New subbie here. I am blown away by the amount of information on technique and applied hair science you provide, and I love the format of including your wife. Due to hair texture changes in my 50s, I'm on the hunt for new styling techniques. Your advice about blow dryer direction and also avoiding the "wrist flick" have made a huge difference. Of course I have been trying new products and tools along the way. With your advice I am looking forward to a lot less "throw it all at the wall and see what sticks" in my future purchasing decisions.

Great conversation- I lost some hair around my face before I realized what was going on. Thanks to you and Live Love Locks my hair is much better !!

As a 44 year old woman, I really appreciate these conversations about issues, younger women might not yet face! Although so far, my hair is still going strong. Loads of white, but my hair has always been thick and dense and slightly wirery, so I haven't noticed much change in how it feels and behaves.

I use Color fanatic leave in conditioner and Redken acidic bonding concentrate is a game changer for me.

Hi Justin and Deanna. Greetings from the Bay of Plenty in New Zealand. I am coming up 72 with greying blond hair. I have fine curly hair but I have lot of it. I started to shed a lot of hair about 6 months ago and was quite concerned as I don’t colour my hair, use blow dryers and only wash my hair twice a week and it’s always air dried. I watched your video a couple ago and was interested in your comments about leave in conditioner. Wow what a game changer! I wash my hair, lightly condition and then apply the leave in conditioner, a very small bit of curl cream and then let it air dry. The leave in conditioner keeps the curl in until the next wash, my hair doesn’t feel dry and doesn’t go into the frizz for the next couple of days. Just within a very short period of time my hair shedding has dropped considerably and stays curly and soft until the next wash. Thanks so much! Love your hiking videos but think about coming down to NZ, views that don’t suck are around every corner. Best wishes. Diane.

Hi Justin! I'm a dark natural blonde who quit lightening her hair during the pandemic. Blonde hair is SO DELICATE and I now baby my hair. It's thinner in diameter and I have lost some through menopause and started Minoxidil about 6 months ago. I also use New Wash and combine that with a purple shampoo to get the oil out for about half my shampoos. Dr Mary Claire put in words everything I've been going through in my 40's and early 50's. I'll be 55 in about 2 weeks and I'm starting to feel great again. Also, your addressing the topic of the menopausal woman and how this affects everything about her hair, and consequently, her entire outlook is SO APPRECIATED. Product lines like Boom Beauty and Jones Road are finally focusing on the older woman. We are NOT aging like our mothers, thank goodness. 60 is the new 40, or something like that!

Oh yes yes yea.. I use my conditioner to wash the scalp on day three or two if needed. I kept thinking my hair hates shampoo. But I can condition wash it and actually if you find the conditioner you like it will do a much better job on the scalp and the whole hair overall. I’m so glad you said we can do that because I had at one point no choice but to do that. I have used high and conditioners and it did not do the job. The only one that seems to be OK for my hair is OG ask conditioner I believe it’s the coconut one. But I’m so glad you said that because it does make the hair happier with just conditioner. So preach those details because you’re on point my friend.

A Teacher, his Teacher Assistant and the many students listening intently. I loved this conversational format 👍🏻 I can't stand to go more than 2 days without shampooing even using dry/texturizing shampoo. I have used a silk pillowcase for years. You know what I hate about it ?? Seeing spots on it in the morning from my skincare since I'm a side sleeper. With 90% of what you listed as a cause of texture change, I nodded my head, that's my problem! I believe my 2 biggest problems are age (74) and color treating every 12 weeks. It used to be every 6 but since my grey is now blending in more with the blonde, I am able to extend the time between those appts.

Right on. Thanks for watching, always.

