“You deserve to feel good about you hair everyday” Thank you! ❤ I’m so tired of hearing from other influencers their rules about how not to live life when it comes to our hair ( heat and products are the devil 🙄).

Thank you for this. I constantly feel bad or guilty for using heat on my hair but when I air dry it doesn’t look good. Also have this same feeling if I have to wash more than twice a week. Glad to have your common sense advice 😊

When you have thin fine hair, you have to use heat on it, or you'll be wondering why everybody's hair looks better than yours. I'm a model in NYC who did no heat for 3 years. I looked frizzy, unkempt and a mess, until I finally used heat on my hair at the end of the 3 years and finally looked put together again. All 3 years did nothing to heal my hair, it genuinely looked so much worse without heat styling.

I’ve been trying to get my hair healthy, I haven’t used heat in 15 years. My hair never got healthy. It’s still dry/damaged/frizzy and just horrible looking. I do have a thyroid condition. So I figured it’s too fragile for heat. Looks bad anyway, might as well use heat.

I wash my hair every day. My head feels dirty if I don’t.

Me too!

I have long curly hair that is also fairly thin, which is masked by the optical illusion of the curls. I have been trying over the last 1-2 years to improve my hair thickness and get it to grow longer( faster than I have to trim the ends, lol) and have had great success with collagen and glucosamine/ chondroitin supplements and the baking soda scrubs I do 1 or 2 times a month! I just keep a little jar of baking soda by the shower, grab some in one hand and shampoo in the other, mash them together and wash my hair with it! Be careful on the ends where it's fragile or skip them. Concentrate on the scalp, exfoliating the scalp will absolutely encourage new hair growth because you're unblocking the follicle. I didn't realize how powerful this really was until one of my clients( I'm a dog groomer) started essentially exfoliating her Pom with a slicker brush every day, and all the hair she'd lost( which was MOST of it😳) ALL GREW BACK!!!! In 3 months! I was STUNNED! Groomers see double coated breeds all the time that never grow hair back right after being shaved or get patchy n thin as they age, and there's never been a solution for this, even from the vets- well hallelujah, THAT was the solution! Exfoliation!!! Getting all that dead skin, dirt, oil, etc off the hair follicles and the the hair starts growing! So I started exfoliating with the baking soda( which my hair dresser had suggested to pull the product buildup off my hair) and I saw a HUGE difference! After 6 months, my hair had grown 3 times the rate that it had been growing! You just have to be diligent after the baking soda wash and shampoo it a couple times with a moisturizing shampoo and use a really good conditioner ( I use Its a 10 Mask) because the baking soda will dry it out. The other thing that works wonders is coconut oil! Again, I had a client with a poodle that lost ALL his hair down BOTH sides of his body- I mean BALD! She dpent a couple grand at 4 different vets and he was still bald. This was over about 1-2 years. Then she decided to start giving him coconut oil( feeding) and rubbing it into his skin, like a hot oil treatment. Not only did all his hair grow back, it was 3 times as thick as the rest of it and DARK! He was a chocolate color, but super faded from age, but the new growth was REALLY deep chocolate!!! It was crazy how well it worked! I had my 80 year old mom start doing it and it helped her too!😂❤❤❤

Great timing of this video! With my thin/fine hair I usually start to dry with high heat switching to medium on the more fragile front. But yesterday, forgot to switch, the front dried super fast and held style surprisingly well. Thanks for advice that is is okay to continue to style with high heat😊

I agree about "volumizing" shampoos and conditioners. I used Redkin Volume Injection shampoo and conditioner that was recommended for fine hair by a different KZreadr and my hair was never so dry, flyaway, and static clingy! I wasn't sure it was the shampoo and conditioner at first, so I had to stop using each product I was using (a super time-consuming and aggravating experience!) until I finally figured out it was them. Also, the shampoo has salicylic acid in it, which is an ingredient in acne medications that causes the skin to dry and peel (exfoliate) and that I have a sensitivity to. No wonder my scalp was so itchy!!

