Thank you so much I really did need that for my dry skin I just got my hair straightened and I have experiencing dry scalp with a little bit of itching.
Can you share any tips about what products, if any, or techniques we can try to keep the scalp moisturized on a regular basis? Maybe a video exploring oils, grease, creams use/caution for the scalp? I came back to this video because I’ve been struggling with figuring out how to keep my scalp mositurized/what things to avoid for scalp health. Thank you @CurlyChemistry!
Can't tell you how refreshing and amazing it is to see a Black woman teaching natural hair care from a scientific and empirically informed perspective! Amazing videos, thank you! I've never felt more comfortable as both a Black man AND a nerd 😅
@@geo_neo9 Your ethnicity determines your hair type. Black people's hair is usually different from other people. This knowledge is generally lost among the blavk community. So, it's good to hear a Black woman with healthy hair talk about it.
@OneManGang What is the problem with him feeling comfortable with his own race? Leave him be. If you are a girl and you have to go to the hospital, you'll feel better with a female doctor than a male doctor. Is all about similarities, he doesn't mean it in a harsh way
Great question, good topic. I notice older women's hair is thinner and balding appear in the crown. I'm 59 with about 15% grey hair mostly in the front, rest is very dark black with a strand of grey thruout. My hair is very thick. All if this is due to years of good (not always but got routine now) natural hair, no perms of any kind, no color, infrequent salon visits and wkly or biweekly washes. Some in older generations feel such washes is too much, have had a perm for 10 years maybe more and color grey every other month and frequent salons for this "haircare". As I've aged I have noticed my scalp is more sensitive to some products (ingedients in them?) than before. Black women youtubers that address these topics are rare
The first day of 2023! I found this sister teaching what seems to be my never-ending search on natural hair care. Scalp, too, needs attention. After watching a few of her videos, there's no need to look further. Thank you!
Thank you wonderful young lady! Your information is always straight to the point with no gimmicks, not selling point and concise. As an older post menopausal woman I’m especially keen on scalp and hair treatment and am working against alopecia never relaxed my hair but stress and tight plaiting definitely culprits. I still have beautiful hair where it’s full but working on where growth is fine and slow. You’re special✨🙏🏿✨😘
EXACTLY Shanell, they all repeat each other or copy each other and promoting. An authority speaking from a scientific perspective. YES, I’m unsubscribe to some of them especially the one’s using a thousand ingredients from THEIR channel only!!! 🙏 thank you
I’m a Chemist and this is my first time seeing you so as soon as i saw Chemist’s point of view I clicked SUBSCRIBE asap😂. I’m here for the Science behind it all
Beverley marafa what's the science to healthy hair growth I took a couple of strains from my hair my hair stayed at the top of the glassĺ. What does that mean
I love to see black women (and men) and others with curly hair embracing their natural hair and making it healthy. So beautiful🕊️ I’m a 60 year old white woman with mainly straight hair and just recently started to really focus on hair care, trying to grow out my mostly gray-white hair. It’s breaking and thinning a lot, so would love to learn to fix these problems.
Mine as well.. I cut my hair off to start over while using the regiments you suggested and now my hair is thriving with minimal shedding between washes. Thank you!
When you said “ shampoo is for the scalp and crème or conditioner is for the hair” I really resonated with that cuz I’ve struggled with my curly hair for years and finally figured out that, that works. You just confirmed what seemed to be working out. 😀
But many ppl Put gels and things like that on their actual hair. At one point, we are all going to need to use a clarifying shampoo on both hair and scalp in my opinion.
Im a guy who's been rocking hair twist for years and needed to hear all of this. Hearing you break down the scalp says it all. Never knew about the witch hazel, nor hemp oil nor dandruff with the acv rinse. Very informative. Subbed!
I’ve had scalp inflammation since I can remember. It’s no flakes. No dandruff. Just a very itchy, often tender in the crown. Once in a while I feel bumps but I’m thinking I’ve scratched/irritated the scalp as I rub it to get relief from the tenderness .
Can you do a video on recommdations for Black Natural hair and scalp care for those starting Chemo for cancer and for shampoo and conditioner for cancer patients using the Cold Cap during chemo.
I'm trying to use migrane caps and misc icepacks using dry ice. Lots of hoops to jump. Hair still fell out and so I cut it. Oscar night.🙂 I was hoping to prevent but too many obstacles. 😥
I would like to hear about what to do if you have a scalp that is sore. I don’t have any of the issues in the video but sometimes if I press on my scalp it feels sore after sometimes. Great content. Had to pause to pull out my notebook.
This is exactly what I’m going through at the moment! I am struggling to find a gel/pomade to control my baby hairs as I have found the pomade I was using caused heavy build up in my hair. I am lost trying to find a product and there’s not much information about this problem!!
@@sashapalma2033 There was a GEL that I used YEARS ago. PURPLE RAIN. It was a "Healthy" gel. No flaking, no buildup. You would have to order it ONLINE now. I purchased it by the BOX yrs ago. I'm wearing a wig, now,so I don't worry so much about baby hair. Try it. You'll like it. I need the hair in my TEMPLES to grow. I see something coming, just want to help it come faster. Lol
My own hair growth journey of success, I myself adhered to this daily regimen: Take early morning sunshine every day for essential vitamin D. Consume veggies of various colours. Using paraben-free and fragrance free shampoo and gently massaging two times per week with hair oil from litttleextra cooconion. Important to keep in mind that hair growth is affected by general health as well as circulation and nutrition.
I've been waiting for this. I struggle so much with having a clean healthy scalp. most of the time I wash my hair only to realize it's still dirty the day after or it's overly dry, but (i also struggle with dandruff). This helped a lot. thanks ( : Can you do a video on how having previously relaxed or permed hair can affect your scalp? I think that's why I struggle so much with scalp care.
Any issues you may have..try a sugar detox. First week, the dying-off yeast in your body will release toxins..alcohols...to try and get you to cave and eat sugar..buy cake...eat potato chips, etc. Your mouth will coat with sweet, yeast, tasting saliva and you will even break out since the toxins are releasing through your skin. If you can survive the yeast trying their hardest to Not die off (they eat and multiply overgrowing inside your body by feasting on sugar) week two..you will see improvements. We are addicted to sugar that is stronger to leave than cocaine. If you go sugarless for months, I bet you'll see several health issues start to reverse. Even ones that your doctor told you are permanent. Sounds stupid but Real talk. Dandruff is basically an out of control yeast infection on your scalp..gross I know. That's why when you scratch your scalp and then smell your fingers afterwards, it smells like fresh bread.. sweet and full of yeast 🤢 People of color, need to jump on this sugar detox bandwagon-thyroid issues, fibroids, polyps, dandruff, etc. All of this is the result of eating too much sugar all day everyday in everything we consume. The toxins from this yeast overgrowth over the years, even causes cancers. I thought this might help. Just like we can be allergic to dairy and nuts, we are hugely allergic to sugar too.
Also, when I used to have a perm, I noticed my dandruff to be a big problem as well. I no longer have a perm and my hair and scalp feel much healthier. And my dandruff is very minimum now. If I spot any dandruff it's due to not moisturizing my scalp. But, what I did to curb my dandruff was invest in tea tree shampoo, rosemary oil and a scrub brush that you can purchase from any hair supply shop. All the best!
