Thank you for another great video. Would you recommend this for someone with seborrheic dermatitis who is really sensitive to oils?
Hiya! I sure would! Cade oil is one of the more common ingredients I use in my ointments for treating scaly conditions, so it's definitely worth trying. If you are unsure how your scalp would react to using oils, then I would suggest you add the cade essential oil directly to the clay mask and use it that way, instead of applying the oil mixture first? If you are mixing it with the mask, add a couple more drops though so its effectiveness isn't drowned out by the concentration of the clay. I'd say about 10-12 drops instead of just 7.
Will you please let me know how it goes? 💛
Afope Atoyebi Thank you 🙂
@@olubukola44 My pleasure! 🙏
I was about to ask this exact question
@@AfopeAtoyebi jojoba is not a penetrating oil right so how can it go into the follicle?
The way she says clays makes me feel so calm, actually her whole voice makes me feel calm
The moment... When you live in a remote hippie village in egypt, really need a detox, find this video and think you have to probably wait until you’re back in europe to get all this ingredients for really expensive somewhere online... and then you try the nature shop up the street literally 50m away and find EVERYTHING you need there for about 20€ total... then you know you are in the right place! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!!
I know this is probably veryyyyy late but in Egypt and Morocco you can find ghasoul or Rassoul clay which is an amazing detox for the scalp + skin
Super jealous in an encouraging me way
Girl, you are the truth!! I feel like I just left organic chemistry! I have learned a lot and understanding more about caring for my natural hair. Thank you!!
You’re so welcome girl! Thank YOU! 🥰☺️
Thank you so much. My hair has been breaking for months...I detoxed using this recipe and the breaking stopped immediately...thank God..I thought I was gonna go bald.
The positive energy that radiates off you is absolutely amazing and just feels so genuine! The positivity is so strong and abundant that it seems like it has seeped into the video and it transfered through my screen.
You just have the greatest, smartest, detailed and informative videos. Imma save this one for the next time I do a clay mask. Also, your home looks so bright and warm and cheery. I love it💚
I love how you explain the science behind the ingredients without making it super complicated. It's easy to follow. Thank you! :)
You are my saviour I have always wanted to follow someone like you because I dont know what im doing. Also as a student midwife thank you for showing appreciation at the begining of this video that was so kind ❤

It isn't Quarantine right now, but how you gave blessings to everybody at the beginning of the video gives me regrets for not watching this earlier, thank you so much!
Wow! This was very informative. It reminds me of my chemistry class. I like how much varieties of information you provided!
Omg so happy I found your channel! Can't wait to follow along. ☺️

It’s very interesting that bentonite clay is beneficial. Where I grew up, lots of the ground was bentonite. As a kid we would go outside after it rained and make sculptures.
sis i loved the information but i COULDNT STOP LOOKING AT YOUR SMILE YOUR SKIN YOUR HAIR!!!! you’re so so pretty 🥺🤍
I feel like I’m in a chemistry class with all this charge talk! Love it, thanks for the great video!!! :))))

Wow this is exactly what I needed
Clays are the truth👏👏👏 new subbie 😍
I love informative influencers thank you
I used to have so long, thick, silky smooth, shiny and soft hair before, I really loved my hair and everybody would compliment me until one day my hair turned into my worst nightmare due to excessive hairloss,it's been 4 months since my hairloss started and my hair are ruined, I even lost hopes and was soo insecure about my hair but now I am trying to revive my hair and I would definitely succeed!! I thought of starting with my scalp first that's why I searched for such kind of video and I immediately subscribed you!!
Would share my journey with you all once I get all of these products and try this out as my first step
Any luck? Please share what didn’t or did help? Crying as I lose more hair every day
Yo! I am so grateful for this!!!! Thank you! Thank you.
I just want to thank you for this video. I have locs and they just started thinning with my scalp itching and sore. I would wash my hair and nothing that wouldn’t help. I came across ur video because I knew I needed to detox my scalp just didnt want to use the acv, baking soda method. I use the bentonite and kaolin clay. And boom! My scalp feels so much better. Thanks again
I literally need you or someone like you in my area. This was super supportive. thanks
wow! Super informative! Thank you!
I came here for scalp content… but stayed because of the accent! I love your voice
Thank you! I had a really itchy scalp for a couple of weeks and had no idea what to do so I just stopped doing my hair. I'm so glad I know how to solve the problem next time.
Yaaaaay 🥰🥰🙏🏽🙏🏽
My scalp has been itching for the past 2 weeks and im confused as well. I dont have money for clay but im hoping simplifying my routine will help😩
You can make a mix of cucumber and tomato juice, and use it on your scalp from 30 mins to 1 hour before you wash your hair. You can also use a gentle sugar or salt scrub to get rid of any gunk on the scalp.
Can these ingredients be premixed and stored for later? If so, how long can you package and store it for and how do you store it?
