    Q U E S T I O N S
    2:59 - Where is the Sulfur 8 video?
    3:24 - I use Blue Magic coconut oil grease because in my opinion it smells better, but I noticed that the blue and green blue magic have more ingredients... should I be using one of those instead for my 4a/4c hair???
    4:13 - I got blue magic but I got blue magic hair food. Is there a difference? Should I have gotten the original one? | Blue magic has many greases, which one y'all recommend?
    4:52 - I heard Sulfur 8 is really good but the scent is so strong. People can smell it in public places and at work. Is there a way to mask the smell or is there an unscented version? | Is there a grease that has little to no smell?
    6:00 - Has anyone tried Sulfur 8, Doo Gro, and JBCO? Does it actually grow hair?
    8:13 - Doo Gro and Sulfur 8 are mentioned but what do you think of Royal Crown?
    8:33 - My friend uses Virgin brand hair grease. Have you heard about it? Is it good?
    9:39 - Do anyone else know about La India? That was the grease hands down. Just can't find it anywhere anymore.
    10: 01 - I love this video! I want to give a mixture of hair grease a try. Any suggestions on which grease to use?

    When I was younger I always used hair grease, carrot oil hair creams and hair mayonnaise and my 3a-3c ) hair was Literally at my butt. I jumped into the natural hair community when I became a natural again and my hair was always dry af, I always had splint ends and my curls and springs were so damn dull. I went back to grease last week and my hair is exactly how it used to be. Soft, healthy and my little fro is popping.

      I know this is late reply, but my daughter had the same experience. She had never had a relaxer and I grew her hair long as a child using Luster's Pink Oil, Let's Jam and Grease below her bra strap and she retained length from elementary to entering college. While in college at around 21 she didn't have to "Go" natural but joined with me when I did using all the "natural" Regimens as well as the products from oils, creams, to the custards and gel, all of which damaged and broke her hair off badly! She stopped and went back to her Oil moisturizers and grease and never styles her hair I swear she leaves it ALONE in big twists and her hair is shooting out long and healthy again. She's 25 now grew her color out and we measured the demarcation from the color to her roots 6 in. in 6 mos. (still has never had a relaxer too) I wanna say she used Creme of Nature oil moisturizer and the Coconut oil Blue Magic, regardless grease is excellent at retaining moisture and twists.

    I've been using blue magic hair grease since I was 3. When I was born and up until that point I was bald and my mother was told that my hair would never grow by a specialist. I started using it and my hair was bottom of bra length. Last year I big chopped all my hair and went bald, now my hair is past shoulder length because I've been using the Blue magic coconut oil conditioner variant. That's the one I recommend, I've tried almost all of them and that one has contributed most to my hair growth

    I can vouch that the Virgin Hair Fertilizer is bomb asf for hair growth. The downside is the strong scent (doesn't really bother me) and the tingliness you get due to the strong peppermint. My mom mix it with other oils and products since she can't tolerate the strong peppermint scent and how it makes her scalp feels. Also, I saw massive hair growth after using it constantly (3x week) for like a month and a few days. Keep in mind, hair growth may vary amongst different individuals.

      Hey there, i use DAX indian hemp hair grease, virgin hair fertilizer, jamaican black castor oil. Taliha Wajid palm oil and she is bomb vitamin E hair oil. For my wash day i use Taliha Wajid hair stimulating mint clarifying shampoo(its a pre-poo) and then follow that up with Revlon black seed hair shampoo and conditioner. For a deep conditioner i use an aloe vera leaf cut in half, i rub the aloe vera leaf on my scalp and hair work it in really good and then i mix with flaxseed and monoi oil cover entire head for about an hour and then rinse. Once a month i use protein on my hair. I mix black rice and black sesame to make a protein treatment. To make this use about two table spoons of black rice and two table spoons of black sesame seeds pour about 4 cups of water let sit for 24hours and then use in a spray bottle. Only use this once a month because of its high protein.

I just have to check those ingredients but if I don’t the Sulfur 8 has always been used in my hair as a child. Right now I’ve been using Chébé powder. I still henna once a month but I put Chébé in my hair twice a week so I’m trying to incorporate Sulfur 8 on my scalp and Softee on my ends. Maybe look into Chébé powder.

      How are you,? I have been experiencing some loss around my edges and my hair or scalp is so dry. I have been trying many oils and for some reason my edges are experiencing some major challenges. I massage my scalp and when it's really itchy I do scratch a lot! Taking vitamins like B-Complex and biotin along with my mutivitamin. I am taking the chewables for the first time for the multivitamin and the hair, skin and nails along within Vit-D, B-Complex and I am taking a Potassium table because my potassium is low. Your hair is Gawgious! What would you suggest for my edges. I thought about cutting off all my hair (bought clipper set so I can start over)! Then I thought about the water where I live, the place has some mold which is actually in the bathroom and I wondered if that could be the challenge when it comes to my hair. I will await your response and am sooooooooo eager to hear from you! Just imagine, I grew up using the grease that you and some of the other Queen's mentioned. Maybe I should have not changed from that over the years. Sometimes I can't find it in the stores. I miss my thickness and my new growth would be so wavy and curly. When I wise color on my hair it curls up nicely but when I rinse it out, it's brillo pad hard and dry! I don't understand what's in the color that moisturizers my hair giving it that nice curly wavy texture! Okay Queen do your thing! Helps Sistah out! Cut it off or ........??

    Just subscribed to your new art channel!!! So excited!!
    I can attest to how much grease is LIFE!!! I've been using it again (Blue Magic and Dax) since April 2020 and my hair is finally retaining length, no longer shedding, doesn't break off, and stays moisturized!! The nape especially is phenomenal, I went from having barely any hair there to now I have an inch of growth that I can braid/two-strand twist. I'm still amazed at how fast grease improved my hair, literally within 2 weeks I saw and felt a difference, and also omitting coconut oil or any product that has coconut oil in it has helped too. Thankfully Blue Magic (the Blue and Green, their Super Sure Gro made my hair shed/break off so I steer away from any of their "Original" greases because they all have coconut oil in it so I just stick to their classic Blue or Green formula) and Dax (their Indian Hemp and Lanolin) does NOT have coconut oil so that's why I stick with those. And I love Sulfur 8, and can't wait to soon try your modified Sulfur 8 recipe!!! Grease Baby 4 Life! Thank you Efik Zara!!