Do what works for you. I have to ignore the advice about not shampooing everyday. I've tried not to and it is too oily on the top and dry on the bottom. Just use the right kind and amount of shampoo. Every day is preferable for some people.

Great advice! I have naturally curly fine hair. Since I've been retired and do very little to my hair, only washing once a week, the condition is very good. I don't use a lot of product and only really style my hair maybe once a week. I straightened my hair for the first time in over a year and was amazed how good it looked. I used liquid minoxidil for over 20 years and it worked well, but it made my hair very dry. Now I use oral minoxidil and my hair has grown almost 6 inches in 8 months. I'm almost 65 and I have the hair of someone in their 30's. Plus I have a good diet putting collagen and lots of protein in my morning smoothie. Thanks for the great tips!

I personally could never get a strong enough curl with a hot iron, it would always lose curl in a couple hours. But I do get great results with overnight heatless curls. They last for days. And recently been using big sexy hair powder play. Game changer! Love the volume and soaks up oils and sweat so I can go a few more days between washes. Also light light lightly oiling the ends after styling polishes off the style.

I agree and you are so nice! And funny, no wonder your wife looks so happy with you! 😊

Thank you. I have had fine, thin, straight hair all my life. It was easier to style it when young as it had more flexability than it does now. Since Covid, I lost lots of hair and still seem to lose more than I'd like. I dont like short hair on myself and its too fine and thin for long hair, besides im old now. Im 68 and just beginning to see some gray strands. Everyone always says, it's too silky, you have to damage your hair to be able to do anything with it. I think to myself, they sell all these products to correct damage, yet I'm told I need to damage it. Thank you for agreeing with me. Damaging hair would only make it worse. The way to not have damaged hair like mine is to keep it trimmed. I can't use conditioner, it weighs it down too much, even if just used on the tips, i really dont need it. I don't have oily hair, yet my own oils condition my hair if not washed too often. I use volumizing or thickening shampoo and do not wash it but a couple times a week, sometimes less, It depends what I'm doing, where I'm going, and on the climate. If it feels dirty, i wash it. Yes its true, after awhile products can seem to build up. I do use a max hold hairspray to keep hair out of my eyes as its thiner at the hairline and falls in my face and looks unkept. I use heat to dry my hair, upside down, but it doesn't take but a couple minutes to dry. I haven't had much style my whole life as it's been about impossible. Many have not known how to handle hair like mine. True story, think only one person seemed to get it and she retired long ago. I dont take meds and am not good with hair, so I don't mess with it much. Love your videos.

As always great video, and I loved the last comment about the highway! That definitely makes sense to me, and helped me to reconsider what I do and don't do to limit damage to my rather thin and fragile hair. By the way, (my apologies for not checking beforehand if this has already been addressed in any of your videos) do you know if a healthy whole food plant based diet has negative impact on hair? While the rest of my health is much better since eating this way (and it also is my preferred way for etical and ecological reasons), my hair seems to worsen (breaking more, thinner, more white hairs) lately. Of course I'm also not getting younger, have thyroid issues and have struggled with mental health lately.......so food is maybe the last reason, still I wonder.

Do you get the protein your body needs? protein is the single biggest thing hair needs from our diet to be in great condition. I would take a protein supplement if you don't want to add meat to your diet, but your GP should be the one to really advise.

My hair looks best when there's no products in it. It's the most airy and voluminous . I do have to heat style it but even heat protection spray weighs my hair down 😢

Thank You!!!!❤

P.S. On day 5 I use dry shampoo and oil on the ends to get through the last 2 days. I am 70 years old, I get some compliments on my hair when it is curled, but have struggled with it since it got damaged by a hairdresser 2 years ago. I have a new hairdresser who is better and more agreeable to what I ask her to do to not damage my hair.

Totally agree! 🎉

Interesting. Thanks!

