I have been doing the same routine as you mentioned on another tape. Ladies Let me tell you, my 4c hair LOVES IT! I have never ever felt my (natural) hair so soft, so moisturizer, so easy to handle, wet or dry. It hold for about 4~5 days before I do a refresh. 4real! 4real! I Spritz my hair with water/glycerine mixture, after my deep conditioning, then leave in conditioner then lock it in with castor oil then twist my hair. At first I was turning into a product junkie, desperate to find the right product for my hair. then I realized how silly and expensive that was spending money just for the product to collect dust on the shelf😂 I can’t use it fast enough washing once a week. Camille Rose rosemary oil collection won the battle. Thanks CD
GLYCERIN actually close the hair cuticles. its perfect for high porosity hair. i don't understand why youtuber trying stop people from using it. i believe they trying stop people from being successful with their hair journey by advertising more product. Glycerin and protein is the only product you really need for length retention. Not oleplex and these expensive hair bands like shea moisture.
I just brought glycerine to the hair party and it is wonderful! I made a humectant water with just the glycerine and sat with a cap under my hood dryer for 30 minutes. The softness was crazy. I also seal with castor oil and that is the magic combo for my hair.
Using my activator gel which is high in glycerin does moisturize my hair, but in colder weather, it makes my hair super frizzy so I like using my glycerin based products mainly for twists.
I have low porosity and simply using leave in and oil does not get the job done. I would have to re-moisturize maybe the next day. Since I’ve started using glycerin and hair grease. I don’t have to moisturize until the following was day. My curls are so defined as well. I can let my hair air dry and the curls are still defined and not frizzy. In comparison to the past, if I let me hair air dry I could barely see any curls at all.
The myth of glycerin drying out hair arises from a misunderstanding of the nature of humectants. Humectants attract moisture from the surrounding environment and hold onto it, helping to keep hair, skin, or whatever surface they are applied to hydrated. People believe that in very dry conditions, humectants can draw moisture from the hair or skin and potentially release it into the atmosphere, however, humectants have not been shown to 'release' the moisture they have absorbed. The primary function of a humectant is to attract and retain the moisture within its molecules. They do not transfer or release moisture they've absorbed. This is why you do not use 100% glycerin. You have to dilute with water so that the moisture is already absorbed into its molecules before you transfer it to your hair or skin. So for as long as the hydrated glycerin molecules remain in your hair or on your skin, your hair and skin will remain hydrated irrespective of the weather.
Used Glycerin for the first time today. Love how my hair feels but may have used a tat bit too much, my scalp feels a bit sensitive. My hair usually dries out after a few hours of having applied my moisturiser, but NOT today. My hair feels lush. Going to add more water to the mixture next time and see if my scalp prefers that. Thank you for the video very informative
Glycerin has never made my hair dry. It hused to make my hair frizzy and I stopped using it. But I tried a month or so ago and it seems to be working for me this time round.
@@CoilyDiaries yes, I used way too much I think. Now I use a tablespoon to a cup and a half of either aloe juice & water mix or hibiscus tea. I can't remember how much I used the previous time but it was DEF more than 1 tbsp.
I live in north Europe and after watching your video on glycerine I bought and started using it. It was during the summer and my hair was looking great. However now that it's winter, I used glycerine and it was catastrophic to my hair. My hair gets so dry and oh my God I have to put it away. So from my experience, it doesn't work at all with my hair now it's snowing much
I can make a video on youtube how I only use glycerin and water to grow my hair and my video will get deleted because of hair brands like shea moisture and mielle. Glycerin keeps my hair moisturize for days. Ever product I use my hair will end up dry in 1 hour. They want you to keep buying their products. It's best to get a healthy shampoo to clean the scalp and conditioner and leave in condition. That's the only thing you need to buy and gel for style
I am loving your videos! And, I plan to use your moisturizer technique. Do you use aloe gel or juice, and is there a difference in the effect. I have always preferred the gel but I am not sure if it is the best choice.
@@CoilyDiaries I meant to ask the name of the wig that was in a puff, like a hat on your head, not sure if it was this video. It was by Asteria? I could not find it on the site.
If you grew up in Zambia in the 80s, you definitely have lots of experience with glycerine. We applied it on our skin and minutes later there would be 'beads of water' forming. This shows you that glycerine is pulling water molecules to the area where glycerine was applied. We just didn't know the science and fancy term back then. Our grandmas added it to their top society body lotion. I can go on and on but just do your hair a gigantic favour and buy yourself some good quality glycerine.
While I absolutely love glycerin and also don't think it dries out hair in low-humidity environments, I would just like to point out that hair product manufacturers are not the most trustworthy people when it comes to giving honest, accurate information about ingredients. The point you make about them is... I believe you, I just don't trust product manufacturers as a source of information. I think we all know that they will say, or hide, whatever they have to to sell products, and they wrongfully market products all the time.
Sis this is very true! I wish there were laws in place that actually protected the consumer. my hope is that most of them don’t cause anything detrimental to the hair.
I think glycerin is good for people with lower porosity hair. I have naturally high porosity hair and products formulated with high amounts of glycerin dry my hair out. This is what I have experienced for myself, not what someone else has said about it. If glycerin works well for you thats great but it doesn't work well for everybody.
We really do have to try things out for ourselves. I have high porosity hair and glycerin has been a game changer for me! I don’t think I’ll go without it anymore, especially while protective styling. 💜
I feel like this video was made for me!!! I am very excited to get my glycerine on!!! I use glycerine but not 25%… more like 5% in water due to FEAR (False Evidence Appearing Real) that the dryness of my environment will make my hair dry with higher concentrations of glycerine. I am going to try that 25% ratio!!! Girl Friend!!! We will see what happens. I will check it out in a few days! ❤ Maybe a new game changer ????

