Water Only Hair Wash Regimen (4C Hair) 31 day review.

I eliminated ALL products and combs and brushes for 31 days. I used absolutely NOTHING on my hair but water for this duration. I would rinse in the morning before work, ring out and let air dry for the day then do it all over the next morning. No twist outs, no braids, nothing!
I LOVE it! I cannot keep my hands out of my hair. It is super duper soft, not tangly at all and the texture is amazing! I forgot what texture my hair was from all these years of putting junk in it.
I will continue to rinse only until further notice, adding only certain oils and I will apply conditioner only before a sew-in.
I love it and I think you guys should give it a try. My hair didn't grow leaps and bounds unfortunately for me but I had improvements in other areas. My scalp is sooo clear and clean!

Straight to the point-I love it!!

I'm super late but thank you. =)

[@Sugarprincess9513]

How ironic is it that i would be looking up natural hair videos and actually come across my fam bam Roni! Hey Roni!!!!! :)

[@Rumqueen]

Petrina Thomas Wow, that is crazy.

[@efster493]

Ive been looking for informal videos that are detailed easy to understand this is by far one of the best to pop on my feed its so refreshing to see something real on here so many people lying to get paid on here . Are you still doing water washing now ? How is it?

[@Adriennea1]

I'm a fellow SDA!!! You've got an new subbie!

[@brittanynunley4043]

Felt good to here you acknowledge the Sabbath. ..I tried just rinsing my TWA today but I did seal with oil...I'm a newbie to it all so I'll be on the look out

[@keniabender6225]

Thanks for you video! Love seeing fellow SDA's :) and I'm also on the Water Only Washing method - not planning to go back to traditional shampoo & conditioners ever!

[@nidhishah9]

How?

[@planetfirebrand]

keep it up. I've been no poo water only for 5 months now and have only washed my hair with shampoo once. I've found that my hair is now softer and although it can be oily it still looks ok. Of course the oiliness is probably the result of putting apricot oil in my hair but I do this because if I don't my hair gets dry without it. your hair looks great keep going

[@sherriscott4411]

OOHHH WE HAVE THE SAME 4C Texture. I have fine strands that pop easy and low porosity. Gonna start my water washing today myself and try it for 30 days and see if I like it. great info in this video thanks!!!

[@Rumqueen]

Thanks for watching! Hope you're loving it.

[@karlineebanks]

I'm a SDA too!! Another new subbie! Trying the water only method..

[@Rumqueen]

Karline Ebanks Good luck! =)

[@natural_beauty-ke6hp]

My experiences were similar to yours. My hair is better than it was using a ton of products for sure. My hair has grown some but not a lot. I will definitely continue with the method. I do use light oil on my ends and occasionally flax seed gel. Since they're natural products they rinse out well with water only. There aren't many people posting videos on the method, I look forward to seeing your results in the future.

[@monye9963]

Your hair is absolutely gorgeous

[@Rumqueen]

Tavia E You think so? Thank you! =)

[@torinakins]

its funny that people think all 4c type hair is the same which is why i dont like this method of hair typing. my nieces hair is like yours in that it does not tangle at all. when i first started doing her hair i was surprised how soft her hair was and how easy it glided through the comb. because she doesnt have a defined curl patter it is assumed that her hair is hard and difficult to comb.

[@Rumqueen]

Yes, the hair typing is not super dead on accurate but it's very close. It gives people an idea of their hair type and how to manage it but yes! I'm surprised at how mine didn't tangle doing this method! Very pleasantly surprised and yes, my grandma tells me every chance she gets how dry my hair looks. 😣😂 She'd be surprised if she touched it though. It's butter soft and only tangles after having cornrows.

[@MrsAChery]

THank you!!! Im considering this for my daughter as my hair is locked. But i will be including more massaging of my scalp especially before retightenings and such. Thanx again!!

[@Rumqueen]

I hope you tried it out and liked it. =)

[@constancegomez351]

I just found your video! Love it..I have product overload

[@Rumqueen]

@@constancegomez351 I'm glad you found me. I can't believe this video still gets views. Have you tried water rinse only before?

[@constancegomez351]

@@Rumqueen no

[@MsNaijaPrincess]

I've been doing the water only method for almost 6 weeks. When I started my hair was waist length and breaking. It wouldn't grow past waist and I kept having to cut it back because it was splitting and breaking. Now my hair is thickening up and is healthier and stronger. I'm finally retaining length. I have noticed that my scalp is increasingly tender but that's the only down side. I love this method. I think I'll stick with it and hopefully I'll achieve my length goals.

