I’m glad to have found you. I have been natural for years and didn’t know what my porosity was. I think I have finally figured out that my hair is high porosity I’ve damaged it due to dyeing and am trying to regrow it and really focus on the health over length. So I really need videos alike this because it feels like high porosity hair is scarce in the natural hair community
I have HP hair and I use coconut oil in protein treatments. Recently I use coconut milk from the can and dont use the oil at all. I add to rice water or rice milk and sit on my hair for 30-45 min with heat, wash as normal, and then deep condition with heat. After that...I install a protective style (flexirods, mini twists, finger coils, loose twists) and then seal with shea butter...sticking to this general routine has literally changed my hair.
Yessss my hair has grown a lot! I'm still adjusting to the new length lol. No problem! I wanna try some of the oils myself to give you guys my thoughts on how they work in comparison to Coconut Oil. 💕
You all prolly dont care but does anyone know a tool to log back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb forgot the account password. I love any assistance you can offer me
@Marley Colin I really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Marley Colin HOLY **** IT ACTUALLY WORKED! Just hacked my ig account details within about 40 mins of using the site. Had to pay 15 $ but for sure worth it :O Thanks so much, you saved my ass!
I too have high porous hair, and am much older. I agree that all these products are a must have, some of which I knew nothing about though. Thanks for sharing them with us
Aww, I love that!!! Thank you so much for your continuous support. It's been quite the journey but worth it with all that I've learned about my hair over the years. ❤️
@@AfroKhadisiac That's true, your hair has grown well and been taken care off that shows us no matter what hair porosity and damage you have it can be fixed and healthy. We actually use a couple of products that are the same the only difference is that am color treated and got itchy scalp. Thank you for your amazing videos 🥰
I was just looking at another study about the same effects of coconut oil like an hour or so ago. Such a great reminder and us high pos think alike we be in sync 😂😂😂 also I’m curious how do you make your parts in your hair I’d love to see how you part your hair and also part out your struggle areas cleanly. Also I was last week old when I tried washing my hair in the sink and never want to go back to the shower again 😭😭😭.
Really?! Girl, I love looking at studies lol. Researching in general is my thing. I find the information so interesting. ; I don't part my hair at all Fay lol! Since I always do twist outs, I think my hair just naturally divided itself into its own parts over time. I get rid of the parts by picking my hair (usually picking upside down does the trick). I wash my hair in the sink when I'm filming. I prefer the shower, but as long as the job gets done I'm cool with it lol. 😂❤️
Lovely video 😍. Please how do i take down my cornrows to avoid breakage? My hair it very dense and coarse 😩😩. It's never easy doing all she did in this video. I experience a lot of breakage and shedding 😭😭😭. Help please 🙏🙏
Hi Ikhina! Thank you so much ❤️ Hmm, I haven't installed cornrows on my natural hair before, so I'm not 100% certain of the best way to take them out. I would say to saturate your hair with coconut oil and possibly leave it on overnight before taking your braids out. I imagine the oil will soften the braids and help with detangling. I hope this helps!
I was looking online for RUclipsrs with high porosity hair that have a similar hair density to mine and you fit perfectly 😱. It's almost eerie. But funnily, my issues are the opposite of yours. The front of my hair and nape are somewhat long (though I'm not sure if they're still growing 🤷🏾♀️); but my middle section is what I need to catch up in length with the rest of my hair. Also while my hair seems and stays soft when I give it extra attention, it's not shiny at all. It tends to frizz out of my protective straight-backs hairstyle... And I think I have really dry scalp (not itchy) with all the dustings I see on my hair every now and again. I'd appreciate any recommendations from everyone ☺️. I need to see some improvement this year as part of my hair goals (Bra-band length seems like a dream 😅). Thanks!
This is just another reminder I need to wash my hair tonight 😂😂. Currently prepping with coconut oil under a plastic cap. That particular brand too of coconut oil is my favorite I’ve ever used on my hair.
Hahahaha I love it Fay! 😁😘 Yeah, Spectrum is the best brand for Coconut Oil! I tried another brand yrs ago, but I didn't like it as much. It smelled different to me too. I don't mention it often that I only use the Spectrum brand, but it's literally all I ever purchase.
