I'd love for you to do a video about how to keep your hair fresh after a workout and/or how to best get rid of the ponytail bump! I work out 4-5 days a week and I want to do better with my hair maintenance, but don't want to do more damage. Thanks!

I could cry tears of happiness. I was currently on year three of having extreme oily flat hair in the back of my scalp and top of my head. I tried everything. Asked multiple salon artists. Bought at least 7 different shampoos all between $50-$100, watched other hair washing KZfaq videos that swore lathering in your hands was the key, and nothing worked. I thought maybe it was postpartum hormones and my next step was to go to a doctor. I am so grateful I found this! This is the first time in years I had a healthy clean scalp throughout my entire head. If you have to wash three times, do it! Thank you thank you thank you for literally saving me with this gift of a video 🙏🏽

It’s embarrassing to admit that I wasn’t washing or even drying it properly my whole life , these simple tips literally have my hair back growing like nothing ever happened !! It’s only been a couple months !! I’m grateful I found your videos ! You are like a hair god !!! Thank you 🙏🏽

Professor, you saved my scalp and my sanity!!!! :) For over TEN YEARS, I have suffered chronic itchy scalp. My skin literally crawled, and I scratched it so hard. I tried everything. I had to constantly tell my preschool coworkers that I didn't have lice, but just chronic itchy scalp. A doctor gave me a topical steroid. Just temporary relief. Well, I was about to have a scalp biopsy, but I found your video in time. I started dividing my hair in quadrants like you show, and smashed that shampoo into those partings to clean the scalp really well. Then I started shampooing twice as you said. My itchy scalp is GONE. All along it was just me washing wrong. A decade of suffering past! I thank you, and my scalp thanks you!!! :)

I'm also one of those women that apparently don't know how to wash their hair. Went out and bought the redkin volume shampoo and conditioner you suggest for fine hair, as well as following the rest of the routine you suggested and OMG I noticed a difference immediately and how my hair felt and looked. Now I'm binge watching all of your videos so I can feel like a pro. 🤣 But seriously, PLEASE do a video on conditioner because I'm probably doing that wrong too. 😅

Here to report I have tried Chris’s hair washing technique ONCE so far (yesterday) and it’s already made a very noticeable difference in my day 2 hair today. Usually, it gets so greasy and oily by now that no amount of dry shampoo can help, so I throw it back in a bun. However, I’m proudly wearing it down today! I think one of the biggest things I was doing wrong was emulsifying the shampoo in my hands first. I followed the advice of another hair/beauty KZfaqr for an entire year and it did nothing for my hair. This man’s advice made an impact in 24 hours. Shampoo KungFu is the way to go! Can’t wait to see the results from continued use of his trinity routine! ❤️

I Have to have scheduled showers (Tuesdays and Fridays) because of depression, but I now realize I haven't been washing my hair properly lol Thank you for being so through in something seemingly so simple

50 ye old black female here. Just learning how to wash my hair properly! Thank you!

My Dad was an hairdresser back in the 60's and 70's. He taught me exactly this way of washing your scalp and hair. He used to say "scalp first and foremost! And don't forget the nape!" 🙏🏻😁💚

I've been fighting my fine oily hair for 61 years. Been trying your method for the last month & I have to say, wow! What a difference this technique made. Also started using leave in conditioner. Where have you been all of my life?!?!! Hahaha!

I use cheap shampoo and conditioner, I wash the right way and can still go 2 weeks until my hair is greasy, I also comb my hair and don't use any products or heat, I use a deep conditioner once a month, I use a leave in conditioner once in awhile, my hair is medium to thick and a bit wavy

I’ve been doing this exact technique for years and it truly works! I last 5-7 days between washes if I don’t work out and sweat profusely. I always think thought it was strange my first wash would have no suds, but the second is when everything really foams up. So good to know that’s normal! Love your videos Chris, keep it up!

