Hey y’all! Thanks so much for watching! Please check out my RECIPE BIBLE!! It’s finally available and is only $20! It has 40+ formulas to help your hair GROW and THRIVE!! Here’s the link 👉🏾 efikzara.sellfy.store/p/efikzaras-recipe-bible/
What grease has done for my 4c hair:
- Drastically reduced shrinkage
- Retained moisture for over a week (without re-moisturizing)
- Changed my hair texture * not hair type *
- Reduces breakage and tangles (because of retained stretch and moisture)
Grease is the “sebum” that my kinky hair was in need of all this time 👍🏾 not oil, or butter. I think more type 4 people need to give this a try. It will change their perception of their hair drastically. Most haven’t seen their hair in it’s best state yet because they don’t know what it’s missing.
I must try this cos my hair wouldn’t stop breaking or shedding. Please for how long will you advise to leave your protective style such as braids / twist ?
@@_kayceemil Usually I keep mine in for about a month. I wouldn’t go longer than 2 months but that may work for you, as long as you’re still taking care of your hair within the style. That’s why I prefer braids. I wash my braids when they get dirty, and just coat my hair with leave in moisturizer and grease within the braids. My hair grows very well when I take care of it in a protective style. I hope this helps!
Absolutely 💯..i love my blue magic my hair loves it 💙
Do you think grease can suit 3b/ 3c type of hair. My hair is very dry and don’t lock moisture
@@mirusky5549 I’ve seen a lot of great videos and testimonies about grease working for type 3 hair as well! It doesn’t hurt to to try it with some leave in conditioner. You might see some positive results!
I had beautiful long 4c hair when I was a kid. I asked my mom what she used ... water and grease.
Same, that’s all my mom had used in my hair. My hair was mid-back!
How do you wear your hair when using grease?
@@ayeoritset5049 twist outs mostly. But when putting it up as well.
@@ayeoritset5049 I used to use eco a lot, but was having to wash my hair almost every couple of days.
I can attest been using grease for 3 months and my hair went from a small Afro to close to bone collar length. It’s nuts, i haven’t had this much growth since i was a child.
My hair has grown SO MUCH since using hair grease. When I stretch my hair it goes to my collar bone and that's from a year and seven months of using it in my regimen. It's a classic for a reason!
Yep 👍👍👍
How do you use grease?
For anyone wanting to know, I use DAX grease (bergamot, lanolin, and hemp!).
@@ayeoritset5049 I use it as a sealant. I moisturize my hair with HOT water, aloe vera gel, and shea butter, then grease last.
Have faith in JESUS CHRIST as LORD and SAVIOR for HE SAVES from hell❗️
*What is the Gospel?*
The true gospel is the good news that God saves sinners. Man is by nature sinful and separated from God with no hope of remedying that situation. But God, by His power, provided the means of man’s redemption in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Savior, Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 2:8-9
For it is by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of GOD, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
Romans 10:9
9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
JESUS CHRIST can come anytime!
Just Believe ❤️ Love you and GOD BLESS
I’ve been natural for nearly 10 years and the growth is practically non-existent. I’ve tried so many oils but my scalp and hair gets really dry, particularly in winter. I’m going to go back to water and grease. My mum used it on my hair when I was growing up and my hair and scalp was always thriving. I’m 100% going back to grease and water.
I started using grease again a couple months ago and my hair has never felt better 🤗 My 4C hair used to feel so dry and fragile and no oils or butters helped.. I came across your videos and went to the beauty supply store and got me some good old blue magic and never looked back. My hair is so thick and shiny now and it’s retaining length. It feels strong but still so moisturized soft and healthy. This is what my hair needed all along. Growing up we used to call it hair food, it truly has my hair feeling well nourished.
The only problem with grease is we used to apply it as a moisturizer (oftentimes on dry hair) instead of a sealant
My mom used to grease my scalp as a child and I never had problems with dandruff and flaky scalp. Then I stopped and could not get rid of the flaky scalp. I just started using sulfur 8 and I’m already seeing improvements. I’m sticking with the grease.
I had the same issue. I am back to using indian hemp hair food and water, and i haven't looked back!
