I became more aware of scalp care when I started wearing twists. My routine is having my husband massage essential oils into my scalp. I creat my oil: clove, rosemary, jojoba and peppermint.
My current scalp routine is exfoliating weekly with my shampoo brush, plus using clays and/ or ayurveda powders that are cleansing and exfoliating (hibiscus, neem, cassia, and amla are my faves)! I try to use powders every 1-2 weeks; they can be so messy! Lol I also love to DRENCH my hair with tea rinses weekly, especially after shampooing. I sweat a LOT, so I spray my scalp with a tea or aloe juice mixed with water every 2-3 days. My hair is currently waist length and my eczema hasn't flared up on my scalp in months.
Oh, absolutely‼️ I use baking soda and *IT. FEELS. **_OUTSTANDING._* I do follow up with a [diluted] ACV rinse to balance and restore pH and softness. *(MUST DILUTE!)*
I do an onion juice treatment at least twice a month on alternate weeks. But if I feel an itch I do it weekly. I used to use it as a prepoo but I applied it to washed hair once and noticed that it is more effective. So I've used it that way since. The recipe is 1 small onion, 2 fingers of garlic, a thumb size of ginger, 1tiny scotch burner pepper. All grated, mixed together and juiced with a cheese cloth and applied to the scalp. If it's remaining it is also applied to the hair.
My scalp routine includes exfoliating during wash day. I usually pre poo with ACV and let sit to detox and clarify my curls 1-2 xs a month..but now I will also incorporate and rinse after conditioning as suggested in this video. I already use fresh aloe Vera leaf on my scalp and hair and even make a hair mask with it adding moringa powder, fenugreek powder and sea moss powder mixed with avocado and macadamia nut oil. I let that sit for an hour then do my conditioner then oil rinse as learned from your videos.
Just made some clove water today and rinsed my hair and scalp after conditioning. Locked in the moisture with grease. Through the week will use castor oil and lavender water.
Hi, I am so happy that I found your Channel. Two things in one: improving my English and learning more about how take care of my hair. Thank you!!! 🙏🏾😚
My scalp care routine consists only of the shampoo brush as of right now. Occasionally, I do an acv hair rinse (once a month, usually) but that's about it. I was actually looking to include more stuff and I have never used aloe vera on my hair after shampooing so I will definitely include that one!
I can say I’m honestly doing something right. Most of the things you mentioned, I have. I just picked up the Pattern Hair serum. I’m keeping up with my wash routine as well. Loving the ACV rinse too. I now know to use it after my conditioner. Thanks a Million ✨💕✨

I do scalp exfoliation with my weekly wash. Oils cause scalf inflammation for me, but occasionally I use the Serum from Pattern. I sometimes use an exfoliating product/shampoo but always a brush.
Hey, love your braids! I am currently using a prescription scalp oil. I also have a concoction of Rosemary essential oil lavender oil and peppermint oil in a base of jojoba oil being used for the same reason. I have alopecia and we're trying to stimulate growth. My dermatologist approved the essential oils to my amazement because many are clueless about anything other than prescription drugs.
I've been diagnosed with Alopecia as well. I wish that I had known about the oils. I spent so much money and time on oral, topical medication and shots in my scalp. I finally said, ENOUGH!! I don't want to give up hope.
CC you are hitting all my pain points, 1-dry itchy scalp, 2-exfoliation tools, 3-fairy knots (next vid). I have fine 4a-3c hair I'm trying to learn. I keep getting a lot of buildup by wash day. Also hairfall is high at times. I use a lot less product now and wash more often. I love aloe vera, but it can make my hair feel dry. When I add oil to seal it in, my scalp gets inflamed in 2-3 days. I will try a serum. TFS, You're the best that ever did it!

Love this! Love your T-Shirt as well! Does it say, "YAHWEH?" My scalp routine now is doing a DIY exfoliating scrub that I also leave on for about 10 minutes before washing off. It's homemade pumpkin spice (cinnamon, cloves, allspice, nutmeg, and ginger), honey, and olive oil. I scrub it in for a few minutes before using it as a scalp mask before I shampoo! My scalp feels like it can breathe after this! Favorite Pre-Poo ever!
