My dad was making rice for dinner last night, and I asked him to keep the rice water, he asked why, of course and I told him it was for my hair, and he said, and I quote, “I know you like rice but you don’t need to drink the extra water as a midnight snack.” I couldn’t stop laughing after that. 😂
Lmaoo
You laugh, but there's actually a Mexican beverage made from rice called horchata and it's REALLY good.
😝
Lol
Lmfaoooooo!!!!!!
The fact that you actually care about giving us the CORRECT information
Ikr
Now thats a queen
Lily Eichelis does this actually help your hair grow faster?
CRIZ B it can! i haven’t tried it
I used. It with coconut black jamacan oil
Don't forget... They probably eat a ton of fish which also adds to their healthy hair. Plus, they don't hot iron, blow dry or color their hair everyday.
I dont do any of that, but I also haven't eaten fish in a long time.
@@beesabee you could try an omega 3 supplement, but make sure to drink a lot of water if you have acne prone skin it could cause a flare up
it still works wonders. my dumb self cut my fringe a year ago used rice water it grew out super quickly and was very shiny. stopped using it for some time though because i was too lazy to do it
@@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwyxz102 ... So, it does work?! Don't you hate when you think your hair will look cuter a certain way, then you cut it... And, it looks nothing like you imagined!!😂😂!! I've done that!
@@Yazz_my WHAAT?! I just used a supplement and was wondering why my acne flared up... well now i know😅😓
As an Asian, this made me realize all of the rice water I left to waste🧍🏻♀️
Also many things contribute to these women’s hair care. Such as the climate, the water they use, the rice they grow, the oils, their diet, and of course- genetics.
Same-
As asian woman I only know that my orchids and roses have more flowers and so healthy after watering them with water we used to wash the rice. 🌷⚘🌹💐Never thought it would be good on the hair too. I'll definitely try this!
Ikr
But don't you have to clean the rice? How can you use the dirty water from cleaning the rice?
@@hyunniesfanboy use distilled ( spring water ). Never use tap water, it’s full of fluoride & other damaging chemicals
As an Asian it’s surprising me how many people are throwing their rice away and don’t know how to make rice
Lol I was thinking the same thing!
@Lucyfur that mindset is why there's so much food wastage in america.
@Lucyfur ew food waste... it's that cheap bc it's harvested through exploitative labour, and then you're just throwing it away like it's nothing. Rotten attitude.
Lucyfur children in Yemen would die for that rice being wasted, poor children in North Korea view rice as a privilege and never get to have it, children in third world countries favorite meal is rice and to wastefully throw away something like that is completely sad
rice: these are confusing times
Ingredients:
-1 cup of white/sticky rice
-4 cups of water
-Pomelo/Grapefruit peel (One full fruit)
Preparation:
-Rinse the rice to clean it of dirt, dust, etc. This step is optional, but recommended.
-Wash the rice. This is different from rinsing. Put the rice in a bowl of water and rub/scrub it between your hands like your are washing your hands thoroughly. (Don’t add soap or anything like that.)
-Discard the rice (or keep it and cook it if you like. I know that some people did that, so it should be okay), but keep the remaining water.
-Boil the water w/ pomelo peels (Pomelo isn’t common in the some places, so grapefruit is the next best thing. If that isn’t available, you can try orange peels or another acidic fruit’s peel, although she doesn’t say so in the video, I imagine it would be okay) and a few drops of herbal oil/essential oil (She used Lavender). Use all of the peel from the whole fruit.
Boil for about 10-15 minutes.
Once boiled, store it in a jar with the lid closed for at least 1 week. A closet would be a good place to keep it for the time being.
Application:
-Flip your head upside down over a bucket and rinse the water through your hair (Refer to 9:13 because I don’t think I explained as well as a visual could). Give your scalp a nice massage while rinsing for best results.
-Leave it in for 20-30 minutes. The more sensitive your hair to protein, the shorter you should leave it in for.
-Rinse everything out of your hair with clean water, your head upside down like before. (Again, refer to 10:12)
-Pat/Blot your hair clean with a soft towel.
The Yao women say they do this every 2-3 days, but because your hair is not going to be used to this method, doing this every 2-3 days may damage it. Use this method sparingly, maybe once or twice a month.
Feel free to screenshot if you need to :D
Wow thank you so much!!
Kylie thank you , thank you !!
But should we use it for already clean hair or ?
Glad you mentioned that. The Yao women don’t wash their hair before using it, so the person in the video didn’t either. Some people do though, so I think that’s just mostly a preference
Should I shampoo after this method?
