  • You reviewed all the conditioners I was debating! Thank you!

  • Hi Lei

    Hair looking great. Are you going to the Afro Hair & Beauty Show in Islington? I haven't been in years and I'm actually thinking of going this year. They should have a section relating to natural hair and also innovative styles for other hair types.

  • @JackyHapy Hey hun, I actually don't know about that! I'm actually too busy with my studies right now to go there but do let me know what its like! =]

  • Hi Lei,

    Really love your hair! It is coming along so nicely. You mentioned not using Giovanni's shampoo anymore? Are you still using Giovanni Smooth as Silk Conditioner? And what are you using for shampoo now?

  • @kaybee456 yes I love all the giovanni shampoo's apart from the spray in leave in conditioner. The shampoos ok but I can't use it all the time because it dries my hair out! I still use the shampoo though!

  • LOVE THE HAIR which miss jessies product did you use and could you plz do a tutorial

  • @jassymae1 hey hun, the tutorials done, I posted it as a video response to this one if you haven't already seen it =]

  • Hi thanks for the vid. You hair looks fab!! What is the instrumental music in the background? Who is it by?

  • @strictlystarlight thanks so much! The music is from my Apple Mac Pro :)

  • Lie why don't you try blending avacodo (the ones u'll get in Asda, Tesco..etc), coconut milk, olive oil and another oil ( I use aloe vera or shea oil) and use in your hair after wash place plastic cap on for a minimum of 30 mins, I usallykeep mines overnight....its an excellent dc & I've been transitioning 7 months now

  • @TiaMariaT that a good tip I'll give it a go, thanks for the suggestion! :)

  • Hey missy your hair is looking really fabulous! I am glad you have found a good dc. I feel i have stumbled upon one of my own staple dc and it isn't a brand i see a lot. Isn't it great weather we have been having :) had to change up my routine too and a trim always makes my hair feels fab esp when i it tangles like crazy and ends feel rough all the time. I notice i need a trim every 3 months it seems. Tht Black Giovanni lol!

  • @TheNaprika thanks hun good to hear from you :) It's been fantastic I'm so happy with it! Yes I may be in need of a lil trim, it comes when you have your hair out I think! lol at the end, you have to be all PC online and stuff lol

  • Have you tried the Curls Hair Ecstasy Deep Conditioner? My hair seems to really like this it and my hair seems similar to yours although where I live the weather is quite the opposite of London.

  • @pgwats no I've never tried before, where are you from?

  • Your hair looks absolutely amazing. Please tell us what you did to get this look.

  • @pgwats it's a braid out and thank you! I'll do an update video soon :)

  • Looking good doll.

    For a deep conditioner,I recommend trying Dark and Lovely's

    Cholestrol Conditioner with Panthenol...I Luv IT!!!!!!!!

    Not sold in the U.S. anymore so I went on ebay and ordered

    some from...guess where???...The U.K...If it's in stores there get it.

    If not you can order it from ebay.....Try it....it's not expensive(only 5 or 6 dollars)....it does not disappoint....

  • @prowoman thanks hun! imagine that, usually it's the other way round!! LOL I'll look out for it! :)

  • your hair look amazing!

  • @MsGoldenCoils thanks so much hun! :)

  • Awww u look super cute. Can't wait til my hair gets that length. Is it a mini twist out?

  • @GoldenNapptural it's a braid out! and thanks so much! You'll be there in no time! :)

  • Have u tried SheaMoisture masque?

  • @NursePeaches07 nope but I've heard some good things about it :)

    Do you have 3a 4a hair because Mines looks like yours just shorter, i dont make videos. But I love watching yours

    Thank you for sharing i been wanting to try the bee mines so this helped

  • @naturalNurgee Thanks hun!! it's mainly 4 I'd say as it's very thick! the middle of my hair may possibly be one of the 3's as its looser lol. I hope that you find some things that work for you! :)

  • Lei, your hair looks GORGEOUS! I'm jealous... ;-p

  • @SimplYounique thanks Kerry!! Finally I'm getting better! and no way, I look to you for whats hot with hair!! ;)

  • Lei, your hair looks really nice and healthy....it is coming along. I hear you about maintaining moisture....I have the same problem and I guess it is all trial and error. If I may suggest try Qhemet Biologics Amla and Olive Heavy Cream.....it really does work amazingly to moisturize the hair.

  • @prncessbern thanks for the suggestion, I will check it out! :)

  • You know I trimmed my ends and the dry feeling went away. The products in my arsenal continue to work. I just needed to get rid of those ends. My hair has never felt better!

