thank god, it feels like nobody talks about high porosity hair!!
Yes say it again!
And again!
WOW is that a rare vedio on high porosity hair
Lol exactly. We need more!
@@The.Whoever I do videos on my high porosity hair
@@MrsCowartsJourney That's what's up! Thanx for letting me know. Just subbed! 😘
I used to think i had low but tbh its been normal to high this entire time.
⁴⁴
Yes it's TRUE high porosity hair dries out alot for me when I spray my hair and plait twists it looks shiny and nice but after a day when I inplait my hair looks dry and not nice
This used to happen to me ALL THE TIME! 😞 To change this, I’ve started using the LOC+ method on my 4a/b, high-porosity, thin hair. I use a lighter leave-in (of the texture that she spoke about), a heavy oil (I usually use black castor oil), hair grease on my shaft, and ends, then my styling creme or custard. I haven’t really liked gels on my hair, but I think I’d use a gel for a longer-term protective style in my last step. My hair stays moisturized for at least 2 days, usually 3-4.
Mine too
Same,my hair is drier than the Sahara desert after two days🤦♀️
Same! BUT I use AsIAm jbco leave in conditioner and have found it keeps my hair moisturized for at least least 2 to 3 days. It make look dry on the outside but when untwist my twist it's still moisturized. I also do the LOC method then I two strand twist my hair and roll the twist up half way with perm rods, air dry or use a diffuser to dry. Unroll then untwist and you have a BOMB TWISTOUT!!! And my fine strands stay looking curly longer! Try it❤
Please sis add subtitles to your videos. even every black woman can benefits from these Useful information. even those non native speaker in english. We are black women. we love you from Saudi Arabia
Sorry for my bad english
You can access subtitles in the settings (bottom right of the video)
Elyse George but the only caption option is auto-generated... and that doesn’t help. Lol
Hi
@@youtubeaddict5663 wow, I swear I learn something new everyday.😅 i been over looking it the whole time.
TheFactsAccordingToGabbie1791 hahaha glad I could help 😇
This woman doesn’t want me to sleep. Her videos are too perfect 😫😫❤️❤️❤️😂
😂 go to sleep sis
I noticed women who have natural high porosity hair tends to have zig zag curve curly hair or a mixture of corkscrew curls and zig zag curvy curls on the same hair strands.
Right because thats how my high porosity hair is
@@ziyaandzay if you look at my playlist. I am studying hair types at different porosity levels to see if they still differ or it is consistently in similarities.
This is true my hair is the same way, no coil or or curl it just does a break dance down the shaft and the only time it curls is at the ends after I put it in fine plaits after 2 days thats it 😔
Mine is 4c and mostly coily (corkscrew shape). I don't have many zigzags
The only thing that really helps my high porosity hair is henna. It's like a permanent protein treatment because the particles go and fill the holes in permanently. I also use mafura butter (which is naturally conditioning), Shea Nilotica (East African shea butter) and Muru-Muru butter which acts as a natural silicone. These help keep my hair 'intact', keeping moisture in and hair soft. Also pre-pooing with coconut oil or any coconut based conditioner before washing to help with hygral fatigue so the 'shingles' that make up your strands don't open up further while washing, causing more damage.
Hi thanks for the comment I was wondering if you have a good source where you purchase your stuff from?
Do you mean henna the one in a white tin with black words?
I really want to try henna but I’m terrified I’ll mess it up. 😳
Henna made my hair super dry and brittle afterwards 😳 also you cannot dye your hair with regular hair dye after you use henna. It is permanent and must be grown out or cut off before you dye with salon dye. I know it really works for some people but just be sure to do your research. I wish I had known that before I did it because I really want to dye my hair.
Eman Eman the henna made my hair super dry and like hay. I had to give it lots of conditioning treatment to revive it and it’s still not as strong as before. I know this isn’t the case for everyone just make sure it’s right for your hair. Be sure you’re not planning to dye it with salon or box anytime soon because it’s difficult, you’d have to strip out the color and use bleach.
