My biggest game changer: Triple cleansing (clarifying shampoo, strengthening shampoo, moisturizing shampoo). My curls pop & are dark & lustrous before deep conditioning. Second biggest game changer: Ignoring most assertions about high porosity hair. It's clear that these assertions are regurgitations made by people who don't have, know, or understand hi-po hair.
Do you triple cleanse every wash day?
I do the same! Every wash and detangle with the moisturizing shampoo in the shower
11 years natural
Biggest game changer- adding a conditioner with silicones back into my routine. I have very curly fine hair that tangles easily, so I need cones!
Same here ❤
My game changer has been applying heat via a heat cap after putting on my leave in conditioner. Having salt and pepper and now low porosity hair allows that 10 minutes of low heat to prep my hair for other products so well.
Biggest game changer oiling my ends every two days, helped with length retention and single strand knots
My game changers have been 1) leaving twist-outs behind and pivoting to smaller two-strand twists as my every-day style; 2) using fewer products by letting go of the tendency to try that "new thing"; SO HARD but it's done wonders for my length and thickness; and 3) using Narada's detangling technique with that clutch Denman D38 - saves time AND hair!
Yes to all three of these!
My game changers: closing my eyes and handling my hair like it’s delicate silk. I never realized how much unnecessary breakage I suffered from being too rough lol and (2) protein treatments every 6 weeks!
I do this with my daughters hair, it may take more time but it’s soo much more gentler
You made a good point about not going quaterly now that your hair is healthy because there's there are so many videos now about trimming on IG and the stylists & influencers never account for the fact that different parts of our heads grow at different rates. They always call it damaged hair when it's just uneven. (it doesn't make sense to me in that case to even it when straight instead of curly if thats how you usually wear it)
LilBabyChou, also shed hair that is growing in would be shorter than the rest of the hair.
It is ridiculous how they call all uneven hair "split ends" without even examining the actual ends lol
I’d say that my hooded dryer and the Ouidad were definitely game changers. In two years my hair went from ear length to clavicle length because of the kind of care that I could do with my hooded dryer and the repair I was doing with the Ouidad(rip😢 gone but never forgotten). I’m in process of experience the trimming regularly game changer but it’s already looking very very promising. I got 3 inches cut in March and I’m already almost gained all of those inches back (which is WILD to me).
Yea a hooded dryer with a good deep conditioner does wonders for my hair. I tried a heating cap and it didn’t work like the hooded dryer. It’s really repairing my dry frizzing hair
I think my biggest game changer for me is not over detangling and just keeping my hair out of my head until wash day. My ex threw away my Felecia Leatherwood, so I got the Kazmalaje. That's a game changer too. Plus it doesn't break when I throw it at him.🤣
😂😂
😂😂😂
Minus nine months, I've been natural all my life. My biggest game-changer was installing a showerhead filter. I never thought I would consider buying a Dyson, but now that I can no longer use a hooded dryer I've thought about it. As long as my current diffuser works I probably won't take the plunge but it could be a future game changer.
Saturating my hair with water before cleansing is a game changer for me as well. I’ve also let my hair ‘set’ for an hour after I applied products for a wash and go. Great video!
Natural for 10 yrs
1. Having a hair routine + schedule
2. Finger detangling during prepoo
3. Wash in sections + twists/plaits
4. Heated deep conditioning
5. Stretching w/ rev air
6. Low porosity- using light / soray leave ins instead of creams and butters
7. Hair journalling
Thanks for sharing
Using ACV and prepoo is a game changer for me. I have noticed less sheading. I also wash my hair weekly and change my scarf also weekly.
My Game changers: pre-po with fresh Aloe Vera, wash it once a week, Protein treatments once a month. Deep conditioner every wash day. Do what works for my hair, not what's popular at the moment.
I have seen the most growth in my hair after not going to a hair stylist for about a year now. I mainly wear twist and afros and just now recently getting into twisouts(thanks to you lol). Def not a professional but must be doing something right.
Another game changer for me, drinking tons of water and curl Smith hair vitamins. I know people say that they don't matter but they've definitely made a huge difference in my hair!!!!
I been natural for 2.5 years. I haven't done many wash and goes so, a goal for me is mastering my wash and go's this summer. For the last 3 weeks I have been experimenting with various gels paired with this and that . A few times failed wash and go's but I tried Mousse paired with a gel a game changer for sure . I even set under my hooded dryer and diffused 😀
Awesome! Congrats
I’m a new natural reaching 1year 4 months
Using cool water to rinse
Starting all of my wash and go with the Camille rose honey on soaking wet hair
Tangle teaser and the denman paddle brush
Curls improved my first end trim DIY
Using a hair journal, documented all my fail washes and products
My biggest game changer is my hooded dryer and using foam to get a lighter and fuller wash and go.
