My hair almost shriveled up and fell out of my head when rice water was trending. Every channel was claiming it would work miracles and grow your hair out. No one ever said it was a VERY potent protein treatment. That was almost 2 years ago though and my hair is lovely and healthy and well past my shoulders now. Now, I make it a point to do my research before trying anything new and your channel has been a huge help. I honestly thank the Lord Jesus Christ for all the information you share. God bless you XD
Omg YES🙏🏽That silly trend broke my hair off so bad!! These natural hair youtubers need to start giving disclaimers! When I tell you my hair was extremely brittle and dry....
I have, use, and love your products. Please consider filming a wash day and a "Week in the Life of Green Beauty's Hair" videos. Thank you in advance!!!!
I can attest that your Green Beauty Real Protein Treatment is the real deal! It changed my hair for the better and ever since adding it regularly to my regimen my hair has grown and retained so much length. It’s only been 5 months so far and it’s the most effective product I use. I make sure to do a real protein treatment every 2 weeks!
How do you use the Real Protein Treatment? I have went to the website and didn't see any instructions in how to use the product. I have low porosity hair.
Pamela Walker I’m low porosity as well. The instructions for low and high porosity is on the bottle. I put 3 tbsp in one cup conditioner once a month. My hair loves it!
@@politereminder6284 My hair feels extremely dry after using products with a lot of glycerin or honey in them - and I mean d r y. Take TGIN's honey mask: my hair was soft after use but parched and brittle the next day... same thing with Alikay's Naturals Honey and Sage DC. I've also had terrible experiences with curl activators like Carefree Curls or Scurl, (which worked great when I was relaxed!), that Elasta QP H2 spray leave-in and Aunt Jackie's Knot On My Watch. They're full of glycerin and propylene glycol: my afro just shrivels up with rage and breaks off. My sister's hair loves them tho, go figure ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
soyness I have the same problem as well, I can’t seem to find any product that doesn’t have any form of humectant on it and it’s making my hair really dry and matted
the sheamoisture low porosity line is still available. i think they only got rid of one item. check target. i use that in the winter and warm up the leave in, thank goodness is all i can say. if not giovanni and neutrogenta triple moisture doesnt have protein

Shouldn't a wash with a good clarifying shampoo get rid of all the product buildup up at once? Why should one need 3-4 wash days? That would simply mean the shampoo being used is not good enough
Hi GreenBeauty 🌱💚 can you please share youre opinion about Behentrimonium Methosulfate, Cetyl Alcohol, Butylene Glycol in hair products It tends to give my hair buildup. Thank you for your information 😘
Yea, synthetic ingredients like the ones you listed are my current issue with conditioners and creamy products. They feel great at first but over time and for the long run they can be destructive. That’s why I like to stick with liquid based products and organic oils.
@@GreenBeauty so are you saying that conditioners can cause a problem? What do you use instead since B/methosulphate (mixed with water) is the main ingredient that makes up a basic conditioner! Looking forward to you discussion around that ingredient and cetyl alcohol! Stay blessed GB... 🙏🏿💖🧡💛💚💙💜🖤
Good information! Thx for the video! I’m low porosity and have been protein sensitive. I’m also finding out that I have hard water so that just complicates things further! Please do a video on the dangers and solutions of hard water. Thanks!
Thank you sooooo much for this video! I think a lot of us may have protein overload. I recently stopped using shampoo, conditioner and leave-ins with protein because my hair was breaking from protein overload. I had to get rid of almost every hair product in my cabinet because EVERYTHING contains protein nowadays. I don’t know why they add keratin, wheat protein, collagen, etc. to every hair product. I used to use TGIN Honey Deep Conditioner but now they’ve added protein to it. Ugh!!! It’s so annoying.
I share the same resentment. Very frustrating. Have you found any good products that are protein free and budget friendly? I have self-inflected high porosity hair :(
I recently found your channel. I realized that all the products I was using were weighing my strands down and causing a lot of breakage. I watched almost ten vids so far. I ordered THE REAL PROTEIN TREATMENT from you and I’m getting back to basics and keeping records of when and what I put in my hair. You must be a scientist, because you are very methodical. I was also going to purchase a leave in from another company, but when I watched your video on how to make my own leave in, I cancelled the order. I had all but one of the ingredients for the LI in my kitchen cabinet. So I went out and purchased the coconut oil. Though my hair is super coily, it is very finicky. I make my own Ayurvedic oils, my hair likes that. I also made a batch of your flaxseed gel. Wow it is super thick. I always felt the recipes I tried before used too much heat, so it came out semi gelatinous. I am looking for another way to extract more gel than I did this time. I don’t love the bottle method either. But I’ll find something soon. Thanks for straight to the point well researched info.