@@AfroKhadisiac Yeah that’s partially why I didn’t prepoo with coconut oil anymore but then I tried this one and I was like ooooo okay this is what we’re talking about. Nice smooth texture that melts right in. Also I get mine at Target although I’m sure they sell them elsewhere.
You are always posting videos exactly when I need them. I'm suuuper here for your channel because I am also high porosity! I've picked up alot of tips from you so thank you very much!! Your hair has grown so much and it's very inspiring. Keep going Queen!!
Hi D! I'm sorry, I'm not sure which protein masque you're referring to. Do you mean a protein treatment or the Camille Rose Penetrating Treatment that was used in the video? Please let me know!
I have high porosity hair as well and it’s low in density, but full if that makes sense? Mine is damaged. It’s similar to yours, just not as healthy. Your hair is gorgeous by the way🥰
This video is everything!! I struggle with picking because it sounds like I am breaking my hair. I will follow these steps next wash day especially with the turbie for 30 minutes.
Hi its Ang from the UK. What wonderful well thought out detailed video. Thats the first time I've seen someone was with sulfate free products and get such amazing results. Now you given me some idea of how to use the oils before the wash, such as coconut oil. Thank you so much
You are so welcome Angela! ☺️ Please let me know how the shampoo works for you if you decide to try it. It's one of the best sulfate free shampoos that I've ever used. Thank you for the love all the way in the UK! 😘
Hi Khadijah! You look lovely as always. I just bought the Spectrum unrefined coconut oil from Walmart for 6.94. I was glad they actually had it! I used to pre-poo with coconut oil years ago after seeing that it was a staple in your routine, but I slacked off for some reason. I've been struggling with dryness so hopefully pre-pooing with the coconut oil will make a difference for me. I also am going to try the Camille Rose Naturals Coconut Water Penetrating Treatment. I just ordered the CR coconut water leave in and I'm looking forward to using it this wash day. I usually use Kinky Curly Knot Today, but I'm out and you really have me wanting to try the Camille Rose, lol! I've been a subscriber for years and you really know how to care for high porosity hair and your product recommendations and tips just work when nothing else does. Even though I watch and enjoy other youtuber's hair care videos including ones with high porosity hair, I always come back to you because you have always been the one to help me the most with caring for my hair. Thank you for all that you do.💕
Really? I read that palm kernel oil is similar to coconut oil, but I haven't actually had a chance to try it & see for myself. This is conformation that I need to pick it up & make it video lol! There are many ppl like yourself whose hair doesn't like coconut oil, so I think it would be a great alternative! Thank you so much for sharing this with me!
Thanks. I've been using the coconut oil as a prepoo with a little bit of evoo. I have to try that shampoo 1 day. I have major color damage too major dryness too. I need to my hair of dryness
I was just thinking..... where is AK's video and it popped up. Lol. I have seen such a difference by doing the overnight pre poo. You give the best advice for high porosity girls. ❤❤
I have the CR cocoa nibs oil (one isnt halfway gone and have another one on deck). I have yet to wear my hair out like you do (as much as I would love to do it) I know I will sweat and wind up putting my hair in a bun. I will try that leave in and see if it's another go to product.
We are absolutely hair twins. I gave up growing my hair long years ago. Set back after set back has my hair stuck at bra strap length. I want to go back to using kinky curly and see if I get better results. I want to see if I can improve my hair for 2021 so I'm here on this journey with you 🤗💖💖💖
Hi!! I’ve been following for about a month and I’m just really struggling with hygral fatigue/overmoisturized hair. This CGM really screwwwd me up! I had long curly hair and started following the CGM two years ago and year after year my hair started to shed, I thought I was deficient in some sort of vitamin or something, I never thought it was shes moisture because I was never clarifying and I stayed away from Sulfates. (Idk why because my entire life I’ve been using sulfate and my hair was amazing) now I think my hair became high porosity because I read the description and that seems like my hair. I just want some help because I’ve use the aphogee protein with amazing results and I clarified with a sulfate shampoo, but now I’m wondering should I be washing my hair with sulfate free shampoos n conditioners like you? I’ve stuck to only sulfate for two months now and lol I’m lost! Help please
Just keep doing what your doing. You've gotten amazing results with what your doing so far and you're about to mess it up again by taking advice based off of what's working for her lol. You're in your hair too much as it is. Just leave it alone and continue with what's working. Stop getting in your own way.