Why are people so shocked when it comes to hair grease I'm 58 that's all my mother used in my hair and I still use to this very day with castor oil and me and my children all have beautiful thick hair.
That fro is everything Sis. 😍
I have been using grease since my big chop and it has been working wonders for my hair. I have gained over 8 inches in growth in just 1 year. They say ditch grease....I doubt I will ever let it go. It's working for me. So excited 🤸🤸🤸🤸🎉🎉🎉🎉
The hair gurus want you to ditch it ….So you can use their affiliate links to buy the products that will do nothing for you ! Keep that grease girl 🔥👏🏽💕!
@@briannarichardson1596 Girl say it again. It's the sad truth.
@@nickynatro facts , meanwhile we don’t even know what they use off camera … probably grease lol
@@briannarichardson1596 Lol so true😊
Sis what grease are you using
Grease is a must-have, my hair is softer and I experience minimal breakage.
I’ve just gotten back into using hair grease more specifically from the blue magic hair grease line (the castor oil one is my fave!!). I use it on my end of my hair and I’m also using to grow out the hair on the nape of my neck!! Thank you for all your hair grease videos they are so informative!!! 🤎
Yes!!! No more single strand knots. I use my diy grease on my ends 3 times a week. Hair length is now below my collar bone. Thank you Zara!!
What is your grease diy
Grease, pink lotion and water are all I need nowadays
I love grease . I use Indian hemp grease & my scalp loves it
Hey girl 👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾 which brand?
@@_brownsugaalifestyle I use blue magic. I found it on Amazon
Yes! I love indian hemp grease, smells so good. I use the Kuza brand
The first time I watched this video was two years ago. My hair has thrived ever since. I revisit just because I know the loads of information therein
You inspired me to try grease again and after a year I cannot imagine ever going without it again. It helped me so much with my dry scalp. Thanks for sharing
My favorite grease is virgin hair fertilizer. Which is like sulfur 8 but don’t smell as strong. Does wonders for my hair under my box braids.
My hair loves grease!
I never stopped using grease or pink oil moisturizer!!
Giiirl thanks for your content and the effort you put making them, just came here to brag about how grease is changing my hair game, day 4 rocking my afro without remoisturizing, just wow!
I literally came to your channel to check on u! And bam! A video!!!!! Hi love ❤️ you look absolutely stunning as usual 😍🥰 great video!!!!
Omgeeeee, thanks fave 😍😍😍😍! Always super gassed to see a comment from you 🥺❤️❤️❤️
Sulfur 8 has always worked for all hair types.
Some people really try and say grease is bad. Black people have been using grease for a while
Yes!! Thank you for this follow up video!!🤍
Can you please do a video on how you style/shape your Afro?
I second this, as the hair grows it’s harder to get into an Afro, whereas before it would fall into an Afro shape very easily
Apart from fluffing out a twist out, I can’t really get a great shaped Afro anymore...
Thank You for my Recipe Bible….I love it. Yes, hair grease and strict regimen is key ✨💕✨
You should be. I don't know why people don't do it anymore. I think it's a trend. I never stopped
I went back to grease after following the oil trend that was destroying my pillow. I had to sleep with a towel over it 🙄, like that was any better lol . My hair is the thickest and longest it’s ever been with grease and water ….. I’m hoarding it now 😈
@@briannarichardson1596 same results from oil too loll, I get back to grease forever 🤝🏾
You and your hair are sooo beautiful!!
Please, you're absolutely stunningggg!!! Gaaaawd!
Amazing Content ‼️🔥🔥
I've been waiting for your next video since forever😍😍😍😍
Your afro is absolutely beautiful 😍
Yup i use blue magic under my leave in conditioner and for my scalp i make my own concoction! I use castor oil as the base then i mix essential oils and 1 big tablespoons of sulfur 8 hair grease that i warm up and mix it together and baby i tell you my scalp thanks me. 😊👌🏾
I will have 2 try this
@@peloc5660 yes try it and my hair growth 👌🏾
Grease under leave in? How does the leave in penetrate then?
@@jk9084 I think it really depends on ur hair needs and what it likes. I think to help seal someone correct me if wrong
So like instead of an oil. She chooses something thicker so I can see how. But yes it's to help seal sry I had 2 go back n read
In love with your editing style!
