Unpopular Opinions About Natural Hair

[@NaturalRaeRae]

🤣🤣Tell em' girl! You were going off on people, weren't you. You tickled me in this video, but I agree with about everything you said, even though I don't like raw oils on my dry hair. I do use products with oils and butters and I definitely use butters for certain styles. Thanks for giving me something entertaining to watch today. Stay safe.

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

Hey girl. The shampoo thing really bothers me. I think it’s giving out incorrect information. Most products used by naturals do have oils and butters. Thank you so much for watching. It’s always a pleasure seeing you in the comments.

Lol. I get tired of comments about my product stash. Like if you're triggered just move on.

[@shelbymcdandan4431]

Great point about protective styling. My hair is fine also and braids and others styles break my hair. And yes!!! Give me your oils and butters. 💯💯

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

No more protective styling for a while girl. My hair is just now starting to look healthier. And it’s a yes to oils and butters for me babe.

[@shelbymcdandan4431]

Did you get a different shelf? I’m always peeking your shelf. Lol. You look cute tonight and love the scarf. 🌸🌸🌸

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

Thanks sis! Nope it’s the same shelf. I can’t even think about trying to move these products to a different shelf.

[@naf3802]

Girl I'm over here 🤣🤣🤣 why they messing with your beauty supply store? I love It and have always complimented on how you should name it. And by the way, your shelves are well organized by brand and I'm having a moment trying to figure out what I don't have on your shelf that I can go buy (product junkie thoughts)😜 And as far as the no oils and butter's, I like using them so much I make my own 😁 there great sealants.

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

Lol girl the haters be trolling me. Before my old IG got hacked they used to message me about my problem and how I’m encouraging consumerism. I definitely have a lot of stuff. If I didn’t keep it organized I wouldn’t know what I have. Oils and butters are here to stay babe.

[@Ladylew122]

Sis you had a lot of things on your mind. Your twists are protective. I rock them. I don’t enjoy tight braids. I will unsubscribe from people going to deep too. See you soon😊!

[@felicia_716]

Girl you had me cracking up 😂 I don't subscribe to the trends either. Never have. I never really used raw oils or butters in my hair. Butters weighs it down and I'm a wash n go girl so oils never had a role. My products definitely have oils tho.

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

Lol glad I could make you laugh. I’m just now trying to get into wash n gos. Wish me luck.

Girl! So you feel my pain.

[@ericaleeora]

I knew I wasn’t the only one. I live in TX and people look at me crazy when I tell them I have trouble retaining moisture in the spring/summer and literally had to cut my hair due to sun damage. This is also why I do not blow dry my hair. My hair gets enough heat as it is, especially during the times when it’s 100+ degrees

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

Living in Arizona I completely get it about sub damage. It gets over 120 out here.

[@shantehale3188]

Hey Myeshia, I fell for quite a few trends also and plenty of products I have bought because they were hyped up and did not do nothing😘💋💋

I definitely got caught up in trends. No proteins, protective styling, no shampoo, etc. I even tried some terrible products.

[@patrecem.9523]

Let me add to that when people say if you use the same product all the time your hair get use to it and stop working. Umm no! If that was the case hair companies would go out of business.

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

Exactly. People come up with the craziest ideas.

[@scortez99]

I mean things can change. So if anything, there’s that chance that the formula of the product can change & so can the hair (i.e protein overload, sun damage, hydra-fatigue, etc…)

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

@@scortez99 I agree that things can change but unless the formula of the product changes or there’s a texture change, I feel that products should generally maintain their performance.

[@kymeishgaston7799]

[@latonya5487]

My high porosity hair MUST have oils, butters grease and whatever else it takes to lock the moisture in for as long as possible. And I live in the HOT SOUTH!!👍😩😂

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

I used to live in Florida and I needed oils even with the humidity. Now I’m in Arizona and my hair will fry without them.

[@jmacknaturalista]

girl i'm with you on the not coloring my hair...i've had highlights before (in my relaxed hair days) and it was cute at first (but ended tragically, lol..the breakage was serious) I've grown to accept my gray strands...AND i don't want to learn a new head of hair, period...I finally feel like i have a grasp on things...for me...coloring would be a set back even if it's cute...because your hair's characteristics change.

