😭

Has anyone else had their hair colour/texture permanently change after chemotherapy? Mine changed dramatically immediately following treatment, but it never truly went back to the way it was. It does not even lay in the same direction and shines a very vivid unnatural red in sunlight - I assume that is the underlying pigment showing through? I even have some hairs that are not blonde or white but genuinely see-through.

So I have had chemo, radiation and surgery. Where I had radiation, my hair is a tighter curl pattern than before. The other half of my head is my typical curl pattern. That's years after treatment. My hair came our very wire like and thin when it first came in, but after some time it went back to normal, although still curlier than before. I have the natural red highlights and some pure white hairs in there now too. I've seen some people go from straight to curly and some go from curly to straight. Chemo works on each person differently, just like not everyone gets exactly the same side effects.

Yes, product ingredients can change and the brands don't even have to say. Some might even stop making the product because the cost for ingredients/shipping have gone up or they can no longer source a particular ingredient. Annoying when you find something you like and works for you.

Now I need to go apologize to my sister because thought she was just a product junkie 😂 Thanks for the info!

I had no idea that hard water can accelerate oxidation damage!

We also have horrendously hard water here, so now I know what I need to do to try and fix it and will probably try olaplex as well to see if it helps haha.

This is super interesting. What happens to me is, having really oily hair, I try something new (say a sample), and suddenly my hair stays clean for a couple extra days.

Yeah that’s so interesting! Why does some shampoo and conditioners leave the hair feeling clean for 3 days vs some others. I’d love going to the salon cuz their products left my hair fresh for days!

I use clarifying shampoos because I wash my hair once a week. They do tend to be drying so I squish conditioner into my hair before detangling. I have coarse, thick curly hair.

That was super interesting. My hair is behaving itself really well, atm, but I love learning about this stuff. I've definitely struggled with this in the past. My hair is thick and dense and wavy, but not really damaged. In the end, it was conditioner for 'fine' hair, that ended up working for me. And no leave in or such, although that is always recommended, for wavy/curly hair. Turns out, my hair just doesn't need any of that and will turn limp and straight, if I overwhelm it with conditioning ingredients. Especially any kind of oil does not agree with it. Less is more for me, apparently 🙂

Excellent video! 😯😍 Can you please make a video about what surfactants in formulations work less effective against hard water? It would help so much and maybe I wouldn’t need to clarify more often if I don’t own shower filters?

This is a very timely video because I have been "researching" about frizzy/flyaway hair. I have been trying a bunch of products and nothing is working. I have these flyaway hair that makes me look like I have been electrocuted. I even tried CGM but I barely have any waves (straight Asian hair). I used to have a very minimal hair routine (just shampoo, conditioner, and air dry) and silky smooth hair. After watching the video, I now think it is probably because I moved to a place with hard water and I also started swimming last year. I would also be interested in the science of flyaway hair.

Thank you so much for this! There is so much misinformation about hair products out there. Thanks for helping us learn. 💜

I never knew about this. I usually have 2-3 shampoos on rotation, where I alternate them between washes. I use Olaplex and Amika, and sometimes pureology, tsubaki and Redken. Olaplex makes my hair the smoothest and softest so it's my favourite one. I live in a soft water area in the UK, but when I visit London which is hard water, I notice a difference in my hair.

I was actually trying to find an answer to this today, so I'm so glad this got recommended.

This was fascinating!! That you for the video on this topic. I like to change up my routine, but it's mostly because I love novelty, lol!!! I also noticed the difference that moving made -- my water is much harder here than at my old place! Very cool info about looking for certain ingredients to see if that makes a difference.

This video is worth gold.

Thank you! Each of these could make an awesome video. Also, do you have any thoughts on k18?

My first pregnancy (20 years ago when I had a shoulder length bob): about 4 months in, over the space of 3 days, my hair went from thin and fine but manageable to stiff straw. Even my hairdresser hadn't seen as big a change before mine. A couple of weeks of trialing different products led us to the treatments for permed hair giving me (almost) normal hair again. It was expensive. I'm not one for fussy hair care, I don't even have a hair dryer. After bubs was born, my hair went greasy, so I was able to go back to old faithful! Funnily enough, my second pregnancy didn't seem to shock my hair at all; although I still had major "Morning" sickness with both.

This video was so helpful! I have a question/request. What are some good scalp-hydrating products to use regularly after shampooing? (preferably lightweight!) Are the ingredients to look for or avoid? I have scalp problems, I have minor psoriasis, used to have yeast problems, am allergic to sulfates, the list goes on. I've found recommendations online that using good scalp hydrating products and after shampooing can be a good step to hydrate and protect the scalp skin after washing. (Like adding adding lotion after washing your face, important to keep the skin healthy.) I've found most conditioners are not really made for this, and leave the scalp feeling a bit icky. "scalp lotion" doesn't seem to exist. What can I use?