Yay! Finally more for us HiPo gals! Thank you!
Right lol!
Why are you not a teacher? You're the best chem. teacher I never had.
EXACTLY!!! If Green Beauty was my chemistry teacher, I would have gotten an A bcuz I loved learning the content. But, that was so many years ago before TH-cam existed. I gotta admit, I watch these videos like I'm in class, with my note taking accessories ready for all the Golden nuggets she throws at us.
Thank you! I tell people all the time my hair is so thin...but it’s thick😭😭 like I can’t explain.
Fine strands, but high 'density. A lot of hairs per square inch. The best kind.
@@HoneyBrown831 yes ma’am! right on the nose
Sameeee
Same here but now it seems to have thinned out some idk why🤔
Wow. I always had a feeling that braids were not helping my hair... And I never really trusted my gut. But now I better understand why! My hair usually comes out of braids looking way thinner for some reason, and with lots of split ends. I'll stick to my twists from now on!
Uhmmm...is not the braids its the tension you put on the hair roots when you make the braids.....
Same here. I stopped braiding my hair a year ago and switched to hairband wigs. My hair has grown a lot more and it seems much thicker
Wow I just figured out as well that braids aren't good for my high porosity hair. I would loose so much hair and have split ends all the time. Natural hair is definitely trial-and-error and I finally realized I can't wear braids and if I do wear then too long my shedding is worse!!! So I decided I need to stick with two strand twist or plaits that way no pulling and damaging my fine high porosity hair.
@@elodiei.5087 yes wearing a headband wig definitely helped me keep my twist moisturized
Yes braids can and do cause shredding. However, since am using powdered collagen in smoothies, it's improved drastically. I also take vitamin C which helps with the absorption of the collagen in my body. Hope this helps 🤗
I appreciate how you emphasize that many people's hair can grow out naturally high porosity even when they have never used chemical processes or heat. Most others who speak on the subject claim it only comes from being damaged in some way. Thank you so much
Yea, I know what you mean. I noticed the same this. High porosity is also a hair type. It don’t have to self inflicted or unhealthy
@@GreenBeauty How do you fill damaged cuticles mine is self inflicted lol since I decided to do a balayage.
@@smiles9599 henna
Yup! The second I read or hear it come out of their mouths I stop the video,scroll past, stop reading or exit the screen.
Try adding extra high quality Protein to your daily diet. Drink more water and make sure you are not anemic.
The things that helped my HiPo hair the most have been weekly mayo treatments w/ heat and monthly henna treatments. I know the protein in eggs isn't hydrolyzed so it can't penetrate but honestly out of all the expensive protein treatments I've tried, nothing leaves my hair smoother, stronger and shinier than mayo and henna. I have greater humidity resistance, less breakage & shedding, and easier detangling. They're both super affordable too!
Thank you for this video.
High porosity always gets such a bad rep it's annoying 😩.
I used your real protein treatment along with olaplex and the extreme breakage I was experiencing on my high porosity hair literally stopped in its tracks! No breakage whatsoever your videos have single-handedly helped me change the health of my hair! Thanks for all that you do!
What real protein treatment did you use? And what number Olaplex?
@@trawlins396 I don't know if you already received an answer, but the name of the product is called Real Protein
Green Beauty makes and sells it on her site
She has a store
She also has a couple of videos here on TH-cam about how to use it
It's an excellent product, especially for high porosity hair HTH
@@trawlins396 Exactly. What number Olaplex?
What number of Opalex did you use sis??
What number of olaplex please?
Yesss come through with the information Green Beauty! 🙌🏾 VERY detailed, in depth video. All of the tips you mentioned are significant in improving the health of both self inflicted and naturally high porosity hair. Over time, following those four tips you mentioned will not only make high porosity hair easier to care for, but it'll also look/feel so much healthier! Also, thank you for featuring my content in your video! As a long time subscriber of your channel, I was stoked when I saw my video pop up on the screen LOL! You've inspired me to create even more content centered around high porosity hair. Thank you! ❤️
Heck yeah! I'm high porosity too and I love this channel as well as yours.