I love watching you and learning about my hair care. I am 63 and have been experiencing alopecia on my crown so when you did the video on the Hawaiian oil I chose the macadamia oil and I made a mixture of that with Shea Olein plus vitamin E I must say my hair is very happy but more my face and skin love it even more those fine lines around my eyes are totally invisible my eyelids were starting to have cracked like wrinkles or something and my skin looks so fresh now the backs of my hands are so smooth the photo sensitive skin I experience now has fewer eruption as well as faster healing time, thank you
I'm relaxed and all your videos are brilliant! Honestly. I have had set back after set back listening to hair youtbers( who are largely low porosity), giving really generalised one size fits all advice. Now I understand my hair and it is thriving! The only thing is, I wish you knew how much all your advice cuts across to chemically processed hair too. It would be amazing to see you brand yourself as a hair guru, not just natural hair guru! :D
I look forward to your videos every week, I just learned from one of your previous videos about sweet almond oil, and avocado oil and had them in my cabinet, since using them I have not had a itchy scalp its been a week. So far so good, I sweat in my head alot due to exercising but even with that it has been great, trying to grow my hair, and learning what it likes and don't like being low porosity and fine, its been a roller coaster. Thank you!! YOU ROCK Ms. Tonya, Blessings!!🙏🏽
I use a shampoo brush, from Sally’s that cost me around $2.00 and I use it every shampoo day; however I’ve been eyeing the ACV rinses to try on my hair to retrain my scalp and bring it back to life. I also use rosemary + clove water.
I needed this. My scalp itches like crazy at times and today is my wash day. So I will do the ACV rinse after I wash my hair, exfoliate my scalp and condition my hair. Thanks Tonya!
I had dry itchy scalp and now I constantly use Tea Tree Oil (the brand I use is premixed, Difeel). Even though I don't have dandruff, I tried Head and Shoulders Supreme Scalp Moisturizer. It's like a creamy serum and is excellent. Finally, my dermatologist advised that I take my allergy tablet every day (I used to just take them before going outside). Your scalp, like your skin, may be having an allergic reaction to something in the atmosphere (my beautician told me that but I had to hear it again from the dermatologist before I took action!). I know there are other things to use but I cannot stand smelling like coconut or hot chocolate all day! : D
Rosemary and aloe water lightly massaged in every day. And thanks to you...acv every three weeks. It worked for my dandruff in only a week. This is murder on any particular styling though.
Lovely Tanya, can you please do a video on how water (the type of water we are using on our hair such as if it's hard water, alkaline water, etc.) impacts our scalp?
Greetings, I enjoyed the video & learned something new again. I will apply the fresh aloe gel on my scalp after washing. Scalp treatment: at least 2 to 3x a week just before bed, I use my electric body massager on the lowest setting over my nighttime scarf or bonnet. It's a treat & I tend fall off into a deep sleep.
Thank you for talking about ph balancing. I have a terrible scalp condition and I have to stick with gentle scalp cleansing shampoos and conditioners. Thank you for the recipe! You really are THE HAIR GURU!🌹👏🏾
Thank you! I’ve been doing the acv rinse first as a jump start to my shampoo to really help cleanse my hair but I do feel the difference in my hair post acv vs post shampoo. I’ll switch to doing it after my conditioner and see how it does. Thanks!
I love chemical exfoliation with BHA's and AHA's in my skin routine so I found shampoos generally targeted for dandruff have salicylic acid and it's been working well as long as I don't let it sit too long
Hey Tonya, another great video! I started using fresh Aloe Vera as a pre-poo last wash day. I open the leaf and rub the gel on my scalp and hair. I also add an oil to my hair (Coconut oil, or hempseed oil, or castor oil, or sweet almond oil).I leave it on for 30 minutes to an hour and then rinse out and then shampoo. With this information from you today looks like I need to shampoo first and then use the Aloe Vera. On some wash days I use the Curlsmith Bond Salve which acts as a pre-poo. Other wash days I use the Curlsmith Scalp line which includes a pre-poo, a clarifying exfoliating shampoo, and a calming (very cool on a scalp) conditioner. I also use a scalp massager similar to the one you use. Last week I used a rinse by Koils by Nature: Stimulating Hair Growth Rinse with Apple Cider Vinegar. It's a nice rinse. Another nice one is Creme of Nature Argan Oil Clarifying Apple Cider Rinse. I recently purchased several different kinds of scalp scrubs (Texture ID, Eden Bodyworks, and Ouai), that I will be trying soon. 😄
Greetings to you dear, last week you made a video on clove water, which I decided to do, I have been struggling with dry, course hair and I'm naturally grey, so for one week I have just been using the clove water and what a change, my hair feels, softer, curls are coming back and my hair is just overall more manageable!!! Thank you so much!! ❤️🙏🏼
I am definitely going to try the scalp brush, ACV rinse, Pattern Scalp Serum for my dry itchy scalp. Thank you so much. I really appreciate this channel.