Thank you so much!!
Just got here in time for the live yay.
Yayyyy!!! Thanks for coming ❤️
I am very pleased with your presentation
Love, peace and hair grease ✌🏾
whooooo GURLLL im lovin dem AFROO HAIR!!!😙
I've been thinking about getting back to using hair grease in a major way lately...ive always used it...but not on a regular basis...thanks for sharing this video...i like ultrasheen...its super moisturizing and lightweight at the same time
Zara this is tempting! I used African Hemp grease years back my hair said no but think I may give blue magic a go. Another well informed video as always!
We have never had a problem using grease we were raised up using grease you are right it helps with dryness thank you for supporting grease there's many out there and they are very beneficial 😊
My hair has been so tamed since using my hair grease and Pomade. The fact that they are petroleum free is even better. Love this!
Which ones do you use
@@Dezdamoonbear I make a hair pomade and hair grease
@lesha What is the main ingredient you use that makes it a grease and does it have the same thickness as petroleum?
@@sgg000 olus oil and yes it has the same consistency as petroleum
@@ieshamitchell9083 thank you! 💕
I've been struggling with dandruff for a while and hair grease just fixed this problem Dx
I use grease on my daughter hair .., it is voluminous and thick … it work very well on her hair
Am glad I finally found someone with the same texture of my hair and different guide to 4c. Can’t wait to try this tips. Pleaseeeeeee for how long do you advice to leave your protective style such as twist or braid ?
I love grease ! And yes I grease my scalp every week!
I love my blue magic..my hair loves it
I started using blue magic Indian hemp and my hair is much soft I have 4c hair and 68 years old thank you for the information I love your videos stay bless African queen 👸❤🇬🇾
👋 I’m 56 and Phillips is my last name. Good to see a mature person like me in the conversation 🙂
OMG !!!
I found your picture in Google and I printed it out and pasted it on my vision board for long healthy hair and never know that you are a TH-camr lol
I've been using grease it's the best thing why would we ever stop using it?🤔
Perfection great video sis!#hairgoals your simply beautiful 🤷🏾♀️🎉👸🏾🎉💁🏿♀️🎉❤🎯🙏🏾
Because the natural hair nazis said that grease would clog our scalp, dry out our hair and cause breakage. And they said that petrolatum wasn't natural, even though it comes from the literal ground.
My hair has less tangles since using grease.
My scalp is less itchy.
I use conditioner under grease.
Yassss grease is our friend. Thanks to you and a chemist I follow confirmed that grease is good for our hair.
My favorite is the castor oil blue magic I still will use the blue, blue magic.
I think the confusion about grease is because its not use correctly. Yasssss we need to add moisture first. So I use grease on my wash day only along with my lco (oil i use is my diy ayurverdic blend) method and green tea spritz with hibiscus.
I agree 100%! I also don't like to keep remoisturizing my hair with grease. Only on wash day and through the week the ends only. For the rest I use my DIY moringa oil. Do you mean Curly Chemistry? Love her!
@@jk9084 yes, I luv curly chemistry. She keeps it 💯 plus ya can't argue with science 😉.
Farida (Curly Proverbz) is bae too tho she has the ayurverdic herbs on 🔐.
@@freda4882 Yes I follow both and also Sherea delSol. 90% of my regimen is ayurvedic now.
@@jk9084 me too girl and Naptual85 can't forget about melanin hair care
@@jk9084 oh yeah and hennasooq
Your so beautiful 😍😍😍
I love grease. I used it when I was relaxed n my hair flourished n start back using it as a natural n my hair feel so good. Like you said, I experienced less breakage as well. Sulfur8 is my go to.
Same now that I think back at it I haven’t used grease in literally almost ten years following natural hair trends
Amazing to hear this I wonder if the ingredients have changed from years ago? May ne without mineral oil? Grease always sat on my hair my scalp itched continuously and my hair broke frequently especially the nape and sides to a few inches. Relaxeres saved me. I went natural about 5 years ago use hair oils and leave in conditioners and finally my hair grows like wild fire! Currently about shoulder length, never in my life had this length it's a dream.
