I thought the Olaplex no. 3 was supposed to be used before washing hair?
Yea! A lot of times my hair is really dirty and its coated in all types of product, so ill use a clarifying shampoo first. You can opt to place the #3 here in between steps and then follow up with a moisturizing shampoo. I always double cleanse anyway. Hope that helped and sorry if it was confusing via video
No it’s after you wash the hair i use it that way to remove all the buildup and then I shampoo again after leaving it from 10 to 1h 30min or sometimes I leave it overnight I definitely noticed a difference when I left it for a longer then only 10min
@@celia7288 makes sense because I used to wonder if it would be so effective for natural hair girlies like us that happen to apply lots of products normally to just use the Olaplex no 3 without first doing some bit of washing on our strands. I will definitely try this after washing, apply then wash again. Not sure how safe for me is the leaving for longer though with all these law suits flying about 🤭. Thanks!
@@shashagirl It is. Its suppose to be used before washing your hair its not a conditioner its a bond builder. It says on the directions.
@@celia7288 Your suppose to use it before shampooing its a bond builder hun.
I don’t blame the natural TH-camrs of yester-year. They were trying to navigate a world where it was relaxer or struggle. I think nowadays there is so much more information and more actual science being incorporated into how we take care of our hair and it’s beautiful to see the growth.
I agree! That’s why i was like i get it. Now that we know better we do better! 🙌🏿❤️
@@folahontas after the first few months of going natural I learned to not follow "trends" and just keep it simple and do what my hair and scalp likes. I do my hair just like this about twice a week, minus the blow drying. 👍🏾 Your hair is gorgeous! ❤️
Hair relaxers are bad and they can cause cancer, it's best to avoid them at all costs
Not yesteryear 😂❤
I just had this combo yesterday. I’ve gone natural twice and my first time was such a struggle because of the lack of representation for our hair type on TH-cam and information wise! You are so right
Length retention on a thousand 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾. No breakage shawty !!
HELLLOOOOO 😏🙌🏿🫶🏿
I thought I was the only one that essentially gives my hair a water wash for about 10 minutes before I do anything else. My hair and scalps loves it.
Me too 🙇🏿♀️
Same! It was a game changer for detangling
I really like to watch your channel and I know I am just 9 and watching u but all those 9-year-olds who just like to watch kids' stuff me watching you is a dream come true I love you so much and hope you have a good day. this helps me a lot because I have really dry hair, this video helps, thank u for entertaining me.
I totally agree with you re: breakage. There was a time in my life where I would have broken hair in the sink, on the floor, and on my shirt every time I did my hair. I thought this was normal. I have learned how to properly care for my hair, and like you, I no longer have broken hairs after styling my hair.😊
what do you do? because I always get breaker, even earn finger detangling
@@EsiriE I am EXTREMELY gentle when finger detangling, or when handling my hair in general. Our hair is so fragile, and easy to break. Gentleness has worked well for me.
I agree, I can't stand when people say to wash your scalp only, um no you should be washing your entire head of hair, period!!
Your hair is gorgeous
Thank you 🥹🫶🏿
Girl thank you so much for this. You really contributing to the evolution of natural hair journeys. I use to swear by “pre pooing” and though I do it faithfully, I always wanted something that didn’t take that much effort. Fire video👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Whew! You have been released from the naturalista hold. I love to see it! No deep conditioning for days, only washing the scalp, and reading product directions.
Yup I used to only shampoo my scalp and gently smooth it over my hair strands 🥴🥴🥴 I'm so glad I saw someone's TikTok 6 months ago about them washing their hair frequently and then I found curl specialists! They saved my hair fr. I just had a 45 min wash day today & 25 minute styling before the end of the day!!! 5+ hour wash day me 6-10 years ago wouldn't have thought it was possible
I now love washing my coily hair 🥺 Your hair is beautiful!
Some naturals overcomplicate wash day and natural hair in general...I only use deep conditioners when I need lots of moisture/protein (or even both).
Definitely have been softly detangling and using the recommended time for deep conditioning and it’s been so time saving. Love this!
Yass you betta cut open those products 😂 We getting EVERY pennies worth 💯
Instant new follower. Your hair is gorgeous. Your video is clear and actually helpful. I Stan!
I don’t leave conditioner for an hour either! My hair grew from ear to mid back length just using deep conditioner for the duration of my shower, not even steaming it under a shower cap either
Your hair is so beautiful! Thank you so much for this!
YOU ARE GOLDICURLS. Just loooove your hair
This video is truly top tier👏🏾 Saved to my hair education playlist.
It's the saturate your hair in water for 5 to 7 min part, since your last video its fasho a game changer❤❤
Gorgeous hair sis! The editing is top tier!
