How To & Best Protein Treatment for Natural Hair! + Transformation Pics | ApHogee

[@TanaeBriana]

you have like the healthiest hair I've seen on youtube, as far as tightly coiled hair.

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Tanaé Briana awww thank you so much! We've come so far *victory cry* lmbo

[@missywangui2077]

Tanaé Briana you look so pretty on your DP

[@VictasiaParker]

You couldn't have posted this at a better time! I've been really debating if aphogee was worth a shot

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Rose Gold 🙌🏾🙌🏾 don't forget to test patch ladies! And thanks for watching. I forgot to mention that the keratin reconstructor comes in like $2-3 packets for sample!

[@Shea354]

I definitely agree that it takes time to know what to do with your hair. It took me forever to realize that my hair HATES manipulation. As soon as I stopped messing with it so much, it started growing a lot more. My hair is longer than ever, now

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Shea354 🙌🏾🙌🏾 yas growth! Thank you for watching!

[@tieashasamuels2627]

You gave me much hope! I'm almost 7 years in & this last year has been a challenging one for me & my hair. Most days I don't recognize it! A lot of changes...none good. Beautiful results 😍

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Tieasha S. keep trying new things and track what does and doesn't work for you! You'll figure it out... thank you!

[@darkmoonskygoddess3212]

Tieasha S. I experienced this too . Have you tried a clarifying shampoo once a month BEFORE deep conditioning ?

[@kinkycurlychic8903]

how did you do that bobby pin style.... and how did long did your wash and go took to dry because i have 4c hair and my shingle method always fail

[@CorneliaS0308]

I really enjoyed your video. I've been natural for 5 years and I honestly haven't done a protein treatment since transitioning. your video made me think I need to. I'm still learning my hair.

[@najah7791]

I definitely want to try this. the front half of my hair is super kinky and the back half is looser . It's not from heat damage because I cut my hair off a few years ago and started over . I would like to see if this works though

[@DayeLaSoul]

+najah7791 mine was the opposite lol! Both are tighter now but the front is still looser than the back, except right across from ear to ear, it's loosest there!

[@DayeLaSoul]

+najah7791 hope it works for you!

[@chalseywilder937]

najah7791 if it grew out that way, it won't change the texture

[@TheMsNikkiE]

Thank you so much for this video. I thought I was the only person who was so far along in my natural hair journey and still learning my hair. The progression pictures were great!

[@DayeLaSoul]

+TheMsNikkiE thanks! 💜

[@MCJCsmathmom]

Thank you so much for including pics. This helped me determine that I had the same issues, and my hair needed protein. Apparently, I have moisture overload. Your video helped me understand how to fix it!

[@MargaretAnei85]

Your hair is ALWAYS beautiful! I've been following your hair journey since last Summer on IG & I love how informative you are in your videos, & how honest your responses are (there's a video on my KZbin for the repetitive questions) lol. I still have a long way to go with my transitioning process but I still take notes from your videos & put those to use. Thanks for these great tips Daye!

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Margaret Thompson lmbo 😭🙌🏾.. i can't be any other way! Thank you for your support boo and good luck on your journey. You got this!

[@carlosurbina8252]

You betta slaaaaaaaay with this cosmetology 101 gurl you takin me back

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Carlos Urbina ayyy thank you!

[@warriorprincess8741]

And really glad to have discovered an Aphogee store here in Nairobi.

[@terinlynn7259]

So glad I came across this video!!! I've been STRUGGLING with my hair for almost 6 years... with many cuts in between, I could never find a routine that worked for me and I'm excited to try this protein treatments!!

[@DayeLaSoul]

Terin Lynn hope it helps!

[@SimplyLexsi]

So true bout the diy protein treatments! I almost had to learn the hard way but for the last year (after doing research) i went back to solan treatments and noticed a MAJOR difference! Awesome video!

[@DayeLaSoul]

Alexis K. 🙌🏾🙌🏾.. thanks for watching!