Just tried your routine with the shampoo you recommended and at the first wash I didn’t get any suds. Then I washed it again like you said and THERE WERE SO MANY SUDS OMG IT WAS FOAMING. I was literary mind blown and my hair feels so freaking clean. Thank you so much, Chris! Pls make a video for conditioner because now I don’t know if I’m doing that right 😂

That soap and lather tip is what I’ve been waiting for my whole life 🤩

I have thin hair and can go 4 days without washing it I honestly thought it wasn’t much but this video made me feel better thank you for the awesome advice

Wow just found your channel and am blown away about how well you deliver the content with no bs. Great work! Keep it up!

Seriously, I'm 60 years old and your videos are changing my life! The way you describe how to get the shampoo to your scalp is SO helpful. I'm up to about 3-4 days between washing, and every other wash is done with a co-wash. I've just started this routine, but it's helping me spend less time on styling. I DO find myself having to do little "fresh ups," just little fixes because I wear a ponytail and/or clip fairly regularly.

This is how I’ve been washing my hair for some years, glad to know I am not that clueless lol. Before I washed this way I always found that I had some residue and even a smell, until I started actually scrubbing and applying it directly to the scalp. I like your content, it’s well explained and to the point. New subscriber!

Just showed my daughter this video. She was so happy and also surprised that the other videos we have been watching were not giving us this important information.

Thrilled you came into my feed today. Interestingly, I've been doing the soap application as described for years (to the scalp, etc.) but had no idea about the lather/suds aspect - it was a lightbulb moment when you explained that. Thank you a thousand times over.

Wow! I’m so glad I found your channel. I’ve binged watched all you videos and learnt so much. I’ve even recommend you channel to my friends. You are amazing and you’ve changed so many peoples hair game. THANK YOU 🙏

I’m in my third week of the ‘healthy hair routine’ and it is phenomenally amazing!!!!!!🌹Thanks so much!!

Thank you BP your the best in the hair care space on youtube, always giving the best advice with no BS.

You’re a great teacher with tried and true info. I have learned so much from your videos. I wish I’d found them sooner. ❤

Thank you so much Chris for your directions on how to wash your hair and the products to use has made a major difference in how my hair comes out. Such a major difference in how my hair comes out after blowing it out. Also cleaned my brushes which was an added factor.

This really works! I have been trying this method, and my scalp feels so clean and my hair is so soft. Thank you!

Chris, the techniques you share are always SO helpful and your videos are incredibly informative!! Just received my first Hair Box and am very excited to try all your great products. THANK YOU!

I love your videos!!! I am 55 and was really struggling with my hair...I "thought" it was age..but then I found your videos and discovered that I have been hijacking my hair for my entire life...doing everything wrong!! 3 weeks into using your techniques, upgrading my products and I literally have a totally different head of hair! I can't thank you enough! Hopefully when I'm in Florida next I can book an appt with you!! Would love to meet you and give you a big hug!!!

I havent changed any products yet, just changed to your washing technique and you feel the difference right away! Wow!

This man is just out here casually changing lives on KZfaq. Thank you!!!!! Simple, effective advice and great delivery. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Thank you so much Chris! It is the first time when I am taught how to properly wash my hair 💛

Thank you Chris. Another wonderful video. You changed the way I wash my hair. Please make a video how to apply the conditioner and the leave in conditioner ( ordered it after watching you). Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with us.

I could listen to you all day absolutely fantastic I have natural curly hair and my have you taught me some valuable lessons strangling before washing with fingers gentley plus not to use loads of product. I could go on thank you for the videos on you tube amazing thank you so much at last I can deal with my hair instead of dragging it out 😉

I go about 3-5 days between washes. Since I started to bleach my hair I needed to figure out a way to not have to wash my hair daily or even every other day as to not have to dry it out. Using my fingertips like they do at the salon has really helped. If I don’t get a good sudsing, I rinse and wash again to make sure all the oil and dirt is out. I use lots of dry shampoo between washes. I know you knock drugstore products but I swear by suave clarifying shampoo! I use it at least once weekly and it gets my hair super clean but not dry.