Crazy how you can put the turbie twist for 30mins and come back with your hair still looking so juicy! My hair dries out and frizzes the minute I step out of the shower 🤣 Seeing as we have similar texture and porosity, I have a weird question: I have had leave ins and curling creams foam up when I apply it in my hair. Its so weird and I dont know why that happens. Has that ever happened to you (or anyone)?
@@amixeblu sometimes I use shampoo but I rinse it out well, and then I rinse it out some more. Its so weird. It even started happening to me with the Kinky Curly leave in. I thought it was a bad batch but the next one I got was the same. I've scoured the internet and have found only one thread about this.
@@amixeblu yes! I have even tried rubbing them in my hands first to see if it suds but it doesnt, it only happens when in contact with my hair. Soo freaking weird 😭😅
@@user-kk4zz8wn1w It is so strange! I wouldn't know either. Maybe do try rinsing out your washing products a little longer next time, see what happens.
GIRL GIRL GIRL IM SO EARLY. Please help a girl with high porosity hair out. How many times per week/month do I prepoo? How many product should contain protein ingredients? And which oil is best for you prepoo and which oil is best for sealing? Please help me I’m really struggling with breakage and I feel like cantu is the cause. :( Side note: I wash my hair two times a week, I clarify every two weeks, use a deep conditioner every week.WHEN DOES THE PROTEIN TREATMENT COME?!! I’m so lost !
YES GIRL! I SEE YOU LOL! You asked some really great questions Iz! I have answers for them all. Please see below. How many times per week/month do I prepoo? I pre-poo every time I wash my hair. I wash my hair once a week, so that comes up to about 4x a month. How many products should I use that contain protein ingredients? This really depends on your hair type & hair health. Every person with high porosity hair may not need to use as many products that contain protein. I like my shampoo & deep conditioner to contain protein. As long as there's protein in these 2 products, I know that my curls are going to feel strengthened and be defined. The rest of the products I use can be protein free. Which oil is best for you to prepoo with and which oil is best for sealing? Personally, I love Coconut Oil for prepooing my high porosity hair. However, as I mentioned in the video, there are definitely other oils out there that can mimic what Coconut oil does. I haven't tried any of those oils as of yet, but they're definitely on my list to try in the near future. As for sealing, Extra Virgin Olive oil has always been my go-to. It was the first oil that I ever used to seal my hair and it worked. When does the protein treatment come? I always clarify in the beginning of each month. (The first wash day of the month). After I clarify, I do a protein treatment. Its best to do your protein treatment on clarified hair so that the protein can repair your hair from the inside and out (a clean strand of hair helps the product penetrate & adhere better). I hope this was helpful! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@AfroKhadisiac OMG you don’t know how grateful I am for your answer, FINALLY SOME SOLID GUIDELINES! Thank you so so so much. Now I’ll go and watch this video since I just hopped out of the shower. New subscriber here! ❤️❤️❤️
Wanted to share what I've been using for prepoo: I started with just coconut oil but after doing research on penetrating oils I now mix 1 part coconut oil, 1/2 olive oil, 1/2 avocado oil. I basically drench my hair in 🤣 I leave it overnight and it makes my hair soooo soft
LCO is this method best for high porosity hair? I'm transitioning to natural hair and I noticed you applied the oil last. Enjoy your channel and your hair looks healthy and moisturize
Hey Roselind, yes I use the LCO method for my high porosity hair. I don't think there's a right or wrong way to moisturize as far as the LCO or LOC method. I'd suggest trying both (one on each side) to see which one works best for you. Thank you so much!
Hii I have a question. What do I do on the day of clarify? Prepoo and deepcondition? Or just one? And when I do protein preatment, should I be doing anything before or after?
