 Hello beautiful welcome to the game show where I answer your questions today I have a beautiful glitter bucket that I just made because I have a lot of glitter laying around my house And I thought why not put it to use and make a beautiful question mark glitter Bucket so I asked you on Twitter what hair miss you've heard and wondered if they were true or not So today your tweets are in here And I'm gonna answer that so we're gonna put two baskets here on the screen One is gonna be for a miss that are proven to be true. They are true The other one is gonna be miss that are definitely not true and just are just myths. They're no, they're stupid They're dumb. Okay, great. You get the plot. That's an easy game Let's play it when I was reading through these questions earlier before putting them in here I did notice that some of these are not actually provable I'd say 50 50 50% of them are answerable with scientific proof and 50% of them are not and is just gonna be my opinion alone I will give you all the hairdresser knowledge I have I've been asked every single one of these questions by one of my clients at some point in my life And a lot of this is gonna be my opinion So if you guys have differing opinions, that is okay because everybody in this world has opinions Okay, sometimes some people forget that But I don't let's do it Okay, let's dig in and feast on these questions First question is from Leila. She says cutting your split ends makes your hair grow. All right, Leila Well, I'm glad you asked that question with a period So basically what happens when your hair breaks at the end? It's like that, you know And then it continues to break up if you don't first cut that end off and make it blunt again So yes, sort of makes your hair grow. I think you meant to say doesn't make your hair grow faster I'm gonna say yes and no It makes your hair grow faster in the way that it doesn't keep splitting up if you have very fragile ends Your hair may break off from brushing or just being aggressive with your hair It's never good to have really fragile ends. So if you do cut it it does end up having more of a blunt edge to it which ends up making your hair look much thicker and fuller and Kind of yeah does result I guess in it growing faster in a way. Hope that answered that question Properly. I'm gonna put this in the true basket Boop, that is a true myth, which makes it not a myth. It's a fact. Okay, great Okay, next question. It's the same question from a different person. Great true basket Okay, does brushing your hair every day make it grow faster? This is from Grayson's girl. Okay Grayson's girl Uh, I'd say yes because first of all, I'd recommend brushing your hair with a more bristle brush natural brush Natural bristles are way better at distributing oils around your hair So when the oil is brushed from your scalp because your scalp has the most oil on it is brushing the oil down to your ends And your natural oils are the best for your hair. Also when you brush your hair It stimulates blood in your scalp and stimulates hair growth. So let's put that in the true that is not a myth That is true. Let's put that in the true jar. Okay true basket. Whatever it is. I don't know There we go. Okay next question not that one Oh, this is a good one because I personally wondered this and did a lot of research on this in the past Can split ends be repaired? This is from a girl named Shelby. Hey Shelves This is a definitely um controversial subject within Because no My answer to this is no hair can not be repaired once it is damaged You can help it not be damaged by using products such as old plex or anything else like that that multiplies bonds As you lighten the hair. I hope that's the right science behind it I'm really bad at science But once the hair is dead, you cannot bring it back to life hair is already dead skin You can't bring something dead back to life when it's already dead. So when you kill it more, you can't resurrect it I'm sorry. I know I wish you could also little side note I I did learn this in a hair class by another guy teaching and I was astonished by this is the coolest thing I ever heard in a while I always thought you could actually repair hair with say a hair mask or anything like that But you actually can't and he showed us a lot of diagrams I wish I had them for you but say there's a crack right here You can put a bandit over it say with a hair mask or oil or anything like that and it kind of Peer healthy and not damaged anymore But right when you rinse that off right where you should I poo it off It is going to go back to the same state it was before you did the conditioning treatment But conditioning treatments do help the appearance and does make it look a lot damn better So that is yes. In fact a myth our first myth of the night You can't repair split ends once they're split and now I realized that I didn't quite answer that question I answered the question of can damaged hair be repaired, but she said can split ends be repaired Yeah, you can you can cut them, but I'm going to put this in the myth jar Just because I answered a different question that question was a myth. Great. Awesome. Hope that made sense. Bye This question is from Caitlyn. Does massaging your scalp really help your hair grow? This kind of goes back to our other question with brushing your hair. Yes Stimulates blood circulation which stimulates hair growth. So yes, Caitlyn it does Into the truth jar Does lemon juice actually lighten hair? Yes, it does I don't know the scientific facts behind it and I tried to google it and there was nothing to find So yes, it does don't know how guessing because it's acidic and something to do with acid and sun It reacts and lightens your hair But wouldn't recommend it because it'll turn your hair orange But yes, that is in fact a true myth Okay Moving on Anissa asked quite the opposite of the question we heard earlier that brushing your hair every day is actually bad for your hair No, unless you're aggressively brushing it. No, wait, that's not bad for your hair. I don't get that. No, that is a myth Shampooing makes your hair shed. Okay. First of all, it is normal to lose hair while shampooing You are supposed to lose 50 to 200 hairs a day according to science That seems like a little low. I feel like you should you definitely lose a lot of hair every day That's completely normal. Your hair falls out new ones grow back. It's just how life is I wish we could keep them all in our head all the time, but no shampooing specifically No, but usually your hair becomes loose falls out and then something in your hair Maybe oil makes it kind of attached to another strand and then when you shampoo it It just probably breaks it off that other strand and that's why you feel like your hair Probably is coming out a lot when you're shampooing, but no shampoo