😳😱😍😍😍😍 WOOOOOW! Your hair is GORGEOUS!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This summarises what I have been telling everyone for years. My wash day is 20 minutes and has been for years. Shampoo thoroughly , condition and deep condition for 5-10 minutes only as and when needed. Sometimes my hair feels so soft I only need a leave in spray and its exactly the same texture and density as yours
same here, i only use leave in spray
I'm transitioning to natural and saving this video! I like how simple this routine is and I take similar steps with my relaxed hair now which is pretty healthy. Definitely not trying to change the foundational steps too much, and I think this video showed me I won't need to. It's encouraging!
Would love to see more of these videos. This is very interesting to me!
Not the soul glow beauty shot 😆loved this, I needed some ideas for my wash day because my hair has changed during and after my pregnancy.
Really simple routine, I’ve been doing the same lately. It really saves time and makes washing my hair less stressful.
Excellent video, love seeing more naturals giving up raw oils and shampooing to match the build up level on the hair. It has made me fall back in love with my natural hair, now that i’m not dealing with brittle dehydrated hair from build up.
I cannot find that felicia leatherwood brush anywhere, it’s been sold out forever. Considering a tangle teazer with handle, but looks harder to clean out the hair.
Great video! I follow a similar routine, yet slightly different regimen. I still pre-condition with olive oil overnight (or 1hr b4 wash if I'm short on time). What a difference, my hair is now ultra-conditioned, and I detangle before I get into the shower. I have fine, dense hair and it's just better for me. Also, Olaplex #1 is designed to go before #3. Its more than a conditioner, it's a bonding treatment. I deep condition after every wash day because it sets/preps my hair to be in best condition. Simplicity I find always wins because I have growth and length retention, so I know I'm doing something right. Ladies stay away from hacks and trends because you will go bald! But lastly, 15yrs natural and not looking back. I'm glad I didn't give up because now I have mastered my natural hair just by trial and error. I'm so very happy that my hair washing has went from 1 whole day to just 2hrs! who would have ever thought??
That is some thick, BEAUTIFUL hair! Great video.
Now you've got a stunning head of hair. I am all about the wash routine too 👏
Ughhh the only wash your scalp trend was insane
Woow!!! Your hair is beautiful 😍
missed you on here, welcome back!
Thank youuu 🫶🏿 good to be back!
Girl I did not know you posted a video today I’m so happy I watched it more natural hair tips for me girl grown out to type four hair tail bone length
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍your hair is so gorgeous!
Love all your videos great info thanks 😍
Beautiful hair and great technique!
Just did and it took one hour! Scalp scrub, washed, conditioned and detangled in one hour. I added 15 min to today’s wash because I wanted the d.c. to penetrate with heat (&i have the extra time 😂) but if it was a weekly wash for me, it would only take an hour. And as you can see we have about the same length, my hair is just a little bit finer. Love you Fola for this babee!!!!
Saved my life as a Mom to a very busy autistic little boy 😊
If you (like me) are watching this for motivation to wash your hair, I see you.
Love this! Definitely just got the TPH scalp scrub to add to my wash routine! Also please add your YT handle in your video titles so it’s easier to search your videos. I was having a hard time finding this video again.
Washing only your scalp is useful if you have a condition like eczema since the special shampoo is too harsh and damages your ends.
We in the community do a conditioner coat on our ends to help while shampooing too.
That shower is life.
Love this❣️once u stop doing too much it’s like life gets easier and ur hair gets longer lol I definitely agree with these tips
Lol watching this made me thankful that I didn’t listen to the natural hair community. Not because I know better but I was way too lazy 😅 luckily my hair is still thriving, retaining length and all. I was even too lazy to do rice water and thank God because turns out I’m low porosity with already good protein levels due to diet.
I'll be trying this❤️
Have ❤you tried the RevAir hair dryer. I bought it. I won’t look back. It’s so marvelous.
Girl it takes me an hour to wash my hair too! My secret that I’m willing to share is I cleanse my scalp the day before with sulfur 8 shampoo I exfoliate it in and leave it on overnight, the next morning I rinse it out and then I focus on only my strands. My hair is already divided in 4 sections so I wash each section of hair and deep condition for 15 minutes. 😂 I’m really a lazy natural.
Wait, you leave the shampoo in overnight?
How long is your hair
This is a beautiful head of hair!
lol yes i will be using allll these tips!
Your hair routine is very similar to mine and I have very little breakage as well. I don't blow dry it but everything else is the same. ❤️
Gorgeous! 😍
I subscribed after you said wash the shaft of your hair❤❤❤
You’re absolutely gorgeous🤍🤍
Omg……that hair😍
The intro was giving 😂😂😂
Hair type: Beautiful, rich and voluminous.❤
Your haiirrr😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you!!!!! ❤
Omg you should try the revair
No yea, I used to detangle my twa and it would take me almost an hour just to prdetangle but I started keeping up a routine and now I seperate my hair into 3 sections and I wash the back and the 2 sides the same way I style my wash n go now and it take me 25 minutes to now shampoo, detangle and condition and detangle. I use a paddle wet brush for detangling
Hey Love how did you get your hair to look so natural and do you have an natural hair care journey.
