You are! You and your hair are awesome! Mee and MY hair is awesome!All our hair and selves here are AWESOME! Careful now, its a power that goes right to your head....
Last time I grew my hair out was to try out the man bun undercut. It was an easy goal since it didn't require that much commitment to grow to the "bun length". I always kept my hair short, so it was intriguing to see what would happen. I didn't know about proper hair care though, so I washed my hair every day, conditioned it too and used unnecessary products to style it. When I reached that "bun length", I was losing hair like crazy. One pass though it with a comb and there was tons of hair, and I also noticed it started thinking on my head too. So I cut it with size 1 again. Not long after I started wondering what long hair would be like again, so I started researching, and your videos helped me a lot. I started washing twice a week, sometimes once (depends on how dirty it gets because of gym, job etc.), started using higher quality shampoo, conditioner and coconut oil. So far I'm 5 months in and it looks so much better than last time (also because I left out the undercut, so far I'm letting it all grow), I see much less hair in my combs and it feels good too. So I just wanted to say thank you, your videos motivated me to keep with it and dedicate some time to learn about myself and my hair.
I am in the same boat bro, growing a full man bun now and I am starting to take my hair care serious now as I am losing hair a lot I am noticing it to much, but I am struggling with how much I should shampoo and conditioner, I shampoo everyday I just don’t know what to do how often I should do it
@@djswirleyI have a similar issue with hair falling out. Perhaps it looks like you're losing more hair because said hair is longer so when bunching it, it forms a bigger ball than if you bunched the same number of hair's cut short. But as an overthinker, I know the anxiety of seeing the amount of hair in my brush after a single pass through 😅
@@kingscy9 haha yeah bro I actually off my long hair about 6 months ago but I am getting a hair transplant next year so after that I’ll get my long hair again
i like that u actually care about recommending something . most people i've heard have zero interest in your hair and just want to recommend something that worked for their hair. kudos keep it up!
The awkward stage is easy , the biggest struggle is probably convincing my family that scrubbing ur head like a mad man is actually bad for you and that I'm not dirty
yes. im so glad i learned how to dry my hair properly my frizz decreased to almost nothingness. Awkward stage sucks if you're growing your sides out. I just plop some gel on my wet sides and comb them back and it looks pretty decent. My back tho just does not want to lay flat no matter what i do.
Lol ! Scrubbing like a madman .. when my brother and I were kids our grandmother shampooed our hair at the kitchen sink and scrubbed our scalps practically raw ! 2 boys Squeaky Clean Red scalps .. and one hair salon I went to same thing .. some old lady older than my grandmother gave me a shampoo I never forgot between her busty chest hanging in my face , using the hose like a fire hose , turning , lifting pushing scrubbing and telling me to keep my head back ..I think I still have whiplash .
Thanks Travis. I am Filipino and as you probably know many Asians' hair grows straight out, does not lay when under an inch and is almost like horse hair or very similar to a shoe brush. Not complaining (because I have a full head of hair at 55), but not really sure what a realistic expectation should be as I'm going/growing through this COVID period. My hair hasn't been this long since before I joined the US Army in 1983. I'm still in that awkward-growth-length phase. ty
I have fairly long hair with a wavy texture and curly on the back. My hair is most comparable to Rambo's from the 2nd film (length as well). I literally just use head and shoulders 2 in 1. I am commenting this before watching the video, lets see what ive been doing wrong after ive watched it..
After watching the video, due to my unusual combination of hair types, Im not sure if what im doing is wrong or right. The think I am unsure about is that I air dry it. Im not sure if its bad or good for my hair
I've been using head and shoulders for YEARSSSS because I have always had problems with a dry itchy scalp and it was the only thing I could find that would relieve the itch, but now I'm growing out my hair I'm really beginning to notice just how dry my hair is yikes
@@Yorkie111 yeah, I think head and shoulders will be fine for you to continue using, just apply conditioner too. My head and shoulders I use is 2 in 1, shampoo and conditioner, but if the condition in yours isnt doing any good, try additional conditioner with it
This is the first time I've ever stopped the video to buy a product in the middle of its sponsor segment. It's a little pricey, but I'm really excited to try it out!
