[@LvlyTunesNFlixx]

in all your videos i see that beautiful smile thats shows that you are a positive person and you dont have time for junk

[@caroletaylor894]

I love your energy and you are a very pretty! Keep up the great work to help women with their hair issues.

[@shalenadiva]

I'm so glad you appreciated this video. I love my avocado prepoo. You'll be amazed by how your hair feels when you do a prepoo. Have fun with it and experiment!

[@Traci.W]

your pretty and so is your hair..please ignore the rude people with no lives or manners:) I use the same pre poo!! yaaaa

[@shalenadiva]

Mia Snugs Awesome!!! Thanks!!! YOU ROCK!!!

[@shalenadiva]

Mia Snugs TY!!! I appreciate you.

[@NellCherizar]

Do you have an alternative for avocado? I am allergic to it.

[@yasmine5105]

Shalenadive, I can't believe that you have 88 thumbs down. This is going to be helpful to me and my little girl. You encourage me so much. I have had my hair natural since around 2009-2010. I even grew my hair out past my rib cage but I didn't do anything to my hair and it looked a hot mess lol. I want to take it very seriously now. I want my little girls hair to grow as long as she want's it to grow out naturally,that is. Her dad put a relaxer on hair against my wish and then another one and finally the stepmunster put a keratin treatment on her head with out okaying it with me. I had no choice but to have it relaxed this year per the stylist and also due to middle school peer pressures. She is now twelve years old. I really want her to have healthy,longer hair this 2017. Thanks for sharing and thanks for caring.

[@shalenadiva]

Hey!!! I pray that you continue to learn how to love your hair and show your daughter how to by leading by example. She's still young. Let her experiment. As she grows into a young lady and finds herself, she will ultimately define what beauty means for herself and embrace it. Support her along the way. GREAT JOB, MOM!!!

[@yasmine5105]

shalenadiva Thank you so much! I really appreciate you for responding and your advice and all that you do. This means so much to me. I will share this with my daughter too. You're amazing. And I loved you on the Harry show,please keep doing what you're doing. You encourage and inspire us to do better in our lives.

@TheMyssT, my next video will be about choosing a great shampoo for your hair. I hope you enjoy it!

[@mailuna9196]

Just wanted to let you know the egg white contains about 4.8g of protein the yolk 2.9- 3.2g of protein so it would be better to just use the whole egg. Running it through a strainer helps it mix with the other ingredients better. hop this helps someone.

[@beautifulqueen748]

Mai Luna yes thats what i do thanks i just can't waste a egg i even use the shell

[@256Quay]

Hey Shalena thank you for taking the time out to do the hair boot camp and educate and inspire us to take our hair care very seriously. I have been natural now coming up on four years. However I was wearing sewn in weaves which I thought was helping my hair. Now that I am wearing my hair out I am excited about prepooing. I found Rapunzel through your blogs and hairfinity and the potion. I am trying to come up with a regime that will work for me to maintain my healthy hair.

[@cookinggardeningwithchar8184]

Great video! I got rid of the Avocado lumps by blending my hair masks in my Ninja. I like to add banana and it helps with those chunks too :)

[@kateuwandu6922]

Love they way your always positive . I have tried it and it worked .So glad. Thank you

[@sapphirehaircare]

Avocado is good for the hair I use half of it and mix it with my kiwi lime VO5 shampoo with apricot oil and I just leave this on for about 35 minutes, tfs God bless you 💜🙏

[@shalenadiva]

I have to try that mixture. TY for sharing.

[@andreavable]

I wanted to thank u for putting together the Healthy Hair Boot Camp. It was just what I needed since I was newly natural/transitioning. I really learned a lot.

[@MirrahMirrah11]

May all be well with you.....I found the video yesterday of you doing your neighbors hair....THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!!! IVE SHARED WITH MY TEEN DAUGHTERS....i DID A BIG CHOP ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO...USING YOUR METHODS TO "LOOSEN" AND STRAIGHTEN MY CURLS!!!! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH...BLESSINGS TO YOU ALWAYS

[@metafiction26]

banana is a good substitute. It does the same thing--shiny, strong results, high in potassium and other vitamins. Just make sure to blend it very very smoothly, it is prone to get caught in hair if not. baby food banana purees are most commonly used. also coconut milk. it is even higher in potassium and proteins. ;D

[@shalenadiva]

I'm so glad you were able to get something from the boot camp. I'm working on some new hair videos that I hope will help people. That's what it's all about to me.