I’d love to see your take on rice or enzyme powder exfoliating cleansers, ones from brand like Good Molecules, Juno & Co, and By Wishtrend. When I was younger I used to scrub my face with an exfoliating glove (super abrasive I know 😭😭) but it really helped me with skin brightening for my discoloration and my skin texture I since then have stopped but now that these have been making rounds on Tiktok I’d like to see a cosmetic chemist view on their Ingredients and how they work.

Would love a video explaining how to balance protein vs moisture in my hair shampoo / conditioner products.

I live in an area with hard water and I did notice a big impact in my hair and skin. Is there any shower head softener that you recommend? I have difficulty identifying one that is legitimate and will indeed work. Thanks! 😊

You can make it yourself pretty cheaply using vitamin C crystals you can buy at a health food store. Comes in pretty large containers, and you don’t need a lot for a bottle of homebrew swim spray.

I have very bleached sections of my hair (I wanted grey streaks and under layer) and my hair is very thin, fine, and brittle usually because i get too depressed to care for it sometimes. I soak my hair through and then coat it gently in coconut oil or my hair oil that I hadon hand at the time, it's cocoa and honey hair and scalp oil from uhhh I forget. But it's a pink bottle. And I stayed in the pool all day in a loose braid and was too tired to rinse my hair after, and I was still not damaged after a lot of swimming days. So I think that helps, just have water in your hair already and a good oil blend. I think an oil that can soak into the hair and one that stays on the surface helps. I also go easy on shampoo unless I've been in the pool to give my hair a break and just conditioner wash in the summer.

hi! I was wondering if you would ever do a video about retinal. I often see it in cosmetics with concentration simmilar to tretinoin rather than retinol. I see an explanation that retinal is one conversion less to trerinoin than retinol, but I dont get the fact that is is still used in such low concentrstions. I've also read that retinal gives people less iritation than retinol, which conserns me a bit since both of them theoretically should work the same and just give the same end product which is known for its irritancy. I cant find any satisfying data about retinal and im really curious if it is really so potent that it is used in 10 times less concentration than standard retinol products while having less side effects. Great video as always ❤️

I've been needing this video. I did a big chop and almost all of my treated hair is gone, and now my hair is reacting differently to things that were fine before hand . It's common sense but I needed some extra input lol

I miss VO5 conditioner with lard!!! That stuff worked! Lol

“Groupwork is the worst” 😂 amen to that!

Really helpful. My biggest takeaways are that a shampoo may be only really cleaning some things from hair but leaving others behind which then accumulate until the point it's noticeable. But because it wasn't all at once it's not obvious the shampoo simply needs to be rotated with one that cleans the holdover ingredient better. Also I've long known hard water was a problem, but never knew the problem was compounded by using fatty acids in hair products. I've liked fatty acids in general for my hair but may need to rethink that.

I hope you do videos on CGM as well!

How can I choose a good humidity resistant product? Which ingredients do I have to look for? I really struggle with this problem. My hair are flat iron straight and then I go out, 30 minutes and hair became a wavy mess. And i have fine hair too.

please talk about how to care for scalp, i have always had super oily, gunk y scalp and i haven’t found a clarifying shampoo or scalp serum that has helped, it gets oily again really fast and doesn’t leave it clean

it's hard for me to find anything on this, mostly i keep getting marketing articles shilling for dry shampoo, which isn't what i'm looking for. my questions are: what's the science between hair being better/easier to style on day 2 or 3? what's our natural oil, and how does it compare with oils in hair products? my hair has become so dry & frizzy.

You are the best ❤

I've been using Hairstory's New Wash for several years now, and my hair just loves it. I have long, type 1A hair that I have to wash every day. It gets really staticky and flat when I use regular shampoo, but not with New Wash. The stuff is expensive, but it's also the only product I use daily. I use their Hair Balm maybe 2-3X per week, and that's it. I let it air dry, no other styling products. (FTR, I have no affiliation with the company other than as a customer.) Anyway, I'm curious to know what the chemistry is behind New Wash. I know it doesn't work for everyone (Wayne Goss gave it a major thumbs down, for example), but it sure works for me, and I'd love to understand why, LOL.

Whenever I go to south Europe (I live in the north where the water is soft) where the water is hard my hair becomes so damn silky smooth, I wish it was always like this