I just did this, legit followed her recipe! I let it sit for a month and when I opened it, the smell was quite lovely! It smelt like grapefruit! I have kinky 4c Hair and the rice water went through my hair like butter. I will definitely be doing this montly!
How did you store it?
@@Gretetoevali I stored it in a mason jar and just put it on a shelf in my kitchen cabinet. I honestly forgot about it, I stored it in the back/dark area and let it ferment for 3+ weeks.
after u finished rinsing your hair out with the rice water ? On the days we don’t wash our hair with the rice water , do we do our regular routines with like shampoo and conditioner?
@@serenitysok1221 YES. Whatever your routine is, do that when you're not using the RW. I also washed my hair AFTER rinsing out the RW but everyone is different. It's a combo of using the RW and balancing it with your own routine. I have friends who let it ferment for a day and use RW weekly, it depends on your texture, etc. Best of luck Boo!
How did it work for you?
Isabella: “I’m just going to use the cleanest water available to me, which is-“
Advert: “At OuTbAcK StEaKhOuSe!”
I love this comment 😂
Mine was “a CoNvIeNeNt PlAtFoRm!”
I READ THIS AS SOON AS SHE SAID THAT AND GOT A SHAVING AD
How is it that I ran across this comment just as it was happening 🤔
Mine was Native deodorant though
plain white rice, wash rice, boil with water, grapefurit peel boil it (10 to 15 mins), ferment 1 week
wash your hair every 3 days, leave it for 20 and 30 mins
soooo I use black rice...but this is kinda how I do it. I pour boiling water over rinsed rice and let it sit until cool...then I add sweet orange oil or a citrus peel....let it sit out 3-5 days...then put in the fridge. I have VERY high porosity hair so I do use it once a month....has done WONDERS for my hair. I also spray on my scalp with tea tree oil when I have braids and it really helps to keep my scalp clean.
Thank you. Saved me 12 mins.
Thank you.
Shes very confusing all over the map. Something so simple sounds confusing.
Please, go to the end of the video and you will see that she do not recommend doing it every 3 days for various reasons (but if it works for you I don’t see why not). She said she suggests using it again after one month.
My cheap ass cooked the rice afterwards and it turned out great, in case you were wondering 😂
Thanks))
Yes, but how long did you ferment?
@@keh-dalia809 You don't ferment the rice itself, just the water you washed it in
I cooked my rice too...
I cooked it as well, I can't believe so many people say to discard it. It's as if someone said to throw away the fruit after peeling it🤷♀️
Don't waste food!
This is our Meitei's ancient method 🥰 we called it "Chinghi"😊 we can add lemon peel, pineapple peel , and some plants which is good for hair 🥰Love from Manipur 💗💗
Based
What kind of plants do you add?
For anyone who’s curious: pomelos are like big grapefruits and they taste very good. They’re difficult to peel, but it’s worth it cause the inside is super sweet and sour. They come in a bright pink colour or white colour, with a white/yellow/green exterior. The fruits are usually found in Asian markets and pretty common.
Where I’m at in the USA (NC), I’ve not seen a pink grapefruit in YEARS- like 5 years- in any local grocery stores. Guess it’s health benefits are too great for us to have access 🙄🙄🙄
_When she started talking about jewelry, I thought I was on a different video lmao_
How high are you?
My youtube plan call for no ads, but she put it right in the middle of the video. Guess she was offsetting the cost of making her video and maximizing her profit
@@maryjanehinkle598 apparently not high at all because I thought I was on a different video too... I didn't know I was going to hear about jewelry
Yeh I felt the same
😂😂
Ya'll commenting about being early.
How 'bout we actually appreciate the work and effort she put into making this video???
*jeez*
Smh yawn
Seriously! What does anyone even get out of that?
Thank you someone else who actually cares about that
Taraxa Officinale i’m late😔
@@inhle1688 Not like I care tho💁
From this video I can tell you are a great essay writer.
I fermented my normal rice water for days and I opened it.. now I'm searching for a new house...
Lmboooooooooo
Maby people do not understand what's fermentation is. If the water was boiled then everything would that water contain like vitamins minerals and such are already dead. Nothing in that water can go through fermentation process now. Another thing that everybody advices which I think is wrong is to close tightly the container with water and wait for it to ferment. If the container is tightly closed the fermentation process is not going to happen. In order for water to go through the fermentation process it needs access to air, the best thing to do is to cover the container with cheesecloth to prevent debris falling in and wait for 3 to 5 days, deoending on a room temperature, for fermintation proces to happen in a dark space.