If your product was here in south Africa and I didn't have to ship I would have definitely bought your products. Thank you for your hard and informative work that you bless us with for free
I have normal porosity fine but dense hair and I'm not protein sensitive. My hair can handle small amounts of protein even if used every wash day. I don't use products that have too much protein cause those don't work. I just realized my hair doesn't like soy protein but it likes silk proteins rice protein, wheat protein and quinoa protein again in small quantities
Literally all my products have hydrolyzed keratin, rice water vegetable. I've focused on parabens, silicones, mineral oils an glycerine and no heat 😔 from transitioning. This has blown my mind. I was watching to learn more about porosity and my ends. Thank u
Oh wow I must've already been granted the knowledge from the cosmos. Lol I was so releieved when you said protien should be a stand alone product. I've been mixing a little hydrolyzed whey protien with water in a spray bottle. It's definitely better than mixing it with conditioner. Thanks for another great video!
I have high porosity hair and I use her Real Protein treatment twice a month. I’m getting great results. I do use a moisturizing deep conditioner afterwards to prevent dryness though.
Mizz Mention You’re welcome! For full reference, my hair is naturally high porosity, mostly S curls with some O’s (type 3C/4A) medium strands, but very high density. I did the Real Protein treatment again yesterday (following the directions on the bottle) and followed with a moisturizing deep conditioner. Afterwards, my hair was so shiny, bouncy and defined before I applied product and was less tangled. My hair also holds onto moisture a lot longer. I hope that info helps.
Great info, but I honestly cannot tell the difference on how my hair "feels" I only can judge on if I am gaining length or not. I clip my ends but if I put it in a "protective" style it seems like I lose length. I have only heard of protein treatments but not actually seen any. I use The Mane Choice, castor oil, lavender , Shea Moisture, and just found out about emu oil. I will try your products. Also, I only wash my hair once per month. Even then it isn't dirty. I know for me, I cannot let my hair get dry....I don't know what 4a 4 c, 4 b is. My hair is curly -like a jherri curl..lol, that is all I know. Thanks for the info.
can you do a video on silica/bamboo? 💕💕 not sure if you have already...I've heard good things about it, although i'm still on the fence cause I haven't seen many natural hair discussions on it...
You might want to check the composition of your products. I find that heavy oils and things that have fragrance high on the ingredient list make me itch. Good luck!
Removal of sebum from the scalp also causes itchy scalp after washing. Sebum maintains the scalp's pH, lubricates it and protects it from infection. Removing your scalp's sebum leaves the scalp bare and exposed to the environment and its air pollution, making it itch. It's the same as when washing your hands with liquid detergent (hand wash). It strips the hands of sebum, making them dry and itchy. The best thing to do is use gentler shampoos that don't strip the scalp of sebum, or omit commercial shampoos altogether and use natural cleansers that maintain scalp pH and don't completely strip the scalp e.g soapnuts, clays, herbal rinses rich in saponins etc. If you use synthetic products, you are likely going to have to use synthetic cleansers to remove the buildup (with the exception of clay being a very powerful natural cleanser), so it may be unavoidable that you get an itchy scalp from it. But if you switch to more natural products and maintain your scalp sebum, the itchiness may no longer be a problem.
I really love your videos it’s helps me in my hair journey 💕. I wanted to know if you can make a video about peanut milk and hair, the said that it’s a more powerful protein then the rice water, thanks I love what ur doing 😍😘
Hi green beauty please help me! My hair hates proteins any kind of proteins in conditioners or masks ! Can my hair grow without protein ? Can henna replace protein treatments ?
I love the content of your videos. Im so glad i subscribe to you channel. But i have a question is henna considered a protein? And how if any would you use it on low porosity hair?
Thank you so much for doing this video. Btw I love ❤️ love all your products. That protein treatment and spritz stabilizer of yours has given new life to my hair. I am low to medium porosity and interchange the protein treatment with the herbal hot oil treatment. When you do your bomb twist out do you use other products besides the spritz stabilizer and oil?