Love this content!! I just did an ACV rinse a couple days ago. I’ve never done one before 😳. I feel my hair is dry but I’m working on moisturizing it well. But I do feel such a difference in my scalp, and considering I should be doing this about once a month, I can’t wait to see how this affects the health of my hair/scalp!
Yeah ACV is anti inflammatory so it can be really great for the scalp especially. Also, fun fact, your scalp's pH is slightly acidic (as is ACV when mixed with some water), so it's a great way to "restore factory settings".
So useful! Thanks so much!!!
lol just found you and immediately subscribed before you could suggest it in the video. Love the energy.
This is so helpful 🥰
This was great! I've always heard you just need to add acv to the clay, no water. I'm going to try your mix and note the diffrence. Thanks for the tip about *distilled* water! BTW I assume it's 5 drops of cade oil but you didn't say for sure.
Thanks this was very helpful!
Very informative. Thank you!
Soo much information I had no idea about by the way I love your tight curls sooo beautiful love it!!!! 🙌🏼😻🙌🏼❤️
Again, brilliant work! I am wondering whether extra clay wash I made can be frozen, and also whether aloe vera can be substituted for water in the clay wash recipe. I found an aloe vera juice infused with 10 percent honey at an Indian market. Thanks again!!!
Hi. I am a new subscriber. Your video was very informative. I learned a lot.
Thank you so much! I’m type 2c hair started getting supper itchy scalp after straightening and dry shampoo 2Xs in one week. I had ordered the ingredients a while back and just got the urgency to do it last night after being SO uncomfortable. LET ME TELL
YOU: That cold clay feeling on my scalp was soooooooo soothing! I finished it late at night and followed it woth a strengthening treatment mask that I left on overnight. Finishing styling now 💞 sooo happy and relieved! Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing. Your idea has enlighten my world : P
Your videos are awesome and helped me find some products for my low porosity hair. I just wanted to ask, do we have to use all those clays to detox the scalp? or are we able to use just the water and ACV?
Thanks for sharing this information... you are so smart
I use naissance oils and essential oils too! Glad to know that they’re decent, especially if you’re using them!
I’m going to book a face to face with you soon, are you doing F2F anytime soon? 💚
Can you do a video on how to manage psoriasis pls?
You are the best! I miss you! When are you going to start uploading new videos?
I really needed these tips💃🏽💃🏽....thanks🙏🏽
My pleasure 🥰 Thank you so much for watching 🙏🏽
Afope please any idea where I buy the clay in Lagos?
I haven’t personally bought some in Lagos before, but I did find this website: organic.ng/product/bentinote-clay/
They sell it by weight from 200g for N2k - 10kg for N30k. You shouldn’t need more than 500g-1kg though. And apparently they do free shipping to anywhere in Lagos! Of course, Thai might be tricky during lockdown but contact them anyways.
Can you please let me know if your experience with them is good, so I can know whether to recommend them to other people who ask?
Afope oh thanks again. Once I get mine will give you a feedback then.
@@julimuna8049 I ordered mine off jumia
i know this is an old video but i really hope you see this. i know you said we should avoid putting anything on our scalp but what about hair tonics? can you please make a video to discuss about good ingredients for hair tonics?
Hey Afope! I have always been dealing with itchy scalp even after a detox. I always put my hair in a protective style so I was wondering, can I apply sulfur 8 to my scalp? And also what do you think about sulfur 8 Nd please do a video in grease!
My personal fave is rhassoul clay💕
Hi! Will this recipe still work decently without the kaolin clay?
Just watched your video, very informative!! I had a question though... you mentioned to maintain a detoxified scalp, we shouldn't add anything but shampoos to our scalps, not even oils. How do we keep our hair and scalps moisturized?
Love your video!! Something that I have noticed on Tik Tok mainly is that people are using bentonite clay masks as cleansers once a week. They are also claiming that it can help define your curls for low porosity hair. I have done some research on bentonite clay and notice that it has a really basic pH. And from my understanding, basic ingredients have the potential to blow open your cuticles. Basically, my question is how do you know when your bentonite clay is helpful vs harmful to your hair.
Adding ACV or even aloe vera which have an acidic ph, brings down the ph of bentonite clay
Hi, please do I need to wash my hair before using the clay mask? Note: I have a lot of product build-up in my hair at the moment.
Hi Afope! When should this detox be done (before shampooing, after shampooing, etc)?
Thank you so much! You are so beautiful btw 💜
Well, she has my vote and subscription From the beginning
Due to her professionalism.
Now I’m actually watching the rest of the video.
If I could only give her more subscriptions 🤔👍
Do you want the long or short answer 🙌👌👌 nice video 👌💜 I'll try this out💟
If it helps put the water in the bowl first and then use a fine mesh strainer and sift the clay in little bit by little bit that gets rid of lumps because there won't be any when you're stirring it in a little bit by little bit and then he loves us actually in the strainer can be smushed out before it hits the water.