That Pacifica scalp brush looks good, but I *highly recommend a seamless one.* This will prevent any bacteria from building up and _mold_ from occurring within the brush (especially the base). Sephora has a great one which I purchased in Autumn 2021 for $11 _shipped❣️_
As always, I enjoy your videos. I will definitely incorporate the DIY oil mix mentioned by someone in the comments. Jojoba oil, peppermint, clove, rosemary. However, I have a spray DIY, I use each day. Aloe vera gel (store bought), with either avocado or extra virgin olive peppermint, clove essential oils with warm water. Oh, the scalp exfoliator is in my cart on Amazon. Lol
I have a very similar experience with my scalp as well. I have scratched so much that my hair is shorter and cutting out right at the crown. I just want to stop the itch!
I’ve added acv to my deep conditioner as you suggested in one of your videos. Is that ok as an alternative to the rinse? Or am I still rinsing with the acv?
I use an apple cider rinse made by Beekman 1802 and I love it. Like you said my curls pop instantly after. I also have a DIY growth oil I created, with your helpful sharing of knowledge. THANK YOU. But I never thought of exfoliation. I have seen those little brushes all my life and never knew what they were for. LOL Going to pick one up this morning and see how I like it. Thanks one again.
My scalp routine rn is shampoo with neutrogena salicylic acid shampoo, then mille organics oat and honey shampoo then act rinse/clove rinse and then use head and shoulders royal oils dandruff scalp spray and then massage with jojoba oil! I love the tips I’ll try to mix my jojoba oil with tea tree!😊
Love the tips! I just started using Sarenzo Beauty’s Tulsi scalp scrub, love, love, love!!! And I use Melanin Haircare and Curly Proverbs hair growth oil 😍😍😍. I do scalp messages daily. See a huge difference in the growth and thickness of my hair. And it doesn’t itch as much!!! I wash my hair weekly to keep my scalp clean. 🙏🏽💃🏾💓
this makes me realize how little attention i give my scalp 😅 as someone who's still transitioning ive only had my eyes on my hair strands, thankful for these tips (hope she does a vid for transitioning some day C:)
My scalp routine involves using lemon and water and massaging it onto my scalp before I wash my hair. It helps to clear my scalp of any oily residue. Scalp massages are soooooo important. 🤗Thank u for another informative video.
Great video! I currently use vita goods vibrating scalp brush on wash days. I also do one rinse of Kera Care’s Dry Itch Scalp Shampoo. I’m also a big fan of Atarah Haircare’s scalp treatment oil. It has ingredients in it that gives my scalp a great tingle!
HI! I came across your channel and I'm so glad I did. My whole head got chemical burn to the point that I develop scabs all over, eventually they all fell out but my scalp became sore. I tried to make an appointment to see a dermatologist but they all have appointments for four months out . my hair fell out in patches. I did a trim on it to try and even it out but it doesn't seem to be growing back. what advice can you give me, anything would be appreciated.
I use my fenugreek and clove spritz maybe once a week, oil my scalp with my diy oil, I use my creme of nature acv clarifying rinse and I just bought a curlsmith hair serum. I haven't used the hair serum yet, but I can't wait to try it!!😊💜
I am definitely interested in our to rid my hair of fairy knots. I have fine mostly 3c curls and they are annoying. I like to use brown sugar mixed with a carrier oil (sunflower, safflower, olive, jojoba,etc) and a some essential oils (lavendar, clove, chamomile, tea tree, ylang ylang, etc)
It works be awesome to see a video on postpartum shedding and how to manage it. My hair has been coming out in clumps at the third month of postpartum. 😫😫😫
Thanks a lot CC. Hmm..aloe vera on clean scalp is one of the things i would implement for scalp care going forward. 1. Can a sensitive scalp use this kind of scalp brush? 2. Can peppermint oil or lavendar water be used for treating itchy scalp or scalp prone to sore?