If you are trying to get the product build up out within 3-4 wash days, what do you do to your hair in the mean time? I have low porosity hair and my hair doesn't take protein well
Use a Clarifying shampoo instead of a special formula ( avoid treatment shampoo or conditioning shampoo etc); wash out all conditioner; then use a less creamy leave-in , favoring water-based or oily conditioners over thick creams in the meantime I think
Thank you for the informative video. Do you have a supplier of your products based in the UK? I'd like to order the protein treatment but wary of the shipping cost.
I used a new conditioner and suddenly I have so many hair breakages.. Can this because of the proteine..? and how do u recognize proteine on labels? Thank u 🤍
Pls I need help coz am feeling frustrated already. I recently joined d natural hair community n I have a major problem with protein n moisture. I have low porosity hair n I don't knw wat my hair needs. Is it moisture or protein? After I did a strand test my hair snapped n broke den tried anoda piece n it kept stretching n didn't curl back. Pls help me
Sounds like you need both in different parts of your head. I would use light oils when moisturizing, and cleaning your hair and scalp with aloe vera gel (you can find leaves at a local grocery store like giants or weis for $1 each) and/or doing ACV rinses for your scalp. Do this sparsely tho, over the course of 3 months to see results without overloading your hair
Hey Green Beauty can you clarify something you said pretty please with lots of cherries on top? You stated your protein treatment should be used as a stand alone but the directions say mix in a conditioner. Is it okay to dilute the protein treatment in water and then apply to hair as the treatment for so many minutes as you recommend?
royally_amused Hey 👋🏾 “stand alone” as in a stand alone project you can measure and mix with a condition yourself. You can try diluting the REAL Protein Treatment in water and using it like that but, it’s really concentrated you use a little bit at a time. Start with 2 tablespoons per 8 oz of water
Thank you for making this video! Although, I'm still kind of stuck and confused. I don't know if I have protein overload, moisture overload, need moisture, or need protein. I did the big chop on April 21 so now I have a twa. I don't know what my twa needs though. I was wondering if anyone could help me figure it out. The products that I usually use in my hair are Shea Moisture's Jamaican Black Castor Oil Shampoo and conditioner along with the Mielle Organics Avocado daily moisturizer hair milk but I currently (very recently) am switching to Shea Moisture Low-Porosity Protein-Free Shampoo along with the Shea Moisture Curl and Shine conditioner and the Mielle Organics Protein-Free Mongongo oil conditioner which I use as a deep conditioner (I still use the Mielle Organic Avocado hair milk as a daily moisturizer). I switched products and most of them are protein-free because I was afraid that the reason why my hair is the way it is was because of protein and that I needed moisture, but now I'm really confused. I wash my hair once a week and have only used the new products once so far but I haven't used the shampoo yet though (because I ordered these off of Amazon and the shampoo didn't arrive yet so I replaced it with the Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Shampoo as a substitute haha). My twa has kind of been crunchy when dry, soft when wet, it has this strange almost (I think) frizz but it's like some hair sticking up straight. It stays like that when my hair is wet and dry. My twa is gets dry and kind of crunchy hours after moisturizing it with Mielle Organic Avocado hair milk that I use everyday. I also want to mention that I sleep with a satin head wrap at night. Does anyone know what I need and what is wrong with my hair? Here's a list of the products I use and my symptoms: PRODUCTS I USE IN MY HAIR -Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Shampoo -Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Conditioner -Mielle Organics Avocado Hair Milk NEW HAIR PRODUCTS I RECENTLY BOUGHT -Shea Moisture Low Porosity Protein-Free Shampoo -Shea Moisture Coconut and Hibiscus Curl and Shine Conditioner -Mielle Organics Protein-Free Hydrating Mongongo Oil Condtioner -Mielle Organics Avocado Hair Milk (I've only used these new products once so far though) SYMPTOMS -Hair feels kind of crunchy when dry, even hours after moisturizing with Mielle Organics Avocado Hair Milk - Is soft when wet though -Has that strange type of frizz like thing/ some hair always sticking up straight when wet and dry -I'm not sure if I should include this one but my twa curls aren't very defined either Thank you so much for reading this whole thing! If anyone has any advice, tips, or ideas please let me know. Have an amazing day! :)
Firstly let me say that I love your channel, it is my go to for the best hair care advise. In your video you mentioned product overload and it got me wondering. Let me briefly explain my dilemma: I currently reside on a tropical island which has very high temperatures, winter has a temperature of about 25 degrees max. Since I have been here my hair has become very unresponsive and my first thought was to protect the hair with products, but later I cut them down and used more natural stuff as per your videos. What did catch my attention was after all attempts to resolve my dry hair issue was to resort to a relaxer and what was astonishing is that my hair was unresponsive to it. I did try after a couple of months later after shaving it off and treating it naturally but yet again the same results. I have a nappy type texture (mini curls) and trying to style it is always a problem for me. If my hair is not responding to relaxer perhaps its not responding to natural products either. The only thing that gives me that few minutes of relieve is plain old water, but then my hair just dries up all over again. I cut out oils because my scalp burns when I am in the sun, and thin liquid products like Cantu leave in's and creams don't seem to do much either except reduce the dryness by a percent or 2. I even add oregano to my foods as you mentioned it is very good for skin and hair health but the improvements are minor. My diet is more health based and yes I love my daily water, cannot live without it but this hair. I would cut it all off but it does not do my overall facial appeal any justice. I have tried Keratin treatment which works wonders but then my hair grows so much faster and Keratin treatments are not cheap and leaves my hair pin straight. I need your help because I trust your judgements.