Scalp scrub is v important💫💜 Best to do a scalp scrub, with a decent product at least once or twice a month (it doesn't hv to be an expensive brand, although the best I found was on QVC, Tweak'd by Nature & it wasn't cheap - but an inexpensive brand will do as long as its not too sharp grained - use scalp scrub to remove all build up. Rosemary oil twice a week can help too, & cutting down sugar.🙏💜)
Your videos are always so informative. I love that you educate us on not only what to do but, more importantly, WHY we should do what we need to do for healthy hair. Thanks a million!
Viviscal Pro has helped me significantly. Even growing more baby hair and eyelashes....for real. However, I also had to step up my management of hypothyroidism and anemia. These have to be ruled out as possible contributing factors.
She did the same for my son hair when I say dandruff that just won’t stop producing once I started using apple cider vinegar and tea trea oil it’s literally gone !!!!!!!
Glad you're talking about the comdengenic scale!. For my high porosity wouldn't sit under the dryer with high porosity hair tho as my cuticle is already open!!
I 😍😍your channel !!! I'd like to have you discuss scalp/hair care for people who take him blood pressure and diabetes medications. Thank you so much, sis !!🌱🌻🌱
I appreciate the breakdown and info. Your videos has helped me so much ! For a while, I didn't realize how important it was to look at ingredients in shampoos. I realize with your help from the videos that certain shampoos wasn't for me (contain harsh/toxic ingredients). Thanks. Now, I make my own shampoos with African Black soap or castile soap (mix with other natural ingredients) for my hair/scalp. This is enough to clarify my hair/scalp. Other naturals think that we supposedly use a chelating, sulfate or clarifying store bought shampoos. Anyway, I know better now... If I ever go back to store bought or commercial products, it will be cruelty free, vegan and or organic. Ingredients are important!
Apply an oil of choice ie coconut or olive oil. Wait for cradle cap to be saturated then use a soft new toothbrush to gently lift the cradle cap of the scalp. Then shampoo hope this help. Pardon me chemist just sharing what I did with my daughter.
I normally have dandruff, at least for about 15 years. For the past 1 year I have had no such experiences. Guess why? I uses aloe vera to steam my hair as well as oil my hair every few days. It's alike a miracle... didn't know that oiling had such great results. Lovely video as usual.
Hello, i suffer with seborrheic dermatitis and been advised not to use oils on my hair/scalp. how do you use oils and aloe vera in your routine. thanks
It's so refreshing to see a woman, especially of color, who understands our issues, describing and teaching us how to effectively treat our scalp. This is exactly what I needed. Hairdressers never tell you anything about caring for your hair, even when they see that it's damaged. May God bless you for what you do and please continue the good work. Even my dermotoligist is of little use. I get more from your videos than I get from him, after paying so much and receiving such little advice. I'm going to tell everyone about you.😊
And I third that, guess I should have read the comments first! :-) so everyone who needs to know about this condition let's comment enough or like this comment enough so that she will notice and make this one of her earlier topics, otherwise we may not have any hair left to do anything with later than sooner!😐😐😊
I'm a disabled senior citizen and I've always taken good care of my hair. I even went to Beauty School when my beautician retired to learn hair chemistry. I'm pretty careful with my hair. I've NEVER HAD DANDRUFF & although I'm older now, I only have trouble with greying!!! I say trouble because it's the eventuality of every Senior. Life goes on!!! 😳❣️👍
How do you suggest creating and maintaining a healthy scalp routine? i.e. Is daily brushing the hair necessary for healthy scalp and hair and is it necessary to oil the scalp to keep it and your hair healthy? Does massaging the scalp stimulate hair growth? Thank you for your content and expertise 💜
I Love your videos. Would to know more about ACV rinses like when do you do it, the effectiveness etc. Thank You for everything that you teach us about our hair I really appreciate it so much🥰
@@Ir-of4zn I said it was a no for "ME!" But since the lady who had the dizzy spells was older like me I'm erring on the side of caution. That's not elementary 101 but just good old common sense!
@@cindychristian1700 Yeah, she is old and has metabolic disorder...she probably suffer from high blood pressure. Anyway, using good ole common sense is best for you.
First, congratulations 👏🏽🎉🎉🎊🎊 on reaching 💯 k! I would like to see a video/s about hair growth and care during pre-menopausal and menopausal phases. Thank you🤗
I just put witch hazel on my hair today. Yes it does feel so moisturizing. I put a little bit of baking soda, mixed it with witch hazel..and sprayed it..I massaged it in and it was so soothing. Then I applied peppermint oil on my scalp. I detangled and applied almond oil on the length of my hair and braided it. I love the feeling of the peppermint oil on my scalp.
My own hair growth success story (and my brothers) below: 1. Fragrance-free shampoo (natural or otherwise). The Korean cosmetics industry understands why we are still behind years ago. 2. Taoist hair growth soap only 2x per week: stops further hair loss and stimulates new growth (to some extent) can find it online but do this whole regimen not just this. 3. Drink nettle tea at least twice a day to remove hormone residues in the liver and further support the hormone balance, not completely, but sufficiently. 4. Scalp massage for 30 minutes a day. Don't skip anything, just massage slowly and firmly with your fingertips. Proceed gently at first as there may be some pain the next day. 5. Collagen powder 2x a day with one tablespoon each. Do not take pills as the dose is not high enough. 6. Rinse cold water directly on scalp. Do not let cold water run on your neck or head, otherwise you may get sick. But once a day or a few times a week works wonders. I learned this from my brother who has been searching for answers for years. Now, at 38, he has a full head of hair. But at 23 he had very thin hair all over his body. I also had thin hair. Stick to the regimen, I promise you will see results. Hair growth requires many protective measures and is therefore difficult to cure.
I deal with dry scalp and started using the indian clay mask mixed with organic ACV, aloe vera juice, tea tree oil, and onion/ginger juice. So far, so good. I've noticed less itching, less dandruff, and less breakage.
