I recently got the Every Strand deep conditioning masque after trying and loving the satchet. I also restocked my Creme of Nature Moisture and Shine Shampoo and my ORS moisturizer 😊
I purchased 3 bottles of the Keracare sulfate free hyrdrating detangling shampoo from my local beauty supply store. Also, I’ve ordered the Affirm 5 in 1 reconstructor, and Keracare conditioning creme hairdress online. My online purchases will be delivered this week. I love shopping for hair care products. It is therapeutic for me. ❤️👍🏾. The beauty supply store that you was in is like a candy store!
Hey Val, I wanted to take the time to really thank you for all the information you are sharing with us. For the past 2 days, I have been devouring your blog posts and videos. I relaxed my BSL natural hair in September of last year and by March I had to chop it all off since my ends were just breaking off at the slightest touch. After my big chop my hair was still dry, wouldn't hold moisture for more than a couple of hours and would still break like crazy. After watching tons of youtube videos I came to the conclusion that I had high porosity hair and that I needed protein. I bought the Redken Anti-snap, olaplex nr3, Aphogee 2 min and even did a gelatin treatment. Well, my hair got even stiffer. After reading your post on moisture deficiency, I realized I was lacking MOISTURE. So I looked at your washday video maybe 5 times haha and copied your routine to the tee (with what I have at the moment...college student here T.T) 1) Pre-poo with coconut oil + olive oil + Apogee 2 min 2) Diluted my sulfate shampoo with water since I don't have any sulfate-free shampoo (probably also contributing to my dry hair) 3) Deep conditioned with a Garnier lovely blends avocado and shea hair mask. It has fatty alcohols, oils, and chlorides. I used my hooded dryer for the first time in months! I deep conditioned for 5 hours with a plastic bag, steaming for 10 minutes every hour. I really wanted to give my hair a moisture boost. I also added coconut oil, olive oil, and glycerine. 4) Moisturized with a Garnier leave-in conditioner from the same line as the hair mask, which also has fatty alcohols, oils, and chlorides.No more protein leave-in for now! And sealed with Jojoba oil. Also used a t-shirt to dry and mostly finger detangled! It actually took my hair a couple of hours to dry for the first time in months! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. I am so sad that I found all this info after letting go of my long hair. But hey, I have now so that's all that counts. In 2 days I have learned so so much about ingredients and I can now buy products with actual knowledge. I am now keeping a hair journal with everything that I am learning, inspired by your yearly top 10 posts. For anyone interested in what I learned so far: - I lose the most hair when detangling because I always raked through my wet hair with conditioner. Today I only detangled on damp hair after washing my hair and letting it dry in braids to stretch it (4a-4b). Started with my fingers and then used my Denman brush with only 3 rows spaced out. - My hair hates being moisturized with a liquid first then a leave-in then oil. My dried hair became much softer when I just did leave-in + jojoba oil. I discovered this halfway through moisturizing my hair. The back was already dry but applying only my leave-in conditioner softened it right back up. Snapping sound reduced by 70% by doing this alone !!! - KNOW HOW TO DETANGLE. My new rules are to only detangle on damp, stretched hair fingers first and then my modified Denman brush from root to tip. Yes, I said from ROOT to TIP. Much less tension on my poor old ends. I just gently and slowly worked the tangles out starting from the roots, just like most of us already do starting from the ends. I would usually lose a ball of hair the size of my palm, today that ball was not even an inch wide, and looking in my sink I only had +-20 short broken pieces compared to the hundreds all over my shoulders, bathroom floor, sink, the bathtub somehow, working itself to the hallway, etc. It's not perfect yet, but a HUGE step in the right direction. If you made it this far. Thank you for reading, hope it helped haha. Visit www.hairliciousinc.com, you won't even need RUclips after reading her blog. Val, once again thank you! I had to express my gratitude so you know that all the effort you put into your content does not fall on deaf ears! I have made all this progress just this weekend alone thanks to you! I am actually looking forward to seeing how much I will progress in these next 12 months!
