Camille Rose reigns supreme in almost every category for me

[@IydaMichael]

Right! I love their natural ingredients as well!

[@autobotdiva9268]

ive been getting use to their products as well, first i was skeptical

[@Leah_Tewari]

Same!

[@demarcusp359]

I want camille rose but its so expensive😭

[@ejarvis9337]

Camielle rose some of her products have protein and are not good for low porosity hair especially if you have protein over load. Rice milk ,algae, etc. Are ingredients to look out for with these natural products. Please read ingredients or you will continue to have breakage. I appreciate lyda for sharing her info will try some of the products she reccomends. Now wet line has sodium hydroxide in it and if I'm not mistaken thats what's in relaxers. Aunt Jackie's has propylene glycol and I get hair fall with this ingredient which most so called natural products have in them. I do like her channel seems honest I will subscribe

[@raysharay573]

Thank you so so much! you're the first person ive seen with the same hair type as mine. I seen your other videos and i was hype! My hair journey starts now.

[@ag5487]

Love how genuine u are I can’t wait to try these products out

Literally most of these products I already use or am looking to try. Great video!

[@Zoe65-]

I just recently found your channel, because of you I’ve learned that I have low porosity hair. For years and years I’ve been using products that were high in protein, that always left my hair dry and brittle. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and products suggestions. New subscriber and can’t wait for more videos!!! Thanks 😊 🤩

[@IydaMichael]

Yayyy! New subbie! I am so happy to hear that!! More videos coming soon and good luck on your hair journey! ❤️

[@bolanlearise8983]

Yeh! I just fond her channel too.but subscribed immediately because I know I have low porosity hair..so I am always interested in knowing what to use for my hair to be thicker ,its healthy though..thanks for sharing😍

[@amnamohamed3431]

My favorite natural hair KZbinr 😍 I have been waiting for this particular video for a while, I trust your reviews and recommendations, tried some of them. Thank you for your efforts and the informative videos. ♥

Because of your videos I am a Giovanni 50/50 fanatic! I think I have at least 20 of them because I literally use it almost every day. 😁

[@DeonnaNichole888]

OMG! I can’t wait to finish and take notes! I have struggled for years to find someone whose hair texture/pattern/porosity match mine and the journey has been damaging more times than it’s been helpful. Getting the right combos down is so important! I honestly appreciate you for being here and sharing your knowledge. This is my 3rd video of yours I’m watching and I can’t wait to learn more and see my hair happy and healthy too! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@DeonnaNichole888]

UPDATE: I tried a combo of Aztec Clay hair mask using water to mix and acv to rinse, followed by The Mane Choice The Alpha Shampoo, and the Giovanni 50\50 rinse out Conditioner, and I couldn't wait for Curl Junkie Smoothing Lotion to ship cause I'm going out of town, so I did the TGIN Green Tea Leave-In (since my hair is in serious damage recovery from mold toxicity, over co-washing and protein damage it was a good choice anyway) I rubbed a little of a twist butter I had on my ends and spritzed with an aloe floral water from Ava Estell for a gentle seal. HOLY CRAP it's a complete texture transformation. It's been years since I could feel my hairs usual softness, but the hydration is just right, not weighed down or greasy and I'm insanely grateful for you. Can't wait to try some of your other recommendations!

[@IydaMichael]

Hey guys! I finally have my favourites video for 2020 up! The majority of these hair products are protein free and silicone free! :) Full Product List is in the description box 😃 Let me know in the comments below what hair products I should try for 2021! :) Have a blessed day everyone! ❤️

[@psr076]

You should try products from upnorth natural. I’ve used a lot of their products. I used to use Giovanni shampoo and conditioner but in my province it’s seems they don’t sell them anymore

[@IydaMichael]

@@psr076 I think the upnorth natural line is a Canadian company right? I think I have heard of them a while ago but haven't had a chance to try them out yet! What province are you in? Also, Giovanni and Amazon sell Giovanni online and a lot of Winners locations as well! Thanks so much for sharing :)

[@psr076]

@@IydaMichael Yes upnorth is from 🇨🇦. I’m in Montreal Quebec. I used to find the Giovanni products in health foods stores and Winners. Now I rarely find them.

[@ramezahmed-]

I wondering why mongongo oil protein-free hydrating conditioner is not in this video?

