A SOLUTION FOR THIN HAIR AND LOCS

[@sharniamurray9847]

Water is a moisturizer. Oil is a sealer. Oil seals moisture in. Water is H2O. Two oxygen atoms and one Hydrogen atom. The reason there is an -ate at the end of hydrate is because oxygen is present. So the word hydrate in itself comes from WATER. Just a little education. Chemistry was one of my favorite subjects. And I do understand that it is good practice to seal water with something oily but I wouldn't want other people to hear this and believe that water is not hydrating when it is the reason the words hydrate and hydration exist.

[@msjackson012]

sharnia murray thank uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu I was just reading these comments and smh ...the way he speaks about water is wrong.

[@sharniamurray9847]

Asia Jackson the way he was talking about water was making me clutch my imaginary pearls. He is entertaining but he is not educated. People need to read and do their own research!

[@nyxsyn]

I was wondering about that statement also. I typically spritz water with a bit of essential oil mixed for scent and then use jojoba to help sealing that moisture.

[@cjaygoa4836]

Water H2O is actually 2 hydrogen atoms & 1 oxygen atom. The 2 represents the hydrogen, oxygen stands alone and is understood as 1 atom.

[@clphelps20]

His client's hair is always amazing...healthy and they never lose locs!!! He MUST be doing something right... his clients too... water gets the hair wet, it does not keep it MOISTURIZED... once the water dries, it's just dry...adding oil will keep the hair and scalp moist/hydrated after the water dries... it really does makes so much sense...

[@callieduval3000]

I wish you were my loctician I would be making appointments just to hear you teach! I love your knowledge and passion.

[@Queenintheblack]

Damian you're so sweet to talk to your customers and let them know what you see what you think...thank you for sharing your knowledge...!! really thank you!!!

[@mistiscales3423]

I love how he takes the time to explain things and information u need

[@monica8399]

I wish you could do someone with thin hair because I have that problem and I want to see how it would look.

[@LaDonnaWalton]

I watched you video on conditioning your hair and it saved my life. listening to theses goofballs on KZbin I stoped doing it. Had my hair looking like a scarecrow and I know better. Thank you hun so much You are helping people, well you helping me.

[@tbrwn2548]

All I spray on my hair is water, my locks don't crack or break like they use to. I spray them at least once a day so water is doing some kind if moisturizing. I also have tried many oils for my dandruff and when I started using coconut oil It left all of a sudden. I also use beeswax when I twist. I have zero breakage and buildup. I have had locks for 20 years, and yes I do condition my locks. You need to wash the conditioner out under water longer.

[@darkmid9t671]

Dreadlocks has been around for centuries among the Asian African traditional herbal priestess and priest and other race as well....there was nothing there for them to even put in their hair yet I knew and was told by my great grand parents that their hair was long and beautiful...In recent years people think that they are the gurus of locs and that there was a documented way in taking care of your locs....The type of hair texture,colour,density is all due to our genes, way of life,weather and other environmental factors....So there is no magic cream and oil that will make your hair look identical to another person...Is just hair which grows so ladies and gentlemen stop wasting your money on products and stylist which pollute the earth and waste your time respectively...

[@darkmid9t671]

The Chatty Few I'm not saying don't wash yout hair....you have to wash it Ofcourse..however is about the recent products which are supposed to grow and better hair that's what I was referring to...

[@MoniMeka]

Water is moisture. It just drys up like the Most High intended. You have to seal your hair with a thick oil or grease (I'm not loced) Also, you must keep watering your hair. Put water based products.on it as well so it can constantly be getting moisture.

[@AquaLady153]

That doesn't make sense

[@ReiOfSunahine]

Exactly

[@reneeellis6333]

I know this is old but thank you for the great information. Especially about the using water on your locs. And the information about the oil. Thank you so very much.

[@tamarmichelle5933]

I love my damian, but if he don't take that solution out of that windex bottle!! Lol Every time I see it at first i think he's putting windex in ppls heads

[@jamericanqueen9237]

Lol so true people keep telling people about water moisturizing hair lol that's not true. After I spray water on my hair it dry as hell I still have to put oil or leave in conditioner in it. Thanks to you for telling the truth.

[@blackblack697]

Used to make my hair dry as hell feeling like a Brillo pad

[@krystingrant6292]

You water is hard Hun you need a filter.

[@xzcmvs]

Cantu changed their product. It used to be good, but now it contains rubbing alcohol.

[@Sunny-tc3ul]

Cantu dried my hair out. My hair felt like one of those sos pads lol. Went back to profectiv products.

[@beautifullymastered1914]

Hershekyss I never liked their products every time I used their products it made my hair flake up and dry up and look like tumble weed because my hair is sandy to boot lol ! It’s a no for me

[@theythinkidontknow1975]

👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀

[@xzcmvs]

Beautifully Mastered I did a comparison and realized the earlier formula was more moisturizing. The Cantu daily moisturizer was good. But now it dries my high-po hair completely out. So now I'm on a new natural kick. I can't add cantu to my locks. So I'm ready to do some more products and come up with a good mix. I'll be trying marshmallow root, flax, rosewater, aloe vera, and some oils. It'll be a gel oil moisturizer that will suck into the hair shaft and keep moisture in my strands. The only thing I keep from Cantu is their empty containers.

[@greggdesigned1209]

I'm gone need you to give us workout videos ASAP

[@rosalinewilliams4408]

What is the cream you are doing the retwist???

[@blingstalker]

I believe the first stylist with a large following that claims to not use conditioner is Yannie The Locologist. She is very earthy or a purist. She doesn’t advocate a lot of product use. However, I now use a oatmeal protein conditioner in my regimen. I also plan to drink more water and add rose water in between washes. My hair is dry and my daughters also have dry hair. I think we don’t drink enough water. Which will change. I hope to get a consultation the next time Damian is in NYC.

[@shontasweetieable]

Thank for speaking on coconut oil... I used to put coconut oil in my hair and then go out in the cold... I could feel that the coconut oil solidified in my hair

[@mazznaturals]

Shonta' Sweetie some people love coconut oil in there hair. I think it’s good if you live in a hot climate. I personally don’t like it for my hair type. But it makes sense that it solidifies in the cold.

[@YummyChoco1]

MAZZ 777 Naturals my hair doesn't care for coconut oil as well.

[@mazznaturals]

[@mazznaturals]

Moonchild7 loool 😀 same here in fact it made my hair dry and dull I only started using it because lots of Locers were raving about it. But it’s got to be cut ✂️✂️✂️✂️ for real. I also use it on my skin it’s brilliant for that but my hair nooooo way! ⛔️🙅🏾😉😊

I found out the hard, hard way about coconut oil. For me personally, it itched the hell out of my scalp. After many trials... Olive oil works for my scalp. The one in a glass bottle that is very difficult to find.

Damian can you please do a video on locking hair that is fine and 'naturally' thin. I saw one that you made, but can you do another on even thinner hair than this lady had. I wear my 4c hair natural and it looks thick this way, but as a test, I braided my nape area...in 1 by 1/2 inch sections (3 rows) and the braids were real skinny and my parts kinda spacey. I want locs but I'm thinking mines might not look good because of the thinness...but am not sure
