I tried the oil rinse Sunday December 5th that was my wash day. I used Avacado oil. My hair came out beautifully. It was soft and manageable. I had no knots. And it stayed soft for the whole week. I didn't have to add any oil on top of my hair. I only had to grease the scalp. I will definitely be doing this again. My hair loves it. Thank you Curly Chemistry for sharing!❤️❤️🙏

As a new natural. This advice saved my high porosity hair. Thank you!

Nice! 3:12 for the process 3:26 for suggested oils

Wow! Again another tip shared that I've already incorporated. So glad to know that I'm really on the right track 👏🏽

The information in this week’s video was informative, very well presented, and ideally timed for the beginning of winter. Thank you!

Thank you so much!! I will be starting this Technique on my next wash day! I always get so much helpful information from your videos.

I am going to try this with my next wash!...I'm always excited about your videos.

Oil rinses have never done me wrong. Whenever I do them, my hair is so much easier to detangle. I don't know why I would never not do them, other than laziness. Oil rinses and ACV rinses have been the most helpful for detangling. But if I had to choose just one of those, I would go with oil rinses.

Definitely adding this method tomorrow on wash day! Thanks for the great tips. Going back to grease has helped me in my hair routine

Oil has always been my best friend for treating and locking in moisture. So glad I watched this video explaining it helps so much. Thank you

Yes Mam straight to the point!! Good info.. Definitely going to try it!!!

Best thing that has been working for me since I’ve been watching your channel is prepooing with coconut oil and also using the PMP method. I’m definitely going to try the oil rinse. I’ve used both methods on my boyfriend’s hair as well and he loves it lol

It’s a triangle - moisture, protein, oil balance 🔥🔥🔥 Makes so much sense!

I used to do these alllll the time in high school and I stopped for whatever reason, but now my scalp is thanking me for bringing this back !!

I truly appreciate all of your content. Thank you.

I'm going to give this a try. Let me watch again so I can get it right in my head.

Hey! Well I’m indeed going to try this I’m excited for the results. What has worked for me is routinely deep conditioning my hair and taking my time not rushing to get it done but taking my time building and growing healthy scalp and hair! Thank you for sharing!

Hey Tonya! I love your videos! I wanted to know if you could make videos about protein treatments when to use them, what’s the difference between a deep conditioner/hair mask and regular conditioner, winter hair care how to protect your winter during the winter, what’s your hair care routine look like…. Thanks!

Love the topic. What helps me is that I don't forget to oil before I start wash day. Yes prepoo. But my favorite is to get that diy growth oil blend on my scalp and hair with some deep conditioner on my hair ends but don't rinse it out. Like making my own leave in product with what I have on hand. Sometimes I have to much oil so I rinse it with cold it cool water. My hair and I are happy. 🦋🥰

this is fairly new to me and i will try this tomorrow night after get off work. thanks!

I always learn something. Thanks Curly Chemistry!😊💕. I’ve been doing it for my hair after I wash…

Twist are my most helpful tool for length retention. It keeps my hair stretched and moisturized. It also cuts down on fairy knots.

I'm planning on using your method on oil rinsing on my next shampoo! One of the things that has help me is Hot oil treatment, I've just started this in the last Few months, I can see some good changes in my hair thickening also strengthening!!! Thanks again for all your help!

Hi Tonya, this is so timely. I’ve been meaning to ask you how I use oil for moisture retention for my LP hair. Wash day is tomorrow so I can’t wait to try this 😀 And I use a warm coconut oil pre-poo for detangling/avoiding hygral fatigue but I’ve been noticing that it’s been helping with my length retention too 😊

Thanks again for this tip. I typically use Vaseline on my hair following my leave-in and focus on applying it more to my ends and then two strand twist. I have thick strands just above my bra strap, so it really keeps my hair moisturized and sealed for days. But I will try grapeseed oil as you suggested and see how it feels. If it doesn't provide the same moisturization as Vaseline, I'll go back to Vaseline. Thank you for sharing all your amazing knowledge....and your hair is thriving. Beautiful!

