my hair growing up fucking LOVED grease. but now that I've gone thru the natural hair movement I'm... back to the grease it's better than even shea butter. my only qualm is that it's a petrol product thus not good for the environment 😭 but NOTHING I MEAN NOTHING LOCKS MOISTURE into my skin and hair like GREASE.

[@galaxyangel9128]

@@uarestrong76 I think the black community abandoned grease like it wasn't holding it down for our hair growth

[@alyshiadavis4957]

Yeah girl, I'm back too! and my hair is so soft and feels less brittle. It's only been about a week but the hair still feels moisturized.

[@queenjones8051]

It is so crazy for natural hair influencers can be so influential. I mean one person convinced someone grease was bad for you and they convinced someone else and that person convinced 10 other people and the cycle repeated until damn near everyone stopped using grease. If no one ever said that grease was bad. We would’ve never stopped using it

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

Yep. To be fair, petrolatum and petroleum ARE clogging to the pores. I personally don't want them on my scalp, but I think tweaking the application to the hair instead has a lot of benefits!

[@TheVideti]

Yeah if a products doesn't work for one person they call it "crappy" and say it's bad for everyone and people jump on the band wagon without doing their own research. People were even saying it cloggs pores but I've seen many scientist say that petroleum/petrolatum molecules are too large to cloggs pores. They can lay on top and trap dirt and oils in the pores but they can't get inside to actually clog pores. Many of same people who say they don't use grease because it "clogs pores" are okay with using coconut oil and coconut oil has been proven to clog pores. 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@flowergirle9250]

@planetvict0ria Yes I have seen where petroleum jelly was considered non pore clogging while coconut oil has moderate to high pore clogging potential. I know from personally experience that olive and coconut oil cause pore clogging on my face and dandruff on my scalp. Petroleum jelly never clogs my pores, but feel like it smothers my scalp and makes my hair greasy. so I don’t love it on my hair/scalp. I also didnt have huge success with LCO or LOC method on my hair. I prefer to go product free, no shampoo, conditioner, leave-in, oil, butter, cream, or nothing. I haven’t used any of the above in 18 months and my hair is surprisingly thriving on just sebum and water. Growing, staying moisturized, easy to manipulate, barely any splits. And the best part of all hair care easy and dirt cheap. I recently noticed even edges I didn’t know I was missing growing in, like my whole scalp regenerating from being able to breathe.

[@vastya.3255]

LaToya Ebony both substances cant clog the pores since theyre non comedogenic. they will clog up your pores just as much as an oil would.

[@setapartaay925]

Queen Jones I’m so glad I never stopped using grease. I go for what I know works for me!! I love it!!

[@lavaxo6995]

I still don’t know why I let these people convince me grease is bad for my hair, lawd y’all should’ve seen my face when I used it and realized how long it kept my hair moisturized, I can use just water and seal with the grease but if I use a thicker leave in and seal with the grease it stays moisturized even longer

[@apara2005]

I'm a Chemist and trust me there is NOTHING wrong with mineral oil/petroleum. It's an excellent otc sealant. Only thing that's bad about it is it can cause irritation in SOME people. Same as any ingredient. For example, coconut oil is one of the best pentrating oils but, some people are allergic to that too. And, there is NOTHING wrong with sulfates. Sulfate free still strips the hell out of your skin and hair. What makes a shampoo not stripping is the humectants thats added to it. Just have to read rhe label and not focus on the "evil" sulfates. Sorry for the rant, but it's hard when people don't listen to scientist who actually make these products. Keep using your hair grease if it works for you ❤👍🏾. I have a sensitive scalp and can't use mineral oil or coconut oil or barely anything....lol. sigh!

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

Thank you for sharing! You’re right. I think if people just use what works for THEM it would clear up a lot of fear and confusion as well. 🙌🏾 Thank you for your insight!

Very true some moisturizing shampoos of Shea moisture stripped the hell out of my hair. I read up on the ingredients and realised thair cleansing agent was just as agressive as sulfates😂😂😂😂

[@kinlabelle1]

Yes!! My husband is a chemist and he said the same thing about sulfate based shampoos and shampoos that use sodium hydroxide (creamed nature) to cleanse and soften hair. I alternate shea butter with Blue Magic when I twist up my hair and put it in a bun. I use Blue Magic to keep my ends from knotting and breaking.

