What’s crazy is when I was relaxed and didn’t pay attention to any of this stuff, no issues. No hygral fatigue problems. Become natural and bam all these rules. While I’m never returning to a relaxer, it was definitely less demanding. I agree on coconut oil. It’s a terrible sealant but a fabulous pre-poo

@@tracythomas5467 saammee. Now in wondering what to do I'm considering grapeseed oil since I have low porosity hair. Any tips on good moisturizers?

[@nbucwa6621]

I think its because, in its relaxed state, the cuticle lays at its flattest so does not take too much water in and therefore avoids the hydral fatigue. The strand is also straight enough for the scalp's natural oils to run down the strands length keeping the strand fairly moisturised. The biggest obstacle w kinky hair is that our natural oils cannot get to the bottom of the hair shaft because of the. Strand shape which leaves us with dull, dry hair.

Me: I'm a P.I.M.P Me: after watching video: staring at 98% my hair products with disdain. Honestly I stopped using most of them and just went back to blue magic with the coconut oil, olive oil, coconut oil (unrefined), Jamaican castor oil, and my shea butter (raw and african). IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW. I was constantly putting coconut oil on my hair after washing (w/ or w/o shampoo) and my hair would be bone dry in less than 3 hours but with pockets of dampness. I noticed my hair DID however look great when I pre-poo'd with coconut oil and then rinsed with hot water (for me I lowkey found this out on accident yeaaaars ago when I was running late for middle school and I put too much coconut oil in my hair and I was like nah I'm not bouta get roasted like that today so I leaned over the tub and rinsed it all out. I HAVE NEVER had my hair feel so soft and pantene-bougie. I don't know why I stopped doing that but I have recently returned to it after finally realizing that pree-pooing is not extra it is needed). Thank you soooo much for the videos. It's honestly hard to find good information not rooting in baseless fact in the natural hair care community (but this is slowly changing I have noticed) and It's between you and 3 other youtubers.

All growing up through now, my hairstylists in the salons have always commented about how dryyyyyyyy my hair was, with an exasperated question mark. Yet, no one ever offered a solution or helpful comments. Thank goodness for the internet and the info on hair porosity!!!! From there, when I would ask questions to my hairstylists, I would just get a blank look. I am now natural for over a year, and my hair is just still so dryyyy! My bathroom has every oil, several shampoos, several conditioners, silk bonnets, silk pillow cases, etc. I've got microwavable heating caps and electric. I've got vitamins, stocked refrigerator and cabinets with cucumbers, salmon, sardines, organic foods, collagen supplements. Hundreds of dollars! When I try something new, it works for 2 weeks, and then here comes queen sahara again. It's true that we all have to experiment to see what works for each of us.

I have high porosity hair and just started using Kinky Curly Knot Today Leave-In with good results. I think the slippery elm and marshmellow root help to coat the hair and smooth the cuticles which provides slip so my hair doesn't tangle around itself quite as much. I also started spraying a 50:50 alove vera juice and water mixture before the leave in.

[@naturellewonder]

I use the Knot Today mixed with aloe vera juice because I pH tested the Knot Today and it was pH 6. That's a bit too high for my high porosity hair so the AVJ lowers it to 4-5 and then I can seal with an oil or butter. Hair has a natural pH of 4.5 to 5.5.

Do you guys feel aloe Vera feels like dry gel on your hair once it dries? And don't you get those aloe flakes? Or the fact you follow it with shea butter or oil diminishes this effect of its gel. I mean I know it is a gel indeed.

[@a1vastey]

Khadija Omer you should try the aloe Vera juice as opposed to the aloe Vera gel. The gel gives me flakes but the juice never does.

[@moa2501]

@Kahdija Omer, I agree with you, the gel does leave flakes when dry. That's how I started before I realised it. Now I add one cup of aloe Vera gel to two cups of water then spritz it on my hair in sections before sealing with the Shea butter. I add vanilla essential oil to the Shea butter so my hair will smell nice.

I never even heard of PMP until now! You explained this so clearly! I don't really use coconut oil anymore but I will try it for penetration. I have low porosity hair and I really like the she moisture jbco leave in, creme of nature spray leave in and ziza leave in, a Nigerian Brand!

[@MissBrendaLeeGertman]

Overall, I am still looking for a moisturizer.

[@lamar7902]

I had been avoiding oils for a while after hearing some tubers rant about butters and oils. My hair suffered. I cook with Avocado oil, so I put some into a dropper bottle to keep with my hair care supplies. I put some on my hair when I'm setting it before bed and the next morning my hair was in much better shape.

[@SamMKKK]

Your hair looks so bouncy and healthy. 😍 (Ahaha mine cannot relate but it’s fine.)

[@moeka95]

I make the old school Kimmaytube leave-in. It’s my absolute favorite moisturizer. My hair thrives when I use it.

[@rochelleedmonds9537]

Great, informative video.. I’m high porosity so I like heavier, moisturizing creams. My absolute favorite products are by Qhemet Biologics.

[@estuarry]

the way you explained this and the infographics you used made this click so easily for me. you’re a fantastic teacher! thank you so much for sharing your knowledge ❣️

[@CurlyChemistry]

Thank you! ☺️

[@KammyKamzz]

Great tips! Happy to know I’m on the right track.. I don’t have a favourite moisturizer because I’m unable to commit to any one product 🙈. My favourite leave ins though are Kinky Curly Knot Today and Giovanni Direct Leave In

[@RiiaasCoils]

Oh my soul. I watched this a week ago and I decided to try this method. My hair loves itt😭 I’ve been able to retain moisture for 5 days❤️ thank you @Curly Chemistry ❤️

[@shayna828]

First of all your hair is fabulous. Second of all I agree with everything you're saying. Btw I'm high porosity

[@CurlyChemistry]

Thanks Shayna!