How about people that need to oil their scalps to prevent itching? Is it okay to use natural oil mixtures on the head?
How long do you leave the clay on your hair and skin? How long can you keep the mixture if I keep it in a sealed container? How often would you recommend this treatment be done to your hair and face?
Thank You this video is really helpful. Are you using Organic Ingredients? I try to choose them whenever available, especially when the purpose is to remove toxins. Do you feel this is necessary?
Thank you!
This is my HG scalp detox remedy now. My scalp has never felt cleaner. I have a question though. How long can I store the excess? Should I refrigerate it? My hair is bleached from mid-length to the ends, so I only apply it to the scalp. I didn't think it through and ended up making too much, and there's way too much left to just throw away.
Thank You for that. I work in healthcare❤❤
Okay, I like how my hair reacted afterwards.... but it didn't work as well for me during. My clay mixture was so tough, I even added double the amount of water in the end. Are some brands of both theses clay different? Maybe my clay was old?
Can I do the first recipe without the kaolin clay? I have everything else to do this recipe except for that and I can’t seem to find any that I don’t have to order online. Thank you!!!
I think I’ll try this again. My hair used to respond really well to clay washes. I don’t know what happened but all of a sudden my hair would be wrecked after using clay. It would take a few washes to fix it. I’m not sure what changed.
Hello ! So gratfull for all your videos, learnt so much about hair and the best way to take care of it. You 've got a new fan from Morocco.☺️
I have two questions
I have psoriasis can i use the oil and clay treatement?
I wear hijab as a Muslim how can i take more care of my hair?
What if I use oils on my scalp for my scalp massage to stimulate hair growth? I do detox my hair once a month, and a hydrating mask once a week... ofc I’ve been using natural products for 1,5 year
Hi! Do we have to put the oils first & then the clay, or can we skip the first step ?
Hello. I wanted to get your opinion on spraying your scalp with water, tea, aloe vera juice... Etc, instead of oil/grease. Especially in between wash days. | Loving your content, I've been using clay washes as my go-to for when I'm feeling lazy. Would you recommend kaolin over bentonite or Rhassoul? If so, why? I've ever used Kaolin, but I've been interested in trying it for a while? (sorry for the long comment🙊)
Hi Oyinda!! I think water and aloe juice should be fine, mainly because of its acidic pH that matches that of the scalp. But use very sparingly. I'd say a scalp rinse ACV or aloe one a week after your wash days should suffice. Also I think last week 's video answers your quezzie about the clays, right?
Does low ferritin cause hair miniaturization ?
Thank you for this. Can I use these on my 11 year old daughter's hair?
Does water filter (for shower head) work? Some people said it's not enough time for the water to soften
Love the video. I have been detoxing my scalp for some months now and I love it. I detox by using brown sugar mix with some oils. You are the first I came across with using clay. . Thank you for this info. Very informative. I'm curious about you look on using brown sugar for detoxing?
So when using the hair mask... do you apply it directly on a dry scalp or wet ? I never done a hair mask before so I’m practically new to it lol.
thank you so much omg
Can I re-use it if I freeze it or can I keep in in the fridge? If yes, how much time?
Thanks 🙌🏾
Yes Ma'am how many drops of Juniper did you add? 7 drops, ... more or less? Please and Thank You....
Thanks for this. Your face is so smooth
Is breastfeeding or Levothyroxine a contraindications for cade oil? HS doctors will always say to avoid what they don't know about
Hello,
Would you recommend doing this detox method on someone who has locs? My husband has low porosity hair and is prone to build up. His scalp becomes very itchy and always seems to have dandruff that seems moist.
As always, thank you for your expertise!
This should work as its stripping the external film on the hsirs while the oil is nourishing the scalp. In the shower the hair will be washed then opened and receptive to accepting moisture internally.
I have dyed blue hair, will that pull the colour from my hair?
Thank you for this was just thinking I need a detox cause my scalp has been doing bits! Quick question I just bought some Shakakai and Aritha powders to use as "cleansers" or shampoos can they work in the same way as Bentonite? Or do they work more as your "everyday" shampoos and then use bentonite to detox like once a month?
💛Shakakai and Aritha are good natural cleansers, but they're not detoxers to my knowledge. I would definitely say the latter.
Is there than everyday oil mixture you recommend for dry and itchy scalp
Does this mask replace using a shampoo? Or would I apply it after shampooing? Xx
Hi, I wanted to know if there are other types of clay to substitute for bentonite. Here in France it isn't a very popular clay. The most popular one you can find is green clay in bulk, and there are other ones like kaolin and I think pink clay and yellow clay... but green clay is the most popular. I was also wondering if charcoal would have any benefits in the mixture or not?
also thank you I love your videos! 😘
How long should we leave the detox treatment on for?
Does the clay deposit calcium in the hair?
