Oh my goodness that last tip though 😂 It’s too relatable. After my grandma passed, you better believe I went to the salon with my naturally black hair and asked for Kim K’s icy blonde with black root look. 8 hours later, I’m still at the salon and exhausted and I say to my stylist “gosh, how does she have the time for this all the time??” And my stylist laughed and said “you know it’s a wig right?” Anyways here we are 5 years later and I’m still coping with the damage it caused. But at least my research led to me to this channel! 😂 ❤

That's so funny

[@katb4060]

Your tip on being gentle with your hair is the one that has made the best difference for me! I don’t get my hair colored or use a lot of heat, so for me the biggest source of damage is mechanical on my fine hair. I can really tell a difference by brushing and styling more carefully!

[@AbbeyYung]

Omg good I'm so glad

[@shawnariggs2485]

It really makes all the difference in the world. I started this a while back because my hair was getting somewhat damaged, but already quite long and it makes such a difference!

[@shannilovely]

The best hair of my life was during the pandemic. I washed it every 3 days, let it air dry and used no heat or highlights. It grew like a weed and I didn’t have one single split end in sight!

[@jolilavieri2186]

Omg every stylist I’ve been to has always yanked through my soaking wet hair, not starting at the ends, and before applying leave ins and then being sooo aggressive with their round brushes when drying!! Ever since watching your videos it makes me cringe when they do it 😅😅 thank you for sharing such important information on all your channels!!

[@Miss.ducharme]

So true for the round brush. I feel the same everytime I go to the salon

[@rachelanastasia0001]

I so relate to this

[@sunnyday8628]

I agree with you 100% I have no idea why so many STYLISTS and I'm sorry to bash them but there are some HORRIBLE STYLISTS out there they take the towel and rub it ALL over your HEAD HARD then they whip the comb through your head or brush I personally think if STYLIST starts to do that and they don't want to listen to what you're saying I think you should get out of the chair and WALK AWAY RUN AWAY because to me they're NOT a good STYLIST if that's how they're going to do your HAIR and they haven't even started cutting yet which also brings me to SCISSOR HAPPY STYLISTS ugh another scary situation and a WHOLE nother conversation that I have OCD and TRAUMA from now ugh😔

[@Amaonsbru]

I have silver/platinum bleached blonde hair (done at a salon of course), so breakage and damage is inevitable for me. Though I find that a lot of the tips and product recs you have given has still helped sooo much! My hair has never been this long and 'healthy' during my 4 years as a platinum blonde! Thank you! ❤

[@hanh3260]

How do you deal with breakage? Any tips? I’ve had copper hair for about a year now and I have a lot of breakage but I’m unsure which product to buy (olaplex 3 didn’t help at all)

[@tarski7420]

So helpful! Curious if you’d want to do an update on your fave ways to heatless style your hair? Whether it’s for a wavy or straight look. And also if you have recommendations for hair that goes frizzy when letting it air dry. Thanks for sharing your tips!

[@Chinnychinchin369]

Minerals in the water can dull your color or make it brassy (but it’s also the ashy toner washing out each time you wash revealing the natural state of your stripped hair straight after bleaching and before toner was applied). Ever since my hair is bleached lighter past the orange stage and more towards that pale yellow (inside of the banana color0 I don’t fight brass as hard as I used to anymore. Purple shampoos when overused can actually dull and darken your hair, because each time you use it it’s just depositing ashy pigments onto your hair and this can build up. Also, old school purple shampoo used to be drying and now they make nicer formulas that are not drying. I find you get the best results if you use a really good chelating shampoo first then use the purple shampoo afterwards so that you remove mineral deposits and then put on the ashy deposit. Another route is using a chelating shampoo first then using a purple conditioner (or making your own by mixing a semi-permanent dye into conditioner). You can’t just dump it on your head; it’s better to apply evenly in sections and if you’re mixing your own you have to formulate the color carefully. If the purple has too much blue in it and your hair is yellow, you will get green hair.

[@kaitnicol4255]

Lots of great advice here! I love your emphasis on combing through the BS of marketing claims, like sulfate free or untrue marketing benefit claims. The haircare space is so difficult to comb through misinformation! I would also be really interested to hear if you have thoughts on environmental impacts with haircare, and claims that may be true or false about the damage of certain ingredients to the hair and the environment (eg. I agree with the benefits of silicones, but am wary if they are actually classed as microplastics for water contamination).

[@TacosAllDay247]

Thanks for the advice Abbey! Love the Halloween decor!!

