I really like and love praise everything about your very beautiful and pretty hair and your natural beauty and everything else in all of your videos too . Your hair will be always forever beautiful no matter what you say about it and do with your hair too.
As a tricologist, would you be able to make a reel or video on how color protecting products work, if they even work, and recommendations you may have? I understand your hair is lighter, but for those of us that have darker shades of red or brown I’m curious to get information from someone with your wealth of knowledge. ❤
Loving Editor Emily’s little interjections lol Long time TT follower, and new YT follower. I’ve been binging your videos and they are so good. Are you doing a brush showdown soon? Did I dream that? I hope it’s coming! Also would love a trichology video about what hair looks like under a microscope when it is in different stages I.e. healthy, damaged, weak, protein overloaded/underloaded (lol), product buildup, etc. I feel like we hear so much about the state of hair and what to do from a practical perspective but something scientific and visual would be so fun.
I have decided I need to get a dedicated notebook and go back through your videos and make notes on everything that applies to my hair. Thanks so very much for these helpful videos!
@@Mckee4055 Have you tried the OGX oil? I'm just wondering about the consistency of the Bumble oil. I also use their deep conditioner once a week. I have straight hair that I get professionally dyed two to three times a year. Abbey's videos have been a lifesaver for me.
I learnt from the blowout professor that not all products that also claim to be heat protectants amongst other benefits actually help against heat. he tested out various peoducts on toast in the toaster lol. Very worth looking into!
Can you someday make a video about products for undamaged/virgin hair? I really love your advice but I’d love to hear about products that aren’t necessarily bond builders
I am curious about this as well! But I will say, I have tried product lines she has recommended like the dove bond strength and the L’Oréal bond line and they work SO well for my virgin hair. I do use heat sometimes so I just don’t use the bond treatment every week, only once a month but the shampoo and conditioner are amazing! I was using a very high end line before and decided to give L’Oréal a try and I am not disappointed
@@benistheproblem all of these products can also be used on virgin hair. The idea of “virgin hair” is only regarding whether it has been dyed. All hair is subject to damage just by everyday wear and tear. If you’ve ever worn your hair down or put it up in a ponytail, you have some amount of damage
@@lauralfitzgerald542I agree. I just got the bond strength by dove today and I’ll be using it later. Hoping it works for me. I have a lot of frizz and fly aways. I haven’t dyed my hair in like 17+ years so just day to day damage, and I don’t use heat often.
healthy virgin hair doesn't need lots of products. A simple wash, condition and if blow drying just a light leave in. Keep it simple. I use a light texture spray if I'm going to be curling my hair and want it to hold for a night out but most of the time just a simple leave in works fine. Try buying sample sizes of things till you find what you like.
❤I have noticed a difference in the health of my hair just doing the living proof bond repair and purology color fanatic leave in conditioner after. Been doing it for 3 post washes now and I love. ❤ I also been doing pre wash with pre wash oils and living proof clarifying shampoo during wash. It makes a world of a difference.
I’ve started using Quai live in conditioner, Redken frizz dismiss and bumble and bumble oil after all my regular products you previously recommended. I have been really enjoying it as my final steps ;)
I absolutely love the dove 10 in 1 hair mask, it’s a game changer!! I have tried several hair masks from different brands (bridgeo, Moroccan, etc) and nothing compares to the Dove mask! I have very damaged long hair from over bleaching and it’s heaven sent!
Hi, Abbey! Good Sunday to you, too! I know you no longer advocate being a bleached blonde but instead a warm ‘colored’ blonde. Can you do a video on any blue/purple shampoos and/or conditioners for those of us who keep getting more and more brassy, starting the first or second shampoo after a lightening?!? Thanks! D
I am watching all of your older videos. I'm so happy to see a recent one so that I can thank you for all the advice I have benefitted from after following you for only a couple of weeks. I hope you see this. Dove shampoo and conditioner has changed my life! LOL... Not an overstatement. I love your videos and I feel in my spirit that I can trust your advice and that you are honest and forthright. Keep doing what you do please. Many think you're amazing and count me as one of them! 💜
Just want to add to read the directions. Lots of times people say that something doesn’t work but they are using it wrong. My general rule of thumb is that if it doesn’t work using the directions then it probably isn’t for me. I’m just not in a place anymore to force products to work for me.