So, I used to wash my hair pretty much everyday for my entire life (I'm now 27) because nobody ever told me that that is not how you're supposed to wash when you're in the shower. I used to have nice, smooth, pretty straight hair which would fall down the sides of my head. Now, however, my hair is extremely frizzy, especially in humid conditions. I reckon I have type 2c low-porosity hair from the information I've gathered. Now, I started growing out my hair almost a year ago and I have about 7 inches worth of hair on my head, wavy towards the roots and more curly towards the ends. Until recently I never really paid much attention to hair care, but I figured maybe I can ake it easier to manage if I use the right products and the right routine. At the moment, after doing a fair bit of research and some converesations with hairdresser's, I currently shampoo once a week, usually in the evening after some kind of sport activity. I use conditioner in the shower every day, either pureology for damaged hair or l'oreal coconut extraordinary oil mask. I dab my hair a bit and add in a home made salt spray, then towel dry my hair a bit paying attention to not scrub, and just dab and scrunch. Then I add a smidge of 100% natural coconut oil from the supermarket and use my fingers to spread through from root to end. Sometimes I use a boar bristle brush but I've heard it may damage my hair, especially when damp. Then I just let it air dry. I think I'm getting fairly decent results but still my hair tends to kind of just sit there and not fall down the sides, and I reckon I could still improve y routine somewhat. Any tips?
@@djswirleydude, pls don’t was your hair with shampoo with every day, that’s gonna do some serious damage. Washing every day with conditioner is better than every day with shampoo, even though I don’t recommend either. Shampoo 1-2 times a week and condition 2-4 times a week.
It has been one year for me since my last cut! Thanks for these videos, Trav! The knowledge you provide is very beneficial. God bless from West Virginia!
I started growing my hair due to quarantine and just got my first maintenance cut (about 4.5 months of growth) I had them only clean up the sides and was shocked at that most of the growth was on the sides, I can't wait until November when I've had another 4 months of growth now that I have the plan and the maintenance trim.
Great video, by the way! My hair is up to 14 inches now and I wash three times a week because I work in an industrial setting and the fine oil mist NEEDS to be gone asap
This is awesome. So easy to over-complicate hair-care with even 1 uncommon option (like dyeing/lightening - way too many steps in addition to regular ones). And the more you damage or customize your hair, that much harder it gets to manage it. Here's some useful general hair-care information, in addition to this video's: - Straight/wavy: coconut oil is awesome, and generally cheap. You can have a shampoo, conditioner, and hair mask with it (untested). 3 times the protection (giggity). You can even cook with it (assuming it's coconut oil ONLY, not a hair-care product with it included)! - Any type: wash less often (as reviewed in this video). Regardless of hair type, don't make any extreme/sudden changes (except healthy ones, like better ingredients), to allow your body to adjust to them. - Any type: still want to shower everyday, but not ruin your hair? Use some sort of shower cap. Not sure, but there are specific hairsprays/products for those who sweat/produce too much scalp/hair oil - which you could use under the shower cap (as per instructions). - Fine/high-porosity: use coconut oil-based leave-in conditioner (as per bottle's and video's instructions). - Use a silk or silk-like pillowcase. It helps keep hair shaped smoothly and optimal. They're cheap on Amazon.
Can you please make a playlist which contains videos in order like 1. What to do before going to shampoo and condition? 2. How to shampoo and condition hair? 3. How to dry your hair or style your hair after shower? 4. How to maintain it every night and every morning until next session of shampoo and condition? Thanks In advance.
