Let'S just get straight into this video. If you haven't seen the first installment I'm going to link in the top right corner, so you can watch it prior to watching this video or after just let it open up in another window. Now, of course, before we start, please don't forget to do these four simple things be sure to thumbs up this video. It lets you to know you enjoy this type of content comment down below. Let me know your thoughts share. Your ideas with me ask your questions. Be sure that also share this video with your friends and your loved ones and last, but never ever least subscribe to my channel and turn on your notifications. So you know every time I post a new video. Okay, let's get right into it if you're not already make sure you're following me on instagram via epic design, es I K, Z or aren't there. You can see all my lovely pics and interact with me and be sure to also follow me on twitter via FX. I became EF, i k za ra there. I taught you all. I share my thoughts and we're gon na be doing a lot of Giveaways very soon, so stay tuned girl. I love you this video. Is it question? I don't have a sensitive or itchy scalp. Usually, I'm thinking to use your tea tree and water concoction, the Shea Moisture low porosity can dish which truly is the best and do grow hair grease. Do you think it's still worth adding in the sulfur 8 as extra scalp protection, or will the remainder of your routine? Suffice again, love you uh-huh! So if you don't have any scalp issues, I personally don't think you need to seek out a grease. That'S dedicated to scalp health um, but you might consider using it because sulfur has some growth properties, so I mean that's a reason why you could use it, but actually, if you really don't have any scalp issues, if your scalp is not dry, then you probably shouldn't Be putting anything on it that probably means that it's producing enough sebum and if you put anything on it, could actually upset your scalp and aggravate it so scratch that don't put anything on your scalp. If you don't have scalp issues, if you're not suffering from the dryness, if you don't have dandruff, if you don't have dry, scalp and itchiness, please what do you edit your videos with? Do you advise grease on hair, even in the winter, I actually advise grease on hair, more often in the winter, because the winter is very cold and typically very dry. So you want to make sure that you're sealing the moisture in and protecting your hair from nature. Like really that's just it now in the winter, I can't even leave my hair out. That'S how much my hair dislikes winter. I need to tuck my hair completely away. If you insist on wearing your hair in some capacity, grease is going to do a lot to protect your hair and ultimately prevent splits and breakage for much longer than your average sealant. So scalp and hair health questions, green heart or another green emoji, the heading - and let me know what else you want to ask down below: let's help each other out, if you have anything to share with anybody, please do that. Also, many people are telling me that oiling my scalp is good, while others are telling me to leave my scalp alone. What should I do to help my hair? That'S actually a great question. Now it's kind of a trick instruction because oiling and/or greasing your scalp is good and bad. It really depends upon your own scalp environment. So if your scalp is dry chances are you need to apply some water and slap, some grease or some oil on that scalp? On me, and while you can do that ASAP, if your scalp is oily already, please do not put anything on it. It will upset your scalps natural sebum balance and cause you lots of issues. It'S like trying to use an oil or a very occlusive moisturizer on oily skin. If you have oily skin, you want to use something lightweight on your skin. If you have dry skin, you want to use something very heavy to keep your skin hydrated. It'S a similar principle and, of course your scalp is skin. So why wouldn't the same apply to your scalp? Do you think Greece is better for mixed hair? I used Greece on my daughter's hair when she was young and her hair was in better condition than it is now. She says that Greece is too heavy, but her hair is dry and breaks off so not growing very much so y'all. I put a disclaimer on that video, basically stating that I have obviously changed my opinion now. I was not necessarily wrong in that video because, if you're using petroleum jelly products improperly, then your hair is going to suffer. But if you're properly moisturizing your hair prior to applying petrolatum, then your hair is going to be super hydrated for a longer period of time. So it's really up to you whether or not you want to use Greece. I personally am agree Stan at this point. I cannot live without Greece, it's a staple in my regimen, but if you do decide to use Greece, please ensure that your hair is properly washed. Conditioned deep condition, treated, moisturized, etc. Prior to applying the