Can you do a video(or two)about the effects of different hydrolyzed proteins(quinoa, collagen, keratin, silk, wheat etc...) on high, medium and low porosity hair?
Fermented Rice Water is good for high po hair for protein that seeps in and strengthens the hair.
But my hair falls due to rice water and drys out
@@haniafaisal698 It can if you use it more than your hair can stand and for everyone that is different.
Yes thank you so much May Allah bless you with best .Ameen . Today i put rice water for 30 mins and there is no hair fall thanks again .
My hair is allergic to rice water and eggs. It loves protein, but only hydrolysed. I am high porosity.
@@politereminder6284 Well yes if you are allergic to anything organic or not, you don't want to put it in or on your body. Its good that you know that but it take time and usage to know.
Yes this came in time because I'm low porosity but I'm taking care of these little girls with high porosity hair!
Your voice is so relaxing
Thanks 😏
@@GreenBeauty 😹😹
My naturally high porosity, fine, low density hair has never been better since I started doing rice water rinses as a protein treatment! I usually do them every other week on wash day and it's been great.
Yess I do them on my high porosity hair also. I just started using black rice instead of the white rice I used b4
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I was checking out a TH-camr called Curly Hair Ninja. She is a hairdresser ("Professional Curly Hair Stylist")who insists that this information is all wrong. This is how people become confused and end up not knowing what to do for their hair's health. She says that porosity has been taught backwards from what really applies! She states that low porosity breaks more easily and high porosity takes a long time to dry because it holds water inside longer and can't dry quickly.
I KNOW that what you are saying is correct because I have been following your advice and learning about my high porosity hair ever since I found your channel.
My hair is healthy high porosity, low density and fine. since I've been following your advice my hair has never done so well.
Dryness is my biggest problem. The Real Protein treatment has been helping tremendously. I'm just figuring out how frequently to use it. Again, thank you for your precise, scientific explanations. It all makes perfect sense when you break it down. This is why I limit who I follow and listen to. I look around sometimes just to see what some people have to say. I always end up right back here where things make sense!
Did you figure out how frequently to use protein?
@@motherspiders3913 Yes. I started out using it every 2 weeks. Now I'm finding that once a month is working out well.
My hair began to feel a little bit hard. I cut back on the frequency (to once per month), and now I'm doing great!
@@natural7ly694 thank you so much, first time I used it as well my hair was so soft and controlled so I stocked 6 bottles of syoss 80% more keratin and now I figured out it made my hair super flat and brittle and with my pixie cut I think it'll probably expire before I use them up xD
@@natural7ly694 oh also what's the real protein treatment is that a home made with mayo or eggs and stuff?
@@motherspiders3913 If you go to Green Beauty's site she has the BEST videos on hair care on TH-cam (in my opinion).
She sells a product called Real Protein.
The great thing about it is that you mix it right into your favorite moisturizing conditioner (I like Curl Junkie's Curl Rehab) and you end up with the perfect balance of protein and moisture. She tells you the amount to use based on YOUR hair's porosity.
There is a lot of information about it on her site so you can learn about your hair's porosity and how the treatment works before you buy it.
The molecules in the keratin and many other protein treatments (like eggs, etc) are too large to penetrate the hair. Hers is made with hydrolyzed wheat protein, which is broken down (by hydrolyzation) to be small enough to fill in the gaps in the hair shaft.
My hair is high porosity so it really has been a Godsend for me. Her entire site has been.
All the things I've learned there I've share with others and suggested they check out her TH-cam site.
I hope that helps.🤗
I wish I could like this a billion times. I was born with hair my mom calls “like a spider web of cotton.” My hair is high porosity, super fine, and ridiculously curly. And One drop off water flattens it. I loved my hair because I could wash it and go, until people started trying to tell me it was from damage. The only time I’ve struggled with my hair is when I don’t wash it, try to keep it straight, or put product on it. Since moving to the desert, it’s been difficult to keep it moisturized, so I’m super grateful for the advice about protein I’ve gotten from your channel.
