I haven’t used oils or butters on my hair/scalp in almost two years. I now have more curl definition, but the biggest change for me was my scalp. I suffered from “scalp psoriasis” for years and used oil religiously on my scalp. I realized that I was literally suffocating my scalp, and not letting it breathe with all the oils. I haven’t seen a flake in almost 2 years. Crazy!

I definitely always feel like people don’t know how much your hair takes in water, when it is properly cleansed! There’s nothing wrong with using oils, however the fear of clarifying shampoos needs to be fixed. I love my creams and butters, but I prefer mousse instead of gels. That feeling of a cast, just doesn’t sit well with my spirit.

I took my daughter to a dermatologist for acne 2 years ago, to improve her skin the dermatologist told me to stop using oil on her hair and she said hair does not need oil, it needs moisture and something to hold that moisture in, like a gel. I didn’t believe her initially but I stopped oil for my daughter’s hair and noticed a huge improvement in her hair. It accepted product better and still looked hydrated. It took me a little longer to try it but after about 6 months I stopped using oil too. Best thing I ever did for my hair.

In 2014 I even shaved my head; my hair was waist length at the time; and a little over 3 years later my hair was back to waist length. I use olive oil and a plastic cap 2-3 times per year as a deep conditioner. There were no steps for me. I literally just wash my hair and leave it out or put it in a bun. I don't use gels either, but I'm sure there are some that are worth using; my skin is personally just intolerant to life in general. Good luck to you

I agree. We all need to try different things and figure out what works best for us. I learned early on in my natural hair journey (began about 10 years ago) that oils are a no no for me. Using oils actually caused me to have dandruff, itchy scalp, and my hair seemed to be stuck at one length. Now it’s been waist length several times from simply washing it regularly. I don’t do oils, protective styles, deep conditions, protein treatments, none of that and it works for me.

I've literally gone from one extreme to the other and the difference is astonishing, so I'm sticking with oils and butters for eternity!

You don’t have to try this method but it’s not a trend and those wonderful stylists clients hair doesn’t lie.

@@moiethereal9634 shampoo is on a spectrum from most cleansing to least cleansing. there’s clarifying shampoo, all purpose shampoo, moisturizing shampoo, and co-wash (which is just conditioner, really). if you’re not using the CORRECT shampoo to cleanse your hair and don’t know WHEN to use it, your hair will not be properly cleansed from old product buildup and raw oils. clarifying shampoo has a higher pH & harsher surfactants than the other types of shampoo to really get out old product and raw oils. now, clarifying shampoo shouldn’t be used all the time and only when necessary. using it too much can be bad on the hair. Personally, I find raw oils useless. I stick to a few high quality water-based products that already have processed oils, so there’s no need for them. And I wash my hair at least once every 5 days (some might do every 7-10 days). Plus, I clarify my hair once a month. And that’s why I can limit my need for a clarifying shampoo.

After a little over 30 days I noticed my very gray low porosity hair got wet.. soaking wet. I was shocked. So now the hydration is life. It creates the curl and coils and I use botanical gels to hold the curl. Note, I also don’t use anything with coconut oil, JB castor oil, or Shea butter in the first 5 ingredients.

I somehow knew you were low porosity before you even mentioned it, based off on how you described your hair in the beginning. Low porosity hair can thrive without oils and creams which is fantastic because when you finally add moisture to your hair, it has a tendancy of keeping and holding that moisture, hense why oils aren't necessary. However, my high porisity LOVES butters and oils. It's the longest its ever been. I started my natural hair journey without using oils /cremes and it was immensely dry and would break off. Now that I incorporated butters and oils, it can hold moisture for soooo long. Like you said, high porosity does trap in water easily, but it loses water just as fast, and this is why my hair snapped off without the use of butters and oils to seal in that moisture.