Hi Flower! 👋🏾 Great questions. On the day that I clarify, I start out with my overnight prepoo as shown in the video. I do that prior to washing my hair every single week. Afterwards, I clarify with ApHogee's Shampoo for Damaged hair. Next, I use a protein treatment. I'm using ORS Hair Mayonaisse this year. After that, I follow up with a deep conditioner to balance out the protein. I like to use Creme of Nature's Pure Honey Mask. I prepoo, clarify, protein treat and deep condition and style over the course of 2 days. When I don't clarify, my routine usually consists of only prepooing, shampooing, deep conditioning and styling. I hope this was clear and helpful! ❣️
I love the fact you shared the real high porosity hair struggles. My sides & nape are always dry, it's like no water no products get locked in at all lol.
Yes! Real HP hair struggles lol. I think it’s common that a lot of us have problem areas, but there aren’t really a lot of videos that address those issues on YT. My edges & nape definitely need more moisture than the rest of my hair. I just posted a video sharing my new moisturizing routine for my edges/nape. I found a moisturizer that works serious wonderss!! 🙌🏾 If you’re interested, check it out! ruclips.net/video/l_EHNStLJ7w/видео.html
THANK YOUUUU!!! this is exactly how my hair is I thought I had low and high porosity, but turns out I have high. Time to find the right products so I can get healthy hair again ‼️
Good Night Nathalie! Thank you so much for watching. 💞 I completely agree. The products are on the pricier side, but they are really worth it. Camille Rose Naturals always has great sales - I try to stock up a bit when I can get them for much cheaper during Black Friday. I hope this helps!
@@AfroKhadisiac Hi good afternoon, appreciate your response I am from Barbados, so I cant even say at this time that I can order to have them sent here prior to all thats happening now. My hair is fine but three differnent textures, I am in early forties my main problem area is my edges, trying to get more growth their
Hey Bianca, that's a great question! Definitely something I should've mentioned in the video. Yes, I wash my hair with warm water & do a final rinse with cold water after rinsing my deep conditioner out! ❤️
AK your routine is simple enough but I'm wondering even though we are both high porosity, you are a 3C/4A and I'm a 4B/4C if this routine will work for me. We have same porosity, same density and same texture just different curl types. I really need help
Hey Ebonie! Yessss, I love products with Avocado oil. 🙌🏾 I haven't tried prepooing with it yet, but I wanna try it one of these days. You should! It makes such a big difference. 💖💖💖
loved it!!! do you recommend styling on damp hair or soaking wet?? on 3b high porosity, thick and high density hair I mean.... which is mine. Thank you
Hi Charlie, thank you so much! 😘 I don't recommend styling fine high porosity hair while soaking wet because that's when the hair is weakest. I use the Turbie Twist for 30 mins to absorb all of the excess water then I spray my hair lightly to add a little water back. Since your hair is dense, you may be able to get away with styling on soaking wet hair. I do think that styling on damp hair is best though! ❤️
I love your hair videos! I just watched Sarah Ingles new video about how everything we know about moisture in the hair might be wrong. Actually, our hair doesn't even need water?! It is super scientifically based and i would love to hear your opinion on this.
@@dorethamcelliott4900 Oooh wow so you did like a hair analysis. Can you point me in the right direction of how to find a lab? I’m in California. I’m struggling to figure out my hair porosity. I know my hair tends to be on the dryer side and I’m having trouble finding what works.
I’m glad to have found you. I have been natural for years and didn’t know what my porosity was. I think I have finally figured out that my hair is high porosity I’ve damaged it due to dyeing and am trying to regrow it and really focus on the health over length.

Please help me I’m really struggling with breakage and I feel like cantu is the cause. :( Side note: I wash my hair two times a week, I clarify every two weeks, use a deep conditioner every week.WHEN DOES THE PROTEIN TREATMENT COME?!! I’m so lost !
YES GIRL! I SEE YOU LOL! You asked some really great questions Iz! I have answers for them all. Please see below.
How many times per week/month do I prepoo?
I pre-poo every time I wash my hair. I wash my hair once a week, so that comes up to about 4x a month.
How many products should I use that contain protein ingredients?
This really depends on your hair type & hair health. Every person with high porosity hair may not need to use as many products that contain protein. I like my shampoo & deep conditioner to contain protein. As long as there's protein in these 2 products, I know that my curls are going to feel strengthened and be defined. The rest of the products I use can be protein free.