Hi! I have struggled to keep long hair for over a decade. After binge-watching your videos I have learned that I have been doing terrible things to my hair. I am going to try your method and see if it works. I went to Ulta today to pick up some hair products and will begin my journey tomorrow. I am going to give myself a year 😃 Thank you for sharing much-needed information!

Really informative! I have fine oily hair with dry ends and I wash my hair inconsistently in a range of every 3-7 days (it really just depends on how often i leave my home since i wfh). Watched your video on how to help combo hair as well, going to do some research and product shop this week! I had given up on trying to maintain my oily scalp + dry hair but you've given me hope!

Chris, you are AMAZING!! I’m so excited to try this out! I have a feeling I will feel the difference just by the fact, that you are saying different things than all the „gurus“ I have been listening to in the field and that brought zero results. THANK YOU!!

Amazing I am 46 and did't know this routine. I have fine and long hair and no volume at all. I used this technique the first time and what a difference. My hair was softer and had a lot more volume. thanks for your advice!

Oh, Chris, how I love your videos! TOTALLY A GAME CHANGER in your and Leslie's words! Big hugs! ❤

Take care of your health! And thank you for all the great hair advice.

This video CHANGED my life!

I used to have to wash my hair every day, two at a push. I’m now in week 3 of your program and now can go up to 4 days 😮 you’re the real MVP. Thanks!

I enjoy your videos. Simple tips and techniques but so important. I always make sure I’m using a clean pillow case several times per week. Also, remembering to clean brushes, combs and rollers on a regular basis.

i been doing this for a couple months now ,and oh my lord my hair never been this good is soooo soft and shiny my friend love to play with my hair now ,is was that soft is takes me no time at all to takecare of my hair not too much product ,make sense and effective i change my whole routine to a professional product and i was able to go 3 day between wash and it saved me so much money (i have fine hair) is a amazing! my life is so much easier thank you so so so much!! love your content pls never stop making vdo!!!❤❤❤

Hi Chris, you're fantastic, I'm watching all of your videos! I learnt a lot, thank you so much. With my hair type I can go between 5 and 7 days depending on the physical exercise I do, however I noticed this timeframe really changes when I go in more polluted places. Where I live the air is pretty clean and when I visit friends and family in cities that are more polluted my hair get really affected and therefore need to be washed more frequently. Thank you so much for your great work!!

Excellent instructions on getting clean hair! Now everything makes sense! Thank you!!🙌

I just tried your hair wash routine and my hair got so soft I can't thank you enough for this❤️❤️

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I still cannot believe how incredibly easy it has been to select the best products and to create the best routine for my hair. You don't even know how many "natural hair care" products I'm about to hand out. And they are not cheap in South Africa. I cannot believe how much money I have sent on products that promised so much but that delivered absolutely nothing. Thank you for offering us tried and tested products so that we don't have to go out to spend big money on bad products. I've been done with "natural" products but my hair is now thriving even been (and INSTANTLY) using professional hair products. I recall Leslie saying in one video that you would immediately know whether certain new products worked for your hair. I was skeptical... But Leslie was not lying. ❤

This men saved my life. Thank you

I just received your fine hair box (shampoo, conditioner, leave-in conditioner and hair oil), and I am going to see if I can stop washing my hair every single day, which I’ve been doing my entire life. Now that I’m 53, have had some medical issues and am post-menopause, my fine hair breaks SO easily that I have a halo of broken hairs all around my head, which I hate. I have fairly long hair, and it also tangles very easily, which it never did when I was younger. I am hoping that using all your recommended products and washing my hair less often will help. Thank you so much for all the fantastic advice!

I am washing it every 5.5 days now! amazing, I am saving water, heating, time and products! Thanks

I can go 9 days between shampoos now with two refreshing water washes in between. I do daily scalp massage and scalp oil before the water washes. I use the Olaplex Hair Oil on the ends every other day. Using all of your techniques my " fine but lots of it" shoulder length hair looks better and more luscious than ever. My routine is: 3 days natural, 3 days heat styled with a hot brush or beachy waves curling iron, and 3 days up in a clip. I air dry to 80% before using a styling tool.

