How to grow long hair fast - Ep1 POROSITY

[@FloweringCreativity]

learning my hair was low porosity was a game changer for my hair retention. i feel like knowing your porosity is wayyy more important than knowing your hair type. great, informative vid as always. thank u❤

[@shanellpittman7742]

yes so true

[@CurlyProverbz]

Thanks love! I agree... Otherwise you struggle with the basics like retaining moisture

Six years later, your videos are still informing and teaching people. Thank you. ❤

That's right!

[@ravenkirk1638]

OMG you saved my life. My hair would either be dry or super sticky and greasy all because I was using the wrong products for my low porosity hair. Now my hair is super soft and shiny

[@LorraineAlberto]

Please make more videos for Low Porosity hair ☺

You are truly one of the best natural hair ladies that I've ever seen on the tube! I'm learning a lot of new things from you.

[@MyNaturalMyChoice]

This is the first time I truly understand porosity of hair. Thanks for explaining and sharing. Back to the video.

[@CurlyProverbz]

Aw that's awesome LOVE.. 💜💋

[@phillygal5016]

I've been watching natural hair KZbin Videos for almost 2 years and this is my first time ever writing a comment. This is BY FAR the most informative, most detailed, most helpful video that I've seen on hair porosity, hands down! Like many other naturals, I struggle with finding products that work well to keep my (low porosity) hair moistured. I felt like you were speaking to me in this video. You are beautiful, smart, and a warm spirited woman with gorgeous hair! Many thanks. I've already started incorporating your recommendations and I already notice a difference! .... Much love, from USA..... xoxox

[@CurlyProverbz]

WOW love....Floored...Thank you :) xo Much love back at you.

[@librasun]

I have low porosity hair and love using heavy butters. I use a sulfate free clarifying shampoo twice but go a step further. I shampoo my hair in warm to hot water which opens cuticles and allows shampoo to remove dirt & butters. Next I put on my conditioner and rinse it off with cool water which will help starts the process of sealing in moisture and my hair is not frizzy. Once I started doing this my hair thrived no matter products I used.

[@mayaarroyoburton9027]

I do the same thing and I realize such a difference... The only thing I'm concerned about is the cool water rinse... Since I have low porosity hair, wouldn't it seal the hair cuticles to the point where leaves in and styling products won't absorb into it?

[@dominique4432]

@@mayaarroyoburton9027 I've heard someone mention refrigerating their leave in but I've never tried it. I rinse with warm water and I have frizzy hair

I HAVE BEEN watching you for 5 years and I always come back to this playlist. You grew my hair dramatically. So blessed to have you in my life and to have come across your videos. Episodes labeled 1,2,3 etc. My brain understands the order better. You saved me from chin length hair mostly all my life. I love when you number the videos, so easy to follow for us labeld GOLD and GREEN personalty types. Thank you so much. Blessing and divine favor to you and your family for the work and knowledge yall put in. It takes a team!

[@onlyonelikemexx9068]

I have low porosity hair, lots of shedding and single strand knots, please do a video on getting rid of my problem with the knots, its making retaining very difficult please help, oh and I found your video to be helpful, so please continue helping us newbies

[@yazminewalker6060]

yes same here. I try to cut em off when i see em but my hair is like frizzy and just tangles its self. I could brush it and there will still be tangles.

[@JonesDi77]

Yes, ma'am! Same issue here.

[@Godsgraceish]

You might need a trim, that could be the culprit. When was the last time you had a professional trim?

[@maryapatterson]

I am low porosity and protein sensitive, have you tried doing an oil rinse when you wash your hair?

[@onlyonelikemexx9068]

+Doreen Patterson I've never done a oil rinse, what oil is best to use and how does this work?

[@playfulstudio7060]

It has been established in many tests and even a demonstration on utube from Mama Daye that ACV does NOT close the cuticle. Aloe Vera does however. Thanks for your video's, I find them really interesting because you bring new and additional information that other video's just do not provide.

[@JazzyNikole]

This video was a God-send! Single stand knots went away as soon as I started using argan oil.

[@michellecalling]

I'm really learning something about my low porosity hair. I'm going to play your video over and over until I get it all down in my head. I've been hearing a lot of good things about the Camille Rose product line I will definitely give it a go. Thank you so much!