Hey , I really like your videos and find them really helpful for my current situation :) Could you do one video about hair brushing ? When it’s more necessary and when not? Because I have fine hair for example and by brushing the hair I get the feeling that they get more greasy and that I lose more hair. For which hit types it’s better to brush more/less often? Would be really helpful and interesting to know , love your content 👍🏻
I've been doing it all wrong it seems. I have oily/combination, thin, fine hair & not sure about going 2 or 3 days without washing it. But, I'm going to try this weekend and use the techniques I just learned. I haven't had my hair cut in 15 or 16 months due to Covid. Going next weekend to get it shaped up without real length taken off. The PDF is great BTW. Thanks for the video.
I busted up, at the Voice Changer!!! I ❤️ it! Your video, about Hair Type, that's the One, that helped me determine how to care for mine. It's my Ends, from using a Blow Dryer for years! I just placed my Order!
Trav I haven't seen you talk about different brands of conditioner on your channel. I seem to use so much, so I'm using cheap stuff (Dove). Wondering what you recommend. I have very similar hair to you, just not that long (yet!) Please do a video about conditioner types/ingredients/brands!
I like to shampoo twice a week. On Monday I use Biolage then on Friday I use tea tree shampoo. After showering I put coconut oil. Then in the morning I put leave-conditioner for during the day.
I like fresh smelling hair. I can't imagine waiting 2 or 3 days to wash it. I also don't want to drag dirt and pollen and smells my hair absorbs and oil onto my pillow. That's a great way to aggrevate your allergies and any skin conditions - especially acne and blackheads. Also, most partners will appreciate a daily wash and clean smelling hair. This no wash thing seems to be a weird fad. My hair is semi coarse and wavy and oily at the scalp. I use a gentle shampoo. I massage the shampoo into the scalp to clean and stimulate it but I stay away from the ends and just let the shampoo rinse out through them. Then i put a natural conditioner with coconut and other oils on the ends and allow it to penetrate for a minute before rinsing. It seems to work for me. And I get zero tangles and no breaking. I also sometimes rinse with cold water. It's good for your skin too. This guy has fine hair so he has to baby it. His routine apparently works for him since his hair always looks nice and he clearly works hard at it. And it helps to be handsome. Lol It's important to tune your hair care routine to your hair and scalp and lifestyle and health considerations (and significant other). There's no one size fits all. I hate to say it, but the best thing to do across the board is stay away from the blow dryer. It damages your hair at any setting except cold and then what's the point. I let mine air dry. Then just as it's almost dry, i gently brush it against the style. Then 10-15 minutes later gradually brush it back into my final style. That gives it volume and shape. It's easy. It just takes an hour.
i think most of the people that say don’t shampoo everyday still use a cowashing conditioner daily and throughly clean and rinse the hair with cold water. the conditioner and hair oil sprays make the hair smell nice
I just started to follow you about half a year ago, and WOAW! You are the best! Already learn so much from you! I'm growing out my hair as well, haven't had long hair since I was 12! 🙈 I have tried for many years, but doing to people's comments and some conservative parents it never happened.. But doing to your videos I'm on my way! Almost long enough to make my first small man bun! Keep up the great work all the way from Denmark! 🇩🇰
I stopped the video to comment. English is not my mother language and when it comes you to suggest items to put on our hair and to put their picture on the right side, that just confuses my mind. (Do not misunderstand my intention on speaking directly. I am trying to be simple en efficient in my comment) Also in some of your videos I heard you saying something like “use no products and see the best result” which is the main ideology of my hair growing in 3 years. When I first hear that from you and saw your amazing researches in your videos that was the day I told myself that we men are actually good people in our hearts. What I am trying to tell is that I support scientific researches but I am also a true lover of natural beauty. I would love to see more videos about growing hair in the most clean and natural way and supported by efficient scientific researches. I will now continue watching ty Trav.
Use a shower filter too like Sprite or Aqua Bliss from Amazon.. they remove excess chlorine and chemicals in your water, they are better for your skin too.