Thank you so much. I wish you would talk about sulfate free cleansing for those of us who simply must wash at least every other day. My hair cannot handle ANY BUILDUP whatsoever. So cowashing helps. But I wish people would talk about careful and gentle washing for us wash and go folks.
I love wash n gos but I realized that wearing it out like that all the time I needed to wash once a week because of products buildup and those darn single strands knots and tangles but since I'm a lazy natural I would never wash once a week only every 2 or 3 weeks so I felt it was best to stop wearing wash n go and start wearing 2 strand twist which is more gentle and i can keep moisture in my hair better by doing the loc method then 2 strand twist
@@Shrimp459high porosity hair should be washed more often regardless of wearing it out or not. It needs to be refreshed.
@livelovely4681 yes you're exactly right it does and I have learned this just recently I need to wash at least once a week but since I recently had an issue with my scalp being irritated and itchy I stopped putting any product except on hair except to moisturize it which I only used ONE PRODUCT. I wanted to give my scalp time to heal from whatever had caused it to flare up. I would massage my scalp with fresh Aloe Vera gel from the leaf, let it sit on my scalp for about 15 minutes then rinse my hair
Thank the lucky stars. I could hug you right now. Finally some info on high porosity natural hair, like mine. I was born with HP hair. It's very spongy. It dries so fast after I wash it. I literally have to re-wet the other sections, when braiding. However, my hair does grow fast, and can get dense, with a healthy diet. Also, my hair hates protein. I do use eggs from time to time. Some of the natural ladies in your vid have hair similar to my daughter's and mine. TFS this!!!
I see my self,😂😂😂
Thank you for this wonderful video and for featuring my Tolani on your video. 💕💕
Wanted yo say dat too dat she featured discovery natural daughter......
@@omolaraadebayo9953 Thanks
@Hamza Yusuf both yall created your acc two weeks ago. Quit ur bs.
Can you do a video on How to grow your edges specifically on your temple?
Can you go into dept on hair accessories like silk vs satin vs licra and different types of clips and cuffs?
I'd like that too.
Id love a vid on thissss
I'm naturally high porosity! I don't use any type of heat because i get damage no matter what. I can use the best type of heat protectant and still get heat damage.
Now, I know why. My cuticle layers must be very fine. Also, I probably have less cuticle layers on my hair strands!
Thanks for shedding light on high porosity hair!💕
Hi! I have very fine hair and I use heat, I never have damage. (thats my afro lightly blowed out in the thumbnail) There are only 2 instances that I use it: 1. When I condition or deep condition, it improves your conditioning process results if you sit under a hooded dryer with a plastic cap on for 15-30 mins and let "heat" warm your conditioner and open your hairshaft, then I rinse in cool. 2. I completely STOPPED flat-ironing! They are ALL( ceramic tourmaline titanium etc.)flat plates are damaging. I use old school electric pressing comb, NO heat protectant, no need to trace with a comb and just use the back of it as hair goes thru. You can use some oil, I use grape seed oil before you blow-dry, not after. Oh yeah and I use the tension method to blow dry, holding the hair straight out and blowing it dry, half the work right there. Then hot-comb press. My hair looks straighter than those who use flat-irons, lasts longer... but i only do it a few times a year. Try it and they are like $25-50 compared to the $75-200 professional flat-irons.
@@nnaturalheaven3754
Thanks for your comment.
Blow drying is where I experience the most heat damage... heat protectant and all.
This is my fourth time getting heat damage from heat tools while also using heat protectant.
My coil pattern just loosens up permenantly. I don't have breakage with my heat damage.
So, I'm glad Green Beauty made this video.
I finally have some answers!
@@humblelife7136 okay well good luck!
Humble Life Me too! I have completely stopped blow drying.