I do this quite often. I choose a "thin" oil and I mostly oil rinse after I have conditioned it. I start with hot water to rinse, then end with cool. I try not to use a lot of oil (just a quarter size or so) and palm the oil through my hair while it mixes with the water. I squeeze and palm. This really helps me get out any shed hairs that might be lingering, as I have rather medium to fine strands (depending on what area of my head it is) and I am not good with using a comb.

Ahhh this makes a lot of sense! I love how your videos aren't padded with a bunch of bs to make them longer, it actually makes me watch them to the end instead of skipping around 20 min trying to find what the video is actually about! I'm going to try this :) Would you still apply a protective oil after your leave in?

I am going to try this oil rinse out on my hair. Tyfs. What I think has helped me with length retention is low manipulation of my hair when I wash and deep condition my hair I two strand twist my hair (making sure my scalp and hair is oiled) then I usually wear my headband wig throughout the work week to protect my natural hair. 🥰🥰

keeping my hair up in twists/braids has definitely helped me w/ length retention🙌

I’ll definitely try oil rinsing thanks for the tip!!

Hi - thanks for your video - I have locs for the second time & oil rinsing makes the difference. I wash my hair with natural shampoo until the suds are shiny, next I gently squeeze out some of the water. I drench my hair & scalp with oil I choose & use a plastic bag to hold the oil in for at least 15 minutes. In the shower I put conditioner on then rinse both out, squeezing my locs as the warm water flows through. My hair loves this routine. Afterwards my hair only needs a little oil on each loc - I live in a dry climate but the length retention & happy scalp is happening.

Thanks-I’ll try this on my next wash day 👍🏽

What has helped me retain length and maintain healthy hair is NOT using heat on my hair whatsoever. I ALWAYS Pre-poo my hair before each shampoo and allow my hair to air dry ALWAYS. Tonya, I do plan to try the oil rinse on my next wash day. Thanks again Tonya for laying down the knowledge!!

Very informative, cant wait to try the oil method. For me, regular conitioning of my hair (especially the ends) has helped tremendously.

The game changer for me, was after an overnight prepoo, and before washing my hair, I add sweet almond oil - paying special attention to my ends. This made detangling 90% easier. When you say our hair loves oil, I had no idea to what extent. Thank you so much.

Great info thanks Doc🌹

I just tried it today, I used grapeseed oil and so far it makes my hair feel soft and moist compared to when I do the LCO method. I will continue doing it and see how it helps with length .

Love the technique for oil rinsing, I will try this but I'm gonna need to tweak the application process. I can't put oil in my drain. Rather we never have in my house and my momma was / is the fry queen. I can't count the old pickle jars we kept for old grease. I just got a portable shampoo bowl. I think I'll try this in there 🤔. What has helped me retain leghth I believe a variety of things. No heat, maybe once or twice a year, keeping my hair in twist lco I'm low porosity and my ends pined up with Bobby pins, I seal with hair butter and grease.. I'll probably stop buying butters grease works great I think it last longer on my hair. Old school blue magic does the trick. Oh yeah and my teas.

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Keeping my ends moisturized, detangled and snipping ends when feeling rough. Not a lot but a little so the ends remain smooth. I have a lot of gray which has taken me a few years to learn what to do because gray can be so fragile.

Hi. I use coconut oil every other wash day and I use Alevera juice on the opposite week.

Thank you so much. I would be interested to know what you feel about emu, shea, and wheat germ oils for hair care.

This information is gold! A new way to add oil to our hair. Perfect for the winter season. Thank you so much Tonya! I use DIY growth oils to massage my scalp as well as hot oil treatments as a pre-poo. Found these steps to be very helpful. I also will use Curlsmith's Oil-In-Cream as.a second step after my Leave-in and sometimes as my leave-in conditioner. 💜 💜

Making sure that I follow my moisture schedule to ensure my hair doesn’t become dry and dull. And my ever faithful two strand twist.

I did oil rinse first because I blow dried and used a hot brush to straightened. I thought if oil rinse was last, there would be to oily to straighten.

I use coffee, clove oil and use as a hair Rinse. This truly works.

