i dont know where people got the idea that shampoos are supposed to provide moisture lol thats why u condition and deep condition after.. you should shampoo at least 1-2x month..
Janiya Gowdy ......never said you shouldnt deep condition...
I’m also a cowash type of girl. I’m very minimalistic with my curly hair routine.
I cowash, condition and leave some in and go over with a good gel on wet hair. My hair last 3-4 days so like you I wash my hair more than once a week. I also don’t use oils or butters and I stick to 1 brand (Briogeo) and they’re a quality haircare brand with no bad ingredients.
If I desire a deeper clean, I’ll use their curl shampoo maybe once a season.
oh my gosh, bless you for including the disclaimer that shampooing may be beneficial for some because that made me feel so relieved. I was starting to feel bad about shampooing my hair but it's only because I'm trying to resolve the scalp issues I've been having and the shampoo I have is tailored to address that. Still wanna work on balancing when I shampoo versus cowash but also wanna make sure I still get my scalp issues addressed when not shampooing
Your hair grows in every video you post I swear 😭
Kyla B I can’t keep up!
I have been cowashing with “As I Am” and I loooooooove it. My hair looooves it as well. I don’t see me switching to another brand any time soon. Thanks for the video.
How often do you use it
I like co-washes for a in the week refresh and for detangling mainly. I personally love shampoos! They are essential for me. I use products with oils and I layer different products onto my hair & it's pretty thick so I HAVE to have a clean slate. Clean hair is super important when trying new products and for getting the best out of deep conditioning as well! I so agree with not using silicones consistently, it makes it sooo much harder to keep your curls fresh.
Chloé-Ana Braidy do you use shampoos with sulfates?
@@KishhmyAss yes, i do occasionally
Good morning Alyssa Marie! I'm Geneva's Mother N Law, Aurelia aka (Reli) I been following you over a year. I just love how you started added what's your first choice in comparison to all the other co-washes you use. Please keep it up you have helped my hair tremendously, in advance thank you!
I’m 3c-4a and I LOVEEEE As I Am cowash 😍 It melts into my hair and detangles my hair without much effort at all. I never need conditioner after using it
The Rose Milk has no surfactant, which is a cleaning agent. I prefer the Citrus one (Norelli) it comes with white and orange packaging. It cleans very well and is quite softening to the hair. If I’m gonna use a cowash I still need it to cleanse. This one does it all, but it’s not as slippery as the Rose, but for me more importantly it cleanses as well as conditions, you may not even need a conditioner or deep conditioner afterwards, it’s that good. I just got my Curlsmith cowash, can’t wait to try it.
Great video girl. I love the Cantu cowash and now the honey handmade black soap and avocado cowash. I shampoo every other week and cowash every other week.
Ive never tried cowash, but Ive been thinking about trying it lately.
I am thinking of starting to co-wash and I found this video really helpful! Thank you so much!
I try aunt Jackie's coco wash conditioner cleanser, and it works just like a shampoo... makes bubbles and everything.
This was a really helpful video. My current problem is how long my wash n gos last, so I've been considering co-washing mid week for a curl refresh but was a bit apprehensive about washing my hair more than once a week. You've sold me on at least 3 of the products, if not all of them! Thank you x
I hop on your vids so fast 😪 was just about to order a cowash on Amazon!! Thankyou❣️
I used the White Orchid cleansing milk and really liked it 🙌🏾
You can still damage your hair by washing it too much even if you're using cowash and no sulfates. You can get moisture overload and hygral fatigue and really ruin your hair. It can make your hair unbalanced and lack adequate protein. It really can harm your cuticle and make your hair lose elasticity and break off. I like co-washes when my hair doesn't have a lot of product, I want to switch my style during the week or need a moisture boost but I still make sure I clarify at least once a month because our hair can build up with products, pollutants from the environment, minerals from the water we use, etc. We can accumulate build-up without even noticing it. My fave cowashes are As I am original and the tea tree and olive one, as well as Oyin Ginger mint (:
Greetings...After watching your videos last week, I have ordered just about all the CurlSmith Blue line. I only have the orange Cowash. I've used the Detox treatment, absolutely amazing. My scalp has NEVER felt so clean and happy. I don't want to put anything on my scalp. I love the umm... I am relaxing on my patio watching your videos on my tablet and don't feel like going in to get the name of this product, but it's the one in the tube that you put on your hair prior to applying the Flexi Jelly. I have just about all the Blue Line products. I'm waiting for several items in the Orange line to be delivered. I do have the cowash.
I am so happy to have come across your videos. The Detox is amazing...amazing isn't strong enough to truly describe what it does to the scalp and hair.
What great products CurlSmith has developed. You can't go wrong with any of it. It's definitely worth the investment 😉😍💕
I have been looking for some good cleansing moisturizing cowashes thanks so much for this vid it was soooo helpful !!! 😊💕💕💕
Tatyana Alexandria yayyy you’re so welcome!
Some cowashes lightly lather if you add water and use try to work it in
Great video! I love cowashing also and I wash my hair every 3-4 days. Shampoos dry out my hair sadly even the moisturizing ones but I use them occasionally to ensure I don't get buildup. My favorites are the matrix biolage cowash for curly hair now discontinued and the oyin gingermint cowash.
I want to try the camille rose cleansing cream, the neroli one
Daisy Flower The norelli one is awesome. It has a surfactant that cleanses the hair as well as the moisture. It moisturizes and cleans. Love it!!!
Uncle Funky had a really good co wash. I wash weekly with a non sulfate shampoo and I co wash midweek (depending on how my hair is styled). Once a month (depending on my build up if any) I'll use a sulfate shampoo. Too much co washing makes my scalp itchy.