[@MagicalBevanna]

Hi I hope you don't mind me subbing to you. I have very curly hair and to make any headway whatsoever with my hair I use a lot of African hair products. I also make a deep conditioning mask with mayo, egg yolk and olive oil, after using the dryness has gone. I also use the NO Poo hair wash, that helps so much. I'm definitely going to no poo my hair using your advocardo, I'm not bothered about my hair being straight, I just want it soft with no dry ends. Yes my colour is natural too, and I never use a hairdryer to dry my hair, or own straighteners. I usually just use my dryer to help warm my hair once I've put a plastic cap on. Looking forward to learning more. Thanks ☺

[@shalenadiva]

@256Quay, I'm so excited for you. I will do my best to help people build a regimen that suits them. Far too often, people try to adopt a regimen that really doesn't suit their lifestyles. Over the next few weeks, I will create videos that educate people and give them the tools they need to make good decisions for their hair. My next video will be dedicated to finding a great shampoo. I hope it will help you.

[@shaketawood432]

your hair is so.healthy and long thanks for the tip hun your.hair is lovely

[@esthermor9]

There are so many different products to use. I like this because you are using natural items to achieve beautiful hair. Look forward to putting it in my hair.

[@nguxiocmit89]

your hair is absolutely gorgeous!!!

[@CaribbeanAtheist1978]

I've never heard about a prepoo before until now, watching this (your) video. Your hair is really pretty! I will definitely try this. Thanks for educating and sharing.

[@audreythomas1124]

Alright now!! Diva you did your thang!! Great job Shalena! Your hair is beautiful!

[@monalisa360]

I love that you don't have a relaxer!! Your hair looks great.

[@Giggles50]

I prepoo with grapeseed oil. I added grapeseed oil, can of coconut milk and vegetable glycerin to my avocado mix to enhance moisturizing. Grapeseed oil works like a charm. I condition with my normal conditioner after I put on the avocado mask as a deep conditioner.

[@1YDay]

I've tried this and it works so well. Thank you.

[@Inquisition12]

Shalena, this is a great video! Thanks for creating and sharing it. You've inspired me to give it a try.

[@empressionablyyours8879]

Having natural hair w/o any sort of chemicals en it can be very challenging fi those who are converting from perm-to-natural. Mi been natural fi over 14 yrs now & mi mek everyting from shampoo to conditioner, treatments, etc just as yuh; and avocado does wonders on the hair & skin as well, same fi the various oils & egg yoke yuh mentioned. Fi so long many have been taught how to treat their hair European way instead of with their own natural hair textures. Mi fiance has dreadlocks past his buttocks & he's only had dem fi a less than 12 years and he to only use 100% pure natural products. Thank yuh fi sharing your hair strengthening, growth & thickening remedies with us. Jah bless One love.

[@preedestined1]

I love uuuuuuu! Ur personality, the way u explain things, u have such a sweet, sweet spirit and I can tell u have a beautiful heart! May God continue to bless u and ur family!!!

[@shalenadiva]

Thank you!!!!! I love you back!!!

[@barbrab8188]

I am so grateful that I came across your videos. I plan to try this recipe and hope it works for me. I had a weave added to my hair once for a wedding where I was a bridesmaid years ago. Hated it. It was done correctly by a professional and it was pretty. Just not for me. I keep my hair clean, moisturized, and straight (permed). Now I want to see if my hair will grow so I can leave the harsh chemicals alone. Thanks again.

[@ginaedwards3229]

Wonderful explanation of all of the health benefits of each ingredient. Look forward to using a pre-poo in my regimen in the future. Enjoyed the video!