Which oil is best for you to prepoo with and which oil is best for sealing?
Personally, I love Coconut Oil for prepooing my high porosity hair. However, as I mentioned in the video, there are definitely other oils out there that can mimic what Coconut oil does. I haven't tried any of those oils as of yet, but they're definitely on my list to try in the near future. As for sealing, Extra Virgin Olive oil has always been my go-to. It was the first oil that I ever used to seal my hair and it worked.
When does the protein treatment come?
I always clarify in the beginning of each month. (The first wash day of the month). After I clarify, I do a protein treatment. Its best to do your protein treatment on clarified hair so that the protein can repair your hair from the inside and out (a clean strand of hair helps the product penetrate & adhere better).
I hope this was helpful! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@AfroKhadisiac OMG you don’t know how grateful I am for your answer, FINALLY SOME SOLID GUIDELINES! Thank you so so so much. Now I’ll go and watch this video since I just hopped out of the shower. New subscriber here! ❤️❤️❤️
Wanted to share what I've been using for prepoo: I started with just coconut oil but after doing research on penetrating oils I now mix 1 part coconut oil, 1/2 olive oil, 1/2 avocado oil. I basically drench my hair in 🤣 I leave it overnight and it makes my hair soooo soft
Wish I could use jbco I liked the protection it gave my strands but 😅 my scalp was on fire 🔥!
LCO is this method best for high porosity hair? I'm transitioning to natural hair and I noticed you applied the oil last.
Enjoy your channel and your hair looks healthy and moisturize
Hey Roselind, yes I use the LCO method for my high porosity hair. I don't think there's a right or wrong way to moisturize as far as the LCO or LOC method. I'd suggest trying both (one on each side) to see which one works best for you. Thank you so much!
Beautiful results Khad. ⭐️
Thank you Ron! 😊
Ur so pretty😍😍 Awesome video!!
Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️
@@AfroKhadisiac ur welcome honey ❤️
How oftenly do you wash your hair
😍Hair is on point!!❤️ the earrings
Hay Gina! Thank you so much girl! 😍❤️
Hii I have a question. What do I do on the day of clarify? Prepoo and deepcondition? Or just one? And when I do protein preatment, should I be doing anything before or after?
Hi Flower! 👋🏾 Great questions. On the day that I clarify, I start out with my overnight prepoo as shown in the video. I do that prior to washing my hair every single week. Afterwards, I clarify with ApHogee's Shampoo for Damaged hair. Next, I use a protein treatment. I'm using ORS Hair Mayonaisse this year. After that, I follow up with a deep conditioner to balance out the protein. I like to use Creme of Nature's Pure Honey Mask. I prepoo, clarify, protein treat and deep condition and style over the course of 2 days. When I don't clarify, my routine usually consists of only prepooing, shampooing, deep conditioning and styling. I hope this was clear and helpful! ❣️
I love the fact you shared the real high porosity hair struggles. My sides & nape are always dry, it's like no water no products get locked in at all lol.
Yes! Real HP hair struggles lol. I think it’s common that a lot of us have problem areas, but there aren’t really a lot of videos that address those issues on YT. My edges & nape definitely need more moisture than the rest of my hair. I just posted a video sharing my new moisturizing routine for my edges/nape. I found a moisturizer that works serious wonderss!! 🙌🏾 If you’re interested, check it out! ruclips.net/video/l_EHNStLJ7w/видео.html
THANK YOUUUU!!! this is exactly how my hair is I thought I had low and high porosity, but turns out I have high. Time to find the right products so I can get healthy hair again ‼️

Nice video
The products which you use are expensive here but would like to try to improve moisture retention for me and growth
Good Night Nathalie! Thank you so much for watching. 💞 I completely agree. The products are on the pricier side, but they are really worth it. Camille Rose Naturals always has great sales - I try to stock up a bit when I can get them for much cheaper during Black Friday. I hope this helps!
@@AfroKhadisiac Hi good afternoon, appreciate your response
I am from Barbados, so I cant even say at this time that I can order to have them sent here prior to all thats happening now. My hair is fine but three differnent textures, I am in early forties my main problem area is my edges, trying to get more growth their
Thanks to
Any suggestions for edges or is it too late for me lol
Great vid, I may give this shampoo a try!
