I used to think "scalp training" worked, but now I think that you just train yourself to tolerate more greasy hair

[@AbbeyYung]

Totally agree!

[@whitney1677]

100%...and it brought eczema into my life. 🤦‍♀️

[@MakeUpTraffic]

Fungus/dandruff love oily hair.

[@type1dmama299]

Yes. Dr. Dray says not washing hair every single day is actually not good. I love Abbey but I definitely trust Dr. Dray and now am back to washing my scalp/hair every day.

[@a.hopeful.rosebud837]

@@whitney1677for me it actually helps my eczema to wash my hair twice a week instead of every day like i used to, my scalp is way less irritated. part of it is having found better gentler products, but part is also washing less

[@marieke_lk]

I used to use fabric softener on my synthetic wigs! Now that actually makes sense, because it's designed to put a layer on your clothes, and because synthetic wigs are pretty much the same material (plastic), it made the wigs feel really soft! Would I use it on human hair wigs though? Absolutely not 😂

[@AbbeyYung]

😂😂😂

[@ITalkToPixels]

My mum did this to me when I was a child and we'd run out of conditioner, so like 20 years ago ish. She said she did the same when she was young. Idk, my hair was super prone to tangleing then, so I understand that we needed some sort of smothening agent

[@anabanannapants]

Hair training is you training yourself to be more used to the oiliness of your hair. So nice to hear someone call out this claim. Imma go watch your other video now!

[@AbbeyYung]

Exactly what I said in that video too 😂

[@freemindsloveforever]

Kinda like heat training hair for curlies: you are simply learning to accept heat damage lol

[@theeellebee]

Abbey, part 3 should be worst advice you've ever received from a hairdresser. I had one tell me that I don't need conditioner if I use a coconut oil deep condition once a week Yeah no!!

[@manojipereira9169]

I had one who scraped scissors on a section of my hair to show that I had "buildup" because I wasn't using a salon shampoo. So I basically paid for someone to do irreversible damage to my hair cuticle

[@theeellebee]

@@manojipereira9169 that's insane!!

[@grespinosa]

There was a time in my life when I was destitute and only had dish soap for hair & body washing - but that was many years ago and would never voluntarily consider it!! 👀🤦‍♀

I saw someone selling a hair straightener tool saying the steam coming off of the hair was actually conditioning the hair 😮 OMG

[@thesilvercanis]

[@LOPEZM92]

What are your thoughts about rosemary oil or people making rosemary water to spray onto hair? 👀

[@greenfairy4894]

That is great for your hair. I use hibiscus tea and rosemary tea on scalp and hair.

[@maddytedesco6084]

I am usually very anti DIY hair care / skin care but diluted ACV from the pantry after a good shampoo as a treatment is FAB. It’s cheap, always on hand, and effective ☺️

[@lamemechose7072]

So many of these are “in a pinch, you can use X as Y…” or things that are meant for a very specific situation (like when I line cook didn’t realize I was crouched down cleaning and pushed all the old French fries onto my head & I had to use diluted Dawn to get that out), or have a grain of truth but have been very distorted. I think the “scalp training” thing comes from people washing less, which means not over-stripping, which means less of your body trying to compensate (by producing more oil), which means a less grease. I didn’t understand that concept until my dermatologist told me the same thing about my under-moisturized oily face. I still get super greasy in the heat, but I’m much less oily under normal circumstances since I started adding the moisturizer instead of forcing my face to do it for me.

[@aprilcharter9926]

Apple cider vinegar rinse has been really helpful for my hair. I think my hair is so rough due to hardwater and it makes a difference in softness.

[@greenfairy4894]

Once a month to clarify

[@alexandragrace8164]

My dermatologist says that cosmetic scalp care products are completely pointless, and some can even cause a dreadful medical condition. For example, she warned me against scalp scrubs because they can cause micro-tears on the scalp and create the perfect environment for fungal and bacterial infections, especially if you’re using a scalp oil too. If you have any dramas with your scalp, as I personally have, a dermatologist can give you pharmacological, lifestyle, and dietary advice to address your particular condition.

[@gdg1326]

Maybe try liquid exfoliating products? I know aveda has one and it works great but it’s too expensive so I never repurchased it. Maybe other more affordable brands have something similar too 😊

[@jenniferlynn3537]

I think the person who claimed fabric softener could be used in place of conditioner misunderstood her hairdresser. I HAVE heard that if you are suffering with very static-y hair (as when you’ve under-conditioned your hair), that running a dry fabric softener sheet lightly over top of your hair can resolve that “finger in the light-socket” look. However, it’s NOT a replacement for proper conditioning, and in no circumstance should liquid softener be applied to hair! 🙄

[@deborahbinnie5652]

I appreciate the science that you bring to your videos. I had never heard of any of these theories of hair care, but that's probably because I don't pay attention much to social media.