Abbey could you make a video or short or series of shorts on how to flatten a damaged cuticle? I know you’ve talked about this but can you make some content dedicated to this specifically? I’ve been using k18 and doing your bond repair stuff but those little scragglies still pop out along my hair shaft albeit much less than before but on a rainy day forget about it lol. I’m not expecting magic but getting a bit of a deep dive into smoothing out the hair cuticle as best as possible would be really great and super helpful. PS you’re the best and your tips have literally saved my hair lol
I am just curious. If you use four pumps of Living Proof bond repair every time after you wash your hair, and you wash your hair 2-3 times a week, about how long does a bottle of the Living Proof last you?
The directions for living proof bond repair are similar to K18. (Apply to damp hair and leave in for set amount of time before applying any other products) Are they the same/similar in what they do for hair?
Video idea : Would you be open to make video about subscribers routines ? Like we send you a picture of our products and you tell us what products you'd suggest to make it even better ? Or if we are doing a step "wrong" ?
For a moment, I thought TH-cam had deleted my comment or taken down your video. Hey Abbey, I recently visited a dermatologist, and she informed me that my hair is genetically predisposed to damage, and there's little I can do about it. I'm struggling with hair thinning and severe breakage. I've observed that my hair breaks easily ( prematurely), and feels dry, straw-like, and frizzy. Interestingly, I've noticed that the inner parts of my hair and my baby's hair are softer and healthier than the outer parts. I've tried everything from high-end products to drugstore options, and I don't even use heat on my hair. At this point, I'm at a loss as to what the problem might be. ( just reposting my comment 😅)
Omg that's my hair! The underneath is soft, smooth, healthy, shiny, but the top layer is dry, frizzy, tangled, crispy, broken. I don't use heat either, and have tried everything! I do have hashimotos, low ferritin, low vitamin D, low B12, insulin resistance, a liver problem, and perimenopause. All of which cause hair problems. However, I don’t understand why all those things only cause problems on the top layer of my hair ?!
Not sure if it’s helpful but when I spend time higher up in the mountains my hair used to get like this from UV damage. I just try to wear hats! That’s a very environmental factor though so I’m not sure it would apply to you.
As some others I'm wondering how to integrate Living Proof Bond Repair and Color Wow. But my real question is: what other heat protection would you recommend to use on dry, color treated and wavy hair? I often do the blow out one day and the next day I go in with a straightener because my hair is frizzy and also I'm not very good at straightening them just with brush and hair drier. Thanks for all your great videos and cheers from Italy 😀
Hi Abbey! Thank you very much for this. Could you please also talk about hair care in cold weather? Especially how to avoid static hair, especially on dry hair. The moment it gets a little colder, my hair gets very static and as it gets colder, it gets more and more stressed, dry, and static. I tried using oil but it doesn't do it.
Thank you for the video, love your product recommendations. I lost a few chunks of my hair and have a bald spot but haven't figured out a way to grow it back again. A bit frustrated but following some of your steps have helped me with wash day and taking care of my hair
@@AbbeyYungIs there anything that works for the balding spot. Maybe it’s with age as well, I have long hair to my shoulders and my crown area is starting to thin out😢
I have 2A, wavy, low density, dry, frizzy hair. I need to put leave-in all the way up to the roots because it’s dry /frizzy up there too, and I have wild/messy baby hairs My hair hated the Living Proof and Pureology I’ve also used IGK Good behavior Bumble and Bumble leave-in Pantene Miracle Rescue L’oréal 21 in 1 My hair didn’t hate these as much but they didn’t leave my hair soft, shiny, moisturized, frizz and tangle free. The only one I haven’t tried is Not Your Mothers If anyone has any suggestions. I have tried so many others not on this list and still do not have my leave-in holy grail. I’m at a loss.