Do you have a book with this info. You do a great job explaining hair.
there is a book called “THE SCIENCE OF BLACK HAIR” by Audrey Davis-Sivasothy
I SWEAR BY THIS BOOK.
Hi Everybody, I have super dry hair and my hair was breaking all by itself. And I am gentle. For many years I haven't used blow driers, curling iron only when I really need some help! Basically just roll the hair in large/largest curlers, and let it dry overnight.
I've been using a Tea Rinse after shampooing for about 2.5 months. Pour that big picture of STRONG BLACK TEA on my hair, then finish my showering before rinsing it out. No conditioners. I am still continuing with the castrol oil treatment. I'm losing less than half the hair I used to! My hair is recovering!
@Just meI
I'm over 50 and so for 40+ years used every deep conditioner that was available! I really want to look up the PH of black tea because whatever it is doing is working great. Of course I still use a Castor oil jelly on wet hair before rolling. My hair has got decent control for about 4 days afterward.
Thank you for the informative video! Can you do a video on the science of Olaplex and natural hair? Especially high porosity?
Thank you so much for posting this and linking TH-camrs with high porosity. I’ve been feeling lost with my hair as I felt like I’m doing everything but just recently had to trim off 4 months of growth again due to split ends...again. Just this video and a few of the other links made me realize I have been slipping on my protein treatments! Thanks again and please continue to post more content on high porosity hair :-)
I just recently did a video on the pro 2 trimmer and how it helps saved my length.
@@MrsCowartsJourney what is pro 2 trimmer
Hard water damage is something that crept up on me I would suggest to anyone to pay close attention to that before the damage is done 😔
I watched this video Feb. 2020....and i really appreciate it. I hate that people believe that high porosity equals damaged hair. Yes, i use Aloe vera and okra juice and i also have a consistent regimen, people even think that i have normall/medium because of how my hair behaves.
When I do rice water conditioning for a week, my hair come back to life, soft and grow faster. I have high porosity hair and it loooooooves shea mixed with hibiscus. My hair also like olive oil, almond oil, jamaican castor oil, sulfur 8 grease, mango oil, and argan. My hair grows super fast and I shampoo only every 3 months and just do hair rinses until then. My hair also LOVE STEAMING CAP.
Well, that's just unhygienic.
I’m soooo glad I saw this video. ❤️
When it first came out, I immediately implemented these tips (products with mucilage - I use castor oil to seal my hair, switched out my hair bands, and stretch my hair after washing it).
I’m so glad I’ve finally created a regimen that works for me. I still need to add protein treatments into my regimen tho. ☺️
It broke my heart when you said it was permanent... But I'm starting to take care of my hair so I hope it can look better
@Ocean Breeze wow well done 🤣🤣
@Ocean Breeze Girl 💀
I'm low porosity but i enjoy learning new things. This info will come in handy for a family member or friend💚
Great tips for high porosity hair! I use them all and my hair is thriving. The other thing I find that helps is having enough protein in my diet as well. Not having enough tends to increase my shedding. That may not be strictly for high porosity hair, but it definitely helps!
monnie j amazing
True! Added extra Protein in diet and I see a difference.Thanks for the reminder.
You use the "scooping and spreading" method by sliding down the sebum to the length of your hair!
That video answers so many of my questions! Thank you
Hi Green Beauty! I've definitely enjoyed this series. The answer to the giveaway question is: You use beauty from a blowdryer to stretch your hair. This, along with the scoop and spread method (sometimes using a little water to loosen up the sebum), allows you to attain full sebum coverage!
You then put your stretched hair in comfortable twists! It's how I've started doing it too :)
So glad to see you back :)
My hair is high porosity but hates strong treatments. So I use light protein treatments and henna to strengthen my hair. But it loves henna better. I also wash my hair twice a week to add moisture midweek. I have also noticed that aloe vera seems to moisturize and detangle my hair better.