[@nbusser]

Great video. Learning about your hair is so important. I only recently learned about porosity and that I have low porosity hair. I changed all of my hair products and my hair is the best it has felt in years.

[@kathyo9420]

I love a clarifying shampoo. I went years without one, then used one and followed with a good hair mask was life changing. My hair hadn't felt that soft and looked so good in years. But I also applaud your comments about product overload! I have wavy to curly hair and cannot tolerate the amount of product that most KZbinrs say we should use. It's unbelievable. I watched a woman with long hair use four pumps of a product for her curls, and then another woman with hair just touching her shoulders used six or seven of the same product, then used a towel to scrunch out the "excess" product. Gee, if only there was something she could do to not put in too much product 🤔

[@user-vu8pm4dw6d]

Please could you recommend am affordable clarifying shampoo and hair mask? Every shampoo I use dries out my hair

Hey Abbey, I love the new setup and I am also from MN! Thanks for always sharing so much information and your reasoning behind your decisions

[@angelag669]

Abbey, I have changed how I do my hair so much since watching you. About six years ago the texture of my hair changed dramatically. Thanks to menopause I went from really straight hair to wavy/curly. When my hair was straight I washed it every night, went to bed wet and brushed it out in the morning. Strangely, my hair stayed in pretty good shape. Once my hair was curly I went down the whole curly hair rabbit hole. I stopped using sulfates and silicones and the whole thing. However, even using heavy conditioners and leave ins, my hair didn't look or feel great. I have now added back sulfates for clarifying and using silicones again (amodimethicone anyone?) and my hair is doing much better. I have also starting using hair oil especially on my ends as a pre-treatment. Thank you so much for all you do.

[@AbbeyYung]

I'm so so glad to hear that!! My mom also had really similar changes to her hair due to menopause... so interesting how hormones impact our hair.

[@Cherylebreaux]

I can so relate to the changes in hair texture from menopause! I have let my natural gray come in and while I love it, I also hate it because it's so different than my stick straight brown hair I was born with. Now it's wavy and the frizz! My God!

[@Jess-Rabbit]

Who wants to go to bed with wet hair.... gross

[@angelag669]

@@Jess-Rabbit Didn't bother me a bit. I just laid it out on my pillow and in the morning it was dry. I love washing my hair but hate styling it. If I could get away with not styling it now w/o it looking like a Lion King audition, I would.

[@Dupella]

​@@AG-nn8lpmaybe you do unconciously. Do you protect your hair while sleeping? Do you brush it correctly? Do you oil it and know about emolients, humectants and proteins and when to use them on your hair? Every hair can be saved (besides of I'll people's hair)

[@bucky7505]

@@Dupellathis is the big question! those things add up the most over time I think. are you brushing way too aggressively, is the diet lacking in anything, are you not protecting it before going out, etc.

[@connie6410]

I don't ever remember you talking about purple shampoo before, Abbey, so thank you for covering that one. I have warm blonde colored hair and I've been wondering if I should try it, but since I use a clarifying shampoo and don't live in an area with hard water, now I think I'll just skip it. Thanks for all the other great tips as well 💞

I have extremely hard water and used a lot of conditioner which made my hair limp and static prone. Since switching to a shampoo bar that is very natural and conditioning my hair has totally healed and all I need is a spray on leave in conditioner on the ends and a little booster spray. I love my hair now and it’s long and strong!

[@holly939]

Thank you so much for all the work you put in, I really appreciate you! I hope that one day you might do a dedicated video about how to treat thin fine hair. I follow your routine, but tbh I'm not sure I need a clarifying shampoo as my scalp is normal and I don't use leave-in products other than conditioner mid-length to ends. Speaking of which, since I need so little leave-in conditioner for my three hairs 🤣, would it be okay to add water to it to make application easier? Also, I've tried volumizing products and they all make my hair feel sticky or like straw. Any recommendations?

