My TWA Wash Routine | Type 4 Natural Hair

[@maddiejay5108]

Do you deep condition your hair under a dryer once a week too?

[@olivechels]

i don't. right now i'm using a heat cap to deep condition that i didn't start using til after this video but i do like it. i don't have a hooded dryer anymore but i would use it proly a couple times a month if i had one

[@pamelataylor5425]

would love for you to subscribe to my channel

[@rylandbrayden5270]

I guess Im randomly asking but does someone know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly lost my password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me!

[@franciscoryker4669]

@Ryland Brayden instablaster ;)

[@rylandbrayden5270]

@Francisco Ryker thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm trying it out atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@nethermae5340]

I do the same routine and my hair is about your length and thriving. Simple routine quick and to the point.

[@olivechels]

love it!

[@CreolePearls_]

I remember watching your videos during my early natural hair journey days 💛 my hair is much looser now but I always been type 4. Time flies, hope all is well 🫶🏽

[@doThatGWalk]

Lol, Don't come for me! The drama was the commerical & them not properly apologizing or accepting the fault. It was mainly them using black women to become popular but then slap them in the face for not promoting their beauty in a hair commerical about "hair hate"

[@olivechels]

SMH

[@Peinaj]

I feel like I have the same exact type of hair as you. You are the first person that described it the most accurate thin, dense, low porosity. Thank you for that!

[@olivechels]

yayyyy thank you! i'm so glad you got something out of the video & i appreciate you watching

[@nyrobip4830]

I need a whole lesson on how to take care of my hair cause I don’t know anything about it 😭

[@khadijaaah._5315]

Sameeee

[@diamondandy1444]

saaamme 🤧

[@arfbark]

To be honest

[@priyeeshofonie9615]

Ikr

[@neeshapitts972]

smileynybs me either 😩

[@lucyw.mcmellan7274]

Very informative, especially about the warm water rinse. Explanation of the LCO method was also an eye-opener for me. Thank you. P.S. your hair looks beautiful!

[@Kealasadiva42]

Thank god finally somebody with my hair length and texture😫. I was about to cry

[@britjj5126]

4:46 😍 That's the money shot! Just gorgeous! I love seeing 4c hair texture shots. Our hair is truly beautiful. New subbie here.

[@olivechels]

thank you!!

[@angerleanhammond1143]

Today is June 30th, 2022 and your hair turned out really pretty, nice and curly. I have been using Cantu products since my hair started growing back for the second time from having breast cancer twice and I use Palmers hair and scalp oil with Biotin and vitamin E and olive oil and castor oil and carrot oil and my hair is growing back it's down to my ear lobe now.

[@khatarried2522]

Finally! I found someone whose hair looks exactly like mine after wash day, im usually so lost lol

[@olivechels]

amazinggg

[@lisaagate921]

I laughed when you said don't come for me for using shea moisture 😂😂

[@olivechels]

lol had to give a disclaimer

[@naturallynewtothegame3891]

I’m new to the natural community, did my big chop in Feb 22, strayed from the relaxer side 😉 I cut mine all even, I didn’t want different lengths either, great video, I need that book. New subscriber 👍🏽

[@Luvliaa]

Welcome to the natural hair community♥️

[@jackie6189]

Love this video by far the simplest, most clear cut video on a wash day routine!!!!

[@olivechels]

yay! thank you!

[@avakinmagisty8901]

I have a mix of 4b and 4c hair it’s stubborn 😪😂

[@BlackBeautyKaray]

[@JVIOLAAC]

Finally I have found the way I want to take care of my hair. I have 4 C (D) type hair so I hope your method works. Your hair looks fantastic.

[@lailahfofana3772]

*instantly subscribes * I love your videos! I recently did the big chop on my 4c hair and had NO idea how to care for my hair in its natural state. All your videos are so helpful, informative, and fun to watch! My main goal is to keep it healthy and strong so I'm super happy I stumbled across your channel! Thank you for taking the time to post all these amazing tutorials and tips! *side note you're so beautiful!

[@olivechels]

thank you so much!!!

[@taraquinch1256]

Wow, I've finally found someone with hair like mine. You may want to buy a steamer or deep condition under a hooded dryer. It really is essential to low porosity hair. Loved your video btw. Imma subscribe.😄

[@olivechels]

my hooded dryer is not with me at the moment lol but i do use that from time to time! i agree it works well! thank you!

