LOL to you saying you did not do better🤣🤣🤣! Those oils, and foods like you said, can definitely be tricky. It’s a shame they intentionally try to fool people like this. I use a 50/50 mix of olive oil and avocado oil to seal my locs and I LOVE it! It’s not too heavy and not too light like you mentioned. Thanks so much for sharing girlfriend 🌹❤️🙏🏿!
I LOLed at the end. Too funny. But yes, reading ingredient list is important. Grape seed oil will usually be refined (or combined) because unrefined, raw grape seed oil has a very short shelf life and hard to find clean grapeseed oil anywhere. Light nut oils are better like Argan . I LOVE steaming my locs it’s the best moisturizing method for me. Love your videos.
🤣🤣🤣 Yes you’re right! I love the way Argan oil smells. I used to steam my hair as a loose natural, but never tried steaming my locs. Won’t hurt to try it again. Thank you for watching love 🤎
Correct on the refined oil thing! Argan has done me right. My locs are 4 inches past shoulders. I still like the hair food recipes though, but with locs like hers it would be too much work.
Loved this video! I also use Grapeseed Oil…but you do have to be careful…I use Pompeian Grapeseed Oil….It’s non-gmo…farmer-owned…and 100% Grapeseed Oil…nothing else mixed in🤙
love your energy , new subbie 💛 . I'm loc'd as well , I normally use water & shea butter or jbco but I notice it weighs my hair down afterwards but after watching your vid I'm now going to start using grapeseed oil . love your locs too 😍
I'm a new subscriber!❤️❤️ I NEVER comment but wanted to say that seed oils are so bad for human beings. Unfortunately, they are in everything!! Example: canola oil, soybean oil, grape seed oil, vegetable oil you name it. All garbage. I personally make my own hydrosols and herbal teas for my locs and scalp. I don't use any oils. If I feel like I need a fat for my scalp, then I'll use pure lanolin or beef tallow. Only a little and that's rare that I even use that.
@@nattyann you are welcome ❤️💕🙏🏽. A hydrosol is for example rose water or any plant matter that you would take into the distillation process. It's highly concentrated. For times when I don't need something extremely concentrated, I will make a tea. For example rose rosemary leaves add water and steep into a tea. Let it sit for hours and add that to a spray bottle. Voila! So cheap, and it's amazing for your scalp and locs. I have probably over 20 different herbs and plants depending on what I feel that my hair needs. I also do rinses with teas as well. For daily hydration, I will use my hydrosols. It's mostly ayurvedic herbs
Just watched your vid now & even though you ended up not using 100% grapeseed oil (only 10%) would I be so wrong to say that canola oil actually agrees with your hair👍🏿😊
Years ago my husband and I were using avocado oil and his scalp hated it so I was on the hunt for something else. Grapeseed oil was good to cook with and I ended up putting it in our hair and fell in love. It wasn’t too thick. Still using it now. I think you should try different oils and see which one you like the best.
Soooo mad about the oil too! I do use 100% grapeseed oil in my hair as well, and its jacked up that they are passing off what you were using as grapeseed. However, your hair is still gorgeous and thriving! So use up whatcha got (no need to waste it), and just do better next time 😅
Thank you boo! My mom said “that canola oil working for you girl” lol 😂 So I had a smaller bottle (same brand) and it was 100% grapeseed oil. So guess manufacturers were being cheap with the bigger bottle trying to stretch it and sell it. smh I’ll do better next time for sure! 💕
Definitely not oil and water everyday. I don’t use oils cause they make my scalp dry and itch. I’m older and we used grease on our scalp and ran it down the hair shaft. I don’t know who started this oil routine.🤷🏽♀️
Thanks for being honest because now I will pay more attention to the ingredients. That is so wrong for a company to label a product that way.
They got me that time lol but now I’m much more careful 😂

🤣🤣🤣 Ima keep it real with ya’ll, always!
So do you buy an oil blended or you buy it separately and mix yourself?
@@nattyann Lol 😂! I buy it separately and mix it together in an application bottle 😀!
I love how your not promoting all types of stuff. Just... like less is best.... Simplifying things helps in life.
Yes, that’s basically my motto lol I’m simple with my hair care. I don’t want to be bothered. If I like something Ima stick beside it 😂
I love your locs. can we get a loc journey to see how your locs came to this point?
Thank you Valencia! Yes I’m definitely gonna share that. 🥰

That’s crazy I usually get cold pressed on Amazon , now I gotta check the back
Right! They need to stop playing with us

Thank you for watching! Where do you purchase your oil?
@@nattyann Harris Teeter Grocery or Fry’s if you live on the west coast🤗…Also…Walmart has it!
love your energy , new subbie 💛 . I'm loc'd as well , I normally use water & shea butter or jbco but I notice it weighs my hair down afterwards but after watching your vid I'm now going to start using grapeseed oil . love your locs too 😍

Wow! Thank you for commenting! I’m interested in learning more about you making your own hydrosols and teas. What are the benefits?

the ending has me dying😂🤣🤣🤣the fact that you so didn't do better
🤣🤣🤣 all that talking and still used it lmaooo
Canola!!! 😨🤨
I was so tight about it 😵💫
Just watched your vid now & even though you ended up not using 100% grapeseed oil (only 10%) would I be so wrong to say that canola oil actually agrees with your hair👍🏿😊
My mom said the same thing! 🤣🤣🤣 I went out and got me a bottle of 100% grapeseed oil now, my hair better act right lol
You’re locs look amazing! I’m a new subscriber!
Thank you so much! Welcome 💚
How did you come across using grape seed oil? I feel I hear so many different ones ...not sure which to try

Grapeseed oil started my locs growing and kept it moisturized
Yess! It’s like our little magic potion lol
Does the bottle say oil blend on the front?
No it didn’t
Soooo mad about the oil too! I do use 100% grapeseed oil in my hair as well, and its jacked up that they are passing off what you were using as grapeseed. However, your hair is still gorgeous and thriving! So use up whatcha got (no need to waste it), and just do better next time 😅

Girl at this point I might just go pack to the old school way
