Hi! I have salt and pepper hair, with all that comes with it. Is there something about this specific issue in the guide?

well she recommended a product that has many ingredients that are linked to cancer, dna damage, and birth defects so maybe be more careful with who you are putting your trust into

​@@MadeleineLouiseDiRosaThat's like every product lol

@@Luvxcali2 not clean products...

@@MadeleineLouiseDiRosa you could probably search anything and add cancer at the end of it and no doubt lists of claims that it causes cancer potentially will pop up

That's a lot of trust in a random person 😂😂

oh yes!!! i love it so much the way it has 5+ ingredients that cause cancer, dna damage and birth defects!!

What oil do you use? I’ve been trying to figure out how to repair my damaged hair and I keep hearing things like “use oil” but I don’t even know where to start 😅

​@@rainy_day9 coming from an herbalist and a transitioner myself- rosemary oil, jamaican black castor oil, jojoba oil, almond oil, mafura oil, pumpkin seed oil, soybean oil, argan oil, and lavender oil are amazing for damage reverse!! and if you want a trustworthy blend, the brand miss jessie's has a mafura oil blend that i have used to the last drop three times. and the mielle oils are all really good too!!

@@rainy_day9 Sorry for the late reply! I use the bonding oil from olaplex after I wash my hair and I use the coconut miracle oil from ogx before I wash my hair as a pre-shampoo treatment

@@rainy_day9 You can use the ogx miracle oil one after you wash your hair too! Just play around with it and find what works best :)

But it can also be because you hair doesn’t have enough protein ???

There’s a small version that’s only $29 it can be purchased for a cheaper price on Mercari eBay etc.

@@AyyoShyGurlTvthey have the smaller size at Sephora too 😊

Did it make your hair shiny?

I’ve used K18 products for a year now and my hair has never looked and felt so unhealthy 😢 Massive waste of money.

@@rchvbzSame thing happened to me🥲

the hair oil is like $7 and its AMAZING it smells amazing. the loreal everpure bond strengthening concentrate is apparently a dupe for k18 but i havent found it where i live so idk for sure. pantene miracle rescue is also a good dupe for the last item :)

Good to know, thanks. I got the Pureology purple bottle too and don't get the hype. It did nothing. I preferred the Redkin anti snap by far. I'll try the Biology.

That leave in is like marmite. Loads of people love it and loads of people hate it.

stinks?? Maybe you got a bad batch? I have it and it doesnt smell at all

Anyone having trouble with the biolage orange/gold packaged shampoo? Maybe it’s my conditioner but idk. My hair is breaking like crazy

Finally someone who said it, I HATE the smell of it too, yuck 🥲

You may want to incorporate a good hair conditioner or hair mask in your haircare routine, and then seal the moisture in your hair with coconut oil (after it dries in the air). This is the method that worked for me with coconut oil

🎉🎉🎉 What was it???

lol arent they in the middle of a massive lawsuit? one of their products was causing cancer

it literally has allegations against it for hair loss. i do not trust the brand there are better products than that oil

This one isn't Redkin it's k18- use on wet hair in lieu of conditioner (leave in- don't rinse)

Treatments are not conditioners. You need to ensure to use conditioners as well ( A moisture one not a repair one)

Joico hydrosplash shampoo and conditioner has done miricles for my dry hair!

Try one at a time maybe and see how you get on?

Try using products from the same brand only

just apply it to your mids and ends a few hours before washing your hair and then shampoo twice and wash like normal! applying oil to your hair before washing is great to help protect the ends from being too stripped. you can also put a few drops in your hair after washing as well if you’d like :)

also when applying it after washing i would recommend applying it when your hair is still damp to help it sit in your hair better and look shiny and soft rather than too greasy

There’s a dup called Revolution Hair R Peptide that costs around 15.00? Apparently it works just as well as K18. Abbey did a review of it.

L’Oréal bond repair pre-shampoo treatment!