I had dandruff as a teen for a few years. I always thought it was because I had a full, thick head of curly hair and that my gel and hair products were the cause. I also lived in a tropical climate so I figured it was just natural that I'd have to suffer from dandruff. My brother and dad also had bits of dandruff so, eh, no biggie, right? Well, fast forward a few years and I developed full blown dry scalp. It was ugly, always on my shoulders and a horror show to anyone who came close enough. Embarrassing, but eventually I accepted it as part of me and didn't care anymore. Only problem is that it's so hard to live with it when it gets itchy and flares up! Now, after years of suffering and trying damn near everything, I did a bit of research and a bit of experimentation and I can safely say that now I believe it's caused by a fungus. The first thing that helped me alleviate my dry scalp symptoms was tea tree infused shampoo. I never sought professional help, but a hair stylist once sold me on her product to help me take care of my scalp. I bought tea tree oil too, but the oil by itself did not work to cure or lessen the dry scalp, it only soothed the itching. Anywho, I was hooked on the shampoo for the last 2 or so years but my scalp would only ever be clean for about 24 hours if that much, 48 hrs MAX in a good week. Eventually, another hair stylist recommended an anti-fungal ointment that wasn't available near me, so I decided to try a ketoconazole shampoo. I stumbled upon the ingredient through research and partly by random luck! The shampoo is easily available in Guyana (where I was at the time) and it's cheap, so I tried it and for the first time in YEARS it cured my scalp. I am still using it because I notice if I go too many days without washing my head will become greasy, sweaty and itchy, and I just feel gross and want to wash it. In some instances the dry scalp comes back but I think that's because I'm still in the early stages of curing it and I am not consistent with my treatments. If you use the ointment itself you will probably get better results, but I am using a shampoo and I am always in the gym and live a very active, busy lifestyle, so the shampoo is the best method for me right now. I also implemented new things to help reduce the spread of fungus/bacteria. Now, I comb my hair with a cheap comb I can throw away afterwards so the comb didn't pick up and trap the fungus. If I don't toss it, I'll be reintroducing fungus to my head the next time I use that comb. I also use a fresh towel and toss it in the wash afterwards. Changing my pillow case frequently is important too, and using clean hair ties as well. Basically you need to treat it like if you had lice. You would avoid hats you've worn when you had lice, you wouldn't lay in the pillow with your lice head and use it again once its cured, or use the same towel multiple times. If you can envision fungus as a living thing spreading everywhere that your hair and scalp makes contact with, you'd get an idea of how to treat it and what to do to keep your environment fresh and fungus-free. invest in an anti-fungal shampoo and wash your hair often (like 4 times a week on avg) and use fresh tools each time, until you eventually permanently fix the scalp. An anti-fungal ointment would be better! But I am not a medical doctor so please do your own research before taking my advice. My HOPE is that it will go away on its own eventually, but I only recently discovered this shampoo & method and I know now that it WORKS for. me. SO I am sharing in hopes that you or any other person suffering from dry scalp can find some relief as well. xx
I would love to know more about scalp care while your hair is in box braids or other protective styles. The oils sometimes break me out so wondering how often I should be doing it and the other solutions are liquidy so will mess with the integrity of the style. Thanks for being so informative. I learn so much here.
@@billybobleeward3765 THANK YOU! I actually stop wearing tight hairstyles in July 2019 and unfortunately the hair in my temples has not grown back yet, so I really wanted to get her perspective
@@ChimereTrielle I suffered through this pretty much my whole life. From age of 4 to 21, I lived in tight buns and brades 24/7. Nobody stopped me as non of my family knew what traction alopecia was. When my hair began thinning as a teen, no one knew why. This was in mid 2000s so I didn't have a phone so internet was limited. It's only when I googled "why does my hair keep falling" in 2018 that I finally learned about the years of damage my tight hairstyles had caused. I'm 25 now and my hair is starting to grow back slowly. It's been 4 years and I still have a long way to go. I just want to say it's never too late, as long as you have breath in your lungs, it's never too late to fix the damage. You just gotta be patient :)
As a child my mom permed my hair and damaged the scalp. I remember the burning sensation and how the crown of my hair would break off and it stunted my hair growth. When stressed it does not grow quickly and i think due to stress breaks off in crown readily and as I am older in the temples
I literally just finished watching another of your videos and thought I really need to hear from her about scalp care… and then up this popped!! Absolutely perfect for my dry scalp. I’ve just bought some of the Carol’s daughter shampoo. I’ll get some hemp oil and do more steaming and update you with how it’s working. OMG, thank you so much. You are wonderful
I suffer from alopecia areata, it's so very devastatingand unfair and didn't seemingly develop until my mid twenties. I would absolutely LOVE for you to cover that topic. I love your channel and I so appreciate what you offer. ♥️

I’m sorry about your alopecia. I think Brazil nuts help with selenium, which helps with thyroid issues which can affect hair health. Do some research, and consider eating 1 brazil nut a day 💗
Ive been using petroleum hair grease on my scalp for centuries and my hair is thick and long... Any suggestions on why my hair continue to thrive??? I use the grease even till this day, it hasn't felled me yet. Im 52yrs old African American.
Hi, mixed black girl with psoriasis here! My best recommendation is to get oral medication if your insurance will cover it. All the steroids and alcohol based topicals are not great for the hair. I don’t use hair oil anymore but I still use it on my patches of psoriasis for soothing it.
Do NOT use any oral medication . Big Pharma medication is not meant to cure or help with this .I compare oral medication to dirty bandaids , seems like they help BUT in the long run very bad for the health . Big Pharma is only in it for the money…Instead….to heal scalp psoriasis do not consume sugar , chocolate , gluten , any nightshade vegetables ( peppers , egg plant , tomatoes , potatoes )dairy , cheese . Eliminate these for a month or more and when the psoriasis is gone add one of these foods one at a time to see which ones trigger your psoriasis , then eliminate that one . ALSO , get out in the sun to get lots of vitamin D which helps greatly . Most people with psoriasis do not get enough vitamin D . I know all of this because I am in the process of doing these exact things to try and heal my head psoriasis. Also take slippery elm bark tea ( take this before bed and at least6 to 8 hours BEFORE or after TAKING the other ones mentioned , yellow saffron tea ( not the expensive one ) L-Glutamine . Read up on when to take these . Good luck , Good healing….
I’m a licensed cosmetologist, of 24 years. We were taught the benefits of apple cider vinegar in cos school. I’ve used them on clients and myself before but not often at all. I had a client with very thin hair, that I would only cut her hair for her, from time to time. Not sure what shampoos and conditioners she would use, I never gave her those services. One day she came to the salon and her hair was severely tangled. She said it was from doing a ACV scalp rinse. Her hair shedded out in clumps as I helped her detangled it! That’s scared me away from ever even thinking of using ACV! Do you have an idea of what could have caused that
How much AVC did she use? You're only supposed to use less than 1/2 the amount of water. Like 1 part (any form of measurement) of ACV & 3 parts water. Some even try 1 part ACV & 2 parts water. ACV is only supposed to bring the hair & scalp back to its normal ph level. If her ph was fine before, then maybe the ACV rinse caused her hair to be too acidic or she already had hair products with a high ph and ACV "tipped the scale" so to speak. Also, did she use a hair rinse using baking soda and water? Bcuz ik some people like to use it as a "natural diy shampoo" right *before* doing an ACV rinse. Some use baking soda afterwards instead. 😬 And that makes the hair SUPER BRITTLE & DRY, leaving the cuticles opened, thus causing it to be tangled and hard to comb out. Hope this helped. 😌
Is it beneficial to go to the hair clinics? They use the lymphatic machine Cool laser light Natural product Steamer And you have to go once a week. I personally wonder is it worth it?
I stopped shampooing my hair for at least two months and I have no more hair shedding and my hair is growing faster and looks much healthier. Hair growth has alot to do with diet. My hair loves steam. Sulfur 8 grease, tea tree oil, acv and coconut oil will get rid of dandruff.
Awesome. What about the challenge of Trichotillomania. Treating the growth on new hair. I battle with it still, but it's something that I have to do now that I know what's been wrong with me for all my adult life and since I was a child. Getting into therapy found out this horrible depression. I started watching TH-cam videos on hair, make overs for face and my silver gray hair. Never had not a one woman that had hair channels respond. Now listening to you iI got caring for types the care. What can I use on the new growth. E.
Thank you so much for this...I'm almost in tears wishing this information would have been available before I went natural years ago. I now have seborrheic dermatitis due to prolonged co-washing...I have spots that I don't think will ever grow hair again. Please everyone take care of your scalp!!! All the products in the world can't save your hair if the scalp isn't healthy!