[@yvettejames4531]

thank you so much for the information, was ready to give-up on my natural hair journey. I wasn't achieving the look I wanted, hair always too dry by midday. knowledge is power, thank you again.

[@iamsunflower2011]

Yes ma'am Aphoghee 2 step protein treatment stays in my life

[@JazinessCurls]

I love how informative this video is and I loved the fact you added pictures to document your journey. Great video 😘❤

[@DayeLaSoul]

+JazinessCurls thanks girls!

[@lorettalynndavis9695]

Wow, that was awesome. Short, sweet, to the point informative and instructional. Perfect!

[@PraiseDiva3]

Thank you for being so thorough! I'm binge watching now lol. Love the charts, they're so helpful!

[@emeraldkaysgarden]

you are inspiring me....I have b.c so many times because I have high porous fine density hair and although I like the way I look with short hair....I desire to grow my hair without constantly getting split ends. I currently wear extension braids just to not deal with the work of touching or further damaging my hair. I will implement the protein treatment and hopefully it will help me achieve my goal of healthy hair in length and strength. thanks for your tutorial.👍

[@DayeLaSoul]

Woot woot! Glad I could inspire you! Hope this helps, thanks for watching!

[@X.jgray444]

I'm so happy I came across your channel. I should be sleeping cause I have church in the morning but, knowledge is power lol

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Jay Gray lmbo 🙌🏾🙌🏾 amen! Thankful for watching!

[@chynadoll6682]

How often should you do a protein treatment on damaged hair during the month? Do u have a updated protein treatment video?

[@coilygurl]

I love the shape of your hair! I have color treated natural hair and I am in need of some serious protein. Going to give Aphogee a try. It worked great for me back in the day.

[@erickalovepearson6491]

I love your videos not a whole lot of rambling and a lot of good information. thank you for taking the time to share.

[@DayeLaSoul]

+erickalove pearson aww thank you! I try to keep short and sweet

[@caseyhankins1593]

I've been using apogee for years!!! Love that stuff, but I've never used the 2min reconstructor. Will be purchasing. It also took me 4 years to figure out what works, still learning, lol. Your hair is beautiful!!

[@caseyhankins1593]

Aphogee**

[@DayeLaSoul]

Thank you! Enjoy!

[@felichaloman569]

I love your hair watching how your hair has grown me and my 4 girls are natural now love ya

[@deionnejackson1692]

Currently transitioning so I have no idea what I am doing, but I'm excited that I found your channel!

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Deionne Jackson 🙌🏾🙌🏾 hope this helps! I have a playlist on my channel for hair care tips, make sure you check it out!

[@laurensollison]

I do protein treatments as well using the same brand featured but I had no idea that had products geared towards curling hair. Thank you for this! I love you snap, IG and your KZbin.

[@xxcarlitaraexx]

i love love love how informative this video is! i can't wait to try your routine and see if i can get this hair back healthy 😩

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Carlita Rae thank you! Dont forget to refer to the product grid and test patch to see what works for your hair!

[@NeoDarkling]

I will absolutely try the Two Minute Reconstructer. After a scary experience with the Two Step Treatment from Aphogee several years ago I've only done dedicated protein treatments once in a blue moon. Thanks for giving my chicken butt the courage to try Aphogee one more time! 😅

[@DayeLaSoul]

+NeoDarkling Goth 🙌🏾 make sure you test patch to avoid another scare!

[@OnlyOneJess]

youre so beautiful even without makeup!!!

[@DayeLaSoul]

+OnlyOneJess thank you baby!

[@OnlyOneJess]

youre welcome

[@JuicyTheBody]

Both of yall are you are to jess 💖❤️‍🔥

[@dressedinpink718]

Happy new year! I've been following you on IG and snap for a while. Why am I just now subscribing to your youtube?! Anyway, your videos are very informative. I've never considered a protein treatment but I think this is what my hair may be asking for. I think I'll try the Curlific Texture Treatment first. Can't wait to see the results!

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Nakia W yas! Don't forget to test patch first since you haven't done one. Let me know how you like it and thanks for subscribing!