@@Mrsnexochy I totally agree with you...this is my belief indeed
@@Mrsnexochy I thought fermentation was an anaerobic (not requiring oxygen) process?
This made me bust out laughing!!! 🤣🤣
I think your hair is looking so much more healthier even when it air dried love ya Isabella!
thank you x
@M Raheem why are you so rude
@M Raheem ???
M Raheem DAMN what’s your deal *dude*
@M Raheem rudeness much -_-
I meet these women not long ago in Guilin, China, and was so astounded by their beautiful hair.
Kaleah Crump why would anyone lie about that? 😂 dude I live in China
Sos did you ask them about this hair treatment?
Kristinne G nope, but now I wish I had.
I'm brazilian so hopefully my ancestors mixed with some indigenous people here who are descendant of asians, MAYBE my hair has some of the yao properties I hope...
Stop calling white women Karen. Its like calling black people Rochester.
It only smells bad after leaving it for several days if you skip the grapefruit peels and tea leaf/seed /essential oils. I tried it with just rice and it was unbelievably foul after a week, but I retried it with the full recipe you tracked down and it was fine!
How long should I leave it then?
I did the whole thing. By the way my hair is Gray, bleached and colored....so Kept it for 5 days not a week fermenting. Kept it on my hair for 20 minutes and then rinsed. It was not easy to detangle my hair is a little longer. But this smells great and my scalp feels really good! We'll see how it goes from here! Oh, and I ate the rice and the grapefruit!
I've been doing this every other week now so I've done it twice and I just made my third batch for next weekend and in between I'm using an off brand olaplex shampoo and conditioner. so far so good!
Can you please give us a 1 year update?
can you update us
I am a cosmetologist, hair grows from the scalp! If this is going to work, it's because you place it on your scalp! The oil in the citrus will close the hair cuticles so that it lays flat. This will elongate the hair shaft making it appear longer. The average hair grows 1/2 inch per month. Should you see more growth than that, then what you are doing is working. I hope this helps. P.S. It doesn't matter what type of hair you have, any extra attention you five to your hair (extra brushing) will increase its growth.
This is misinformation You can not brush African American hair every day
@@jennybrown611 she was just giving an example of extra attention you should give your hair. Extra attention might mean more moisturization or simply leaving your hair alone. It does not necessarily mean you have to brush your hair.
@Jen_Jen B nobody said to brush your hair everyday love
My hair is nearly knee-length and very thick. I keep cutting it...2 winters ago I cut off almost 2 feet...but now I'm just letting it grow. My favorite trick for hair growth is the inversion method which gets blood to the scalp, plus it feels good to hang from the waist and releases tension. In about a year, it'll be down to my knees as it grows 3/4 inch each month.
Jen_Jen B 🤣 you can brush and shampoo any hair everyday. I am writing this as an African American Cosmetologist. They do not teach white or black hair in Cosmetology school. However, hair theory is taught based on HAIR not ethnicities, racial makeup, prejudice or racial bias or blah, blah. There is no such thing as African American hair. Yet, there is curly and overly curly hair textures which is not race specific even if it is more commonly recognized with AA’s. So, she did not write or imply anything wrong. I am 100% African American and I shampoo and brush my hair DAILY. My hair has been 30 inches and 100% natural at it’s maximum length and no special remedies were used to grow it.
I literally have a pomelo tree outside of my house, how convenient
*you're so blessed💙. Pomelos are delicious and have many health benefits, that's probably why they specifically use pomelo's super thick peel and not grapefruit or orange etc...*
Bro lucky! Pomelo is so goodddd
Could you ship me some hehe
Wow that is very convenient
Pomelo is something I have had since a child and it surprises me that very little people know what it is
I've been using the Rice Water treatment for a year now, and my hair has grown very fast and is also a lot thicker too!
Thank you so much for this video, as I had been watching many different ones and found this one to be the best.
I leave it on my hair, wrapped in a plastic bag then towel for about 2 hours, then I wash and condition my hair like usual. I finish with an Apple Cider Vinegar rinse: 1/4 Cup Apple Cider Vinegar mixed with 2 Cups Distilled water + some grapefruit essential oil drops. Do not rinse out the Apple Cider Vinegar! Just ring hair out and dry naturally...the Vinegar smell will go away when hair is dry.
