    So in the spritz, there is a glycerin and water mix in a 1:5 ratio respectively. The scalp oil is olive oil, peppermint, rosemary, lavender & tea tree oil in a 2% dilution. Details here ruclips.net/video/ngxZAIK-Vuk/видео.html

    I do the EXACT same routine. I drench my hair in moisturizer in the same order 1x a week. I have mini twist I did myself. Water is my first step and then I use a aloe vera, glycerin and honey concoction mixture followed by leave in moisturizer and olive oil, rosemary and peppermint mixture to seal. I then squeeze my twist together to get in all the products. I stick strictly to this regimen no matter what, after my hair is dry, I put my hair up and twist it within itself to cover all my ends. My hair thanks me for it every time by delivering length mid back. I actually use 2 silk scarves plus a silk pillowcase. My sister thinks I'm extra but guess what? She seen the results and started doing the same regimen. :)

      @Coily Diaries hi 👋 there! I use 2 cups of aloe vera(plant) with 2 tablespoons, each of vegetable glycerin and honey. I whisk the mixture very stringently. The leftovers I store in the freezer in ice cube tray. I hope this helps! Oh, I forgot to mention I defrost at room temperature and then run it under warm water in a closed jar before application.

    Girl!! Let me just come back to report that you convinced me to try glycerin with this video and I FINALLY know what it feels like for my hair to feel moisturized, while it is not damp or wet! I’ve been natural for 9 years. My hair characteristics include 4c, high porosity, fine strands, with medium to low density. Literally all the characteristics that make length retention the hardest to achieve in my opinion. I mix glycerin with aloe Vera gel and water in my spray bottle. Then I top it with a conditioner mixed with a diy henna:fenugreek infused oil, and a diy henna/fenugreek infused whipped Shea butter. I also started using henna tea spritz a few times a week, and that’s makes my scalp feel lovely and my strands feel strong, which is high porosity ladies really appreciate. But the glycerin has made my hair feel moisturized!! So thank you! I’m amazed at how long it can take us to find out what works for our hair. I understand why some ladies give up and go back to relaxers or just slap on wigs and braids. Learning your hair, especially as a seasoned adult with a variety of responsibilities, is not for the faint of heart. 😅 It really can get exhausting!

    • @CoilyDiaries
      @CoilyDiaries  Год назад +11

      This is so exciting to hear! When I found out how moisturised glycerin left my hair I made it a mission to spread the news! Yet to try aloe. The combo must be bomb! What ratios do you use and is the water in your bottle just tap water? My water is hard so am starting to use spring or distilled 💕

    • @A_Wilson
      @A_Wilson Год назад +7

      The tap water here is very soft and is what I use, but if it weren’t, I would probably use distilled water also. I just eyeball the ratio, but I would say it’s close to 1/4 glycerin, 1/4 aloe gel (the kind you can drink), and 2/4 water. Let us know if you ever get around to trying aloe vera. Thanks again for sharing the good news about glycerin! 🌸💕

And don't think you have to start out with a long period of time.

I have read books on caring for your hair, I was even looking at a hair scientist on RUclips that was offering so many things about hair retention and growth. None of them has come close to what you offer in this video! I started this treatment September 07/2024, I was going to wait a month before writing to you, but I can’t wait!!! Girl when I say my hair is feeling GREAT, is an understatement! I did everything you said and in the order, I have had my hair out of the twist for about 4 days and my hair is still hydrated, & NOT dry at all! I am going to have a wash day this Friday and do the treatment again. Thank you, thank you so much from the root of my hair to the tip! I am going to keep this up and see where my hair will be September 07/2025 God spare my life and I will try & update you again! Thank you again, much love from Canada ❤❤❤❤❤

    nice tips! I'm about six months into my natural hair journey. I've tried it off and on for a number of years, but this time I really want to stick with it this time. Because it hasn't grown out to a length where I can put it in a ponytail yet, I've been alternating between braids/twists with extensions and a wig because of my job. When my hair was in twists, I kept it in for 3 months and there was so much growth. I took it down and have been letting it rest under a wig until I get it rebraided. Under my wig, I moisturize and put it in mini twists. I've been putting a satin doo rag on before I put my wig cap on and sometimes after I moisturize, If I'm home, I'll put a plastic shower cap on with my bonnet so my hair can soak up all of that good moisture.

I apply some Ayurvedic oil with coconut oil into the leave in conditioner. Hair feels so good and still moisturised. I have extreme hair dry and loads of breakage. Just started my hair growth journey.