grease. That'S extremely important now drop that purple emoji, and that is grease for me. If you still have questions as to whether or not grease is indeed for you can. I use grease on 4c low porosity hair, simple answer. Yes, my hair is low porosity. My hair is Type four use that grease honey-bunny use. It so use it to your heart's content. It'S going to help the moisture stay in your hair for much longer. It'S great he's our thanks for this. I have high porosity fine, 4c hair, that's prone to tangles, especially when I shampoo. I see that you recommend grease, but you have low porosity hair. You also use sulfate shampoos, which I find to be very drying. Could you recommend a hair routine for me, please Thanks. It'S Greece good for a high porosity hair. Now these are actually really great questions and to answer as concisely as possible. Yes, Greece is phenomenal for high porosity hair. Now let me tell you why high porosity hair is obviously more susceptible to relinquishing moisture, because the cuticle is more porous really. Grease is really beneficial because it's highly occlusive and the more grease you add, the more occlusive it becomes. So if you're using a product like Greece, you're guaranteed pretty much to keep the moisture in your hair for a much longer time now, if you have high porosity hair, I highly recommend you watch my regimen building video I've probably already linked it in the cards in The top right, but if I haven't it, will be lean check that out, so you can figure out how to build your own regimen, because that video applies to everyone, including people with highly porous hair people with relaxed hair people with natural hair, etc, etc, etc. I'M just going to give you a quick regimen in this video. Now, if I had high porosity hair - Oh probably cleanse with castile soap, castile soap could be very, very mild and it's not as stripping and it can be diluted very easily. I might also cleanse with maybe a sulfate free shampoo. I like Shea moistures black soap - shampoo, that's really really great. I love that and it's quite moisturizing or a moisturizing shampoo. So there are some options: if you're having trouble keeping moisture in your hair while you're cleansing it. Now when it comes to moisturizing, I would probably use myopia natural, which I already use, because it's pH balanced. You want something that's going to actually close the cuticle as much as possible and make your hair less porous. So that's really going to help and I probably use a thicker moisturizer, something that's also going to fill in the cuticle. Now also, protein treats more often probably on a weekly or bimonthly basis, and I would use a really occlusive grease now. I specifically use a grease that has protein in it again to help fill my cuticle hair. That is highly porous or hair, there's more normal porosity. Those hair types really really love protein and protein is super beneficial. If you have highly porous hair now, you can check out my products, video if you have high porosity hair, because there are some products that I use that are also really phenomenal for high porosity hair. Now, if you guys want a video, let me know, because I have enough knowledge about hair, to make a video on what would work for high porosity hair and my sister her hair. I don't think it's high porosity, but it is normal porosity, so products that work for her don't work for me and products that she uses would most likely benefit high porosity hair. So let me know now, if you do want a high porosity, hair video drop, a white emoji down below feel free to also include your questions, so we can further this discussion if hair Cree is only good for type 4 hair, I have 3c curls and I Really want to try it, but I'm scared that it might be too heavy. Would you recommend for me to use the Duke Omega thick hair grease on 3b 3c hair? I'M scared. It will weigh. My hair down is grease okay for frizzy hair. Now grease is great for pretty much any hair type if your hair straighter, it's probably not gon na - be back up your hair um, because I'd imagine that your scalp produces a bit of sebum and it's able to move down the hair chef. Also, there's that to consider and if your hair straighter a lighter product like an oil, would probably be better or mineral oil, but grease is ultimately good for all curly to kinky hair type. The type of grace you use is dependent upon your hair type as a whole, so your curl pattern will likely accept grease, but you need to determine what's going to not weigh down your hair, what's going to actually seal in the moisture, what's not going to cause Breakage or make your hair feel greasy, you know what I mean so with a lot of greases, they have lights alternatives, there's a light version of the sulfur 8 there's a light version of the duke grow and I'm sure that there's a light version of blue magic And other types of grease, so if your hair is a looser texture, then you should probably be used a lighter version of