Same here sis!
My biggest game changers are an olive oil & honey pre poo & the Curls & potion leave in conditioner.
I will start by saying I am 33 years old, I have been on and off natural hair since 16. What really worked for me in my initial hair journey was consistent weekly washing, a blow out and then a twist out. Products I used were regular shampoo and conditioner, whatever was available and hair food. I kept this up from 16-21 then relaxed, during this time I never experienced major tangles or single stand knots. I have once again been natural again since 2017, my biggest mistake was fearing the following; hairfood, heat and leaving my hair too long between washes, I never experienced single stand knots when I blew out my hair. So for me personally I’m back on heat, disclaimer, I have corse hair ( thicker stands) so my hair is stronger to withstand basic heat without doing too much. Basically I’m back to basics and I shed less to cause not sure how I convinced myself that longer periods between washes was ok. I forgot to mention combs are now my bestie
Two things have changed for me when I do a wash-n-go: 1) not applying a leave-in; 2) applying my stylers to very wet hair, unless I am using a foam.
8 Years Natural
I’ve only been to the barber for cuts and to the Africans to get my hair braided.
My Biggest Game Changer - Starting a new regimen using Olaplex 3 4 5/Nizoral (Treatment), The Doux Mos Def and Big Poppa (Styling) and making my own Ayurvedic Oils/Tea Spritz’s.
Thanks for sharing!
I am really happy to have found your channel. I love your straight up style. Thanks so much for sharing.
I have 3b curly hair and Ive been natural for almost 20 years. I have mostly done wash n gos for that entire period but now that I am getting more greys and my hair seems to be more brittle and dry the game changer has been less frequent washings (now about once a week) and, of course, I must prepoo. This has really helped to keep moisture from day 1 to day 7.
Thanks for sharing!
My biggest game changer is finding and following iamblackgirlcurls this year as well as adding more water (something they also advise). Saturating my hair in water before washing, weekly washes, adding water to my conditioner
No oils no butters
thanks for sharing
Somehow I JUST really understood about letting my hair get wet enough before shampooing... I literally put music on as you suggested and detangled with my fingers before applying my shampoo 🤯🤯🤯 sooo easy and so little shedding. TYSM 🙏🏽
Yay!!!
I really enjoyed your game changers. Some of mine are similar to yours specifically when it comes to trimming my hair. My hair definitely flourishes after a good trim or cut. I don't do it as often now because my hair is pretty healthy. Also another game changer for me is as you said allowing your hair to be fully saturated for at least 5 minutes before going in with shampoo. Thanks for all the tips 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Biggest game changer is detangling before I wash and taking out my bands from sections when I shower in the morning
Thank you for sharing such an informative video. It was really helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
I am luvin these tips! 🥰💙Especially the “hooded dryer” and the balancing DC (I have so many of them from moisturizing, protein and balancing) which make so much sense 💙
My hair has been stagnant for the last years because of SSKs. It grows but I keep having to trim inches because of knots and split ends, however I can't get myself to go to the salon (I live in Europe and not many options). I know i need to go ahead and just cut a lot to start fresh.
There’s been so much talk abt oil vs no oil when really it should be just cleanse your hair!! Use oil if ya want, esp because it has so much cultural significance to a lot of folks, but you have got to use real shampoo, especially if you’re using heavy oils like castor or coconut.
Achia, Can you provide the link to the video for African hair God about destangling? I know you said that you would link it but I don't see it. Thanks so much!
It's now in the description box. Thanks for reminding me
I can still get the ouidad elasticity treatment plus the deep treatment curl recovery. Have you checked online??
Yes, I can still purchase at Nordstrom, but I know they changed the formula at some point before discontinuing the product so I'm not chasing it down
briogeo when you click on the website what you got listed it not showing that one it showing the same one of the last products
Thanks for letting me know. Fixed it
How long do you sit under the dryer
Typically for an hour
Would you consider Oyin handmade hemp mask and camille rose algae renew a balance deep condition?
Yes
@@ALove4Me thanks
My biggest game changer ever is discovering iamblackgirlcurls. The education they give and the simplicity of the routine has made my hair flourish for the first time since I went natural in 2017.