I ask this question on your last video still no answer so hopefully I get the answer this time; If I put the real protein treatment in a leave in conditioner would I be able to leave it in without rinsing it until next wash day?
If you research the uses and benefits of protein for the hair; you would ascertain that leaving it on your hair can lead to breakage over time due to the molecular structure of one's keratin bonds and how protein bonds interact with the hair strands. So essentially use the Real protein treatment as directed by Green Beauty after all she already did the foundational research on her product. Good luck with you hair journey
Rose Rodriguez she has info for all Black natural hair. She has a video series on hair type, curl pattern, porosity, etc. I have 3C (mixed with 4A) hair and I’ve learned so much from her. Curl pattern really isn’t that important. Porosity, strand thickness and hair density are more important. With all due respect, please don’t get caught up in that curl pattern nonsense. It really won’t teach you much about your hair.
I understand what your saying curl pattern don’t matter. And I should have been more clear. She has way thicker hair than mind. Which I wish I had but mine is 3C and extremely thin. My hair is going through something. It was not that way all my life but was unclear where to start. Because I spoke to someone else who said henna is to strong to start with my hair in this weak state.
Rose Rodriguez I understand sis. Just know that the info she provides isn’t just for those with hair just like hers. If you have issues with thin hair and are interested in henna, I recommend checking out Curly Proverbz channel and her videos on henna and other Ayurvedic herbs. Green Beauty also has videos on them. Henna and other Ayurvedic herbs could be what your hair needs. I do a henna/Ayurvedic hair mask once or twice a month ( I also use the Green Beauty Real Protein Treatment) and it has done wonders for my hair. My hair is naturally thick, but high porosity, so the henna coats the strands and fills in the gaps in the cuticle and makes the hair stronger. I hope this info helps.
Honeyfaced1 I bought all green beauty products. I can wait to use her protein product. I am aware she helps all hair type. But I pined point my hair type but did not emphasis it was thin dry brittle. I do follow curly proverbz. And bought from one of her places she support. Henna sooq. I should have been clear on my question. Where to start from extremely damaged hair. Hair type does not matter. I just need to find a hair regimen to help my hair.
Rose Rodriguez I hope you find a regimen that works for you. You might also want to look eating a healthy, nutrient-rich diet (if you aren’t already) and perhaps getting your thyroid and health checked out. Also, Olaplex 3 is something that might work for you. Good luck on your hair journey. 😊
Always excited when she posted 😁❤️! She is so motivational to me I just started a channel on here and any support would be appreciated 👍🏽 the information she gives is always helpful, she is truly a god sent 🙏🏽
My hair is going through something is brittle dry fall out in clumps. I am in desperate need of help. But I have been binge watching a lot of your videos but I don’t know where to start. I think onion mixed to help the fall out. Then to strengthen I will try the ayurveda products but I am not sure which one to start with wish me look. I am on your website which ones should I buy one or all I don’t know. Help help. By the way I love your videos. You take your time to explain.
My hair almost shriveled up and fell out of my head when rice water was trending. Every channel was claiming it would work miracles and grow your hair out.