[@خلفالرويلي-ط4ب]

Tara Quinch -r

[@jezzinewton364]

Wow.. she actually made me feel like my hair journey is gonna be ok💆🏾‍♀️💁🏾‍♀️... I just have to focus on healthy hair than hair because soon as you know it.. it'll be growing and be healthy🌱🌿🌾🌻... thanks girl 😊😋♥️

[@olivechels]

thank youuu

[@jezzinewton364]

Your welcome..♥️💁🏾‍♀️💆🏾‍♀️👌

[@shanquitasherrod3464]

I still use shae moisture products too

[@bplummer1994]

Shanquita Sherrod me too lol

[@eyesonliyah]

Shanquita Sherrod right lol 💀

[@gqcci6221]

Shanquita Sherrod I can't live without there conditioner... I'm sorry😭

[@lifeasassi6040]

What happened to sheamoisture?

[@Tash_-en6uo]

I still have the curl enhancing smoothie but after it's finished I'm done with them

[@justice_symone]

I gotta try that detangling brush, it looks like it does a good job for our type 4 hair 😍🙌🏽

[@olivechels]

girrrrl i have one that's better that i got from the beauty supply store for like $1-2 dollars. will be making a video comparing them (:

[@east32nd]

It’s amazing I use it on my daughters hair and she is thick 4c hair type. It’s dope 💯💯👌🏽👌🏽💯

[@lilyraimey3499]

Justice Symone PUH-LEASE be cautious of the Tangle Teezer. It seems too good to be tru because it is.

[@rosemary7346]

Lily Raimey I agree

[@JuggerGirl001]

I do water, oil, then leave in conditioner when ever my hair is dry.

[@tyrapayne4942]

You're like the only hair vlogger with I can relate to length wise. Finally

[@olivechels]

yay! i'm so glad we can relate

[@CharCharJars]

I didn't know what to do when I started my hair journey in 2009. Thank you for sharing, I use Shea moisture and Cantu as well, just was confused about the LCO method. Thank you for explaining why and how you use this method. I will be trying this soon.

[@olivechels]

thank you so much for watching & i'm glad i could help

[@saundrabusby9906]

Where have you been all my youtube natural twa video watching life? lol. 4b, 4c, fine, low porosity, lco method. Thanks for being you.

[@olivechels]

thank youuuu

[@MakaelaCGood]

I learned something new about the warm water rinse instead of the cold water to avoid closing the cuticle I always used cold water :D

[@olivechels]

yay!! glad it helped. thanks for watching!

[@reinanathania7245]

just found you. I swore I was the only one who uses that deep conditioner 😭 it works perfectly for me and I cover my hair with a cap and blow dry it ( cause I don’t have a hooded dryer ).

[@aprilvereen5645]

I like you hair routine. For a detangle comb try a pic. Also i think a nice leave in is the Mizani 25 in 1. It comes in a cream and a spray.

[@britblake852]

Try the argan oil Cantu leave in conditioner. It works great. Its thicker. Which I like.

[@olivechels]

thank you! my hair loves argan oil!

[@coochieman5570]

Shea moisture is still the goat

[@olivechels]

lol the products i do use, i love

[@allurawiggins3823]

Wow finally someone with my hair texture!!!! Like I cut my hair and was so discouraged because NO ONE had hair like mine ❤️

[@notherelol-b2j]

Allura Wiggins literally same! I cut my hair AGAIN yesterday I did it 3 years ago but I damaged it AGAIN I could not find a KZbinr for anything in the WORLD who had the same hair texture as me I would always give up but we have the EXACT same and I couldn’t be more grateful ❤️💕!

[@Kiyaboo214]

First of all, you're BEAUTIFUL! ☺ Great video. Very informative. Thanks girl! God bless you.

[@jaynatiairra7669]

Omg thank you so much we have the exact same hair and problems thank you so much finally I found someone who can relate.

[@olivechels]

yay!

[@soundreign2319]

Girl your curls were already popping with life before your hair hit the water... gorgeous😍😍

[@olivechels]

lol thank you annie!

[@iAmAuroraRosa]

Your hair type looks exactly the same as mine and all the things you explained about your hair strands being thin and not absorbing moisture too well describes my hair exactly so I will definitely be following this routine 👌🏽 so helpful. Thank you

[@olivechels]

thank you!1

[@Xycopixie]

Yay! You are my hair twin! We have the same hair cut too. I learned early that I can't use heavy stuff in my hair. I use bentonite clay and ACV to clarify my hair, but I use the same LOC products. Great video!

