Hi everyone ! I just wanted to let you know that I used the honey-yogurt mixture for 1.5 hours, as well as exited the shower with cold hair, AND wetted it once more (coldly) from the sink. Oh yeah, I ALSO dried it with a t-shirt. Results... This works like a charm! I swear my hair has never been so beautiful. I got compliments, I got looks, my god it was amazing. TONIGHT I'm going to apply the coconut milk and lime mixture :))). This is so exciting I'm so happy, and I feel so beautiful and natural.
Oh my god you are my twin !! except I'm 14 lol :D Little advice, do not, I repeat do NOT fall for chemically strenghtening!! It's gonna look so pretty and "healthy" but after like 6 months it's gonna be the worst ever ! 10x frizzier ! Trust me I learned it the hard way :'( :'( What I would recommend you is giving it a lot of natural masks, what works the best for me is a little something my mom used to whip up for me, so basically just half an avocado and a tablespoon or two of olive oil (make sur it's super good quality :D) and just let them sit in your hair for like half an hour or so, and then wash your hair REALLY well so that none of the avocado is left :) And try to put just a teeeny bit of olive oil in your hair after you get out of the shower :) Also don't go for shampoos and conditionners that say they're gonna make your hair silkier and stuff like that, because buying those products is only gonna add stupid chemicals that you don't want :/ Another little thing that kinda works for me is the onion mask that Andrea did just recently, and also try and make everything you put in your hair organic and natural, and try to minimize the products you use in general, I cut them down so much that basically all I use now is Shampoo and leave in conditionner !! I used to have SO many products xD Sorry for making such a huge text, I just kinda felt for you since I really miss my shiny wavy hair :'( so much that I gave you so many tips haha :') lol but don't worry I still have a million up my sleeve :D
Tysm and i was going to do the chemical straightening thing but i search up stuff like how to tame frizz and this lady said your hair gets worser when the chemicals come off.Also since you told me this ill try to use the first recipe every time i wash meh hair astop using products to tame frizz (i have like a bunch) so ty dis really helped :) :3
Maria Proskurina G.G.m Yeah well that's just how unfair life is, I'm pretty sure that why all our hair was ruined when we grew up was because of either chemicals, or filthy humid air, or something like that I mean my hair got ruined because when I was super young like probably 8 or 7, I was a swimmer, and I used to shower by myself because It was too awkward for me to let anyone see me naked even if it's my mom (I'm still that way lol I'm just a little more grown up xD) but I really wish I let my mom wash my hair for me, because it's me not washing my hair correctly, leaving shampoo and Chlorine in it and washing my hair everyday made it super dry and frizzy so :/
I've been using coconut oil and rinsing my hair with cold water for months now, and yes, it makes a HUGE difference. May hair grows really fast, and it stays smooth. I do dye it, and all the natural stuff I use on it keeps it healthy to counter the dye ^o^
I dye my hair too but I don't dye my hair with real dye. I know it may sound crazy but I dye my hair with kool aid. The dye lasts it for a month (sometimes even weeks). I have dark hair so some of the kool aids don't work on my hair :( Really I love the results try it out! Use the unsweetened kind btw!
How do you use the coconut oil? Like as a conditioner or just after shower. Because my hair gets really frizzy and poofy and I use gel to tame it but I don't like it because I feel like it drys my hair out so I really want to try the coconut oil
What I do is I massage the oil in my hair let it sit for however long (At least 5 minutes, you can even do over night if you wish) Then wash it out, you may have to do 2 washes, depending on the thickness of your hair. You could also put 1 part coconut oil (melted) and 3 parts water in a spray bottle and spray a little (not to soak it, or it will get too oily) of that into your hair after a shower, and brush it through, add a few drops of essential oil if you wish. Every hair type is different so I hope this works for you, good luck!
I love the conditioner and olive oil one I've used it twice and I can see a huge difference in my frizz, my hairs shiny and so much less frizzy and static !! Thanks so much Andrea ! Xx
I am in the process of using the coconut one and I'm so excited to see how it turns out! I used the virgin oil one and was very happy with the rests :)
When I get out the shower, I put some olive oil on my wet hair and it weighs my hair down enough so when it air drys its nice and curly and not too much like a poofy afro. DONT put the olive oil on your roots just keep it from your ears down. Its a quick way to style my hair and it conditions at the same time, just dont do it too often to avoid build up.
Andrea, I just had to THANK YOU for this! THese treatments work miracles, and way better than anything I've bought in the store. Also, I've found that if you leave the coconut milk uncovered in the fridge for a day, it gets to a yogurt-like consistency and is way easier to apply to your hair. If you leave just a little bit in a bowl in the fridge for a week or so, it turns into a butter you can apply to dry hair as a leave-in balm to get rid of frizzies.
i Like that you mentioned that cold water closes out pores aswell the cold water naturally turns the coconut oil into a solid thus +defense verse humidity/frizz by also locking in moister, Cold pressed EV Coconut oil still is a good choose.
You are so beautiful and natural! I also love the fact that you are intelligent and articulate with no added silly-waste-of-time-chatter. Thanks for the tips and tricks...I will be sure to let you know how it worked!