I think it would also be helpful to talk about moisture overload. I used your videos to create a customized hair regimen for my high porosity 4C thin medium-density hair. I made 2021 the year of hair care. However, I used too much moisture as I moisturize my hair most mornings(I've been wearing my hair in twist almost the entire year) and only used a protein treatment of rice water on a monthly basis. Over time, my hair started to shed like crazy and I couldn't figure out what was going on until I finally realized, a few weeks ago(yep almost a whole year confused), that I had moisture overload. It's something very few people on TH-cam talk about. I used the intense aphogee protein treatment and the shedding stopped immediately. I wish I'd known sooner not just the importance of protein treatments but also the importance of the moisture-protein balance.
Moisturizing every day is suicidal for hight porosity hair. The key to a very well moisturized hair is the sealant.
Me not knowing my hair porosity has coursed alot of set backs in my natural hair journey. And now that I understand ND know that I'm high porosity, I no longer use heat on my hair and I definitely see the difference.
Blow dry your hair to stretch it, scoop and spread with a little pH stabilizer and then you twist it up.
👆🏿Yup! I literally just did this just now with some good ol Luster's pink moisturizer, some Camille rose oil and liiiiitle bit of water on my ends mixed in because they're the oldest strands. It feels so good to not have a tight dry scalp! 💖💖💖
High porosity hair should be exposed to as little hear to no heat at all.
Try stretching your hair, if its high p. naturally instead of with a blow dryer
@@ChelX I agree, such as the banding method or thread
What does ph stabilizer do
@@estheriyilw6890 stabilize the ph levels in your hair
This was so helpful and reassuring. Many videos dance around the concept of porosity but no one described in sufficient enough depth.
I don't have natural hair and im just a girl with straight fine thin hair and I feel like this helps me to understand hair. I appreciate your videos
You blow dry your hair to stretch it & use your Scoop & Spread Method for sebum coverage! 💆🏿♀️
You helped me figure out that my hair is naturally high porosity! 🤗
I just came here to say that your protein treatment saved my hair. I completely neglected it after I had my son and it was "dead"for about a year. I did one protein treatment and it's like it's been reborn. Thank you for taking the time to create it!
Wait so my high porosity is self-inflicted due to coloring and over-manipulation, so does that mean that the damaged portion of the strand can never be nursed back to, if not a normal porosity (I figured that wouldn’t really be possible) but a lower porosity?? 😢 Once it’s shot out, it’s done??? If that’s the case I deadass feel like I’ve been punched in the stomach cuz I spent so long growing it. 😭 I FINALLY understand why some women can have such a strong emotional response and attachment to their hair and the different manifestations and circumstances around it that might occur over the course of their lives. I feel like it’s my baby, and I ruined it and now all I can do is patch it up every day and send it out into the world, and what kind of life is that? Sigh, well it does grow back so I may have to lip it off, and do what women have been doing for centuries, pick up my feelings, be patient, and grow it back. One things for sure, I’ve never experienced anything like this high porosity before with my hair and I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t more than just a little stressful and anxiety-inducing…leave the crib looking, not spectacular maybe, but it’s cool it’s presentable, and then an hour later, as I’m walking through the door to work, it looks like I got struck by a lighting bolt in the Sahara Desert during a drought. 👀😳😤🤬🤦🏽♂️
First off, you write really well. I appreciate that b/c I love to write. Even on the most healthy head of hair, the ends are always going to have a higher porosity than the rest of the hair. From what you described so eloquently, yours are a bit more high in porosity for the time being. Add the REAL Protein Treatment to your hair regimen to help keep those damaged areas patched up as you grow out your hair. And you should be back to some normalcy in a few months or so.
This is exactly what I wanted someone to reiterate to me. My strands are fine and they do act high porosity. So, fine strands should be treated like high porosity.
You used your infused oil to scoop and spread sebum coverage and to protect your hair from heat damage. Then you used low heat to stretch the root of your hair, you twist your hair to prevent shrinkage and you used puff-cuff to clip your hair for stretching.
Wow! Thank you so much! I always thought that my hair was just weak. You have brought me into the know. Thank.