@@pattyrobberson4152 I have not tried that, thanks so much. I dont necessarily purposely try to wear it wavy. I just air dry. I don’t scrunch and do all the things.
Hey Abby what do you think of Lush's Super Milk leave in? I got a tester and it seems it leaves my hair shiny and smooth and smells divine but I'm not sure about the ingredients as Lush has a more natural approach to their products. It does make my hair feel amazing but does it actually benefit it? Can you cover that leave in?
I'm going to put it out there that I hate the Living Proof. I've seen countless others have the same problems. Makes hair drier, protein over load damages hair, leaves a horrid residue, etc.. Biggest waste of money for me. Unfortunately I bought the larger sized bottle and am stuck with it. Protein over load causes dry, brittle and dull hair. I'd only suggest using it for extremely damaged hair. i do like the OGX leave in light coconut oil which doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
I love your videos! Thank you so much for always being so thorough!! II'd love it if you could do a video on products that have come out for graying hair. I have seen some that claim to reverse graying, and I'd love to hear your expert opinion on whether or not that could ever work (I'm guessing the answer is no). I'd also love to hear your advice for how to best care for gray hair; for instance, should it be treated as if it is dry/damaged? I know that you're too young to have gray hair, but I'd still love to hear your thoughts regarding the science behind graying and the products that supposedly help aging hair. Thank you!!
Thank you for all these suggestions, I have been looking for a really good leaving conditioner! Also I want to reiterate that you should be wearing a satin bonnet to bed! Please! I have noticed a big difference with my hair health and less breakage by using a bonnet at night. Or a satin lined cap. Either way.
The only thing is after I use living proof triple bond repair to towl dried hair color fanatic pureolgy leave in spray it's still very Tangled no matter how long I wait especially the dryer it gets help please anyone thanks for this video so informative
Great video. I have been binge watching many of your videos and some multiple times. Would you mind doing an updated porosity video. I have been oiling my hair and using protein bond products, and cleansing each wash but have not seen any improvement. It's been at least 3 months and my hair still is thin, brittle and not growing. I did the porosity test where you put your hair in water - mine floats. But yet my hair is very thin, gets wet easily and dries fairly quickly. Need help. Keep up with the great content.
I have chin length, fine thin hair - I don't use leave in conditioner because my hair is SUPER easily weighed down and I can't use much before getting sticky. Would my heat protectant be enough? I use Kerastase thermique heat protectant, and after wash day I rub like 1 drop of oil in my hands and run through my ends.
I’m glad you posted this because I’ve been feeling like the Color Fanatic LIC spray I have been using is too heavy for my naturally wavy but fine hair. Do you have any suggestions for a very light weight LIC?
I have fine wavy hair and I also find the Pureology leave-in conditioner too heavy unless my hair is just extra dry. I prefer the Redken One United leave-in conditioner. It never weighs down my hair.
I personally love the redkin acidic leave in treatment. I have very fine naturally curly hair that is naturally white/grey. I am 62. It also has heat protectant in it. I cannot use much of what Abby recommends as we have very different hair.
My hair feels softest/silkiest/lightest when it's freshly washed, and then as it gets dirtier it doesn't ever LOOK oily or dirty, it just gets rougher. I swear I could never wash it and it would never look oily/dirty, the texture would just get worse and worse. When my hair gets rough and dry, I try to add oil to it (like a little bit of the olaplex oil or bumble and bumble to the lengths and ends before bed) but it actually gets ROUGHER? No matter what I do, my hair ends up looking dry and damaged a few days after I wash it, but then when I wash it again it's restored. I've never seen anyone else talk about this, did you read about it in your trichology course and do you know what to do?