[@bucky7505]

i’m experiencing tons of shedding from stress, and what i believe is coupled with some harsh treatment of my hair. i bleached the underside too much the last few years, i wasn’t as gentle as I should’ve been, and went from one extreme to the next. For 7 years, I didn’t shampoo correctly at all, I fell down that whole “skip washes, use all natural, no sulfates) and my hair was so greasy! I didn’t pick up sulfates again until 2021! but then I wouldn’t condition every day, I’d sleep on wet hair constantly, and don’t have satin pillowcases, brushing roughly, and poor diet. I found your channel this morning because i was at such a loss of what to do. I have some things from Walmart in my cart right now. The Dove Dermacare Scalp health shampoo and conditioner, L’Oréal bond repair, a cleansing shampoo (V08) and the coconut oil you talked about! I’m going to be extremely thorough in how gentle I am, and also try the filter for the shower, if it’s apartment safe. I’ll update in a month! Wish me luck guys ❤

[@daisyjohnson7588]

Abbey! Would you consider doing a video of all your hard water hair recommendations? I know you've mentioned the shower filter before, but maybe the nitry gritty on chelating shampoos? Or any other tips and tricks you've developed. Or any other filters you think are worthwhile. I'm aure that one is great, the 165$ pricetag is just a bit steep

[@AliMaliGK017]

1.) Even though, I cannot afford the high end products yet, I have been so grateful for these tips of how to take care of my hair inside and outside of the shower. I have also noticed your drugstore hair care recommendations are always a 10/10 for me! Thank you Abby ❤️ 2.) I have always wondered what your thoughts are on Aveda hair products and if they are worth the extra coin. I get my hair done at an Aveda salon, and I guess their price points may be the same as some at Sephora/Ulta, just have never compared the two before.

[@shelby2493]

You don’t even need salon products for good results! The formulations are not far off from drugstore products the drugstore products are just a bit simpler. L’Oréal has 21 benefit leave in conditioner basically identical to pureologys leave in that Abby likes. L’Oréal and garnier has good hair masks and oils and shampoo and conditioners. You can 100% achieve healthy hair on a budget.

It would be helpful if you could include information on establishing a hair care routine, such as when to use oil, apply a moisturizing mask, serums, and hair creams.

[@jen7662]

The tools I’ve used which have been beneficial if I use consistently are: using un scented shampoo like Kristen Ess, when I do wash my hair, use warm vs hot water, dont brush wet hair, don’t blow dry if possible and for hair loss consider using pumpkin seed oil, rosemary oil. Dr. Drey is a good resource too for hair care tips.

[@lynds7708]

Lots of good tips. Just to say make sure you learn from your own hair journey. I have a different hair type, mine is wavy, not particularly frizzy but thick and coarse. My hair brushes super easy when soaking wet, particularly when I’ve just sprayed leave in conditioner, a comb or wet brush literally glides through. If I don’t brush when wet and try to brush when mostly dry, the knots dry in and are significantly more difficult to brush through

[@JustAnAverageWoman69]

Same here, and same hair type as you. I never have issues brushing my hair wet when using the right products.

[@carak4356]

I saw an interesting video on this exact thing on Lab Muffins channel she talked all about coily hair brushes with less friction when wet. Cool!

[@AbbeyYung]

Absolutely! I always want everyone to do what works best for them

[@daisyjohnson7588]

I have pretty straight hair but the routine I've come up with is 1) brush before I shower. So much easier to start with detangled hair before shampooing 2) after the shower brush it 100% soaking wet. Like very first thing, I toweled my hair, the brush is dripping water on my bath mat with every pass through my hair kind of soaking wet. Then leave aside from products just leavey hair alone until completely dry

The problem is that I have 3C curly hair and I don’t know if I’m using too many hair products or just the wrong ones but I still feel like I haven’t found the right routine that makes my hair look and feel great every time! Also I’m really trying to grow my hair long (which takes forever btw because of my super curly hair) but it’s challenging because I bleach my hair because I think it looks so beautiful and gives me so much confidence. And the way I see it, is that I might as well enjoy the journey while it grows longer rather than wait forever for it to grow long, but hating how it looks along the way. I hope I find the products and routine that work for my hair and that allow it to grow long faster.

[@pandadncr4825]

the reason i started using sulfate free shampoo a year ago is because i started dyeing my hair purple and using mild shampoos helps maintain the color (since it inevitably washes out due to the fact all hair colors are only semi permanent). it also helped bring out my naturally wavy texture even more. i do struggle with dry scalp and flakiness tho 😅

[@alishahemp8272]

If you don’t heat style after air drying how does your look so silky? How do you style it after 80-90% air dry?

Love your videos Abbey! You can tell that you look into things really thoroughly 🙂 Can i ask when you bleached your hair/had highlights put in last?