[@jacquettaniccolla2679]

I just done this last night on my little girl hair she's 8 years old and her hair isn't as strong or thick as I waint her hair to be but when I did this with her I seen a BEAUTIFUL RESULT with her hair and she even Love's it too thank you again for this video I'm doing my hair today right now!!! Lol 😉 good stuff! Thank you

[@shalenadiva]

[@tirzahingram-johnson7232]

I love you!! You are so descriptive and patient!! Thanks!!

[@osoimagingpr7759]

ok, so I fell asleep w/ it in my hair by accident. I hope I did not mess anything up. I dont think my hair was soft after, not sure if that was from using baking soda & vinegar to wash it or if it comes from sleeping in it all night. I did notice, however, that I did not have the usual HANDS FULL of hair coming out each time I run my them through my hair while washing it. There was may be one & half of a hand full this morning. When I styled it, it was the same thing.... a few strands! LORD HAVE MERCY! Thank you!

[@moniquemiller04]

I'm natural and i tried the Avocado hair mask, and it does work. But instead of an Egg i used Coconut Milk. But it really does make your hair soft.

[@brendakabanda2181]

Thanks, it's a year since I went natural. Your videos has helped me so much to understand my hair.

[@antioneraymond5780]

Thanks for sharing. How often do you recommend doing this treatment? Cindy, GA, USA

[@callmepr117]

Your pre poo is amazing!! My hair is natural and it conditioned my hair better than I ever had before. then used Castile soap to wash. Thx so much!!!!!!

[@Anna-hu6ce]

Hiiii shalena plx after the pre-poo do u definitely need a shampoo?? I heard you said is been over 7yrs you didn't relax you hair?? If the case that's awesome I love this image you portray And it shows you really positive ....God bless you

[@chishanakazwe8925]

This is amazing can't wait to try it. Am trying to go organic on everything so thanks again. God bless

[@shalenadiva]

Remember, you can always try more oil if you feel as though it's dry. EXPERIMENT! EXPERIMENT! EXPERIMENT!

[@whateverticklesyourpicklem2518]

I want to try this. Never done a prepoo before.

[@shalenadiva]

You will love it. Use more oil if you feel it's needed. Much success!!!

[@kylieluciabeb8024]

+shalenadiva please what type of oil please?

[@JoannRoss-mm2qv]

I have tried it 🎉great job div...your hair looks great job ❤Thanks for tips I also made a shampoo and conditioner Elwell your hair is so beautiful keep up the good work.❤🎉

[@reddgurl1836]

LOVE it!! I'm doing this today for my hair and my three year old. Thank you!

[@mariechoute8695]

Love your treatment i am going to try it are you relaxed or natural?

[@Music963]

She is natural she is using this as a relaxer replacement . She says she hasn’t had a relaxer in 7years in the video. As you watch the video the part when she put the treatment on her hair, you will see it almost instantaneously smooth her hair on the side she applied it compared to the right that she had not applied it yet.

[@MsRoxie25]

Gurl, I just subbed, you & your hair are gorgeous!! You & other natural Ytubers have convinced me to stop using the creamy crack. I now know that it is possible to have long healthy hair without the relaxer!!!

[@dianeowens9133]

I think I die and gone to heaven, I have very dry and every time I comb my hair I comb out a lot of hair thank you so much for this video

[@dauphnemcmurry6759]

wow your hair looks so shiny and healthy and beautiful.

[@ilovecrayfish]

Yes, because it is considered a carrier oil. I think she said use 2 tablespoons so if soybean oil is what you have then definitely use 2 tablespoons of that.

[@TheMyssT]

Ok Shalena...this is where I'm starting. Now you'll have to take me through the entire process.I'll do this and a sulfate free shampoo...until you tell me more. Waiting for the next video!

[@shalenadiva]

@vsc162, YES, you can save your prepoo mixture. I would recommend freezing it though. I 've read that garlic oil is great for stimulating hair growth. I'm glad you loved this video!!!!

[@shalenadiva]

Hey @haskellmaureen, It may be a few weeks before I do simply because I ONLY blow it out once a month to do a length check. But I promise to do one for you guys. My hair comes out so straight and shiny. I'm glad you chimed in.