a grease. If you want the same benefit and of course, if you're not heavy-handed, you should get the same benefits of grease without the greasy feeling, I'm 3 B, 3 C hair. If your hair is course, that is if the circumference of your hair is larger than I would say that you can use Duke Omega thick. But if you have fine hair strength and you should probably use the Duke grow light and I'm going to link both in the description box down below well, ultimately, grease is fine for frizzy hair. Again, I think that the type of grease one is going to use is more dependent upon the thickness of each hair strand, not so much the curl pattern or the density of the hair. Do you think Greece is better for mixed hair? I used to grease on my daughter's hair when she was young and her hair was in better condition than it is now. She says that Greece is too heavy, but her hair is dry and breaks off so not growing. Very much. Now that's a bit of a loaded question because, though I understand we are coming from, I feel like it can be misconstrued, because hair on biracial or multiracial people is pretty much all across the board. You can be biracial black and white and literally have 4c hair. If it's kinkier than mine, so I mean, I think that we should bear that in mind. But ultimately, I think what this person is asking is about a certain type of texture that is typically perceived as mixed hair. So maybe a silkier hair texture with a looser curl pattern, and I would say ultimately yes, if you saw that your daughter's hair was successful and thriving with grease usage. And now it's like a hot mess. Then probably yes, I mean the proof is in the pudding right and you have your own anecdote to prove that Greece was working well for her hair. So I think that you could go back to it if she feels it's too heavy. You may be switched to a lighter alternative, so a light version of the Greece that you were using previously. You could also try a mineral oil which is a liquid by-product of the crude oil refining process. So that's a great alternative to petroleum jelly in the events that the petroleum jelly is too heavy for your hair, it's as occlusive as petroleum, jelly and more occlusive than oil. Now, if you have questions or comments regarding looser textures and grease, please drop a brown heart or another brown emoji down below and comment whether you guys experienced with grease and relaxed hair. What about greasing my scalp with keratin treated hair? We are not supposed to use sulfates. I was loved to use grease again for my dry scalp. Well, I mean my head was relaxed back in 2009 and Greece. Greece was my life. Greece made my hair so soft. So I think that Greece is excellent on relaxed time now, if you're trying to press your hair out, obviously you're not going to use no Greece gon na weigh it down. But if you're just like trying to protect your hair, then Greece is phenomenal and my hair was really long when I was relaxed like super long and really pretty so I think Greece is fantastic for relaxed hair. Now when it comes to keratin treated hair. I didn't know: y'all aren't supposed to use whole face, but it makes sense because you don't want the proteins to leave the hair. So I think it's fine to use grief, I mean you can use a soap instead to rinse it out. So I think it's find these Greece to cleanse the hair, definitely use a soap I used. Greece then got cornrows and I plan to leave it on for two weeks, but can i still moisturize my hair in between, because you mentioned earlier that after Greece moisture can't get in and it can't leave either now, if you have cornrows in and you've moisturize your Hair properly and greased your hair and your scalp, you probably won't need to read moisturize it's only two weeks and your hair is already in a position to lose less moisture, especially if your ends are tucked into the corner pattern. So I don't think any remoisturize. Now, if you absolutely want to, I would recommend only remoisturize in your scalp, but you don't need to read moisturize your hair. In my humble opinion, I usually have my hair and braids for a long time, and sometimes I do wash it but it mess it up. I see some people say it's best to wash every two weeks, but if I spray my hair with water and then grease my scalp will that work for a moisture also, how would I wash my hair and braids without it messing up? I plan on keeping kinky twists in my hair for two months. Can I use grease on my scalp during those two months? Won'T that cause buildup. I don't plan on washing my scalp and hair during those two months because I don't wash when I do twists or box braids only when I do cornrows. How do you use grease when you have extensions such as weaves and braids or twists? Personally, I just put one of my scalp: he asked my watering tea tree oil mixture and then I'll grease, my scalp with my sulphur 8 mix or my normal sulfur 8. So y'all can find that video in the cards, but um yeah. I don't like to stress myself: yes, it