I FINALLY Tried Rice Water for 4 WEEKS!

[@OnlyOneJess]

Okay jk everyone, the way I did it in this video is not fermented rice water it’s just regular rice water (after further review lol) I didn’t let it sit out in room temperature I put mine straight in the fridge as shown in the video. If you try rice water you can do it either way but results may vary. Also in some of the videos I watched some people rinsed off the rice and some people didn’t but the results didnt look too much different in each video such just be cautious about that too. Thanks for watching :)

I’ve tried it too. Left the rice water out to ferment and it smells like old dog balls... so gross but I mixed mine with stuff. I steeped some potent nettle and added eucalyptus oil since both are beneficial for hair.

But seeing you used it with orange peel, I might use orange essential oil or something else like that. Thanks for the measurements too bc I never thought about doing that. I did the rice water thing for the non shedding and to strengthen my hair. Idk if it was the conditioner I used on my hair or the leave in but after, my hair was sooooo soft!

[@TheRealFaithTalk]

so I will add some personal tips and my personal experience. I see some others shared it is best to leave the rice water out for room temperature for 24 hours which is exactly what I do when using rice water. I also make sure I rinse my rice off first before creating my rice water. After 24 hours I put my rice in a spray bottle or applicator bottle it is a lot easier to use. Another major tip rice water is similar to a protein treatment so I make sure to add my favorite cream moisturizer or (leave in conditioner )and sealing oil (castor oil) after I have sprayed my hair with rice water basically following the (LCO) method. This is to make sure I'm not having a protein overload. Ive been using rice water during my protective styles under my wigs and I wish I could insert pics my hair has grown SOOO much and so thick. I have had this one area that was so stubborn to grow for years and rice water was the only thing that made the hair grow back. I only use the treatment one week out of the month just because I have protein sensitive hair but I recommend it to everyone!!

The thing with the rice water method you have to do it for a good while to see much growth. My routine consisted of deep conditioning either overnight or for 1 hr with a mixture of yogurt, coconut or castor oil and rice water. I would also add rice water to my conditioner. I would cowash and wash my hair once a month for about 6 months which i my hair had grown 3/4 of the length.

[@graceeyindiya9045]

U can either leave it to ferment, for 24 hours or more. But I’m an impatient person so i make my rice water like I’m boiling rice. This is because as it heats up all the nutrient from the rice goes into the water when u boil it which is the same as fermenting just in a lazy way. And it works. I used mine for 4 weeks straight 3 days a week, and this was when i had my faux locs. When i finally took the locs out, girl my hair grew and it was thick. Trust me i was scared doing that because that’s way too much protein, but surprisingly my hair didn’t fall out, normally whenever i take my braids out and comb it out i get shedding here and there but this time? Nothing. The rice water did start to get thick and smell tho so i dilute it with water to prevent that from happening, as for the smell? Peppermint is my best friend. I am giving it a break tho, and only time I’ll deal with rice water is when i have any protective style on my head.

[@graceeyindiya9045]

And in addition to that, i make my own hair growth oil using the Ayurvedic method. It’s just more better for me because that way i know what ingredients I’m putting in my hair and i know it’s no for if harsh chemical or anything. Castor oil, pumpkin seed oil, olive oil, peppermint oil and patience 💯

So I don’t think the rice is for growth I’ve noticed over all it’s good for strengthening purposes. I’ve been using it since about mid Jan. The biggest thing I noticed was less shedding I used to shed a ton and now it’s about dime to nickel size depending on how long it’s been since I detangled. I continue to use this as it helps save me money since I’m not buying protein deep conditioners as much.i think I was able to stretch my Camille rose for two months.

Vanessa Moris protein treatment is meant to strengthen the protein bonds in the hair shaft, while a conditioner is meant to give hair hydration and moisture. Too much protein can cause hair to break, which is why it’s encouraged to use protein treatments occasionally.

[@susankelembeck2866]

Hi I have checked out lots of videos on rice water treatments and I think the mistake you made is by putting your rice water in the fridge to ferment. I put mine in a warm dark place for 3 to 5 days. I only put it in the fridge if I have made too much as the refrigerator slows down / stops the fermenting process. My results were really good I used the treatment to help me through my transition to going natural. My hair was at armpit length, ever 2 weeks I washed my hair trimmed 2/3 ins of my heat damaged hair did the treatment and by the end of the next wash day I had my 2/3 ins back. It gave me the confidence to big chop to shoulder length this summer. I am how using black rice water as a daily leave in conditioner and a rinse on wash day. Getting the moisture balance is tricky but it’s working well my hair is 3/4 ins from armpit which I hope to achieve by next summer. Hope this is helpful. Keep up the good work x 🙏🏽

Hi JessI love watching your videos! Did you shampoo, deep condition and then used the rice water or vice versa? I may have missed that point. Thanks!