I swear to god, I have straight shiny hair when I was a kid. I usually teased all those frizzy haired girl and got a karma. when puberty hits me, my hair was so damn puffy and frizzy, I sometimes want to shave my hair so I'll be bold. but well, I searched this, and DOES THIS REALLY WORKS?!
i tried the coconut milk and lemon recipe cuz i had no lime but it turned out perfect!! its also good for when you go to the beach like an after conditioning treatment!
Andrea have you ever tried using jojoba oil on your hair? It's great for frizzy hair with the added bonus of making your hair grow. I use it on my curly hair. I make DIY videos about natural video remedies in my humble all natural beauty channel. You might find it helpful :) xx
Also, other good tip is that don't cut your hair too short. The shorter and lighter your hair is, the puffier it gets. Plus, I recommend to tie your hair when you go to sleep. That way when you wake up your hair won't look like after an explosion, like mine does. I braid my hair loosely (I also use some bobby pins to set it right) before I go to sleep. I'd use some kind of night cap too if I found a good one. I bet it would work too. I've been using the olive oil thing and cold water for over two years now and they work. I think I'll start using the coconut DIY too, just because my hair is super curly and frizzy. 8)
A lot of people try to use olive oil, either plain or mixed with something, and find that it is too heavy or too greasy for their hair. (I have baby fine hair, can't use it.) 2 great alternatives are argon oil or coconut oil. A note about coconut oil for those who are unfamiliar with it. It has a low melting point. Kept in my cabinet, it is liquid in the summer, and solid (like shortening) in the winter. To melt it for use, put it in a small bowl or jar and place it in a larger bowl or pan of hot water. I've heard that microwaving it or heating it in a pot ruins some of the beneficial properties. I haven't been able to confirm this, but until I do I'll play it safe.
There is seriously no amount of thank yous I could ever say that would describe how greatful I am for your helpful tips my hair is frizzy and thin and has seriously no volume at all no matter what I do but with your tips and tricks my hair is soft and healthy and amazing and your sea salt spray seriously made my acne nearly dissapear thank you sooooo much
Andrea!! I thought you might like the video I uploaded because its a DIY video about making lipsticks out of CRAYONS. I know right? It sounds crazy but it really works and I just thought you would like it considering you LOVE lipstick and you are the queen of diy so you might really enjoy doing it! Please thumbs this up so she can see it!!
Or if you're lazy and don't really like to wait hours with hair masks on,but still want great hair you can just use coconut oil with your conditioner every time you wash your hair! Mix some coconut oil with your conditioner (super lazy girls may put the oil directly in the cointaner,just saying),wet you hair and apply the mixture ( not too much on your scalp,plenty on the tips) and leave it for few minutes while you go on with your shower/bath scrubbing,shaving and everything.If you have curly hair you should gently brush it with this conditioner on then rinse it off and apply&rinse your shampoo as usual and... you‘re done. Air dry or use a dryer with diffuser after styling your hair with some styling foam or gel or whatever you fancy. Yes,the shampoo is AFTER the conditioner to remove the extra oil moisture.
It's better to comb your hair while you have the mixture on it and you should definitely leave it on for some minutes while you go on with your shower/bath.Rinsing the conditioner and oil and applying shampoo (this,on the other hand,you just rub it on your scalp and then rinse off quickly,don't let it sit too much on the lenght of your hair) should be the last thing in your shower routine.
I tried the coconut milk+lime juice and not sure about the frizz but sure as hell will do it again. Loved how much softer and smoother the hair feels to the touch, it's something special.
How does lime help hair? My first assumption is that lime is highly acidic and would strip your hair of the oils it needs. I can see how itll clean your hair as it does with skin, but im curious how that wouldnt dry out frizzy hair
Hair is naturally slightly acidic, but the alkalis in shampoo strip the acid away from the hair, thus drying it out and frizzing it. The acid in the lime restores the natural acid mantle in the hair, making it softer and smoother. Hope this helps :)
Coconut milk and lime worked just perfect for me, it was quick like applying oil as I used a hair color tippy container, and it did make my hair silky soft just in one use. I literally can say they look from an advertisement, not bragging just humbled and want to share it with people who have suffered frizz for decades 💕
Anything more severe then these? My hair is POOFY and VERY curly. Like I'll use one of these, shampoo it , condition it, and once it dries, its still poofy. :/
This video helped so much I recommend this for curly frizzy dried dyed hair my hair is now frizzy free loved it these recipes rock especially the last one
Nice tips Andrea! Only thing I have to add is that the tip for rinsing with cold water is only useful is your hair is already damaged OR is naturally high in porosity. That means that if you hair soaks up water quickly but dries quickly too, then that tip may work. Otherwise, if you have hair with low porosity that takes forever to get wet and takes forever to dry, rinsing with cold water does not really help. That has been the case for me, at least. Great tips otherwise! :)
Thanks for sharing the DIY conditioners! I have frizzy hair so I hope that the conditioner & advice you gave towards the end of the video will help to get rid of frizz!
Andrea!! I thought you might like the video I recently because its a DIY video about making lipsticks out of CRAYONS. I know right? It sounds crazy but it really works and I just thought you would like it considering you LOVE lipstick and you are the queen of diy so you might really enjoy doing it! Please thumbs this up so she can see it!!
