Dermatologist's Favorite Hair Products from Olaplex, Kerastase, Oribe, & More! | Dr. Sam Ellis

[@debashish-rocks1]

I read a lot of suggestions in this place and I've been applying littleexttra reactiivate hair growth serum every day and washing it out with cocoonioon shampoo two times each week. Using both of them resulted in new hair growth in just 48 days.

Please consider doing a video that helps us determine whether our hair needs more protein or more moisture.

I used the entire Olaplex system for years with only minimal benefit. Switched to Redken Acidic Bonding system and it totally changed my hair for the better. It is so amazing

[@lexijones8019]

Redken is way better.

[@karenbrandwein8245]

Thank you.. I used redkin for years.. but the products were changed or discontinued . I've been thinking redkin since this Olaplex disaster..

Olaplex made my hair fall out like crazy. I am so disappointed and wished that I never purchased and used it. The conditioner was the one that made it fall out the most. As soon as I stopped using all olaplex products, hair doesn’t fall out anymore. I would never recommend my friends to use it in case the same thing happens to them.

[@ellyrenee]

Yesssss please give us a tutorial on the everyday hair style 😍 with the 2 inch curling iron

[@mnop1774]

Loved this and yes to a tutorial! I've started K18(?) and have seen great results. My hair had been very over bleached and it took several months of Olaplex and K18 but it's looking better. I love my Dyson Airwrap but I'm not great at styling. I'd love to see how you use your hair tools! It always looks beautiful and healthy!

[@pamcanfield255]

So, you recommend the K18? It's very expensive but my hair is getting very dry & Olaplex & other masks/treatments don't seem to help.

[@mnop1774]

@@pamcanfield255 I"ve seen great results from K18 and would definitely recommend. I still love Olaplex and rotate but if I had to choose one, I'd pick K18.

[@halfofmyheart3167]

I love hearing about hair care products, especially from a dermatologist. I also use and love most of the same products as you! I use the whole Olaplex line, K18, many Virtue products, a few select Oribe products, 4 different Kerestase lines, various Kenra hairstyling products, a lot of BondiBoost products, 2 lines from Briogeo, Gisou products, Living Proof, CurlSmith, a few airfare products from Inkey List, select products from Paul Mitchell, Sebastian,etc. I love Aquis hair turbans & towels as well, along with various Wet brushes & their comb. I would definitely love to see more hair care, tutorials, and scalp care videos, as I’m obviously very into hair care & learning more. 💗

[@nancytrobaugh1424]

love Olaplex 3 as well! curious about K18. yes, i'd love to see how you style your hair!

[@snowflake1458]

Thank you❤️ Can you do a video on what combs to use and how to detect scalp problems and the different types

[@kzvegansuperstar]

Dr. Ellis, would you do a video on fragrance free haircare for the extra sensitive among us?

[@cynthiasolomon885]

Thank you. Love living proof dry shampoo. Dry shampoo with aluminum can create problems including bald spots and hair loss and living proof is one of very few aerosol dry shampoos that’s aluminum free.

[@pamcanfield255]

Dr. Sam, after my liver transplant 4 yrs ago I lost alot of my hair about 3 months post. It was scary! My long time friend/stylist recommended I use the Kerastase Extensioniste Serum after shampooing. She told me a healthy scalp was the key to my hair growing back healthy & she was RIGHT! It's similar to fertilizing the soil for planting crops. My hair came back strong & healthy! I still use the Kerastase about once a week to ensure my scalp is "fertile!" Thanks!

[@TracyD2]

I’m so happy for you. Stay blessed and thanks for the tip.

The briogeo hair mask is my HOLY GRAIL ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@oliviad5474]

The briogeo deep condition sucks to me, i tried it and it literally did nothing for me. I had such high hopes for it and when i finally tied it i was beyond disappointed.

[@DrSamEllis]

Aw so frustrating! What works for you?

[@oliviad5474]

@@DrSamEllis Well i’m still looking for a holy grail deep conditioner. To be honest the drug store brand “not you mothers” has really good conditioner, i don’t use alot of silicones and those don’t have them but yet behave and feel just like it. I also like this teal colored l’oréal clay conditioner, also no silicones and feels amazing. Still haven’t found a really good deep conditioner. Anika makes a good deep conditioner that i liked but idk if it’s a holy grail.

[@debramason7237]

One of my favorite tips from my stylist is brushing my hair conditioner through my wet hair in the shower. I have fine hair (the actual hair shaft is thin), but it's very thick (I have lots of it, even at 61 😉). I found that distributes the conditioner throughout, rather than it sitting on top. I use the paddle wet brush, and it only takes a few strokes to go through it. My hair is also sightly curly and almost to my bra strap. My hair is brown with highlights, and my stylist says it's healthy.

Yes I would love to see how you style your hair ! Do you have any suggestions on how to get the scalp to produce less oil ? I am in my 60’s and still have very oily hair, it is hard to skip days at all. I use the Living Proof dry shampoo too, but it only helps for a few hours then I am right back to greasy flat hair. I would love your advice ! Thank you so much !

[@cat_pb]

I would suggest wash it everyday or when you need it, dermatologists always say that oiliness and other issues like that are most likely genetic and not changeable with a routine! She has mentioned this in another video

Your hair bristle is open when it’s wet, which means the moisture are leaking while it’s air drying , you should ‘steal’ your hair asap after shampoo