Thanks Cheryl, how often do you do this? What kind of hair do you have? ❤
I've been fermenting my rice with the water. I actually did a treatment just yesterday, but I do not use it as a wash so much as a treatment before a shampoo. I can honestly say it's improved the health of my hair over the last several years, as well as my new growth coming in darker than my previously silver hair. This method you describe makes more sense and I will be doing this method on my next treatment. Thank you for taking the time to research and share this!!
Love and Light!
Ok but like--if Rose and Jack from Titanic had a modern daughter, this is her.
Blossom • DEFINETELY
Was about say that.. she looks so much like Rose from Titanic 💕
@@Indian_jaika I know right! And her hair color kinda reminds me of Jack! She's so blessed
@Blossom you have good observation
Her hair colour definitely matches with Jack😂
@@Indian_jaika haha thanks
It's almost 3 months since I started using it and it perfectly worked : my hair got longer,thicker and more healthier...Girls what are u waiting for!?
Really did you put the fruit peel too? Plus reply me
How often do you use it?
how often do u use it
@@vaishnavivoruganti1329 no I did not ...rice water only
@@kuhki2724 at first I used it once a week...to see how my hair gonna respond...but after that I start using it twice
I’ve heard that rosemary oil is actually very similar to the main ingredient in Rogane! That could be an option as opposed to the lavender.
Finally, someone that explain it WELL! All the videos on TH-cam do the wrong steps... We needs to boil the water before to put it to ferment! !! Thank you!😀
I decided YESTERDAY I’d finally try this but couldn’t find a vlog that seemed to be correct UNTIL this just pos up !!! HOW AMAZING!!! And I’ll tell you I’m pretty impressed with your research and you made it interesting ( research is basically boring ) !!! So I’ll say this in my best British accent “ Brilliant and well bloody done !”
Hah thank you x
Umm no... I didn’t see in the description box... whatever I’ll find myself then
@@leanneadams2549 ?
it is not correct, read my comment I posted rice water is basically inorganic arsenic water that you are putting on your hair.
@@sifthor so you're saying that yao women are wrong when they basically did that all their lives and have much better hair than us?
To save y’all some time the information your here for starts at 5:11
Thank u
I was gonna like it but the number is perfect so imma just reply. Thank you!
Thank you
Thank you
Oh thank you!

You are such a helping hand and I really love your humor and the way you talk is so entertaining!
Thank you so much!
Good much on your hair journey!
I really appreciate the level of research you did in preparation for this video. Very informative, thank you.
Wow. I finally found a youtuber whose personality I like and also explains the science behind the method. Thanks for the help!!
thank you!
Victoria Grass if u want to find another youtuber like this there’s a channel named “manes by mell” and she also goes in depth about different hair types and the sciences behind our hair
@@pecan7867 Thanks, will see about that
Yeah right? i don't even know anything about hair cause mine is short. But she is just lovely and hilarious, also very passionate.
it is not correct, read my comment I posted rice water is basically inorganic arsenic water that you are putting on your hair.
I watched the Yao ladies explaining some things about their recipe. They use an expensive Chinese herb called He Shou Wu, mulberry roots (at least 5 years old), ginger, dried pomelo skin and tea seed cakes( which acts as a surfactant). The process they make their hair rinse is long and complicated as they also steam the He Shou Wu with black beans and sesame skin to ripen the herb and allow it to have its therapeutic effects. They then soak the He Shou Wu with the rice water. He shou Wu is a Chinese herb known to prevent gray hairs and hair loss. They boil the rice water to bring the nutrients of the herb as Chinese medicine u boil stuff to get therapeutic effects.
@Vixen Kitsune it is in Chinese. So there is no English subtitle. I was watching a popular Chinese show and they had the Yao ladies explaining a bit more about how they make their own shampoo. So the ladies will climb up in the mountain to find the herb He Shou Wu. They call it Pang Shou Wu, to name it after the surname of their tribe but if u go to a Chinese medicine shop, the herbalists call it He Shou Wu. U can google it. He Shou Wu is known as a Chinese herb to help with hair growth, prevents graying and hair loss. But it is expensive. To get the maximum effect, u steam it with Black Beans and Black Seaseme.They also use mulberry roots. But u can use mulberry leaves as the infamous Empress Dowger Cixi shampoo was mulberry leaves boiled and then strained to make a rinse. Mulberry also has benefits for the hair. They use dry pomelo skin not raw skin. U see in Chinese culture, we dry the citrus fruits skin to make soups as it is meant to be healthy. So if u eat a pomelo, just keep the skin and dry it. Rice water acts more of a conditioner. Tea seed cake is what cleans the hair. So I have no idea how to get this in the West. U might need to get from a Chinese herbal shop. Ginger is meant to stimulate hair growth. So the videos u go are limited coz of language barriers.