[@sarawr28]

soooooo much useful information. as a hairstylist, I want to offer my clients the best products recommendations for them, and this video explained so much, and very scientifically and eloquently! You're the best.

[@CurlyProverbz]

Wow!! Thanks love ... Means a tonne especially coming from a professional x

[@thaliaforte5460]

For me I have low and high porosity. So it's difficult to get oil in my hair, but then my hair would also soak up some types of oils, like caster oil. However she's right that if you don't use heat, the deep conditioning would run.

[@samsafe7322]

Hello Curly, I was apart of the Belle Bar community and LOVED every minute of it. This where I made my mistake... I was trying to use the kit while under sooo much stress, damage hair, family members passing away and the focus was not there. I stepped away from it and regroup and started over. I did the big chop, cut all the damage hair off (professional done, 2 1/2 inch long). Since the cut, the product from Belle Bar is working wonders for me, and my hair is easier to manage. I’m praying for great result. Thanks Curly and the Belle Bar team for your product and support.

[@ANGIEBEE]

your hair is to die for !!!!!!!!!!!

[@ramsay014]

I've known (for years) what my hair porosity was, but this video made me realize why some products work on my hair while others in my family hate them. I don't know why this video specifically made me realize that we probably have different hair porosity (I've been natural my whole life, they all have relaxers.) So thank you! Now I can stop giving them products that will do nothing for them. lol

[@CurlyProverbz]

Awesome! So glad I could help x

Curly Proverbz What is single strand knots?

[@michaelam4089]

Curly Proverbz Can you make a another episode on Protein balance for hair and using natural oils for your hair ?! Please

[@ellekersey6661]

Girl, you are giving me life! I just found out about you and of course, I had to subscribe. Have watched quite a few episodes and going back through to take some notes. Understanding this porosity thing has freed me to be willing to start my hair growth journey again. I have been natural for 15 years but I would never let it get "long" because of how it felt and would be unruly because of the dryness. I was considering "Sisterlocs" for the past month or so. But I think I am going to give this method a try instead. I am looking forward to trying the cassia since my hair is naturally jet black instead of the henna, and letting my curls live again. Thanks for sharing! Oh yeah, glycerin is my jam!

[@wandajohnson1919]

Thank you very much!! I recently discovered I am high porosity. For a very long time I have wondered why my hair was so sensitive to chemicals and other products. My hair would grow to a certain length then break. It would also get so dry it felt brittle and hard. Now I know why. Your video has been very very helpful. I have seen the Camilla Rose products in Walmart. Will go and pick them up today. Thanks again!!

[@angeladavid39]

Farida, you are a love; I have High prorosity hair and this is the first tutorial ever to explain why some things work and others don't ... don't ever stop doing what you're doing, ur a godsend xoxoxo

[@donnadoram357]

This information was superb!! I never knew what porosity my hair was but you've explained it so well I am low porosity. I put conditioner on my hair and it does very little. A stylist friend said he watched a conditioner just sit on my hair. It didn't absorb at all.

[@chev1450]

I just give up on trying and let my hair do what it wants... Cause I really think most people think buying products can give them a curl pattern they weren't born with

[@noirprncess]

I have medium to high porosity hair. With regular use of protein and Roux Porosity Control, I was able to turn things around. But regular deep conditioning helps as well. I haven't tried this line of products yet but will try them soon.

[@butterflychic8816]

PLEASE make more video's abt low porosity hair!

[@purplebutterfly360]

Great video that's very informative. I have 4c hair and it loves moisture...natural since 2003. The problem with my hair (I don't know if anyone else has experienced this), is that my hair doesn't like oils of any kind light or heavy when damp or wet. It tends to make my hair shed, and I know this is really weird so I don't even know if it's sealed or whatever. My hair is not happy if I don't let water hit it every other day, else it will become very dry and knotted, and yes we use a shower filter,

[@aliciabrown3525]

Great great video loads of info. I do have to watch again because it was a lot to absorb all at once. Once I determine my hair type I will use the suggestions offered. Thank U so much!!!