Thank you for this video. I have a very similar type of hair as you and i've been strugling for years to find the right products for my hair. Love these videos. 👍
When you say wash 2-3 times a week do you mean with just shampoo and conditioner but other days just water and no products or on the other days don’t even water wash?
He made a video that water also damges your hair... So you must not wash or rinse your hair with water. Only wash it if you are gonna apply the shampoo and conditioner
I have hair down to the middle of back (used to be down to my ass) and I have been using Shea Moisture Restore and Repair Shampoo and Conditioner since 2019. I recently changed to Pete and Pedro's volumizing shampoo and Peppermint Shampoo and conditiioner. Both have made my hair better and it's a lot softer! I also have tried their other products but this is the one that definitely works for me
Trav whats your thoughts on scalp brushes? Do you use them as part of your hair wash routine? Or would you only use one for short to medium hair and the longer it gets just stick to fingers/hands?
Man your videos have been a lifesaver. Thank you so much for all the research and help you provide the community. Any ideas for a good shampoo for more oily hair?
Ive had long hair since covid started and was wondering why it seems like im losong so much hair when i brush and wash. I usally only wash it one or twice a weeks because of all the frizz. I bought some formulate, all in one milk oil and a b&b curling cream. I have very similar hair type to yours so finger crossed this fixes all the issues ive been having.
Hello, Trav. I'm 25y old female. I ve highly porous, dry, thin, brittle, wavy hair. My scalp is very dry as well and I ve tiny-particle dandruff. I used to color my hair as well, since I have premature graying (14y). For two years I performed massaging my scalp with fingertips every day, shampooing and conditioning with ogx products, applying castor oil and black seed oil masks. After such a routine, my hair quality was tolerable and I was able to comb my hair. But then, I moved to another country and stopped performing all of this. I had to cut my hair very short. Why is it so difficult to get long healthy hair? Its so time and money consuming to get normal hair.
Travis, you're full of great information. Thank you. Question: in your opinion is it ok to put a little bit of conditioner (a good hydrating one) in your dry hair, style it as though it were product? It makes my hair silky and compliant but I don't want to inadvertently trash my hair.
@@TravWhiteStyle hmmm no, come to think of it. I have leave in stuff but conditioner feels so nice and soft. Plus I have this notion that if I just condition for a looong, long time, it's good for me -right? Lol
Only shampooing 2 to 3 times a week is no problem when your not sweating 8 to 10 hours out of the day, I had to start shampooing much more often when I started working at my normal job again having to exposing my hair to the elements a good portion of the day.
Just downloaded formulate and bought my set from your link thanks to you. I have long hair that I grew for about 2 years now and I have had trouble getting my hair balanced and always ends up frizzy which I hate.
I have a question about applying coconut oil before shampooing: Do I need to apply it right before the wash or is it possible to do it like 6 hours before and then wash it? Thanks very much for the video :)
I am West Asian and my hair starts to get oily the night after washing my hair, and on the second day it looks like my hair is clumping together. It smells like oil too, drives me nuts.
I have grown my hair for 2.5 years, in that time I've had no cuts and wash it about once every 10 days. I'm impeccably clean, I used to wash my hair at least alternate days when it was short, but my hair now stays clean and oil free for days. Even on the day I wash it it isn't greasy.
I have a very hard time not to wash my hair everyday. Physical job (not in dirt or something, but sweaty), gym, Minoxidil... I tend to geht oily hair somewhat fast and this seems or at least looks pronounced since I grew my hair out...
Hi Trav! Can you make a video about ingredients in conditioner since most of your videos talk about shampoo😀 Is it okay to use a drugstore conditioner with a non sulfate shampoo? (I have a high porosity hair) Thanks!!