@Vixen Kitsune If u want the link this is the video of a popular Chinese tv show. U will need a Chinese friend to translate for u. This video is the video the Yao Ladies explaining more of their secret than any other videos I have seen. So many of the DIY videos out there are not doing it properly in terms of trying to replicate the Yao ladies formula. The whole point of boiling the Chinese herbs and rice water is to bring out the therapeutic effect of Chinese herb especially He Shou Wu and Mulberry roots. th-cam.com/video/OTcfvyYYQgE/w-d-xo.html
@@joswanbeauty2613 thank you
Woahhhh so interesting! Thanks for the deeper look ☺️
Where can I purchase tht ? In what part do they do tht
thank you. i have watched numerous rice water videos. yours is the only one with a complete, concise, step-by-step method of making and using rice water. it is exactly what i was looking for.
Just did this, the grapefruit is a great addition, smells amazing and actually has benefits for the hair. Thank you!
*drops phone in water*
Everyone: Put it in rice!!
*Breaks down and cuts hair*
“Put it in rice!!”
Fixes everything 😂

@Valerie O'Brien me tooo🤣
😂😂nice connection
Leana Lyden 😁😁🤣
*Got Da Rona Virus*
Everyone: Put yourself in rice!
While she was going through the sponsorship.. I was reading the comments.. and found the ingredients, preparation and usage 😉
Same
FR! She lost me when the jewelry ad came on, so I went right to the comments!
oooKay!
And playing it on 1.5x speed still found in comments before jewelry sponsorship lol
Same the way she said vitamin did it for me 😳
Thanks! Correction though…oil is not the same as seed oil. Essential oil is the aromatic oils of a leaf or flower. And a seed oil is the fats from a seed (like an egg yolk from an egg) so i would say the essential oil is closer to adding alcohol than fat. You CAN get tea seed oil here! Its called camelia oil! Thats what ill add to mine 😊
This was amazing! You did such a great job at presenting all of the information! I've tried this method and it truly works. So, thank you!
Your hair looked really healthy afterwards! I'd use it after shampooing though, to make sure it's clean.
myweakness188 it’s supposed to act as a hair rinse. Almost like a after conditioning treatment
it is not correct, read my comment I posted rice water is basically inorganic arsenic water that you are putting on your hair.
Apparently the hair dries if you shampoo as well. I hope you haven’t tried it.
Pantene has left the chat
😂
Haha 😂
Ang Confetti 😂😂😂😂
OMG, that's a good one!🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
Finally! I was worried I was doing it wrong because it didn’t smell! Thank you this really helped me!!
I tried, and with first wash itself hair fall reduced a lot. Thank you for sharing the information. You explained so well.
Black girl with natural hair here. Thank you for the FACTS.
Sis what was the point....
Why does you being black with natural hair have to do with anything?
Christina Ngabekome maybe because her hair is VERY different from the lady in the video and not too many black people who make rice water videos pile on facts and info like this. Making it way more helpful.
Diamond Dior, thank you
Why the first two hating? Why does it matter to you that SHE mentioned SHE was black? Bye y'all.
Yes! I was feeling this video, though I'm heavy into hair care and rice water methods this NEVER came up in my feed! Glad to know even more behind this simple method
An Asian man interviewed the elderly family and the yao lady showed and explained the process. She showed first wash the rice 3 times and the last wash leave in tight container for a week to ferment and at the same time store your pomelo peels(grapefruit or what ever acidic peels you have)also. After a week it should smell sour. Then she boiled the sour smelling water and added the peels. She also told him this part I'm about to say is very important. She goes up the hill and gather the tea tree seeds that makes tea tree seed oil for the regular people to cook with , but the ladies who grow their hair take the use tea residue which turns chalky and crumble in the water. She said that's a very important step then the ladies on the video went to the back porch and soaked whole head with the water. The video was under calberklay you tube channel and was 3:07 mins. My point is when you did your research did you also find that part about the tea tree seeds.
Awesome and thank you tea tree oil always has been good for my hair.
👍
Yes she did mention the tea plant seeds residue but she said it's hard to find here so she just use the essential oils.
So I just want to clarify you're supposed to ferment the washed rice water and store the citrus peels somewhere else and then after the fermentation is complete you boil the rice water along with the citrus peels?