Wow, that was really helpful. I was having itching and grease dandruff scalp problem, due to medication that applicated right on head skin. But seems like with this method of washing my scalp feels much more calm. Still had some dandruff but not so big and flaky (so i'm not constantly stressed about it). Also hair is not overdried but feels so clean. Thank you!

Such great information! I learned so much!

This makes so much sense! Can’t wait to try 😃

I’ve literally struggled with my hair until now! Fine frizzy hair now gone! Bought all the product recommendations. And I will never use anything else. Thank you so much!!!! ❤

Hello Chris, would you be able to make an updated video in the future to show how much shampoo to apply in each area, or how much of a pump I should put on my palm before applying. I’m a bit worried of putting too much or too less on my scalp

it works!!!! Thank you soooooooo much! I got from washing every seccond day to washing every 4/5 days and my hair en head feels so much better. Thnx for advising without pushing for selling products! Keep up the good work :D

Thank you for this video! Excited to try washing my hair the Right way after watching this. Would like your thoughts about Biolage shampoo? It use to be only found in hair salons, now you can get it anywhere.

Omgosh I’ve been washing my mids and ends with shampoo! No wonder, my hair feels so dry after I wash and blow dry it. I’ve been using olaplex and my hair feels a lot healthier. I usually shampoo twice since I only wash it once a week. I’m going to try only wash my roots next week when I wash my hair. Thank you.

Your videos make me very calm. Five years ago I started having problems with my hair and became completely obsessed with it. Everyone said something different, recommended different products and I am now thousands of euros further when it comes to products (10% of which work really well for me) but I want to thank you. You lighten it for me and I hope to get my hair back with your tips.

Hi Chris!You have changed my life!Thank-you so much for teaching me how to shampoo, condition,leave-in condition,hair oil and everything else!My hair hasn’t been this healthy since the ‘80s (and I’m 50 now!)I am now able to grow my hair(or at least be able to see it growing)and am very grateful and excited🌹Thanks again!

Amazing how everything in life that seems to be something so basic has steps that work out for the best.

I started double washing a couple years ago with professional products and it has helped. My hair feels really fluffy and clean right after I shampoo but within a few hours the oils start coming through and my roots flatten out. And I’m a bit of a compulsive hair toucher so once the process starts I make it worse. Did I also mention I’m a chronic face sweater as well? 😂 I’m going to try this method. If it works it will be a miracle.

I just want to thank you! Ive gone from washing my hair every day to being able to only wash it every 4-5 days after trying your way! Thank you so much for your videos and helping us understand our hair ❤

Absolutely informative....thanks Chris🙏❤

Totally agree about back and forth motion. Helps with tangles. But I’m not nearly patient enough to apply shampoo the way he describes. I apply whatever’s in my palms to my whole head and then lather in sections.

I'm really glad I found this video! The technique he recommends is legit. I put the shampoo on my hand (I dont spread in on my hand at all) and press it down with a little pressure on my scalp and then start spreading and rubbing it all over the scalp with my fingers. My hair used to get that oily look 2-3 days after i washed it. Now, it's been 4 days since my last wash and my hair still actually looks good, minimally oily. I believe i can go another 2-3 days before washing it again, making it a whole whopping week between washes. Also I use a gentle, sls free shampoo and lukewarm water.

I love this info ! Thank you

I tried this technique with the Nioxin shampoo (used it for over 3 years for my fine hair, don't want to swtich), and I DIDNT KNOW IT LATHERS! Thank you)))

Thank you very much for your recommendations! I live in Thailand, with the humidity and working out, I didn't think my medium hair can last 5 days! But I worked! Why no one teaches this in school! 🤣

What do you feel about people who don’t wash everyday but they wet hair and just use conditioner? I feel like this go 3 days without washing only works well for people with longer or thicker hair. I have fine wavy/curly/frizz prone hair (and less of it now that I’m 50ish) but it’s on the shorter side with some layers so when I sleep it’s sticking up all over. I won’t do anything with my hair when I’m working from home and not going anywhere but if I do go out then often I wash with conditioner and then let air dry wavy or style.