  • @Zaharam2 yep maybe I need to let go too!! :)

  • Your hair looks AWESOME :) Great Vid

  • @mzbonitap thanks so much :)

  • I totally agree with your review of Aubrey Organics Honeysuckle Rose. I felt exactly the same way about it.

  • @PreciousCurls I'm not alone then :)

  • Hey Lei, have you tried using organics root stimulator replenishing conditioner? I've been using that about two years now and haven't looked back since! lol. I mix mine with a little coconut oil and deep condition for at least an hour. Works every time! x

  • @mzcellaneous OMG! It is my favorite conditioner as well! The best thing is that a bottle only cost around $6! I often add it to conditioners that don't have enough slip or enough oil.

  • @Zaharam2 You know it! lol. I'm not sure how much $6 is in pounds, but it is really reasonable to buy! Glad you feel the same way! :)

  • @mzcellaneous I havent used that for the longest time! I used to use it when my hair was texturised, havent really used it since, maybe I could give it another try? :)

  • Hey Leilei, your curls..love it!!! Maybe you can try Anita Grants Rassoul dc ,or just the Rassoul clay mixt with coconut milk that works wonders on my hair!! x

  • @CatchingPiecesOfMe thanks so much and thanks for the tip :)

  • Hair looks great

  • @anissa4334 thank you! :)

  • I'm thinking about trying the caramel treatment as a deep conditioner, I've heard good things about it and you can find the recipe here on youtube. its suppose to be very moisturing

  • @expresso35 That sounds interesting, I'm gonna look that one up!

  • wow Leilei, i am loving your hair here, it is fab!!! i didn't care much for the bee mine DC either, my hair didn't feel soft afterwards, felt kind of pouffy and dry. awweeee, i love the AO honey suckle rose and GPB, i am always repurchasing those! gosh your hair is so long, almost same length as mine and i am a good 7 months ahead of you! always want to try that JessiCurl DC, always hesitate though. Try Crown Pride Naturals Tucuma Hair Mask, i promise you will love it, and their avocado detan-

  • @louloumatou (2) - gling conditioner is my number one right now, i am thinking about getting the 32oz tub, i also use it as a DC and it has so much slip!! well, next time you feel like spending on your hair, do give them a try, i think you will like them. Have a great week! xx

  • @louloumatou lol thank you!! slip is so important to me so that always helps! I'll defo keep them in mind for future reference :)

  • Lee your hair has made great progress, you look awesome!

  • @chanz0712 thanks so much hun! :)

  • I was only half listening, because you and your hair look beautiful in this video. AWESOME BRAIDOUT!! Had to watch again, tee hee

  • @MlleCafeAuLait thank you miss! I'm getting better YEA!!:)

  • You look so pretty!!!! Your hair is georgous!!!!! What prouct did you use to braid your hair?

  • @kittybaby900 thanks hun! I used Miss Jessies and Eco Styler Gel

  • i wonder if it's because of the hard water we have in the UK why some of these products don't work as well for us , i know exactly what you mean when washing out these conditioners

  • @3jdixon could be you know! Maybe I need to filter my shower water LOL

  • Adding heat can only dry out already dry hair. also watch your sulfates and silcone agents. These can also be drying. 5. Deep Condition like your hair life depends on it. 6. My two favorite youtubers for hair is Kimmaytube and Naptural85. Kim has had the same consistent no nonsense regimen for 2 years and her healthy hair and hair growth is a testament to her discipline. Nap is all natural girl. Her recepies for deep cond. and homemade flax seed hair gel, are bar none the best.

  • @mediamamachick the shampoo I use is Giovanni which is sulfate free. I'll only use a sulfate shampoo if I completely run out which was more of a problem in the colder months! Ill check out that recepiem thanks for that!

  • your hair is really pretty

  • @colasy1 thanks so much hun :)

  • Lei.. thumbs up on the hair. Um.. just a bit of advice though. 1..afro kinky hair is always dry. 2..there are varying degrees of dry and "my hair is like straw" 3..you can't and won't know this leap frogging form one product to the next. Something works and you like it. STICK WITH IT. 4. Follow those on youtube who have consistent regimen, hair growth and hair that doesn't look busted. 4. blowdry and use heat AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE. I'm adding this tid bit because u stated your hair feels dry.

  • @mediamamachick I have been using the same products for months and my hair has felt fine. It has become progressively drier at the ends, I rarely use heat on my hair, less then once a month! The last time the ends of my hair felt like this I trimmed them and it was fine. I wondered if a deep conditioner would change things this time around though soon as I don't have split ends, would be a shame to cut my hair if I dont need to!

