2nd like. Hope you're enjoying your weekend as well as your 2019 so far.

[@brandoncooney9047]

That aloe froth or "snot" looks like it's still good to put in your hair. I would put that in my hair.

[@OnyxGoddess]

You can. The froth though has aloe bits that would get stuck in your hair

[@brandoncooney9047]

@@OnyxGoddess just pluck out the green bits with tweezers. & you should be fine.

[@kristynj9287]

the froth can cause build up in your locs

[@jackieo8907]

Great video! So you broke down the aloe vera. Blended it with water. Strained it then put it in a spray bottle. And that’s your daily moisturizing routine? Also, you can spray it on your body?

[@OnyxGoddess]

Hi, thank you. You can spray it on your body if you'd like. You can also follow it with an oil of choice (for both hair and body).

[@AroundTheWayGirl88]

1. Thank you for this vid and taking the time to respond to the comments. 2. 500 ml of water (more/less given my preference), correct? Which essential oils would you recommend adding and how much of each? Thank you again.

[@OnyxGoddess]

1. 🙂 2. Correct 3. Up to you: jojoba & tea tree are good for me though.

[@AroundTheWayGirl88]

@@OnyxGoddess Thank You again.

[@kingjojo142]

Do u put the aloe Vera after a regular wash or jus whenever ? Or should I jus wash my hair clean and then do aloe Vera wash

[@OnyxGoddess]

Both

[@OnyxGoddess]

It's better on clean hair though

[@itsyagirlindica3505]

Thx for the video. 💖

[@donnieripple9047]

Was there already water in the bowel before u added the aloe vera chunks?

[@Jazzidakid]

Did you wash it out at all?

[@OnyxGoddess]

No, you can leave it in. I used it before applying oils to my locs

[@Jazzidakid]

Onyx Goddess thank you so much ❤️ I’m planning to my wash mine and then put the aloe Vera and then oils 👍🏽 hopefully it works!

[@biancabrown5273]

how long does this last , does it expire fairly quickly?

[@OnyxGoddess]

I kept mine for a few weeks on the fridge. 2-3 months max I would say... you'll most likely use it up before it expires anyway

[@JahleeyahKalonji]

@@OnyxGoddess I freeze it, I even cut up the aloe and freeze that

[@tangitv6758]

Very informative ! Thanks

[@OnyxGoddess]

Glad it was helpful!

How much water should I use ? Or it doesn’t matter

Doesn't really matter. More for consistency preference.

[@Wildflower-h8d]

Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾How long is the shelf life for this mixture please & do you store the mixture in the fridge?

[@unconditionalbrother1328]

How long does the water last ? Needs refrigeration?

[@OnyxGoddess]

yes, refrigerate after making it. approximately a week or two. Not 100% sure, so make it in small batches.

[@treetheseminole6980]

Cool

[@newjersey-thesupertrucker]

Question: first i think my locs are going to wind up looking like yours because they lookabout the same thickness and texture now , im 7 months in the game and i wanted to stop retwisting every month and start using aloe & water. Should i spray it every day?

[@OnyxGoddess]

I spray mainly use aloe when I wash my hair. BUT I occasionally use it between washes. At least once a week is good. You can increase frequency as needed (when your locs get dry) on lazy days I spritz with water and follow up with oil.

[@newjersey-thesupertrucker]

Thank you! i used to use it like twice a week when i was growing my hair out and my hair seemed to really like it, i used it as a moisturizer along with 100% organic jamaican black castor oil. i stopped using the aloe once i got it twisted and only used to oil maybe once sometimes twice a week for the last 7 months. i used the aloe a few days ago and the very next day i noticed an extreme difference in the texture of my locks.i plan on going two to three months between retwist because i want my locks a little thicker and also i want my roots to remain strong so i have that Lion's mane appearance and still be able to get them braided down if i want.

[@Cold_Zero_The_Wise]

New Jersey don't re-twist every month it should 2 or more as I have seen once a month every month for years like 10 years leads to bald spots but don't take my word for it research for yourself

[@newjersey-thesupertrucker]

@@Cold_Zero_The_Wise NA ,I AM LETTING GO.. MY HAIR IS LOOKING DOPE AS IT IS, IM SO IMPRESSED! I WISH I COULD SHOW YOU PICS. I WILL GO TO MY GRAVE WITH MY LOXS

[@Cold_Zero_The_Wise]

New Jersey lol ok

[@rakeec84]

I have so many questions lol...Do you leave it in your head over night? , do you do This daily? And when it’s time to get your hair re-twisted do you do this process as well? (I’m asking because you gave me the idea to do that and I want to know if you do that as well) lmao

[@OnyxGoddess]

So many answers Lol 1. I leave it in as a part of daily (weekly) moisturization. (Aloe water, then oil) 2. you can use it for retwisting also

[@rakeec84]

Onyx Goddess great THANKS!

Can you leave the aloe in or on your scalp

Yes you can. This was created as a leave in

What happens if u don't add water

[@OnyxGoddess]

You won't be able to apply it with a spray bottle, you'll have to use your hands.

[@nocapnolie2904]

I hate the smell of aloe Vera but I want it In my hair lol I’m afraid my hair would smell like aloe vera. If I do this routine everyday will it make my hair smell like aloe vera?

[@OnyxGoddess]

Perhaps a bit. But you can always add essential oils to cover the smell.

[@sonjasmith2280]

Does it matter what water temperature to use when making this?

[@OnyxGoddess]

Not really... but i wouldn't use hot water. It would lower the nutrient value of the aloe

[@cheyannemariah.8578]

Does it matter if I don’t have a tea bag?

[@OnyxGoddess]

No. You just use another method to strain...

[@vivianembery4588]

Can i buy aloe gel?nice video ty🖤

I'm sure some grocers will sell it... I mostly see them sell aloe water though.

Can I use aloe vera gel instead?

[@OnyxGoddess]

I have not used store bought aloe Vera gel for more than a quick retwist, so I'm not sure how that would work out. I don't suggest it... but natural aloe vera gel, yes. I have a video about that too: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6HUfXaCYt5kl8U