I’m 70 next year and have definitely noticed changes in my skin and hair in the last five years. I have natural blonde hair, but as it’s darkened overtime, I added some highlights. I’ve done this myself for nearly 28 years. My hair is down to my hips and wavy. A couple of years ago I added a couple layers myself… I’ve cut my own hair nearly all my life. I finally got sick of scraggly ends and funky color and went to a stylist in April. She added a few low lights and cut about a foot of length off and cut two long layers. My hair went completely curly! She said I had a ton of hair! I do like the look of the shorter length (my bestie said I look like a model ha ha) but it is more challenging to put up. The shortest layer falls just below my shoulders, mid layer, just below the collarbone and the longest layer just above the bra strap. I wear my hair up 90% of the time because I work from home. I use low suds shampoo and only wash two days a week. I have never used conditioner on my scalp. Even with hip length hair, I have never had tangles. Most of my life I had very oily hair and skin… No more. I use argon oil on the very ends after I wash. When my hair is dry, I use about a dime size of squalene oil and very lightly run it through the mid and ends of my hair. I now use a diffuser for my curls. I put my hair up in a silk scrunchie at night. The day after I wash my hair it goes from bouncy curls to soft curls which I love. I think it takes some trial and error to figure out what works. I learned that a good stylist can bring out the best in your hair. Finding the right stylist is key. It’s expensive so not everyone can afford to go regularly. Finding a stylist who will work with you and give you tips for the interim is helpful. Watching videos with people you trust and respect like the both of you is also very helpful. I appreciate the conversations and the professional information you give us Justin❤❤

I need a review of the new Live Love Locks Weightless Shampoo & Conditioner!

I enjoyed this video and learned a lot. My question is how do you only shampoo your roots when you have short hair (pixie)? I have fine straight hair with no body, so I need to use more products and shampoo every 2 or 3 days. I haven't had my hair colored since the first of April, so I may be having new experiences without the coloring and what looks like silver hair.

Justin & Dionna, what are your thoughts on repair products - ie, olaplex 3, K18 or Redkin Bonding Treatment? Will they help with damaged, color treated for over 40 folks and if so, how often & when should they be used? Also, when you mention how important it is to moisturize your hair is it better to use a hair mask or regular conditioner?

Hi there, I love this video, but I still need advice pls. My hair is thick and curly. I always air dry - it takes about 3 hours and I do not touch it, i add a curly styling cream and an oil on the scalp. I wash it just over a week as it's very dry. My scalp is dry. I can use moracin oil straight on the scalp to massage. I can oil ends and mids later on when dry. I use mouse the day after to help eliminate frizz which it does very well and I can either continue to mouse or use moracan oil the following days after which my hair feels nice and soft and shiney and combs easily through which a wide tomb come. my hair can feel like a haystack without anything! 8 years ago I had 15 sessions of radiotherapy which made my hair and skin oily - that was hard to work out. Now my hair is still but length but is turning whiter, dryer and the fringe area is breaker off - i have a mallen streak here where the most breakage is and don't know what to do for the best. I sleep in a bonnet! please help, I'm sure I am not the only one! :) thanking you in advance.

I have always enjoyed your videos! Your wife is beautiful. As I hit 40, I gradually noticed a lot these types of changes you mentioned. I have a new probelm now though because 6 months ago, I was diagnosed with breast cancer (Im 48). I went through 4 months of chemo, and finished 3 months ago. I have been growing from a bald head, ugh!..and I thought I had problems before. Lol..I always had long straight blond hair and now it is growing back thick/coarse, curly, and white/gray. I rub rosemary, cocnut oil, and castor oils on my head, take biotin, and eat healthy which seems to be working. The sleep you mentioned, not so much! The castor oil really helped my eyelashes and eyebrows grow, btw which I learned from others who went through chemo regrowth. I am still watching your videos and taking any advice I can use to help my current hair situation. I have never had a picie cut or very short hair, I am trying to figure out these styles. For now, it is wigs for me. I wish i had you to style my little current mullet. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge! ❤

I’ve heard of people using conditioner first and then shampoo. I can see how that conditioner already on the hair might protect the hair length from the shampoo. Since I started using more product I’m suddenly having buildup on my scalp. Any hints onhow do I prevent that?