The best thing to do is use gentler shampoos that don't strip the scalp of sebum, or omit commercial shampoos altogether and use natural cleansers that maintain scalp pH and don't completely strip the scalp e.g soapnuts, clays, herbal rinses rich in saponins etc. If you use synthetic products, you are likely going to have to use synthetic cleansers to remove the buildup (with the exception of clay being a very powerful natural cleanser), so it may be unavoidable that you get an itchy scalp from it. But if you switch to more natural products and maintain your scalp sebum, the itchiness may no longer be a problem.

How often should you do protein treatment?
So exactly what proteins ingredients fit the category you said is the best??
I really love your videos it’s helps me in my hair journey 💕. I wanted to know if you can make a video about peanut milk and hair, the said that it’s a more powerful protein then the rice water, thanks I love what ur doing 😍😘
Hi green beauty please help me! My hair hates proteins any kind of proteins in conditioners or masks ! Can my hair grow without protein ? Can henna replace protein treatments ?
Can you use a regular conditioner as a leave in?
Thank you so much! I needed this!
This is great information
09echols agreed, it is always great when you actually learn from a video
What about shea butter, it's a pretty thick cream but my hair loves it
I love the content of your videos. Im so glad i subscribe to you channel. But i have a question is henna considered a protein? And how if any would you use it on low porosity hair?
Thank you so much for doing this video. Btw I love ❤️ love all your products. That protein treatment and spritz stabilizer of yours has given new life to my hair. I am low to medium porosity and interchange the protein treatment with the herbal hot oil treatment. When you do your bomb twist out do you use other products besides the spritz stabilizer and oil?
I was wondering why my hair was drier than usual, I have product build up🙄
Love this channel
I recall asked for a video like this and here it is 😉😉😉
This is sooooo helpful MashAllah 👍
Thank you Greenbeauty 😊
Hello! should I avoid products with cetyl and cetearyl achohols?
If you are trying to get the product build up out within 3-4 wash days, what do you do to your hair in the mean time? I have low porosity hair and my hair doesn't take protein well
Use a Clarifying shampoo instead of a special formula ( avoid treatment shampoo or conditioning shampoo etc); wash out all conditioner; then use a less creamy leave-in , favoring water-based or oily conditioners over thick creams in the meantime I think
Thank you for the informative video. Do you have a supplier of your products based in the UK? I'd like to order the protein treatment but wary of the shipping cost.
thanks for the knowledge great video
Do you use deep conditioner or any type of conditioner after this treatment?
i like you reason and logic accept ur info big fan from egy ❤❤💕💕❤💕❤💕
Hello. Where do your products ship from? Are you in the UK?
Thanks mama am getting know to my hair now
I used a new conditioner and suddenly I have so many hair breakages.. Can this because of the proteine..? and how do u recognize proteine on labels? Thank u 🤍
It will usually say protein or amino or hydrolyzed on the label 💚
GreenBeauty thank you so much
What about silk amino acids, can I get protein overload if a lot of my products has that in it?
Silk amino acids are proteins
jnorthe I know, I’m asking can you get protein overload from them since they are light proteins and is in pretty much everything.
ok
I love these videos! Thank you!
I love what you do girl, just love it
So glad you made this video 👏🏾😁
I love when you do porosity videos. It has helped me understand A Lot! How do you create the cartoon for your videos?
Thank you!!! I am able to understand all the things I have been doing wrong with proteins!!! 🥰👏🏾
Good morning crazy question do you know or do any videos on Locs
I am wondering if the real protein treatment is good on my protein sensitive european hair
It’s works for All hair types. Follow the instructions and measurements for low porosity hair types
Pls I need help coz am feeling frustrated already. I recently joined d natural hair community n I have a major problem with protein n moisture. I have low porosity hair n I don't knw wat my hair needs. Is it moisture or protein? After I did a strand test my hair snapped n broke den tried anoda piece n it kept stretching n didn't curl back. Pls help me
Sounds like you need both in different parts of your head. I would use light oils when moisturizing, and cleaning your hair and scalp with aloe vera gel (you can find leaves at a local grocery store like giants or weis for $1 each) and/or doing ACV rinses for your scalp. Do this sparsely tho, over the course of 3 months to see results without overloading your hair
@@JanieBee tanx alot
Should I avoid eating protein overload as I'm having protein overload in hair?