[@Rumqueen]

Yayyyy! I had the sensitivity issue too.

[@nidhishah9]

Which water uh used hard or soft

[@Andromeda531]

Invest in a wooden comb, they help to spread the sebum and they reduce breakage...I love mine and just brought two more. They can be costly but they are fully worth every penny !! I am fine 4c as well x

[@Andromeda531]

Wow...calm down my dear. I just wanted to share some advice..if not taken that's fine as we all finger detangle too, but if combs are used just suggesting what the best option would be. My goodness you'd think I was cursing the woman for the way your going on. #Issues Considering I didn't comment on you channel I would appreciate some silence.

[@Rumqueen]

Wooden comb? Hmm. I will definitely have to see if I can find one and maybe just have it for those rare occasions.

[@Andromeda531]

Yes my dear, get a good one...and use it instead of plastic. Rare is best but Wood is better than plastic. I have a video on my channel showing the comb I brought :)

[@taraquinch1256]

G_Vegan I have two nice wooden combs but they didn't really work for me either but I think it's because my hair is extremely curly and the curls snap when I use any type of comb unless it really wide and my hair is soaking wet with conditioner. I prefer finger detailing. Curious to experiment with water the water only method though .

[@GreenteaFaerie]

Omg, your inspiring me right now

[@wenda_loves_Cookie]

Happy Sabbath! Love your video!

[@GoodnessGracious...]

SDA's I love it! Happy Sabbath 2 u 2!

[@mamoyoT]

Did you say SDA. Happy Sabbath. Just about to wash my hair and get ready for Sabbath.x

[@s.green-lea8612]

please do more updates! im new to this method (1 week in lol)

[@Babyface7024]

Happy Sabbath! Do you see any growth?

[@cassydck]

Hi, I stumbled on your video and was wondering how it is going with your water only hair washing routine so far? I saw this a year or so ago with a Caucasian lady but was not sure if it would work on my hair type. I took the plunge two days ago due to my husband loving me with my hair worn out. There are not many naturals who follow this method it seems. I appreciate any further advice you have.

[@Rumqueen]

Hey! I posted an update video a few weeks ago. I'm still in love with this method. And I hate calling it a method because it's such a natural and normal thing to do. I don't think I will ever go back to products or combs. Maybe a couple times a year for deep condition or something but that's it.

[@cassydck]

I am in love with it too. I was wondering how it would work since I wear a lot of box braids, we will see after my take down in a few weeks. Thanks for your videos. :) I will keep following your progress.

[@sarai2sarah734]

+CassieK Cooper hey I wear box braids a lot for years and only did this with them in and my hair always responded beautifully. it grew quicker too. I have 4c hair idk if that helps

[@susuilu]

afro hair doesnt actually need products it needs the right technique of care for it to grow.

[@sitaramichell2325]

Can you elaborate

[@JujusOracleMsgs]

I'm starting this today. What do you put in your hair after washing? Also how often do you wash

[@Rumqueen]

Hey! Good luck! I think you'll like it. Up until recently, I didn't put anything in my hair afterwards. I didn't do anything to my hair except wet it. =)

[@Rumqueen]

...Oh! I was rinsing daily. I love it.

[@ahabahshiloh]

Thanks for sharing. Do you preen also? Did you reach full sebum coverage?

[@Rumqueen]

Hello, I don't preen but I thought about implementing that next time.

[@ahabahshiloh]

You definitely should! Preening is really helping me to get the sebum to the ends of my strands quicker. I message and scritch my scalp before I rinse my hair with the water. While I'm in the shower I unravel one section at a time.I normally scritch while the water is running over the section. Then I finger detangle and then smooth the sebum down my strands. My hair has never been healthier. :)

[@s.green-lea8612]

ahabahshiloh you should do a video

[@ledellemondmond2200]

What kind of sew in weave do you have in at the end of the video?

[@Rumqueen]

It's Kinky Curly hair from R&J Goddess Virgin hair. www.rjvirginhair.com

[@immastar1113]

i believe the reason why you are losing hair is because its in plaits! Sebum can't travel down plaits!...... my thought

[@skorpyanj]

New subbie

[@gmogottago7746]

You are pretty.

[@Buttergirla]

I think it's the water that produces more sebum, I don't believe it has any thing to do with the amount of product u put in your hair, sebum doesn't just "kick in" just cause u dont use products lol!!

[@Rumqueen]

Anayah Harris I believe it does and so does science but tomato tomàto.
