[@bryansl0587]

The flower analogy was great! I have used clarifying shampoos and massage with the pads of my fingers, but I've not considered something like this. Perhaps it's not enough. I'll look for something along these lines. I like the sugar (maybe fine brown sugar) idea, I'm concerned salt would cause micro abrasions. I favor the clay idea the most. It could still be part of the massage portion.

[@CurlyChemistry]

Thanks for sharing! The great thing is we have options, so definitely go with what works best! :-)

The crazy part is I think I did this one time before and I already had the sugar scrub bought from the store not even homemade. However I hadn't tried it in awhile. However It does work. The areas I used it in all felt different in a good way.

[@Tinablackberryrose]

Great video. I didn’t know that sweat can suffocate the scalp I sweat really bad in my head, but on my wash days I do use the ACV method that you recommended. Tyfs 💕💕

Burns? Damn, do you use relaxer?

[@SwiftDreamer]

Love your videos on haircare as a guy. I have a few questions: can your ACV rinse recipe from your Natural Hair Care Wisdom Flash Cards work as a pre poo? If so, can/should it also be used along with coconut oil when pre pooing overnight? Thank you!

[@CurlyChemistry]

I would leave the ACV rinse on for 5-10 min max, not overnight. You can prepoo with coconut oil for 20 min, apply the acv rinse to the scalp before or after your shampoo then condition your hair.

[@simoansays4820]

Hello, TY for this info. How can I find out the ph of my scalp? Do you have any info about effects on scalp caused by "hard water" mineral deposits and is distilled water worth the effort or offer anything beneficial? Thank you

I love watching your videos I feel like I can trust your knowledge and you help me feel better about things I use to do that all of a sudden is “wrong” for curly hair it felt like I just didn’t know anything you made me feel better about using rice water as well but I’ve recently been hearing ACV is not good for our hair it’s like wheeet? Lol thank you for clarifying for us I just bought Aussie moist for the first time in years thanks to your conditioner video

What about rosemary oil on scalp?

Can I use rhassoul clay powder mixed with apple cider vinegar or water to wash my hair every 2- 3 weeks instead of regular shampoo? Also how do you feel about the maximum hydration method?I saw 2 videos that advised against it

[@irama07]

Hello. Big fan here from Mozambique. Tell me, if I am going to use for example apple cider vinegar in the pre-poo, can I use my oils at the same time? Most of my washing days do a pre-poo with oils. Is it ok to mix it?

No natural friends either 😒😔😥 All my life lonely with my curls ( except for youtube lol) love your channel and the way you are and YOUR HAIR SO HEALTHY!!!💌 ACV cannot do!!!(smell lol) sugar yes!

Doctors can be so insensitive about female hair loss, I feel your pain 😥 you may need Iron in your diet. I've started a course, just a normal over the counter one with a high mg content, and Biotin, again high in mg. Dark leafy veg like spinach, kale etc I eat it by the bucket load..... and massage my scalp as often as possible with a small amount of almond oil with a mix in water and rosemary oil. I can honestly say it's working a treat and seeing new hair too 👍🏾😁 x

My magic bullet for my hair is wash once a month. Was washing every week it sycked the life and natural oils out. Same schedule my beautician mom had me on during childhood. My hair was beautiful, long and no effort. Notice a big difference when I switch over. Before had to moisturize every few days now once every 7 days. Can go longer. My scalp never itches. I use rosemary and peppermint oil after I wet it in between washes.

So when are u using ur peppermint oil and rosemary how many times a week? What u mean by when u wet it?

[@hybridinfodesk409]

@@Astromalcolm My issue isn't growth or length retention. It has been consistency. My hair reacts different from everything I put on it. That initially drove me crazy. I can go from 2A to 4A depending upon the hair products. And, humidity don't get me started. It absorbs all moisture from the air and swells with the moisture. It stays soft. In warmer weather only well groomed hairstyles. You guys call them protective but since my hair needs no protecting. It's management for me. We all have different issues.

The ACV in this case is for your scalp, the prepoo is for your hair. Both can be rinsed out together. You can also prepoo first, then do an ACV scalp rinse after your shampoo.

What brand of salicylic acid are you using? I’m definitely interested because my hair is dry no matter what I do.

[@VEXUS920]

You didn’t mention chemical exfoliation like salicylic acid. There a few dandruff shampoos that use it. It’s certainly helped me.

[@christine1962ful]

This is what I'm looking into now , hence why I rewatched this video. I'm worried about micro damage to my strands with the sugar or salt, but already use clays, though nit fir a while. I believe the chemical aids will work at a deeper level without that worry. So fat, I'm looking at The Ordinary and Inkey products to see which one I should try out first.

[@VEXUS920]

@@christine1962ful I would suggest using the acids that are formulated for the scalp. Neutrogena has a good one called T/sal and most pharmacy stores (CVS, Rite Aid, Walgreens, etc.) have dupes that work just as well for it. It helps immensely with dandruff and salicylic acid is an acid that is pretty easy on the skin usually. Go slow but it does cause much irritation.

[@ramoyarichardson5823]

What kind of salt though? I was told salt rotten hair causes it to fall out.