Please DO NOT attempt this1:23 or-else you´ll end up with a missing thumb sooner or later! :D Other than that, these are really cool tips, i never put any products in my hair, i just wash it with baking soda and apple cider vinegar and i have beautiful natural curls, but i´ll definitely try some of these!! Cheers!
jasmine mac Hahaha!! :D Nope! I never said i did! I was just advising the Young YOLOS out there not to adopt such a technique when using a knife! It´s just a very bad idea! Don´t you think!?
I use it whenever I'm going to wash the hair, leave it for 1 hour and then always wash it before washing! and sometimes I put a little after washing tips ;)
so you put the coconut milk before you wash your hair? n then wash it out and apply shampoo n conditioner? how well does it work on your hair? my curls are killing me!
I feel like andrea puts a lot of effort in her video's, a lot more than other youtubers so I just wanna take te time and say thanks, UR AMAZING! you didn't have to try 3 different masks and wash ur hair over and over again but you did. On top of that you squeezed it all into 6 minutes and I personally am greatful xx I LUV U!
I do an egg-yolk mask about every month just mix an egg yolk and a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil for about a min, add a cup of water, heat it up on the stove until its warm, and then apply all over your hair except for roots and let it dry to the point where its just barely a little wet. Wash it out with cold water, and there ya go :) defiantly gonna try some of these too ! c:
I don't get it, you are gorgeous you don't need to enhance your hairstyle. I on the other hand, am ugly + I have the most disgusting type of hair ever (Hagrid is goals for me). Could you do a video for people who's hair have no shape but incredible volume and frizzy disgusting rat tails popping out everywhere? Or is it just me in that situation? ._.
You have said it all. I connect with this. None of my family members really get my struggle except for a white aunt as a half Chinese with super frizzy hair (compared to a lot of relatives) and straightening doesn't help. My hair really has no natural shape and isn't even that curly or wavy or even straight. It is slightly coarse and will easily become wavy when I braid dry hair at night but it comes with the price of frizz in three hours.
My only tip, is instead of combing out your hair outside after a shower; try combing your hair during a co-wash (meaning your "shampooing" your scalp w/ conditioner) while your still in the shower, and after your done combing rinse in cold water and re-apply conditioner and let it sit, and again rinse in cold water. After that - while I'm still in the shower - I apply my product if Im going to use any that day. I try to do everything in the shower; I believe the only thing that should be done outside the shower is waiting for your hair to dry and/or using a diffuser like you do.
Also, going to the Co Washing technique really helps with curly hair, and if you cannot do that, make sure your shampoo has no sulfates and your conditioner has no silicone. HUGE difference.
The Cocnut and Lime (I used Lemon Juice! ^.^) combination really worked, i mixed it with the damaged hair strengthening mask and it left my hair looking and feeling amazing! Thank you soo much! x
i used the coconut+ egg from another video and also the coconut milk+lemon. I have lots of hair and I left it over night. I used the coconut milk+lemon twice a week and coconut+ egg once a month. you will see the difference after the first try and you become addicted to it after 3-4 times. and as she said no heat for the hair. I hope it helps :)
Hi. :)) I used the honey-yogurt mixture and I gotta tell you, it worked so well that I got compliments and gasps all over. I felt so beautiful. I thought it would help to share that, but really that's all I've tried. Tonight I'm trying the coconut milk and lime
hey Lola Seron I tried the coconut milk and lime. Didn't go well for me to be honest :/ Didn't work really. Id still use the honey-yogurt mixture. Did you try any yet?
You are like the only person on Facebook I've ever seen with hair like mine. Thank you SOOOO Much for these tips! I've been doing the "rewet" thing every since I realized that the common factor for my best hair ever was letting it dry from totally soaked (like after a day in the ocean)
I use this recipe when I want to mimic the "beach waves" I get from swimming in the ocean. Epsom salt can be found in any drugstore - do not substitute with anything else. I leave out the sea salt for softer waves. > DIY Salt Water Spray Recipe < •1 cup of hot water (not boiling) •2 tablespoons Epsom Salt (more for extra texture) •1/2 tsp Sea Salt (optional but adds stiffness) •1 teaspoon aloe vera gel •1/2 tsp of Earth's Nectar conditioner Shake up ingredients, spritz heavily throughout hair, scrunch and let dry naturally (or use a diffuser with low heat if you're in a hurry) for long-lasting waves.
My hair isn't curly, it's naturally straight, but all the little baby hairs that aren't as long as my normal hair curl up and stick off my head and look really weird :( and tips?
Rachel Worden yeah it may sound a little weirod lol but take a clean tooth brush preferable new and put some gel on it and brus ur baby hair down and to what ever side u would like it works for me good luck
for my whole life i've been putting chemicals in my hair straightening blow drying it, never in my life did i wear my hair naturally curly DOWN to school. but now it's different!
And also, rinsing with cold water (which closing up the follicles) allows more light to reflect off of your roots. Therefore, your hair will look shinier.
Do everything she said, it's very good, I tried it. But don't comb your hair when it's damp, I lost half of my hair today. So don't comb or brush it when it's damp.
I tried all three of these on myself and my sister because we both have really frizzy hair. I have long, coarse hair and the coconut milk and lime did not work for my hair type but it worked really well for my sister, who has long, bleached straight hair. :) The yogurt and honey one worked with both of our hair types. My favorite was the evoo and conditioner because it was the easiest. XD Lol. Thank you so much for the help!