Now I know why my hair loves and thrive with flaxseed. Great Video.
I wish you can do a series of identifying hair strand size and porosity of known natural hair care and chemical treated hair bloggers.
i wish too
Hi! Thanks for this video :) I really needed it since my hair is high porosity.
Also, the method you use to achieve full sebum coverage is scooping and spreading while your hair is in small sections. You use water to loosen up the sebum, which allows you spread it down more easily and evenly to your strands. To allow for more sebum to go down easily and to stretch your hair, you start your twists a bit away from the roots :)
Lol. I still feel like I need to reword the last sentence. *To stretch your hair, you use 2 strand twists, but you start the twist a bit away from the roots so more sebum will go down to the strands more easily.
Love the nails!! I’ve been growing my nails for a while so I love seeing others with natural nails! Yours are very well maintained and I know they took a long time to grow.
Best video I've seen yet❤️🤗

Doesn't aloe vera dry up quickly? If your environment is quite dry, then humectants may not be as helpful... unless you cover your hair the majority of the time. 🌵🌵🌵
@@disaj7460 true. i guess it depends on what you're using it for exactly. might not be best for everyday moisture unless you're mixing it with other ingredients.
My high porosity hair loves Aloe vera. I spread it on my edges and ends at night and in the morning.
I recently did my big chop after transitioning for a little over 4 yrs. Now that I get to see my natural hair in full action, I think that I'm high porosity. I relate to the points about dryness and try to put oil onto my hair asap to seal moisture and shine

Check everyday to to see if hair is dry. If hair is dry go back a day and make that your scoop and spread day.
You use products to help the sebum in the first week .
Do this for a month.
Hi🙂
To keep your hair streched you do a blowout session with hair divided into roots, middle and end with more care on the ends.
Then to maintain a clean scalp, and keep it streched as well as lubricated you perform the scooping and spread method with the use of the base of your fingers, a water based spritz and little organic oil to loosen the sebum due to little production of it at the initial first two weeks and later with just the natural sebum in the next 3-4 weeks.
What you have a super streched hair.. Tried it myself and it actually works.

OMG this is unbelievable! I always have a trouble with natural hair videos and tips since 99% of them rely on having low porosity hair. This has always been the case since I was small. But it’s so difficult as I can never get the protein/moisture balance right. And since so many bemoan protein and my hair thrives on it, it causes a scare. My hair needs protein about twice a month. Also wash and go’s are a no go. Not only do I have a shit ton of hair/high density, but it gets lots of frizz unless I seal it with a gel. Oils and butters I have to be careful with because my skin breaks out...I’m actually considering relaxing it since my hair thrived and it was the same state when it was relaxed. At least I had more variety of looks. I can’t style my hair outside of two strand twists since it’s too much and it takes so long. If I had a looser type and less hair I’d remain natural but at this rate I’m losing morale. Thank you for your work. I will try to push on but tbh my hair makes me cry.
Just found out my hair is high porosity! All this time I've been convinced it was low😂
Anita Faith same girl
@blue skies i've noticed how it behaves when wet, (does it dampen immediately or droplets form etc) and how long it retains moisture for (when moisturised correctly!)
lol
Me too and for the last month I've really changed my reginime and I see a difference. Been trying to grow my hair for years. I was so neglectful with keeping it moisturized. I really have to do it daily. And oil is my best friend more than ever now.
Me too!😢
Could you do a 'truth about hair grease' series, including how best to use it (or why it shouldn't be used if that's what the evidence suggests)? TIA!
PackofDiscos THIS ! as a sealant I’m thinking
top video recommended. I finally got up the courage to wash my hair during quarantine and am I need of some tips... it's been a few days 😅

Great content. You helped me understand my hair so much. Thanks a billion.
Thank you for the tip about products and ingredients to look for.
Thank you so much GB! High porosity over here!!!Your videos are so informative and professional! I have been doing your onion juice recipe and seeing some improvement. 😊
You use a blower dryer to stretch your hair and scoop and spread to distribute your sebum. Love your channel!!
