#LowPorosity #MoistureOverload #ProteinTreatment
Hey guys so this video was NOT planned what so ever and I am so happy i filmed it. The message for today is for my Low Porosity peeps to STOP NEGLECTING PROTEIN. This hit me real hard and I cried a bit frfr. My hair was in a state it had never been before but knowledge is POWER. No this is not heat damage this is what protein deficiency looks like. yes Moisture is great but you must find a balance. Not to dry not too soft but you must know YOUR hair. Looks like you got a front row seat to this disaster. Hope you enjoy and learn something.

[@FinallyAmber]

Chiiii... I done heard about that moisture overload! Either it's never happened to me because I'm down to FLO low porosity 😂 or I just never notice but EVERY time I go to give away my Aphogee products because I think I'll never need them, something tells me to just "keep them in the back" 😂 Them thangs is NOT cheap just like you said lol

I ain’t giving it away ever again 🙅🏾‍♀️ lol

[@dlilwon]

Tbh anything with protein stops it for me. This happened to me just two weeks ago. I went straight for anything i had with protein to stop the spongy feel. Never leave deep conditioner overnight because that is exactly what i did. Henna treatment or rice water should work too.

[@dlilwon]

Kimberly Cherrell i am also very low Po, but when you have ‘hygral fatigue’ i believe its called not sure, but this is the one scenario your hair will instantly respond to protein.

[@prissNcurlss]

Moisture overload is REAL and exactly why I DON'T SLEEP IN CONDITIONER any longer. I'm low porosity and while I don't have to do protein treatments often, there are times when they are needed. LISTEN TO YOUR HAIR GIRLS, IT TALKS #trust

[@bbappzz98]

I did it the first time i deep conditioned with heat because i needed it but the next time i tried, i didn't get to an hour because my hair felt too wet. I think now i'll only ever do it in the shower during wash day and rinse out at the last second in my shower. But true point!

[@nicolep4548]

How do u know when u need it?

[@prissNcurlss]

Nicole P One of the biggest ways you’ll know is just what Kim describes in her vid-how her hair felt. Anytime your hair is too soft, feels gummy or mushy, isn’t holding styles well-a combination of all the above and then some, all are ways to know when its time to do a protein treatment. And if you’re unsure and want to dry a treatment not as strong as the Aphogee 2 Step, they do have a Curlific line also. Hope that helps:)

[@catherinebutler3003]

Long winded comment: I'm happy that you got your hair back. Hair does not need overnight treatments of any kind. I fell asleep with a moisture and protein balanced deep treatment in my hair overnight and it stretched my curls. Loss cause; I thank God that my hair grows a little faster than average. Once, I left conditioner in my hair overnight which softened my hair too much, I corrected with protein as you. We (I'm included) are doing so much with the hair today, so many products. My generation born in the early 60's, we used regular shampoo & conditioner in our hair. We didn't use leave in products, no deep moisturizing or protein treatments. We moisturized using water and grease only. We didn't experience the problems that folks are experiencing in this generation. We followed directions on the products and never had moisture overload. We had a head full of healthy and moisturized hair, curls never changed, no single strand knots because hair was always in stretched state. We didn't know we could wear our hair down in its natural curly state, that's probably why we didn't have knots. I finally started getting my hair pressed at 12 years of age. My mom used Dax pressing grease only. Pressing comb on fresh washed hair only, but not every wash session. We never had heat damage. Curls came right back as soon as water touched it. Then at the age of 18 I got my 1st relaxer, that's when we started using deep moisturizing and protein treatments, it was necessary after changing the structure of the hair. We have to really think about what is and how much of products is needed. Something to think about.

[@BklynBabe]

If we didn't have all these problems and or hair was so perfect, then why were we using relaxers, hot combs, jheri curls, weaves, wigs, braids, and all these other things to hide our natural hair? 🤔

[@catherinebutler3003]

@@BklynBabe Thanks for the comment. It's not about perfect hair, the only perfection is in heaven my dear. I was just pointing out that as a natural myself that the way we took care of our hair back in the day, we didn't experience heat damage, moisture overload, single strand knots, or dry hair, using minimal products and using them as stated on the package. And if someone back then did experience these issues they weren't taking care of their hair. Whether your hair is natural or chemically altered, it doesn't take a whole lot of products or over using products too take care of hair. Less is more.