I would love to see a video on how to detangle hair (wet vs dry?) and which tools are best to avoid breakage, combs, brushes etc

I damaged my hair when I was in Florida for a while…..salt water dried and damaged it and it broke off 😥. I have fine hair and I’m 54. I’m going to try your routine and see what happens. Thankyou, I’ll let u know how it goes. Luv ur videosI’m glad I found your channel.😃👍

love your channel!! learned so much!!

I ordered the redken injection products with the ulta sale. I think your link was sold out. Got a gwp also. I'm concerned about some ingredients, but I'll try 😁 I have fine hair, stopped coloring about six years ago. White /silver/ platinum. Used to be very dark, long ago. Stopped blow drying 7 to 8 years ago. I get compliments all the time. I have just about no split ends. Love your very detailed info. Thank you. Got the Moroccan oil mask. Hsir dresser saw gray in my hair in my early teens lol. It is what it is

I probably say this on all your videos, but I love your videos. I’ve been losing more hair since having covid, (I think that’s the reason) but I think following your hair are advice is helping look after what I have.

You’ve helped me so much.

thank you so much for this!! im so tired of washing my hair everyday! and i really didnt know why this was happening!

I am loving your videos! I bought everything you recommended for fine hair. Question: how often to use the Redken clarifying shampoo?

I shampoo 3x week but with different shampoos. 1 regular shampoo from Hempz. Another detox shampoo and finally a purple shampoo for brass. Not all at once but throughout the week

Can you please do a video on nighttime hair routine..such as pillowcases- does it matter? Fo straight hair that you say should go three days between flat ironing - wear. Hear down for bed? Or up? Long medium naturally straight hair

I have done Chris's washing technique. It works

I cannot believe what just happened! Usually my second day hair is a greasy mess and absolutely requires dry shampoo. No exceptions. I tried this way of washing my hair and can I just say, I’m in total shock! No oil yet and I have fine hair and an oily scalp. THANK YOU! THANK YOU soo much! I am in awe ❤

Thank you and great job!

I workout every day and live in the tropics. My head sweats so my hair is dripping wet by the end of my workout salty sweat. I have fine hair. I wash everyday. It would be really gross not to. But I will use these techniques to wash for sure and I always use professional products and lots of masks to keep my hair in good condition

Im washing my hair with a shampoo for babies. And i love it. Makes my hair soft and shiny

I adjusted the technique of washing my hair just the way you advice and I can go now for at least 4 days so that’s awesome 🎉❤

This video is SO helpful. Apparently, I've been washing my hair incorrectly for 45 years 🥺

Thanks for the tips! I've been struggling for years with the back of my head being oily and itchy. Turns out I just need to change how I'm washing my hair 😅

Could you do a (short) video on conditioner? Should I apply it from the roots or the middle?

Thank you this is helpful I’m having a hard time getting my hair clean

Thank you so much for this! I’m lucky to go two without washing as my hair looks greasy. I’ll have to invest in a good shampoo too! X

I’d love some advice for those of us using a shampoo bar and conditioner! This is such amazing info but curious how it translates to a shampoo bar.

You are the best. Thank you very much. Спасибо, успехов!!!

Love all your videos! EXTREMELY informational and easy to watch. I'm learning souch every video. I wish I could work at your salon! I'm currently living in Oklahoma, but I'd love to move to Florida!

Thank you Chris! 😊

I always used double shampoo technique because I found that the ladder was so weak because my hair wasnt "wet" enough the first time I wash it then after washing out it always ladders ALOT. Glad to realise I was at least washing my hair party right, will be trying this technique as to how to apply shampoo for the next wash!! Excited for the results!

I love your videos. I started to follow too. I watch a video where you say the way to keep your hair perfect for days. But I can't find it. Could you do one specifically with the tips to keep the hair perfect? With the clear spring type scrunchies and the silk hat and all that?