Do you have any thoughts on hair glazes? I was thinking about going to the drug store or going on Amazon and picking one up to get some real glass like shine on my virgin light brown hair. But I don't know which one to get? Thanks Abbey!
I am eager to find out how I can style heavy thick hair. Especially how to use a curling iron and have a curls stay. If I curl my hair with a curling iron they just fall right out.
I adore you, your videos and channel, but for the life of me, please tell me: how can a person who works out everyday like I do, mantain a haircare routine? Even with daily workout, I dont wash my hair everyday, I do it 2 times a week, one is a deep cleanse followed by a mask, the second cleanse is a gentle cleanser that has conditioning abilities. I use all Oribe and it works for me. Gold lust for the first cleanse plus the detox mousse, and the green gentle cleanser for the second cleanse. I have short hair and would like to put on something afterwards, but I feel it's useless as it comes off through sweat, and this increases the chances of getting acne. I would really appreciate it if you have any comments. My skin is oily and my scalp feels pretty healthy, but the hair itself could be way better. Oribe has been a game changer though.
Great info as usual. All of my leave in conditioners are high end so I thought I would try one of your drugstore recommendations. I was astonished that not one of them is available in Canada.
With the Moroccan Hair oil - from that actual brand - I like the initial look on my hair, but I've heard it's not really reparative. Do you have a recommendation that's similar possibly not as pricey as Kerastase, but not necessarily a drug store? (granted I know all our hair is different and desired look is different)
Hi Abbey! I have been using the Hairitage argan oil elixir and have been loving it! I have fine hair and this oil is very forgiving, smells amazing, and makes my hair so shiny. I would love for you to let me know your opinion! ☺️ love your videos!
I think you would use it the same way she uses that Living Proof Bond treatment, leave it on for the 10 minutes then do your next step with products you use. That’s what I do. I have both of them and alternate on wash days.
Yes, she uses conditioner or mask in the shower and Living Proof after. Abbey never goes without conditioner. I can't speak to what the instructions say to do.
I just watched Abbey’s hair vlog video, so this info is from that: ! epres she uses as the first part of her pre-showering routine (which is followed by the pre-shower hair oiling), and she uses k18 in the shower after shampooing so that it can penetrate better on clean hair. Oh and she mentioned she does not do k18 on the same days she does hair oiling! Hope that helps! 💗
One question I have is product-specific- In your video where you showed the lab results from different bond repair products, living proof came out basically at the bottom in terms of results. I assumed at the time that you may change your routine to exclude this product based on those findings, but obviously you haven't. I'm just wondering what about the product makes you feel you still need to use it. I know it does have some amount of heat protection itself, but just wanted to know. I tried it and didn't feel like it did anything for me personally
So the results from that video basically confirmed that there was no way to know for sure which treatment was best with SEM because you don't have the same exact starting point for each hair strand / product. The best way for brands to demonstrate bond repair efficacy is with tensile strength testing, which Living Proof has done! But the reason I kept it in my routine at that point is because of my personal experience / results with it.
How much do you think all these products cost- for all your routines? Pre cleanse, scalp, shampoo, conditioner, hair mask, leave in conditioner, heat protectant, bond repair and styling products? 😳
Thought I lost my mind!! Watched twice and then a third time!!😊😊 Thank you again, for your recommendations, your knowledge and advice. My gray, thin and fine hair has never been more shiny and healthy!!! Are there specific products for gray hair? I appreciate you so much, many blessings!!!💖💖💖
hahaha SORRY! Awww yay I'm so happy to hear that! When it comes to a general haircare routine, no. You don't need a separate set of products for gray! Unless you are aiming to deposit color 💗
Not sure about that. Many women find their gray hair has changed in texture, density etc. than it was before turning gray. For example, they find their hair is now frizzier, drier, curlier, more difficult to manage etc.