@@catherinebutler3003 less isn't always more just like my sis saying quality over quantity (isnt always true) and like the first commentersaid "if our hair was so well off before, why were we always hiding it or altering it with relaxers, straightening combs and weaves".... the extra moisture, the deep conditioning, and PROPERLY DETANGLING ON WET HAIR ( something no one knew of and some people still don't know 🤦🏾‍♀️) is what's making our hair beautiful to the point where people with naturally straight hair are craving the natural look and not the other way around.... literally that time that you're talkin about, the only detangling anyone knew of was using a pick on dry hair to make an afro.... that hair wasn't healthy, and long hair does not equal health btw..

[@Leah.MonetW]

I didn’t even realize over moisturizing was a thing , I’m low porosity as well but at least I know what to do if I ever need to face the protein monster, great video as usual . 💕

[@KI-sg9ky]

I did the curlific texture treatment because I thought this one would be too strong (my hair isn’t damaged) and my hair was so bad it was dry and stringy, so I started adding just a little of it to my dc and I add honey that’s how I do it on my low porosity virgin hair twice or three times a year, some times just once.

[@KimberlyCherrell]

Yes you def DONT want to overdo it at all. Just like once or twice a year

[@haircules7420]

Stop playing, you know heat styling even if you don't get damage it still loosens the curl pattern slightly, and if it's not the heat itself then it's the products the stylist used in your hair as well

[@QueenVonti]

Missesunderstood exactly! what I was thinking, I flat iron my hair at safe temperature and my curl over time my curls have slightly loosed too, moisture over load I think Not....light heat damage frfr🧐🧐

[@QueenVonti]

She doesn’t want to blame the stylist because they are friends 🧐🧐🧐🤨

[@aqueminiqueen7]

She doesn't have heat damage, don't u 👀 her curls r back & healthy ?!? Geez SMH 🤦‍♀️

[@QueenVonti]

Aquarian Goddess certain part of her hair looks loose TO ME watch her older video from last two months, and she flat iron her hair about 6months ago, this plus the last flat iron cause a little damage it not that bad so relax

[@MonaMona-fy5wk]

Lmao of course you guy would blame heat. It's not the first time she applied heat to her hair.

[@Blacknatural08]

Moisture overload ain't no joke girl. A protein treatment will always balance out your hair. The only time protein is not the answer is when you have too much protein in your hair and then moisture is the answer to balancing your hair. I use protein every two weeks because i use a lot of moisturizing products in my hair.

[@nikky6]

Also if you want a more inexpensive option try the rice water rinse and if you let it sit for more then a day use peppermint oil or whatever essential oil you like to mask the smell and let it sit for 10-20 mins in your hair before or after you shampoo. I used as a pre-poo so far and it does help strengthen the hair.

[@ShadowStarlight]

I use Africa's best hair mayonnaise for my protien. A pretty good product. It bring bounce and life back to my hair. Idk what happened with my hair. I was only five months post bald. Mine was too soft and breaking easy. Also couldn't hold a style at all. I wasn't deep conditioning at all. Maybe protien lack. I don't understand that either. I was using gels with protien in it everyweek.

[@jaellerenee1046]

I needed this video...I've been trying to figure out what was wrong with my hair for the LONGEST. My hair used to be dense and now it is super airy and light....I now realized that could be due to moisture overload and lack of protein...thank you for sharing! I need my hair back ASAP

[@lailahwinney2054]

what did u do?

[@naturalhairchickonabudgett849]

You know you can incorporate protein in what you eat and have amazing results on a regular basis which is something we should do anyways.. but I’m like a sponge 🧽 I soak up all information on a just because. I don’t care what anyone says using ammonia in hair dyes and bleaching our hair as well as excessive heat.. does changes to our natural curl pattern. I know because I’ve bleached my hair blonde and over time my what use to be Kinky coils that wearing my Afro was effortless. My hair became limp and I lost my natural curl pattern. After 11 months Natural had to big chop in order to get my Kinky coils back rite which I love to wear my Afro from time to time😉😉 I have not did a protein treatment yet but did use apogee when relax and love it back then but I eat plenty of protein daily so I’m good 💕👍🏾

[@rhondadenis3469]

I rotate my moisture and protein deep conditioner week to week. It really is clutch. I’m also low porosity also. And I no longer co-wash I just always pre poo. It has been a game changer for me.