[@n2xrcise]

Your explanations of porosity makes it so easy to understand! I know that I'm high porosity but now I'm starting to believe that my step daughter is low so what works for my hair won't really work for hers. I've never tried Camille Rose Naturals but I think I will next time I stock up on hair products. Thank you so much for all of your information.

[@mrod87]

Listen Linda (people who are on this page) this woman KNOOOWWWSSS what she is talking about. I have followed her and incorporated her simple tips (not all, the ones I know I can do easily) and she knowsss! First time in my life I can maintain a twist out for 2-3 weeks...first time I can wear a wash n go and my hair root to tip is consistent in curl pattern....I dont know if its because my hair is very similar to hers in texture...but if you have coarse hair with a coily curl pattern and your hair is super dense and thick...listen to herrrr! lol...

[@ohyummyitspauly]

Whats your routine to make your twist outs last that long? What vids of hers do you recommend? Thanks

[@mrod87]

for twist outs...i leave spritz my hair with water, add shea butter to my ends and flat twist into two twists at night (or for the gym...leave my hair twisted til its dry)...also...I have a really good hair cut...i dont keep dead ends, and I think having my hair all one texture/curl pattern has really helped the longevity of my styles...also I only twist dry/damp hair...wet twist outs make my hair tangled. As far as videos...her videos about henna, deep conditioners, and indian hair products are the ones that I have incorporated into my routine.

[@ohyummyitspauly]

Michelle Rodgers Thank you!

[@mrod87]

general stuff i do bc momma proverbz told me....I always put oil on my hair the night before i wash, i henna or henna gloss (henna and conditioner or henna and coconut milk) once a month, i deep condition my hair with heat EVERYTIME I WASH, i take MSM topically on my scalp and as a vitamin, as soon as my ends are not easy to detangle i go get a trim, and I use the vatika deep conditioner (super cheap), crece pelo, and silicon mix as deep treatments...thats all i can think of off the top of my head. but my routine is super simple and fairly in-expensive....and 90% of it is stuff she has shared....oh and i add steeped marshmallow root gel (you make it like you make flax seed gel kinda) to my conditioner to detangle my hair...i couldnt tell you the last time i used a comb.

Have a beautiful day!!!! Oh and that pic you see there is when my long hair was on its way to dry damaged awfulness, all that has been chopped off, I just don't want to post a pic of my awful mess I have going on right now as I had cut off the damaged hair by myself and the cut is awful, anywhoo, we are kissing all that dry damage and chemical poison good buy for ever.

I have low porosity hair, and just realized that I have this porosity for sure by watching SunKissAlba's porosity maintenance video she uploaded back in February. Before then, I knew there was a possibility that my hair was low porosity even though hair stylists had told me that my hair was normal porosity. I have been putting notes in my phone about my natural hair since 2014, so that helped a lot. I always clarify my hair since I have wash day every 2 weeks, and tried a cleansing conditioner last year for 5 months, but it didn't work. So I went back to using the clarifying sulfate-free shampoo that my hair loves which is SheaMoisture African Black Soap Deep Cleansing Shampoo. I deep condition under a hooded dryer every wash day. The styling products I use have hydrolyzed protein and wheat protein in them. The SheaMoisture masque I use has hydrolyzed protein it in. The LCO method has been a huge help to me since May 2013 shortly after I chopped off my heat damaged back that same month.

[@DW5918]

I have high porosity hair. Living in Florida doesn't help at all. Definitely looking into using henna and some averydic herbs. Hopefully this helps me. I already use castor and cocconut oils, and aromoa oil such tea tree and rosemary.

[@fablaids6618]

my hair is highly porous and I only use coconut oil as a pre poo or mixed with other oils (castor oil, olive oil and some essential oils) on its own it feels like straw even with the loc method.....but shea butter is my love! I use the products from uncle funky's daughter n seal with shea butter or the mane choice butter.....great video!

[@lasicafinch9713]

Hi Curly Proverbz, I did the hair in the glass test to see if I have high medium or low porosity. My hair is natural and when I put my hair in because of the curlness the strand of hair was on the top and underneath the water. So what does that mean. I haven't washed my hair for two days, no oil in my hair. I normally wash my hair every second day. And thank you for episode. Now I think I understand what "Porosity" means.