Love it
I couldn't believe when you said you don't get breakage. I ALWAYS get breakage. Especially when blowdrying 😭 I've tried soo many things
I used beeswax for my box braids and it took me more than one wash day to shampoo off my stands
your hair is beautiful!! what do you think of Ogx? And could you review it? Thanks!
I love it
I'd steal your hair if I could. Watch out!! You never know where or when we might meet 👀😂😂
Here I was thinking I was the only person who cuts the bottle to get the remaining product. And I have locs and I also wash my hair from root to tip, I moisturize the length of my hair with oil so it only makes sense to wash the length of the hair too
Absolutely Beautiful Head of Healthy Hair
What brand of dryer and comb attachment do you use?
Ur hair isn’t all over the bathroom, cause you properly detangled it and got out all the shed hair 😂 I love the Felicia leatherwood brush
I wasn’t talking about shedding sis i was talking about breakage
Exactly. You should lose hair daily
God I wish I found you sooner!!!
You really remind me of Mary J Blige! 😍
How often do you wash your hair?
Ola bom dia euu sou do Brasil
Seu cabelo é lindo quanto tempo levou pra ele chegar desse tamanho ?
Only shampooing your roots is not something only the natural hair community perpetuated. That’s something that is recommended by a lot of haircare professionals. There is even a popular dermatologist here on TH-cam that recommended this. Not saying debating on if it works on not I just wanted to correct when people tend to falsely accuse the natural hair community of things.
Wait a minute I can apply leave in out the shower, I dont need water?
heyy x
Under this new routinre, what do you do to maintain/hydrate your natural hair throughout the week when you're wearing it out? I also watched the video with Camille and I just want to say thank you so much for this life-changing content... My hair has been the same length for years and it would get dry so quicky, sis was doing the LOC method more than once a week. Can't wait to try out this new routine!
Hey sis! I actually don’t do anything. Staying on top of a routine keeps my hair hydrated in between washes. I will say i get better moisture retention sleep with a satin scarf/bonnet/pillowcase. & i let the steam from the shower kinda “refresh” my wash n go if it’s shrunken or something. But in general i dont have the need to re wet or re apply product at any point in between washes

@@folahontas Thank you for the response! And this makes me happy cos I'm about to save so much money, oh my gosh
My mom loves telling me to clean the bathroom after I do my hair like I get it 😂 I get it
Same!!
Yr beautiful and yr hair. How long did it take to get yr hair that length
would you be able to film a detailed wash and go? I have been trying to do them and I feel like everything looks good while wet and then when dry i'm like eh. looking for realistic expectations.
I have an IG reel & TikTok that breaks it down but ill write that down for TH-cam - instagram.com/folahontas/guide/natural-hair-tips/17956562816052805/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=
Beautiful
OK sooooooo first thing I have to do is wash all of my hair. Not just the roots. Also I don't usually take very long but I think less is more so ill just shampoo and condition unless my hair is in bad shape. Usually I condition first cuz it's easier to detangle then I shampoo then I deep condition but I use the 5 minutes and rinse ones.
How often do u blow dry ur hair?
Ths is the best hair video I’ve seen. I’ve been natural for 7 years and I never thought to wash my hair strands until recently when I noticed a bunch of split ends. I literally agree w Everythng you did. Lmfao
Are you telling me you’ve only been washing your scalp and not your actual hair this whole time? 🥴
@@SnapszDuhh no girl the shampoo would run down and I’d LIGHTLY rub through it. Not thoroughly tho. Please don’t judge someone for learning & not being aware of somethng.
You might want to get a clarifying shampoo and double cleanse, you could follow up with your regular shampoo to get rid of buildup to reset your hair. Then you could use the clarifying shampoo when necessary.
@@bbappzz98 thank you! I appreciate the positive feedback & help. I’ve been doing my hair routine every week. I thnk I’ll do every 2 weeks going forward so it’s not being touched so much. 💕💞
@@Prettypaws778 every week might train it better to wash and go! And keep it hydrated
I get soooooo much breakage blow drying my hair lol, hair ends up all over me, the floor, the ceiling, just EVERYWHERE LOL
It may not be the blow dryer. You may have protein overload, may need a trim, or your hair needs to be hydrated. However, it may be the blow dryer. I do want to try that Dyson, but it’s so expensive
that hair dryer is to die for. is it worth it?
Hair porosity?
😍😍😍😍😍
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
The slow mo bits 🤭💀
I'm new to your channel
How do you prevent breakage?
Keep the hair moisturized dont let it dry out. The drier it is the easier it is to succumb to breakage especially with lots of manipulation (combing, brushing, various styles). Also using strengthening treatments like the one I was using (Olaplex #3) helps
😍😍😍😍😍😍
What will stop hair breakage when shampooing
You’re probably overdue for a trim
Wash ya legs ! Lol I'm dead
