Yesterday I took down a sew in and I sprayed my hair with aloe Vera juice and sealed it with an oil and left it in for about 2 hours then I shampooed and deep conditioned and I tried your finger coil method and left it in overnight my hair barely shed and it was so soft. And I used the eden bodyworks leave in and the two kids products from them you use my definition is crazy. Thank you for your videos 💕

[@bre6651]

I love how open u are to everyone's differences. Because I was pressured not to wash my hair unless its been two weeks or longer when I first went natural. Bruh .... It was so itchy and fizzy. my hair does better when I wash every 3 days if I have time or 1 time a week. Hot oil treatments saved my life ❤❤

[@NekiCakes]

Breona a lot don’t know how much pressure we have to face when it comes to our body. I always say listen to yourself and do whatever is right for you. Our hair is naturally dry & hydration plays a key role. Hot oil treatments are definitely my fav also

Neki Cakes thank you. I'm a lil older and came frm a different time and I was always told deep conditioning was sort of a treatment like a once a month or once every couple months. I had no idea it was ok to do it as often as u said

[@brie.3833]

[@theredrose777]

You are literally the first natural I have come across, who has high porosity. I have fine, dry, high porosity hair, as well (spongy type). Every natural I have viewed have said low porosity.

[@ria0991]

Low porosity is more common in the black community.

[@Chin715]

@@ria0991 That's interesting. I always find high porosity

[@BklynBabe]

I have high porosity areas as well. I think a lot of people do, but assume they are low porosity based on how their curls look, if that makes sense...

[@christine3477]

Hearing this makes me feel so much better. I know it sounds absolutely psycho but i have to at least rinse and condition my hair every other day or so or it starts getting super dry and i start looking like nut case.

[@NekiCakes]

B Christine the struggle can be real difficult, it sucks not everyone can retain moisture well. Being mindful of the ingredients you’re using in your hair specially if you are protein sensitive - using products with protein often can really make your hair straw like. A good prepoo/clarify & a serious deep condition is a great way to start off, then continue on with your regular wash routine. Thank you for your message

[@alexandriayoung]

can you soon talk more about the balance between protein and moisture? i think thats only concept I'm not yet understanding well

[@candycrusher6360]

I had a white friend who used to deep condition her hair over a whole weekend. She constantly colored her hair and it was growing like a weed. I never thought much of that until this video. But it makes sense. The more processes you put your hair through the more you need to take care and deep condition

[@sharg1778]

This explains why your type 4 hair is different from mine and no matter if I follow your tips my hair will never look this moisturized because you have high porosity and mine is low porosity. It's easier for your hair to look more moisturized.

[@teresamarlene6425]

You should try to deep condition with heat, it helps to open your strands.

[@NekiCakes]

Sharnell Grant I’m not all type 4, and I don’t claim for everyone’s hair to “look” like mines, the whole point is to achieve proper moisture for those who suffer from dry hair. Low or high porosity can’t stop anyone from obtaining moisturized

[@sharg1778]

@@teresamarlene6425 I do all of that

[@mpr92482]

@@NekiCakes my hair is exactly like yours.

[@Leah_Tewari]

Right! I have found that less is far more for us low-po girls. For example, after cleansing/conditioning, I only use a leave-in and oil, or a moisturizer and oil and that’s it; or sometimes only an oil. And then sometimes I apply a little Shea Butter to my ends only. Once you get the moisture in, it will stay in for a long time. Heat and warm water is a definite need! No cold water rinses. And try to limit proteins and silicones that can cause buildup. The absolute best is using Ayurvedic herbs and clays! Talk about life-changing!

[@Foreignfee]

Yesssssss Gurllll!!! You spoke natural life...I totally agree with everything you said. I tell ppl all the time "you NEED too do consistent maintenance, pay attention to ingredients and what your specific hair likes." Im protein sensitive, so I must avoid. however I still do the same weekly maintenance, but pay attention to ingredients to ensure I don't experience protein overload. Plus if I wait over 7 days to wash, lord knows the dryness and single strand knots I will experience. I know what my hair likes, so I know what products will easily detangle and bring it back. But nobody wants to go threw that struggle or lose hair in the process lol Consistency is Major Key...

[@roguee529]

I used to believe that washing my hair too often was bad for it. I now know that we are stuck in a catch 22. If you don't wet it often enough, it gets dry and tangled. However, if you shampoo it on dried out hair, it gets more dry and just abominable tangles.

Do u spray warm water on your hair b4 applying products? The warm water will open the cuticle of low porosity hair and allow moisture from the products to penetrate better. Or u can warm up the products a lil bit with a bowl of hot water

Thank you love 💕

[@roguee529]

So, if your hair is already dried out, you need to co-wash (conditioner wash) it or do a deep treatment mask on it, before you attempt to shampoo. And the only way to up keep your hair properly is to refresh it once or twice a week. I prefer "As I Am Coconut Co-wash" in stead of shampoo.

[@NekiCakes]

Rogue E I prefer my prepoo method.

[@roguee529]

Don't you pretty much just deep condition it. I saw you make a deep conditioner in, I think it was, your wash day video.

[@NekiCakes]

Rogue E yes but my hair wasn’t dry, I determine what I use on my hair based on how much moisture it has prior to washing. 1st If my hair is dried out prior to washing I do my prepoo then I shampoo. 2nd if it’s still moist prior to washing I deep condition then style I don’t shampoo before of after..if it’s a in between i can cowash it but I rarely do that.

[@roguee529]

For me, I can not put something on my hair that can cause product build up and not shampoo. Hence, for me, co-washing never worked with regular conditioners and deep treatments. I have to use a formulated cleanser or my hair will be gross. But, my initial comment wasn't to you. I made it in case someone come across my comment when going through the drought that I was going through a few years ago.

[@NekiCakes]

Rogue E Of course, as I stated in the video everyone’s hair is different finding your recipe is key. Also, I respond to the majority of the comments under my video even if it’s a suggestion, but honestly your comment came off more as a question than a suggestion.

[@curlynella1011]

You make a lot of since and we have a lot in common in terms of washing once a week and knowing that water is our friend. I just washed someone get a deva cut and she applied the products after by taking it through with her hair turn upside down and her hair was up and not hanging down and I was like she should have did it down so the curls can be a lot more define and downward but apparently she is a certified deva stylist🤷🏽‍♀️ Even people in the comments of this video was saying her hair should have been a lot more defined. Then you verifying it should always be applied downward which I always do💯 had me wondering why people with longer hair is always up. I'm like my hair isn't even as long as yours and hangs down. You would think they would have common sense but nope!

I don't know about high porosity or low porosity. What I do know is that my hair is spongy and like cotton super frizzy. It loves water and it behaves best when I co-wash every other day, layer conditioner and oil to seal. Problem is the defined look doesn't last.

[@NekiCakes]

Noni Dorsey it seems that you know a lot about your hair, all you need now is figuring out if your high to low. If you look into the definitions of porosity you will get your answer, and it seems like you could be high. High porosity soaks up moisture but can’t hold onto it for long. Deep conditioning with a hair steamer is a great tool for frizzy dry hair. Hair can get clogged easy, Try less cowashing, add prepoo to your regimen & shampoo sometimes. Be mindful of the ingredients you are using to moisturize. A leave-in, hair milk, setting lotion/mousse,defining/curl Cremes, natural brand gels work great for our hair
