@@jillpeacock4540 It's for any hair type but how u use it. With glycerine due to its thick and sticky u should use very little and in oils or water to moisturize ur hair. U can add it to conditioners and shampoos as well.
I just started using glycerin and water and it’s a game changer for moisturizer. When I took out my 3 week old cornrows my hair was still so moisturized.
This video was helpful for my dry desert hair. I tried this and my hair been moisturized now for 3 days. Never have I went this long, normally its everyday moisture required. Thank you
Thank u so much for this info- I am going to try your recipe with lavender, peppermint and also add aloe vera juice (I know it will have to stay refrigerated) so thank u so much for making the explanation easy to understand. Black girls rule, keep up the amazing work you do!
I have learnt that just because something never worked last Christmas, it doesn't mean you shouldn't try it again now. That was my relationship with glycerine. It worked in my 20s. But I wasn't consistent and I O think a lot of products contained it anyway. Then in my 30/40s it didn't work at all. Now at 55 I am a serial DIYer. And one of my concoctions uses glycerin to mix with the xanthan gum. So one day I had an accident and used WAY too much glycerin. And my hair looked and felt awesome. So I have added a significant amount more glycerin to my regimen. What I do to test my regimen is a shampoo, no conditioner and air dry. If my hair is soft and has a bit of a shine, is easy to detangle, then I am doing the right thing. (Tangles were never much of an issue for me aynyeay. ) And I AM doing the right thing . My hair was soft, my curl was as good as it gets and an amazing shine even without prepooing or conditioning. I dampened my hair afterward and conditioned purely because I believe in conditioning. My didn't look and feel as if I needed to though. So its glycerin for me for the foreseeable future, not just for my hair but for skin as well. Thanks so much for you awesomely content.
We used to buy bottles of glycerin to mix with water back in the 1970's and it worked wonders for our Jheri Curls. Edit: I made this comment before I heard you bring it up so you know I know you're telling the truth 😂😂
@@awesomeaj9454 Thank you for sharing! I"ve heard that before. My science brain wants to know the science behind why it makes hair dry -- I definitely understand the frizz that can come from glycerin - but not the dryness! Thank you so much sharing!!! Off to do my research now!!
@@KarenofCurlHouse the glycerin can make the hair dry by pulling moisture out of the hair instead of the environment. I've experienced super soft frizzy hair and dry hair
Yes you can! You can certainly use with or UNDER curl definer. Now if you use it ONLY to two strand twist your hair with no styling cream, then you won't have much of a hold. But again, you can use it under any styling product when you want hold.
Hello there! Yes. You can certainly use glycerin with locs as well (if you have mature locs). Remember with locs 'less is more' as product can buildup easily with locs.
It depends on what type of locs and the maturity of your locks. New locs - no. For mature locs, very low concentrations -- similar to comment below -- too much may cause frizzing.
I do think it could help your hair. It is not easy though to get a good quality unrefined mustard oil or a mustard infusion that hasn't been infused in a cheap, refined cooking oil.
Hi l want to add glycerin in my fermented rice milk conditioner which is about 32oz . My preservative already contains glycerin, can l still add it. If yes how many percent do l add, thank you 😊
Hello there! Yes. You can use glycerin on MATURE locs. You don't want to hinder to locking process or cause any type of unraveling due to excess moisture in your hair.
Can this mixture be used on white ppls hair too? My daughter is 6 so we dont use conditioner and only wash every few days bc her hair is dry and curly. I wanna show a picture, but idk how to blue out her face! Does anyone know how i can do that while posting a pic or do i have to edit the photo in a photo editing app first? Also who knows of a really good photo editor app for androids??
Hey there Jennifer! Yes! You can use on your daughter hair. If it’s super dry you can consider this one too: ruclips.net/video/htfug2dCAls/видео.htmlsi=WAD9RskUQL7cB9ek Also, you can email us a pic as it more private to info@curlhouse.com
What about using glycerin for your hair and the hair products also have other ingredients listed as well…for example the products lists water, PEG75 Shea Butter Glyceride, vegetable glycerine, Glycine Sonja (Soybean Oil), Glyceryl Stearate, Cetearyl Alcohol Derived From Coconut Oil in this order?
Hey there! Check this out: ruclips.net/video/yXD0NcWdEEQ/видео.html I also have a product, the Follicle Stimulating Growth Drops for hair growth: curlhouse.com/products/follicle-stimulating-growth-drops
Hello there. Benjamin is the name of the brand. Look at the back of the bottle on the ingredient list and see if it says vegetable glycerin. Glycerin is also derived from petroleum as well.
Hello there! Vegetable glycerin (mixed with water) is fine for mature locs, but not for maturing or baby locs. Too much can cause frizz and the hair to unravel. And should you use it, you don’t necessarily have to spray it everyday either. A light mist one or twice or week is sufficient.
Want to know how to lock in that moisturizer, watch is: ruclips.net/video/QJ_5zlEu3eY/видео.html
Greatttttt info
I would guess that glycerin is good for low porosity hair. Am I correct? Isn't all glycerin from vegetables? Thanks
@@jillpeacock4540 Some are derived from animal fats; other from petroleum but mostly vegetable glycerin is most common
@@jillpeacock4540 and yes - low porosity hair would benefit from it