I'm an every day washer, basically because I sweat a lot. I have type 1 and 2a, fine, dense, with high porosity, oily scalp and dry ends. How do I keep my hair fresh and smelling good, on the days I don't wash? And how do I keep it from getting all over the place while sleeping (I twist and turn a lot).
Is getting hair wet in the shower, but not using shampoo and conditioner still considered a wash? Trying to figure out if just getting it wet could strip the oils.
So I have a question here. On days where you're not washing your hair, do you use conditioner or are you not supposed to do anything at all with it in the shower?
I am currently using the Old spice thickening shampoo/ conditioner combo lol... Any feedback if it’s good or if there’s a better thickening combo out there ??
My biggest problem with growing my hair is that it bunches up like I'm a mix of 2 b and 3a and I'm coming from a high fade so I know its not gunna grow evenly but I hope these videos will help
Man this company is so dope! I have such a hard time finding shampoos that fit me, but unfortunately i live in canada and they don't ship out the US, i'm pissed...
How should I dry my hair without losing a lot of it after a shower? And also in one of your previous videos you said that brushing your hair when it’s wet can make you lose more hair but I kind of need to do that to get the look I want
Hey trav im from venezuela! The gifaway apply outside US ? Btw thanks for making these videos i have long hair and thanks to you i can say.. i have no longer freezy hair! But im still have mixed hair so is a pain in the ass (sorry if my english is not correct im still learning) :D
Hiiii!!! I'm just starting my long hair journey and i just past "awkward stage". My hair shreds and kinda dry. Can i use castor for pre or post wash? Thanksss!!!
What if I choose to condition my hair on the days I wash it . Meaning conditioning my hair every other day .I'm I'm thinking about using sulfate free shampoo once a week . Does that sound cool ?
I have very thick hair and I have time to use my hair straightener. I have to it kills my hair so I need a product that will put nutrients in my hair but also help. Grow it and not kill it. No I do use cooking coconut oil on my hair. Wants to twice a week and I leave it in for 4 hours and then I wash my hair out. What should I use to make it better
Everybody talking about the awkward stage.What that even mean.I hadn't experienced nothing like awkward while'st growing out my hair.I just let it grow.
Hey Trav, have you looked into Prose at all? They do something very similar to Formulate. I've been using Prose for the last 2 months or so and I like it but I feel as though it's not doing as much as it could be for my 3A hair.

I busted up, at the Voice Changer!!! I ❤️ it! Your video, about Hair Type, that's the One, that helped me determine how to care for mine. It's my Ends, from using a Blow Dryer for years! I just placed my Order!
Hey Trav, what is the difference between hydration and moisturizing shampoo? and which is better for dry scalp? Will hydration help at all?
Trav I haven't seen you talk about different brands of conditioner on your channel. I seem to use so much, so I'm using cheap stuff (Dove). Wondering what you recommend. I have very similar hair to you, just not that long (yet!) Please do a video about conditioner types/ingredients/brands!
I like to shampoo twice a week. On Monday I use Biolage then on Friday I use tea tree shampoo. After showering I put coconut oil. Then in the morning I put leave-conditioner for during the day.
I like fresh smelling hair. I can't imagine waiting 2 or 3 days to wash it. I also don't want to drag dirt and pollen and smells my hair absorbs and oil onto my pillow. That's a great way to aggrevate your allergies and any skin conditions - especially acne and blackheads. Also, most partners will appreciate a daily wash and clean smelling hair. This no wash thing seems to be a weird fad.
My hair is semi coarse and wavy and oily at the scalp. I use a gentle shampoo. I massage the shampoo into the scalp to clean and stimulate it but I stay away from the ends and just let the shampoo rinse out through them. Then i put a natural conditioner with coconut and other oils on the ends and allow it to penetrate for a minute before rinsing. It seems to work for me. And I get zero tangles and no breaking. I also sometimes rinse with cold water. It's good for your skin too.