@justinhickox

11 күн бұрын

Interesting, I’ve actually not heard of people doing that before. My initial thought is that depending on the shampoo they’re using, they may end up stripping the nutrients from the conditioner out of their hair immediately. Probably not the direction I would head. If you’re finding buildup from using product, using a stronger shampoo once every few times you shampoo or once a week, if you shampoo more often will help.

Great info! Thanks. I do need clarification on one point, however. At the beginning of your presentation you said our hair diameter becomes thinner with age. Later in the video you said our hair becomes coarser with age. I’m confused. Can you explain what I’m missing? Thanks!

Good to know you would enjoy this type of content! Thank you so much for watching

I love your videos with good info. And your wife is so sweet!🩷

What if all you did was use conditioner in the shower and not any shampoo (maybe 2 times a week to wash). I always feel I need to wet my hair in the morning .

I really know next to nothing about hair. I've always had really fine hair so that's never been one of the things that defines me. I truly don't understand not washing your hair. Like I said, I have really fine hair so I will go maybe every other day at most. I need a Basics for Dummies video about not washing. How do you style it? Do you wet it in the shower and just not wash? Why go to a fourth day without shampooing if it looks and feels gross - is it really worth hating your hair 25% of the time (based on Dionna's schedule she mentions)? Don't you need to wash the product out of the mid lengths? I truly don't understand this basic concept. Thanks for the education. I'm learning a lot from you.

57 here with natural silver hair, no heat styling, wear a hat in the sun always, and wash my hair once or twice a week! Why is it still dry?!

What if you use mousse and hairspray? Don't you need to wash those out of the midshaft and ends?

It depends on how much you’re using, and how often your shampooing. But the thought is that shampooing even the roots, you’re going to end up getting shampoo through the mid shaft and ends enough to remove that product. If you find that you’re not removing enough, once a week, you can shampoo your whole head mid shaft and ends as well.

Thank you for your video. I’m in my early sixties. I’m going to the gym, exercising at least 5 days a week. My hair is short with straight hair on top and wavy/frizzy underneath. After sweating from a workout I have to shower. It’s hard to only shampoo the scalp when my hair is short. It gets so frizzy by the end of the workout. Help!

I see a list of your favorites but I don’t see a favorite hair mask. Do you have any?

My hair diameter really thinned. I have gray curly wavy hair. So quite dry. The curlsmith leave in cream helps a lot.

❤GREAT VIDEO!

I color dark. Redken with that taken bond protector in the color. Roots only. The top layer of my hair is SO frizzy. Al the rest is fine even though I color all my roots. I have a HUGE problem getting that frizzy top layer to lay flat n not poof out. I’m stuck. Oils and whatnot don’t really work. I have to blow dry or flat iron. I usually blow dry it but it’s so frustrating bc it ruins the look of my straight, 1 length hair

Since my late 40's, my hair has become increasingly thicker and coarser, and it was thick and coarse to begin with. It used to be very straight but now has a slight wave. I've been told that I should be grateful to have thick hair, but I'm challenged to style it. Help!

Hey Sheila, send me an email and I can put you on my hair model list!

You mention to eat healthier, but you don’t specify what that means. Hair is made from protein, so you need high quality protein in the diet, which means animal protein. Plant proteins are by and large incomplete and not very bio available. When I increased my protein intake it made a huge difference in the thickness of my hair.

*Love this casual "chat" format* . I wish I had been better armed with knowledge like this prior to entering menopause at 50. My hair changes were a major self-esteem punch. It took me about two years to get things right. I had the hormonal issues causing thinning, I had years of hard water causing dullness, over washing causing dryness, and coloring/heat styling damage. I stopped coloring, worked my way into 2 washes/week, got a shower filter, used hard water clarifying s/c combos at least once a month, tried minoxidil but didn't like it and went with rosemary/peppermint/green tea tonic. My hair improved and also became wavy, so I embraced it. Healthy salt and pepper hair is just fine with me. I do use bond builders and a protein treatment about every six weeks at this point. I always had fine strands, but they are baby fine these days.