Your first paragraph sounds like how my hair was. you see🤔 the thing is relaxers take out 50% of the protein in your hair, that's why it breaks and there's no moisture. I suggest you chop it off and be a natural🙂. you might think that it's a lot of work but it's really not 🚫. if you wear a weave that's all the more reason to go natural instead of relaxing because you don't show your hair anyway. anyway just something to think about🤔👀I hope that didn't make you mad. I'm just trying to help because a lot of us go through a lot of heartbreak and pain with our hair try to deal with a relaxer that really is a hard chemical that leaves your hair dead and lifeless. we spend so much 💰 on products trying to revive it.also you'll save tons of money on product. have a nice dayoh and there's tons of RUclips videos in the natural community that have excellent hair tips on how to take care of it 🙂
@@monie948 This is so embarrassing but my hair just needed a trim. I trimmed of 3 inches and the breakage has disappeared. My ends literally looked like a broom. I already did a big chop 8 months ago, my second big chop btw. I still had some relaxed ends because I didn't have enough new growth back then, those relaxed ends were the culprit of my excessive breakage. So after my trim 2 weeks ago I am now fully natural I was natural for 5 years before that so I already know my natural hair. I grew my hair last time with box braids but had a lot of breakage around the base of the braid and also because I wouldn't wash or moisturize my hair often in braids. This time around I am growing my hair with wash and go's and co-washing my hair daily/ every other day. My hair never gets the chance to dry out and then I cleanse every Sunday. My hair has been so soft and bouncy and my curls are being trained to be defined, which I never did before. Look at Antony Dickey's videos on youtube about wash and go's. He believes natural hair should be conditioned almost daily in the shower. So far my hair has been loving it. And I vowed to never wear a weave, braids, etc to protective style ever again. A lot of naturals say it's protective styling but we never even once see their hair. I texlaxed my BSL hair a year ago because I was tired of wearing box braids and wanted to enjoy my hair. I was so conditioned that the only way to retain length was to always hide and "protect" my hair. With my new routine since I am co-washing almost daily, I only use my fingers and my hair never gets the chance to get tangled since I am finger detangling almost daily. The breakage went from wandering around the house to literally maybe 20 strands in my sink and most of them with a white bulb, so I am very very happy. I think my hair just cannot tolerate relaxers, lesson learned I guess haha
@@toodles6734 "I think my hair just cannot tolerate relaxers" nobody's hair can tolerate them. they deaden the hair nobody what 4c type you have. anyway, Im glad youre a natural. have a nice day!
Nobody? Some do! Look at this RUclipsr, her hair is healthier than some natural hair we see. Care is important ✨️. Relaxing us an option, so is staying natural, whatever works for you, go for it .
IKR our beauty supply stores aren't as big as theirs and it's not clustered and closed in. I hate the beauty supply stores here I get claustrophobic in them.
@penny44224 Ok, thank you! I use the aphogee two step treatment every 6 weeks or so, but I just might try the ORS mayo. I'm also curious to see how it smells..lol
@@Cusp_of_magic yes I do follow with a moisturizing deep conditioner and I just started telling myself that I will do it at least once or twice a perm cycle as. needed depending on what my hair feels like after doing the strand test.
I just found you through curly chemistry. Love your content. I’m totally natural but I think your tips can help naturals as well as relaxed hair. Your hair is beautiful & your moisturizing tips are bomb! 💚
I miss you on hairlista like seriously i learnt so much.I do strictly ayurvedic my hair is now heading to my butt thriving and growing like a weed.Blessings
That Keracare is the bomb, I need to order the tub again. The Moisture Right is good, I tried their products. My favorite is the Moisture Right leave-in conditioner. The laminate spray is really oily but I guess it would be good for the winter months. I will be using it again soon.
I just got my hair relaxed about 3 weeks ago. It turned out great, but there is an underprocessed area in the back left. Any corrective relaxer tips? Thanks for all of the helpful videos!
I envy your beauty supply store! I live in the US, in a predominantly white town and our Sally's store is the ONLY beauty supply store in my area. The ethnic hair care section was reduced to 2 small shelves years ago. I order my products online or drive 30 minutes to the neighboring state.
Wow! That’s kind of similar to my situation. The closest BSS to me is Sally’s but I make the 20 minute trip to this BSS when I need to restock which isn’t too often.