[@nickim93]

i also do a treatment like this once a week; you can do it as many time as you would like but i recommend doing this mask once a week or twice a month mainly because it is very protein rich and if you have to much protein in your heir it will lead to hair loss and scalp irritation. Hope this helped,

[@lavpie8328]

Martina Peters I didn't know too much protein can lead to breakage. Thank you

[@taquanacollins1533]

Hey I just tried this it works yea!

[@haskellmaureen]

when will u put up the video on how to flat iron or whatever u do to your hair to look like that i love it. up i really need to see that soon

[@melody132742]

any hair product can suits any hair,its just depends with the texture wise ,obviously if u have knda more thin hair type than hers then time wise will be less,if do use the same techniques u going to live the conditioner/mask for less time and also white hair dont need oil as much as african hair dosent so some conditioners are really oily so u dont want that,but for thicker hair it is the best.

[@springroselove]

love it .... you make it so easy with your explanation ...thumbs up for you and definitely i will give it a try

[@GailBecker-MSED-CM-Author]

I know GOD revealed this to you because He did the same to me many years age. I have been making my own hair and skin products for at least a couple of decades. I also have remedies from my grandmother too. However, in 1999, I was diagnosed with a lump in my left breast and I had a large protruding mole the size of a very large blackberry that the doctors wanted to cut off and test for cancer. However, I told them no, I went home, fast and prayed and GOD revealed to me which foods to eat to get rid of the lump and the mole. I literally watched the mole drain, dry up and fall off in my hand and eventually, the lump shrunk and disappeared. Decades later, after a car accident that temporarily left me unable to walk, GOD revealed to me which foods to combine to make a natural painkiller because the prescription painkillers made me sick. So, when your video on hair popped up I was curious to see which ingredients you were using. Although I do use eggs and avocado with different other ingredients, I do not use vegetable oil.

[@AboveBlessed]

Thanks for sharing this information because I've been searching for products to help with my dry hair. This has been very helpful.

[@LovelyMissBebe]

Awesome..definitely going to try this prepoo regiment. Do you also add any additional oils, such as coconut oil, to your hair to in between your hair washings to keep it oiled and conditioned daily?

[@sonna4298]

That turned out lovely!!

[@sakmishaq]

Thank you so much for sharing these home made remedies for natural hair. I'm definitely going to try this.

[@Tangleduntangled]

Good video, but just like other cultures your hair can get knotty or tangled really bad. So if your hair gets really matted-just use the Take Down remover/detangler cream. it will soften the hair deeply and allow you to safely detangle without hair loss.

[@NaomiChan38]

So, you mix avocado, egg yolk and the oil together and put that on your hair for at least 30 mins before, washing your hair , right??

[@pattbreezee]

Awesome!!!!! Love the video!!!!! I'm going to start doing pre poos for sure, your hair looks gorgeous and healthy! BRAVO!!!

[@Novbaby]

What is your regim? How many days should I prepoo my hair? Do you co wash ? How many times do ou wash you hair and what are you favorite hair products? Finally, what is your hair pattern 3c 4a ? Sorry for all the questions.

[@ndagiresandra8858]

Getting tips from someone with healthy hair❤️..thx soo..av always wanted to stop perming but was scared how unruly my growth wud get

[@curlynella1011]

Your hair looks so healthy

[@_orlaithhh6456]

Thank you so so much! My hair never grows. This has helped so much, It's insane!

[@cinnamin1010]

Yes, I cant eat eggs as well and I put it in my hair. Try a small amount in your hair and if you have an allergic reaction just stop using it. Try mayo instead.

[@dayjohnson7942]

You have some nice long hair and looks really healthy, that's what I'm looking for. How long have you been using this prepoo method? And is this how your hair has become so healthy looking? Thanks.

[@Crimson2AT]

Thank you for the tutorial. Your hair is beautiful, and I love your makeup.

[@anniea8796]

Amazing! Your hair looks wonderful. I have to try this. I didn't know you could use canola oil on hair? Do you do this technique every time you wash your hair?

[@shalenadiva]

Angie R Hello. No, I use this no more than twice a month.