This guy has fine hair so he has to baby it. His routine apparently works for him since his hair always looks nice and he clearly works hard at it. And it helps to be handsome. Lol It's important to tune your hair care routine to your hair and scalp and lifestyle and health considerations (and significant other). There's no one size fits all.
I hate to say it, but the best thing to do across the board is stay away from the blow dryer. It damages your hair at any setting except cold and then what's the point. I let mine air dry. Then just as it's almost dry, i gently brush it against the style. Then 10-15 minutes later gradually brush it back into my final style. That gives it volume and shape. It's easy. It just takes an hour.
i think most of the people that say don’t shampoo everyday still use a cowashing conditioner daily and throughly clean and rinse the hair with cold water. the conditioner and hair oil sprays make the hair smell nice
Keep it going bro, you're gonna be huge!
I just started to follow you about half a year ago, and WOAW! You are the best! Already learn so much from you! I'm growing out my hair as well, haven't had long hair since I was 12! 🙈 I have tried for many years, but doing to people's comments and some conservative parents it never happened.. But doing to your videos I'm on my way! Almost long enough to make my first small man bun! Keep up the great work all the way from Denmark! 🇩🇰
Thanks for introducing me to Formulate. I'm excited to give it a try. I think the customization option (especially the scent) is pretty amazing.
Oh daaaaaaang, learning about the blow drier is a big game changer 😳
can you make a video on "How to do keratin treatment at home" ?
I stopped the video to comment. English is not my mother language and when it comes you to suggest items to put on our hair and to put their picture on the right side, that just confuses my mind. (Do not misunderstand my intention on speaking directly. I am trying to be simple en efficient in my comment)
Also in some of your videos I heard you saying something like “use no products and see the best result” which is the main ideology of my hair growing in 3 years. When I first hear that from you and saw your amazing researches in your videos that was the day I told myself that we men are actually good people in our hearts. What I am trying to tell is that I support scientific researches but I am also a true lover of natural beauty. I would love to see more videos about growing hair in the most clean and natural way and supported by efficient scientific researches. I will now continue watching ty Trav.
Use a shower filter too like Sprite or Aqua Bliss from Amazon.. they remove excess chlorine and chemicals in your water, they are better for your skin too.
Trav that PDF about hair types is awesome.
Thank you for this video. I have a very similar type of hair as you and i've been strugling for years to find the right products for my hair. Love these videos. 👍
Loved this video and the sponser. You are so genuine with us man. 💪💥
I get collagen and biotin shampoo ! It works great, it has added some much-needed volume !
When you say wash 2-3 times a week do you mean with just shampoo and conditioner but other days just water and no products or on the other days don’t even water wash?
He made a video that water also damges your hair... So you must not wash or rinse your hair with water. Only wash it if you are gonna apply the shampoo and conditioner
@@milfnaevis1480 that can’t be right surely !!! I need to wash everyday man wtf
I have hair down to the middle of back (used to be down to my ass) and I have been using Shea Moisture Restore and Repair Shampoo and Conditioner since 2019. I recently changed to Pete and Pedro's volumizing shampoo and Peppermint Shampoo and conditiioner. Both have made my hair better and it's a lot softer! I also have tried their other products but this is the one that definitely works for me
Trav whats your thoughts on scalp brushes? Do you use them as part of your hair wash routine? Or would you only use one for short to medium hair and the longer it gets just stick to fingers/hands?
I was gonna cut my hair but after coming across your channel I decided to keep the hair flowin
Man your videos have been a lifesaver. Thank you so much for all the research and help you provide the community. Any ideas for a good shampoo for more oily hair?
I shampoo once in less than 2 weeks. in between, I use fresh aloe vera and apply it on my hair every 3 or 4 days.
Ive had long hair since covid started and was wondering why it seems like im losong so much hair when i brush and wash. I usally only wash it one or twice a weeks because of all the frizz. I bought some formulate, all in one milk oil and a b&b curling cream. I have very similar hair type to yours so finger crossed this fixes all the issues ive been having.