I've just restocked on my kiddy relaxer. I just bought the relaxer for kids called, "Africa's Best Organics in Regular Strength," and I also bought a bottle of Mane N Tail Gentle Clarifying Shampoo. Within the next couple of weeks I'm planning on buying some more stuff. So, look out!
I no longer frequent Clore. They are *very* anti-Black. I now support a Black woman-owned spot in Etobicoke - Hair Granted! 200 Queens Plate Drive. Large, bright store with friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend.
I watch your videos from France and I am so grateful to you that you share all your information with us I've only been watching your videos for 2 days but I've learned so much Merci Beaucoup ;) my hair is saved thanks to you
I went on Amazon & got the big tub of humecto conditioner, As I Am So Much Moisture leave in & a GIANT BOTTLE of Jojoba oil. 🤗🤗🤗 I'm so excited! -- I don't mind spending $90 when it comes to your recommendations, AT all. -- It'll be here Tuesday. I can tell that conditioner is the truth. When I woke up Amazon had 15 left, by time I went on break only 5 were left so I had to hurry up & purchase it. 🤣🤣🤣 So far just As I Am leave in & Jojoba oil have been working for my relaxed hair & I'm so happy about it. I've been doing LOC & LCO wondering why my hair felt the way it did when honestly all I really needed was LO. I'm low porosity & I don't need much I see. I also just purchased the Pantene Pro-V Truly Relaxed shampoo & conditioner a couple days ago as well. Haven't seen many reviews on it but I'm going to try it out & see what happens. 🤞🤞🤞 Olive Oil Replenishing Conditioner is next on my list to get. It's saved on my Wish List on Amazon. 😊 Thanks so much Val. You're such a great teacher. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Awww 😍 it’s so exciting to see when others take interest and invest I their REAL their hair. This is an amazing haul sis!! I hope you enjoy them. The As I Am Leave-in is another gem. I’ve heard nothing but great things about it. I’m honoured to be considered a “teacher”🤣😍Thanks for the luv, hun!!
@@HairliciousInc I think I've heard you say it before but do you recommend protein treatments be used with heat & moisture treatments used with a steamer? I already have a steamer saved on Amazon (😂) if you recommend it, I just need to find a decent priced/good quality deep conditioning bonnet.
@@elizabethmary2439 lol. Not necessarily. You can use a steamer for either moisture or protein. I prefer to use it with my moisture conditioners. I usually use my steamer every other week.
I was so excited that you took us along to the beauty supply store I almost screamed (you would think I've never been to the beauty supply store before?? LOL!). So that ORS protein conditioner... GIRL, make sure you follow up with a moisturizing DC PUHLEEEEZE!!!! I had a very bad experience. The instructions did not say to do so (my stupid mistake, I should have known better...anything with protein should be followed up with moisture...no matter what!). Just be careful, but I know you are extremely diligent, Btw, my hair HATED IT!! It didn't put no toot in my horn ("hair"). Flashback: ruclips.net/video/B4ojGuA33X4/видео.html
I absolutely love keracare, I need to buy the tub. It's been awhile since I bought ORS replenishing conditioner and Aphogee 2 minute reconstructor is the bomb. Another great video thank you so much.
I literally just started following you and the products you use are amazing. My hair is kinda like yours as far as texture. But i did have a question. If i wanted to get braids, what would you suggest to use on the scalp?
Hi Val Thanks for the video and tour😊 You know I love the kera care tub conditioner. I'm getting low got to re-order. Again thanks for the lovely video❤
Great haul! I need to go shopping in my hair stash...I know I have at least a couple of these products and haven't used them in a while or bought and never used, lol.
Heyyyyyy girl!! I recently stocked up on As I am So much moisture and their scalp oil. I also got me some 2 minute reconstructer by Aphogee and some argan oil. 🙂🙂
Hi, I love your products haul. I purchased a lot of those same products from watching your videos. I also purchased a hair steamer because my hair is low porosity. Would you suggest using the steamer with a hair mask or just with the deep conditioners or does it matter?
Sis, I truly want to thank you for your faves video featuring the Keracare Humecto. It has been amazing on my hair and now a Staple in my regimen. I just purchased my first 5lb tub this morning. Be safe and blessings always👍🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️
@@HairliciousInc I love it, it really is the best Deep Conditioner out there for me. I’ve tried many and this really does it for me. My hair looks and feels so good. Thanks again and keep up the good work.