THE THIRD ONE omg my hair was so so wasted and i started using the olive oil and omg my hair is SO soft now and its shiny and it used to be tangled all the time but now even when its dry i can put my fingers through it its just AMAZING
+Leticia Beathriz (potterhead) Thank God! I was wondering if the third one worked! Everyone in these comments just talk about the first and second ones, I'm so glad to hear that the third one works :)
you welcome c: btw: i know im a little late but if you do use do NOT use more than twice a week and only do if your hair really needs bc ic can get a little too oily if you do
ANDREA! I have basically the same hair as you & Brittany, they some of my curls are coils, some are S-Waves and some are just frizzy patches towards my neck/underside area. I straighten my hair about once a week and leave it straight for almost 3 days so I wont keep straightening it throughout the week. I now have heat damage to the bottoms though, how can i reverse it and bring back my natural curls :(? i know you sometimes apply heat to your hair via blow dryer -_-
You should do a protein treatment with a egg and coconut oil..but don't do it often cause too much protein is bad maybe once every two or three months and you should also deep condition every week with coconut oil and honey..stay away from the straightener for a while also let your hair air dry till it's about 70% dry and then blow dry..and even when you blow use a heat protectant like the tresseme one..hope that helps..
Awe thank you! I will definitely take this under serious consideration, your so nice :) You should totally check out my channel! in the process of a big transition with it but i could really use some more subscribers. Thanks so muchh
I've been slowly getting trims actually! found that rather than getting the BIG cut, trims every month will help repair it gradually!! Thanks for your advice, Check out my channel 50 Random Questions Tag coming soon !
She's not hating on how she cut the lime. When you use that hand held juicer the lime goes the other way than what Andrea did. That's why she wasn't getting much juice out
I use coconut oil put a shower cap on and then go in the hair drier....I then shampoo and condition as usual..I do the coconut oil thing every other week.... The t shirt to dry my hair instead of a towel has definitely helped calm my fizz...thanks!!!!
I love your very practical and easy DIY's! I'm especially fond of the coconut oil and lime juice...my hair seems to love anything with coconut. Thanks for a great video and take care, Linda :-)
A tip for people that want to thicken the coconut milk recipe but you don't have corn starch, just use flour! It works just as good, the only thing is you have to use more volume of the flour than you would have of the corn starch.
I am heading to a tropical environment in a couple of days. How often do you feel I need to do this and would Meyers lemons work well too? I am so excited about trying this!
I found that curling my hair with my fingers has really reduced frizz! It seriously has done wonders for my hair, so curly gals I advice you finger curl your hair. When so use a leave in conditioner.
omg you for all 3 masks i don't have both ingredients and i can't find them anywhere .. so i decided to mix up some lemons , honey , olive oil , yoghurt and conditioner and let me tell you it worked AMAZINGLY! THANK YOU
if your hair is really dry and frizzy, then using shampoo only maybe once or twice a week shouldn't be too much of a problem. the extra oils will hydrate your hair. if you have fine, straight, shiny hair then you should shampoo more often.... also the t-shirt thing is so true!
I have super thick curly hair and realized that it is really helpful for the texture of the curl to stay nice and pretty, to de-tangle my hair while in the shower with my conditioner still in it; it helps me not damage it as much and saves me about 15 minutes of struggling to detangle it. I let it sit in a bun while I shave and then rinse out in shower, so when I come out I can just towel dry and add product :P
I love your channel, I used all the remedies from this video and other videos for hair and my hair looks healthy !!! I tried many many many ......many things and non worked. but after did what you said my hair look so hot now, I feel in love with it and I sleep with it every night I love you and I love your channel, you are the best youtuber eveeeeeeer !!!
Cold water tip is definitely the best and easiest tip in my opinion. I used to wash mine win hot water when I was in the shower, but I started to wash mine with cold and i swear, my hair is still a tinse frizzy but def not as bad as it was before :)
Hi everyone ! I just wanted to let you know that I used the honey-yogurt mixture for 1.5 hours, as well as exited the shower with cold hair, AND wetted it once more (coldly) from the sink. Oh yeah, I ALSO dried it with a t-shirt. Results...
This works like a charm! I swear my hair has never been so beautiful. I got compliments, I got looks, my god it was amazing. TONIGHT I'm going to apply the coconut milk and lime mixture :))). This is so exciting I'm so happy, and I feel so beautiful and natural.
does it work immediately?
Amani Akacha ^.^ it did for me. Perfectly right after my first try. :) Have you tried it yet? Did not work for you
+Dana Alkhodari it did definitely work, I liked it
+Dana Alkhodari it hasn't had much effect on my hair. what kinda hair do u have?
+Natalie Pereira-Zaldivar Yea, I have type 3b hair, was wondering because I don't have as tight curls Xx
Im 12. When i was small i had wavy shiny hair but as i got older it turned frizzy ive never put heat on it or dyed it.