[@theresawadehouston1987]

Hey Jess, You get more nutrients from the rice when you boil it. It is a straight up protein treatment not a conditioner. Works best when applied after shampooing. Used to stop breakage and mend split ends. Not necessarily to increase growth. So your new growth won't show a big improvement but your hairstrands will. Think of it like an organic Aphogee Protein Treatment. It is meant to strengthen and heal the hair you have not encourage hair growth. Rice water rinse needs to be followed by a good deep moisturizing conditioner. I put it in a spray bottle (like you did Week 3) so I can spray it on my scalp and all down my hair strands to the ends. That works best for me and is less messy. I do it bi-weekly. I follow TheMestizaMuse on IG. She is a natural hair curl genius. First heard about rice water from her.

[@mellanese]

Thanks for the time and effort in making your video. I was looking for someone with the same or similar grade and length as mines and found you.

@@i.a.3543 Good morning, I used it while I was taking my shower in the morning which means I would wash my hair first, condition it then spray the rice water on it, pin up my hair and finish my shower.

Andrea Steen thank you!

[@loveinatincanclintericka]

Would love to see you try again but with it fermented outside of the fridge. Great video though!

[@Underthepalmsofdeborah]

Yes the frig stops the fermentation process. So proper fermentation is at room temperature. If you measure your hair twisted, that’s the way you always have to measure. Your hair measures a bit longer out of twist. Just some tips.

[@MsKaren-tb1lx]

I fermented my rice for 2 days then used it. The smell made me shower 2x😨😷 I put the rest in the fridge. Does anyone know if it will still be potent in 1.5wk for my next wash day?

[@LilianOkibe]

Great video as always. Your videos are always fun to watch.😍😍😍

[@dancecomplications9572]

When I try it ima put it on once a week because I don’t want my hair to brittle and break By protein overload.

[@selflove9534]

You should check out cyn doll video on rice water

[@Raetalkss]

I like the fact you did not leave it to ferment. Is the fermenting process really needed? I ask this because I cannot with the smell and I think it makes it a long process

[@RosetteByDay]

When y’all late folk come into the theater, keep the noise down, us early folk tryna enjoy our video☹️

[@yakapende449]

What I do is whatever rice water is left I just put it back in the fridge and add more water to the rice water... And some fresh aloe Vera the smell will knock u out (I take it out a night before I use it so it's not cold) but it reduced my hair breakage to 80%

[@paradisegarden1445]

Did the rice water help with the hair color treated hair. And how did u achieve that color. It looks amazing

[@sassys1240]

Great video. This is just an FYI. When you put the rice water in the fridge it stops the fermentation process.

[@afrobelleunlimited]

Do you feel like the hair is thicker

[@leospicegirl]

i use it every 2 weeks and let it sit on my hair for 1-2 hours but i recently used it to wash my hair with shikakai and aritha powder as a shampoo and it’s very soft and shiny

[@NaturalBlackBeautiful]

I love rice water, I've been using it since december 2017. It helps me reduce hair shedding mostly! I now use it to prepoo mixed with hybiscus tea. Instead of spraying warm water on my hair before applying warm oils I spray warm hibiscus rice water and my hair feels extremely soft when shampooing with african black soap

[@bridgettenicole5471]

I tried rice water as a leave-in and I definitely saw growth. I love it

[@kristinad.johnson409]

Where did you get your heating cap from? Btw, I love your hair and the color! It's on fleek!

[@mitchelleubites9288]

Hey Jess do you think you could try onion juice for a month as well?

[@JermaineAuNatural]

From what I have seen it always varies from person to person. The one thing that I did see that was consistent is people that didn’t have the protein issue that their hair was stronger and there was less shedding.

[@JoanAntoinetteAdija]

I have protein sensitive hair and i started using rice water 2 weeks ago. i mix it with conditioner or i deep condition before or after. i don't want to risk protein overload. I'm waiting to see how it turns out. You look amazing though!!! and that hair color is bomb!!!!!

[@morgancarter6538]

When I tried rice water I just kinda poured it on my head and I felt like it wasnt doing anything so I got discouraged ... It makes a lot more sense to just dip it. I'll have to start doing it again.

[@kellyharris2138]

I put mine in a spray bottle

[@zanelemnguni6014]

I pour mine all over my head and it works good

[@JW1283]

I spray my strands and for good measure I pour it on my scalp as well.