I've started using warm, not hot on the blow dryer. My hair seems to do better. It's short enough that I don't use a curling iron. Sadly, my stylist left the salon and moved further out, so I'm not going to be able to follow her. sigh. Back to the hunt, again.

Depends on your hair and the curlers. Velcro can be a bit more harsh but there are just a lot of factors.

Great video! Since I stopped washing my hair every day, it had actually improved. It appears to have more volume? The first thing my hair stylist told after meeting me for the first time was to stop washing my hair every day! How did she know!😂 Anyway it is looking and feeling a lot healthier. I'm a little too clumsy with styling tools. I've hit myself in the face with the end of the blow dryer and burned my forehead with the curling iron. So I mostly let it dry naturally if I have the time or don't care, but when I do care, I started using a blow dryer brush thing. I follow your instructions for a curling or flat iron and it comes out really nice.❤

I use those long aluminum hair clips after shampoo and form curls but not too many. That way frizz is way down and the hair is smoother and curled after drying. I only wash hair now about every week so I have free weekend time to do it (if you have a job).

Noone ever mentions the exception to the rule about concentrating shampoo on the scalp not the ends. I did that for years. When I switched to bluing shampoo for my gray hair, the color was uneven with brassy tones midway to the ends. It never occurred to me that I needed to shampoo differently until a stylist pointed that out.

Thanks! Any chance you could do a piece on styling THICK fine hair??😢

I’m 65. Used to have extremely thick, coarse,curly hair. It has thinned but is still coarse and curly. I fell into the heat-is-bad-for-my-thin-hair thinking, until a stylist I found 4 years ago told me with my hair texture, I need to use a flat iron on maximum heat. She was right! When I leave the salon after a cut, my hair is so shiny with lots of movement. She would finish my hair with a flat iron on maximum heat. When I adopted this practice, my hair is so soft and shiny, with lots of movement. My style also lasts, which means I’m only using my flat iron once or twice a week. The heat is required to seal the cuticle.

Definitely a heat protector and low setting on a blow drier for fine thin hair.

God bless you for these thin and fine hair videos

Love!

Thank you for this! I used moisturizing shampoo and conditioner because, as you get older, EVERYTHING gets drier! But I only wash my hair every 3 days. The biggest difference in getting back to a slightly thicker hair has been a very good fish oil of all things. Within a couple of months of my hair was much healthier and thicker. This is on 70 yo hair.

Any advice on what type of hair dryer is best? Some of them say they have some ion technology or some claim. Will any hair dryer do? Thanks!

I have fine hair, I find if I need to condition it, wet hair and put conditioner on, then rinse out, and shampoo last. I shampoo once a week and use castile bar soap with orange in it, this is what works for me. My hair is getting thicker, but it is taking some time.

Finally you mentioned curly hair

I use Biolage Hydra Source and shampoo once every 5 days. I apply the conditioner on the ends of my hair. I let my hair air dry until almost completely dry. When I am home and not going out for a few days, I let my hair just air dry.

Yes! I made the mistake of trying thickening and volumizing products and a lot of them made my baby fine hair worse! I went back to moisturizing products for fine hair and that works much better. Also, the less I wash it, the better it looks so I just put it up in a loose clip on days it's not so presentable. Also, I have much healthier hair since I stopped blow drying it. Although if I really want a "big hair" day, I will blow dry it.

I have fine, thin naturally curly hair. I’ve recently retired and want to let my curls go naturally. While I wash my hair only twice a week, I do wet it down every morning in the shower and apply conditioner on the ends to help control frizz. I’d appreciate tips on managing frizz and ideas on good hair cut styles for an active outdoor loving senior.

Quick question about not conditioning near the roots. Especially around my hairline, I have some damage from highlights and heat styling. I feel like this delicate hair needs conditioning. No? Thank you! I’m learning a lot.