@@In.this.economy yes. Correct. That's exactly what this yao family did in the video. When she let the interviewer smell it it smelt sour because of fermentation. Then boiled with peelings. Lastly she said the secret was the residue from the used tea tree seeds.
Love a video that’s backed by science. It’s an overwhelming amount of info out there and you came with the facts!
this is the best video I found on this subject and it contains all information I need to know for trying. Thank you so much for sharing !
The reason I trust you and no other youtubers is because you do such thorough research and put so much time into your videos! Love you, keep doing this hair series!
I
I've followed other TH-camr's method and my hair grew so much and is very very soft so to each their own, I personally wouldn't boil it it takes out minerals and the acid from the grape fruit isn't good for your hair, especially with different types of hair
@@WMBWLove Then it's plain rice water, not the Yao women recipe.
I’ve been using fermented rice water based on this recipe. I discovered that I could use my vita mix instead of massaging the rice. It makes the rice water really milky and thick. I make 5 quarts and use one a week. So the last quart is fermented for 5-6 weeks. My hair is growing like crazy and is amazingly shiny!
Wow!!! 😃 😁
Wait so, how Much does your hair grow in a Month? Or week? I wanna try this out
So actually the rice blended all together.
Doesn’t stink like death/sewer? How do you combat the smell?
@@LaLabutterfly the youtuber said grapefruit and lavender essential oils. Just get a giant grapefruit, if the smell is strong next time get more peel. You can also add peppermint oil to it as well. that is very stimulating for your scalp and is also quite a strong scent in general.
so much effort has been put in this video... wow ...THANK YOU
I actually tried it last week and it made my natural 4c hair so soft and moisturized. I put organic white rice into a spray bottle then added a lot of water to maybe 2 tablespoons of rice. I left the mixture in the spray bottle for 1 or two days. I shook the ingredients very often as I waited for it to "ferment". I have never fermented anything, so I had no clue what I was doing. Whatever I did, worked wonderfully, so much so, I can't wait to do it again. However, I will wait and do it next month as to prevent protein overload... I enjoyed your video. I found your info to be very clear, concise, and informative.
She’s like the AlexandrasGirlyTalk of hair care! Absolutely love all the research done for each video! 💕
Girl THANK YOU. i freakin love her videos haha x
There is a chinese video from 10 years ago on youtube with english subtitles. In the video, they ferment first for 7 days before boiling it. The boiling gets rid of the sour smell, kill all the bacteria with the extra ingredients, it smells lovely.
But if you boil it and it kills all the bacteria, what is the use of fermenting it in the first place
@@abanaabana5757 I think this is to obtain some sort of yeast which might be good for the hair
@@abanaabana5757 Oh yea the yeast might not survive with heat..
Fermenting also makes it acidic, so maybe that's the purpise of it. Just a guess.

I have tried this and my hair grew a few inches!!! It made me so happy! Currently letting the rice water soak in my hair. I just want to say for me I use the rice water and then the next day use my regular hair products during a big wash day so this is my second time using it. THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO IT HAS HELPED ME TONS ❤️
Thank you! You are so good in explaining and appreciate your research. Much love and appreciation ♥️
I feel like I want to bathe my whole body in rice water now
its good to use as a facial i use it on my face and now its smooth as a babies butt i mean it was already soft but it got more soft and i be naturally glowing so i def recommend it to use as this way aswell . i wash my face in cold water, then oil it with organic sweet almond oil then apply the rice water u can switch it round whichever suits u hope this helps u :)
You actually can!
I put in spray bottle and use it every night before putting on cream.
@Rabia Khan lol
I appreciate your effort in research, especially with crediting the Yao women and also sharing that different hair types DOES matter. Seriously, it's frustrating sometimes that western people tend to exploit or appropriate native cultures and practices. The effort you put to talk about it means a lot.
Sure, just western people exploit or appropriate other cultures. Don't start because the WHOLE world has a dark history of exploitation much much worse than using a hair growth secret.
Omgggg I love this video you probably spend so much time looking for information you’re deserve moreeee hype!❤️🥰💕
Omo i just fall in luv at 1st sight after watchin' this video.. it's just so informative, i luv how u put all the link in the discription yall that's so comfirming♥️
Just a friendly reminder to drink some water :)
😀
I dnt feel good if i drink water when im not thirsty🤮
Thank you:)
I've made it a habit to drink water every time I see such a comment or reminder😅 Hope your hair stays perfect😊
Lorene R doing that now ✌️💧
I would love to see an update post 4 months using Rice water!!