I find my hair is just as straight, fine and less damaged then when I was coloring it. However, maybe a little thinner and maybe a little more frizzy. I now use demi permanent color as it is very white. We smudge my roots (lavender or blue) and silver down the length to get rid of any yellowing.
@@summersadie3687 I only have a small amount of grey and I am finding as I get older and my hair is dryer that it likes products for afro hair more, like cantu products. Maybe something worth trying.
Hi Abbey - I left a question on the first posting of this video, so. I am retyping it. Do you recommend doing the coconut oil and the Garnier bond repair on the same day? I was wondering if the coconut oil coating might prevent the penetration of the bond repair. Thanks!
So when the question was asked “if my leave has heat protectant, should I still use more?” You said you don’t believe so. Then later you said for dry ironing you use living proof. So I’m confused because that is a heat protectant for dry hair before ironing.
@Youssef Hesham: Abbey can you talk about the causes of why natural hair not being silky as before.Never bleached or used heat and i get a haircut every 2mths ( i am a boy😂) so i don’t think it is external damage. It is now not rough to the touch but not as silky as before and dry after shampoo. It started to change when i was 10. Now im 18. So what do u think may have happened. Did my hair become more porous as i grew up or is it sebum related, my scalp might take ages to get greasy.
Ah man so all our comments are lost? How in the world do 4 pumps of Living Proof cover your hair? I feel like 10 barely does anything for my medium length hair
Is letting my hair completely air dry without brushing stupid? I feel like I have less fall out when I do brush it, if I wait till it’s dry. Trying to limit heat
You're not having deja vu lol... had to re-upload because the original wasn't letting us get HD! Hope everyone is having a great Sunday 💗
ok good i was confused lol
Okay, I thought I was crazy or something when the video disappeared 😂😂

Yay welcome! so glad you are here xx. Hahaha I love the interjections too. YES I am filming that next week.... stay tuned! And love that idea!
I would LOVE a video dedicated to those of us who have gone gray naturally and it's now a horribly frizzy coarse but very thin mesd!
She doesn't have either grey or coarse hair though....
@natmya243 I can see that, but she still educates people with hair types than she has.

I LOVE the Bumble & Bumble spray. I hate detangling my hair without it. I also like the light scent. I love this series.
Same here. I also use the Pureology but my (very coarse, non-coloured) hair responds well to the Bumble and Bumble Primer. I use the oil as well.

@@pattyrobberson4152 I have not tried that, thanks so much. I dont necessarily purposely try to wear it wavy. I just air dry. I don’t scrunch and do all the things.
The Pureology leave-in conditioner is also too heavy for my fine wavy hair. I prefer the Redken One United leave-in conditioner.
Wavy hair hair routine when? :D
Hey Abby what do you think of Lush's Super Milk leave in? I got a tester and it seems it leaves my hair shiny and smooth and smells divine but I'm not sure about the ingredients as Lush has a more natural approach to their products. It does make my hair feel amazing but does it actually benefit it? Can you cover that leave in?
I’ve been using the Marc Anthony leave in and it is awesome.
I'm going to put it out there that I hate the Living Proof. I've seen countless others have the same problems. Makes hair drier, protein over load damages hair, leaves a horrid residue, etc.. Biggest waste of money for me. Unfortunately I bought the larger sized bottle and am stuck with it. Protein over load causes dry, brittle and dull hair. I'd only suggest using it for extremely damaged hair. i do like the OGX leave in light coconut oil which doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
Hated the Living Proof!
I love your videos! Thank you so much for always being so thorough!! II'd love it if you could do a video on products that have come out for graying hair. I have seen some that claim to reverse graying, and I'd love to hear your expert opinion on whether or not that could ever work (I'm guessing the answer is no). I'd also love to hear your advice for how to best care for gray hair; for instance, should it be treated as if it is dry/damaged? I know that you're too young to have gray hair, but I'd still love to hear your thoughts regarding the science behind graying and the products that supposedly help aging hair. Thank you!!