[@MitchkaLeon]

wow am impressed your hair came back to life!! Glad you figured it out so i know what to do if it ever happens😀

[@BrittanyChere]

So glad you were able to figure out what your hair needed. This happened to me a few months ago. Used that aPHogee treatment and BAM! Curls were byke to normal. Adding protein treatments to my hair regimen every 3-4 months from here on out 🙌🏾

[@pinkbutterfly213]

I’m going through this right now with my hair. I was about to cut it off but I got led to this video.

[@youloveiyanna]

Why am I just now seeings this?🥺 I thought my hair was damaged and botched it 😩 I needed thissssss!!!

[@NunyaBness]

I just have some products in rotation with protein in them so I don’t have to do a protein treatment. I did it one time before putting in braids and I don’t want to do it again. It’s just too much work as I don’t have a hooded dryer and I had to stand there and dry my hair with a blow dryer. 😒 The coconut and hibiscus by Shea moisture has protein so I use it occasionally. I also love the Miele Organics Babassu and Mint deep conditioner. It smells so good and the smell stayed in my hair for days after. I didn’t mind because I love it. 🥰

[@Gr8ful11]

I’m going to Sally’s after my last class. My hair is behaving like this now. Thanks Kim.

[@shereeseblackman7871]

Kim! Boo!! So sorry you were freaking out! Thank Jesus for Jae :) I'm a rice water girl myself. I'm low porosity too, but every now and then I do a four times a month rice water and then take a break for a month.

[@bowwowluv23]

"Which you should do before you leave a comment" 😂😂 she went there

[@erikaharrington1048]

This was literally me 2 weeks ago. My hair was extremely soft and I didn’t know why. I just knew this was weird af and I haven’t did a protein treatment in years. Thanks Kim. I’m going to do a protein treatment tomorrow.

[@Ikea9292101]

Me as you have similar curls mine are just a little tighter and we both are low porosity. I straighten my hair about twice a year and every time I go back to curly my curls look a little different like weird. I noticed it takes time for the curls to bounce back to 100%. For me it’s typically 2 weeks. Cause I only wash once a week. So after those two washes and that time in between my curls are 100%. No damage no nothing. I just think sometimes it takes time for the curls to bounce back

[@maine527]

DYING😂😹😂😂😂😂😹🤣🤣 there is a cartoon called Steven Universe and their is a character named Garnet....your hair once the protein stuff dried 👏🏾had👏🏾me👏🏾on👏🏾the👏🏾floor rollin but it looked good after

[@tamiyajackson3147]

I’ve actually deep conditioned over night several times but I’ve never experienced my hair being too soft. My hair loves over night deep condition. ❤️ glad you got your hair back where you wanted it

[@pepperrannie5874]

This happened to me before. I was so protein deficient that I went from low porosity to high porosity super fast. A protein treatment and adding in a protein deep conditioner every other wash got me right back on track. Glad you figured it out!

[@KimberlyCherrell]

YES!!! I literally felt like I didnt have much hair smh... Glad i learned

[@erinvandalayyy7507]

@@KimberlyCherrell Hi hun .. I hope you will get a chance to answer this, I think I'm dealing with this... did your hair suddenly feel weightless? I usually have very thick, heavy hair and right now it's feeling weightless, soft, mushy and it makes it feel like a third of the thickness it usually feels. Also, when I get it wet it feels like it sucks up a ton of water.

[@kielanalexaa]

the very back of my hair curls & the front but the middle.......NOTHING AT ALL. My hair was permed from around 4th grade to 7th. In 7th grade, I stopped perming and cut a little bit of it off & started transitioning. I’m in 11th grade now and the middle of my hair hasn’t curled since before perming it. I need help

[@justmee87788]

For protein I just use eggs, Mayo and I'll put avocado and aloe vera and maybe a banana and my hair oh and some type of oil . Don't come for me I just won't buy 25 to $9 of product when I got protein in my refrigerator. But I love your hair And videos boo❤️❤️❤️😘

[@TwiggyCCH]

Girl...you saved me bc I didnt even know what that was until I watch you. I am new to the game & my daughter is all natural as well. I trim her hair thinking it was dead ends. My hair was doing the same way. I stay away from protein, I do it once in a blue moon. Now, I am going to Sally's for a protein treatments and masks. Thank you!!!