[@simplymia3153]

I’d like to hear your thoughts on Mielle Organics, specifically on the products they’ve marketed as suitable for type 4 hair

[@ggqnice]

I'm very low porosity, and my favorite masque is the Shea Moisture Intensive Hydration hair masque. I also recently purchased their Purple Rice Water masque, which has protein; it instantly made my hair look and feel thicker, yet very smooth and soft. You've gotta try that one if you haven't already. I also really like the Mielle Rosemary Mint masque. I've been applying masques topped with creamy shea butter and coconut oil to moisturize my hair whenever it feels dry. I have a satin pillowcase but haven't worn a bonnet in forever, and my hair stays moisturized, even after I fall asleep on my couch with my head resting on cotton/poly quilt. I am so happy that I've found the cure for my dry brittle hair. As for the products you mentioned in this video, the Curl Junkie Smoothing Lotion was probably the very first leave in conditioner I purchased after my big chop; I didn't like it on my hair, so I gave it to my sister, and she loved it. I have yet to try a shampoo that I absolutely love for my lo-po hair, but I do like the Intensive Hydration one by Shea Moisture and the Mo Know's Hair Hydration Shampoo. I'll have to try your favorite from the Mane Choice, because I love the 3 in 1 Conditioner from the same line.

[@raishroomer]

i love you for this video. i did a big chop and my hair porosity changed to low so i had no idea what products to use. it’s like nothing really works. i’m definitely going to try these products

[@abbyb1481]

I am a new subscriber. It was through your videos that I was able to confirm I am lo po and have been searching for products that will work for my hair. Will look into these. Thank you!

[@sherylpetite402]

Thanks, this was great info to get! I have been struggling for years with my dry low porosity hair.

[@OkIamReadyNow]

Thanks Iyda!! I love your recommendations!! Some I've never heard of and I'll need to give them a try. Tfs🙂🧡

[@destinystarr3837]

This was so helpful! I'm currently adding a lot of these products to my cart lol thank you!😁💕

[@Sidra_193]

I also live in Canada and you're right the prices are ridiculous for some of these products. I buy products from Amazon US and pay for shipping and import fees and it's STILL cheaper than Amazon Canada! I wish natural hair products were more available. For my protein sensitive low porosity hair, I use rice water once a month. Lightly spray on my scalp and leave it for 20 min maximum. I follow up with a moisturizing deep conditioner. I've definitely noticed less shedding and my hair feels stronger.

[@leeah2211]

Love the As I Am leave in it mixes well with other product lines.

[@IydaMichael]

It really does! That one will always be a favourite of mine ♥️

[@jprichardson9630]

It's the best!! ❤️

[@renig6694]

Lyda thank you for this video! Your hair is soo similar to mine lol When Shea Moisture discontinued their Low Porosity line, I couldn't find ANY product combos that worked for my low porosity hair. One tip for low porosity folks is to use a clarifying or chelating shampoo often to get your hair completely clean before styling. I recently moved and the water was KILLING my hair. I use the ION hardwater Shampoo and it is a godsend!

[@SAnn1747]

Yea it took me 35 yrs to figure out that I need to clarify my hair before adding other products.

[@carolehatfield1255]

How often do you clarify? I'm wondering if I don't use my chelating shampoo enough. I was afraid it would dry my hair out!

[@danielleabdullah2520]

Hey Iyda! I love your tips, they’re really helping me understand my hair! I have a question and a product recommendation. - For the xtreme wetline gel, I absolutely LOVE it. It really worked so well on my very thick, type 4, low porosity and protein sensitive hair. But my friend pointed out to me that the 3rd ingredient is sodium hydroxide or lye, which is also in relaxers. I got nervous about that and stopped using it. Is this something that’s concerning or is it a typical thing for gels? -I recently was introduced to Balance shampoo by AG and the Oatmeal and Honey hair deep conditioning mask by Catwalk. It sounds like we have a similar hair type and I think you will LOVE these...they are incredibly hydrating products. Thank you so much! Please keep those amazing recommendations coming!

Hey Iyda, I was sitting here thinking of relaxed short styles to try for the summer. I have 4c low porosity hair, and I'm still trying to find the promised land of this natural hair journey. The hardest part being moisture retention, and detangling. Something told me to Google hairstyles for 4c low porosity hair and your video was the first to pop up, and from there I navigated to this one. I will probably watch them all lol, and follow your channel forever!! I truly appreciate you for creating this wonderful content. I can't wait to fall in love with my natural hair as much as I was when it was relaxed. Thank you!!! 💜 #Team4CLowP

Iyda I love your channel, I can only try what you recommend ! Picked up the Ouidad from Ulta and saw your picture with the Haitian castor oil! The Ouidad was magical, I’ve never experienced cleansing and conditioning at the same time. Thank you so much! I wonder if I should have gotten the low-lather instead of the no-lather (too thick?) but I’ll eventually try both

[@healingwithgolden]

Happy holidays!! I love kriya botanicals low porosity line, Alikay Naturals lemongrass leave in, black soap shampoo.

