🎉Congratulations sistas!!! We honor you 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Thanks Ravi! :-)

Because people don't want truth

Indeed! And anything that challenges most people a teeny tiny bit (fascinating science) makes them feel stupid or bored, and they shut down. Sigh.

Because people prefer watching hair types that aren't theirs as well as being lied to. It is what it is.

Also many times it's the visual for people. They want to see her doing her hair with the advice she's giving. That's how many people are, visual is key for them even if it's helpful information.

Ima do this!!!

You get it. Beautiful hair is an inside job.

I agree. Don't forget to nourish the inside of your. I think that may be that may be reason some of us (including myself) aren't seeing the wanted results after doing all the external hair remedies. Also, ladies let's drink more water and limit the soda and other sugary drinks.

HOW DO YOU MIX THEM. I WANNA TRY....THANHK U

Do you use the store bought aloe Vera juice? I also have been prepooing with onion diy before washing! I also have been using a green tea diy, but haven’t gotten the results I wanted yet. I may just stick to the onion diy and maybe try black rice diy.

Sonda Allen yes! January 28th I’m releasing an e-book! There’s a sign up link in the description box, you’ll be the first to know when it’s released. :-)

Thats so great!!👍🏽

@@CurlyChemistry Blessings, just came across your channel..quick question, is the black rice water used as a scalp n hair daily spritz, a leave in, or a leave in briefly and then wash out?

@@CurlyChemistry Thats my birthday! Also can you do a follow up on black rice water if you haven't already. Love your vids! So informative.

Lakesha Menefee thank you!

I'm going to try this for my high porosity hair....🥰

I used it and think i like it. However we, wondering if it changes roots to a reddish brown color?

@@RIVAHAIRDIVA I have not experienced any color changes at all to my hair after continued use of black rice water rinses. However I definitely understand your concern 💕

blznbrry thank you!! 😆

Hibiscus is bomb!

How do you make your Hibiscus 🌺 water and where do you get the hibiscus from?

Angel Reney I buy it on Amazon. It's also called Jamaica Flower at Hispanic grocery. It's used to make delicious tea, you can rinse your hair with leftovers. lol!

@@Cientxa Thank you so much

Do you have to boil the flower or just pour hot water over?

Awesome! Thank you!

You're so welcome!!! Thanks for watching Tiffany! :-)

😂😂😂😂

Long term affects- over protein to the hair. I love this treatment and there are a few, more than one amazing for the hair -however, moderation when using protein.. hope this helps😀

Thanks Michelle!! :-)

Jenelle D thank you Jenelle! I truly appreciate it! ☺️

Thank you!!

I have the same exact question. I have the same process as you! Just wondering about the frequency. I know every 2 weeks won’t work because I lost hair during that! I’m thinking every 2 weeks

Check grocery stores in your city, if not Amazon has it

Thank you!

Thanks for this....four years ago i used straight rice water on my hair as a final rinse two weeks in a row and ruined my hair. Now i will consider adding n black rice water to shampoo and conditioners.

Happy New Year!! :-)

Great question. Hope she eventually comes back to answer.

Avoid any rice grown in North America. That is where the soil has this issue. Select organic and Asiatic.

Esther Akomeah how do you prepare your black rice ? Do you use it before washing your hair or ask a deep conditioner then rinsing and moisturizing after rinsing from your hair? Thank you

Woman Of God thank you! 😆

My hair tends to split a lot along the hair shaft. If I pull a strand of my hair, I would notice that there are points where its intact, then there's a split, then it's intact. So strange. What can I do to fix this? And can you do a video on using hair grease in your natural hair? I appreciate any response. 🤗

@@CurlyChemistry 😀😀

Thank you!!

A good diet is good yes, but hair treatments/regimens are important to maintaining healthy hair. Even though hair is "dead", it still responds when we neglect it (dry/breakage) or care for it (soft/manageable).

PLEASE don't believe that! I eat a very healthy diet and take herbal supplements from European to Asian to Ayurvedic. I went through a busy season at work where all I had time to do was eat, shower, and sleep during the few hours that I was off everyday. Wash day takes a minimum of 5 hours for my best nourishing routine. And, that's the quick version. It usually takes a full day, sometimes extending overnight into the next day. With no off days in sight, all I could do was wear a satin bonnet literally all day and sleep in it too. I would take it off to let my hair breathe for a few hours. But, eventually, after 3 months of NOT washing my hair, it became dry, tangled and matted. I had no patience to spend hours detangling it so I actually had to cut it. 💇🏾‍♀️ So, please listen to this wise woman, Curly Chemistry. And learn from my experience. You can't neglect your hair. You really DO need to care for your hair in between wash days. Eating a healthy diet alone will NOT sustain healthy hair.

Thank you!! You local health food store should have it or amazon! :-)

@Just K I want to see your hair. Heard lots about fenugreek and black rice water

@@itsmidtrib1569 looks like you can't upload a pic in the reply box, otherwise I'd send you pix. Its been great for my hair. Now I can do wash n gos! Previously it just looked a mess, lol. I don't overdo it tho. I incorporated it into my wash day, didn't do any of the challenges where folks were putting it into their hair every day for a week. I may try a leave in at some point, but just using the liquid either as a rinse between shampoo & conditioner, or as the liquid in making a clay wash has worked great for me.

@Just K would you say these have helped your hair grow? Did it make your hair softer, smoother, shinier? Is it worth it to be consistent with it? Even if it’s just once a week? How was your hair before you started using these? Lol sorry I am just considering if I should do this every time I wash my hair (once a week)

My hair defined more easily and was more manageable. Definitely saw less breakage (RW increases elasticity). That's what i was looking for. Hmmm smoother? I'm not sure I gauged that. But shiny, yes. I'd say coffee oil and the baggy method (putting shower cap over head overnight after oiling scalp) have made my hair the softest its ever been. I did the baggy/coffee oil thing by accident and noticed softer hair immediately so now I do it once or twice a week. Massage in the coffee oil, put a plastic cap over it. Put my SLAP over that (just in case, lol) and go to bed. In the morning take off both and my hair is soft as ever! Before that I can't say I cared about/noticed softness one way or the other.

@Just K Nice! 🙌 I do have coffee oil. I’ll try putting that on my hair but I never leave anything in overnight. I like to wash at night and let it air dry while I sleep. I’ll probably do the fenugreek and black bean method though you don’t have to cook them right?

No rice water should go on low porosity hair. It's too drying and your hair will break, leave rice water alone and focus on moisture!

Yes. There is a woman on here in that age group with waist length hair. She goes by 21 century woman...or something like that.

I was wondering the same thing. I'm in my 50's currently transitioning to natural hair. Relaxers thin your hair out once you get a certain age. I'm glad for the response....let me run 🏃‍♀️ over to that channel....

Awesome!

Try it! Let us know how it works for you! :-)

Yayy! Thank you for subscribing!! :-)

How often you use rice water depends on your hair’s porosity. If you have low porosity hair only uses it every 6-8weeks and make sure to moisturize and seal afterward. If you have high porosity hair you can use it more like once a week or once every two weeks. You can apply it on your scalp if you want but the magic happens when you spray it on your strands. The water can last pretty long if you refrigerate it

@@SpiceRackProductions thanks so much! Very useful :)

You'll see an increase, but if you stop your growth rate will go back to normal.