I've never tried a cowash. I like a deep cleanse, but I recently got the Camille Rose Naturals Neroli Blossom Cleansing Milk, because I find myself wanting/needing to wash my hair before 7 days (I can push it to about every 5 days). Now I can wash my hair twice a week and use the cows between shampooing.
Omg I cowash as well with the as I am cowash and have been for like 5 months because I was tired of every shampoo matting my hair ( I have heat damage so I have different textures) and shampooing is the worst for me. I do prepoo with the Africans pride product instead and then go in with my cowash if I feel like I need to
I love cowashing, shampoos strip my hair so bad even the moisturizing ones.
Sebum and oils "build up" much more than silicones and are the primary reason we use surfactants.
Have you tried clay cleansers or Soultanicals butta shampoos? I feel like those are a great alternative because it’s nowhere near stripping and it’s moisturizing as well. The butta shampoos doesn’t have the same consistency as regular shampoos and actually feels like a cowash. I also recommend Chocolate Kinks and Kurls.
Henna Sooq is a great line to try when you have a chance.. I love all of their co wash’s
i like the KeraCare co-wash as well! it's super moisturizing and i love the smell
I'm very confused with the KERA care one because i checked out the ingredients and i don't see my cleansing properties
@@patb2582 i actually don’t even use it anymore. I don’t like any of their products anymore 🥴
Have you tried the cowash from the Camille Rose coconut water line?
Don't cowash it too often. Shampoos, real ones, actually balance your hair's PH. If you don't use them you better hope your conditioner can. It's vital to your hair's health.
Client Inbox LLc Oh wow, never heard that shampoo balances your hair. I usually will shampoo every three-four weeks. But her hair has grown a lot considering that. Something to think about. Thanks!
It can clog your pores and won’t grow. You should wash once per month. I learned from a trichologist
@@TWS1977 Sulfate shampoos destroy my hair just using it once. Doing scalp massages will prevent clogged pores.
@@TWS1977Lmao that’s not true
Video started at 6:22 yw
Thank you so much
Thank you, Queen 👑
thanks for sharing, i have tried the co-washes you mention in the video and they don't work with my hair. I've come to learn i need a sulfate shampoo for my hair to thrive. love your work =)
Thanks for sharing. I definitely wanna get my hands on the Curlsmith cowash and I still haven’t tried the as i am cowash everyone raves about. The Rose cleansing milk so cool but I think I like the blossom one better.
For the Curlsmith if you haven’t got it already there’s a sale on ultra
I’m a new subscriber. I absolutely love and appreciate the information that you provide on natural hair. I’ve been natural for almost 3 years. My hair is fairly thin and I’m contemplating doing the big chop and just starting over. Kinda scared 😟 of how my hair will look or if it will curl the same. I’ve seen people do the big chop and afterwards their hair looks more like an Afro rather than having curls. Any suggestions are appreciated ❣️
Angel O'Neal girllll I had no idea what mine would look like either! it was SOOO short but i’d love 10/10 recommend, it was such an amazing experience for me ❤️ good luck!
Alyssa Marie Thank you. Very encouraging 💕
Enjoyed you video. please do one on leave in conditioner's. Thank you💜🙏
Yessss! Thank you for this!
Do you know if hard water also plays a role in build-up or a co-wash's ability to cleanse? Thank you for the video also.
If you have hard water, I wont suggest to use cowash only. You would want to get a hard water/chelating shampoo. You can also use a swimmer's shampoo
@@daisyflower1545 Thank you so much for the response.
Just want to say thank you for gracing me with ALLL of this knowledge!
P.S I've subscribed! 🙋🏾♀️
P.S further.....🙋🏾♀️< she should really have beautiful, bouncy curls #amiright
Thanks Alyssa!
Wonderful!
Cha cha cha Charmin charmin 🤣😭
Thanks so much for this video!!!
have you ever used the True by Made Beautiful co wash? I love it alot as well!! I think you'd like it
I use Pantene gold series and I spray my hair with water am I doing the right thing sometimes I use the aloe vera spray
Russia Martin I don’t know much about pantene but if it works for then good!
@@AlyssaMarieXo it works great
I use their conwash and I love it and haven’t had any issues so far.
I love As I Am. And like the very light coconut smell. Not perfume.
Have you ever tried Briogeo be gentle, be kind cowash and if so what are your thoughts on that one?
Quick question! Do you typically deep condition after each co-wash or just weekly?
I know this video is about cowashing but I have a random question... Lol when you wash your hair twice a week do you find that you have less breakage and hair loss. I've been natural for a while now however I have so much hair loss that I tend to want to go back to straightening my hair because I feel like o have less hair loss... am I the only one?
I want to know that too! I have been using henna, ayurvedic herbs, and tea rinses to combat that. Try a green tea rinse, that should really help with hair loss. Still curious about more washing equaling less breakage.
I co wash my hair everyday. I have low porosity 3c4a hair.. and I use to have so much breakage and hair shedding when I would wash my hair. But when I started cowashing daily.. my hair is never dry and always moisturized, i have no breakage at all and shedding is very very minimal. I still shampoo and deep condition my hair once a week.. but my hair needs moisture so water everyday along with the cowash gives it what it needs.
Well I have 4c hair and when I was my hair more frequently (like once a week) it drys and breaks my hair
Great Video 🌹
I can't believe I watched that 30 Jedi Temple video 😂😁😂😁😂😁😂😁😂😂😂
😍💯🙌
I usually cowash every other week during the summer but in the winter I shampoo... I know some naturals only cowash and some naturals alternate between both... but I don't solely cowash because my hair craves shampoos :-) but what works for you may not work for me... but thank you for posting your fave cowashes I might just pick them up.