Wow, ur videos are perfect!!! Congratulations! I’ve learned a lot by watching them!
Hello, Trav. I'm 25y old female. I ve highly porous, dry, thin, brittle, wavy hair. My scalp is very dry as well and I ve tiny-particle dandruff. I used to color my hair as well, since I have premature graying (14y). For two years I performed massaging my scalp with fingertips every day, shampooing and conditioning with ogx products, applying castor oil and black seed oil masks. After such a routine, my hair quality was tolerable and I was able to comb my hair. But then, I moved to another country and stopped performing all of this. I had to cut my hair very short. Why is it so difficult to get long healthy hair? Its so time and money consuming to get normal hair.
Travis, you're full of great information. Thank you. Question: in your opinion is it ok to put a little bit of conditioner (a good hydrating one) in your dry hair, style it as though it were product? It makes my hair silky and compliant but I don't want to inadvertently trash my hair.
Have you tried a lightweight leave in conditioner?
@@TravWhiteStyle hmmm no, come to think of it. I have leave in stuff but conditioner feels so nice and soft. Plus I have this notion that if I just condition for a looong, long time, it's good for me -right? Lol
Curly haired people can use a defuser attachment on the hairdryer to dry their hair.
I wish you went over combination hair types
Only shampooing 2 to 3 times a week is no problem when your not sweating 8 to 10 hours out of the day, I had to start shampooing much more often when I started working at my normal job again having to exposing my hair to the elements a good portion of the day.
Hey trav coule you please recommend me some book for the wholesome knowledge of hair?or maybe any source from where you got all these information
Awesome video! It answered all my questions, thank you so much Trav ^_^
Great video with a lot of info for every single hair type. Thank you!
Just downloaded formulate and bought my set from your link thanks to you. I have long hair that I grew for about 2 years now and I have had trouble getting my hair balanced and always ends up frizzy which I hate.
what's your opinion on formulate now you've used it?
I have a question about applying coconut oil before shampooing: Do I need to apply it right before the wash or is it possible to do it like 6 hours before and then wash it?
Thanks very much for the video :)
I usually apply 20-30 min before shampoo
Great vid as always. Also, yesterday's Q&A session on Facebook was very informative. Thanks for that. 🙏
My pleasure bro!
Hey man your video motivate me at ackward stage when I'm confused should I grow or not
I am West Asian and my hair starts to get oily the night after washing my hair, and on the second day it looks like my hair is clumping together. It smells like oil too, drives me nuts.
Same I’m Asian too and that’s my problem
Trav recommends a clarifying shampoo and luke-warm water for oilier hair.
This guy deserves more subscribers
I have grown my hair for 2.5 years, in that time I've had no cuts and wash it about once every 10 days. I'm impeccably clean, I used to wash my hair at least alternate days when it was short, but my hair now stays clean and oil free for days. Even on the day I wash it it isn't greasy.
god genes
I’m totally bald why am I watching this. Also you’re scary good looking. 👀
😂😂😂😂
I have a very hard time not to wash my hair everyday. Physical job (not in dirt or something, but sweaty), gym, Minoxidil... I tend to geht oily hair somewhat fast and this seems or at least looks pronounced since I grew my hair out...
Hi Trav!
Can you make a video about ingredients in conditioner since most of your videos talk about shampoo😀 Is it okay to use a drugstore conditioner with a non sulfate shampoo? (I have a high porosity hair)
Thanks!!
3:32 “3-4 week per wash, schedule.” Got it.
Pls make a video on how to remove hair products after keeping at the end of the day
I'm an every day washer, basically because I sweat a lot. I have type 1 and 2a, fine, dense, with high porosity, oily scalp and dry ends. How do I keep my hair fresh and smelling good, on the days I don't wash? And how do I keep it from getting all over the place while sleeping (I twist and turn a lot).