I love grease and oils. I use them both on my wash day.

hey there! I'm so excited to try this! I've been using onion juice for the last two months which has helped me combat excessive shedding and retain length. However I would love to know your thoughts on the black castor oil :is it better for a pre-poo or a an oil rinse?

Hair vitamins has helped a great deal. 😊

This is so crazy to hear because I've always done this. I never understood the loc or lco because I've always felt like oil after conditioner made more sense since leave ins leave a film on the hair

LOL! I just left a comment on your video about Reverse Washing Natural Hair video about oil rinsing not realizing that you had made a video months ago about oil rinsing. The technique that I used is shampooed my hair twice, applied warmed oil, detangled my hair, rinsed out the oil, applied conditioner, and rinsed out the conditioner. For the oil, I warmed a mix of coconut oil, avocado oil, macadamia oil, grapeseed oil & pumpkin seed oil. My hair was so soft after applying the oil, I could have skipped applying the conditioner. I will try skipping the conditioner next time. I will also try different oil mixtures in the future, but will still warm it up. I've tried hot oil treatments and overnight hair oiling in the past, but they didn't make my hair look and feel as good as oil rinsing.

Great idea! I’ve never heard of Oil Rinsing before today. Thank You! Sounds like something I’ll try before braiding my hair this week… I can attribute keeping my hair in braided styles that I carefully install myself AND using Olaplex 0 & 3 to my length retention (4 inches this past year) ❤️

I just put the oil in my clean sink full of water (sometimes distilled water) and dunk my head in it like I'm washing my hair and swish my hair around. Since oil and water don't mix all the oil easily goes in my hair and it's super simple with no mess

Low manipulation, oiling and sealing my ends with hair grease. Also hair vitamins and once per month alma protein treatments.

Thank you for this.

Gotcha, Doing it thanx!!!

As usual, full of info and vibes! My worry though, wouldn't the oil make the hair greasy and weigh it down ?

Sealing with castor oil helped with my length retention

Great video! Can you oil rinse and heat style?

Hey gorgeous 😍 great video ,I HAVE PSORIASIS IN MY SCALP WHICH OIL YOU THINK IT WOULD BEST FOR ME PLEASE . AND WHICH PRODUCT THAT I CAN RELY ON SO I DON'T GET ANY FLARE UP PLEASE .GOD BLESS YOU 🙌

Keeping my hair moisturized, wearing mini twists often, less daily hair manipulation & keeping my hair stretched has helped me with length retention. My hair is shoulder length my goal is armpit/bra length hopefully in 2 yrs.

Hi Tonya, I'm interested in getting your advice for keeping locks moisturized? Since I don't wash as often I don't think grease would work on the hair? If I am correct would you review what would work in preventing breakage/thinning if the most distal end of the loc?

Nice video! Any words on using flaxseed oil?

I detangling with oil and water to take out my braids or however my hair is Then I wash my hair with shampoo Use condtionner and oil and water without rinsin it Between two wash day I use fenugrec juice (water and fenugrec's seeds are boiled together and grind together ) with a small amount of chantily....the smell is strong but i'm used to it

I mostly use prepoo on my low porosity hair. Like you said this won’t work for everyone. I think it’s great for high porosity hair and people with a lot of hair or coarse hair. I tried oil rinse on my fine hair and it was a desasterrrr. Because my hair is low porosity, it doesn’t need extra locking…. But i did recommend this to some of my clients. Girl great video…. 😘

Saturation with water first for my low porosity areas cause oil rinsing to be as effective for me. I have to change the water temps and it is usually the last part of my hair I oil rinse. I will often put styling product on that portion right after, before I get out of the shower, to make sure that also "gets in" and doesn't sit on top of the strands.

Question: How do we deal with hard water and our hair/scalp health?

Good information. I use a mixture of avocado, olive, jojoba, hemp seed, castor and almond oil with a few drops of essential oils; peppermint and bay. I slather it on root to tip (after DC is rinsed out), wash my body so it can sit for a few; them rinse it out. My hair loves it. By the way, I have low porosity hair that I keep twisted. I will rehydrate mid-week, twist it up again. And, because I wear wraps this helps with not having to style my hair all the time. I have notice more length since doing this.