Just got some today but haven't applied it yet....curious: it's been 9 months since you posted this....is it still working out for you?
I made a tea of clove, peppermint, nettle and rosemary and added vegetable glycerin I spray on my hair everyday
YASSS! That should like a fantastic daily moisture spray! Love the botanicals!
“Jheri curls stayed moisturized all year long” 😂 sho’ did
hahahah!!!! Oh yes they did!!!
My hair loves vegetable glycerin also i use suave tropical conditioner.. Eco styler.. and olive oil that's all I put in my hair I'm 8 years natural..
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS INFO. I have watched other videos, they didnt break it down this way where you only need very little to ALOT of water.
Thanks! Will use this for my daughter and myself! I just bleached and dyed my hair pink and I need the moisture!! BTW... your makeup is gorgeous 😊

You are so welcome!!!!
I love your video!
This video was great!!
fabulous!! Thank you!
Great informative video
Thank you
Thanks a bunch!
Love this vid on glycerin !!
Good information!
Can I mix this with my carrier oil + essential oil for hair? If so what ratio should I use?
I would def mix with distilled or purified water (38% glycerin, 60% glycerin - that's the ratio I use), and add 2% oil.
Great video I prefer to stay away from glycerin in leave in and stylers.
Please share with me why. I’d love to know for my own education 🤗 Does it make your hair less defined or frizzy?
@@KarenofCurlHouse fizzy, less definition and dry

@@awesomeaj9454 I think that depends, especially if you are living in a less humid place then it'll draw out moisture from the hair itself
Hi
The glycerine, when mixed with aloe water, does it still have to go into the fridge? And how does it last before it's no good anymore,?
Wow! This was such a wonderful video. Can I use this with a curl definer also? And can I use this to twist my hair and then sit under hooded dryer?
Yes you can! You can certainly use with or UNDER curl definer. Now if you use it ONLY to two strand twist your hair with no styling cream, then you won't have much of a hold. But again, you can use it under any styling product when you want hold.
Great video 👍🏽
Same ingredient in wave nouveau hair products.
Sure is!!!!!!!
Hi maam i washed and conditioned my hair, can i do a twist out on wet hair and just twist in my hair with out extra water
Can glycerin detangle matted knotted hair?
I LOVE GLYCERIN!
Me too!! My favorite!!!!
Blessings Sister Queen! Do You use it with locs?
Hello there! Yes. You can certainly use glycerin with locs as well (if you have mature locs). Remember with locs 'less is more' as product can buildup easily with locs.
Thank you thank you
You are very welcome
lovely stuff
Would you recommend using glycerin on locs?, you mentioned that you do not use it as much now that you are loc'd.
It's a hair softener, so I would imagine that putting it on locs could possibly cause it to be frizzy or even start to unravel the locs
It depends on what type of locs and the maturity of your locks. New locs - no. For mature locs, very low concentrations -- similar to comment below -- too much may cause frizzing.
I am a new subscriber question I don’t know if this was asked before but can l use vegetable glycerin in my DIY herbal hair tea
Yes you can! Remember less is more with veg glycerin.
AND WELCOME TO THE CURL HOUSE COMMUNITY! 💜
What about mustard seed? Can you give me your thoughts?
I do think it could help your hair. It is not easy though to get a good quality unrefined mustard oil or a mustard infusion that hasn't been infused in a cheap, refined cooking oil.

How many drops of Aloe Vera oil and Lavender oil should I use?
10 drops of Lavender EO, and and you try 2oz of Aloe Vera
Is it necessary to use an essential oil with the Glycerin and Water mix?
You absolutely can!!!
Can I dilute with rice water? Using a tablespoon to a cup of rice water
YES YOU CAN!!! Rice water is full minerals for healthy hair!
Hi l want to add glycerin in my fermented rice milk conditioner which is about 32oz . My preservative already contains glycerin, can l still add it. If yes how many percent do l add, thank you 😊
Hi. Where does the glycerin fall on the label? Towards the front?
I have micro locs. Is this ok to mix in my water bottle and use on my locs?
Hello there! Yes. You can use glycerin on MATURE locs. You don't want to hinder to locking process or cause any type of unraveling due to excess moisture in your hair.
What step is this in the LOG method?
Can I add the glycerine to my rosemary/cloves water?
Sure can 🙌🏾
What’s the ratio usage when using essential oils non water base?

Can people with high porosity hair use products containing glycerin?
ABSOLUTELY! But remember less is more -- so you need a lower concentration of glycerin. Will post a DIY tomorrow actually
Can use vegetable glycerin on permed hair?
Yes you may glycerin in your products for relaxed hair typically in a smaller percentage
what the difference between vegetable glyceri and pure glycerin? can i use pure glycerin instead of vegetable glycerin?
Hey there! Its pretty much the same thing -- if the bottle says pure glycerin or glycerin its usually vegetable glycerin.
@@KarenofCurlHouse thanks very much.

Can you use this for your skin as well?
You can find glycerin in your lotions and bodycare as well.
Is glycerine better for the scalp or hair?
I would say HAIR and scalp, but glycerin has to be properly diluted and mixed (in small concentrations) for the scalp becuase it can be very gooey
@KarenofCurlHouse ok thank you for the info!
It makes my hair feels away that's my only problem
It makes your hair feel what -- you said away -- I'm sure that's a typo.
Lol
Can you flat iron your hair with this
You can use the mix before blow drying your hair. Don’t use prior to flat ironing
Does It have to say vegetables because mines just say Benjamin Glycerine
Hello there. Benjamin is the name of the brand. Look at the back of the bottle on the ingredient list and see if it says vegetable glycerin. Glycerin is also derived from petroleum as well.
@@KarenofCurlHouse ok thanks doesn't say anything about vegetable