Please!
I love the way you presented the topic❤️
Your hair looks amazing. Don’t put it down when it’s natural. Love it!
Imagine how much money they’d make if that sold that stuff even just a $1😳
you can buy their actual water on etsy
Yeah and it would end up really being $19.99 when a bag of rice and a grapefruit is like $2
There is actually a company called Viori that sells shampoo and conditioner made with rice water. 10% of profits is given back to the Yao community viori.com/
@@astird0458 *well most ppl don't have all the exact ingredients as the Yao women and most ppl don't have the time to do it correctly (like most TH-camrs) so to me it would be worth the investment for impatient, non-researching individuals 😊.*
I really appreciate how much effort she puts into her videos, she’s really one of the only TH-camrs i trust with getting good information about hair
I really like the fact that you give us justified info!!
Honest review! Worked amazingly well for me! I used sweet lime peel. And didn't shampoo my hair to rinse it off
don’t mind me, just cooking some grapefruit soup.
Lmfao abhahaha-
Me, too! 🤣🤣🤣
You're editing is AWESOME!!! It makes it really fun to watch. I looove the little details 🥰 This video was very informative, I learnt a lot of new stuff. Thank you for giving so much effort :") Love you ❤️❤️
Hello! I tried it with pomelo and olive oil. Left the jar for a week and the mix on my hair for 2 hours. Amazing results! Thank you!!
Awesome video! The rice water method softened my hair so nicely.
Girl I love that theme of your hair journey videos. And amount of time and research you put in these... I appreciate so much. Cannot wait for more!
Boiling the citrus will degrade the vitamin c and putting the essential into the boiling water will also dissipate the essential oil. Dont allow the citrus to boil then put the essential oils into the water after it has gotten to room temp. I will say that this video is really thorough!!!!! Thanks!
Boiling the rice water in general isn't a good idea especially for different hair types, it takes out ALL of the good qualities to help the hair growth, I don't boil mine nor do I use grapefruit (too much acid), I just do it like everyone else on TH-cam does it (by just letting the rice sit in the water for days or weeks) and my hair is growing fast and is sooo soft (I have thick, 4c hair)
Makes sense bc high heat will kill off the vitamin C
Would you say you should bring the rice water to a simmer and then add the peels and oil or just don’t heat the water at all? Thanks
WMBW Love I have 4c hair too and I’m yet to find another one who’s doing rice water till now. Could u tell me how u do it and how often? Thanks
@@WMBWLove yeah but this is the recipe from the Yao women. If you want to do it like them then you boil. If you dont want to then that's on you but it's not how they do it anymore then lol
Finally someone explaining it correct way. Thanks I totally understand now after looking at several explanations.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THESE INCREDIBLE EFFORTS U DID FOR GIVING US THE EXACT CORRECT PIECE OF INFORMATION 😍😍😍❤❤❤🙌🙆
The research and citations are remarkable! You definitely know your stuff, I can respect that
God of mercy and compassion!! Are we here to learn about rice water or jewelry I can't get👏😂
This is the most informative video I’ve found on this method so thank you :)
Thank you so much for taking your time to do researches for us❤
pov:you're watching this video and scrolling through the comments to see whether it works BECAUSE U CUT UR HAIR WAY TOO SHORT
The accuracy of this comment is scary 😂😂
Omg u got me LMAO
😂
😂😂 accurate
Haha I swear I did and am again need to grow amazing hair..how can that be...
What a research QUEEEEN😍 🙌🏼 all props to you, honestly.
Such a good video, plain straight and such a beautiful presentator. Amazing...
Woaaaaah you even had references! This is so awesome
I’ve been rinsing the rice thoroughly, adding bottled water and storing it in a jar for 2 to 3 days!!! I apply it as a leave in with a spray bottle and it works wonders! Thanks for your way but I’m doing just fine with my way 🙌🏼
I just learned about using it as a leave in recently. I just started today so I hope it helps
@@mzgemini0006 does it help?)
Girls, do you spray it every day on your hair?
I have been doing that, with leaving it in, but my hair has become really frizzy because of it and after i've stopped it's better, so watch out guys
@@MaiaRws That's due to protein overload. The first sign of protein overload is frizzy hair so what you need to do is hydrate it.
How about hair loss??