You should! I love it so much!
I have high porosity hair but my hair hates coconut oil. It leaves my hair dry and stiff. I’ll try avocado oil.
I love your hair!!! 😍 Please let me know how it goes with the avocado oil prepoo! ❤️
Keep it up love the end result 💋
For high prosity hair do you wash your hair with warm water and rinse with cold ? What temperature water would you recommend
Hey Bianca, that's a great question! Definitely something I should've mentioned in the video. Yes, I wash my hair with warm water & do a final rinse with cold water after rinsing my deep conditioner out! ❤️
AK your routine is simple enough but I'm wondering even though we are both high porosity, you are a 3C/4A and I'm a 4B/4C if this routine will work for me. We have same porosity, same density and same texture just different curl types. I really need help
Me too was wondering
does anyone have any reviews on the camille rose oil ?
do you use a conditioner? or is the deep conditioner your replacent? also is this a good routine for type 3a/3b hair?
Yes, I use a deep conditioner instead of a conditioner. Also, I think this routine would be great for your hair type.
@@AfroKhadisiac thank you :)
Hey AK 👋🏽 my hair hates coconut oil , but she loves avocado oil! I need to incorporate pre-pooing in my hair regimen❣️
Hey Ebonie! Yessss, I love products with Avocado oil. 🙌🏾 I haven't tried prepooing with it yet, but I wanna try it one of these days. You should! It makes such a big difference. 💖💖💖
Prepoos are essential in my household lol. Grapeseed oil is another great nourishing oil to try. Thanks for these informative videos....so helpful.
You and your hair are looking super gorgeous!! And Happy New Year😍😍
Happy New Year beautiful!!!! Thank you for leaving the sweetest comments. They always hype me up lol. 💖💖💖
I LOVEEEE THIS VIDEO
Thank you soooo much Marina!
What song is that in the beginning ?
❤️❤️❤️ your videos 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 great results 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you so much Elaine! Much appreciated! ❤️❤️❤️
Love a good wash day. Love the Intro. 💃🏾💞✔📝👍🏾
Thank you so much Myrna 🤗
I also heard that using coconut oil as a prepoo will help prevent your hair from absorbing too much water during your wash day routine.
i’m going to try that because the over curl for a waver is a nightmare
Great routine 😘
Glad you liked It J!! 😘 Thank you so much
@@AfroKhadisiac 👌🏾
loved it!!! do you recommend styling on damp hair or soaking wet?? on 3b high porosity, thick and high density hair I mean.... which is mine.
Thank you
Hi Charlie, thank you so much! 😘 I don't recommend styling fine high porosity hair while soaking wet because that's when the hair is weakest. I use the Turbie Twist for 30 mins to absorb all of the excess water then I spray my hair lightly to add a little water back. Since your hair is dense, you may be able to get away with styling on soaking wet hair. I do think that styling on damp hair is best though! ❤️
@@AfroKhadisiac Thank you sooo much♥️
Great video thank beautiful😍
I love your hair videos! I just watched Sarah Ingles new video about how everything we know about moisture in the hair might be wrong. Actually, our hair doesn't even need water?! It is super scientifically based and i would love to hear your opinion on this.
another banger
Be sure to balance the amount of protein you use with enough moisture, but you know all that. ;) Your hair has gotten long! Very pretty! :)
Thank you so much Marleen! ❤️
I've been trying your routine and just found out that I have average porosity. Is that the same as medium porosity?
Hi Doretha! Yes, average porosity is the same as medium porosity. 💓
@@AfroKhadisiac thank you
Doretha how did you figure that out?
I sent my hair samples to a lab
@@dorethamcelliott4900 Oooh wow so you did like a hair analysis. Can you point me in the right direction of how to find a lab? I’m in California. I’m struggling to figure out my hair porosity. I know my hair tends to be on the dryer side and I’m having trouble finding what works.
Love it
Thank you! ❤️

💗💗💗
Kiss you too. 🖤🖤
You take care of your hair beautifully but your twist are horrible
Thank you but I don't see anything wrong with my twists in this video. 🧐