[@daniellehodgson105]

The one about the dish soap reminds me of my grandmother telling me she had to do this to her hair because of how she had three kids to take care of and not a lot of money 🙁🙁 But at least she doesn't have to do it anymore and I don't think she did it all the time but I wouldn't know. It was so sad to hear about!! My poor grandmothers hair!!!!!!

[@ceciliacooper1462]

Oh goodness, citrus fruit in the hair! Guilty. And I have jet black hair. 25-years ago middle school me was not happy with the result. Looking forward to your review on Sun-In!! 😝 Great video, Abbey!! Thank you always!

Some of these were crazy. People should know better than to follow this advice. Great video!

[@joannmannarino8898]

I have the baby fine hair and have always used different serums to “grow it out”. Recently I watched a video on this and it made absolute sense. My hair is still growing at a normal rate which is apparent as I need to get root touch ups every 1-2 months. Instead we need to focus on the ends of our hair which are the oldest part and often wind up splitting which is the reason our hair stops growing instean of focusing on the scalp and these hair growth serums we need to take care of the middle section and especially the ends using leave in condition after every shampoo and using pil on the ends. I’ve just begun doing this so too early to tell but my hairdresser recently recommended a haircare line called truss and wow!! I have really noticed a difference in the overall health of Mymensingh hair. Just the shampoo and conditioner but they also sell a heat protectant as well as a treatment called night spa which I just used for the first time (sparingly from the midsection focusing on the ends. Wow is all I can say. This products have been a total game changer for me. If you get a chance, I love for you to check them out and do a review. I think you will be extremely impressed.

[@user-dh8ur7pp5p]

I also have baby fine hair, and one of the most important factors for me is pre-wash care and taking special care to not apply very much product. I brush out my hair super well before showers, and I take care to clean well, but not to be rough. I use oil very very very sparingly/if at all, and I trim my ends at least every 4 weeks. I also brush/comb my hair in sections to avoid snapping. Only use a comb when wet.,. Never a brush. And I stopped using brushes with plastic bristles. I use wood. I also almost never use any heat whatsoever. My hair HATES heat- esp recovering from previous damage

[@unicornshark5527]

I did research extensively on haircare and totally AGREE with EVERYTHING you have said and guess what? You are CORRECT MA'AM! 💕💕💕

Regarding the hair training one, i agree, from personal experience, it didn’t make a difference. Re the fabric softener, I remember as a kid hearing that you can put fabric softener in ur dolls hair to help. I wonder if that’s where people got it from lol 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[@CareyXO]

I feel like some of these are things my mom or grandma told me about loooong ago before there was really good hair care out there. 😂

[@spiritual_lifecoach_vab]

Everyone needs to listen to this lady! Everything she is saying is true... 25 yrs ago there was not all this great hair and skin products and brands... I used baby shampoo as face wash and Pantene for hair bc most the face washes was too harsh and most hair products (except professional) was all kinda the same ... You should take advantage and enjoy all the amazing hair and skin products made for hair and skin ... Sorry for the long comment .. 🙃

[@chucklehead.smitty]

I used baby wash as face wash for years too! It was the only thing I found that was gentle enough on my dry, sensitive skin. Skin care, especially drug store skin care has come sooo far in the last 10 years.

Hi Abbey! I'm not sure if you have ever done a review on this but I was recently recommended the malibu un doo goo as a clarifying shampoo with a PH of 9. I don't plan on using this shampoo often but is that too high of a PH?

[@jakeroege]

I just wanted to say to your first point, I have chronic seb derm and it flares and calms somewhat randomly. But my hair always looks healthy🤷‍♂️ I don't do any styling really except a little light hold product, so that probably helps, but the scalp and hair aren't necessarily connected! Good to take care of both, but just because one is damaged, doesn't mean the other will 🤷‍♂️

I’m sorry… FABRIC SOFTENER???

[@AbbeyYung]

[@Thegenerator100]

One thing I‘m always confused about is WHEN to use ACV rinse. From my understanding, when properly dilluted, its acidic properties are supposed to close the cuticles and remove build-up at the same time and should therefore be used AFTER conditioning. But I regularly read that people use it with their shampoo or before conditioner to avoid the ACV from stripping the hair from natural oil, so maybe use it BEFORE conditioning? 😅

I can’t believe people would use Dawn dish soap on their hair.

