Hi Friends!
I'm Afope, welcome to my channel!
I'm a trichologist (a fancy word for a hair & scalp specialist) and a cosmetic chemist in training. On this channel, I talk about all things hair science & hair care to give you the tools you need to understand your hair better, and support you along your journey to healthier hair! Everything from how to pick and use the right products/utensils for your hair, or finding the best growth supplements, to combatting hair loss & scalp conditions - I'M YOUR GIRL :)
As a full-time working (and studying) girl, I do my best to put out a video at least every couple weeks!

Try AG haircare. They have four silicone free shampoo/conditioner/ deep conditioner/ clarifier/ stylers and leave in
1. Completely detangle your hair with slippery detangler. 2. Section and shampoo/clarify. 3. Apply protein. 4. Apply heat for 5-10mins. Until product is sticky, but not dry. 4. Add conditioner that conditions and moisturizes. Massage into hair to break up hard cast. 5. Rinse after 15-30mins. Product on hair for ~40mins. Adjust your application for your hair type.
The glycol in the conditioning category are humectants
Hi I'm new to your channel! 🤦🏾♀️Where did you buy your Revair - can't buy in UK!!! 2024 and still trying to purchase one...
Great video! Do you recommend fine hair be blow dryed or left in natural state?
I use blue magic the green one or the aloe vera vitamin e one as a deep conditioner
I think the difference between your video and her video is the difference between regular people talking science and scientists talking science. Well done
My honest hair growth journey: focus on sleep, keep scalp cleanliness, shampoo less and hydrate more, get frequent trims, brush hair daily, and use liitlllextrra reactivaate serum regularly. It includes rosemary and other helpful ingredients that consistently promote the growth of fresh baby hairs.
Best video on this topic
I love you for this vid. It’s so validating
Hi what are your thoughts on the differences between this product and the aphogee protein treatment?
I absolutely use water to reduce frizz. Im 3c multi textured curly hair
hair does not have a PH, the PH mentioned in scientific literature is the pH of the F layer, which is a layer that contains fat+water provided by the relative humidity of the air, not the protein itself. PH can only be measured in an aquatic environment when a substance ionizes the water, and for ionization to take place, this matter needs to be dissolved to release its charges into the water, when you wet your hair it does not fall apart.
cuticle does not raise or lower. What occurs is a radial expansion of the cortex that pushes the cuticles, increasing the space between them. This movement is called swelling. No serious scientific literature states that the human hair cuticle can open and close. If you find an article that says this, it is very possible that it was commissioned by a brand to defend its own interests, such as selling products that "seal cuticles" and "balance pH", hair does not have pH but rather pI( isoelectronic point)
This has helped me so much ❤❤❤
June 2024 I really miss you on KZread but I understand the burden of the time commitment to make these videos. You are very knowledgeable and broke down the scientific information for lay people. I appreciate your help. Thank you
Make a video on surfactants that are milder than sulfates
8:30 yes make a video on that
0:55
Excellent video! Thank you!
I rarely use heavy products unless I’m going to an event and need hairspray/mousse so no need for clarifying shampoos unless I’m doing a chemical treatment. I also like Camille Rose but they don’t need to put an oil in a shampoo
Kinky curly is not strong enough for my hair so in use wetline extreme gel....flaxseed gel has protein right????????

I don’t know why I like watching these videos. My comb is enough for me and I get it all done in 45 minutes.
This is a compliment. These videos are so fascinating, even though they’re not irrelevant to my life, lol. You guys all look so beautiful and so do the brushes and then it’s just fun watching the brush glide through your gorgeous hair. You do you!
I know glycerin helps alot.
I also recommend @RodrigoMenha's channel, he also explains chemically about hair, there is a video where he talks about proteins in hair, the channel is Brazilian
Please stretch your hair and do a good trim. I saw a little webbing and some stringy ends.
It may also have a relationship with the climate, in cold weather the hair will take a long time to evaporate and water would stay in contact with the hair for a long time, which would harm it.
I'm wondering if this same protocol works on skin in other areas or maybe all over. Has anyone tried this? Dr?
that myth-busting-PPE-finger-clasp-and-smile was so good LOOL
One Love Cowash by The Doux has saved every shampoo mistake 😂. Followed up by Argan Oil Silicon Mix Leave In. That combo recovers my hair... Silicone plus silicone means i don't have to rip my hair out
I wish I could like this multiple multiple times🥺❤️ God bless you
Someone who isn't a scientist critiquing someone who isn't a scientist.
You are incorrect when you say "Ain't nobody with curly or coiled hair out here trying to use a water base or moisture product in there hair" first off do you know how many people live on the planet ?You can not know nor speak for over 8.1 billion people in the world. I mean, for real, people are actually putting baking soda in their hair, trying to remove hair color. So, your statement is not only incorrect but also arrogant. Also, your so called credentials are not even close to Sarah Ingle's. ( at the time you made this video) I checked. Stop misrepresenting your knowledge. All you have is offensive arrogance and so you know a scientist would never make the statement you made. Scientist do not assume "everbody" thinks the same or acts the same. It is the the difference in each person that gives us what is called "Variables ". So, in closing please reign in your self inport arrogance.
Will this help with damage hair
No
Great was day, loved it!
My hair is to the middle of my neck and im crying cause i get comments on me like ugly, fat, stupid and no one likes me evryone hates me..

This is the most informative video I have ever watched in a long time. I quite literally wrote everything you said in my notes app. THANKYOU SO MUCH!!
4:25 for lists of ingredients. For people who come back to check like me!
What are your thoughts on the Cecred shampoos?
Just found out about you today, you're wonderful!!
I really liked this video and I know I am a bit late to the game, but it's still relevant! I have been looking at different ways to handle my unruly wavy hair and fell on CGM and on this video. One thing I dislike about CGM is that it sort of has this 'holier than thou' aura since it purports to get you healthy hair with usually "green", "clean", low poo products that are sulfate-free and silicone-free! The no poo movement is sort of the same. The message is always sulfates bad, toxic, evyl, polluting! I tried low poo before it was a thing and it gave me a bad scalp condition. I tried CGM's mechanical suggestions (finger detangling, squish to condish, that kind of stuff) and I ended up pulling out more hair than I ever have while in the shower. Once out of the shower, I looked like a frizz ball, which takes some doing because my hair usually lies flat on my scalp and coils or waves anywhere from above the ear to just past my neck. That was the only thing I was interested in out of the whole CGM. Co-washing is a terrible idea if you have an oily scalp like me, low poo is terrible for the same reasons (and even worse if you have hard water). Honestly, in my view the best message they send out is to adapt to your curls, waves, coils, and try to find what works out best for them and not to straighten them away as soon as they appear. This is a good lesson for me because my mother and grandmother both had "frizzy hair" and thus forced straight hair onto me to "fit in" to what they believed was socially acceptable.
Why so rude tho? Just comment and provide your point. No need to act stuck up just because your ego is clearly attached to your qualifications.
What was rude about this video? She even complimented Sarah and agreed with the overall content of her video. Why do you feel she has no right as another human being to disagree a little with Sarah?
You are the best! I miss you! When are you going to start uploading new videos?
I use keracare leave in conditioner and its the best for blow drying and maintaining moisture heat protectors ruin my hair because of all the silicone ingredients feels soft for about a day then goes like straw makes my hair feel like it's coated with plastic so I always use silicone free products 👍👍✨️
What are your thoughts on Clays ? Rhassoul and bentonite ?