Have you ever evaluated In Common Magic Myst? I'm wondering if you could try it out and tell us your thoughts.
Thank you for all these suggestions, I have been looking for a really good leaving conditioner! Also I want to reiterate that you should be wearing a satin bonnet to bed! Please! I have noticed a big difference with my hair health and less breakage by using a bonnet at night. Or a satin lined cap. Either way.
of course! So happy to help. I can't sleep with anything covering my head, I'm a sweaty sleeper😅
The only thing is after I use living proof triple bond repair to towl dried hair color fanatic pureolgy leave in spray it's still very Tangled no matter how long I wait especially the dryer it gets help please anyone thanks for this video so informative
Thank you!!
Great review! Appreciate your knowledge and time invested in this topic. You have helped me achieve nice, soft hair! No fizzy ends! Thank you!,❤️❤️🥰
Great video. I have been binge watching many of your videos and some multiple times. Would you mind doing an updated porosity video. I have been oiling my hair and using protein bond products, and cleansing each wash but have not seen any improvement. It's been at least 3 months and my hair still is thin, brittle and not growing. I did the porosity test where you put your hair in water - mine floats. But yet my hair is very thin, gets wet easily and dries fairly quickly. Need help. Keep up with the great content.
What's the best leave in for fine hair, uk options?
You can get Pureolgy here and the bumble and bumble
I have chin length, fine thin hair - I don't use leave in conditioner because my hair is SUPER easily weighed down and I can't use much before getting sticky. Would my heat protectant be enough? I use Kerastase thermique heat protectant, and after wash day I rub like 1 drop of oil in my hands and run through my ends.
Can u review the fenty beauty hair line
I’m glad you posted this because I’ve been feeling like the Color Fanatic LIC spray I have been using is too heavy for my naturally wavy but fine hair. Do you have any suggestions for a very light weight LIC?
I have fine wavy hair and I also find the Pureology leave-in conditioner too heavy unless my hair is just extra dry. I prefer the Redken One United leave-in conditioner. It never weighs down my hair.
@@EverythingAndNothing08 hmm never tried the Redken thank you :)
@@EverythingAndNothing08try the Kerastase Nutritive blow dry mist. I have fine thin hair and this is amazing
Hi Abbey! Would your routine change much if you were to air dry your hair?
THANK YOU 🤍
Thanks so much! I enjoy so much help from your videos ... Always!
Why not Redken 25 One United? I have been told it is almost identical to Color Fanatic and less expensive to use.
It's also very light weight compared to Pureology.
Can you please review the Redken acidic bonding concentrate leave in treatment please
I personally love the redkin acidic leave in treatment. I have very fine naturally curly hair that is naturally white/grey. I am 62. It also has heat protectant in it. I cannot use much of what Abby recommends as we have very different hair.
I would love you to review the Color wow leave ins & money mist
Also thank you
My hair feels softest/silkiest/lightest when it's freshly washed, and then as it gets dirtier it doesn't ever LOOK oily or dirty, it just gets rougher. I swear I could never wash it and it would never look oily/dirty, the texture would just get worse and worse. When my hair gets rough and dry, I try to add oil to it (like a little bit of the olaplex oil or bumble and bumble to the lengths and ends before bed) but it actually gets ROUGHER? No matter what I do, my hair ends up looking dry and damaged a few days after I wash it, but then when I wash it again it's restored. I've never seen anyone else talk about this, did you read about it in your trichology course and do you know what to do?
Do you have any thoughts on hair glazes? I was thinking about going to the drug store or going on Amazon and picking one up to get some real glass like shine on my virgin light brown hair. But I don't know which one to get? Thanks Abbey!
Was just looking to see if you had a video on this exact topic! Also, do you have a link for that small claw clip in the beginning of the video?
I am eager to find out how I can style heavy thick hair. Especially how to use a curling iron and have a curls stay. If I curl my hair with a curling iron they just fall right out.