Oh my god you are my twin !! except I'm 14 lol :D Little advice, do not, I repeat do NOT fall for chemically strenghtening!! It's gonna look so pretty and "healthy" but after like 6 months it's gonna be the worst ever ! 10x frizzier ! Trust me I learned it the hard way :'( :'(
What I would recommend you is giving it a lot of natural masks, what works the best for me is a little something my mom used to whip up for me, so basically just half an avocado and a tablespoon or two of olive oil (make sur it's super good quality :D) and just let them sit in your hair for like half an hour or so, and then wash your hair REALLY well so that none of the avocado is left :) And try to put just a teeeny bit of olive oil in your hair after you get out of the shower :)
Also don't go for shampoos and conditionners that say they're gonna make your hair silkier and stuff like that, because buying those products is only gonna add stupid chemicals that you don't want :/ Another little thing that kinda works for me is the onion mask that Andrea did just recently, and also try and make everything you put in your hair organic and natural, and try to minimize the products you use in general, I cut them down so much that basically all I use now is Shampoo and leave in conditionner !!

im 12 aswell and i had awsome hair but as soon as i turned 11 it was a disaster even though i havent used heat ever!

Uchiha Kaida thank you so much going to start trying that :)
The coconut lime one made my hair super soft and it works! My fav part it's NATURAL..!❤️
I love the conditioner and olive oil one I've used it twice and I can see a huge difference in my frizz, my hairs shiny and so much less frizzy and static !! Thanks so much Andrea ! Xx
So, I gave the coconut milk and lime concoction a try and it worked! My hair is soft and less frizzy and super shiny...Thanks for the advice!
Kathleen H. I've been wondering about this one bought the stuff today to try it! I love my curls but the frizz makes it hard to like

I like the 2nd because you can eat the rest while you're waiting...
Lol
Aurora Sullivan 😂😂
i tried the coconut milk and lemon recipe cuz i had no lime but it turned out perfect!! its also good for when you go to the beach like an after conditioning treatment!
You can close your hair cuticle with cold aloe Vera juice. It helps with detangling and shine
Andrea have you ever tried using jojoba oil on your hair? It's great for frizzy hair with the added bonus of making your hair grow. I use it on my curly hair. I make DIY videos about natural video remedies in my humble all natural beauty channel. You might find it helpful :) xx
OMG!!! It so worked. I used the coconut milk and lime. Now my hair is curly, detangled, and not frizzy!!
how long did you keep it in your hair before rinsing?
Kaylaaa A good I’m going to use that one then
Also, other good tip is that don't cut your hair too short. The shorter and lighter your hair is, the puffier it gets.

Andrea!! I thought you might like the video I uploaded because its a DIY video about making lipsticks out of CRAYONS. I know right? It sounds crazy but it really works and I just thought you would like it considering you LOVE lipstick and you are the queen of diy so you might really enjoy doing it! Please thumbs this up so she can see it!!
Lol you put you lemon the wrong way in the lemon squeezer gurl.!
...that's a lime
+Kuroshi Michi lol I love how you just get between 2 people talking bout lemons and then u finally tell them it's a lime😂
I noticed that!
lol I thought that too

Or if you're lazy and don't really like to wait hours with hair masks on,but still want great hair you can just use coconut oil with your conditioner every time you wash your hair!
Mix some coconut oil with your conditioner (super lazy girls may put the oil directly in the cointaner,just saying),wet you hair and apply the mixture ( not too much on your scalp,plenty on the tips) and leave it for few minutes while you go on with your shower/bath scrubbing,shaving and everything.If you have curly hair you should gently brush it with this conditioner on then rinse it off and apply&rinse your shampoo as usual and... you‘re done. Air dry or use a dryer with diffuser after styling your hair with some styling foam or gel or whatever you fancy.
Yes,the shampoo is AFTER the conditioner to remove the extra oil moisture.
i have curly hair, after i apply the conditioner and coconut oil should i comb it out and then rinse it ? or should i leave it on and rinse later?
It's better to comb your hair while you have the mixture on it and you should definitely leave it on for some minutes while you go on with your shower/bath.Rinsing the conditioner and oil and applying shampoo (this,on the other hand,you just rub it on your scalp and then rinse off quickly,don't let it sit too much on the lenght of your hair) should be the last thing in your shower routine.
Also wrapping your hair in a satin scarf or a sleeping on a satin pillowcase helps keep moisture which reduces frizz
I tried the coconut milk+lime juice and not sure about the frizz but sure as hell will do it again. Loved how much softer and smoother the hair feels to the touch, it's something special.
How does lime help hair? My first assumption is that lime is highly acidic and would strip your hair of the oils it needs. I can see how itll clean your hair as it does with skin, but im curious how that wouldnt dry out frizzy hair
Hair is naturally slightly acidic, but the alkalis in shampoo strip the acid away from the hair, thus drying it out and frizzing it. The acid in the lime restores the natural acid mantle in the hair, making it softer and smoother. Hope this helps :)
+kïttÿċät bäïlëÿ That's actually very informative.
Jen Rianne thank you :)
i bought that same yogurt a few days ago because i thought it was going to taste good WRONG! But now i found a reason to use it! Thank you so much! :D
the honey and yogurt one is good for acne too !!!!
Add tumeric powder to the mix and it's amazing for acne!!