[@dianecasto3900]

I'm so glad you made a new video because I have 2c coarse texture medium density low porosity hair. My hair also hates anything coconut and no proteins or glycerin either. I'm having trouble finding alot of these in the actual store and hate to order online and have to wait for it...lol, alot of store products have coconut in them and I get very frustrated with that.

[@IydaMichael]

Wow we have almost the same hair but your curls are looser! My hair actually loves glycerin! Yes me too, I noticed all the products that my hair loves are hard to find in stores sometimes, but now that we have been in quarantine I'm used to shopping online for everything now! lol And for the coconut oil, don't get discouraged when you see it on the ingredient list, my hair doesn't mind it if its a small amount mixed in with other ingredients! I just can't use it alone!

[@miaalexander1703]

Well jayda that JBCO line in high in protein especially Keratin proteins which is good if you need protein but for frequent weekly to biweekly use the Manuka honey line in the brown jars is very hydrating and more moisturizing! I definitely recommend the shampoo/ condish set, mask, and milk is great! You can finger detangle in the shower with this shampoo too! Thanks honey 🍯!😘😘😘

I have coarse, wiry, low porosity type 4 hair AND a dry sensitive scalp so its hard to find stuff that won't easily cause build up otherwise after a few days scalp would start to itch like mad but after using my diy lightweight oils, TGIN super moist leave in. My hair is soft easy to detangle and I dont really get as much product build up as I used to. I think I'm on quite the low side of low porosity so I need to clarify my hair more than usual. I use the giovanni hydrating-clarifying shampoo and it leaves my hair squeaky clean plus its ph balanced as I live in a hard water area I also use soultanicals hibiscus hair healer and omg this has so much slip and it makes my hair so soft immediately and it absorbs into my hair well. Any sulphate free shampoo that has Cocamidopropyl Betaine in its first 5 ingredients my hair does not like, it makes my hair soooo dry. If its verrry low on the list of a shampoo its fine tho lol I live in the UK so sadly even online i can't get some of these products 😭

I love the Giovanni 50/50 as my moisturizing shampoo. My scalp feels clean but my hair isn’t completely stripped. I would recommend the Mielle Organics Babassu Oil & Mint Deep Conditioner as a mild protein treatment. My hair feels very strong after use but also supple, not hard. And the mint smell is simply intoxicating. I don’t use a rinse out conditioner either. I’ve always found them to be pointless for my low po hair. I’ve recently been loving the Shea Moisturize Manuka Honey & Yogurt Hydrate + Repair Conditioner with Mafura & Baobab Oils. I use it as a deep conditioner and also a leave-in conditioner during the winter months. I specifically use this one because it’s coconut oil free.

[@IydaMichael]

I really need to try the Giovanni moisturizing shampoo next, you are the second person to recommend it! Thanks lovely ❤️ I tried the Mielle Organics Babassu Oil & Mint Deep Conditioner and it was too mild for me, I didn't feel that much of a difference in my hair :( I haven't tried Shea Moisture products in so long!

The as I am contains coconut oil, how are you still able to use it?

[@lisadunn3313]

What do you use for edge control?

[@shaniquapittman7287]

Have you ever tried Love Beauty & Planet argan oil & lavender sulfate free shampoo and conditoner?

[@IydaMichael]

No I haven't tried it or even heard of it! Is it good?

[@lou7664]

What would you recommend for someone with low porosity protein sensitive fine 2b hair? I don’t know how significant the difference between course and fine hair when it comes to what products work best. I have so much trouble finding anything that works and my hair will not detangle no matter what I do

[@joshiyonnahayes6016]

Texture ID also have a line catered to type 2 hair !! I say try them they are really good honestly. That Camille rose, Shea moisture, aunt Jackie’s, and miss Jessie’s pillow soft curls ! Also I do you detangle your hair ? :)

Hi Lm. Thank you so much for the video because all the females in my family have low porosity hair. But can i mix apple cider vinegar to my clay hair mask to open up my hair cuticles? and which works more effectively at this, the water or ACV?