I would love to see a video on how to help refresh a style on day 2 hair. I can go to day 3 before my hair really needs to be shampooed, but on day 2 I have either a bit of frizz, some wonky waves, curls or flips from sleeping on it. I try to limit using heat tools on it between shampoos, but would like to hear your thoughts on refreshing the style without causing too much damage. I use a leave in conditioner that has heat protection when I style after washing. I know I need to reapply heat protection if I am restyling, but am never sure how much to apply, and whether I need to let that dry before applying the dryer, curling iron, or flat iré on. I have fine, wavy hair. I used to have a lot of hair, bit that is changing post menopause. On wash day I struggle with rough drying to 80% because that then causes frizz. But I do use a microfiber towel to really get as much moisture out before I start using the blow dryer.

Me too! Your hair sounds EXACTLY like mine! Fine, with just enough wave to be frizzy, and thinning post menopause. Ugh, so difficult to get the right balance between volume and frizz-free without weighing down what hair we have left, too!

When you’re rough drying and you start to see frizz - that’s a good thing, it just means you’re ready to move on to heat styling

@@gagalover2k10 if I see frizz, it’s already too late. Blow drying it more doesn’t turn the frizz and wave back to sleek and shiny.

I’m so grateful for your educational and realistic approach! Thank you ❤ Your fairy feather haired friend

Justin - do you have any advice for products/styling for GUYS? My son has fine hair and wants to know what shampoo, etc. to use. Thanks!

I have fine strands of hair, but a LOT of them. I have thick fine hair, lol! It's curly too. Still, I watched this video and learned from it. Thanks!

I have fine,thin short cut hair and live in a humid climate with lots of heat especially at summer! So my hair which are not oily loose their volume and shape!! I have to wash them every day just to give them a style... I discovered dry shampoo that do work even on my hair, give them some volume but I still need to use tools to give them shape! At least I skip one or two days washing them...

I have both thin and fine hair. I wash my hair once a week before washing. Before I shampoo I will comb/brush it. I usually wear it in a messy ponytail for work...I know hair ties can break your hair. Obviously I'm not using product or heat. But I do bleach it about 3 or 4 times a year to accommodate my use of semi permanent "bright" colors, see my profile pic for example. I do deep conditioning treatments regularly so as to minimize the damage from 8:40 8:40 8:40 8:40 bleach. Even without the added damage my hair has always had the ability to create tangles almost as soon as I brush them out. Even tho I use conditioner. And yes I only brush my hair dry and I use either my detangler comb (wide spaced curved tynes that alternate) or my oval shaped paddle type brush. I've been taking care of my hair for about 50yrs so I learned long ago to start at the bottom and work my way up. Now that we have covered all the bases what I'm wondering is if it is better to brush my hair daily or not. Sometimes I think that I'm brushing out more hair doing it daily rather than weekly. Basically I want to know the pros and cons of each practice. Appreciate your advice. Also I enjoy your videos because you do a lot about thin fine hair. ❤❤

What do you consider is a good product for curly hair

is there anyway we can get an unscented product? Thanks

I have a full round face and 3c curly hair.. I need ur recommendation for hairstyle vecause my natural hair makes my face even look fuller.

How about a leave in conditioner after the wash out conditioner before the heat protectant?

My hair is fine and thin and if I don’t wash my hair every other day, my scalp gets itchy and my hair starts to shed. I also need heat to make sure the structure of my frizzy, slightly kinky hair lays smoothly. My hair is not being damaged more from using heat tools! Whoever made up this myth never studied hair structure and never quantified what temp was actually going to destroy fine hair. Using a moderate heat, I get the results I need! Don’t be afraid to use heat! Use a heat protector and lower heat and I promise you’ll get the looks you want! This has been intuitive to me and I’m so happy someone is on here saying it!!!!

Agreed!

Curling iron a spritz of hairspray on the wrapped hair on the iron. It gives me more volume and the curls last longer. Aqua Net purple can lol yeah i know

Thanks, Justin! I do have a question, though. What if you have wavy/curly hair? And fine and thin. I don't know what to use when I don't want it curly. If I use a flat iron it looks too thin.