I rinse with cold water and I LOVE it! Not only does it reduce frizz, but it gives my hair beautiful shine! :)
Coconut milk and lime worked just perfect for me, it was quick like applying oil as I used a hair color tippy container, and it did make my hair silky soft just in one use. I literally can say they look from an advertisement, not bragging just humbled and want to share it with people who have suffered frizz for decades 💕
Random but am I the only one who squeezes my lemons with the lemon part facing down because she did it weird
she didn't do it weird??
Haha she didn't do it right that why
lol me too
You make me nervous when you cut the limes!!
Tiffany Hau IK SHE HAD HER HAND RIGHT UNDER THE KNIFE 😖
Anything more severe then these? My hair is POOFY and VERY curly. Like I'll use one of these, shampoo it , condition it, and once it dries, its still poofy. :/
Same with me and I hate it also my hair is so tangly I just hate it
its horrible because my ends are just frizzy and the only thing that works Is exspensive stuff
***** ok thanks im gonna try that
thanks ***** for the tip and does it make your hair really greasy and nasty looking
***** Ohh, never heard of that.. Any specific brands you'd reccomend?
This video helped so much I recommend this for curly frizzy dried dyed hair my hair is now frizzy free loved it these recipes rock especially the last one
Nice tips Andrea! Only thing I have to add is that the tip for rinsing with cold water is only useful is your hair is already damaged OR is naturally high in porosity. That means that if you hair soaks up water quickly but dries quickly too, then that tip may work. Otherwise, if you have hair with low porosity that takes forever to get wet and takes forever to dry, rinsing with cold water does not really help. That has been the case for me, at least. Great tips otherwise! :)
you're so pretty and so helpful!
i have a question. When you said, stay away from the heat. like a flat iron, you were using a dryer, so is it okay to use a dryer?
If you have curly hair, make sure you use a diffuser with a hair dryer(yes, it's okay) because without it, you can frizz and damage. Good Luck! :)
Get the lime and the coconut and mix it all up lol *insert bad Jamaican accent here*
Darn! You beat me to it. lol (Ear worm now, can't get rid of it.)
I recommend the OGX quenching + coconut curls shampoo because it's a sulfate-free shampoo and the same conditioner👍🏼
Thanks for sharing the DIY conditioners! I have frizzy hair so I hope that the conditioner & advice you gave towards the end of the video will help to get rid of frizz!
Andrea!! I thought you might like the video I recently because its a DIY video about making lipsticks out of CRAYONS. I know right? It sounds crazy but it really works and I just thought you would like it considering you LOVE lipstick and you are the queen of diy so you might really enjoy doing it! Please thumbs this up so she can see it!!
Please DO NOT attempt this1:23 or-else you´ll end up with a missing thumb sooner or later! :D Other than that, these are really cool tips, i never put any products in my hair, i just wash it with baking soda and apple cider vinegar and i have beautiful natural curls, but i´ll definitely try some of these!! Cheers!
jasmine mac Hahaha!! :D Nope! I never said i did! I was just advising the Young YOLOS out there not to adopt such a technique when using a knife! It´s just a very bad idea! Don´t you think!?
At first i was like ?????? and then i went back into the video and laughed much harder than i should have! :))
wet & clean
I tried the coconut milk with lime its really amazing.. thank you for the recipe.
For the lime & coconut milk treatment, do you apply the conditioner to dry or wet hair?
Either way I applied mine when it was dry and when it was wet i left it in over night and OMG IT WORKS 😍
Ok Lashanda Marie, thank you very much! Now I need to try it! 😄
I Have Natural Curly Hair And The Best Product For Me Is COCONUT OIL♥️
how do you use it
I use it whenever I'm going to wash the hair, leave it for 1 hour and then always wash it before washing! and sometimes I put a little after washing tips ;)
thanks yo!!
so you put the coconut milk before you wash your hair? n then wash it out and apply shampoo n conditioner? how well does it work on your hair? my curls are killing me!
By the way love this but your are using the lime squeezer wrong you put the lime the other way the is easier to get everything out lol
I feel like andrea puts a lot of effort in her video's, a lot more than other youtubers so I just wanna take te time and say thanks, UR AMAZING! you didn't have to try 3 different masks and wash ur hair over and over again but you did. On top of that you squeezed it all into 6 minutes and I personally am greatful xx I LUV U!
I do an egg-yolk mask about every month just mix an egg yolk and a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil for about a min, add a cup of water, heat it up on the stove until its warm, and then apply all over your hair except for roots and let it dry to the point where its just barely a little wet. Wash it out with cold water, and there ya go :) defiantly gonna try some of these too ! c:
You used the lime squeezer backwards, the lemon goes upside down! Lol
You put the lime in the Cocanut and Shake it all up
I don't get it, you are gorgeous you don't need to enhance your hairstyle.
I on the other hand, am ugly + I have the most disgusting type of hair ever (Hagrid is goals for me).
Could you do a video for people who's hair have no shape but incredible volume and frizzy disgusting rat tails popping out everywhere? Or is it just me in that situation? ._.
oh god so it's not only me someone pls make that video a thing
Bella Tincheva we need to unite in our hairy struggles
You have said it all. I connect with this. None of my family members really get my struggle except for a white aunt as a half Chinese with super frizzy hair (compared to a lot of relatives) and straightening doesn't help. My hair really has no natural shape and isn't even that curly or wavy or even straight. It is slightly coarse and will easily become wavy when I braid dry hair at night but it comes with the price of frizz in three hours.