The Hydration method works, I'm not sure if you remember me from you Gel only wash and go but I've been doing it since last summer. It's usually super hard to get people to believe me, they always say "OH MY HAIR DONT DO THAT". So many people doubt a wash and go (30 mins) and dont realize they have build up or over moisturized hair. The next step is to not be afraid of protein, it helps curl definition a lot

GIRL!!! When I was a teen, I bought into the entire SULFATES ARE BAD hype and ended up with a lot of products and a LOT of build-up. I went to a salon for the first time in 10 years a few months ago and the stylist said I had build-up even though I had washed my hair the week before (with a sulfate-free shampoo because I just never went and bought any other shampoo out of complacency). EMBARRAZING 😂 I learned so much by watching her and seeing how my hair reacts only when it’s properly cleansed and moistures with a good leave in conditioner! She even said “You’re using a lot of products” and I felt personally attacked but she wasn’t wrong 😂 I’m in the process of trying different holding solutions for twist outs because I love the ones I have 🥺...but for the past month, simplifying my hair routine and making things easier for myself has made a difference in the health of my hair. And of course going to a professional more often for check-ups. Because I’m learning to give up the idea that I can do it all when there are people who went to school for this 😂

Something I always noticed about locs is they always grow long very quickly and hardly deal with the issue of being dry. Besides the hair not shedding outside itself because it’s loc’d, ppl with locs, especially microlocs or sisterlocks use little to no products (creams or oils, etc.). Like you mentioned our scalp produces it’s own oils and I think if we clarify our hair and allow the natural oils to do it’s thing we’ll see great differences in how our hair behaves and grows.

For two straight months I left out the oils and my hair is thanking me. Fast forward to this week. I wear my hair in twists most of the time. I decided to use oil and Shea butter again this time on one side of my head, and no oil on the other. The side with the oil is itching and I can already see buildup after three days. The side without is just fine. This confirms it. Oils and butters are a no. Definitely doing a clarifying wash after these twists come out. Thank you!!

You need to MOISTURIZE your scalp to get rid of dry scalp. Oiling it isn’t putting moisture on it. I would recommend aloe Vera gel, it moisturized and helps so much

@sabinamiezah9800 3 жыл бұрын

I think it’s more about moderation in using these techniques. I use water and oil to moisturize my hair and before I tried this I’d used only water for a period and only oils for a period. Using only one or the other dehydrated and broke my hair off but using both has helped my hair to grow and stay strong. I think this method really depends on your hair porosity, your hair’s strength, your diet, and your routine. All of these factors affect hair nails skin etc. There’s also a method for hair growth where you massage your scalp in order to stimulate your hair’s natural sebum and allow it to coat your strands (as a protective shield almost), if you were to try the only water routine I definitely recommend incorporating this method into your routine

The oils and butters are what's making your hair dry. That and not washing frequently enough (potentially). Wash every 5 or so days, kick the oils and butters and creams, clarify a few times (over different wash days) to remove all that and style your hair with A SINGLE STYLER (gel for WNG, mousse or wrap foam for twist outs or braid outs or roller sets/wet sets), heat protectant for blowouts. Seriously. I had a dry patch that was a mess for YEARS and within 3 months of kicking oils (I was always oiling it to make it "soft"!!!), that hair feels exactly like the rest of my hair. And my hair only feels dryif I wait too long to shampoo.

@ays2778 3 жыл бұрын

Its also important to think about the climate where you live to decide on what hair products are best for your hair. Hair is more likely to retain moisture in more humid environments than drier ones (in my experience) so having products that seal in moisture can be useful in dry places vs products that define and allow the hair to continue absorbing water in humid places. Of course when you use these you need to clarify the hair so that the next time you wash it it xan absorb the water which can then be sealed in with product. This has definitely been my experience becasue the city where i go to school is way more humid than my home.

I was literally someone who battled with terrible itchy scalp, When I went outside and it was hot my head itched on spot really bad, hot shower = itchy scalp, getting into a hot car = itchy scalp. I explain to my stylist who I seen 1-2 times a year and she told me your hair itch because it's dirty lol ( I shampooed once a month and co wash the other weeks). Last Thursday I went to see my stylist and she put me on this regimen and I barely had itchy scalp these last couple days. My scalp feel like it can breathe and my hair feels so light. Just my first impression so far.

Could you try a wrap foam or mousse instead of a gel if you need a break? I’d love to see🥰

Yes absolutely.

Yes! That’s actually the other product I plan to introduce. And eventually if everything goes well I should be able to even do wash and go’s with just foams/mousse.

It won't give you hold resulting in frizz mousse is foam and it's for any other style other than wash and gos