Can you please let me know how to get in touch in with your keracare distributor??🥺 I live in Toronto and I’m tired of buying the 8 oz Humecto lol the tub would be amazing!
Hey Val! So grateful for your channel! Question: With the ORS Olive Oil Replenishing Conditioner, do you only use it when you do not do protein or deep condition? Would you put it on dry hair like you do the 2 minute aphogee or use it after you shampoo? Thanks!
Hi hun. It really depends. Sometimes I put it on dry hair as a Prepoo other times I’ll shampoo first and then use it. It all depends on how my hair feels.
Your braids out is beautiful I love it :-) that s-curl does work doesn't it I love that S- curl I've only been using it for about maybe 4 years now but it works really well as in keeping your new growth and your hair so moisturized and soft I love it 😊 that was in your cart maybe it was already in that basket when you picked it up but I seen them I thought maybe you wanted those two :-)
Thank you so much!! Yeah, Scurl has been a staple of mine for years! Love it dearly. I have my own stash so this time I got more for the hubs and my son🥰
I've treid the ffirm creme press, it works really well with relaxed hair and keeps my hair straight. I'm not a fan of the smell though. I've also tried the Affirm Leave In, wasn;t blown away tbh. The ORS hair mayo I like... not crazy about it.
That beauty supply store is a mall! 😳😂 You put me on to Scurl during the Hairlista days and I’m still using it 10ish 8+ years later. I even have a bottle in my 18 month olds room. We have completely different hair textures but it works beautifully on both of us.
Just find your channel and I am loving it very informative and interesting Just start relaxing my hair and I hope to learn a lot from you how to take care of my hair thank you so much first questions my hair is very thin what can I use to give it a little more body?
I started shopping at Clores after seeing you post about them on IG. Sadly, they don't carry the KeraCare humectant conditioner so I've haven't had the opportunity to use it yet
Yes, Cloré is my go-to spot for anything hair care related. As for the Humecto, they used to sell it in the BSS. Now it’s either online or from my KC Distributor.
Hi am small RUclips too am on a relaxed hair journey and so far I tryed palmer's olive oil products, cream of nature, tresemer...and so far I okay with cream of nature shampoo it makes my hair soft than I put in the conditioner and my hair dries up so I don't know if sulfate free conditioner makes hair dry or am I supposed to mix it with some oil or ? Plus when you started your hear journey did you try alot of hair products before finding your staples .plus if I buy a product i try finishing the whole bottle so I give it enough chance to see if it works
In the beginning it’s all about trial and error. Eventually you’ll find the right products for your hair. It takes time. CON sulfate free shampoo has silicones in it so that may be what’s causing the dryness. Try TGIN moisture rich shampoo, Keracare hydrating shampoo or Shea Moisture Manuka Honey Shampoo. Hope that helps!!
Hi Val, great video thabks a lot ✨ I am from France and here they do not sell humecto keracare in shops. On what website can I buy humecto keracare? I am scared of buying fake products on amazon :/ do you recommend a specific distributor?
Great video! Can you share the information for your Humecto conditioner distributor? This would be greatly appreciated! Amazon.ca doesn't sell the tub.
For lazy braid outs I’ll use my daily moisturizer ie. So Much Moisture Hair Lotion or Scurl. If I’m doing an official braid out with the ends curled, I’ll use the CON Buttermilk leave-in etc.
Nice haul. What is the difference between a leave in and a moisturizer? Is it that the leave In is for wash days only and the moisturizer is for daily use. I'm thinking that is the difference but not sure. Please let me know. I hear people use these terms interchangeably and I'm so confused. Thank you.
Thanks!!! A leave-in conditioner is a used after wash day. Typically pH balanced to help close the cuticles, increase detangling etc. However, they can be used interchangeably depending on the ingredients. I’ve done this before with great results ie. As I Am So Much Moisture. This moisturizer contains aloe Vera which is very conditioning, pH balanced and closes the cuticles. It’s all about the ingredients.
