BUTTERS AND OILS ARE BAD FOR YOUR NATURAL HAIR!!? | MY EXPERIENCE! MY OPINION! | Obaa Yaa Jones

[@tiliciafraser5014]

My hair loves oils , butters and grease . My hair stretches down to the dimples on my lower back . I just stick to what my hair likes and avoid what it doesn't , for example, co-washing . My hair loves to be shampoo.

[@RebelforaSpell]

My too. 4c hair need all the help and gentle loving. Good luck to you

[@arewahaircaretv8718]

It will make sense if you don't use a clarifying shampoo eventually product build up and cause problems. Their obsession with sulphate free shampoo is what is causing repercussions. That being said i love your videos 😍❤💯

Very true sis, l don’t why people turn to these trends when our natural hair needs the oils and butters, l personally did The no oil no butter for 2 weeks unintentionally , and my hair was breaking off and it was completely dry like a dry leaf 🍂. Great content darling

[@ObaaYaaJones]

I know that dry leaf feeling 😅 Glad you liked the video 🤎

[@fuyukazemi]

Okay this. I got attacked by the cult for saying it didn't work on my hair. Tried it 3 separate times and each and every time, my hair got so dry, tangled, dry, broke off, dry, got sparse at the ends, dry, refused to retain water, weak, did I mention dry? If you're hunting for that insane individual curl definition, then go ahead, do that and do wng's. That method is _heavy_ on the manipulation and that can be excessive for some people (me). I'm going to do what has worked beautifully for me: hot oil, shampoo, dc, herbal treatments, and oils n grease, with low manipulation and mid term to long term p.s. aka start with 2 months and work upto 5-6 months.

[@justbeuneik]

People are always going to create a new trend. It doesn't mean it's going to work for everyone. After watching a few videos on this new trend, you're limited to only wash n go's. Having APL/BSL hair that's a NO for me. I haven't done a wash n go for about 2 years now. I'm sticking to what I know best. And yes it's when you're not clarifying properly that's when the build up starts happening. But people what to create these new trends in order to get our money. I'm going to continue to put money into butters, oils, and other staple products that have continued to help my hair to thrive.

[@ObaaYaaJones]

Exactly how I feel.

[@nadinepugh9899]

You can also do other styles with it. You just don’t use gel. You’re suppose to use a foam for twists etc

I literally got blocked on tiktok when I replied to video of someone praising the no oils and no butters trend. Someone commented that their hair was breaking off because of this and I replied and told them to keep doing what they were doing with their hair and stop this crazy trend. The person who made the tiktok told her " oh that's just your hair detoxing itself" and I was like wtf? This lady is giving out trash advice and the fact that people are believing her are insane. She ended up blocking me when I called her insane and I would say it again if I could.

[@riasmith7249]

That's why I do what works for me and stop taking everyone else advice.

My dear I think you are right. I was trying this no oils butters thing and my hair was down to my tailbone. Recently I looked at my ends and it didn't look right and I end up trimming almost 4 inches off my hair. Smh. We need to focus on what works for each person.

[@rrrrrrrrrrrrrrr631]

from the videos I've watched on this, I've come to the conclusion that oils/butters aren't inherently bad for your hair but it does inhibit curl definition by stopping your hair from clumping. So if you'd like curl definition, limit your oils/butters. If you don't really care about curl definition but like your hair with oils/butters, continue to use them and just make sure you're washing your hair often and clarifying your hair on a regular basis as well.

[@ObaaYaaJones]

Exactly!

[@KnL9713]

The key of curl definition is technique and manipulation. I don't use haircare products and I get definition with a melt of butter, oils and glycerine.

[@gloriaaguh5885]

[@rhodealexandre6583]

I agree totally. In my opinion, butters should be applied on freshly washed hair to seal in products. They are not meant to be used every day as they will probably caused build up. My hair specially my ends, loves Shea, olive oil, honey, Aloe Vera but does not like coconut oil at all.

[@HereDiianas]

To be honnest all people I know and use butter including me use it that way. How to create a trend by creating a false statement to begin with...

[@beautylatebea5282]

Hmmmmm I am really surprised to hear this!!!! To be frank with you my dear Obaa Yaa, my hair can not be without OILS AND BUTTERS. Yes! Shea butter and Olive Oil has been a great help to my Natural Hair and I will never stop using it . Anyway that's my own point of view my dear. Thanks for sharing this great video 💯👍👌❤

[@ObaaYaaJones]

Glad you found what works for you and stuck to it.

[@joydavey6971]

It's all about moderation they say but it also depends on the environment whether dry or humid environment. I grew up with coconut oil application on my hair for every washing. No shampoo, just fresh coconut milk or oil. Because of that I have very thick and strong hair.

[@RebelforaSpell]

Always beautiful and informative. I decided to LOC my hair. THis is my 3rd day. Sending much love to all - esp the THIN natural hair ladies.

[@hopefuls3976]

Same here, I learned my hair doesn't like Coconut Oil, Olive Oil and Aloe Vera. So I use other alternatives. Thanks for Sharing,

[@gabbygabby386]

Amen Sister! You always make sense. Stick to what works for you!

[@ObaaYaaJones]

Exactly! Glad it made sense to you 😊🤎

[@MakeHerProud]

First of all, you are stunning! 🤩 Next, your hair absolutely gorgeous, healthy, and full! Lastly, I’m glad that you spoke up on this. I’ve been growing hair out for the past 17 months and oils and grease are two of my staple products and I have seen continuous growth because of them! I think some folks just want to trend honestly; because our hair tends to flourish with oils and butters💯 Great video beautiful 😍

Girl, your hair is gorgeous. I am with you all the way. I am not changing my routine for anyone because my hair is almost to my waist. As long as I am washing my hair with shampoo, I'm good to go.

[@earthgirl7874]

What's your routine One Flower , may I ask?

[@oneflowerlover]

@@earthgirl7874 I wash with shampoo once every three weeks, deep condition every wash, add product and place my hair in box braids, no extensions. The week after washing, I spray my scalp with distilled water, add oil then massage. I also spray my braids. I repeat this step weekly until it's time to rewash. I used to wash weekly but discovered less is best for my hair.

[@nanakwan8385]

My problem is with remoisturising. The oil from the previous days will prevent your moisturizer from penetrating. So what is the point?