Facts

[@ladybird491]

What is working for me is honey and hibiscus leave in conditioner and neem based butter cream homemade by privately owned black owned businesses on Etsy online. I use a little bit of grease on the scalp. My hair is super soft shortly after and I get lots of compliments on my hair. I also keep dead ends out of my hair, so my hair looks very even healthy thick and soft. I wouldn't dare use coconut oil, it hardens when dries. I will only use olive oil and hair grease. My hair loves steamer!!

[@lashundavis4231]

Thank you so much you just broke down for me way my new wash day routine has been working so well for me

[@CurlyChemistry]

You are so welcome! :-)

[@sc3167]

@Lashun Davis what products do you use for your wash day?

[@lamoskgr]

I love this type of content. There is so much information about straight hair but I've seen only two KZbinrs proving this type of information ❤️

[@trueblackbeauty6821]

Thank you so much. Being low porosity great for me is the Camilla rose honey leave in and seal with olive oil.

[@lowkeynonymous570]

True Black Beauty is it really moisturizing ? I also have low porosity hair and really struggle with my hair being dry😭

[@belindacobb]

@@lowkeynonymous570 does she ever have sales on her products? I want to try but I am on a budget.

[@CREOLE_]

@1:11 Yes, all the time. Even when I condition my hair. It never pentrates.

[@feljohn5828]

Omg, I was waiting for this video thank you soo much. Please make a video on henna, and the best way to make it for kinky 4c hair. Keep up the good work. God bless you doll.

[@beforgiveness7720]

Yes Can you clarify the steps So example 1 coconut oil 1hour prior to washing 2 conditioner 3 air or blow dry 4 Coconut oil 5 aloe juice 5 grease or butter

[@georgiapeach310]

Thanks for this! I love a combo of aloe Vera juice, fenugreek and water to moisturize and good ole Blue Magic to seal.

[@deijha13]

georgiapeach310 do you have low porosity or high porosity hair?

[@a_noelles]

That's funny! I use this too and haven't seen anyone else mention mixing the fenugreek and the aloe vera. My hair loves this combination.

[@georgiapeach310]

@@deijha13 high porosity, but this combo keeps moisture in my hair for 2-3 days.

[@georgiapeach310]

@@a_noelles me either! It took me a long time to figure it out because I was so busy following every body else's routine.

[@a_noelles]

@@deijha13 if it matters, I'm low porosity and still, my hair loves this and it says moisturized for days. Hard not to with that good blue magic as a sealer though.

[@WiseLady7]

My favorite natural leave-in moisturizing spritz contains rose water, aloe vera juice, EVOO, and avocado oil. I then place the spritz bottle in very warm water. Wait 5-10 minutes then spray my leave-in spritz all over my hair. Sometimes I will add several drops of lemongrass essential oil. This concoction leaves my hair soft and supple. I love it! I plan to add veggie glycerin in future preps.

[@monica1102r]

Thanks for covering both low & high porosity. At 1st I was like she's talking about low, what about me high. Thank you. Great video 👍

[@CurlyChemistry]

Thanks for watching! :-)

[@JessicaA777]

Got it. So coconut oil, liquid leave in Conditioner, and castor oil or hair grease that tcb oil to seal in all in for me. 1. Coconut oil 2. Liquid leave in Conditioner for that water! 3. Castor oil to seal (or that tcb oil to sit on the hair and seal in moisture) Sweet was wondering why my hair was dry after I put in water and coconut oil!! Now Inknow I have to get that third step- castor oil. Your awesome girl thank you!!

[@nicelagirl]

I'm still rockin' with Giovanni Direct Leave-in as a moisturizer, sealed in with my Blue Magic! Done and done.

[@samiraj.192]

Me too, I love that leave-in & it's so affordable! I just started using grease & so far I like Palmer's gro therapy & Dax grease w/ beeswax & royal jelly. Your pairing is a lot like this long-haired KZbinr's: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXLJmaZsZZxpZ6M Happy hair journey!

[@vayoha02]

I like Alikay leave in conditioner and sealed with The Doux creme. I use B&B grease, that's what I've used since childhood. I also used Doo Gro. I never heard of blue magic grease until 2 or 3 yrs ago. Never used it.

[@renatapaiz2379]

Thank you, for taking the time out of your busy schedule 2make these videos...You just don't know how much....Help this GENUINELY is. 😊

[@hotdogwater2118]

I always prepoo I’ve seen such a difference!

[@sandraD3971]

Great tips👏🏽👏🏽 for my high porosity🤷🏽‍♀️ hair.Will start using hair grease alongside my hair moisturiser to help retain moisture and give a bit more volume to my hair,also pre- pooing hair with oil before washing.

[@rionell412]

Thank you so so much! High porosity over here. No wonder my doo gro grease works so well for me and now I know WHY my hair looks bomb after my overnight prepoo with coconut oil. Sometimes I don't wanna wash my hair lol

[@mz.tyrisha4560]

Love your channel I am a high porosity girl and what your saying is absolutely right (of course it would be curly chemist)!! I do all these things and my hair is at its optimum health. Thanks so much for reassuring me that I’m going the right direction! Have a great weekend 😊

[@CurlyChemistry]

Yay! You're so welcome!! :-D

[@ninaalimeyawu2765]

My favorite moisturizer is Camille Rose moisture milk 🌚

[@nicolef2496]

💗💗💗💗that milk!!!

[@tailorforeman7082]

Can you explain why heating improves the affect of a moisturizer. I have a chemistry degree (just regular chem not cosmetic chem) and I don't fully understand why it makes the difference. I feel like it's simply because heat opens the cuticle but I'm not sure lol