@@HairliciousInc Hi Val, yes ma’am that’s kinda what I mean. Like what products do you use for each part of your regimen at this moment. I looked at your videos but seems like maybe you’ve rotated some products? Some Of the videos are older so I understand. I’m relaxing my hair this week and wanted to get everything I needed. ☺️ Thanks for responding. I love your channel ❤️
Did she ever give the checklist ? I was wondering the same as I am relaxed again . I been binge watching a lot of he videos but since some are older I got confused again on which products she uses on which days and which days she does certain things like co wash / moisturizing & sealing/ DCing and etc . @hairlicious Inc are you able to give us a quick run down on those things that way we can refer back to the videos based on your specific day to day routines ? I know we won’t do each thing exactly how you do each day but it’ll gives us a general idea so we can create our own day to day routine .. pleaseeeee respond lol ! We need this lol Thank you 🙏🏽
Hey girl! Comment & let me know what product(s) you recently RESTOCKED below💕👇🏾
I recently got the Every Strand deep conditioning masque after trying and loving the satchet. I also restocked my Creme of Nature Moisture and Shine Shampoo and my ORS moisturizer 😊
Nice. Did you get the Shea Butter & Coconut oil DC from the Every Strand line?
Sounds good!! Have you tried the Kenya Moore Growth Serum before?
@@HairliciousInc Yesss that's the one. Unfortunately I haven't seen many reviews. Have you tried it and do you like it?
I purchased 3 bottles of the Keracare sulfate free hyrdrating detangling shampoo from my local beauty supply store. Also, I’ve ordered the Affirm 5 in 1 reconstructor, and Keracare conditioning creme hairdress online. My online purchases will be delivered this week. I love shopping for hair care products. It is therapeutic for me. ❤️👍🏾. The beauty supply store that you was in is like a candy store!

I've only been watching your videos for 2 days but I've learned so much
Merci Beaucoup ;)
my hair is saved thanks to you
I need that humecto hookup, cuz I can't find it anywhere in Toronto anymore! Keracare products in general are a struggle to locate 😫😫
I went on Amazon & got the big tub of humecto conditioner, As I Am So Much Moisture leave in & a GIANT BOTTLE of Jojoba oil. 🤗🤗🤗 I'm so excited! -- I don't mind spending $90 when it comes to your recommendations, AT all. -- It'll be here Tuesday. I can tell that conditioner is the truth. When I woke up Amazon had 15 left, by time I went on break only 5 were left so I had to hurry up & purchase it. 🤣🤣🤣 So far just As I Am leave in & Jojoba oil have been working for my relaxed hair & I'm so happy about it. I've been doing LOC & LCO wondering why my hair felt the way it did when honestly all I really needed was LO. I'm low porosity & I don't need much I see. I also just purchased the Pantene Pro-V Truly Relaxed shampoo & conditioner a couple days ago as well. Haven't seen many reviews on it but I'm going to try it out & see what happens. 🤞🤞🤞 Olive Oil Replenishing Conditioner is next on my list to get. It's saved on my Wish List on Amazon. 😊 Thanks so much Val. You're such a great teacher. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Awww 😍 it’s so exciting to see when others take interest and invest I their REAL their hair. This is an amazing haul sis!! I hope you enjoy them. The As I Am Leave-in is another gem. I’ve heard nothing but great things about it. I’m honoured to be considered a “teacher”🤣😍Thanks for the luv, hun!!
@@HairliciousInc I think I've heard you say it before but do you recommend protein treatments be used with heat & moisture treatments used with a steamer?
I already have a steamer saved on Amazon (😂) if you recommend it, I just need to find a decent priced/good quality deep conditioning bonnet.
@@elizabethmary2439 lol. Not necessarily. You can use a steamer for either moisture or protein. I prefer to use it with my moisture conditioners. I usually use my steamer every other week.
That Humecto conditioner is EVERYTHING!👌🏽🙋🏽♀️💗
Omg, that so funny- I literally just restock my keracare humecto DC and the detangle shampoo too .:)..
Ayeee💃🏾 Great minds think alike💕 Enjoy them sis. They are literally my favs.