I have seborrheic dermatitis as well & it is hell to deal with. I’m not sure how I got it but it’s made taking care of my hair more of a challenge. You should look into Ayurvedic hair treatments to help regrow your hair. It’s been helping a lot for me with thickening my hair & retaining length. SheRea delsol, curly proverbs, & hennasooq have some great info & recipes if you’re interested. Also I’ve been using these probiotic scalp drops by Beas bayou that help with inflammation, healing, & calming the scalp.
@@ButterflyFaye I don't know how I missed this but thank you so much....my hair loss has only gotten worse since this comment so I'm hoping something will give! Take care!
Hello always great information!! Can you talk about hair lost due hypothyroidism meds. My hair has become so thin I have bold spots I have tried everything. My thyroid levels are fine on the correct meds I don’t know what else to do😔
Wash hair with fresh aloe vera gel. It gets sudsy similar to shampoo, cleanses, anti inflammatory, anti fungal, anti microbial, moisturizes, shines and strengthens hair. Wash aloe, cut edges off, Peel off one side of skin, scoop the gel out with spoon(saves time), put it in blender(do not add water or oils), strain it or it will leave pieces in your hair for weeks(very difficult to get out of hair), strain blended aloe atleast twice in a nut milk bag or stocking, a nylon nut milk bag(what I use) will save you time & make it easier. Wash hair, rinse, can leave in as a conditioner, massage scalp with aloe(in a applicator bottle, for ease) during the week, moisturize hair. I use camille rose leave in collection line- honey, only, on hair not scalp. Honey is also a humectant like aloe. Your scalp will heal and hair will flourish. Always apply moisture to wet hair for best results. The yellow resin that comes from aloe-let it drain or rinse aloe after peeling off one side of the leaf/aloe skin, then scoop aloe and blend to as close to liquid as possible. Process takes 10minutes or less. Plant aloe in yard.
Can anything be done for the hair loss that often comes with advanced age? My mother is 93 and upset at how much hair she is losing. You can see her scalp now.
Good question and would make a good topic. Women of all ages care about what their hair looks like and don't all want to wear wigs. I bet your mom is just beautiful, give her a hug for me! :-)
Thanks doc. This video information was so educational. I did not know Which Hazel was good for the scalp. I know its good for the face. I use it as a toner. I have a essential oil kit. It has all the good ones included rosemary, orange oil, lavender, tee tree, peppeerment. I plan to try the hemp oil and tee tree mix. I will start back to using my hair steamer. I wear it out as a facial steamer. It has an attachment to steam the face. I'll get back to steaming my scalp as well. You asked a question and here is what I would like you to talk about as far as the scalp go. I pretty much have all the items you mentioned in this video already here at home with me all but hemp seed oil anyway, what I also learned from his video is to use products correctly to get the best results. I've learned you can have several productd but if they arent t used at the right time (before shampooing or after steaming etc.) or with the right other product you want get the best results. This was a very educational video.
Thank you for stewarding your gift so well! Can you please assist with recommendations and experimenting with grease vs oils for healthy hydrated low porosity scalp care? Which brands? and how often to apply directly to the scalp? With much gratitude, blessings ❤️
Can you talk about bald spots/hair loss, are there any ingredients we can incorporate in our hair care routine that can prevent or slow this if prevention is impossible?
I experience this about a year ago. Hair was coming out in clumps. All I had to do was just touch it and handfuls of hair came out. Before this, I had shoulder length hair. After this, almost bald. Went to doctor and really no help. Was a waste of my time. Anyway I became very depressed. I started browsing TH-cam and came across some videos and I learned a lot and started applying these things and my hair now is pass my ear lobe and came back thicker in a year’s time. These are the things I did and still doing..... I wash my hair once a week using a shampoo brush or massager because it stimulates blood flow for hair growth. Then I use a deep conditioner or mask with a plastic cap under heated dryer for 15-20 minutes. Let hair cool down then rinse with cool water to close pores and lock in moisture. Then I use a leave in conditioner. Detangle with a wide tooth comb. Then I use a Styling cream for more moisture. Clip ends when they look all stringy etc because split ends causes more breakage. I sleep with a Satin bonnet. Cotton dries out your hair which causes breakage. I also use Jamaican and most recently Haitian Black Castor Oil with Lavender several times a week. I take iron tablets ( my iron was low and this definitely causes hair loss) I take vitamin D, turmeric ( aids in inflammation ) and a multivitamin and drink water.
I've read that rosemary essential oil is supposed to work as good as whatever is in Rogaine. Seems worth a try since it's all natural. Also, be sure to take the vitamin "biotin" every day. That helps most people.
@@helgag.9866 biotin didn’t help me. I always had shoulder length hair and for numerous reasons my hair started coming out in clumps and I even had a bald spot in the back of my head. Doctor was a waste of time. Anyway I started watching videos and applied these things with amazing results. Shampoo once a week using a shampoo brush, deep conditioning with plastic cap with heat for 20 -30 minutes then let hair cool down for 5 minutes then rinse with cool water to close pores and lock in the moisture. Detangle with a wide tooth comb. Jamaican Black Castor Oil with Lavender or with Peppermint to also stimulate hair growth and a multivitamin everyday along with vitamin C and turmeric. And drink water!!! Now my hair is pass my ear lobe and it came back thick!! Make sure when you’re lounging around and go to bed please wear a satin bonnet or scarf and trim your ends only when needed.
Oral saw palmetto and coconut oil will reduce serum dht. Topical rosemary oil + peppermint oil + coconut oil will reduce scalp dht, add sunflower oil to activate ppar receptor to increase scalp fat gain which promotes scalp estrogen production needed for hair growth. The root problem is not dht, dht is also needed to signal hair growth, the problem is what causes dht to increase which is inflammation in the gut and scalp.
Thank you for keeping it real, honest, short, and to the point while offering knowledge all in one. I'm glad I stumbled across this video. God bless and be well. 🙏
Ok, this video has been one of THE MOST informative and well-researched I have seen in a long time. Your content is always wonderful. I’m just going to say anything and everything hair and skin care related and I will soak it up. Thank you, Lovely Lady! ❤️
I have thinning around my edges and I am sure scalp health is key to stimulating my hair to regrow. I would be interested in methods to regrow the hairline.
Your videos are always so informative. Thank you! I would love to see a video on DHT, the causes in maturing women and how to combat the resulting thinning. Thx!
Oooh, Yeah, Judi S. Both of my older sisters are going BALD because they don''t do what I tell them, and they don't watch Curly Chemistry. A good talk on DHT and thinning would be Wonderful.
Oral saw palmetto and coconut oil will reduce serum dht. Topical rosemary oil + peppermint oil + coconut oil will reduce scalp dht, add sunflower oil to activate ppar receptor to increase scalp fat gain which promotes scalp estrogen production needed for hair growth. The root problem is not dht, dht is also needed to signal hair growth, the problem is what causes dht to increase which is inflammation in the gut and scalp.
@@manny769 Thanks for the information! That makes sense!!! I’ll give it a try. This is so frustrating because I really try to take care of my hair and nothing was working. I really appreciate the insight! 👍🏽
This was super helpful! My daughter has a dandruff issue. Could you talk about scalp sensitivity? Like what causes it and if there is anything that can be done about it?
