This statement is not a discouragement against trying it. However, should you not like the turn out, there is nothing I can do. You are more than welcome to leave your feedback, good or bad. This video was an experiment that worked for me so I decided to share it with you all. Not everyone will have the same experience. I AM NOT A LICENSED HAIR PROFESSIONAL.

So this is my virgin hair. I haven't worn it in over six months and it looks like well it's a mess, so I'm going to revive my virgin hair using the boiling method, olive oil and a leave-in conditioner of my choice, which is shea butter. I really love that stuff. It smells so good. So once my water boils, you want to put it by hair inside of the dab or so of olive oil into the water just enough to get it to penetrate the water so that you can get some oil onto your hair. What I like to do is I get a spoon to mix it around, because you know oil and water don't really mix. But if you mix it up, some you can break those bubbles up so that when you put your hair in the oil will penetrate your hair. All right next take conditioner, not too much yeah just got a change of colors on you. It'S like you're, making a big stretch, be really careful because it's really hot. I have my high heat, because you know my hair to get soft just because I'm loving the way this mixture is turning up and now I'm gon na turn the heat down some and you want to put your first bundle in for me. It will be this right here. I believe this is 18. Inches, looks really crazy. So after I do all of my bundles, you don't let the hair sit for too long. You can do about 10 to 15 minutes, maybe even a little bit less, and then you make sure you turn the fire off. First before you take the ham out, let it cool down, take the hair out and then move on to the next step. Another great tip I want to mention is to make sure you do this by the bundle so throw all your 18-inch tracks in at the same time and put all your 22 20. You know 24 put all those animate separately, but together by bundle, because you don't want to mix up cheese, hair and get off with use about. What'S what and you know, hair looks longer when it's wet, so you just got to be really careful me. Okay, guys we're moving the hair can be kind of tricky because it's extremely hot. So what I have here is a towel placed up against the counter, and this is what I'll clip the hair in, and I have some songs because it's better to grab the hair. Like this, then they use your hand or the spoon I was using to mix everything in with. You want to be really careful because it's hot and don't forget to turn the fire off. First, wait a couple and then once you start, you grab the hair and if you see a couple of tracks hanging out, you grab it by the track and you just kind of drip drip drip, drip it and you put it in your tile. That should be stealing hot, really hot. One interesting thing I want to know that happened is that all of the dye I had on the ends of my hair. It'S gone now and I don't know if this will happen with anybody else, and I just did an at-home dye job on these. So at first day, where I'm buried right here, you can see that it's blonde again but as I previously shown, it was red. If I show you a bundle, that's a bit longer that I haven't done yet it's got some red in there and when I dyed it I mean boiled it all. The dye ran off, which is really interesting and I guess under extreme heat, the guy couldn't stick to the strands of hair. So now it's just blonde again, which gives me free rein to do. I guess whatever I want with it now. You know whatever color. I wanted, I thought it was gon na have to be red again, but there is a no more red on the hair, which is really cool. I guess, but if you can see, kind of the water is ready which means hit and ran off. So after I boil the rest of my bundles, it would be time to move on to the drying process and the overnight conditioning process, and once we do that, then we'll be all set alright guys. These are the things you'll need for the drying process. So obviously the hair - you just boil a blow-dryer, a comb and some leave-in conditioner, and I have my cancer once again because I love that stuff. So what's gon na happen now is I'm going to separate the bundles and I'm going to blow dry them and then after I blow dry them, I'm going to hang them up to dry with the leave-in conditioner on them and that's been hey guys. So this is the hair. After it's been boiled and left to dry overnight, it's very soft and bouncy up and he told his hair. I braid this hair up. I do aircraft, you know I do whatever I want to this hair. Be careful because, like I said before, the guy, who will run off its a semi-permanent rinse, I'm not sure about if there's a permanent rinse if the hair begins to feel dry, just take the oil any favorite moisturizer of yours and run it through your hair. Just a dime size don't do too much, because then the hair will become close and it would just be bad Russian daily wrap it up at night. Just so. No couple tips. This hair, with this method, will work on Yankee bullwhip on Remy, because the long as the hair can bake heat in this method won't work, I'm not sure about synthetic hair, but it might work too. No, it's just hair. If you liked this video like and subscribe and I'll, see you next time, next video is going to be a win review. A lot of people ask me: is this product any good if it works for African American women or if it even works on hair in general, so next week I'll be doing a review on wind speed on the mint cleansing, conditioner and I'll. Tell you if I like it or not into the pros and cons of it, see you next time.