    I love how you say, try what works for you, and not follow step by step of others. I've used castor oil before, and it was too thick for my relaxed hair in transition. This time around, I tried it again. It feels great working it onto the natural part but not the relaxed ends. I added a few drops of my oil mix for scalp and ta da! It's not too thick and not too thin, lol. ❤❤❤❤ i have so many questions that will spam you comment section, lol.

This time last year I shaved off my hair completely bald because of the lupus n the hot weather last year n side effects which was in my scalp sent me crazy. N one day I woke up at 5am n cutoff all my locks, though I've done that several times but its been donkey years since I've proper cleaned my hair like that. So I'm persevering as I'm growing my hair back, the best thing I can say is that it's growing up thick n lush so yes I love when it gets treatment every few days. So as I watched u, I did my hair n yes I'm very generous in my application. Thank you for ur tips😊❤ have a great night 🌙

      Cold air lacks humidity. Using a humidifier indoors helps. Glycerin is a humectant; it sucks moisture from the air unless there isn't any. Then it'll suck it from your strands, so watch your ratios and seal well. Keep your hair covered as much as possible with a silk scarf, scully, etc. Warm products before applying to hair.

      Once you find what works for you, stick with it. For me, moisture is water but moisturising has to do with how that moisture is maintained. So if I find ways to keep the “water” in the hair longer, it’s a win! Consider this, Sebum is the the best moisturiser for hair and yet it is not water.

    I don't wet often either I can go up to a month if I wanted to that's the cycle my beautician mom had my hair on. No spritzing in between. Usually by the 7th day she is beautiful. I use creams, oils, sometimes hair grease. Depends on the weather. Today it is 105 degrees so I wet and conditioned after 9 or 10 days lost count.
    Most of my creams have glycerin in them. I use a rosemary glycerin amala cream. If I oil after wetting usually jojoba it mimics your scalp sebum. Where i am they sell real castor oil. Which will mat your hair. If it doesn't it is mixed with something I found out from usage.. Yes it is about finding what works.

My hair is always dry, i moisturize every other day, I drink a lot of water and my hair is still dry.

    Hi, [my comment is EXTREMELY LONG, so do PRESS PLAY🔼👈so you don't ware your eyes 👀😅out ] your channel popped up on my screen, as they do, and it tuned out to be a hella coincidence! Last night I was trying to work out what was the best moisturizer for my 4c thin type hair (but definitely 4C😧) So I sat there pondering and 3 guesses...GLYCERINE came tomind; I just bought a bottle of it on Amazon to add to some Ayevedic oils 🤗 It seems we are definitely on the same page because I also use the same hair oil as you on my scalp already. For my sealant oil, although I have castor oil, again I just bought it for yet another Ayervedic oil treatment, I have had the JBCO for some time, but wasn't feeling it too much...not sure why, I think I just didn't really give it a chance 😕. However, sometime in January 2022, i tried making a FENUGREEK OIL; i simply placed some Fenugreek seeds into a jar and poured in some oil of choice...can't remember what i chose, but it would probably have been Olive or Grapeseed oil.I was suppose to leave it for a mth to mature, but i forgot all about it and it remained on top of my kitchen cupboard for ENTIRE YEAR!!! 😲🤭🤣😅 It was only because i was Spring Cleaning that i discovered it up there! 😄 GIRL! Let me tell you! The quality of this oil is outstanding! It is sooo rich and smooth! The appearance is EXTREMELLY GLOSSY! It looks like lip gloss in appearance, but a really high quality one 👌 The amount of moisture it gives for such a small amount is STUNNING! 💫 I love it, so that is what I'm going to try for a while because, to me, it's like having a fine aged wine in my hair the kind that cost a fortune due to how many years it takes to mature the wine, in my case the oil. Lastly, I know about the tucking in of your ends for protection, I learnt about this when i was 14yrs old...I'm 60 now. I used to moiturise my hair, then platt it loosly, then tuck it in gently till it looked like little mounds on my head and i, along with my school friends, would all wear our hair like that to school; we called them CHINY or TINY BUMPS, not sure if we should've been saying CHINESE BUMPS! 🤔😅😅 Very protective and very effective. I doubt you took the time or HAD the time to listen to all that, but it's there if you ever do! Thank for sharing your knowledge and I shall SHARE you Chanel in turn. Bye for now!