@@leorising8074 She doesn't eat most of those things because they're on her allergy profile. Her carbs may very well be a bit high though. Mostly likely due to snacks. Any suggestions on some low carb options?
As a bald man on a journey to regrow, and recondition my hair to grow all over my head - especially in the front - this information is priceless! I'd like to know how do the ACV rinse, and I'm also interested to know if the needle type derma rollers are damaging for the scalp. I've been using one for about two months on my scalp, and I've honestly have stimulated alot more growth than I have previously. Anyway, THANK U!
Hi - I've just watched your video and found it very informative. My question is if you have alopecia or hair loss in various different sections of your scalp how do you manage this with oils? Does this mean the follicles will never grow back? Are you able to do a video on this topic?
I love all of your great tips and I definitely use acv rinses mixed with tea tree oil for itchy scalp, as well as for a scalp/product buildup cleanser!! But I must try witch hazel!!💖🙏🏼🙏🏼
I just found you earlier today! I spent the better part of my morning and afternoon glued watching your videos. I learned so much and today bought some of the products you recommended for my low porosity hair. THEY WORKED! My hair was so moisturized and for the first time, I saw my curl patterns. I have one question: what other oils besides hemp seed do you recommend for unclogging follicles? Awesome channel! I look forward to watching your other videos. God bless you!
Hello… since u have low porosity hair, hemp seed has too big of a molecule to penetrate.. Google “non comedogenic oils for low porosity hair” and you’ll get a list… I also have low porosity and I use grape seed and sunflower oil… there’s jojoba, argan, grape seed, safflower, sunflower, and SOO many oils, but u just wanna make sure it’s either 0-2 on the scale… meaning they won’t clog ur follicles… hope this helps!
It's so refreshing to see a black woman talking about hair care in a realistic way. I would like to see a video about central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA) the cause and how to treat it...💐
I love the fact that you did a video about scalp health know I'm late to the party on this one but I'm glad I found it everybody talks about hair if your scalp isn't healthy or clogged the hair will not grow out of it thank you so much for inviting all of us .and specially me LOL about scalp heath I knew a lot of the stuff you were talking about but it's nice to know that somewhat of what I'm thinking is true
Great video! I think a scalpcare video we really could benefit from is whether or not oil is beneficial to the scalp. I feel like a lot of presenters talk about oiling their scalp and why it doesn’t work for them, but I don’t feel like they include the benefits of oil to the scalp for other people that may need it or how you know to steer clear of scalp oils or when/how to incorporate them, if you should.
A topic that interest me is how to stimulate growth an moisturization for a person that has locs and does not use oils or anything with slip in their hair.

great question, i agree
Omg! Yes! Thank you for suggesting because I definitely could use the info myself.
Great question, good topic. I notice older women's hair is thinner and balding appear in the crown. I'm 59 with about 15% grey hair mostly in the front, rest is very dark black with a strand of grey thruout. My hair is very thick. All if this is due to years of good (not always but got routine now) natural hair, no perms of any kind, no color, infrequent salon visits and wkly or biweekly washes. Some in older generations feel such washes is too much, have had a perm for 10 years maybe more and color grey every other month and frequent salons for this "haircare". As I've aged I have noticed my scalp is more sensitive to some products (ingedients in them?) than before. Black women youtubers that address these topics are rare

Thanks great to hear Brittany! You’re so welcome! ☺️
Mine as well.. I cut my hair off to start over while using the regiments you suggested and now my hair is thriving with minimal shedding between washes. Thank you!
What did you do? Use the shampoo she recommended and apple cider vinegar? What else did you incorporate to see changes?
When you said “ shampoo is for the scalp and crème or conditioner is for the hair” I really resonated with that cuz I’ve struggled with my curly hair for years and finally figured out that, that works. You just confirmed what seemed to be working out. 😀
But many ppl
Put gels and things like that on their actual hair. At one point, we are all going to need to use a clarifying shampoo on both hair and scalp in my opinion.

My own hair growth journey of success, I myself adhered to this daily regimen:
Take early morning sunshine every day for essential vitamin D. Consume veggies of various colours. Using paraben-free and fragrance free shampoo and gently massaging two times per week with hair oil from litttleextra cooconion. Important to keep in mind that hair growth is affected by general health as well as circulation and nutrition.
The cocooonioon hair shampoo and oil successfully reduced the hair fall.
I've been waiting for this. I struggle so much with having a clean healthy scalp. most of the time I wash my hair only to realize it's still dirty the day after or it's overly dry, but (i also struggle with dandruff). This helped a lot. thanks ( : Can you do a video on how having previously relaxed or permed hair can affect your scalp? I think that's why I struggle so much with scalp care.
Any issues you may have..try a sugar detox. First week, the dying-off yeast in your body will release toxins..alcohols...to try and get you to cave and eat sugar..buy cake...eat potato chips, etc. Your mouth will coat with sweet, yeast, tasting saliva and you will even break out since the toxins are releasing through your skin. If you can survive the yeast trying their hardest to Not die off (they eat and multiply overgrowing inside your body by feasting on sugar) week two..you will see improvements. We are addicted to sugar that is stronger to leave than cocaine. If you go sugarless for months, I bet you'll see several health issues start to reverse. Even ones that your doctor told you are permanent. Sounds stupid but Real talk. Dandruff is basically an out of control yeast infection on your scalp..gross I know. That's why when you scratch your scalp and then smell your fingers afterwards, it smells like fresh bread.. sweet and full of yeast 🤢 People of color, need to jump on this sugar detox bandwagon-thyroid issues, fibroids, polyps, dandruff, etc. All of this is the result of eating too much sugar all day everyday in everything we consume. The toxins from this yeast overgrowth over the years, even causes cancers. I thought this might help. Just like we can be allergic to dairy and nuts, we are hugely allergic to sugar too.
Also, when I used to have a perm, I noticed my dandruff to be a big problem as well. I no longer have a perm and my hair and scalp feel much healthier. And my dandruff is very minimum now. If I spot any dandruff it's due to not moisturizing my scalp. But, what I did to curb my dandruff was invest in tea tree shampoo, rosemary oil and a scrub brush that you can purchase from any hair supply shop. All the best!
Scalp scrub is v important💫💜 Best to do a scalp scrub, with a decent product at least once or twice a month (it doesn't hv to be an expensive brand, although the best I found was on QVC, Tweak'd by Nature & it wasn't cheap - but an inexpensive brand will do as long as its not too sharp grained - use scalp scrub to remove all build up. Rosemary oil twice a week can help too, & cutting down sugar.🙏💜)

I appreciate the breakdown and info. Your videos has helped me so much ! For a while, I didn't realize how important it was to look at ingredients in shampoos. I realize with your help from the videos that certain shampoos wasn't for me (contain harsh/toxic ingredients). Thanks. Now, I make my own shampoos with African Black soap or castile soap (mix with other natural ingredients) for my hair/scalp. This is enough to clarify my hair/scalp. Other naturals think that we supposedly use a chelating, sulfate or clarifying store bought shampoos. Anyway, I know better now... If I ever go back to store bought or commercial products, it will be cruelty free, vegan and or organic. Ingredients are important!

