[morganthecomedian]

This has nothing to do with hair but I love that picture in the beginning :) haha

[rihannaiscoolfan]

r u sure i should put this in my hair??

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

@rihannaiscoolfan it is your hair, so the decision is yours.

[destiny9blondie]

very informative!! please do a tutorial using the l'oreal moisturizing conditioner!

[HunnieAJ]

is your hair relaxed or natural?

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

@HunnieAJ in this video it was relaxed. I am natural now =) If u nhave questions about relaxed hair, I can still be of assistance. I still take care of relaxed hair.

Thank You For Your Respond .

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

@toobeeme100 welcome =)

[toobeeme100]

when i do this regimine etra virgin oil and honey. once its rinse than i shampoo it out.

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

@toobeeme100 interesting. I dont shampoo it out. i feel like its stripping away what I put in it. i just rinse thoroughly or use conditioner to help rinse it out

[suchaBigKiddo]

awww you jammy my boo thang in the beginning lol...

[layah2sexc]

great video. i also do honey and olive oil prepoo. but now i use room temperature mayonnaise (real mayo) and lots of warm honey mixed and put it on my dry hair, put my plastic cap on and wear it for hours and co-wash it out whenever i don't use shampoo. my hair be so soft and shiny

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

@layah2sexc hm.... thats a good idea! ill try that!

[tay2sims]

@layah2sexc What does it mean to co-wash?



[layah2sexc]

@tay2sims to use conditioners to wash your hair. You hop in the shower and rinse your hair and then poor your favorite conditioner all over your hair and massage it in and let it sit in there for a few minute and then rinse it out and repeat if you want to. Co-washing keeps your hair and scalp clean and moisturize your hair and scalp all at once. you can co wash many days out of the week whenever you don't feel like using shampoo.

[maebae94]

does it make your hair stronger

[pj4kds]

how often shall i do this treatment?

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

@pj4kds

as often as you'd like (or rather often as your hair needs it). I do this treatment at least 2x per month

[CuteHotSweetPie]

@shimmeringshannon1 and she how at like 9 50 her hair looks thick it will not do that when u wash nor blow dry

[shimmeringshannon]

@CuteHotSweetPie, thanks so much, that is what i thought.. about the honey- for curly hair it will probs make it stikky :S

that pink lotion you use.. what is it called ?

if you know please let me know!! thanks for the advice (:

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

honey is sticky yes but thats y u mix it with an oil or water to take down the stickiness. honey is a natural humectant and moisturizer which is better for ur hair than pink lotion

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

huh?

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

my hair is thick. i dont blow dry my hair, i always air dry, and my hair was washed =)

[CuteHotSweetPie]

@shimmeringshannon1  With curly hair i know this is not my vid but what i use on a daily basis is some just for me pink lotion it will make ur hair so soft and and shiny and MOSTIREIZED i personally wouldont use this because honey is sticky i wont have enogh time but i have curly hair too so try it it really works !!!!

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

thats y u use water to help take down the stickiness. honey a natural humectant and moisturizer. while pink lotion make work for u it may not work for everyone. also pink lotion generally contains mineral oil and/or petroleum which blocks ur hair follicles and makes it more difficult for healthy hair growth. pink lotion also ave silicones which in the long run actualy dries out ur hair and it only temporarily moisturizes the hair and makes it appear to be healthy but once its washed out

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

it's "benefits" no longer work

[LuvAlwayzEndurez]

what did you say that golden cap was called agian? And what does it do? Thanks!

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

its a foil cap. its good for conditioning treatments. it helps keep in heat. u can use it under a hairdryer or a heated conditioning cap or u can use it alone and it will help keep in ur body heat

[MamiDeBrooklyn]

hey i have a few questions..1) do you put this on before shapooing or conditioning hair or do you do it after? 2)a.does it really matter if you put it on before or after b.will it make a difference? 3)when do you put this on?once a week?once a month? 4)will it make your hair grow faster? [thanks!]

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

1. I usually use this before shampooing but sometimes I also use it after shampooing and conditioning as a hot oil treatment. 2. doing it before or after does make a difference. if u do it before shampooing it helps ur hair defend itself against the harsh shampoo and using it after acts more as a hot oil treatment in that u need was it out really well afterwards because u wont be shampooing to get rid of the excess. and it will leave ur hair very shiny and moisturized. 3. i do this 1-2x a month

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

4. nothing necessarily makes ur hair grow faster, but u can take steps to help u to retain the length that u have and keep it healthy so that as ur hair keeps growing u wont need to keep cutting it because its damaged. healthy hair doesnt need to be cut as often as damaged hair which means in the end can keep the hair u are growing.

[shimmeringshannon]

Ohh, ok.. i understand!

ill try this !

thanks alot for this information, i apreciate it , much! thanks again! x

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

so basically i use the vo5 like its shampoo. then i rinse and put in my usual moisturizing shampoo leave it in for 5-30 min while i sit untder the over head dryer (depending on what my hair needs, if it feels super dry i leave it on for the full 30, if not i leave it on for less time. but at least once a week i make sure to leave it on for 30 min) then i rinse it out and air dry.

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

the honey mixture shouldnt make your hair greasy. what I do is put the honey mixture in and leave it in for 15-30 min under and overhead dryer (like the ones at the salon) if you dont have an overhead dryer you can use a plastic shower cap (or a foil cap) and then wrap a towel around ur head. then i rinse out the mixture and lather my hair with shampoo once. then a get a cheap light conditioner like v05 and use it to "lather" my hair and scalp 1-2 times (like you do when you shampoo ur hair)

[CuteHotSweetPie]

I have not only a few questions i have something thaat is a fact!!!! 1Now why do u use food instead of two products ???2

why should ur hair be damp it does not have to be damp be cuz mainly u can take a shower and then do tht.i will finish it tomorrow 2 bye

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

im not quite sure what your asking me love. what exactly are you asking me about food? I like to dampen my hair because it helps make the honey less sticky.

[CuteHotSweetPie]

Ok i am back now again

. now if there is so much BAD stuf

why do u use it also u dont need water to help the shampoo the shampoo it is supose to work by itz self trust me my gma owns a shop !!!

[12quillemall5321]

OMG! I use honey too.  In my conditioner, toner, and as a body scrub. It works!

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

[EthnicHairGrowth]

In this video with the pre-poo hone are you transitioning? How much new growth do you have?

Thanks forthe video

[CurlyGurlMakeup]

only like a little over a month post relaxer

[EthnicHairGrowth]

Just curious... I am finishing up on my honey and olive oil .. I added molasses to make it stretch .. not sure I shld have done that. The molasses goes in the Cramel Naural Relaxer mix I made last week end.. Actually help stretch my new growth and made hair really strong. I also did a coconut cream relaxer prior to that .. it is great protein and will also loosen your nu growth ... I have videos on both of them....