Grease is a sealant and is supposed to sit on your hair. Most hair greases contain a lot of plant extracts and lanolin, which some people by be sensitive or allergic to. Aside from Vaseline, Royal Crown is probably one of, if not the most, minimal hair grease on the market. It only contains petrolatum, olive oil, and fragrance.
This could sound weird but I love the shape of your face 😅
I use doo gro grease sulfur 8 and argan oil and hair lotion
U still look beautiful
Honestly, it just sounds like your hair is moisturized. I personally hate grease (the reason is in the name lol) but if it works for you and prevents your hair from drying out, go for it.
Is this just a revamp of those past videos such as "Why I use hair grease" or "Benefits of hair grease"?
Yes. Folks running out of content, lol.
I use softee mango butter grease, and it works perfectly fine!! Love your video
Hey! So it's grease? Not butter? I've been using whipped Shea butter and coconut oil recently, and its been really good. But it is heavier than grease lol 😅
@@samf.s8786 hey, yes it's a grease, it's really soft and lightweight. What whipped Shea butter do you use? I like heavy moisturizer too lol.
@@samf.s8786 I feel grease is heavier than shea butter mixed with oil. It turns quicker into an oil on your hands.
Are you guys using the grease on wet or damp/spritz with water? I applied grease to wet hair after I put in my leave in but when my hair dried it didn’t seal any moisture? Any tips?
How often do you use a clarifying shampoo to prevent buildup?
My hair only itches when I have my hair covered, it doesn’t like to be covered but everybody keeps saying to cover my hair
I have used different kinds of hair grease 1. Softee 2. African 's best Super Gro 3. Ultra sheen 4. BB Super Gro 5. Blue Magic 6. Softee African Shea butter. Are any good to use for hair grease because I don't know which one to use because I get buildup, breakage from some I do use and spill ends and dryness and flaky scalp but sometimes I get itchy scalp so are any of those for my hair to use but I have never used Sulfer 8 is that a good one to use for your hair.
Zara spray water on her hair then add grease to hair. Water n water.
And also use clarifying shampoo to get rid of buildup
Hey Efik, me love it but I can't remoisturise my hair in mid week when it's dry coz water can't penetrate my hair.
washing my hair every 2-3 days and using grease is the ticket.
i saw people with 4c have a ginacurl and there hair was on the back what do u think about it? i am thinking about it
I went to your site to purchase your recipe bible and it appears to only be a e-book. Are you able to send a hard copy?

I know I’m late but I wanna start using grease. Which one is the best blue magic or DAX pomade the original green one?
I’ve only used DAX pomade and never used the blue magic. But I want to know which one is better. So please help me out!
And should I put a leave in conditioner before I add the grease? And seal it all in with a Jamaican castor oil?
I like blue magic. I use the super gro or Indian hemp. You should always use a leave-in conditioner and wet your hair before applying grease. Never put grease on dry hair because it is a sealant. I like to oil my scalp and hair after I put on grease.
Does grease clog your pores????
I use grease. When I tell you that is the best decision I have ever made, its real deal. Did a chop January where my length was mid neck. Its october now my hair is at the length on my upper back. To tell you the truth for me to grow that length to my back prior to my heat damage in 2019 it took me 4 years to grow my hair. It only took me 10 months to grow my hair that long. My regime back than I used water based cream moisturizers. I won't use them again.
I learned, by African women, you are not to place grease on your scalp because it blocks oxygen from your scalp nor air can go through. Your scalp needs oils not grease or beeswax. Its too thick. To put grease on your scalp causes dryness and other problems to your scalp. Grease, beeswax and butters belongs to the hair not scalp.
Do you use grease as a sealant or how do you use it?
@@ayeoritset5049 yes as a sealant. All I use a water or aloe vera and any liquid solution of choice and grease. I add until it feels moisturized and I twist or braid.
@Ameerah McSweeney same here but I learned not to do. So I am not going to try lol
Actually, grease is noncomedogenic (does not clog pores). It is therefore very safe to use on the scalp, especially if you have a dry scalp. Dermatologists recommend that people with dry skin issues even use Vaseline (petrolatum) on their bodies and faces so use on the scalp is not an issue. It is actually less likely to clog the pores than oils and butters, which are typically more comedogenic than grease.