How can we make a natural DIY protein drip conditioner
What about using egg in hair?
Tried that...made my hair hard as a rock, brittle...
OMG GOD bless you!! I love love your channel 🤩 I just order it your protein from Amazon!! Thank you🙏
Someone put me on to your channel & I’m happy 😍
Hey Green Beauty can you clarify something you said pretty please with lots of cherries on top? You stated your protein treatment should be used as a stand alone but the directions say mix in a conditioner. Is it okay to dilute the protein treatment in water and then apply to hair as the treatment for so many minutes as you recommend?
royally_amused Hey 👋🏾 “stand alone” as in a stand alone project you can measure and mix with a condition yourself. You can try diluting the REAL Protein Treatment in water and using it like that but, it’s really concentrated you use a little bit at a time. Start with 2 tablespoons per 8 oz of water
@@GreenBeauty Thank you for your response and all your hard work
Thank you for making this video! Although, I'm still kind of stuck and confused. I don't know if I have protein overload, moisture overload, need moisture, or need protein. I did the big chop on April 21 so now I have a twa. I don't know what my twa needs though. I was wondering if anyone could help me figure it out. The products that I usually use in my hair are Shea Moisture's Jamaican Black Castor Oil Shampoo and conditioner along with the Mielle Organics Avocado daily moisturizer hair milk but I currently (very recently) am switching to Shea Moisture Low-Porosity Protein-Free Shampoo along with the Shea Moisture Curl and Shine conditioner and the Mielle Organics Protein-Free Mongongo oil conditioner which I use as a deep conditioner (I still use the Mielle Organic Avocado hair milk as a daily moisturizer). I switched products and most of them are protein-free because I was afraid that the reason why my hair is the way it is was because of protein and that I needed moisture, but now I'm really confused. I wash my hair once a week and have only used the new products once so far but I haven't used the shampoo yet though (because I ordered these off of Amazon and the shampoo didn't arrive yet so I replaced it with the Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Shampoo as a substitute haha). My twa has kind of been crunchy when dry, soft when wet, it has this strange almost (I think) frizz but it's like some hair sticking up straight. It stays like that when my hair is wet and dry. My twa is gets dry and kind of crunchy hours after moisturizing it with Mielle Organic Avocado hair milk that I use everyday. I also want to mention that I sleep with a satin head wrap at night. Does anyone know what I need and what is wrong with my hair? Here's a list of the products I use and my symptoms:
PRODUCTS I USE IN MY HAIR
-Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Shampoo
-Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Conditioner
-Mielle Organics Avocado Hair Milk
NEW HAIR PRODUCTS I RECENTLY BOUGHT
-Shea Moisture Low Porosity Protein-Free Shampoo
-Shea Moisture Coconut and Hibiscus Curl and Shine Conditioner
-Mielle Organics Protein-Free Hydrating Mongongo Oil Condtioner
-Mielle Organics Avocado Hair Milk
(I've only used these new products once so far though)
SYMPTOMS
-Hair feels kind of crunchy when dry, even hours after moisturizing with Mielle Organics Avocado Hair Milk
- Is soft when wet though
-Has that strange type of frizz like thing/ some hair always sticking up straight when wet and dry
-I'm not sure if I should include this one but my twa curls aren't very defined either
Thank you so much for reading this whole thing! If anyone has any advice, tips, or ideas please let me know. Have an amazing day! :)
Great video
Can my hair be sensitive to henna ?
What can you use if you don’t have access to the real protein treatment?
Can you do video on fenugreek
is henna a good protein treatment
help, is shea moisture a protein for the hair?!?!?!
Firstly let me say that I love your channel, it is my go to for the best hair care advise. In your video you mentioned product overload and it got me wondering.
Let me briefly explain my dilemma: I currently reside on a tropical island which has very high temperatures, winter has a temperature of about 25 degrees max. Since I have been here my hair has become very unresponsive and my first thought was to protect the hair with products, but later I cut them down and used more natural stuff as per your videos. What did catch my attention was after all attempts to resolve my dry hair issue was to resort to a relaxer and what was astonishing is that my hair was unresponsive to it. I did try after a couple of months later after shaving it off and treating it naturally but yet again the same results. I have a nappy type texture (mini curls) and trying to style it is always a problem for me. If my hair is not responding to relaxer perhaps its not responding to natural products either. The only thing that gives me that few minutes of relieve is plain old water, but then my hair just dries up all over again. I cut out oils because my scalp burns when I am in the sun, and thin liquid products like Cantu leave in's and creams don't seem to do much either except reduce the dryness by a percent or 2. I even add oregano to my foods as you mentioned it is very good for skin and hair health but the improvements are minor. My diet is more health based and yes I love my daily water, cannot live without it but this hair. I would cut it all off but it does not do my overall facial appeal any justice. I have tried Keratin treatment which works wonders but then my hair grows so much faster and Keratin treatments are not cheap and leaves my hair pin straight. I need your help because I trust your judgements.