pinkporche04: I love us black women. We find a way for anything lol. I'm super happy I found this video. Ps. Are some of you not familiar with dipping your braids in hot water?
qwaneasia: Daughter: mommy, mommy, what's for dinner? Me: BUNDLES BABY. Daughter: how does that taste mommy? Me: UNBEWEAVEABLE!!! and BUNDELICIOUS!!!
Elly Diego: I like putting a protein treatment and coconut oil on my wet extensions and the putting in a ziplock and microwaving for 1 minute works great as well! let cool for a few hours or leave over night to cool. helps seal the cuticle down when it cools and locks in the protein .
Celestial Chef: Class A YouTuber. You should have 100,000+ subscribers bec you're not only informative, but respectful enough of your viewers to reply to their questions. Great job & thanks for sharing.
Mandy Kaslee: Tried this tonight. I’m impressed with the softness, shine and silkiness. I hope it stays that way forever ❤️❤️
Roshelle Daniels: Thank you for the tips.I actually boiled my synthetic wig a month ago and let it sit in fabric softener for 45 mins and it actually made a difference.Its super soft and manageable now.
Jessica M.: Oh my God. Thank you! Thank you! I was wearing these cheap extensions from Amazon and I didn't plan to reuse them but I saw your video and thought I might as well give this a shot and if it doesn't work out I was just going to toss these extensions anyway... Well guess what? They are usable once again. You saved me some bucks. Thank you again!
Debbie Roches: OMG I am in so much shock , this works so good. I just did differently I let the water boil until it was hot, but before I use a different type of oil, an coconut conditioner. Afterward I cut it off let it set for about 5 min to cool off then gently dipped my hair in until it was fully submerged. It was gorgeous. I ran an got 2more out of my closet an tried them beautiful. Thank you so much. You are a life saver.
Nzuri Malaika: Wish I could post a picture. HUNTY. My wig wasn't even in all that bad condition. But after I did this. It's so silky and the texture looks beautiful. Life saver
I Am Beebe Love: great idea. Just so you know, olive oil removes color from the hair. You can actually use it full strength and leave in over night and lighten hair without heat.
MimiDicious: The red didn't stick because heat opens the hair scales, where the color is to be found. :) red is the hardest color to have and maintain :) Red is soooo nice, but such a pain! To keep your red color longer (or any color for that same matter) you'll always have to rinse it with lukewarm water, so the scales won't open up as much due to heat and the color remains a little longer... and top it off with a conditioner; this closes the scales/shaft and keeps the color inside the hair. Don't forget to mention, a lovely soft finish! Happy weaving :D
Strands Galore & More: The color removed itself because the hot water opened up the hair shaft which is where the color lives! I would suggest after letting it cool to put conditioner on it, combing it through and rinse with lukewarm/cool water to close the shaft back up and add the moisture in it!
kityenna: me as a wife hey babe what you cooking? oh just my extentions
Shantel Perkins: OMG this worked my bundles I've had for ever looks beautiful and silky!
ItsssErstaunlich: Damn! I should have tried this before throwing my old ones away. Thanks for the tips!!!
Melissa Boomer: I’m doing this right now ! I hope it turns out good :) thank you !!
Maliaka Browhaw: Thank you for this video! I was driving home from work thinking I should boil my hair so I can reinstall it. Got on YT and found you. Much appreciated!!
Roxanne: So do you think if you let the water cool down completely and leave the extensions in for a day or so, the hair will reabsorb the hair color? I want to revive my extensions, but I don't want to lose the semipermanant dye that's on them!
She Says: Wow okay, this is the only thing that has actually worked for me so far. Dryness came back after about 2 days but my extensions are old and I do wear them everyday (don't sleep in them though). This is technically a high heat on the hair though so does it have any long term damaging effects?
Bright Reflexsun: I don't wear weave anymore but I swear this is very creative and innovative. Thumbs up to you for your creativity.
senpaisplash ツ: mine is so damaged and old and tangled. Thank you! I will eventually do this method and update (:
Esther Love: How long does this last for ?
Stratton Lynise: The dye came off because holding the water opens the hair shaft, and it soked in the water so yes that will happen permanent or rinse. But with a perminent might just fade. So the color won't be as loud as it originally was.
Having Tea With the Devil: Thank you. I bought some hair that was still generally good. Still smooth, wasn’t ratty when i took it out. It was generally good. I just need to bring it back to life real quick lol.
MikaToy Touson: How Long Does The Hair Have To Boil ???