Please, let’s not spread harmful misinformation.
@@EfikZara grease on the scalp is not for everyone. My niece suffered from bad scalp from putting grease on her scalp. I advice not to and her scalp is okay. So its not misinformation. Its not for everyone. I don't listen to everything what dermatologist say because they don't know how to take care of black people hair. The reason I say not to because I get my source from African people, African women. People here in America are trying to figure out how to take care of their hair. I went back to the source and its not here in America.
What was # 6? Please
Does this regime work for people with pcos who suffer from constant hair loss and thin hair?
What would you recommend for diagnosed people with thin hair who want to make their hair fuller and longer? Thanks for your video, I love them
Hey! My sister has PCOS, I'd say the best thing for her hair was getting the PCOS under control. I am so sorry, I know how hard it can be. I hope you're feeling well and that your hair thrives 😊🤗
@@samf.s8786 I concur! I have PCOS and taking medication (Metformin) helped to get the condition under control. I use JBCO and other oils, along with water to keep it moisturized. I'm thinking about incorporating grease and water.
If you are able, you may want to consider seeing a dermatologist for help with hair and skin issues. My dermatologist has been a game changer for my skin.
Sha ron, I wish you the best on your PCOS journey. Get yourself a good medical team. Keep asking questions and seeking help.
For PCOS, look into Inositol supplement. Regulates the hormones and assists with hair
Guess its time you make your own products
Can I use grease on 3c hair?
I tried grease last year after seing one of your video.. My main problem with it is that it is a nightmare to wash out. I had to do like 3 wash. Now I use aryuvedic oil and an hibiscus and fenugrec water spray and my hair are soft and growing.
Use a clarifying shampoo.
That means you were using too much. Regular shampoo should get it out. If you need clarifying shampoo you used too much.
I've missed your videos!😃also, i thoroughly enjoyed your Peru cover on Instagram 💙. May we please have a "how to get over a breakup" video because brooo😭😭
LOADING
Me starring at her thinking how greasy and pretty she is. Then her saying she’s obsessed with grease makes me giggle.
After watching this video I jus realized I actually do used grease and i don't care because it's not doing any damage to my hair. The name of my two greases are tea tree oil and jojoba oil, the ones that comes in the jar and since I have low porosity jojoba oil is what I always hear they talk about for the lows and tea trees for the itch.
I put cream, oil, natures blessings, and then Vaseline. I’m thinking about just putting vaseline only on my ends.
Yes ur ends will live u
Blue Magic is a black owned company.
It is not
@Yasmina WOW I still love blue magic products. If we can eat at restaurants that's not black owned why stop using hair products just because they're not black owned? Just saying.
@@chocolateme7731 Blue magic used to be black owned but they sold a long time ago.
I agree if we can eat at non black owned restaurants then using non black owned products shouldn’t make a difference. Plus what most don’t realize is when they say to only buy black owned but they buy their products from target or Walmart or Ulta which are all non black owned companies. Those companies already bought those products so buying them from those companies they are just supporting non black businesses while only using black created products. If they are not buying everything directly from the black owned business via online purchase from companies website then they aren’t actually buying black. It’s madness lol!
If it works then it works, regardless 🙂
@@ladyt6725 absolutely👍
I use grease on my hair not scalp. Just about to make a new batch for myself and my sister.
What do you put in it?
Do you use a leave in under your grease? And if so what kinda?
Yes always. As long as it's a Water based leave in or moisturizer your good
I suggest check out fast hair growth fortified shampoo.
Will vaseline help your hair grow instead of hair grease or will it give.you sores in your scalp or is vaseline good to help your hair from getting sores in your scalp ?
She Sais in another commenti that's totally fine for Ur SCALP(except if u produce a lot of sebum on Ur scalp)
BECAUSE YOU APPLIED HAIR GREASE IS NO REASON FOR IT TO FALL OUT .....STRESS, SICKNESS, MEDICATION, GLUE, ETC....MAYBE!!
