[@gimmewaves8544]

Okay. I have THE MOST hig porosity hair. I tried this method and OMGeeeeeeee!!!!!! The difference in my hair wash experience, instant ease and slip, and SHIIIIINNNEE from the ACV! Amazing. I tried this and it's the TRUTH! Thank you so much Nadine!

[@naturalnadinee]

Wow thank you for this! So glad it helped you & yesss to the shine and slip ACV is that gworlllll! Xxxxx

[@Trants25]

I can't wait to try. My hair is super high porosity too; drinks moisturizers and conditioners daily. From the shower to the mirror on wash day, and it's already starting to dry 😒

[@elijahantony4300]

Aww thank you! Glad I could help gorl and there’s more of that to come 🤍💃🏾

[@mrod87]

I started spraying my roots with ACV/water mix along with my pre poo, to calm my scalp and break up any build up. Either as a final rinse or sprayed into my deep conditioner….game changer. My hair still feels clean but it doesn’t feel as stripped as it usually does i think it’s bc it drops the ph of the shampoo a bit. As a final step in my routine my hair just feels smoother and sleeker. I’m excited to see what doing this over the course of the year does to my hair.

[@Kay-ev2yh]

Same - I spritz it on 15-20 mins before shampoo and as a final rinse after deep condish; I'll never do without this step. My hair feels so soft, is more manageable for styling and overall smoother and shinier. I honestly think it's due to incorporating ACV/water

[@arib3225]

this makes so much sense bc when i use bentonite clay with ACV my hair is the most moisturized and bouncy ever!

[@mystic0screams]

Bentonite clay has been a game changer

[@xluvinvainx]

I am so glad I stumbled upon your channel. I tried the deep conditioning with the AVC rinse on top method, and all I can say is WOW. My curls were more defined throughout the strand, and my hair was so soft, shiny and manageable. Also my natural hair color just looked so much richer if that makes any sense. I'm currently a flat twist girl, but with the way my hair was looking after washing it, I'm finally ready to try wash and gos. I've been natural over 10 years and haven't successfully completed one. Wish me luck! Thank you so much for sharing this information!

[@naturalnadinee]

Wow glad it helped so much yess if I want my wash n go to pop ACV first is a must for me too 😭 the more you use it the better it gets as well! & omg I totally get what you mean about the hair colour being richer!! I never knew how to explain it but my hair looked more black. Thank you so much for this comment I love hearing feedback 🤍🤍🤍

[@brownsugah305]

I am going to go back to doing ACV amd aloe water rinses I used to do it and my hair loved it so much and I used to do cold water rinses.

[@NigeriaG]

I used to use acv rinses regularly and now looking back this is probably one of the main things I need to add back. I've always been a low maintenance girl and I have been analyzing what changes started causing me to get way more breakage and I can definitely say I used to retain moisture more and you've helped me find ways to retain length too.

[@naturalnadinee]

That’s so good! I’m glad it’s helped ACV changed the game for me too fr!xx

[@luvmike08]

I found that plant gels (mushroom root, aloe vera etc..) also have the same effect of moisture retention as well. Will incorporate your method as well.

[@mrod87]

I did it recently….truly a game changer. It’s like magic, it makes any conditioner have slip. I had an old twisting butter i never use but had good ingredients, i put it in my hair and sprayed ACV on top, it even made that a slippery pre poo.

[@dominiquereece8545]

So you mix both the DC and the ACV and let it stay on for how long?

[@betzaidaflores2477]

@@dominiquereece8545 so what I personally do is dilute some acv in water and put it in a spray bottle. I apply my DC (preferably one that smells really good to help with the acv smell) and spray the solution onto my hair. You'll notice it makes the conditioner foam-like. Almost like shampoo. The slip it great! I do it almost every wash now. Acv rinses and using hair grease again have been positive for my hair

[@renettegordley3493]

That's good that your hair can take ACV rinses on wash days. Some people's hair can't. My cousin did them once a week as well & her long pretty hair was long, stringy, ate out, & unhealthy & had to be cut many inches within one year. That acid was eating her cuticle, shaft, & all of her hair out over time! That was a few years ago & without using the ACV so often (2x in 3 years) her hair is back to being healthy & long. I guess her hair couldn't thrive with it as often as your hair can.

