In this video I’m scrambling for all the relevant hair science knowledge I have to achieve the ultimate matted hair fix for my unmanageable coily high porosity hair - as a result of my flora & curl wash day.

Today I’m taking you guys through my haphazard (yet still science-informed)matted hair transformation. There was no one thing that I did that was the ultimate matted hair fix, but rather a set of different things (i.e. using specific conditioning ingredients and finger detangling methods) that that not only helped me to fix matted hair, but also made it easier for me to manipulate my unmanageable curly hair whilst it was still recovering, so that I didn’t end up with even further damaged hair in the process.

hi Fops! Congratulations on your engagement that is a FYNE LOOKING ROCK you have on there sis!! Yes it happened to me but that was a while ago probably 2 years ago. I used the AUBREY organics biotin THICKENING shampoo. My hair is low porosity 4b/4c it turned into a severely matted rats nest. I ended up requiring 2 detangling sessions with a high silicone rinse out conditioner after the accompanying biotin thickening conditioner made things worse for me!

I have a type 1 hair (asian hair) and I still watch a lot of your videos and subscribed for the education. I swear us straight-haired people often don't have the education for hair care. I've followed your advices regarding silicones (I shouldn't avoid silicones) and high-porosity hair and my hair has never looked better, so I would say your tips even work for Asian hair like mine. The only things I improvised were the level of moisture in my products (I need way less moisture) and the frequency of washing my hair (I need to wash more often than curly people). I still don't understand about proteins tho so I'm still trying to understand that. Overall, I like your channel, very insightful 👍 You're gonna be big someday.

Hi fops. I just want you to know you are God sent and I could literally hug you right now. I’ve been natural for 6 years and my hair has always been unmanageable. Probably even worse than your recent experience and I never knew what to do with it, what products will help me or what to look for in products. But since I found your channel about a month or two ago, the education I’ve been getting from you has been life changing. I usually hesitate before I jump into any hair advice but seeing as you described your hair as having the same properties as mine, I went and bought some of the products you recommended in your hair staples video. And I also took your advice on using film forming humectant as leave in conditioner. I just did a wash day on Tuesday and I literally cried. My hair has never felt this good and it’s almost a week later. I haven’t had to remoisturize my hair since Tuesday. And best of all, wash day was very short. I actually enjoyed wash day for once. I can’t say how much I love you enough. You’ve helped this black girl fall in love with her hair once again. You are a real queen. Looking out for us high porosity girls.

@chocolate82467 3 жыл бұрын

I agree! I’ve been following Fops for a several months and have learned so much about what to look for in products as well as what my hair does and doesn’t like. Once I started applying my new found knowledge, my hair has been thriving. It’s like she said, “it’s about time you started treating me well. Now I’m going to show you my beauty!” My hair is stronger and healthier, and I’m not only getting length but also retaining it. I just want to cry because I’m so happy. Definitely love Fops and thank God for her knowledge sharing. 💖💖💖💖💖

Hey girl! I really love your channel and the in-depth explainations you give. I really wish that you would make a video about hair sun protection, ingredients that do the job, how do they work and how are they similar/different to normal skin spf products. I am lost and confused when I try to find a hair sunscreen because I have no way of telling if the label just says its sun protective or if it actually is. Furthermore, with skin products, there are relatively well-known guidelines on how much you should use and how often you should reapply, but the only thing I get so far about hair is that it would be somewhat different.

I would love to get your thoughts on using and making heavy cream into a butter for use in your hair. I recently blended some heavy cream and added honey and some other oils and used it as a mask on my hair and it was more manageable and easy to detangle.

I love your content, even though my hair is blond, kinda wavy and nothing Iike yours, I always learn so much about hair! I also wonder with bleached hair if there is ever a 'too much' as in can I still use product meant for curly/coily hair? ( in a much lower dose ofc)

Great info. Where was this video when I was struggling with stripped matted hair each wash day 2 years ago ? lol I did a 3 month relaxer stretch and could not for the life of me figure out what was causing my hair to tangle sooooooo bad it was a nightmare and I lost a lot of hair during that period of time. Now I know what to do if this ever happens again.

Thanks for another great video! I’m a bit confused as to whether shampoo with silicone completely removes silicones? Others looking for a silicone-free clarifying shampoo might want to look at Boots Expert Build Up Removal Shampoo. It has sulphates and chelating ingredients, as well as conditioning/emollient ingredients.

Hello Afope, new subscriber here! Been binging on all your videos! Can you do a video on Argon oil and if it is bad or good for hair. I keep hearing mix opinions and my hairstylist told me to not use it but Argan oil is the only thing that leaves me hair soo shiny and moisturized. I have really curly hair and after the shower I will apply argan oil to my damp hair and put in in a pineapple to.go to bed My hair ends up looking and feeling AMAZING in the morning.

Hi, Afobe, I love how you back your videos with science, but I have wavy 2b-2c hair (used to be 3a but low thyroid changed that). I struggle to find such a reputable KZfaqr/source like you (a trichologist) that goes over wavy hair and not just coily or very curly/low porosity hair. It's either striaght or curly. Could you help a girl out and do a video on wavy hair or understandably since you don't have wavy hair recommend a good source for wavy hair tips? I feel stuck in the middle! Please help

@@AfopeAtoyebi I'm far from an expert (which is why I'm glad I found you!). I think it's a 3c 4a mix, similar to Naptural85 if you watch her. I don't really know about porosity but it stays dry unless I work hard on it so I'm thinking high? It grows easily but also tangles and breaks easily when I'm not looking after it properly. It's at my waist stretched and shrinks to my shoulders. I've been bad lately so it's breaking like a beast! I got olaplex which hopefully helps and I'm cutting it when I can. I'm too lazy for long hair 🤣

Hi! I have a question about "rebonding" treatments... I'm a new subscriber so I'm not sure if you already have a video on this. So 6 years ago I had a rebonding treatment done on my hair. I was only 12 at the time and absolutely loved it... at first. My hair (naturally) is Curly / type 3B-3C. After the treatment my hair looked like 1B hair. It grew out with time as it should, but I've had problems ever since. I have terrible dandruff and hairfall, and I'm just sick of it at this point. I love my curly hair, I just don't like the problems it has 🥲. Why did this happen and how can I fix it? Also if any viewers have any insight on this please reply to this comment, tyia 🙏🏼!