[@shalenadiva]

@Esthermor9, Other than my shampoo and conditioner, I only use natural products. I RARELY go out and buy products. My hair has been through so much that I'm just wary of so many chemicals. You may have to put the mixture in a blender because the avocados may be chunky, but hopefully you'll love it!!

[@shalenadiva]

Hey @Utubeuzername84-- there was an interesting discussion about this on the Black Girl with Long Hair forum. Some shared your view and others didn't. I think you should check out the article. I'll post the link when I can.

[@tcorpening100]

+ i love the shineyness of your hair

[@shalenadiva]

Hey @yasminN130-- LOl! No offense taken. Yes, this is suitable for just about everyone. I got the idea from an Asian woman. It's all natural products so almost no one can go wrong. Just select a carrier oil that suits your hair's type and needs,ok? Much success!!!

[@lizwashington862]

i am going to try this in a few minutes on my daughters hair Diva. will let you know how it turns out. by the way she is mixed with with VERY dry and course hair and her hair soaks up everything we put in it...

[@shareeharris6912]

New subscriber!! Thanks for all you do!! :)

[@staellie7089]

I tried it, and I am very pleased. Just wondering how often should it be done?

[@TheRealTawanaNicole]

your eyes are gorgeous! anyway thanks for this! my hair is pretty easy to get through so i don't usually pre-poo but i will forsure try this! does the avocado serve as protein?

Enjoyed the vid, may have to try this due to my 15 inches of hair constantly breaking and splitting.

[@adrianabaez5218]

Great video! Love the detailed content thanks for sharing! I've been incorporating this method on my hair for a couple year and I love the results when I do this during the cold, dry winter season. I wanted to add that using Brown Organic eggs (farmers market or supermarket) in the pre-poo mask, make a big difference. Organic eggs may be expensive, but it's worth the investment to introduce natural properties in your body. the body digests those minerals and vitamins fast and better long-term. Also if you're using Coconut Oil, make sure it says "Unrefined", meaning none of the natural properties have been striped which is essential minerals for the body and hair. Again, thanks for sharing this- very informative and I love your results!

[@shalenadiva]

Love it!!! TY fr sharing your sharing your awesome tips!!! I will try them out!!! BOOM

[@butterflygirl3647]

Please ask the person who is actually video recording you to show what you are doing with your hands. This would make your video more effective. Thank you.

[@isaiahsrhenderson1490]

HI Shalena Diva I would like to know how did you get that look without using flat irons. You said that you would post a separate video but I haven't seen it yet.

[@shalenadiva]

Hey, did post a video. It was bone straight without a flat iron. It's a technique Domincan hairstylists use to get hair straight without the flat iron. Most women in PHilly get their hair washed, then go straight to the blowdryer, but getting roller set then a blowout is much better in my opinion.

[@adizetumomoh1336]

Hi. Thanks for the video. I have a question. Can the prepoo be applied on virgin hair? Thanks

[@marycampbell4436]

Omg thanks this really help and you are really smart you fully explained what each of the products do to your hair thanks so much

[@CamsPurpleCorner]

I am getting ready to try this recipe and then will inform you of 'My' results.🙄 Yes, I am Aware that this video was posted many years ago, but if I can help anyone by posting what 'My Experience' was using this method then that is Exactly what I am going to do!😏💯 Btw, why did U change up the recipe for this video, but used different ingredients when you did the Avocado pre-poo for "your neighbor" (older woman that U also did a 'Natural Perm')?🤔 Actually, I believe you Omitted an ingredient or two (2). The oil used in That video was vegetable, but you didn't mention that particular oil in This video (I'm asking because I'm curious & would like to know if it makes a difference).🤔 Well, let me get started on my hair and as I previously stated, I will post 'My' results!👌 Thanks!👍

[@madscientist90]

Dear, would you consider your hair as thick in this video?

[@teresawilson2682]

Do you just rinse it out and blow dry?

[@FallenxAngEllen]

Can you put this mask on your hair more than once on a week? Or do you have to wait because it wil 'damage' your hair by putting it too much on your hair?