specifically doesn't make your hair fall out So that is a myth. I have so many questions. Let's see what I can get through Miranda says can anything actually change the speed of your hair growth at all and do coffee tea rinses help hair health I believe that changing your diet to just live a healthy lifestyle Make sure you exercise drink a lot of water. I know this is like everything everybody always hears But that is how I believe that you can grow your hair faster and thicker and fuller just being healthy from the inside Stop trying to put things on the outside. Everything starts from in here So if you have a healthy inside most likely your hair will be much nicer on the outside and much shinier and much healthier People will definitely notice the difference. So and then the other question was does coffee tea rinses help the hair I honestly can't answer that question because I have never heard of those before I don't even know what that is. This is more of a question But we're gonna put it in the true that yes things can speed up your hair growth Healthiness can boom. There we go. Bye Okay Next amber asks if a ponytail is too tight then your hair will start to fall out Are you referring to a video I made about somebody? Amber uh, yes Yes, that's true because there is a thing called tension alopecia Hair is stretchy if you pull it off your head and stretch it out a little bit. It is definitely very stretchy Well, not very stretchy, but is is stretchy when you put a ponytail in all the time And you have these the front hairline is always the finest hair on your head when you pull those back tight You're pulling that hair past the point and ends up breaking and that is why you end up with your hair falling out From wearing ponytails. So yes True basket It's fast. It's fast. Okay. This question I got a lot Miley says braiding your hair makes them grow faster I heard this is a child and I'm no clue if it's true or not. I've never heard of this before I don't know why I don't know what the reason would be for it to grow faster and braids I mean that literally makes no sense besides like maybe you style it less Maybe use less heat on your hair if you have it in braids all the time I think that's where it kind of came from. Maybe if you just style it without using heat and anything like that and then Yeah, probably it'll grow faster, but I'm gonna put that in the myth basket because It's just I don't know. That's just weird. I don't get that. This no Bye okay next trimming your hair makes grow faster Oh, this is a good one Isabella says rinsing your hair with cold water makes it shinier So I know my own answer is for this. It's total BS but I'm gonna have I'm gonna read off somebody else's explanation for it because there's just a lot more Scientific and sounds more factual than mine. So I'm reading this off of in the gloss.com Philip Kingsley who works at a Trichological clinic, which is a hair clinic basically once the hair has grown past the scalp. It's technically dead tissue It neither contains blood vessels nor nerves rinsing with cold water Therefore has the same effect on your hair as rinsing with warm water does rinsing with cold water Can constrict the blood capillaries in your scalp as these capillaries carry vital nutrients to the hair follicles in theory It may actually be harmful to hair growth. Whoo. Well, he said it you guys and Even if it does make your hair shiny for some odd reason and you're really just really want that extra shine in your life Just get a shine spray. It's a lot easier and sucks a lot less than washing your hair with cold water So let's put that in the not true myth basket Let's answer just a few more and then i'll be done. Okay. Kayla asks gray hair is only caused by stress No, it ain't true. I mean, no, I just don't believe that Stress has anything to do with gray hair. I believe that gray hair is caused by just what your biological Infrastructure is made like some people get gray sooner than others. Some people get more gray Some people never get gray. That's just different people's bodies and it's like having blue eyes or having brown eyes Like some people have it and some people don't you don't get to say at all And how much gray is you're gonna have or if you're gonna get gray at all? So no stress has nothing to do with it in my eyes So you guys can go off down below if you think differently, but that's my opinion and take it a leave it, honey so that's Katerina says I've heard color takes better dirty hair than clean hair I honestly have never heard of that. No, that doesn't make it doesn't make a difference. That is a total myth Okay, Brini says hey brad one myth I have wondering was true or not Is if it's bad for you to brush your hair? Well, it's wet because it's more vulnerable and then can lead to split ends I'd say yes if hair is really tangled. I try to not brush it a ton when it's wet I'll just brush gently over the sections of hair and try to get as much tangles out as possible But then I'll dry it like 20 percent more and then continue to brush because hair does actually stretch when it's wet And is much more pliable than when it's dry. It becomes more hardened than when it's wet So if you are brushing the hardened hair strands, it's much easier You can pull much harder without breaking the hair strands out So I'd recommend not brushing your hair too much when it's wet waiting till it dries a little bit at least And then going in and brushing those really hard tangles out. So this is true Yes, it is worse for you to brush your hair when it's wet. It's more vulnerable and stuff. Okay, cool Okay Stafford and lynx says is your hair really different forever once you dye it one time? Even if it's grown out all the way and it's completely gone. Does this still apply to semi-permanent color? No, your hair is not forever different once you completely grow that color out Your hair is back to what it naturally was and semi-permanent color. Yes It is different because it doesn't change anything within the hair strand It is not taking any pigment out of your hair. It is not replacing any pigment in your hair All semi-permanent color does is lay on top of the hair strand as kind of like a coating Think of like a coating on a i'm really proud of like relating it to things Think of a coating on it's like a candy apple You dunk the candy apple in that red candy stuff and it turns red But then you eat it off. That's what happens when it's having permanent color It wears off your hair strand the more and more you wash it and it goes back to normal after a while Hopefully usually unless your hair is really porous and it just doesn't want to come off. Then that sucks. Sorry. That's too bad But it no your hair is not completely changed forever. That's not true Okay, that's all I have time for today. I answered plenty of questions.