I was so excited that you took us along to the beauty supply store I almost screamed (you would think I've never been to the beauty supply store before?? LOL!). So that ORS protein conditioner... GIRL, make sure you follow up with a moisturizing DC PUHLEEEEZE!!!! I had a very bad experience. The instructions did not say to do so (my stupid mistake, I should have known better...anything with protein should be followed up with moisture...no matter what!). Just be careful, but I know you are extremely diligent,
Btw, my hair HATED IT!! It didn't put no toot in my horn ("hair").
Flashback: ruclips.net/video/B4ojGuA33X4/видео.html
I absolutely love keracare, I need to buy the tub. It's been awhile since I bought ORS replenishing conditioner and Aphogee 2 minute reconstructor is the bomb. Another great video thank you so much.
Same! They are definitely staples!! Thanks for watching, sis💕
Where do you buy a tub of it from?
@@kiasmn I got mine from Amazon.
Yup. The link is in the description box!
You are an excellent presenter! So appreciate all of your recommendations!
Hey girl ! Just ordered my keracare humecto conditioner 🙌
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. Keracare lover right here! 🤚🏾
I literally just started following you and the products you use are amazing. My hair is kinda like yours as far as texture. But i did have a question. If i wanted to get braids, what would you suggest to use on the scalp?
Thank you. Do you mean in terms of oil?! Castor oil!
TFS I recently restocked my olaplex #3,4,5 💚
Love Olaplex👏🏾💕
Hi Val Thanks for the video and tour😊 You know I love the kera care tub conditioner. I'm getting low got to re-order. Again thanks for the lovely video❤
Great haul! I need to go shopping in my hair stash...I know I have at least a couple of these products and haven't used them in a while or bought and never used, lol.
her hair, skin, eyes shes just perfect
Heyyyyyy girl!! I recently stocked up on As I am So much moisture and their scalp oil. I also got me some 2 minute reconstructer by Aphogee and some argan oil. 🙂🙂
Hi, I love your products haul. I purchased a lot of those same products from watching your videos. I also purchased a hair steamer because my hair is low porosity. Would you suggest using the steamer with a hair mask or just with the deep conditioners or does it matter?
Awww that’s amazing!! You can use the steamer with deep conditioner or a hair mask. Your hair will still reap the benefits!!
Thank you for responding. I will be doing a deep conditioner with steam tonight .Again, thank you!
I Enjoyed this Review thank you for sharing
Sis, I truly want to thank you for your faves video featuring the Keracare Humecto. It has been amazing on my hair and now a Staple in my regimen. I just purchased my first 5lb tub this morning. Be safe and blessings always👍🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️
Amazing! So glad that helped you. I hope you enjoy it!!
@@HairliciousInc I love it, it really is the best Deep Conditioner out there for me. I’ve tried many and this really does it for me. My hair looks and feels so good. Thanks again and keep up the good work.
@@kingstonsfinest9948 where in Kingston do you buy Keracare products?
Can you please let me know how to get in touch in with your keracare distributor??🥺 I live in Toronto and I’m tired of buying the 8 oz Humecto lol the tub would be amazing!
Hey Val! So grateful for your channel! Question: With the ORS Olive Oil Replenishing Conditioner, do you only use it when you do not do protein or deep condition?
Would you put it on dry hair like you do the 2 minute aphogee or use it after you shampoo?
Thanks!
Hi hun. It really depends. Sometimes I put it on dry hair as a Prepoo other times I’ll shampoo first and then use it. It all depends on how my hair feels.
@@HairliciousInc Oh ok! Glad to know it can be either or. Thank you so much! God bless
Your braids out is beautiful I love it :-) that s-curl does work doesn't it I love that S- curl I've only been using it for about maybe 4 years now but it works really well as in keeping your new growth and your hair so moisturized and soft I love it 😊 that was in your cart maybe it was already in that basket when you picked it up but I seen them I thought maybe you wanted those two :-)
Thank you so much!! Yeah, Scurl has been a staple of mine for years! Love it dearly. I have my own stash so this time I got more for the hubs and my son🥰
I was just washing my hair. I have the 2minute reconstructor my hair right now.
I've treid the ffirm creme press, it works really well with relaxed hair and keeps my hair straight. I'm not a fan of the smell though. I've also tried the Affirm Leave In, wasn;t blown away tbh. The ORS hair mayo I like... not crazy about it.
Can we get Mary’s information to buy from her please???