[@IydaMichael]

Hello! The apple cider vinegar is acidic so it will lower the pH level of the clay mask and will not open your hair cuticles as much as mixing it with water. It will be less moisturizing with just water but the pH level will be higher and as a result it will raise your cuticles more. Just make sure to follow up with a moisturizing deep conditioner after you rinse out the clay mask ❤️

Thank you for the recommendations, my hair journey has been a roller coaster and I haven’t figured out my hair until recently. My hair is low porosity, medium-fine, type 4 hair. It’s much thinner in the front. My hair also hates coconut oil and makes it shed a lot. And eco styler gel tore out my edges, so I can’t use that either. I’ve been watching selina zinchuk’s on natural hair treatments and really love her channel. I would check it out. I learned how to make shampoo from her. But will definitely check the products your mentioned especially with styling. Maybe the hair gel you mentioned will work better on my hair. 😊

[@carolharper4401]

My hair is similar to yours. My hair doesn't like coconut as well. I sought out a dermatologist for mine. My intuition told me to see one. And I am glad that I did. You should check out Curly Chemistry. She is a chemist. She has a video out not about products for low porosity hair. And her videos are awesome. She tells you specifically which products are good for low porosity hair. That's who I look at.

[@Catgirl2021]

@@carolharper4401 Thank you for the recommendation, I’ll check her out. I’m also dealing with Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia (CCCA) which is due to inflammation in my scalp. It’s mild but I do notice my hair isn’t as voluminous like it was before and certain products really irritates my scalp and hair where it causes more shedding. (Most can’t tell because I still have a head full of hair) So any suggestions to save the hair I did have would help.

[@ruthwillrich266]

Thank you!!

[@farzeenab7490]

Is Cantu Shea butter for natural hair good for low porosity protein sensitive hair..if no then why?

[@ramezahmed-]

I wondering why mongongo oil protein-free hydrating conditioner is not in this video?

[@johnson2837]

How do you feel about shea moisture black Jamaican castor oil deep conditioner for low porosity hair?

[@reene4680]

I'm really struggling to find a leave in. My hair is low porosity and absolutely hates Coconut , Cetearyl Alcohol and Aloe Vera. there in every product, is there anything you can recommend? I'm so desperate 🥺

[@foryou6yn]

Ur very informing

[@jasminespice3326]

Does this mean you don’t like the apogee curlific protein treatment? I’m trying to decide between aphogee curlific and fenugreek for a protein treatment?

[@IydaMichael]

I like it but I don't love it because the ingredients list has too much fragrance and silicones in it.I used it back then because there wasn't that many other options :( I would rather use the Aphogee 2 min Reconstructor but lately I feel like it is too light for my hair. Right now, I am adding in the fenugreek paste to my deep conditioners (2-3 tablespoons) and using it as a protein treatment until I find some really good alternatives!

[@PrometheanFlame]

Have you tried Chocolate Kinks and Curls? I would also suggest Curls and Potions (and forgive me if you have tried them already) and one or more of the sister brands like SheScentIt and Curl Origin. Let me know if you want product recommendations. I am trying the first two myself, but I have more experience with the latter two brands.

[@IydaMichael]

I haven't tried or even heard of any of those products you mentioned but I will definitely take a look into them! Thank you so much for sharing and have an awesome day/evening! 😃

[@PrometheanFlame]

@@IydaMichael No problem. I hope your holiday season is going well. I am always interested in seeing people try less common brands. I have been able to find Curls and Potions in a physical store, but my understanding is that outside of the New York area it is harder to find stuff from SheScentIt, Curl Origin and so on.

[@samuelchidera1553]

Is a protein deep conditioner good?

[@betmccullo]

Hello, I remember you use to use Mielle Babassu & Mint Deep Conditioner, why did you stop using it?

[@IydaMichael]

Hello! I still love it but it is not my favourite! And from what I remember the consistency was too thin and the jar didn't last long. I just wanted to include my top favourites for this video but I included it in my previous favourites and they are listed in the description box :)

[@michellewhite6938]

I also like Mielle!

[@TaKyraDivine]

Personally I used this product and it’s the reason I’m here 😭 it gave me protein overload that I’m trying to fix now.

[@gata0190]

C2 dry and damages hair low porosity Spanish hair what should I do no matter what I put it's always dry brittle I'm just now trying to understand the hole hair and product combo

[@mrsaye499]

Have you tried the Aunt Jackie's Curl la la? It's very detangling. My hair is lo-po and extremely coily like yours. Tfs

[@IydaMichael]

I have and I thought it was ok but not my favourite! :)

[@thecure3982]

I am sorry the gel is costing you to ship. I have heard somebody say that innersense I create hold is similar. maybe protein with larger proteins instead of the smaller ones. smaller proteins like mielle's deep conditioner, larger some people like trepadora's quinoa or maybe the quinoia from honey's handmade line.

[@elisarolle4222]

Have you tried soultanicals ?