MEE AF

My only tip, is instead of combing out your hair outside after a shower; try combing your hair during a co-wash (meaning your "shampooing" your scalp w/ conditioner) while your still in the shower, and after your done combing rinse in cold water and re-apply conditioner and let it sit, and again rinse in cold water. After that - while I'm still in the shower - I apply my product if Im going to use any that day. I try to do everything in the shower; I believe the only thing that should be done outside the shower is waiting for your hair to dry and/or using a diffuser like you do.
Also, going to the Co Washing technique really helps with curly hair, and if you cannot do that, make sure your shampoo has no sulfates and your conditioner has no silicone. HUGE difference.
Please make more DIY'S Andrea!
before i watch this video i totally trim and cut all the frizzyness and yeah cause i kinda stress out
my hair is beautiful and curly when i wash it. but the next day it's all poofy. how would you tie your hair before bedtime Andrea?
Try the pineapple trick😊👍
The Cocnut and Lime (I used Lemon Juice! ^.^) combination really worked, i mixed it with the damaged hair strengthening mask and it left my hair looking and feeling amazing! Thank you soo much! x
i used the coconut+ egg from another video and also the coconut milk+lemon. I have lots of hair and I left it over night. I used the coconut milk+lemon twice a week and coconut+ egg once a month. you will see the difference after the first try and you become addicted to it after 3-4 times. and as she said no heat for the hair. I hope it helps :)
My hair will look nice in the morning, but at the end of the day its frizzy and curls are hard and flat...
Which diy do you think is the most effective?
Hi. :)) I used the honey-yogurt mixture and I gotta tell you, it worked so well that I got compliments and gasps all over. I felt so beautiful. I thought it would help to share that, but really that's all I've tried. Tonight I'm trying the coconut milk and lime
+Dana Alkhodari how did it go?
hey Lola Seron I tried the coconut milk and lime. Didn't go well for me to be honest :/ Didn't work really. Id still use the honey-yogurt mixture. Did you try any yet?
Dana Alkhodari What type of hair do you have?
Jaimee Very curly, and very frizzy. my hair is almost (i think this what they call it) kinky
My hair fell out...it didn't work.
This video helped a lot with my frizzy hair. I had no idea that hot water did that. Thank you
You are like the only person on Facebook I've ever seen with hair like mine. Thank you SOOOO Much for these tips! I've been doing the "rewet" thing every since I realized that the common factor for my best hair ever was letting it dry from totally soaked (like after a day in the ocean)
I use this recipe when I want to mimic the "beach waves" I get from swimming in the ocean. Epsom salt can be found in any drugstore - do not substitute with anything else. I leave out the sea salt for softer waves.
> DIY Salt Water Spray Recipe <
•1 cup of hot water (not boiling)
•2 tablespoons Epsom Salt (more for extra texture)
•1/2 tsp Sea Salt (optional but adds stiffness)
•1 teaspoon aloe vera gel
•1/2 tsp of Earth's Nectar conditioner
Shake up ingredients, spritz heavily throughout hair, scrunch and let dry naturally (or use a diffuser with low heat if you're in a hurry) for long-lasting waves.
***** thank you! I'm saving this recipe!
you put the lime in the coconut and (your hair) drink(s) it all up
My hair isn't curly, it's naturally straight, but all the little baby hairs that aren't as long as my normal hair curl up and stick off my head and look really weird :( and tips?
Rachel Worden yeah it may sound a little weirod lol but take a clean tooth brush preferable new and put some gel on it and brus ur baby hair down and to what ever side u would like it works for me good luck
The t-shirt tip is sooooo helpful! I no longer need a towel! :D
I've been doing this most of my life , couldn't afford towels at one point , so tshirts were all I had lol. Back to t shirts I guess . Lol
for my whole life i've been putting chemicals in my hair straightening blow drying it, never in my life did i wear my hair naturally curly DOWN to school. but now it's different!
And also, rinsing with cold water (which closing up the follicles) allows more light to reflect off of your roots. Therefore, your hair will look shinier.
Do everything she said, it's very good, I tried it. But don't comb your hair when it's damp, I lost half of my hair today. So don't comb or brush it when it's damp.
thx:)
which worked best??🤔
+Diancis Solares (Diancis) I used coconut milk, honey and olive oil. It worked really good for my hair.
But doesn't the acid in limes hurt your hair?
nope, as long as u don't rub it on ur scalp
For the love of god- don't cut your limes like that if you like your fingers :)
I tried all three of these on myself and my sister because we both have really frizzy hair. I have long, coarse hair and the coconut milk and lime did not work for my hair type but it worked really well for my sister, who has long, bleached straight hair. :) The yogurt and honey one worked with both of our hair types. My favorite was the evoo and conditioner because it was the easiest. XD Lol. Thank you so much for the help!
I've tried the second mask before and it really works well with my hair !
Try not to mix diy products or any hair products with metal spoons as the charges in the material can react and cause harm :)
Oh thanks :o
thanks
All she used was food. Any food can be mixed with metal spoons. No chemicals were used.