[@olivechels]

thank youu!!

[@Jayariee]

I've been hooking up people on mega growth leave in conditioner . I hate the silicone feeling but it does amazing for my hair. I'll try the deep conditioner next

[@olivechels]

right!! & it's cheap!

[@خلفالرويلي-ط4ب]

Jayarie -o.k.

[@ALMONDXMILK]

OMGGG WE HAVE THE SAME EXACT HAIR TYPE AND THICKNESS!!! I’ve been contemplating on doing another big chop without a tapered cut and your hair is the perfect example!

[@olivechels]

yay so glad we can relate!!

[@qtee2518]

Love your cut! You're absolutely right, its different but classy. My hair is actually about the same length as yours as well as same texture. Super excited to see more videos from you😄

[@olivechels]

(: yay! thanks so much

[@bplummer1994]

Finally found someone with the same hair type as me 🤗 I'm transitioning at the moment and dealing with two different hair types is rough.. I'm glad I clicked on your video .. and don't worry I still use shea moisture products as well 😩😂 I just used their raw shea butter line to wash my hair today.. it works good for my hair so 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@robertahiggins9857]

Your hair isnt kinky at all The longer your hair gets the more those gorgeous curls will form... textures can change during growth...u are a lovely 4a or maybe 3 !! Just wait and youll see !!💛 Subscribed !

[@olivechels]

thank you girl! i have no idea. lol i worry more about the porosity than anything

[@d1orfairy]

Yes, finally someone with my hair type. You have a new subscriber

[@olivechels]

thank you!

[@godsprecious6884]

I liked your video. It was my first time viewing it. I use Shea Moisture. They aren’t doing anything different from a lot of other major companies which have been using the same strategy for years.

[@808sndHeartAke]

Ain’t nobody got time to be beefing with Shea Moisture.. lol I love that stuff, they’ll be okay! Love your hair texture 🖤

[@olivechels]

thank you markel!

[@prettygurlcollins8390]

Thank You for showing us how to moisturize hair. I think I have the same type of hair you have, I've recently cut my hair about a month and a half ago and I REALLY needed some tips on how to take care of it. My hair really don't hold in moisture and most of the time it looks so dry even after washing it. Hopefully I get to watch more videos from you soon :-) Definitely will be a new subscriber

[@olivechels]

blessings on your journey lovely!

[@weirdlilmama]

The Shea moisture Manuka is AMAZING on my hair

[@msve3730]

I have TwA like 1/2 inch long . Why does it keep shedding or falling out ???

[@CassieCas0106]

I just cut my hair 2 days ago. I used this wash routine! It was helpful because I have some of these similar products.

[@devonnamonaehicks4288]

Im glad i found your channel my hair is the same way ive been natural for almost a year i did a big chop August of 2016 and i still dont know what helps my hair keep moisturize and it's frustrating becuase it get so dry and the breakage is like everyday...are there any tips you can give me? I love the video

[@olivechels]

keep your scalp clean. deep condition with heat & always seal in your moisture. try protective styles! thanks so much for the love

[@Yo_Vonny]

Yeah I had the same feelings towards that conditioner but its honestly the only thing I use now

[@olivechels]

i'm looking for a new one now. the new cantu leave in formula has isopropyl alcohol

[@E042588]

I like the education/ explanations you share with us. Your hair is a lot like mine. I'm so happy to have your vids to help me along the way. Thanks! I'll continue to follow you.

[@olivechels]

thanks so much! means a lot that i'm being helpful (:

[@ceeneycarey-butcher1964]

I looooove everything about your video: your sparkling personality and sunny smiles; your clear and easy to follow demonstrations and explanations; oh heck, I love it all!!. I will continue to follow you. Blessings from me in Freeport, Bahamas.

[@Wolfhailstorm]

Beautiful! I big chopped today (filmed it too and I'm so happy with it) so I'm watching so many wash routines and videos to get even more inspired haha

[@olivechels]

thank you so much! blessings on your hair journey!!

[@Wolfhailstorm]

olive chels You're very welcome and thank you too! Hope your journey is going well!

