Pre-Poo Detangler Test: What Happens When I Try Olaplex No. 5?

[@BrittanyMia]

I forgot to mention that I did not use the number three because that’s too expensive to use as a pre-poo treatment on dirty hair, and is more effective on clean hair. In case you were wondering!

[@III-mu4yn]

I would mainly use it for preepoo on the scalp its like a good scalp scrub for dandruff etc

[@vaneshcaa]

Recently I’ve started pre-pooing with a hot oil treatment the night before I wash my hair. I do this because this is the only time I will use oil in my hair during the week. In the morning I shampoo it out, then follow up with no.2 before proceeding with my normal wash day (shampoo again then deep condition). It’s only been a few weeks so far of doing this routine but I’ve found my hair to be more manageable especially when applying no.2. Weirdly enough my wash day is even shorter as well, I can be done within 45 mins.

Love the back to back videos! Ugh, I could watch you do your hair all day lol our hair “type” is so similar. I use african pride aloe & coconut water pre-poo because it has sooooo much slip! Melts away the tangles rather quickly and even begins to define your hair.

[@BrittanyMia]

🥰 glad to hear it! I go back and forth with that pre-poo but I always somehow end up repurchasing it.

HAIR TWIN❤❤❤❤❤ great video!

[@BrittanyMia]

Thank you! 🤗

I actually have an issue with keeping my hair hydrated and I use a coconut oil conditioner to prepoo my hair. My stylist says my hair is shinier and stronger. I have also used the #5 as a prepoo and I also love it. I love Olaplex, but I use the whole line together once in awhile. Sometimes I pair the Olaplex shampoo with a more moisturizing conditioner. The #8 is bae and she will always be around for me. Great video! These last two videos were so relaxing 😌. I hope you're doing well and making strides in your job search ❤.

[@belindamobley3806]

Your hair has grown. Have you ever done a twist out? Would love to see a video on that

[@BrittanyMia]

I haven't done a twist out for quite some time. I'm not a fan of twist outs but i'll keep that in mind!

[@Neesha242]

Im glad you caught your hygral fatigue before it got worse. Some people end up losing elasticity and curls definition because they don’t realize they have hygral fatigue

[@BrittanyMia]

Same! It was frustrating to realize that was what was happening since that can cause a ton of damage, but you live and you learn.

[@juanitarobertson306]

That for sharing and letting us see how much shedding!😁

[@BrittanyMia]

You bet!

[@ChrissysLanguageCorner]

I also want you to know I also come here for the music too lol, your taste is bomb!

[@BrittanyMia]

gaaah thank you I appreciate it.

[@sharonlewis8631]

Yes, I pre-poo with coconut oil and Curlsmith 's bond curl rehab salve.

[@BrittanyMia]

oooo good to know. Thanks for sharing!

[@Afrodite96]

Found my hair twin! Almost makes me miss loose natural hair… almost lol! 🤪

[@BrittanyMia]

I found out I have SebDerm last year and it's been getting worst. So many ingredients feed the yeast. I'm starting to use oil again but MCT oil (Fractionated coconut oil basically) with tea tree oil only for prepoo. Those ingredients don't feed the yeast. All those great shampoos, I pretty have to let go off. Now I'm applying them to hair only and applying my medicated shampoo to my scalp. Amazing video as always. Will you be trying the new innersense I create definition this summer ?

[@JustZaiii]

I prepoo my hair and I use the aloe vera from the African pride line my hair loves that shit so much

[@BrittanyMia]

It works really well but every time I purchase it I end up giving it away. 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@GraceAbounds4ever]

Love your content , currently I prepoo with conditioner but thinking about trying aloe Vera ❤

[@BrittanyMia]

Thanks! Likewise. I think using aloe vera would be great especially as a pre poo scalp treatment.

[@SignedByKimberley]

I currently use onion juice mixed with aloe vera gel as my prepoo treatment 🥰

[@MintNHoney]

Is the Ouidad comb seamless? To answer your question, I recently started using ayurvedic oils and even fresh aloe vera gel from the leaf as a pre-poo because the shampoo I'm using is more clarifying than I like.

[@BrittanyMia]

Yes, the comb is seamless. Thanks for sharing ✨

[@Neesha242]

What shampoo do you use when you prepoo? I try to use ones with sulfates like Quidad moisturizing shampoo or a sulfate free one with olefin sulfonates and cocamidopropyl betaine, & my clarify one

[@BrittanyMia]

I did my Olaplex treatment after this. It's the one I posted yesterday so I used the No. 4 & the No. 4C to clarify. This was my first time pre-pooing in a while so I typically don't, but when I'll need to pre-poo i'll be following it up with either the Oudad one you mentioned or the Olaplex.

[@kimlaoconnor1]

What styling products caused that much flaking in the beginning of the video? Also, how come you don’t pre-poo with Olaplex No. 3 instead since that is its intended?

[@BrittanyMia]

It’s a combo that I haven’t posted yet but it’s coming within the next few weeks. I record videos a couple weeks in advance.

[@kimlaoconnor1]

@@BrittanyMia also, how come you don’t pre-poo with Olaplex No.3?

[@BrittanyMia]

@@kimlaoconnor1 I mentioned in the video that I don’t use the No. 3 because it’s best to use on clean hair. Despite what the directions say, I don’t think it’s useful on dirty hair. 🤗

[@kimlaoconnor1]

@@BrittanyMia Oh! I watched the entire thing, didn’t hear that part. I agree with not doing it on dirty hair. So, I do one wash of a super moisturizing shampoo and then I go in with the No. 3.

[@honeydipallure]

Have you applied to Sephora squad? You’d be a perfect fit

[@BrittanyMia]

I haven’t, but I’m considering. ❤️

[@ohemmaAna]

I used to pre poo every wash day, but since cleansing weekly and sticking to a routine I’ve found it not necessary for me. Exceptions are: 1. My protein bonding treatment from curlsmith(1xmonth), directions are similar to pre-poo process 2. After wearing knotless braids for a month I’ll pre-poo with aloe Vera, there’s no slip like it in my opinion 😍

[@stephaniemiw]

I don't remember the last time I had a protein treatment (or any treatment for that matter 😶) One day I'm going to get this olaplex

[@kimlaoconnor1]

Olaplex isn’t a protein treatment. The only product with a small amount of protein is the shampoo.

[@stephaniemiw]

@@kimlaoconnor1 thanx, babes 👍🏾

[@kimlaoconnor1]

Also, For anyone who’s worried about protein sensitivity, don’t have to worry using Olaplex. It has patented bond building properties that won’t give you protein overload.

[@lindav7158]

That olaplex is on the expensive side for a prepoo. Not used as it was intended. But I am a 3 prepoo girlie---kiehls magic elixir, NLS fenugreek prepoo wash out, than go in with # 3. Given this, there is no way I can criticize your methods. We love our hair and will do what is necessary

[@BrittanyMia]

Thanks for sharing your method ✨