[@JonesDi77]

After watching your video, I redid the porosity test twice and discovered my hair is low porosity rather than high porosity. I just started the gro-aut system along with the MSM (I have the powder because I it is a part of my supplement routine) to grow my hair longer, but I need a better regimen for getting my hair softer. I have been natural for several years, but my hair has become dry and brittle for the last few years and it sheds and breaks (fairy knots even though I don't use heat or wear it down). Help!!

[@moxyoonyx2713]

As someone W/HIGH POROSITY hair i don't agree about the leave ins & the aloe vera. When you wash & cond./deep condition your hair you can seal your cuticle right away when you rinse out your conditioner by using a cold water or cold apple cider vinegar rinse (best results). WHEN YOU RINSE YOUR HAIR ITS ALREADY FULL OF THE MOISTURIZE OTHERS ARE STILL TRYING TO GET. Open cuticles are a tangling nightmare to high porosity hair, the sooner u seal,the better. Focus on sealing the cuticle to retain moisture as long as it can (usually up to 2 days max). The challenge with high porosity hair is not allowing cuticles to dry in the raised position 1)easily knots & matts as the open cuticles lock onto nearby follicles & 2)releases moisture even faster. When it comes to moisturize & seal, favor one heavy cream or whip with humectants over their watery sprays conterparts. A DIY coconut oil, aloe vera & detangler whipped together would weigh the cuticle down allowing just enough rise to moisturize🤔

[@kimoni6]

Aloe Vera juice does help to close it. some people are allergic to AV and it days some people hair out. I believe if the mix it with vegetable glycerin and water it helps a great deal and not to use to much AV in the mix.

Wow I'm so glad to have found your channel. I'm learning so much. Love your channel. Thank you.

My hair is always dry, even absorbs gel! I am going to try your low porosity products and will let you know how it works out.

I would really appreciate if you could do a video on caring for these hair types when the humidity levels increase. I live in a normally dry climate. When the weather is warmer humidity increases, or when I go on vacation to places like the Caribbean where humidity is through the roof, I experience lots of breakage upon returning home, Thanking you in advance.

[@deejcarter2003]

Thanks so much! You shared such useful information. I really loved how you explained why the product worked on the different hair types.

I am so glad you loved the video.... I was so worried it was too long! I had to cut it down from 28 minutes....

[@vickievictor5924]

Such a great video! Can also you discuss how to alter our hair routine with our porosity in mind if we live in a place with long and harsh winters? I am originally from Miami where it is extremely humid and there is a lot of moisture in the air but I now go to school in Massachusetts which is the exact opposite. My hair suffered a lot last year even though I tried to change things up.

Hi beautiful I have to start by saying I love you I love what you’re doing because don’t usually reveal they’re hair grow secrets much luv❤️🌹my question for you today I have relaxed hair but I’m really interested to follow you’re treatments I was wondering if they will work with relaxed hair or I have to go natural I started some stuff like the tea, the fenugreek and avocado they worked well but I started my henna can I still relax my hair or go natural?? Thank you in advance for replying ❤️❤️

[@jordgubbe9187]

I'm not CP, but I think you should go natural because I have heard that henna+perm doesn't work out well at all. Also, perms aren't good for your health. You can do basically anything but henna if you still want to perm. Ultimately it is up to you. Good luck!

[@isabelledevilme4404]

Jordgubbe thank you very much love you just save my hair have great evening 😘🥰🥰

[@jordgubbe9187]

@@isabelledevilme4404 No problem. Are you still going to perm?

[@isabelledevilme4404]

Jordgubbe yes I was trying to go natural but I found it difficult dealing with 2 different hair type hard to managed 😢

[@jordgubbe9187]

@@isabelledevilme4404 I think you should still go natural. Perms are very bad for your health. They even can cause fibroids. I have never had a perm, so I don't know what transitioning is like. But it does require a lot of patience. What you can do is cut of the permed hair and grow out the natural hair. Or, as the natural hair grows, you cut off a little of the permed hair until it is gone. I am still learning about my hair. It is becoming more manageable when I take proper care of it. How much of the hair is natural?