[@ma_kal]

Was the acv diluted?

[@brittanymilgan]

Acv diluted or not is an acid. It will eat through anything including hair. I would not use that, instead use products with low ph

Thank you so much for this video and the one on why black people don't have black hair, really informative videos. How would you recommend we incorporate protein into our routine? "High porosity hair needs protein" is a common notion in the black hair community

It’s very common I will do a video on this, but the bottom line is all hair needs lots of protein, our hair is 90%+ protein. Also protein “overload” is not something to fear and being honest it’s not technically possible.

Cool steam vapor is good for high porosity. I had a tool that I bought from china a long time ago and I’d use about once a month.

I love your channel, your knowledge base and your educative approach! However what about Blacks that have multiple hair textures in their head because they have more than one ethnicity (African and Caucasian)? I believe I have both HP and LP. The crown and front of my head is LP and the rest is HP. Can a person have more than one porosity? Is there a study for that? I have watched your other video. Thank you for your answer as I truly want to know.

[@naturalnadinee]

Thank you girl! I really appreciate it and it’s possible to have numerous textures and a spectrum of porosity on one head some areas are lower some can be higher! With regards to dual ethnicities eg one white parent and one black parent will vary completely due to genetics and the individual. It can vary even with siblings that have the same parents textures and porosities can be different😭 I’d say in a case like that just be aware of the different characteristics your hair could possess based on ethnicity and try to assess your own hair on which category suits you best!

Happy I found your page. I have a question/request: Can you do a video on humectants and the weather? My hair is really high porosity, and using any kind of humenctant (man made or natural) works so against me 😢. Meaning I can never where my natural hair out/down because the humectants work too much with the moosture in the air. So for me the whole: draws moisture to the hair is good, is actually a bad thing for my hair. 😢 Is Acv rinse really enough to seal my cuticle? Im looking now into products that are really low in humectants, but most of the time They are thick and full of oils and make my hair greasy and weighed down, so then i feel the need to use a little heat to stretch my style (after it has dried) just to get back Some volume (else my hair looks like a wet dog who had almost no hair😅)

[@naturalnadinee]

Hey! Sorry for my lateee response! && yes as a first I’d try ACV which will help seal your hair cuticles, also I know silicones are a swear word but they could actually help in your case! They’re more lightweight than oils Etc and still form a protective barrier over our hair to protect from the environment xxx

[@Leah_Tewari]

I have the same issue. I live in the southwest Florida. The only time I can use a product with glycerin is when I’m going to rinse it out. Otherwise I style with products that have little to no glycerin in them such as Kinky Curly Knot Today and Kinky Curly Curling Custard. I don’t use silicones because I don’t use conventional shampoos - they strip my hair way too much, including the non SLS shampoos. I use only clays and herbs to cleanse my hair (with ACV mixed in them of course 😅).

[@majormediaproductions]

Thanks so much for this video❤ I just found your channel. You mentioned that steaming high porosity hair will raise the cuticles too much. That is sooo true.

I have high po, looser curls through my whole head, EXCEPT for the whole front "perimeter only" of my hair I have 4c and low porosity😢 (You know the part when you get a sew in weave, that front section of the hair thats set aside to cover the weave tracts after sewing the hair. The leave out part.) That part of my hair just hardly ever absorbs the conditioner, products will just sit on top in beads. I haven't found my hair twin on yt yet lol How can moisturize my low porosity section that happens to be the front perimeter of my hair? Any tips🤷🏾‍♀️😚💗

Wait so you don’t wash out the deep conditioner you just apply the acv right on top? Also can I use a regular conditioner to rinse out the acv and deep conditioner or should I just not use a regular conditioner? And after this routine do you have to moisturize / do an LCO routine/ apply any extra oils?