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

I colored my natural hair and it started breaking as soon as I moved to Arizona. I’m with you on not wanting to learn a new head of hair. I think your gray hair is beautiful.

[@Brixsy]

The problem is everyone hair is not the same and doesn't react the same to all these products. Garnier silicone free shampoo and conditioner works for me I have no need to deep condition. I don't use leave ins either. If I have to use a gel on soaking wet hair I refuse to purchase. The Curls 5.99 gel works alone just fine for me. When you know what works it becomes so much easier. I don't use clay or rice water and all of that. Hair been flourishing and thicker ever since I started paying attention to my thin 4b-4c hair. Wash and gos only over here. Twists and braids ain't for me.

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

I completely agree with you. You have to do what works for your hair. I don’t think anyone should be able to tell you what to do with your hair. I really want to get into wash n gos.

[@afro-pinionated]

I agree with this whole video 👏🏾!!! I think the people who are against oils and butters never used them right or never properly cleaned their hair 🥴. I love to prepoo but it's definitely not necessary lol. This whole video is a word 👌🏾

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

Thanks girl. I feel like every year a new fad comes out in the natural hair community. Wash your hair and then try an oil or butter. The air out here is so dry if I don’t use oils my hair will literally crumble.

[@angelofthehour777]

[@HealyMeans]

hi myeisha 🤗 this is a great video ... keeping it real with every question * not shampooing hair - i definitely prefer shampoo over cowash, but recently started using a cowash as a prepoo to soften tangles * excessive product stash - i spend my money however i want ... periodt * using different products - i try products from every category for every hair type * protective styling promotes hair growth - i can't keep a regular style for 3 days, let alone a protective style for weeks and months * no oils or butters - i usually make my own. i may not use use them a lot, but i do use them. like you said, many products already include oils and butters * mandatory pre-poo - i used to do this waaaaay back before it had a name. i recently started again, but don't believe its necessary and certainly not mandatory * hair growth products - i dont believe in miracle products that grow your hair to the floor overnight. i agree with overall health regimens inside and out. i like ayurvedic ingredients and products (i mostly make my own) thanks for sharing

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

For some reason not shampooing is making its rounds through the natural hair community. I’m a product junkie and I’m not ashamed. How I spend or why is nobody’s business. I definitely don’t believe in hair growth products and protective styling is not the only way to grow hair. Even though I prepoo most wash days it’s not necessary.

[@marvinandjosh1]

I agree with not using shampoo. I think that’s the worse advice these KZbinrs have been giving. Yes, some are more stripping than others but find one that works for you. There are some gentle shampoos out there, find one. As far as protective styling, I do knotless braids but I don’t do them back to back. I get them about twice a year. The rest of the time, my hair is free.

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

I am a firm believer of shampooing your hair. And yes there are moisturizing shampoos out there. I haven’t tried knotless braids but I am trying to grow my hair while wearing it loose.

[@marvinandjosh1]

@@ConversationsWithAScorpio I think that may be for the best. My sister has fine strands and knotless braids were just too heavy for her strands. Mine are very course so they can handle the added weight.

Ride and Die with oils and brothers too sis 🤍🌸💪🏽🤣

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

I know that’s right!

[@dawnjohnson1635]

Thank you for sharing. I agree with struggling to keep moisture in Arizona. I don't use oils on my hair just on my scalp. A good botanical gel works well for me in the summertime. I also use my hair steamer more in the summer. I also have been using ayurvedic treatments and that has helped a lot with the shedding. I also have started using MSM flakes in my collagen. My plan is to take it for 3 months to see if it helps with hair growth. Honestly I can tell my hair is thicker already. MSM lengthens the growth phase and shortens the shedding phase. That's probably the only miracle supplement that works. The drawback is a you will grow hair everywhere so I constantly have to shave my legs and wax my lip. I actually do like to pre-poo it helps me a lot with tangling and knots. I will keep your posted on the MSM at the end of June. I haven't had my hair braided in years. All I can think about it my edges. 😬

[@ConversationsWithAScorpio]

Definitely keep me posted on the MSM. I like to prepoo my hair for the most part but it’s not always necessary. I tried the Camille rose curl maker and it had my hair feeling so soft and moisturized. Oils are a lifesaver for me.