Nice video. I fight to keep my thinning hair growing, even as I age, so I’ll try some of these tip with some of the other ones I’m doing and see what happens. Thanks!
THANK YOU! Makes so much sense! My hair is fine and high porosity naturally! Thank you!
Blow dry to stretch and use scoop and spread method to move sebum from scalp through the length of hair!
I have high porosity hair. I watch both of those ladies. Great video!

Thank you Green Beauty because if it wasn't for your channel, i wouldn't know what to do with my hair product wise.
Thanks for this video....I never relaxed my hair, I have naturally high porosity hair, before I had an impression that my hair was not growing at all, until I learned how to take care of it and start doing so, I understood that my hair was breaking.
Actually I am experiencing hair growth and length retention even though I am facing shedding and breakage due to delivery but I am seeing it.... yes consistency is key....natural hair is beautiful
Daria Ofour take hair vitamins and deep conditioned your hair every time you wash and do protein treatments every 8 weeks
You use the scrinch and preen method on your hair to get full sebum coverage and to keep your hair stretched you blow dry it with cold air and twist it !!!
Btw thank you so much for all the hair information you're amazing
Green Beauty I am patiently waiting for your products to return so I can order.
You are gift to the natural community! THANK U!
👏BRAVO!👏
This is video a game-changer! This explains why I was experiencing a lot of breakage.💡
I have HP 4A-C type-hair and recently discovered I MUST apply various forms of oil to my scalp & hair, on a regular bases; the HOT oil treatments are making a HUGE difference! It has added 45mins to my 2-hour shampoo routine. Oh, well, my healthy-beautiful hair is worth it!

You keep your hair stretched by scoop and spreading method; this is done before your hair gets dry. First, you massage your scalp using your finger tips You scoop the sebum on 1-2 inches of the hair closest to your scalp and spread to the entire length of your hair. Working your way down,you spray some water-base spirit to further break down the sebum on 1-2 inches of your hair. You Only use small amount of spirit so your ends don't shrunk up. And using organic oil applied to your finger tips to slide down even more. The process also helps to remove shed hairs. After this process you twist your hair.
I think I agree with the Curl Ninja about hair porosity. Low porosity repels water. High porosity soaks up water. My ends are higher porosity, they soak up water and hold on to it. They are the sections that stay wet the longest. My low/medium porosity sections dry quicker. Try dunking your hair in a bucket of water or in the pool and see how it reacts and dries.
Best video on high porosity!!!!!!
You stretch using a blow dryer, massage scalp and then scoop and spread method to encourage the sebum from your scalp to your hair strands. Sometimes adding oils
i follow the girl at 1:10 on the right!, she's so cool, i started researching bleaching more and made me believe i could dye my hair because of her! i want crazy hair colours too! 👯♀️👯♀️
Thanks so much Chile!! It's about time for me to get some more real protein treatment lol I've been giving it away and using it!!! ☮❤💡

Hey GreenBeauty! I am currently trying to figure out my own natural hair. I have been natural all my life but I couldn't seem to figure it until I found your channel. I am struggling to find a healthy hairstyle that would let my crown and edges to let my hair and scalp breathe. I like your hairstyle with the puffcuff and large twist. Could you do a tutorial on how you do that hairstyle?
Swissiefly box braids or twist
Neglect, lack of moisture and excessive tension caused me to get high porosity. Now, I'm really taking care of my hair and hoping I can normalize my porosity.
You massage your scalp to loosen up the sebum. Then you scoop and spread the sebum down the length of your hair using your finger tips or nail bed. Sometimes lightly spritzing your hair with a water based product with a acidic ph ... also sometimes an organic oil to help it along.
You're nails are beautiful. Can you do a video on nail care? Please and thank you.
I have all those products already. Thank you for my healthy hair journey tutorials.😘
Can we get a tutorial on those nails!
You use the scoop and spread method to keep your hair stretched and covered with sebum.

Yesss them nails are beautiful