I adore you, your videos and channel, but for the life of me, please tell me: how can a person who works out everyday like I do, mantain a haircare routine? Even with daily workout, I dont wash my hair everyday, I do it 2 times a week, one is a deep cleanse followed by a mask, the second cleanse is a gentle cleanser that has conditioning abilities. I use all Oribe and it works for me. Gold lust for the first cleanse plus the detox mousse, and the green gentle cleanser for the second cleanse. I have short hair and would like to put on something afterwards, but I feel it's useless as it comes off through sweat, and this increases the chances of getting acne. I would really appreciate it if you have any comments. My skin is oily and my scalp feels pretty healthy, but the hair itself could be way better. Oribe has been a game changer though.
Have you tried Garnier fructis leave in conditioner? If so, did you like it?
What's your thoughts on Kristin Ess' products? Can you do a full review on the brand Kristin Ess please? It's easily accessible by us here in Asia.
What happened to your use of the Pantene Pro-V serum? When do you use this product and/or for what?
Great info as usual. All of my leave in conditioners are high end so I thought I would try one of your drugstore recommendations. I was astonished that not one of them is available in Canada.
You're kidding! That shocks me too. I would bet that they have some similar products from brands like L'Oreal... that's a safe place to start!
Please try/ review color wow cocktails leave ins 🙏
Before I blew-drew my lower ankhs, I make sure I don't oil my morporks
With the Moroccan Hair oil - from that actual brand - I like the initial look on my hair, but I've heard it's not really reparative. Do you have a recommendation that's similar possibly not as pricey as Kerastase, but not necessarily a drug store? (granted I know all our hair is different and desired look is different)
Hi Abbey! I have been using the Hairitage argan oil elixir and have been loving it! I have fine hair and this oil is very forgiving, smells amazing, and makes my hair so shiny. I would love for you to let me know your opinion! ☺️ love your videos!
Let's take this discussion off this media
Can I ask what you use for your heat protection between washes?
What about the Pantene leave in serum in the egg shaped bottle?
How can I incorporate the color wow dream coat in my routine? Or should I use it alone?
so they recommend using that before any other leave ins!
I think you would use it the same way she uses that Living Proof Bond treatment, leave it on for the 10 minutes then do your next step with products you use. That’s what I do. I have both of them and alternate on wash days.
Can u recommend any products without coconut or argan for nut allergy sufferers?
Do you use conditioner in the shower then put on the living proof, or no conditioner? No one ever answers this question.
Yes, she uses conditioner or mask in the shower and Living Proof after. Abbey never goes without conditioner.
I can't speak to what the instructions say to do.
Use both
When do you use K18 and epres? Is that a different step?
I just watched Abbey’s hair vlog video, so this info is from that: ! epres she uses as the first part of her pre-showering routine (which is followed by the pre-shower hair oiling), and she uses k18 in the shower after shampooing so that it can penetrate better on clean hair. Oh and she mentioned she does not do k18 on the same days she does hair oiling! Hope that helps! 💗
@@Silverwingz007 Thank you! So confusing but I guess it's worth it :)
One question I have is product-specific- In your video where you showed the lab results from different bond repair products, living proof came out basically at the bottom in terms of results. I assumed at the time that you may change your routine to exclude this product based on those findings, but obviously you haven't. I'm just wondering what about the product makes you feel you still need to use it. I know it does have some amount of heat protection itself, but just wanted to know. I tried it and didn't feel like it did anything for me personally
So the results from that video basically confirmed that there was no way to know for sure which treatment was best with SEM because you don't have the same exact starting point for each hair strand / product. The best way for brands to demonstrate bond repair efficacy is with tensile strength testing, which Living Proof has done! But the reason I kept it in my routine at that point is because of my personal experience / results with it.
@@AbbeyYung ahh ok got it, thank you!
How much do you think all these products cost- for all your routines? Pre cleanse, scalp, shampoo, conditioner, hair mask, leave in conditioner, heat protectant, bond repair and styling products? 😳

Clicked so fast
💗thanks for watching!