Girl I just asked how I can get the humecto too. Hopefully we get an answer
Hi ladies, please DM me on IG or send me an email and I’ll provide you with Mary’s details for the Humecto.
@@HairliciousInc Thank you gorgeous ✨
That beauty supply store is a mall! 😳😂 You put me on to Scurl during the Hairlista days and I’m still using it 10ish 8+ years later. I even have a bottle in my 18 month olds room. We have completely different hair textures but it works beautifully on both of us.
OMG I love Cloré, we do have here in Ottawa. Love the channel girl. Keep it up👌👍🤗
Thank you Marina!! I love Cloré Beauty too!!
What!! I appreciate your support and loyalty over the years💕💕 Yessss, Scurl works wonders for most hair types!!
@@HairliciousInc S-Curl is a must-have! ❤❤
OMG, where is this place???😍😍😍
It's my dream place
In the large plaza near Food Basics at t the south west corner of Markham road And Sheppard Avenue in Scarborough.
Great vlog😊 I use almost all the same products you purchased.
I am using the whole brand of MoisturRight and it’s a bomb!!! It’s much better than the standard KeraCare brand especially the mask and shampoo. 😍😍😍😍
Great product haul, I love MoistRight line, by Keracare.
Thank you!! I appreciate the feedback hun💕
Wow I wish there's this kind of store in Nigeria
Just find your channel and I am loving it very informative and interesting Just start relaxing my hair and I hope to learn a lot from you how to take care of my hair thank you so much first questions my hair is very thin what can I use to give it a little more body?
Welcome, hun💕 Is your hair naturally thin/fine?!
Your beauty supply store is amazing
Affirm conditioning system WORKS!!!
I haven't used one ORS product i didn't like. The hair mayonnaise is my favorite
I have a lot of grey hair and would like to know which hair color brand or product do you recommend to use?
Hi. What are you thoughts on using dry shampoo mid week vs. an actual wash? Have you ever tried a dry shampoo? By the way my hair is relaxed. Thanks.
You got in and restocked right before the lockdown!
Your vibe is just amazing✨ love all the way from South Africa.
What is a great detangling conditioner for relaxed hair. My hair is like straw when I wash it except after a fresh relaxer.
Girl !!! Your glowing and its serious ✨ 💛
I restocked Aussie Moist recently. I love these kinds of videos 💕
Hello, i like ur videos
When you live in the UK and you see all of the products you can’t get in the beauty supply over here 🥺 so sad
What is a good relaxers to put in hair my hair is soft I'm getting ready to go a short cut
The hair ! It's everything 🥰🥰
That brand AFFIRM is the best it is super expensive in Trinidad
I started shopping at Clores after seeing you post about them on IG. Sadly, they don't carry the KeraCare humectant conditioner so I've haven't had the opportunity to use it yet
Yes, Cloré is my go-to spot for anything hair care related. As for the Humecto, they used to sell it in the BSS. Now it’s either online or from my KC Distributor.
@@HairliciousInc
How did you get your own distributor?
I mention the whole story behind this in my Keracare Humecto video🥰
I have recently permed my hair & have been recommended the affirm products. Please let us know what you think. Thank you
I’m moving to Toronto...my goodness ♥️
Love your hair! Your beauty supply store is huge.
That beauty store is the one I always go to, because its walking distance from my apartment. Small world.
Do you have a video on using the Apohgee 2 minute reconstructed ?
Yes! My wash day video!
Hi am small RUclips too am on a relaxed hair journey and so far I tryed palmer's olive oil products, cream of nature, tresemer...and so far I okay with cream of nature shampoo it makes my hair soft than I put in the conditioner and my hair dries up so I don't know if sulfate free conditioner makes hair dry or am I supposed to mix it with some oil or ? Plus when you started your hear journey did you try alot of hair products before finding your staples .plus if I buy a product i try finishing the whole bottle so I give it enough chance to see if it works
I love your channel though from Namibia
In the beginning it’s all about trial and error. Eventually you’ll find the right products for your hair. It takes time. CON sulfate free shampoo has silicones in it so that may be what’s causing the dryness. Try TGIN moisture rich shampoo, Keracare hydrating shampoo or Shea Moisture Manuka Honey Shampoo. Hope that helps!!