[@naturalnadinee]

Yes! So I apply a deep conditioner a couple seconds later apply ACV mixture then work in. (This seals the moisture from the deep conditioner into my hair) Keep the “mixture” on for 20 minutes or however long you deep condition for. Then rinse. I used to apply the ACV before the deep conditioner as ACV has cleansing properties but I wasn’t absorbing as much DC as I’d like. When I applied it after deep conditioning I’d find it would almost remove the deep conditioner I applied on so applying simultaneously has been the sweet spot for me😌 I no longer use leave in conditioners/creams/oil because ny hair doesn’t need it (if your hair does keep doing it but you’ll find the more you seal your cuticle the less extra products you’ll feel the need to add, especially oils) but my trick is when I apply my conditioner I rinse out most of it and leave a little in my hair. Rinse out&leave in conditioners are formulated the same so it just cuts out the extra steps and products. Then I’d style with my styling product (gel). Sorry for the big fat essay🤣🤣🤍🤍

So it’s Shampoo Deep condition rinsed with ACV Then wash with water?

[@naturalnadinee]

Yes, that’s how I do it 😌😌

[@louisiana8357]

@Sam Wills so you rinse the conditioner out with apple cider vinegar water and rerinse with plan water?

[@minhanhpham77]

I'm thinking of replaceing ACV with fermented rice water since rice water is also acidic and it adds protein. Is this a good idea

[@naturalnadinee]

Rice water has too much protein for me to use regularly but so I wouldn’t recommend but your hair might react differently x

[@shevewelch306]

So after I washed out the deep conditioner I spray in the apple cyder in my hair? Or I spray the apple cyer while the deep conditioner is in it?

[@naturalnadinee]

Hey girl spray on top of DC! Works better for me I have a tutorial on my channel xx

[@meyou7990]

So wash first, deep conditioner and then tone? Can I use a leave in after I tone?

[@naturalnadinee]

Yes you can! & I tone and DC simultaneously Xxx

Where do I include flax seed gel mask for moisture?

[@IAMCHIDERA]

wouldn't you say a better routine is shampoo, deep conditioner, LOC, and apple cider to seal it all in?

[@ma_kal]

The smell tho, how would you get rid of it???

[@ibyou5062]

Of we Don’t have apple vinegar, should I apply conditionner after the Depp conditioner?

[@starbright3320]

I'm really confused now on porosity.

[@naturalnadinee]

Don’t be! I would honestly say to watch the part 2 video on porosity it’s not as simple as we’ve made out but it’s also not that complicated xxx

[@jordanawalker5544]

Hey 👋🏿, thanks for info. I use kaolin clay which has a ph of 4.5. Should I mixed Acv with my clay mask to seal the cuticle before deep conditioning? Or do you think that it would be better to make my clay mask with water first then deep conditioner with acv?

[@naturalnadinee]

To be honest the bentonite clay typically has ACV mix so I don’t see why not the same for Kaolin clay! I would mix to skip the extra step just know the DC will take a bit longer to penetrate as you’ve sealed your cuticles x

[@okairo-9658]

heyy, i really want to try this, is there any particular water / acv ratio i should use?? also--after the rinse, i can put a leave in and gel like normal, right??

[@naturalnadinee]

I would say 1:3 acv fo water & yes style your hair as normal xxx

[@mostbeautifulbelovedgarden]

Thank you!!! I used a boar bristle brush today to push through the natural oils of my hair and detangle.. boy did that smoothe the cuticles down!

[@poojajain5170]

When should i add AVC spray ? I use shampoo and a leave in conditioner then a hair serum . I don’t use conditioner or DC for now . Leave in conditioner is spray water like .

Do you wash the apple cider vinegar water out of your hair??

[@naturalnadinee]

Yes I apply it on top of my DC so when I rinse my DC I also rinse the ACV xx

[@lovejones4024]

Acv on top deep conditioner, can u use heat? I'm confused lol

[@naturalnadinee]

Yess I mix it because I don’t want To apply ACV after deep conditioning and remove the product I’ve found mixing works well. I also use heat that’s a non negotiable for my DC routine but be prepared for extra frizz due to heat, but once your hair cools down the balanced PH will still make sure your cuticles are sealed! I need to do a more in depth video xxxx

Hi Nadine! Have you ever thought to talk about Black women's skin and how to take care of it? Because it seems like I can't seem to find anything that works for my dry skin😭

[@naturalnadinee]

Hey girl sorry for my late response this comment was in my filtered section! I’ll be honest I’m not to well versed on skin 😭 but my body skin is extremely dry and I can literally only use moisturisers my mum brings back from zimbabwe or Jergens it’s an Arabic brand and super moisturising xxx

Try a natural facial soap without sulfates and organic coconut oil after the shower.