The whole hair training thing aggravates me. In the curly community, it is done so the hair can "memorize" curl form... boooy! If you have to do this, are you sure you have curly hair? How can you train something that is dead and the shape is defined from you follicles? I finish my styling in 5 minutes and then leave my hair to curl with no need for training. The whole perfeect curly hair trend is just ridiculous. It works if you don't leave your home... ever. Any curly that goes outside wwill have frizz...all it needs is a little wind.😂

[@user-un7bq1pr8z]

Here is my take on oil training: If this worked, I could wash my face less and have a less oily face. That will never happen. I have oily skin and hair and have had it for 45 years. My derm says she has people in their 80s with oily skin and scalp.

[@jenny9544]

saw someone use cornstarch instead of dry shampoo.. wondering your thoughts on that.. thanks!

[@greatjob_barbara]

I have heard that too, but imagine trying to get corn starch evenly through your hair vs using dry shampoo

[@chucklehead.smitty]

I have used arrowroot powder (very similar to corn starch) in a pinch and it worked. You have to rub it into your scalp a bit and do a good brushing to get rid of the white cast. It washed out easily too. Edit to add: I use a makeup brush to lightly apply it on my roots. Too much is a disaster.

@AbbeyYung Hello, I just recently found you and subscribed. I feel like you might be the right one to ask since you are willing to do research on the scientific side. Trying to boil down my question without telling you a crazy amount of stories. Bottom line I have found a lot of the products that have worked so well for me with my hair and sometimes skin and make up, turned out to have endocrine disrupting ingredients. I am 52 and now reaping what I have sown with all these endocrine disrupting things I’ve had in my life. Removing them, I am getting much healthier, however, the products don’t work as well. What are your thoughts on healthy ingredients for women that do not disrupt hormones, but also work well?

For anybody saying ‘but they use dawn on the ducks and they’re fine” 1. You aren’t a duck…they have feathers and you have hair. 2. They don’t really know that it’s that safe because most animals post oil spill die even after being “cleaned”

[@bnpixie1990]

I don't think most of the people using ACV are using pure ACV. Maybe someone who misunderstood the method did that but the people I see explaining it dilute it in water. And one person uses it after cleansing their hair with rhassoul clay. IJS there is a pretty big difference between applying pure ASV directly to the hair and rhassoul clay cleans followed by a diluted ACV rinse.

[@monab9080]

Yes, we didn't have scalp health-related products 20 years ago like we do today in the WEST because if you look at eastern people, especially women they have had long healthy hair for ages. Ask them about their hair care routine and they will tell you it's hair oiling and using some sort of a protein source. Coming from a Southeast Asian background myself, hair oiling was the most beneficial thing you could have done to your hair and the proof is in the pictures. I have pictures and records of women in our family from 100s of years ago and the secret to their healthy hair is hair oils. Sure they didn't bleach their hair or use heat on their hair like we do today but being exposed to UV rays, dirty water, and polluted air to name a few have been there. I am not saying hair oiling is the only fix to all hair health issues but your opinions seem to be rooted very much from a Western perspective. Whoever comes across my comment I beg you to start oiling your hair and it will change your life. I have personally sent people before and after pictures of my own hair because I suffer from PCOS and hair loss came with it as a price to pay for hormonal issues. My PCOS and hormonal issues are getting worse each day but my hair has been the healthiest it has ever been only and only from hair oiling. I changed absolutely nothing in my routine aside from oiling my hair. Unless someone has allergies to the oils they decide to put on their scalp I really don't see why there's such fear of using hair oils.

I agree with you re oiling but I think eastern and asian people have much stronger hair than european for example so protein should be used with caution by as it can cause breakage from overuse.

Don't you think most of the healthy long thick hair you see in a lot of south and southeast Asian women is mostly down to genetics though lol I mean I oil my hair, I'm not saying it's not helpful but I think it's mostly genetics when it comes to the hair you see in countries like India

@@InimeKai I think people tend to think it's due to genetics more than it actually is. You can look up genetics reports on the Southeast Asian population and there is no research/studies out there that says Southeast Asians definitely have long healthy hair due to genetics. However, that's the most common thing we hear about our hair in the West which is a big misconception

@@natmya243 East Asians tend to use rice protein and things like that in their hair but Southeast Asians and Central Asians rely more on hair oiling

@@monab9080 but isnt there also cultural reasons for growing hair long there? I mean very long hair just isn't as popular in the west on the whole. I think it's about more than just oiling lol

I know people say that scalp training has been tasted and proven wrong, but I've found that my hair has gotten less oily over time, sooooo...I don't know if I'm just special, or if the science isn't complete enough, but I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing because it's working. 🤷‍♀️

it’s most likely hormonal, i went from having a dry scalp to an oily scalp to a more balanced scalp due to my hormones balancing out