I just put witch hazel on my hair today. Yes it does feel so moisturizing. I put a little bit of baking soda, mixed it with witch hazel..and sprayed it..I massaged it in and it was so soothing. Then I applied peppermint oil on my scalp. I detangled and applied almond oil on the length of my hair and braided it. I love the feeling of the peppermint oil on my scalp.
My own hair growth success story (and my brothers) below:
1. Fragrance-free shampoo (natural or otherwise). The Korean cosmetics industry understands why we are still behind years ago.
2. Taoist hair growth soap only 2x per week: stops further hair loss and stimulates new growth (to some extent) can find it online but do this whole regimen not just this.
3. Drink nettle tea at least twice a day to remove hormone residues in the liver and further support the hormone balance, not completely, but sufficiently.
4. Scalp massage for 30 minutes a day. Don't skip anything, just massage slowly and firmly with your fingertips. Proceed gently at first as there may be some pain the next day.
5. Collagen powder 2x a day with one tablespoon each. Do not take pills as the dose is not high enough.
6. Rinse cold water directly on scalp. Do not let cold water run on your neck or head, otherwise you may get sick. But once a day or a few times a week works wonders.
I learned this from my brother who has been searching for answers for years. Now, at 38, he has a full head of hair. But at 23 he had very thin hair all over his body. I also had thin hair.
Stick to the regimen, I promise you will see results. Hair growth requires many protective measures and is therefore difficult to cure.
I deal with dry scalp and started using the indian clay mask mixed with organic ACV, aloe vera juice, tea tree oil, and onion/ginger juice. So far, so good. I've noticed less itching, less dandruff, and less breakage.
I had dandruff as a teen for a few years. I always thought it was because I had a full, thick head of curly hair and that my gel and hair products were the cause. I also lived in a tropical climate so I figured it was just natural that I'd have to suffer from dandruff. My brother and dad also had bits of dandruff so, eh, no biggie, right? Well, fast forward a few years and I developed full blown dry scalp. It was ugly, always on my shoulders and a horror show to anyone who came close enough. Embarrassing, but eventually I accepted it as part of me and didn't care anymore. Only problem is that it's so hard to live with it when it gets itchy and flares up!
Now, after years of suffering and trying damn near everything, I did a bit of research and a bit of experimentation and I can safely say that now I believe it's caused by a fungus.
The first thing that helped me alleviate my dry scalp symptoms was tea tree infused shampoo. I never sought professional help, but a hair stylist once sold me on her product to help me take care of my scalp. I bought tea tree oil too, but the oil by itself did not work to cure or lessen the dry scalp, it only soothed the itching. Anywho, I was hooked on the shampoo for the last 2 or so years but my scalp would only ever be clean for about 24 hours if that much, 48 hrs MAX in a good week.
Eventually, another hair stylist recommended an anti-fungal ointment that wasn't available near me, so I decided to try a ketoconazole shampoo. I stumbled upon the ingredient through research and partly by random luck! The shampoo is easily available in Guyana (where I was at the time) and it's cheap, so I tried it and for the first time in YEARS it cured my scalp. I am still using it because I notice if I go too many days without washing my head will become greasy, sweaty and itchy, and I just feel gross and want to wash it. In some instances the dry scalp comes back but I think that's because I'm still in the early stages of curing it and I am not consistent with my treatments. If you use the ointment itself you will probably get better results, but I am using a shampoo and I am always in the gym and live a very active, busy lifestyle, so the shampoo is the best method for me right now.
I also implemented new things to help reduce the spread of fungus/bacteria. Now, I comb my hair with a cheap comb I can throw away afterwards so the comb didn't pick up and trap the fungus. If I don't toss it, I'll be reintroducing fungus to my head the next time I use that comb. I also use a fresh towel and toss it in the wash afterwards. Changing my pillow case frequently is important too, and using clean hair ties as well. Basically you need to treat it like if you had lice. You would avoid hats you've worn when you had lice, you wouldn't lay in the pillow with your lice head and use it again once its cured, or use the same towel multiple times. If you can envision fungus as a living thing spreading everywhere that your hair and scalp makes contact with, you'd get an idea of how to treat it and what to do to keep your environment fresh and fungus-free.
invest in an anti-fungal shampoo and wash your hair often (like 4 times a week on avg) and use fresh tools each time, until you eventually permanently fix the scalp. An anti-fungal ointment would be better! But I am not a medical doctor so please do your own research before taking my advice.
My HOPE is that it will go away on its own eventually, but I only recently discovered this shampoo & method and I know now that it WORKS for. me.
SO I am sharing in hopes that you or any other person suffering from dry scalp can find some relief as well. xx

I suffer from alopecia areata, it's so very devastatingand unfair and didn't seemingly develop until my mid twenties. I would absolutely LOVE for you to cover that topic. I love your channel and I so appreciate what you offer. ♥️
I am dealing with this too because I found out that I have thyroid and parathyroid issues, would love some help on this.
I am praying for both of you guys ! I know that GOD will lead you to a solution SOON ! Much loovvvee
Any issues you may have..try a sugar detox. First week, the dying-off yeast in your body will release toxins..alcohols...to try and get you to cave and eat sugar..buy cake...eat potato chips, etc. Your mouth will coat with sweet, yeast, tasting saliva and you will even break out since the toxins are releasing through your skin. If you can survive the yeast trying their hardest to Not die off (they eat and multiply overgrowing inside your body by feasting on sugar) week two..you will see improvements. We are addicted to sugar that is stronger to leave than cocaine. If you go sugarless for months, I bet you'll see several health issues start to reverse. Even ones that your doctor told you are permanent. Sounds stupid but Real talk. Dandruff is basically an out of control yeast infection on your scalp..gross I know. That's why when you scratch your scalp and then smell your fingers afterwards, it smells like fresh bread.. sweet and full of yeast 🤢 People of color, need to jump on this sugar detox bandwagon-thyroid issues, fibroids, polyps, dandruff, etc. All of this is the result of eating too much sugar all day everyday in everything we consume. The toxins from this yeast overgrowth over the years, even causes cancers.

Made a difference for me. I just applied 3'xs a week.
I’m sorry about your alopecia. I think Brazil nuts help with selenium, which helps with thyroid issues which can affect hair health. Do some research, and consider eating 1 brazil nut a day 💗
Ive been using petroleum hair grease on my scalp for centuries and my hair is thick and long... Any suggestions on why my hair continue to thrive??? I use the grease even till this day, it hasn't felled me yet. Im 52yrs old African American.
Can you please discuss scalp psoriasis and trying to grow hair
Hi, mixed black girl with psoriasis here! My best recommendation is to get oral medication if your insurance will cover it. All the steroids and alcohol based topicals are not great for the hair. I don’t use hair oil anymore but I still use it on my patches of psoriasis for soothing it.
Do NOT use any oral medication . Big Pharma medication is not meant to cure or help with this .I compare oral medication to dirty bandaids , seems like they help BUT in the long run very bad for the health . Big Pharma is only in it for the money…Instead….to heal scalp psoriasis do not consume sugar , chocolate , gluten , any nightshade vegetables ( peppers , egg plant , tomatoes , potatoes )dairy , cheese . Eliminate these for a month or more and when the psoriasis is gone add one of these foods one at a time to see which ones trigger your psoriasis , then eliminate that one . ALSO , get out in the sun to get lots of vitamin D which helps greatly . Most people with psoriasis do not get enough vitamin D . I know all of this because I am in the process of doing these exact things to try and heal my head psoriasis. Also take slippery elm bark tea ( take this before bed and at least6 to 8 hours BEFORE or after TAKING the other ones mentioned , yellow saffron tea ( not the expensive one ) L-Glutamine . Read up on when to take these . Good luck , Good healing….