Is volume mousse something to add into a post-shower routine?
Thought I lost my mind!! Watched twice and then a third time!!😊😊
Thank you again, for your recommendations, your knowledge and advice. My gray, thin and fine hair has never been more shiny and healthy!!! Are there specific products for gray hair? I appreciate you so much, many blessings!!!💖💖💖
hahaha SORRY! Awww yay I'm so happy to hear that! When it comes to a general haircare routine, no. You don't need a separate set of products for gray! Unless you are aiming to deposit color 💗
Not sure about that. Many women find their gray hair has changed in texture, density etc. than it was before turning gray. For example, they find their hair is now frizzier, drier, curlier, more difficult to manage etc.
I find my hair is just as straight, fine and less damaged then when I was coloring it. However, maybe a little thinner and maybe a little more frizzy. I now use demi permanent color as it is very white. We smudge my roots (lavender or blue) and silver down the length to get rid of any yellowing.
@@summersadie3687 I only have a small amount of grey and I am finding as I get older and my hair is dryer that it likes products for afro hair more, like cantu products. Maybe something worth trying.
Emily did no such thing 😂
Hi Abbey - I left a question on the first posting of this video, so. I am retyping it. Do you recommend doing the coconut oil and the Garnier bond repair on the same day? I was wondering if the coconut oil coating might prevent the penetration of the bond repair. Thanks!
Let's take this discussion off this media
So when the question was asked “if my leave has heat protectant, should I still use more?” You said you don’t believe so. Then later you said for dry ironing you use living proof. So I’m confused because that is a heat protectant for dry hair before ironing.
Thank you. I'd like to take this discussion off this media
Don't mind me, just commenting for the algorithm
what can i use if i need heat protection on the top of my head?🥺
@Youssef Hesham: Abbey can you talk about the causes of why natural hair not being silky as before.Never bleached or used heat and i get a haircut every 2mths ( i am a boy😂) so i don’t think it is external damage. It is now not rough to the touch but not as silky as before and dry after shampoo. It started to change when i was 10. Now im 18. So what do u think may have happened. Did my hair become more porous as i grew up or is it sebum related, my scalp might take ages to get greasy.
Changing hormones can change hair texture! This is really common actually.
@@AbbeyYungi assume there is nothing i can do😂
I got static each time I tried Purology Color Fanatic. Was it the shampoo and conditioning and bonding treatments or something else I was doing wrong?
No lil Elsie paws today?! Boooo 🐾🐾😆 great video, thank you
Thank you. I'd like to take this discussion off this media
Love your sister's edit😂
TOP SO WE TALK DIRECTLY
Hello, did you ever tried the Sisley brand for your hair ? Thank you !!!
No! I didn't realize they had haircare!
Does this work for fine hair as well? Working on getting my hair healthy again
Got to the part where you said you have fine hair...lol
Ah man so all our comments are lost? How in the world do 4 pumps of Living Proof cover your hair? I feel like 10 barely does anything for my medium length hair
Is letting my hair completely air dry without brushing stupid? I feel like I have less fall out when I do brush it, if I wait till it’s dry. Trying to limit heat
Let's take this discussion off this media
On your K18 days do you still use all the other products also?
Yes she does. The only product she doesn't use on K18 days is pre-shampoo oil.
DO YOU PUT CONDITIONER IN THE SHOWER THEN PUT ON THE LIVING PROOF OR NO CONDITIONER? NO ONE EVER ANSWERS THIS QUESTION.😊
If your hair is very dry or damaged, do both! I do and my hair has been healthier since.
Yes she always uses conditioner or mask, she never skips this step. I cannot speak to what the instructions on the bottle say to do.
Who has all this time to do this for Hair wash ?? I wish i could , but i csn barely manage shower , skincare and basics .
Agreed. Most people do not have that much time to do their hair. Personally I just want to get it over with.