The way you cut you lime 0.0
if somebody tired using one of the recipes please tell me if it works?!! :)
All this shit works! ;)
THE THIRD ONE omg my hair was so so wasted and i started using the olive oil and omg my hair is SO soft now and its shiny and it used to be tangled all the time but now even when its dry i can put my fingers through it its just AMAZING
+Leticia Beathriz (potterhead) Thank God! I was wondering if the third one worked! Everyone in these comments just talk about the first and second ones, I'm so glad to hear that the third one works :)
you welcome c: btw: i know im a little late but if you do use do NOT use more than twice a week and only do if your hair really needs bc ic can get a little too oily if you do
Leticia Beathriz Thanks for the advice!
ANDREA! I have basically the same hair as you & Brittany, they some of my curls are coils, some are S-Waves and some are just frizzy patches towards my neck/underside area. I straighten my hair about once a week and leave it straight for almost 3 days so I wont keep straightening it throughout the week. I now have heat damage to the bottoms though, how can i reverse it and bring back my natural curls :(? i know you sometimes apply heat to your hair via blow dryer -_-
You should do a protein treatment with a egg and coconut oil..but don't do it often cause too much protein is bad maybe once every two or three months and you should also deep condition every week with coconut oil and honey..stay away from the straightener for a while also let your hair air dry till it's about 70% dry and then blow dry..and even when you blow use a heat protectant like the tresseme one..hope that helps..
Awe thank you! I will definitely take this under serious consideration, your so nice :)
You should totally check out my channel!
in the process of a big transition with it but i could really use some more subscribers. Thanks so muchh
No problem and sure I'll check it out(:
The only way to repair heat damage is to cut it off.
I've been slowly getting trims actually!
found that rather than getting the BIG cut,
trims every month will help repair it gradually!!
Thanks for your advice, Check out my channel 50 Random Questions Tag coming soon !
OMG she is priyanka chopras lookalike!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She looks way more like Jordan sparks
omg yesss lal dupattaaaa
Yaa I was thinking that too
No she isnt
flowerbomb710 I used to say that years ago when Priyanka was just an India actor
i was born with naturally wavy hair
Can u use coconut oil instead
Yes☺️
I'm using the coconut milk and lime mask right now! It smells pretty weird but I think it's working. It IS very runny, and I added corn starch too!!
So happy I found a mixed girl with a beauty channel. Totally relatable videos and life savers too!
You seriously look like priyanka chopra Bollywood actress ...
Lol your lime is the wrong way. Your suppose to put it cut side down lol
Honestly, who the fuck cares. If you're going to make such a big deal and make fun of her for the way she cuts her limes.. then don't watch.
She's not hating on how she cut the lime. When you use that hand held juicer the lime goes the other way than what Andrea did. That's why she wasn't getting much juice out
Jill Hills why are you so aggressive lol
I use coconut oil put a shower cap on and then go in the hair drier....I then shampoo and condition as usual..I do the coconut oil thing every other week.... The t shirt to dry my hair instead of a towel has definitely helped calm my fizz...thanks!!!!
Brilliant tips! I have frizzy coarse caucasian hair that is wavy and extremely dry. I will definitely give these ones a go.
I love your very practical and easy DIY's! I'm especially fond of the coconut oil and lime juice...my hair seems to love anything with coconut. Thanks for a great video and take care, Linda :-)
A tip for people that want to thicken the coconut milk recipe but you don't have corn starch, just use flour! It works just as good, the only thing is you have to use more volume of the flour than you would have of the corn starch.
I am heading to a tropical environment in a couple of days. How often do you feel I need to do this and would Meyers lemons work well too? I am so excited about trying this!
This Helped me so much!!! thanks!!! I mixed aloe, conditioner, lime juice, honey, an olive oil to make amazing hair mousse!!!
Andrea is like the only youtuber that has kind of my type of hair!!! i love her!!
I found that curling my hair with my fingers has really reduced frizz! It seriously has done wonders for my hair, so curly gals I advice you finger curl your hair. When so use a leave in conditioner.
omg you for all 3 masks i don't have both ingredients and i can't find them anywhere .. so i decided to mix up some lemons , honey , olive oil , yoghurt and conditioner and let me tell you it worked AMAZINGLY! THANK YOU
How did I not see your channel before! My curly, frizzy hair is saved! Thank you!
if your hair is really dry and frizzy, then using shampoo only maybe once or twice a week shouldn't be too much of a problem. the extra oils will hydrate your hair. if you have fine, straight, shiny hair then you should shampoo more often.... also the t-shirt thing is so true!
I have super thick curly hair and realized that it is really helpful for the texture of the curl to stay nice and pretty, to de-tangle my hair while in the shower with my conditioner still in it; it helps me not damage it as much and saves me about 15 minutes of struggling to detangle it. I let it sit in a bun while I shave and then rinse out in shower, so when I come out I can just towel dry and add product :P
I love your channel, I used all the remedies from this video and other videos for hair and my hair looks healthy !!!
I tried many many many ......many things and non worked.
but after did what you said my hair look so hot now, I feel in love with it and I sleep with it every night
I love you and I love your channel, you are the best youtuber eveeeeeeer !!!
Cold water tip is definitely the best and easiest tip in my opinion. I used to wash mine win hot water when I was in the shower, but I started to wash mine with cold and i swear, my hair is still a tinse frizzy but def not as bad as it was before :)