Sea breeze is good for the scalp also.. it helped me
I’m a licensed cosmetologist, of 24 years. We were taught the benefits of apple cider vinegar in cos school. I’ve used them on clients and myself before but not often at all. I had a client with very thin hair, that I would only cut her hair for her, from time to time. Not sure what shampoos and conditioners she would use, I never gave her those services.
One day she came to the salon and her hair was severely tangled. She said it was from doing a ACV scalp rinse. Her hair shedded out in clumps as I helped her detangled it! That’s scared me away from ever even thinking of using ACV! Do you have an idea of what could have caused that
How much AVC did she use? You're only supposed to use less than 1/2 the amount of water. Like 1 part (any form of measurement) of ACV & 3 parts water. Some even try 1 part ACV & 2 parts water. ACV is only supposed to bring the hair & scalp back to its normal ph level. If her ph was fine before, then maybe the ACV rinse caused her hair to be too acidic or she already had hair products with a high ph and ACV "tipped the scale" so to speak.
Also, did she use a hair rinse using baking soda and water? Bcuz ik some people like to use it as a "natural diy shampoo" right *before* doing an ACV rinse. Some use baking soda afterwards instead. 😬 And that makes the hair SUPER BRITTLE & DRY, leaving the cuticles opened, thus causing it to be tangled and hard to comb out. Hope this helped. 😌
Is it beneficial to go to the hair clinics?
They use the lymphatic machine
Cool laser light
Natural product
Steamer
And you have to go once a week.
I personally wonder is it worth it?
??? Helppppp
Another wonderful video! I'd love to learn about how scalp care & cleanliness for people who exercise daily?
Great suggestion! I'll add that also! :-)
Yes!! Great suggestion!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@fatimahhuckabay2256 exercise FTW, heading for first bike ride of the spring
I’ve seen it suggested to cowash in between (an actual cleansing cowash not just conditioner) and shampoo weekly
I stopped shampooing my hair for at least two months and I have no more hair shedding and my hair is growing faster and looks much healthier. Hair growth has alot to do with diet. My hair loves steam. Sulfur 8 grease, tea tree oil, acv and coconut oil will get rid of dandruff.
Peace Beautiful, I’d love to hear your expertise advise on the Chebe Powder or Oil that a lot of women are putting on their scalp.
Awesome. What about the challenge of Trichotillomania. Treating the growth on new hair. I battle with it still, but it's something that I have to do now that I know what's been wrong with me for all my adult life and since I was a child. Getting into therapy found out this horrible depression. I started watching TH-cam videos on hair, make overs for face and my silver gray hair. Never had not a one woman that had hair channels respond. Now listening to you iI got caring for types the care. What can I use on the new growth.

Thank you so much for this...I'm almost in tears wishing this information would have been available before I went natural years ago. I now have seborrheic dermatitis due to prolonged co-washing...I have spots that I don't think will ever grow hair again. Please everyone take care of your scalp!!! All the products in the world can't save your hair if the scalp isn't healthy!
I have seborrheic dermatitis as well & it is hell to deal with. I’m not sure how I got it but it’s made taking care of my hair more of a challenge. You should look into Ayurvedic hair treatments to help regrow your hair. It’s been helping a lot for me with thickening my hair & retaining length. SheRea delsol, curly proverbs, & hennasooq have some great info & recipes if you’re interested. Also I’ve been using these probiotic scalp drops by Beas bayou that help with inflammation, healing, & calming the scalp.
@@ButterflyFaye I don't know how I missed this but thank you so much....my hair loss has only gotten worse since this comment so I'm hoping something will give! Take care!
Hello always great information!! Can you talk about hair lost due hypothyroidism meds. My hair has become so thin I have bold spots I have tried everything. My thyroid levels are fine on the correct meds I don’t know what else to do😔
Same for me. I’m on the proper dose of meds but I still go through sheds for no reason and it doesn’t grow back much.
Can you talk about scalp conditions like folliculitis and what products are good for that.
Wash hair with fresh aloe vera gel. It gets sudsy similar to shampoo, cleanses, anti inflammatory, anti fungal, anti microbial, moisturizes, shines and strengthens hair.
Wash aloe, cut edges off, Peel off one side of skin, scoop the gel out with spoon(saves time), put it in blender(do not add water or oils), strain it or it will leave pieces in your hair for weeks(very difficult to get out of hair), strain blended aloe atleast twice in a nut milk bag or stocking, a nylon nut milk bag(what I use) will save you time & make it easier. Wash hair, rinse, can leave in as a conditioner, massage scalp with aloe(in a applicator bottle, for ease) during the week, moisturize hair. I use camille rose leave in collection line- honey, only, on hair not scalp. Honey is also a humectant like aloe. Your scalp will heal and hair will flourish. Always apply moisture to wet hair for best results.
The yellow resin that comes from aloe-let it drain or rinse aloe after peeling off one side of the leaf/aloe skin, then scoop aloe and blend to as close to liquid as possible. Process takes 10minutes or less. Plant aloe in yard.

@@hyrumyung651 hii you're welcome 😊 no problem at all. Everything we needs is right here straight from the Earth.
@@sunflowersoleil7374 Hello, how can you preserve strained aloe vera gel and is using store bought version good?
Can anything be done for the hair loss that often comes with advanced age? My mother is 93 and upset at how much hair she is losing. You can see her scalp now.
Good question and would make a good topic. Women of all ages care about what their hair looks like and don't all want to wear wigs. I bet your mom is just beautiful, give her a hug for me! :-)
Check if her scalp skin is thin. If it's thin it means her scalp is not producing enough E2 (estrogen derivative) needed for hair growth.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us freely. Your time & research are greatly appreciated 🙏🏿❤
Thanks doc. This video information was so educational. I did not know Which Hazel was good for the scalp. I know its good for the face. I use it as a toner. I have a essential oil kit. It has all the good ones included rosemary, orange oil, lavender, tee tree, peppeerment. I plan to try the hemp oil and tee tree mix. I will start back to using my hair steamer. I wear it out as a facial steamer. It has an attachment to steam the face. I'll get back to steaming my scalp as well. You asked a question and here is what I would like you to talk about as far as the scalp go. I pretty much have all the items you mentioned in this video already here at home with me all but hemp seed oil anyway, what I also learned from his video is to use products correctly to get the best results. I've learned you can have several productd but if they arent t used at the right time (before shampooing or after steaming etc.) or with the right other product you want get the best results. This was a very educational video.
Congratulations on 100k ! So well deserved! I love this channel!
Thank you so much!! :-)
Thank you for stewarding your gift so well! Can you please assist with recommendations and experimenting with grease vs oils for healthy hydrated low porosity scalp care? Which brands? and how often to apply directly to the scalp? With much gratitude, blessings ❤️
Can you talk about bald spots/hair loss, are there any ingredients we can incorporate in our hair care routine that can prevent or slow this if prevention is impossible?