[@doubleg3973]

How often do you do you protein treatments? If you mentioned it in the video i didn't catch it

[@faysam60]

Thank you for posting this...it was needed! If I may take the liberty to add that many beauty supply shops sell sachets of these products that you can use for testing on small portions of hair. That saves you buying larges bottles and the wasting them because the product doesn't work for you. Blessings for the New Year x

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Fay “Avi'dfan60” Samuel thanks for watching!

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Fay “Avi'dfan60” Samuel and happy new year!

[@passion44chi]

[@butterscotchy9615]

The curlific is bomb! I keep back ups

[@DayeLaSoul]

+ButterScotchy I was definitely sleeping on it when I'd see it in the store lol! I'll be alternating between the two now!

[@sweetliann20051]

Love your Videos, you are a great help to me... you give a lot of info... and you always demonstrate what your talking about... Great job... Love your hair...

Super helpful video! I just picked up the ApHogee 2 minute reconstructor on clearance at Target 😆😆 I cant wait to wash my hair!

[@DayeLaSoul]

+kramjb87 oooo clearance?! Nice! Make sure you test it out first and follow the directions! Hope it helps and thanks for watching!

[@innatelydramatic6055]

I have those Aphoghee products but I'm only consistently using the leave-in by diluting it with my water 💦 spray bottle and put in my hair daily. But other than that I've never done a protein treatment.

[@darkmoonskygoddess3212]

I mix my store baught conditioner with mayonaise and leave in for two hours then wash and use a light conditioner or leave In and it is awesome ! I enjoyed your video 😸 thanks for helping us all out !

[@ameerahpowell374]

You have such nice hair and thanks so much for all your pointers 🤗

[@DayeLaSoul]

Ameerah Powell thanks for watching!

[@allanam56]

Hey Daye! I loved this video it was very educational and informative! I have a few questions. 1. How do you know you need a protein treatment? 2. How often do you protein treatments? 3. Do you have suggestions in how to incorporate or start protein treatments in a hair routine? Thanks again for the video it was great and very informative! You're the best.

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Allana McGhee thank you for watching! I listed the benefits, if you think you need improvements in those areas, then it you might need it. And I answered your other two questions right before I started applying.

[@katayaparson]

😍😍😍Love this look! I might have to try a protein treatment!

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Kataya Parson thank you! Let me know how you like! And don't forget to test patch first if you've never done one!

[@katayaparson]

Beautiful hair! I haven't used Apohgee since starting the curly girl method, but I'm going to do a 2 step treatment next wash.

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Iris Cole Curly thanks!

[@ThrivewithJesus]

Ohhhh thank you! Thank you ! After going thru ur vids , realize we have same hair type. So I went and did the proteins! Wow what a deference.Aphogee 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Marcelline Zacca 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@Mz.M.2757]

I am subscribed to ALOT of KZbin naturalistas and you are one of my FAVS.. You may mentioned in a previous video but do you recommend clarifying your hair and if so how often? I have low po...dense but fine 4a/4b hair textures. Rather new to dealing with my natural hair....

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Malerie Wilson aw thank you! I don't really clarify any more because it could strip out my color. When I was, it was something I'd do every other month or my hair just felt caked down or had build up.

[@brianadunn36]

I absolutely loved your video. you gave so much insight & was very detailed. A few questions i had were: 1. when you used the first 2 protein treatment products did you use both on top of each other on each section of your hair? or did you use one at a time after washing them out at the suggested time?? 2. when allowing the protein products to sit, did you shampoo & deep condition wash them out?

[@DayeLaSoul]

Briana Dunn thank you. I did what I explained in 1:57 and 2:31

[@queenh4073]

Great great video. I Definitely need to add protein to my regime.

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Hannah Hunte thanks for watching!

[@natashasmith7018]

I wanted to know what's your morning routine like after a keratin treatment? Do you have to put any product on your hair or do you spritz with a little oil or water?

[@misscrystaawl]

How often do you do the protein treatment??