does cause build-up, I mean you can't really avoid that and your scalp is not gon na be clean, but at least it keeps the itches at bay and keeps my scalp quite healthy, even when it's in the style. Now I haven't left a protective styling for more than two months in a long time. So by the time I take my hair down, my scalp is ready to be deeply cleansed and I'm fine with that um. If I absolutely need to wash my hair when it's in a protective style, if I feel that my scalp is like crying out for help, I definitely will now, if you all want me to make a video on how to do that. Please leave a comment down below and drop a flag emoji. I know we're using lots of emojis I'm a Java flag emoji. If you want that, because that's literally a separate topic but um yeah. That'S how I approach keeping my scalp healthy. While I'm doing protective styles. Now again, you don't have to wash your hair if it's in braids or other protective styles. I think it's easier to wash hair than this movie. I always wash my hair when it's you know weave, but I haven't been a weave in years because at this point I just wear wigs. I, like my scalp, to really be exposed to the air, and I also like to minimize the possibility of having mildew just ravaged my hair and leg out. So I think wigs are the way to go personally yeah when it comes to braids or extensions like that. I don't worry about washing my hair until I remove the strong at hair. Breakage stayed away from Greece and it didn't help started back using blue magic and noticed a difference. I'M going dreads now and don't know what to do. Should I still use Greece since it's been working, oh and go Ravens? How do you use grease on locks? Does it unlock them, or does it build up badly in the locks? How do you clean them, or is it not a good idea? Please help. My locks are so dry, okay, you know what I think: it's fine to use, grease and locks, but it's one of those things. If you're going to use grease in your locks, you definitely have to shampoo your hair and, I think, every once in a while. You need to use a chelating shampoo. That'S super important, that's going to remove every ounce of buildup from your hair and I think that's important for everybody, and I need to find one here in Nigeria that I can use, because my hair needs a good clarify. You know I just need a reset button. Definitely so yeah, I think chelating shampoos are phenomenal and I think that everybody should use them from time to time more. So if you have luck, I don't know about apple, cider, vinegar, rinses and stuff, like that apple, cider, vinegar and baking soda I mean I don't know much about having locks, so I'd have to do research and actually see if that helps, but I'm about things that Are scientifically proven to work so chelating shampoos may be a good sulfate shampoo. If you're, not a fan of sulfates black soap is really really deeply clarifying, especially if you're using the right one. So you might experiment if your locks are very dry, try greens, but make sure moisturize your hair very well prior to using the grease and also again make sure that you're cleansing properly when you're, using something that occlusive does your hair feel greasy? Does it spoil everything? How do you keep your pillow dry at night? How do you keep your pillow from being greasy or having grease and oil stains, or maybe I'm just too heavy-handed? Now, when my hair isn't afro chances? Are I don't have a lot of grease on it? Probably just the very end, and even then I try to keep it light when my hair is in twists. I use a lot of grease, but how do I keep my pillow dry? I like to use a scarf and a bonnet so I'll use my scarf tie that on and I'll use my bonnet and put that over at the scarf. So it actually keeps my pillow quite dry and I don't get any grease or oil stains, because my bonnet is made out of silk. If you're using a silk bonnet chances are, nothing is going to penetrate that bonnet once you tie up your hair, so I think that's a really great way to keep your garments. Your pillows everything soil free when you're using grease. No does my hair feel greasy all not typically because by the time I'm wearing afro or any other loose style, my hair has had time to release it, so the petrolatum, while my hair, is not as difficult to deal with. You know what I mean. Does your hair feel greasy into this? Well everything that's a great question and actually the answer to that would be no because my hair is tucked away 90 % of the time. I really don't wear my hair out unless I'm filming yeah, that's just it yeah. I really can't come and kill myself, so no, my hair doesn't really feel greasy, because when I do wear it out, I tend to be a bit light handed with the grease and then aside from that, I still use my other sealants, which tend to evaporate a Bit more quickly and then, aside from that, when my hair is finally free, the grease has had time to really settle in. So you can't feel it as much if you do touch my hair, okay, y'all.