  • your hair looks great in this video!

  • @GenesisNatural thanks so much :)

  • Love your lioness mane :-D...Thank you for sharing. Your hair looks so healthy.

    -Canela

  • @canela0814 :D thank you!!!

  • im syill searching for staples

  • @LoveChrissiPoo hopefully you'll find what your looking for soon :)

  • Hey Chica!!!...you hair looks GREAT!!!

  • @curlymo01 Thanks so much!! :)

  • LEI!!! what have you done to your hair?? YOUR....HAIR....IS .....BANGING!! O! M! G! your hair looks marvelous ...is that a twist out? braid out? wash and go? details and tutorial please ~~ your adoring subbies (meaning my nosy ass!) have got to know

  • @MISSDEEDEVINE1 thanks hun! it's a braid out and to think that I wasnt 100 per cent impressed because of the frizz! I'll show you what I did thanks for request LOL :)

  • I think that's what its called..it's wheat something) and it is actually a type of protein (so I've heard..might want to research that). Try being protein free for a month and see if it makes a difference in the dryness.

  • @haffilvgrls yes I'll give it a go thank you :)

  • Loving your hair, simply beautiful!! With your conditioners that you reviewed today, check your ingredients and see if there is any protein in them. There might be a chance that you could be protein sensitive. Like the Giovanni smooth as silk has protein but the 50/50 does not. Also some of the bee mine products have it as well. With the Aubrey organics, it has wheat germ oil (

  • @haffilvgrls Thats a great point, I never really pay attention to proteins at all so I will have a look at that thanks! :)

  • Your hair looks amazing! I love the way it looks love it.

  • @jojojen1 wow thanks so much!! :)

  • have you tried doing natural homemade remedies in your hair as a deep conditioner

  • @NaturallyIzzy no only as a leave in, I used to experiment with diff kinds of oils when I first went natural but I wouldn't mind trying to make a new conditioner. If you have any suggestions please let me know :)

  • love the curls!

  • @NaturallyIzzy thank you :)

  • Great video your hair looks really nice. What shampoo do you use?

  • @ykaa79 thanks hun, I use Giovanni Tea Tree sulfate free shampoo!

  • Wow, your hair looks freaking amazing dear.

  • @xineotheoneix wow thanks hun :)

  • make your own deep conditioner! that is the BEST!!

  • @shondrae12 It's about time I did that again for fun if anything! Any suggestions? I'd love to hear them :)

  • @LeiLei08 AVACADO DEEP CONDITIONER

    Avocados contain vitamin B6 & vitamin E

    The Ingredients

    1 small jar of real mayonnaise

    1/2 of an avocado

    The Instructions

    Put together in a medium bowl and squish together with your hands until it's a minty green color. Smooth into hair all the way to the tips. Put on a shower cap or wrap your head in a towel. Leave on for 20 minutes. For deeper conditioning put a hot, damp towel around your head.

  • beautiful hair!!

  • @shondrae12 thanks so much!

  • Your hair looks super nice!!

  • @1ballerina thank you! I'm finally beginning to experience some of the drop that you were talking about do it's creating more of a shape now rather then sticking out so I'm happy :)

  • @LeiLei08 Yes it is getting heavier. It will continue to drop and you will think your curls are changing, but it is just that the curls are getting longer and heavier and they start to look and act different as a result. All the lengths and stages of curly hair are wonderful!

  • @1ballerina yes I am beginning to notice a difference in my curls even when I wash my hair and there is no product in it. I am definately enjoying the results much more now though, I know I'll enjoy it much more in future!

  • @LeiLei08 :-D

  • Your hair looks sooo pretty! Next time, try putting one braid right in the centre of your hair so there'll be less parting in the back.

  • @gggrinz yes I was thinking the same thing when watching this, great suggestion I'll defo do that next time :) and thank you!

  • @LeiLei08 No problem. Hey, do you use Sweet Almond Oil or Bitter Almond Oil? What's the difference, do you know?

  • Oh wow! Your hair looks great!!!!  And it's grown so much! Love it!

  • @CurlyCrazyfulLeah Thanks Leah! yea I'm making progress :)

  • Your Really Gorgeous God Bless <3

  • @h4lyf thanks so much hun I bet you are too! :)

  • I'm loving your hair! It's beautiful!

  • @SeptembersFyre Thanks so much :)

  • Great review. Your hair looks great.

  • @TheNaturalmystery Thank you :)

  • Your hair looks fantastic!!

  • @heavenwardbound Thank you!! :)