[@KimberlyCherrell]

You’re welcome!!! I completely understand bc i almost cut mine but i decided to try first and thank goodness I did. I hope it works out for you. Remember it will take time

[@Themartianempress]

Which deep conditioner did you use to make your hair so soft? Ik it didn’t go well for you but my high porosity ass needs it lol

[@charheaven8909]

My daughter’s hair is soft (10years old) would she also need this protein treatment every 6-8 weeks? We r currently using the low porosity line for shea moisture. Haven’t straightened her hair or used any hot tools since Spring. We deep condition once a week. I can’t even get my daughter’s hair to look like urs straight out of the shower.

[@ImaniGabrielle]

Going through this now!! I colored my hair, and a few weeks later it's super soft but DRY! This helps so much

[@DianaVanessaful]

I’m low porosity too and i use a protein once in a month, i use ors hair mayo that is a low/medium protein treatment

[@Anap00h]

Thank you for not speeding this process up

[@arianablondie5836]

Aphogee is $25 now? Girl it use to be so cheap

[@KimberlyCherrell]

lol when fren? it was always expensive for me

[@HealyMeans]

Thanks for this video. Your hair looks great...and you look happy :0) Last month, I committed to doing a protein treatment once a month. In just two months, using the Aphogee 2-step treatment, I have seen waaay less shedding, stronger hair and less split ends/single strand knots. I'm not 100% sure about my porosity (low per the hair in water test about 2 years ago), density and all that, but I know Aphogee works for me! After next month, I'll use a lighter/milder product and then, maybe every 3 months use Aphogee - gotta see how my hair feels/responds.

[@brighteyes6041]

I always lean to the pros about protein usage in hair. L'anza provided this response (taken from www.haarshop.nl/en/blog/2018-01-keratin-shampoo/ )

[@Insanitynation1]

Okay these curls are poppin 😍😍😍😍I love how the protein made them nice and bouncy and so pretty I’m not sure about my porosity in my hair I would have to check but i will be trying out the protein treatment

[@KimberlyCherrell]

Yes it made them look sooooo good! I am still shook

[@tashaa.9068]

The way you sat the spray bottle down in annoyance.. I felt that 😭😭😭

[@2glamgal]

Try only leaving your deep conditioner in for the allotted time they say on the bottle. Overdoing it will result in moisture overload. Especially if done frequently. It’s just damaging your hair. I mean this with no shade and the utmost respect ✊🏽

[@KimberlyCherrell]

Lol watch a few more videos boo... i know that i was just being lazy since I’m human or whatever

[@kiml1226]

See this is why you're my favorite natural hair KZbinr. Because you show us the mistakes we can make and take us through it. Unlike a lot of KZbinrs who only show us the goodness of their hair routine. And never the bad things that can happen.

[@sashadonyae]

so after i use protein can i follow up behind that with a moisturizer deep treatment masque?

[@kirstenvanrensburg811]

I'm literally in the same boat I don't know what to do and these products are not available in South Africa

[@ChelsNicole]

I’m low porosity and my hair loves protein I usually do a deep conditioner with a protein in it abt twice a month

[@MrsJoliesEaux]

What is the name of the "most moisturizing conditioner of all time" that you slept in?

[@pauligarcia396]

Lmaooo ur hilarious

[@keilamedinamiller9728]

Would rice water (like a protein treatment) do the same thing?

[@feethecurlygirl6341]

I’m glad that you were able to restore your back to how it’s supposed to feel. My stylist gave me a protein treatment almost 5 months ago. She said that me using products that contained protein was a good thing. Your video does have me thinking I should schedule another treatment though.

[@janaiahlenay2803]

Bruh the smallest bit of protein fucks up my hair. I have low porosity

[@hiyori2846]

I’m type 4 low porosity, is it okay if I cow ash daily but add this protein treatment to my routine ?

[@NerdyChef99]

I experienced moisture overload a few years ago and I did the protein treatment that you did and it worked. I have made sure since then to have deep conditioners with protein to keep the balance.

[@napturalsfinest]

What deep conditioner did you use? You probably mentioned it but I think I missed it.

[@naimairfan5738]

According to test I have low porosity hair. And my hair likes protein in moderation.

[@tatystopics7195]

What product did you use when you deep conditioned overnight? I’m looking for a really moisturizing deep conditioner.

[@Itsthejaylarae]

Lol you act like such a Leo I love it. As a Leo myself, every time I find out someone else is a Leo I'm just like it all makes sense now lmao

Great video 👍, can you tell me who did the music in your video please? 😊