[@divinedenaeskin]

New subscriber! My hair is exactly like yours to the T! Your the first person I have seen on KZbin with similar hair. It’s thick but strands are thin. My hair is super thick in the middle though. It looks like yours wet and dry. More defined curls while wet. I’m excited to watch your videos

[@divinedenaeskin]

Actually I’m 4a and 4c in some parts of my hair

[@olivechels]

yay!!! i'm so happy we can relate (: i definitely have a lot of different textures too & mine is thickest in the middle too. but i think mine is generally 4b overall with some other 4 types scattered in

[@erikad2195]

I have a mixture of different textures in my hair but I think it is mainly 4a. I was wondering if you had any tips on how to get out of the twa phase?

[@anonyme3838]

I'm SO HAPPY WE HAVE THE SAME hair texture, dry and wet And I start my hair journée soon !! very excited !😇

[@anonyme3838]

Update 9 month later... nothing change. And I hate my hair.

[@taneikatigner8762]

I liked your video. I did a mini chop yesterday so this is all new to me as i still have a little bit of relaxer on my ends

[@olivechels]

blessings on your journey!!

[@MissJules126]

Im new to the natural hair routine ......I have extremely dry and damages and im using the 100% Shea butter mixed with the Cantu leave in conditioner...do you have any advice on it?

[@olivechels]

my hair is very fine so something like shea butter would weigh my hair down, i'd use something like a whipped shea butter for a lighter texure, but if it works for you then i say press on! (:

[@ayannaprice6888]

Beautiful hair 😍. I got my sides shaved & I'm working on growing it back , coming in good😚

[@mariadesir4569]

Omg. First time I've heard of this book. I will check it out. Thanks girl!

[@40cinamon]

did you make your own coils after you conditioned your hair i love the way it coiled.

[@olivechels]

i did! thank you

[@emmilywoods5781]

I just ran into this deep conditioner. Excited to try it. Thanks for the video.

[@olivechels]

thank you for watching!

[@Abiandfamilyy]

Love your routine

[@tadikapayapundo3966]

Hey ,love your video but just a friendly note to close the tap when you not using it. Not only do you save money but you save lots of water

[@journeytonatural5525]

Hair twin. Same length and everything. Love your channel so helpful ❤❤

[@olivechels]

thank you so much for watching!!

[@des1013]

Finally someone with the exact same hair as me . Length and all😩

[@mialove826]

It’s been so hard for me to find hair products that work for African American hair , I’ve been trying to figure out what I should get for my big chop and recommendations? Or help with the process?

[@olivechels]

the products i used in this video i love. except the leave-in, i now use a different leave-in by the same brand but you should definitely check out my other videos for help!

[@lonbell2023]

It was very helpful for me I’m trying to get my hair back in good shape thanks

[@jayy.nicolle1]

You should keep a spray bottle on hand while styling.. keeping it damp not wet but damp... products perform better while the hair is damp

[@kaia7768]

Ok so I rencentl found out that Cantu leave in conditioner has added rubbing alcohol as an ingredient. And it has really left my hair super dry. Has anyone else noticed anything bad from the product?

[@deef3431]

I’m so confused because when I was looking up the LCO method, it says that the L is for liquid ... so is it for liquid or leave in ? 🤔

[@olivechels]

it is liquid. i made a mistake but it really just means anything with water as the first ingredient so i use a leave in

[@Hotkakez101]

I just cut my hair because I had a funny shape so I had to do too much manipulation to get a decent look so I'm right around the same length as you & I love how easy it is. Now I'm like 🤔 I really like this length.

[@olivechels]

yeah i'm getting more used to it now and liking it (:

[@lailahfofana3772]

How often do you use the LCO method? Do you only do it after you wash your hair or daily?

[@olivechels]

just after i wash my hair or if i restyle

[@Mimi-qn1eh]

The video I’ve been searching for!!!!💞🤪

[@AmayaMaya4l]

[@alusaesther5304]

[@olivechels]

i have never used the cantu curling cream. i usually use ecostyler w/ argan oil

[@alusaesther5304]

olive chels thanks ,which one to b3 exact coz i see different lids ;red,yellow,green etc and do you have to moisturize your hair with water every day before using it?

[@zonniquepullins9431]

What's wrong with using Shea moisture ? I'm super loss lol

[@koixoxo]

zonnique pullins a while ago they made an ad that got people mad bc white and mixed women were in it talking about their hair struggles and no black women were in it.

[@msmarisadenise]

[@delwananorth7977]

[@olivechels]

[@ninahunter2957]