Great questionK im wondering the same

Afaik silicones will coat your hair, kind of like plastic. So it looks nice and shiny but stops moisture going through Edit: also not all oils will sink into hair. Some just coat it as well. (Try pure squalane)

@@doomnoises i thought so too, thats why i wonder why she uses silicone oil as a pre shampoo treatment...

I see now as it f*##d up My hair bad too it’s terrible shit

30mins is good.

Is this an oil mixed with silicones or a pure oil? We don’t have that brand where I live

The molecule in Argan oil is smaller and penetrates deeper for repair. Coconut oil is too big of a molecule and only adds shine to hair.

It's fine! It's like redken bonding but I think the redken is a bit faster at working to repair your hair but they both do the same things! 😊 Don't be scared

It's like you take it personally

I thought i was the only one. My hair and skin doesn't like coconut oil. I get plenty of dry shedding it make my hair feel weird hard like.

@@bellaapple2166 My hair gets wiry, more frizzy, and dirty fast. I used a body moisturizer with coconut oil during the winter. As soon as the weather got warm I was surrounded by this putrid smell. Realized it was the moisturizer - maybe doesn’t mix with my body chemistry. Using one with Shea butter now. No smell!

@@ggggglllll7129 Yea I use products with Shea butter and my hair is so soft and feels strong.

It's argan oil for me. I wonder why Abbey would imply that these products would work for all but I guess it is the video format that doesn't allow much variation.

It sucks to be honest. The only good thing about it is that if you don't have a ton of severe breakage, you don't need it. (Abbey even went as far as to say in a recent video that you don't need it if you don't get your hair bleached or colored.)

@@Melon29813 is there anything that can be used as a sub for k18 like something cheaper

@@vickie8329 If I'm being honest, I don't think anything works quite like K18 from how people have talked, but if I remember correctly Abbey has talked about possibly stopping K18 and seeing if her hair will look the same with the Living Proof Triple Bond Complex Leave-In hair treatment. That is quite a lot coming from her. So yeah it might not repair damage, but it seems to work so well that she will consider just using it to see how it works alone. (It's still not cheap at $45, but it's cheaper than K18.) Otherwise if you still don't want to spend that, there are some things you can change as far as overall hair care that can help, and there are good shampoos and conditioners for this too. (L'Oreal's bond strengthening shampoo comes to mind. It's really good imo.) EDIT: I remembered Abbey did a review on the Revolution R-peptide leave in mask, and while it's not exactly a K-18 dupe, it is similar to Olaplex, and might actually have some ability to repair the hair. (She didn't test it long enough to really find out though) She did like the way it made her hair feel. It's only like $12.

​@Vickie I love everything Living Proof!! Their hair care line, mud mask line, and self care line... yum!!It's SO good!!

No!!!! Never!!!

Same I had better luck with organic coconut oil instead…

some people say u can have hair loss from Covid effect?? Stress?? Hormones ?? I stoped taking my birth control a year or couple ago & it was around that time I noticed a lot of hair loss during brushing after or in the shower & I BARELY shed before ): I don’t know what to do I’ve been using less products & stuff with sulfates/silicones & it definitely was not as bad my last two showers but I’m still concerned ),:

Look look into curly girl method approved products. Even if your hair isn’t wavy, curly. Etc. Avoid sulfates, silicones, drying alcohols in your products. Figure out your hair type and porosity and go from there.. there’s always a reason for hair loss and breakage/dry hair… figure out why. And try new products, doesn’t work. Move to the next one. If it does work stick with it. Just do some research. Never listen to people with an affiliate link in there videos either lol not everyone’s hair is the same

Use the following products,if you have these hair issues: Severe breakage:k18 Hair that looks & feel Extra dry hair:organix coconut miracle as hot oil treatment before shampooing Tangles hair after washing:pureology 21 conditioner -Not sure if this helps😊

@Sweetlady1916 thanks!

Well that depends what ur hair type is The first two work great on my hair but maybe not others