Thank you for taking time & researching fully the correct way to do the " Rice method " it certainly helps . Your so considerate of others & you've saved us the avoidance of a hair fail . Thank you Isabella ❤️💞❤️ . Girl I'm right back on this channel when there's other products that say they work wonders for your skin etc , has I'll know you will be giving 100% honest advice & your honest feedback . The best thing is you even show us the correct way by demonstrating the tried method so we can see the results too 💞😁💞 . Isabella you have your fans right here keep up the brilliant research your a true star XXX
Fantastic video absolutely makes more sense than all the rest of the videos I have watched thank you for all the receipts all the video footage and your coverage and example videos thank you
the first time i made rice water i did the typical mistake method of just leaving the rice in a jar with water for a few days and after about a week it smelled like literal shit... i'm not even kidding.. but something obviously went horribly wrong there.
i made this recipe here with grapefruit peels and added a little bit of lavender and tea tree oil about 2-3 weeks ago and i'm so surprised that it does indeed just smell very fresh and citrusy!
thank you for all the useful information!
I’m impressed by the amount of research and scientific references included in this video. Kudos!
I love this recipe so much! I've tried other rice water recipes in the past and it would just make my hair crunchy. This one makes my hair feel so soft and silky 😍
I've tried it I left it on for 2hrs and washed it out with a small amount of head and shoulders shampoo and my hair is so soft and thick to the touch I love it thankyou
You have the best information. I’m really appreciate it. Other methods didn’t seem right. Thank you.
Loved this video Isabella, very refreshing. Also love that you used actual facts and decided to try it out completely the traditional way (no shampoo)
I cried when I saw how amazing it worked on my hair because of the fact that my hair has been suffering but it was so pretty and shiny in such a healthy way but I do though only use it one or two times a month💖
That’s soo good!!
Did you put any citrus fruit peel
Asmi Dhungel no I didn’t actually I only put in what she said in the video but I don’t have the ingredients anymore so I should maybe try that🥰
Faery Gay Mother yeah it did grow faster because it was healthier. It was definitely noticeable💖
Weirdo MultiStan
No don’t try that...maybe I could be wrong or something..
Asmi Dhungel okay them I’m just gonna try to get the ingredients from at home because I wanna stay inside all the time. No one can tell me I didn’t do my thing in this quarantine😂💖
y would someone give this video a dislike with all her effort...I think this is perfect 🙌
I've been using the 24 hour method (and currently have a jar on the counter I'm experimenting with for a longer ferment) for a while, but I also add white distilled vinegar up to about 25% of the total mixture and I use this as an after shampoo rinse, leaving for a minute or two while I'm washing everywhere else in the shower, then I rinse it out. The vinegar is good to restore the acid mantle and is fantastic for preventing split ends. I also add a little food-grade rose water for a nice smell, just a splash in a quart jar. I've been working training my scalp to produce less oil by extending the time between washes, only recently switching to 1x per week. This has helped me get past a hair plateau. At this point, I'm at tailbone length and I was stuck at waist-length for years with the need to trim a lot due to split ends. Just putting all that out there in case it might be helpful to someone else. Also, the ratio of vinegar to rice water might need to be adjusted depending on hair texture and fullness. Mine is on the fine side, straight, and too much vinegar makes it feel greasy.
I might have to try it differently based on this video. I look forward to experimenting.
Thank you, so glad it is working for you...I would like to experiment too, but mine is fine but wavy...wish me luck!
I've currently got hair just past my elbows which is black and layered on the sides...(think of Amy Lee from Eveanescence, and you'll see the same).
I'm trying to get the tip of it to my tailbone. I hope the rice water method will work. Because I've tried everything else including daily doses of Biotin and several vitamins.
Thinking of adding a few drops of rosemary oil to it too.
You’re so dedicated to providing us quality content! All the best for this amazing journey you’ve been going through...you’ve worked so hard and your hair reflects your efforts! I love your videos as they’re based on so much research and not just blind preachings✨🤗💫. woah this is the first time I’ve had my comment gain these many likes!😱😊
thank you i'm so glad you find some value in my videos xx
Isabella Demarko 👍🏻❤️✨
I really appreciate this video. I especially like that you mention a few times about how genetics, ethnicity and so forth can also play a huge role in the efficacy of rice water treatments. I have a mixed hair type and if I do rice water, it's usually a once a month/ once every other month kind-of-a-thing for me. Just like you said , you don't want to over do it!!!
Love all the facts, it really shows you worked really hard on the research.. it's really appreciated, thank you ☺️☺️☺️.
In my country we eat rice everyday and i didn't know about this omg i'll try this as soon as i can!! Ty