[@naturalgurl906]

ur hair is beautiful I'll be trying these products on my hair & my daughters

[@DayeLaSoul]

+naturalgurl thank you! Hope you enjoy!

[@_Marissathom]

when i used aphogee I feel I had better growth I need to get back into it. thanks

[@chelleyluvsretro19]

This video was super informative. Thanks, I was just curious about where you got your hair accessory you put in your hair at the end of the video?

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Rachelle D thanks for watching! It's just Bobby pins on top of each other

[@chelleyluvsretro19]

Oh lol. That's pretty creative. Thanks for responding back.

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Rachelle D No prob!

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Naturalldubz (NaturalLDUBZ) thanks for watching boo!

[@LaWandaT]

You are most welcome lovebug 🤗

[@MrzNessakay84]

question, you said it should stay on for a min for one half of your head and then 2 mins for the other half. So how long did you sit under the dryer? Are you counting the time you applied it, or you started timing it once you finished applying the product? thanks a lot ☺

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Vanessa Olszen I know my hair can handle protein so I did more than the suggested time but I recommend everyone follow the directions if unfamiliar. The time counts after applying (it would take more than a minute to apply it to your entire head so that wouldn't make sense to count as soon as the product touches your head).

[@MrzNessakay84]

Appreciate the respond back. Thank you

[@karistan0108]

Love this review!! Thank you!

[@Jazz3910]

i really appreciate your informative videos.....this will help me a lot i have always been scared to use protein because of what i "heard" but your hair reminds me of mine....mine is fine but very dense (om still working on figuring out my porosity level

[@gwendolyncarla]

Love your channel and hair! Skin care routine? 👀

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Gwendolyn Alexandre thank you! I'm trying a new product and seeing some great results these first couple weeks. I'll post it if it works!

[@darlingk9024]

So it took at least a few months for your hair to completely revert back to curly coily, right? I'm asking because I've started doing protein treatments on the damaged part of my hair. I definitely see changes but idk if this is as good as it is going to get girl. Maybe I'm just being impatient. Anyways your videos are always so helpful and I recommend them to everybody!! Your KZbin channel is the only one that helped me grow my hair! I thank God for leading me to your channel!

[@DayeLaSoul]

The dates/years are on the pictures and I also talked about the time frame as they played... be patient it doesn’t happen over night

[@cosmopae9031]

How often do you wash your hair?? And do you have a video about co washing??

[@DayeLaSoul]

+MsPaetonElise I do everything on an as needed basis. I Cowash at least every two weeks, but it might be once a week or multiple times in the same week. And I shampoo every 30-60 days, but could be more if I notice build up.

[@sofiaadem2135]

Hi, I just discovered your channel. You have a beautiful hair. I really want a protein treatment and I did the diy mayo treatment but didn't do much for me. How should I choose the best Protein treatement for my hair type or does it state on the bottle for what kind of hair it is. Sorry I have never put a protein or protein-containing product on my hair before. Thank you!

[@Kaye753]

very informative , love it !

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Kaye Lovelee thank you!

[@Domonique025]

I really needed this thanks 😍😍😍

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Monique Bridges yay! Thanks for watching!

[@trishaunawhite8212]

Hey I did enjoy this video as I was well informed.. definitely will try this but do you think it's safe for me to dye my hair once I use a colour treated shampoo?

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Trishauna White idk, that's a question for a cosmetologist

[@somethintru1]

Great info. Thank you.

[@queenbee12ist]

During that 4 year span, did you ever cut off any heat damage, or did you just let the protein treatments recover your curls?

[@DayeLaSoul]

+brooke chase the first 3 years i didn’t use the protein treatment but yes, I cut my hair regularly and continued to do so when I started using it.

[@hellow4130]

Which would you say is the stronger treatment when it comes to strengthening?

[@Ayesha_5782]

Is vitale olive oil hair mayonnaise a good protein treatment or is it too light of a protein treatment? Should I get a stronger one?