[@hopelucie]

I put mine in the fridge but at the bottom and it still fermented 😪 maybe the fridge ain't working but I used a spray bottle 3 times a week and in two weeks I had an inch already. Its amazing

[@lisajohnson5777]

That was very good info. Thanks for sharing all 4 weeks at once.

[@jaelleouapou4578]

Do you all wash it out or does anyone leave it in?

[@kiana9161]

Does anyone know if it's expires ? I made my water a week ago but I unexpectedly got braids I expect to take them out at the end of the month , should I make new water or am I fine ?

[@MonEqueG17]

Glad you finally posted the rice water treatment vid cause i was sure waiting. and thanks for the updated comment cause the comment section had me confused lol. I still want to try this when I take out my passion twist! :)

[@BalanceLifeBabe]

I’m a borderline lazy natural. Should it had been easier with a spray bottle? Would you recommend it?

[@BalanceLifeBabe]

Okay ignore I guess I should have continued watching lol

[@taylonlincoln2381]

Hey Jess Girl!!What day of the week is wash day for you?

[@blackgoddess_06]

So do you shampoo your hair first then condition with rice water. Also after did you moisture your hair. How do you moisture your hair through this because people say it drys out your hair

[@user-qg4td6rg5x]

mines way longer at the back than the front

[@gracefoltzzz2982]

Candice did u get bangs ?

[@celinawilson9440]

It doesn’t ferment In the cold. That’s why we put food in the fridge 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@angeleyes8350]

Jess I am so glad you did this video. I think the rice water actual gives my color treated hair the extra protein it needs to prevent breakage which in turn provides length retention. I am team rice water.

[@TatianaVictoria]

The way you measured your new growth was different that the whole strand. You pulled the strand to give the full length, but the roots measurement was still shrunken I believe lol. I like rice water. I don’t feel like it’s given me a lot of growth either though. I’ll have to try it out for 4 weeks as well!

[@shaquaejackins8491]

As soon as you said I am going to put the water in the spray bottle, I shook my head nodding yeah. Lol. Awesome video tfs💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@sarpongemmanuella6538]

Yay!😍💟 ,the Queen has tried rice water. Ima have to try it too.

[@angelarmstrong9790]

I don't think rice water is for low perosity hair due to the amount of protein which can cause breakage... My experience but aloe once a week and an oil treatment has grown my hair...34c/4a pattern

[@kiki1573]

Rice water left my hair Soooooooo dang dry sis! OMG. I watched a video from Cyn Doll talking about the dangers of using rice water because of the arsenic rice has. You don't have to take it as bible, but its definitely worth looking into. Good luck❤

[@OnlyOneJess]

Kiki's Kurls yea I was super worried about it making my hair hard or dry over having protein overload that’s why it took me so long to try it but after round one and two my hair didn’t feel any different so I went with it. But everyone’s hair is different and I have heard that for a lot of people it made their hair hard :(

[@amoryll36]

Kiki's Kurls I was searching the comments to see if anyone had mentioned Cyn. Yessssss she said it's bad and gave a scientific reason. So for me, it's a definite NO......

[@marcianaanthony1798]

Seal with an oil

[@lakethomas9219]

Jess, Would you ever mix it with a deep conditioner? or a Clay Mask?

[@maviswiggins4912]

Hi Jess, can you tell me what your hair porosity? Please and thank you.

[@genejaytre]

The rice water helps strengthen the hair. Which helps with retention

[@jamilarichardson6393]

White rice has all the nutrients stripped from it. Use brown rice or Jasmine rice for better results

[@JW1283]

I like to use brown rice. I use it as part of my deep conditioning routine and it leaved my hair sooooo super soft.

[@maryachiaa2324]

Sis how are you ?l did the rice water treatment n gess wat I had so much shedding till now still having shedding I don't know what to do to stop the shedding

[@kessiena5852]

I haven't used my rice water for 5 months and as my lazy self, I didn't pour it out, now its pink. Can anyone explain, lol

[@queenquinn8340]

Rice water is not really for growth it helps with length retention. By stopping you from shedding so much. I shed like a retriever getting they spring coat. Rice water really helped me out

[@faith.noelle3888]

Question: whenever I wear my natural hair in a ponytail of any sort it always stinks like literally smells... and I think it may be my hair ties but I’m not sure. Could you please help me out!! Thanks!🥰♥️ AND YOU LOOK GOOD GIRL🔥🔥

Faith. Noelle are you putting it in a ponytail while it’s wet?