[@unperfectperfectionist]

Some comments on the color stuff. Purple shampoo is meant to add pigment to cancel out yellow/gold tones in the hair, which can have a "brightening" effect because the hair is a cooler tone (even though it's not actually lighter). As far as highlights go - going in with super dirty hair is fine if your highlights are done with bleach, but if you are using a permanent color to highlight, then you don't want to have super dirty hair because (theoretically) it could interfere with the color deposit

I liked that you mentioned your hair is fine and thick. Mine is too and so many “experts”; media and beauty editors don’t get that you can have thick fine hair. I feel like “good for all hair types is an incomplete sentence.

[@Vixin24]

Lol at that last tip. While I don't personally follow the Kardashians this can be applied to basically all celebrities and pictures in general we saw online. I really like my hairdresser since she's very blunt about things and whenever I bring her a picture of what I want my hair to look like she will always point out things like "Ok I can dye it that colour but you should know that that is a wig/they're wearing extensions/the lighting gives it that shine" etc. She's always very upfront about what the result will actually look like on my hair which I appreciate a lot. She also told me I shouldn't come with dirty hair if I want highlights or colour put in. She said its a very annoying misconception but that colour actually takes much better on clean hair. I was so shocked since I ALWAYS came with dirty hair to every hair appointment haha.

I always wash my hair the day before/day of any hair appointments out of courtesy to the hair stylist. No one wants to touch dirty hair, especially 7-day old

[@lexijones8019]

Exactly

[@AG-nn8lp]

Who goes 7 days without a wash?!

[@erinconti2543]

Your videos are incredible and so informative. Thank you so much!!

[@joannamarie_]

Yes! I've noticed such a difference since not using the blow dry brushes! I've used it like 3 times in 3 months now😌

[@BeYoutifulBombshell]

Abbey, do you still recommend washing 1 time a week for curly type 3c/4abc hair? Would you recommend conditioner washing/co-washing in between?

[@cathyhanson5885]

Hi Abbey, thanks for these suggestions. I have a question for you, I haven’t colored my hair in quite sometime but I’m getting ready to. A lot of my hair underneath has turned grey and I’m having a hard time getting it to curl but only on one side. After coloring it and covering the grey will that help in my hair curling better?

[@katycoffeymusic]

I want to stop bleaching my hair with highlights. How did you do this and blend the grow out phase of the highlights. I’m a medium / dark blonde naturally I want more of my natural colour with some subtle highlights without bleach x

[@marthedelaere5510]

Hi Abbey! Any tips for haircare if you go to the gym or run outside in rain/wind/sun everyday? You mentioned that the shower is a humid environment, however I shower every day, how can I protect my hair from that humidity. I only wash my hair every 4 days.

[@whitney1677]

How often do you think you need to replace the shower filter?

[@Msbichey]

@jenniferkenner1290 I read another comment here where the opp said she applies product immediately after shower... I agree. This is the only way I can use any type of hair product. My hair is so fine and thin that I only use a small, very small amount of any product..otherwise it's just a hot sticky oily mess with little knots that form out of no where. I do have a question, what would you recommend my first step be with really straight, fine, kinda thin hair...I am 52 but it's been like this all of my life lol.? I am looking t obviously get it healthy and yes it has been bleached in the past by me at home, last time about 6 months ago, maybe a little more. Also I trim my own hair which I am horrible at and now I have split ends I think caused from scissors not quite sharp enough. Suggestions???

[@ducklingscap897]

I feel like my hair want to compete with a lemon when I don’t use purple shampoo for a while 😅 but since my scalp is very sensitive and I struggle with purple shampoo I use a purple conditioner every two weeks. It works way better for me. I just wanted to comment that in case someone doesn’t know purple conditioner also exists.

[@elizabethssandor]

Kerastase Blonde Absolu has an amazing products for after salon blondes. I am using the range and I am super impressed.

[@LelandsMomma89]

I am mortified at all the damage I've done to my hair. Putting up the same way daily, drying my hair aggressively, applying products poorly, and based on their packaging details. I'm doing my best to repair. I'm going to take all your advice in this video. I have type 1B hair. Would you think that a silk or satin bonnet at night would be a good idea? Also, I'm a welder fabricator. What's the best material to wear to protect my hair from the gear that I wear? Thank you!

[@FaceItGrace]

Since you say your hair is frizzy and poofy if you don't apply a leave in conditioner after so long, I'd love to see you try styling your hair wavy curly! If I recall correctly you also said your sister has wavy hair forever ago. Love your videos!

[@noodez100]

Honestly your recommendations has changed the texture of my hair and made it so shiny. But my hair doesn’t grow long past chest area for some reason. Any recommendations?