Your protein treatment can’t be shipped to Belgium by amazon 😓😢
Thank you
What did you say you use
your videos are very informative
Giiiirl. Thank u
Hey Green Beauty, your animation girl is my hair twin 😂
I ask this question on your last video still no answer so hopefully I get the answer this time;
If I put the real protein treatment in a leave in conditioner would I be able to leave it in without rinsing it until next wash day?
Look at Green Beauty REAL Protein treatment video for your answer
@@aliciajessamy-benjamin4255 I've already seen that video that's why I'm asking the question.
Following
If you research the uses and benefits of protein for the hair; you would ascertain that leaving it on your hair can lead to breakage over time due to the molecular structure of one's keratin bonds and how protein bonds interact with the hair strands.
So essentially use the Real protein treatment as directed by Green Beauty after all she already did the foundational research on her product.
Good luck with you hair journey
Alicia Benjamin this!
Do you have infor on 3C hair.
Rose Rodriguez she has info for all Black natural hair. She has a video series on hair type, curl pattern, porosity, etc. I have 3C (mixed with 4A) hair and I’ve learned so much from her. Curl pattern really isn’t that important. Porosity, strand thickness and hair density are more important. With all due respect, please don’t get caught up in that curl pattern nonsense. It really won’t teach you much about your hair.
I understand what your saying curl pattern don’t matter. And I should have been more clear. She has way thicker hair than mind. Which I wish I had but mine is 3C and extremely thin. My hair is going through something. It was not that way all my life but was unclear where to start. Because I spoke to someone else who said henna is to strong to start with my hair in this weak state.
Rose Rodriguez I understand sis. Just know that the info she provides isn’t just for those with hair just like hers. If you have issues with thin hair and are interested in henna, I recommend checking out Curly Proverbz channel and her videos on henna and other Ayurvedic herbs. Green Beauty also has videos on them. Henna and other Ayurvedic herbs could be what your hair needs. I do a henna/Ayurvedic hair mask once or twice a month ( I also use the Green Beauty Real Protein Treatment) and it has done wonders for my hair. My hair is naturally thick, but high porosity, so the henna coats the strands and fills in the gaps in the cuticle and makes the hair stronger. I hope this info helps.
Honeyfaced1 I bought all green beauty products. I can wait to use her protein product. I am aware she helps all hair type. But I pined point my hair type but did not emphasis it was thin dry brittle. I do follow curly proverbz. And bought from one of her places she support. Henna sooq. I should have been clear on my question. Where to start from extremely damaged hair. Hair type does not matter. I just need to find a hair regimen to help my hair.
Rose Rodriguez I hope you find a regimen that works for you. You might also want to look eating a healthy, nutrient-rich diet (if you aren’t already) and perhaps getting your thyroid and health checked out. Also, Olaplex 3 is something that might work for you. Good luck on your hair journey. 😊
Does this mean egg mask is not good protein treatment?
leave egg at breakfast if low porosity
Resisting the urge to throw out my products lol
i used this protein mask and now i’m seeing that i’m protein sensitive i’m never using that mask again
Always excited when she posted 😁❤️! She is so motivational to me I just started a channel on here and any support would be appreciated 👍🏽 the information she gives is always helpful, she is truly a god sent 🙏🏽
est -ce que tu peux parler français ? svp
Jojoba don’t work for me at all.
My hair is going through something is brittle dry fall out in clumps. I am in desperate need of help. But I have been binge watching a lot of your videos but I don’t know where to start. I think onion mixed to help the fall out. Then to strengthen I will try the ayurveda products but I am not sure which one to start with wish me look. I am on your website which ones should I buy one or all I don’t know. Help help. By the way I love your videos. You take your time to explain.
too thick for me to. try grapeseed oil and humectants in winter
Stop rice water and aloe