so excited to hear you are finding success with my route ❤️
Wow ur story gave me déjà-vu.
How much castor oil do you use. And it's used on hair n scalp? Also what are the Rosemary oils used for? Thanks 😊

can you share your source stating glycerin closes the hair cuticles? appreciated 🌺
I'm so glad you did a video on this because I live in the Metro NY/NJ area and when it's cold, it's cold and when it's hot and humid, it's hot.
Glad you think so!😍

Girl this is the truth! Happy to see us making progress with the dry hair pandemic😅
Same!! Especially when it is stretched out. It’s so easy to detangle my hair now. Thank you for putting me on this
@@saphiralexandre9134 Yes! I have fine strands, so now detangling is much easier.
wow, how did you make the humectant water?
So you vaginally used it as a deep conditioner? Let me go try that 🙌🏾
Absolutely it is working for me and my hair is not getting dry 💕
Amazing👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

totally get this! glycerin in high amounts doesn’t work for “out styles”
Good Morning, So true.
I love using Glycerin. Have a good day today God-Bless you 🌸✨️
Thank you! You too!🌺
Glycerin is great when added to a spray bottle!❤
I love it!😍
@@CoilyDiaries can it be added to blue magic?

Thanks for clearing up the myths! Do you think it needs to be organic or is that not important?
You are welcome 🌺! Anything organic is better but any will do in my opinion.
I love the headband sis, where can i find it and this vegetable glycerin?

I'm using it in the winter and my hair is staying moisturize
Maybe you experienced too much moisture from the environment.

your video shouldn’t get deleted if you are simply sharing 🤔! great point raised ❤️
Hey! Id live to see a video on how exactly to use it.
already on the channel. just look for my moiturizing routine
Hi. Can I put glycerin into a herbal tea and use it as a leave in?
Yes
I am loving your videos! And, I plan to use your moisturizer technique. Do you use aloe gel or juice, and is there a difference in the effect. I have always preferred the gel but I am not sure if it is the best choice.
Haven’t tried gel. Like to keep things simple and honestly glycerin is enough to do the job. I use aloe juice🌺

Hello, how often can I use this routine.

@@CoilyDiaries thank you
Thanks for the info. ❤
Any time!🌺
Have you tried doing your wash day routines according your menstrual cycle?
😳 no! Is that a thing?
OMG! Too much.
@@cutenobi I agree!! We have enough to deal with.
Yes I am tired of dry hair. I am satisfied with growth so far but I cant retain length with dry hair.
I know what this is like! So frustrating ☺️
@@CoilyDiaries 😊
So dont use clove, losmary,coffee water for spray in your hair???
did I say that? which part of the video are you referring to? Do what works for you!
I love Glycerine
❤️❤️❤️❤️ team glycerin!
@@CoilyDiaries hi l'm going to try from today. My hair is very dry.