[@vanessaclark3443]

Grease is a perfect science, it only makes sense why it works for our hair! From sealing in the moisture to giving it softness and shine and so many varieties, what's not to love? My hair has been thriving and growing so much since I went back into it in May of this year, I grease my scalp with BB's Pine Tar and seal my hair with Dax's greases (I interchanged between using their Green, Blue, Hemp, and Lanolin) and sometimes with BB's Hair Food grease. My nape used to be practically bald but now it's shoulder length when stretched, my hair overall is the longest I've ever had it since going natural (not counting when I wore locs)! If it works, it works, and grease definitely works!

[@lilprincie1]

Grease all the way! I started my natural hair journey in 2017 doing the oils, moisturizers bla bla bla... And my hair grew but the texture was always coarse. That's not what I remember grow up. Then one day being all out of oils I used the blue magic grease I bought over a year ago and BOOM in bounced the soft curly hair I remember... Soft, moisturised and juicy looking. Trust me...I'm never going back!

[@starbaby2671]

My experience has been completely different from everyone else. When I used grease, my hair never grew past my collar bones. But once I used organic hair care products, oil, and butters like shea, kokum, and Cocoa my hair GREW!

[@starbaby2671]

Everyone is unique and different. What works for one doesn’t work for the other

[@lookingatdaisies9901]

In my opinion, previously when we were using grease we didn't know the " protective style, low manipulation, seal your ends, reduce friction" part of maintaining our hair. My hair wasn't retaining length with grease then, but it is now.

I went back to using grease, specifically on my scalp, January 2020. My scalp health took a terrible turn and endured years of suffering due to dandruff, horrible dryness, and itchy/flaky scales, and stress. My scalp has done a complete turn around thanks to Blue Magic and Sulfur 8!

[@Boyhead1973]

Yes girl!!! I too use it! And yes - I have to clarify my hair on wash day - but shoo, it's no big deal because my hair is soft and not brittle when I use grease or seal with grease.

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

Right?! I was SLEEPING! I use sulfates anyway for my scalp, so why not! 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@LadyDee150]

Despite what the KZbin hair gurus teach, I couldn't help turning back to hair grease when I thought of how much it helped make my hair easier to manage as a child. My Mom kept my hair in twists or plaits (braids) for most of the time and always shampooed with a bar soap. I can't remember having any problems with dry or hard-to-detangle hair then. Since returning to natural, I mostly keep my hair in twists and plaits so I do use hair grease, Blue Magic or Softee, as a sealer but never on my scalp, and it still works just fine. I just make sure to use a sulfate shampoo to prevent buildup. BTW your hair looks great!

[@boogermonster1344]

I know how taboo grease is in the natural hair community but I'm not gonna lie, I've been using the Blue Magic Vitamin E hair food with wheat germ & coconut oils since the beginning of the quarantine as a styler along with ORS carrot oil hair creme. Let's just say that my fine strands loves the combo!

[@Doc_McStuffins]

I used to love that carrot cream when I was relaxed. I've forgotten all about it! I have fine strands too. Might be time to revisit.

[@boogermonster1344]

I am so glad that I woke up out of that nightmare and went back to what works, working, and worked for me for the last 4 decades. Its worked for our ancestors and it will continue to work for the next generation if we allow it to. GREASE IS BAE❤️

I use the blue magic indian hemp and it works, definitely kept moisture in my hair. I remember stop using it because of he NHC speaking against it, but it is how you use it and if it works for your hair then go ahead. I agree with the using sulfate to cleanse your hair after using the grease cause ggirrlll the sulfate is needed cause that grease is heavy! Also A little grease goes a long way. I love the look, will try it with that threading method for my next protective style.

Organic hemp for me, but it is still grease, and neem oil is in it.

I love the blue magic super sure gro! I use it after my leave in and moisturizer then I plait my hair and leave it alone for 2 weeks. When I take the plaits down my hair is still moisturizer but I wash it and do it all over again. My hair is flourishing at MBL I hope to be WL by the end of the year.

Grease is amazing. I went back to it about 2 years ago and I'm so glad I did. In a short period of time I had a totally different, healthier head of hair. Try the green one with Bergamot. Much more pleasant as far as the smell. The body and movement that you achieved is off the charts!