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Ayesha King idk about that brand and I wouldn't know what strength anyone else's hair would need which is why I linked that product grid for aphogee to assist you all

[@angelganggirl]

oml thank you for the hope!!! my hair is heat damage and I thought I would have to cut it off.

[@DayeLaSoul]

+areonnia sucks hope it helps!

[@janara0914]

ari the deist you should cut it

[@niceyh.2529]

very nice video. how did you save your spirals over night

[@RachelBada]

I Need to try this

[@iamtierralafrance]

What colors are in your hair? I love it!

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Tierra Lafrance details in my description box.. thank you!

[@iamamarie]

does the leave in and curl definer leave your hair hard being as tho it has protein in it and you're low porous? I'm low porous as well and sometimes too much protein can make my hair stiff. the 2 minute reconstructor doesn't tho.

[@thallynouuu]

Could you publish a video about your hair transition? You're beautiful

[@DayeLaSoul]

+t.g thank you! I talked about my transition in this video and the mistakes I made and what helped.

[@mel3.6.5]

Love your pattern! ❤️

[@DayeLaSoul]

+MELMATT365 thank you boo!

[@mimistacks5689]

what do you use to color your hair. my hair got bleached & colored RED in Aug. now it's the color of CHUCKY's hair lol I'm soo over it. & my hair is breaking. I love your hair.

[@PUNKGIRLrock24]

Mimi Stacks deep condition and do protein treatments. Low manipulation until it gets back healthy

[@yesshetalks]

Would you suggest the 2 step protein treatment for really heat damaged hair?

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Trisha Lindsay check out the chart I referenced in the video so you can assess which product would be best for your hair.

[@maurinaruff5328]

okay so I'm back again lol and i want to give protein treatments a try but i am worried about the results bc I've heard good and bad stories you know. so do you have any tips on keeping the hair safe while trying new things?

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Maurina Ruff in this video I gave several tips on how to introduce protein in your regimen, check it out!

[@ttjane3790]

my hair is 4c and natural, And now that it has gotten longer which is great!!! my ends have become more thinner and transparent. Also my hair sheds like crazy! Since I leave it Braided under my weaves for a at least a month...Do u think that the protein treatment will make it thicker? And how many times do you use it exactly?

[@DayeLaSoul]

Check out the video to see the benefits of protein treatments. Also you may want to get those ends cut, if they’re transparent, they’re dead.

[@stunninbeauty1]

Omg thanks for the video but just to wonder...I never protein treated my hair since I was fully natural over 2 yrs natural...I have had many set back but I keep moving on. I'm trying to decide how will I know if I need a treatment? ??

[@DayeLaSoul]

+stunninbeauty1 I listed the benefits in the video, if you think any of those apply, then it might help

[@stunninbeauty1]

+Daye La Soul thanks I will try to review and see if this help me at all...

[@DayeLaSoul]

+stunninbeauty1 nice!

[@BeMoreGardenGirl]

I was wondering what you do to maintain this style when sleeping. I want to try a wash and go but I don't know what to do with my hair when I go to sleep.

[@salmahafsa2266]

I have low porosity hair and I was looking for a protein treatment. I was told aphogee would be too strong for my hair but all this light protein such as Shea moisture jbco, ors, or African best aren't really working that well. Maybe I should give aphogee a try. Just hoping it wouldn't be protein overload.

[@DayeLaSoul]

+Salma Hafsa make sure you test patch. Porosity doesn't dictate protein sensitivity.

[@lilo-y-stitch3460]

Hey! I wanted to know how often you recommend someone should get a protein treatment

[@DayeLaSoul]

+lydk I addressed that in this video, I hope you check it out when you find the time!

[@Sophisticated8]

I was using the 1 in the purple bottle that stuff had my scalp soo irirtated until I had to go back and conditon my hair all over agin with something else so I gave it away to my daughter I did kinda like the yellow bottle its always hard to come by @ sallys my hair dont like a lot of protein I need a light protein and I cant get any on my scalp .

[@monielovely88]