[@melissabianchi6043]

What’s your favorite clarifying shampoo? Thanks!

[@cathyhanson5885]

I use to be rough with my hair but started treating my hair like it is fragile. Since my hip replacement 5 months ago my hair has been coming out so I’m trying to do everything I can to take care of it. I am using a good shampoo and occasionally a hair mask. I also let my hair dry on it’s own which I know is better then using heat every time I wash it. I. appreciate all you suggestions.

[@MakeUpTraffic]

It's not always better. Leaving hair wet for long is very damaging. It's best to use some high quality hair dryer on medium setting.

[@karinvancaspel]

Oh I’m so sorry for you! Hopefully it grows back now that the stressful incident is over. Massaging your scalp, using rosemary oil, minoxidil or the virtue density booster can really help “activating” those hair follicles again. Even micro needling might help? Just everything to get that healthy blood back into your scalp :) But mostly your body will probably do it on its own🙏🏻💕

[@cathyhanson5885]

@@karinvancaspel Thanks so much for all your suggestions, I appreciate that.🌸🌸

[@jenniferkenner1290]

Tip for fragile hair: apply a leave-in conditioner immediately as you are getting out of the shower and comb through with a tangle teezer or a wide-toothed comb. I use a microfiber towel and I also use little to no heat. People who have hair that stays wet alll day need to lightly dry theirs but mine dries pretty quickly and the leave-in conditioner protects it from the evaporative damage that can occur (kind of like wetting chapped lips makes them worse).

[@AbbeyYung]

This will make a huge difference in your hair in the long run. Also, something I learned about post-surgery hair loss in my Trichology course is that it begins 2-3 moths after the surgery and stops about 3 months after it starts. Thank goodness it's only short term xx

[@lisab2543]

My hair has never looked better since finding your channel. Your advice makes a difference and I appreciate it. ❤

[@AbbeyYung]

YAY!

[@lacialysia6913]

I feel like sulfate free shampoo doesn't keep my hair clean as long nor does it clean my hair as good as sulfate shampoo. Your supposed to wait till your hair is like 70% dry before using the revlon one step. Otherwise you'd be there drying it alot longer.

[@ylvaseason]

Is the shark air wrap worth it or will it just cause damage? I´ve watched so man videos trying to figure it out and everyone says different things, is it the brush-attachments that you should try to not use?

[@kamilairlik9348]

One question on Tip 6: if you don't comb/brush through your wet hair how do you distribute evenly K18, conditioners or masks? I always thought brushing these products in the hair helps...

[@TheVegan6]

About the last thing: do not ever ever let conditioner dry in your hair & go to sleep. For some reason letting large amounts of regular conditioner dry in your hair creates horrific tangles. There's an upper limit to how much conditioner is actually detangling

[@AbbeyYung]

Truth I did this once because I forgot to rinse out conditioner (shows you how exhausted I was lol) and my hair felt HORRIBLE

[@zukini8763]

Been there! I figured out it's because conditioners also have some "cleansers" in them so that the conditioner rinses out of the hair.

[@MaryWood86]

Can I ask how often you go to the hair salon for you high lift tints? Thanks Abs

[@peggyhon2569]

You mentioned that what made your hair a mess was bleach.. What do you use to colour your hair? My hair suffered due to my last visit to the hair salon.. The hairdresser fried my hair and I faced hair loss for some time.. My hair was really nice but she turned it into a mess.. I need to hrad back to the salon after 9 months.. Any suggestions? I am so afraid of bleaching

[@josie3571]

Your color is amazing, what do you do colorwise?

[@spiritualyin]

i love your content! I believe you the most 🥰🙌🏼 What do you think about the brand Kerastase ?

[@nessyfay]

What kind of hairstyles would you suggest when you need your hair off the shoulders for work/needs to be up? I usually do a braided bun.

[@josephtari6767]

This chick gives seriously accurate advice that helped me grow my hair and also keep it healthier since watching her videos maybe 6 months ago 👌

[@shawnariggs2485]

I definitely use a lot of the K 18 but it personally gives me the worst headaches in the world even when the first time I used it the proper amount that they recommended so I just kind of use however much I feel like leave it in for 10 minutes or whatever and then I rinse it out because otherwise I get the worst headache for quite a while. I may be alone in this, but it’s just some thing I experience seems like it does some thing good to my hair though. Revlon is my go to as well I don’t typically use them every time either tho also never super wet