How do I get my hands on the tub of humecto? I’m in Toronto
Email me and I’ll send you the details.
This video makes me so relaxed
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Thanks for watching, sis!
Are you going to put the hair lists website back up(:
Hi Val, great video thabks a lot ✨ I am from France and here they do not sell humecto keracare in shops.
On what website can I buy humecto keracare? I am scared of buying fake products on amazon :/ do you recommend a specific distributor?
Coucou, je me permets de répondre sur le site Lookfantastic tu trouveras.
Thanks for sharing with us 🙏✅✅💙💙
I love the hair!❤️
Thank you 💕
Great video! Can you share the information for your Humecto conditioner distributor? This would be greatly appreciated! Amazon.ca doesn't sell the tub.
For sure. Send me an email or DM on Instagram and I’ll send you her info.
Sorry. I don't have Instagram. What is your email?
It’s on the description box 💕
Wow I used to loooooove my s curl no drip, I stopped using it when I found out that it has DMDMH, the same thing that they are suing Tresemme over 🤔.
Lovely blog nd will definitely check the product out
Thank you!! They are my favs💕
Wow! That store!
That’s just the product section. Didn’t even look at the wigs/hair/equipment 😍
So you only used S curl and the oil for the braid out ? Or the creme of nature hair milk and then s curl and the oil ?
For lazy braid outs I’ll use my daily moisturizer ie. So Much Moisture Hair Lotion or Scurl. If I’m doing an official braid out with the ends curled, I’ll use the CON Buttermilk leave-in etc.
I love me a good trip to the beauty supply store!
Went into the beauty store for some lipgloss and came out with 200 dollars worth of stuff. A messsssss.
Is keracare conditioner good for low porosity hair?
Nice haul. What is the difference between a leave in and a moisturizer? Is it that the leave In is for wash days only and the moisturizer is for daily use. I'm thinking that is the difference but not sure. Please let me know. I hear people use these terms interchangeably and I'm so confused. Thank you.
Thanks!!! A leave-in conditioner is a used after wash day. Typically pH balanced to help close the cuticles, increase detangling etc. However, they can be used interchangeably depending on the ingredients. I’ve done this before with great results ie. As I Am So Much Moisture. This moisturizer contains aloe Vera which is very conditioning, pH balanced and closes the cuticles. It’s all about the ingredients.
@@HairliciousInc Thank you!
Do you have a basic list of everything we need to follow your regimen?
You mean a hair care checklist?
@@HairliciousInc Hi Val, yes ma’am that’s kinda what I mean. Like what products do you use for each part of your regimen at this moment. I looked at your videos but seems like maybe you’ve rotated some products? Some Of the videos are older so I understand. I’m relaxing my hair this week and wanted to get everything I needed. ☺️
Thanks for responding. I love your channel ❤️
Did she ever give the checklist ? I was wondering the same as I am relaxed again . I been binge watching a lot of he videos but since some are older I got confused again on which products she uses on which days and which days she does certain things like co wash / moisturizing & sealing/ DCing and etc .
@hairlicious Inc are you able to give us a quick run down on those things that way we can refer back to the videos based on your specific day to day routines ? I know we won’t do each thing exactly how you do each day but it’ll gives us a general idea so we can create our own day to day routine .. pleaseeeee respond lol ! We need this lol
Thank you 🙏🏽
Omg is Mary from Trinidad? I can swear I heard an accent.
Ikr. I was scrolling the comments to see if anyone heard that too. It caught me off guard.
I use the hair mayo as my protein treatment. I don't trust myself with aphogee protein treatments yet lol
Lol. I hear you. That’s how I feel about hard proteins🥴
Hi, love your waves. Cunning Mom has a channel and is a dedicated affirm product user.
Thank you💕I appreciate the recommendation.
Great video. That's a nice store
What relaxer u use
Nice video.
Please where can I get Kera care products?
Thank you💕 You can get them at your local BSS if they carry it. Otherwise, online ie. Amazon or the Keracare website.
@@HairliciousInc yes I got them today at the beauty store. Thanks.
Enjoy 😉
I agree. The impulse buying is real🤣
Where Is this beauty store located?
In Toronto.