I experience this about a year ago. Hair was coming out in clumps. All I had to do was just touch it and handfuls of hair came out. Before this, I had shoulder length hair. After this, almost bald. Went to doctor and really no help. Was a waste of my time. Anyway I became very depressed. I started browsing TH-cam and came across some videos and I learned a lot and started applying these things and my hair now is pass my ear lobe and came back thicker in a year’s time. These are the things I did and still doing..... I wash my hair once a week using a shampoo brush or massager because it stimulates blood flow for hair growth. Then I use a deep conditioner or mask with a plastic cap under heated dryer for 15-20 minutes. Let hair cool down then rinse with cool water to close pores and lock in moisture. Then I use a leave in conditioner. Detangle with a wide tooth comb. Then I use a Styling cream for more moisture. Clip ends when they look all stringy etc because split ends causes more breakage. I sleep with a Satin bonnet. Cotton dries out your hair which causes breakage. I also use Jamaican and most recently Haitian Black Castor Oil with Lavender several times a week. I take iron tablets ( my iron was low and this definitely causes hair loss) I take vitamin D, turmeric ( aids in inflammation ) and a multivitamin and drink water.
And I forgot also to strengthen my hair, I give myself a protein treatment every 2-3 months.
I've read that rosemary essential oil is supposed to work as good as whatever is in Rogaine. Seems worth a try since it's all natural. Also, be sure to take the vitamin "biotin" every day. That helps most people.
@@helgag.9866 biotin didn’t help me. I always had shoulder length hair and for numerous reasons my hair started coming out in clumps and I even had a bald spot in the back of my head. Doctor was a waste of time. Anyway I started watching videos and applied these things with amazing results. Shampoo once a week using a shampoo brush, deep conditioning with plastic cap with heat for 20 -30 minutes then let hair cool down for 5 minutes then rinse with cool water to close pores and lock in the moisture. Detangle with a wide tooth comb. Jamaican Black Castor Oil with Lavender or with Peppermint to also stimulate hair growth and a multivitamin everyday along with vitamin C and turmeric. And drink water!!! Now my hair is pass my ear lobe and it came back thick!! Make sure when you’re lounging around and go to bed please wear a satin bonnet or scarf and trim your ends only when needed.
@@pamelamccants2877 Wow! Okay, thanks!
Is it okay to spray our natural 4c hair with water to hydrate it?
Please do a video on DHT and how to keep it from causing hair loss.
Oral saw palmetto and coconut oil will reduce serum dht. Topical rosemary oil + peppermint oil + coconut oil will reduce scalp dht, add sunflower oil to activate ppar receptor to increase scalp fat gain which promotes scalp estrogen production needed for hair growth. The root problem is not dht, dht is also needed to signal hair growth, the problem is what causes dht to increase which is inflammation in the gut and scalp.
@@manny769 Thank you! Thank you so much! I can't tell you how much your advice means to me. God bless you.

Ok, this video has been one of THE MOST informative and well-researched I have seen in a long time. Your content is always wonderful. I’m just going to say anything and everything hair and skin care related and I will soak it up. Thank you, Lovely Lady! ❤️
Girl, you are glowing. The hair, the skin, the makeup, the nails! 😀😍💯
I have thinning around my edges and I am sure scalp health is key to stimulating my hair to regrow. I would be interested in methods to regrow the hairline.
Your videos are always so informative. Thank you! I would love to see a video on DHT, the causes in maturing women and how to combat the resulting thinning. Thx!
Oooh, Yeah, Judi S. Both of my older sisters are going BALD because they don''t do what I tell them, and they don't watch Curly Chemistry. A good talk on DHT and thinning would be Wonderful.

Change her diet. Is she allergic to milk, eggs, nuts and seeds? Is she digesting a high carb/sugar diet?

Great information & I’m washing my hair Sunday ( consistant wash day) my scalp will be itching Sunday morning 😂. Thank you as always
As a bald man on a journey to regrow, and recondition my hair to grow all over my head - especially in the front - this information is priceless! I'd like to know how do the ACV rinse, and I'm also interested to know if the needle type derma rollers are damaging for the scalp. I've been using one for about two months on my scalp, and I've honestly have stimulated alot more growth than I have previously. Anyway, THANK U!
Hi - I've just watched your video and found it very informative. My question is if you have alopecia or hair loss in various different sections of your scalp how do you manage this with oils? Does this mean the follicles will never grow back? Are you able to do a video on this topic?
How often should we use apple cider vinegar
I love all of your great tips and I definitely use acv rinses mixed with tea tree oil for itchy scalp, as well as for a scalp/product buildup cleanser!! But I must try witch hazel!!💖🙏🏼🙏🏼
I just found you earlier today! I spent the better part of my morning and afternoon glued watching your videos. I learned so much and today bought some of the products you recommended for my low porosity hair. THEY WORKED! My hair was so moisturized and for the first time, I saw my curl patterns. I have one question: what other oils besides hemp seed do you recommend for unclogging follicles?
Awesome channel! I look forward to watching your other videos. God bless you!
Hello… since u have low porosity hair, hemp seed has too big of a molecule to penetrate.. Google “non comedogenic oils for low porosity hair” and you’ll get a list…
I also have low porosity and I use grape seed and sunflower oil… there’s jojoba, argan, grape seed, safflower, sunflower, and SOO many oils, but u just wanna make sure it’s either 0-2 on the scale… meaning they won’t clog ur follicles… hope this helps!
It's so refreshing to see a black woman talking about hair care in a realistic way. I would like to see a video about central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA) the cause and how to treat it...💐
This is great information. I have a product that contains witch hazel and I thought it would be drying to the hair.
Thanks for another informative video❤️❤️Can you please do a video on traction alopecia and other types of hair loss issues.
Yes please it would be a good topic to discuss!!
I love the fact that you did a video about scalp health know I'm late to the party on this one but I'm glad I found it everybody talks about hair if your scalp isn't healthy or clogged the hair will not grow out of it thank you so much for inviting all of us .and specially me LOL about scalp heath I knew a lot of the stuff you were talking about but it's nice to know that somewhat of what I'm thinking is true
Just discovered you and subbed immediately. So informative. Thank you for helping my curls live their best life. 😊
Oh wow, you made it to 100k,congratulations dear. I wish you all the best. God bless you. Thank you for all the information. 🥰
Thank you so much 🤗
Great video! I think a scalpcare video we really could benefit from is whether or not oil is beneficial to the scalp. I feel like a lot of presenters talk about oiling their scalp and why it doesn’t work for them, but I don’t feel like they include the benefits of oil to the scalp for other people that may need it or how you know to steer clear of scalp oils or when/how to incorporate them, if you should.
Great topic! I'll add it. :-)
Thanks god my hairs are growing strong. After 10 years .black castor and. Ginger mask. Amen
Medicine and the scalp like met Forman and high blood pressure pills are they stopping the hair growth?
Thank you so much!!! After menopause my hair has thinned. So I hope this will help me too!
A topic that interest me is how to stimulate growth an moisturization for a person that has locs and does not use oils or anything with slip in their hair.
Just spray your hair with water.
I like to know:
1. How soap nuts work on our hair and
2. How to make a conditioning bar soap for black hair