Is getting hair wet in the shower, but not using shampoo and conditioner still considered a wash? Trying to figure out if just getting it wet could strip the oils.
hey did u find the answer to your question cuz i have the same confusion
Hey man what do you think about a double cleanse so like you wash your hair 2 times with shampoo or isnt that necesarry?
So I have a question here. On days where you're not washing your hair, do you use conditioner or are you not supposed to do anything at all with it in the shower?
i have the same question did you find the answer to it?
@@nauman.3035 no i did not
Amazing video
You gained a subscriber👍
Can we use baby shampoo
I am currently using the Old spice thickening shampoo/ conditioner combo lol... Any feedback if it’s good or if there’s a better thickening combo out there ??
My biggest problem with growing my hair is that it bunches up like I'm a mix of 2 b and 3a and I'm coming from a high fade so I know its not gunna grow evenly but I hope these videos will help
Im italian so my hair is genetically greasy as hell and everyone tells me to just shampoo less, so hearing another solution is good to hear
I love how this popped up in my recommended right after I step out of the shower 😑
So if you have curly hair or a perm, I can air dry? How much water should I get out of my hair before letting it air dry?
Just bought the ogx biotin and collagen shampoo and conditioner, hope it helps, would you recommend, and thanks for the last reply
I'm about to get the buzzer out. This is too much I had a cow lick that ruined my day yesterday lol
Do you wash more when you use hair products like wax?
Do we put coconut oil in the hair only before a shower where we use shampoo or before every shower?
Thank you for the vids! Qq, on no wash days do you wear a shower cap and not wet it?
i have the same question did you find the answer to it?
I have completely damaged hair ..what should i do?
Man this company is so dope! I have such a hard time finding shampoos that fit me, but unfortunately i live in canada and they don't ship out the US, i'm pissed...
How should I dry my hair without losing a lot of it after a shower? And also in one of your previous videos you said that brushing your hair when it’s wet can make you lose more hair but I kind of need to do that to get the look I want
Mr. Putin, you don't have hair.
Trav, what kind of hair dryer should I look for if my hair is thinning?
Hey trav... I use baby shampooo... is it any good for oily hair?
on the days we dont wash your hair should we use a shower cap or still use water but just not shampoo and conditioner?
What if you go the gym every day, find after a work out my head gets irritated with sweat.
Hey trav im from venezuela! The gifaway apply outside US ? Btw thanks for making these videos i have long hair and thanks to you i can say.. i have no longer freezy hair! But im still have mixed hair so is a pain in the ass (sorry if my english is not correct im still learning) :D
Hiiii!!! I'm just starting my long hair journey and i just past "awkward stage". My hair shreds and kinda dry. Can i use castor for pre or post wash? Thanksss!!!
What if I choose to condition my hair on the days I wash it . Meaning conditioning my hair every other day .I'm I'm thinking about using sulfate free shampoo once a week . Does that sound cool ?
Can you please make a video on leave in conditioner?
Where does the sealant for high porosity hair come in (grapeseed oil, jojoba oil...)? After leave-in?
I have very thick hair and I have time to use my hair straightener. I have to it kills my hair so I need a product that will put nutrients in my hair but also help. Grow it and not kill it. No I do use cooking coconut oil on my hair. Wants to twice a week and I leave it in for 4 hours and then I wash my hair out. What should I use to make it better
Everybody talking about the awkward stage.What that even mean.I hadn't experienced nothing like awkward while'st growing out my hair.I just let it grow.
What’s your opinion on that brand function of beauty? Customized shampoo and conditioner
Hey Trav, have you looked into Prose at all? They do something very similar to Formulate. I've been using Prose for the last 2 months or so and I like it but I feel as though it's not doing as much as it could be for my 3A hair.
So what do you do the days you dont wash it? if it has that head smell ? perfume? oils? whaaaat!?
I color my hair with paul mitchell pm shines demi permanent color aswell.