[@tammygant4216]

I've been back on grease (as a sealant) for about a year now. it's a definite YES!! Never giving it up again. I love blue magic and dax. I also use Palmer's olive oil formula (wal-mart). It's lighter / less greasy than blue magic and dax but still a great sealant.

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

I’m pretty sure I’ve used that as a child too! Wow memories...

[@vanessam4980]

I think, for protective styling, it makes sense. It seals in the moisture for a long time. For wearing the hair out, it’s too much build-up (also it’s a dust/lint magnet) and I’d hate to hate to use a sulfate shampoo at each wash day. I also fear that it would weigh down curls/kinks.

[@NaturalSuee]

Latoya im just here to thank you for changing the narrative on this topic haha cause whooooo chile i don't know who told people grease was bad for our hair. I use blue magic as sealant and my 4c/4b hair love it.It stays moisturised for over 7days. Keep schooling us ma'am❤

Awww I tried it...again, in adulthood. And the way my scalp & fine hair is set up...whew! It weighed my hair down and my scalp itchy. It's a no for me, sadly 🤷🏾‍♀️😔

I'm heavy handed on grease(blue magic Indian hemp precisely) but I never have a problem when washing... I don't use sulfate shampoos either. I use okra gel as a prepoo and it seems to take away 70% of the greasiness and dirt.

[@Joelise1000]

Curious, how do you make/apply okra gel?

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

I’ve never heard of okra gel... 🤔

[@arielrose6361]

Do tell us about this okra gel 👁👄👁

[@ChiMira991]

The okra plant has green seed pods which when soaked in water over a brief or long period of time or even boiled, brings out a thick slimy consistency just like the flaxseed gel. It's best to use before washing the hair than after cus that would leave the hair squeaky clean and also result in dryness of scalp. It's very perfect for detangling. I seem to achieve a really good wash and go without much effort, I apply it and it does it own thing (again I wouldn't do that on a totally clean hair, only when I'm approaching wash day). It has alot of benefits, I'm not sure I know all of them.

[@ChiMira991]

@@Joelise1000 for me, I just slice the pods and soak in water for a period of 3 to 4 hours. Although some people prefer boiling theirs, it will still give the needed consistency. After soaking, I go ahead and separate the slimy fluid from the mixture. When using it, the hair should not be wet or damp.

Great video quick question for those who want to use grease but not sulfates do think some of the sulfate free clarifying shampoos will work i.e.... Kinky Curly Come Clean, As I Am Curl Clarity, Alikay Black Soap, Shea Mositure JBCO, etc.?

[@djones665]

I feel like I stopped using grease when I started wrapping my hair when I had relaxer.. I felt like it gave me less flow.. I’ve been natural for like last eight years almost and after all the “natural” hair products I have tried.. I’m going back to blue magic because I have been having a lot of split ends and breakage.. mainly because I haven’t been doing the weekly washes and deep conditioning thing lots of naturals say to do..

I love your new intro

[@kimberlyhowell9439]

I used the grease on my hair shaft and ends not on my scalp. I use black castor oil and rice water on my scalp .

[@sabee3064]

I actually did go back to occasionally using hair grease on my scalp. It seems like it's the only thing that soothes the irritation for me, and I have tried nearly everything. I also had success with plain mineral oil.

[@hybridinfodesk409]

When my scalp itches it is tea tree hair grease for me.

WOW! I'm a Dating Coach...but Once a week I do Hair videos in ITALIAN. Yes I live in Milan. 🇨🇮And last week I used #bluemagic and I was SHOCKED to see you using it. Yes. It's FABULOUS. My Hair NEVER felt BETTER or softer. Not for Styling but yes for GROWTH!

[@kimberlyhowell9439]

Shoot I’m thinking about going back to hair grease as well. It did my hair wonders and it made my hair feel thicker . I actually used the one that’s in the video.

[@Iwasonceanonionwithnolayers]

That intro reel was like the natural hair version of the Marvel intro reel. It looks like a movie now! Very nice

[@LaToyaEbonyHair]

Oh my goodness, I hadn’t thought of that- you’re Right!! 🤓 I’m honored.

What is the hairstyle you had in the beginning and can you a video about it?