Thank you so much for sharing, Dionna had these thoughts and feelings as well - I'm glad you liked the casual chat format

I'm 55 and have fine, thin hair. The color is a nice silver gray but no matter what hot tool I use on it, my hair scorches. My hair gets a nasty, ugly yellow tinge to it that only goes away with purple shampoo. Is there anyway to stop this? I use heat protectant but, obviously, it's not enough. Due to the my hair type, I have to use heat to get volume and to stop frizz. Please help!

I have one major question about dry shampoo that I'm hoping you can answer - Why is it better to apply all of those chemicals found in dry shampoo to hair and scalp than it is to simply rinse with water and/or shampoo as normal? Do we really know how the chemicals in dry shampoos impact our bodies?

@raraavis7782

Basic dry shampoo actually has a pretty simple formulation. Something like this (this is the one I use): BUTANE, PROPANE, ALCOHOL DENAT, ORYZA SATIVA STARCH, CETRIMONIUM CHLORIDE, PANTHENOL. Nothing offensive in there. Of course, others may have added fragrance and other stuff. But if you're worried about irritation, just check and compare the labels and choose accordingly. You could even try using just the starch. Although applying it without the convenience of a pressurized bottle is somewhat cumbersome.

Oh, I don't know...dihydrogen monoxide is pretty scary stuff, if you ask me. You can drown in it and everything. (that's sarcasm, in case it wasn't obvious). Why would you assume, that butane and propane are harmful to you? I mean, if 'used as intended', obviously. They're just gasses, just like oxygen and carbon dioxide, which you breathe in and make in your own body, respectively. You even produce your very own methane in your large intestine. Butane and propane have been safely used in spray bottles and other applications for 50+ years. You're statistically far more likely to have a bad reaction to 'all natural' essential oils used for fragrance or alcohol used as a conservative, to avoid 'chemical' ones (as if alcohol isn't a chemical). I mean, be extra careful and all that, by all means. I'm not saying, we should just blindly use everything, that's put in front of us, when it comes to cosmetics or food. But at least do a basic google search or something, before you condemn some ingredient. Or listen to people with medical degrees or PhD's, who have made it their mission to teach the public about what's worth worrying about and what isn't. They're not hard to find on KZread.

Agreed!

Has anyone tried an overnight Hydrating Treatment? It is to be applied to lengths and ends and left in overnight with no need to rinse in the morning. Sounds like it might help with dry, brittle, frizzy, over 40 hair. I know there are a number of companies who offer such products - Kerastase is one. Has anyone tried such a product and if so, does it make a difference?

Yep... unfortunately all of those changes apply to my hair

@@justinhickox it may be because I stopped coloring it ? I colored it for 30+ years and am just over it.

While there are many helpful tips here, I am going to disagree with a few things. My scalp never gets oily and I credit this to the fact that I actually use conditioner from roots to ends. I actually only ever have to wash my hair to refresh the style, not to remove any greasiness. The concept is similar to how using facial oils can help control your skin's oiliness. Second, I find almost all of the Sodium Laureth Sulphate alternatives to be MORE drying to my hair. My hair type is wavy, thick, and coarse. Everyone's hair is different, but for some hair types sulphates are perfectly fine and they have been wrongly villianized in the haircare community. Another thing I do which may have been mentioned in this video, is I apply oil to the ends of my hair before shampoo, and oil to the ends after my hair is dry. Also, if anyone is looking for the cheapest, yet most deeply moisturizing conditioner available on the market, that would be the Aussie 3 minute miracle.

I let my hair dry naturally regardless of how it may be a little frizzy at times. Using a good conditioner helps a lot. Embrace your age. You are fine the way you are!