Yes, I would just be gentle with the brush when exfoliating. Also, tea tree, peppermint or lavender (4-5 drops) diluted in a light carrier oil like grapeseed or jojoba will be great for an itchy scalp. However, if you notice irritation please discontinue usage.
Thanks for the information you willingly provide all of us. Question: as it relates to our scalp ph, I get so confused about when to do, for instance, a tea rinse if I am also doing an apple cider vinegar rinse that day (the order I should do it). Question #2. How can we ensure our various homemade tea rinses are the proper ph?
Hey! You don't have to do both on the same day, it's okay to space it out, maybe your first wash day of the month is acv and the second is the tea rinse. As for the tea rinses, the pH should not go very high, but you can also purchase pH strips to confirm. :-)
Hey beautiful. Learned something new…”after conditioner,” wasn’t prepared for that right there! Always grateful. Question - what do you use to indicate “Ph balance around 4.5” that you recommended? Please advise
Hey! If you're measuring a liquid for pH then you can use pH strips. If you're referring to your scalp, usually if you have a pretty healthy scalp more than likely the pH is acceptable, however once you start noticing issues with your scalp then the pH could be off and implementing these routines will help see an improvement.
Thx..I BE ON THAT 😉 AND I WASH CONDITION exfoliate I have used aloe vera fresh aloe vera I have used the tea tree and all the good oils like sweet almond, grape seed plus leave in conditioner... until✌
One of the things that I’ve implemented this year is biweekly scalp massages with either my Haitian black castor oil or the Inala power potion. Two things that I’m going to try from your video is the ACV rinses. So many people have talked about this. I have used ACV before, I just can’t stand the smell, but I’m willing to try it again. And the scalp brush from Ulta…I’m on the Ulta app as we speak…lol
I my mind is trying implement a scalp routine by doing scalp massages at least twice a day. You answered my question as to what tool is best for detangling and the real benefit on the scalp brush. I’ve seen so many things for both. My scalp is basically more tender than itchy than oily. Does amazon carry the type of exfoliating brush or detangler comb?
Thamk you for this video. I use most of these methods. I have used the apple cider vinegar. And I have a scalp oil prescribed by My dermatologist that I use. I also use oil rinsing. And I do a pre-poo every time I wash my hair. I never thought to use the scalp brush. How do I use the scalp brush? Sending you Tanya, and everyone here love and light.❤️❤️🙏🙏☮️☮️
Thank you so much for your videos, they are so helpful. Quick question. Do Aloe vera gel or juice have any benefit for your actual hair, itself or is it best to use on the scalp?
My hair loves oil rinse-thanks to you! But, I want to start ACV rinses too-just don’t know when to add it?? I have high porosity hair and follow your pmp method. I prepoo with coconut oil the night before washing, shampoo with non-sulfate high moisture shampoo, deep condition with steamer/heat cap, detangle, rinse conditioner, add oil in shower-then lightly rinse oil out, add kinky curly leave in, and then kinky curly custard as my styler. I was thinking add the ACV rinse right after rinsing out deep conditioner (which would be before my oil rinse). So I would rinse out deep conditioner, spray hair with ACV in sections, let sit for a few minutes, then rinse the ACV out, then add sealing oil mix, let and then rinse oil out. Add my kinky curly leave in. Add my kinky curly custard as a styler and proceed to twists braids or wash and go etc. Would this be right for your PMP method?
I just did a ACV rinse yesterday and I left it on my scalp for 20 minutes and it felt amazing 🤩 I felt the fizzing/tingling sensation the whole time and after my wash my scalp felt great and clean. Is ACV exfoliating? Thanks 😊
Thank you so much I’m gonna try some of this. I’ve been having a really hard hair journey ever since I did the big chop in April my hair should be a lot fuller but it’s not because I have really bad scalp issues and when I itch it I’ll take a brush or something and used it to scratch my scalp which causes more bald spots to happen and I’m really discouraged😞
Just looove your videos. Looking forward to the fairy knot video as this is my struggle. So needed. I looooove fresh aloe vera as my prepoo, as this gives me great slip to detangle. Will try the acv rince. Tried acv in my bentonite clay mask and oh my ... another level of curl popping hair cleansing greatness. Thank you for your videos highly appreciated.
Hey girl, I shampoo, condition and rinse condition out and add aloe vera juice to hair and scalp, I spray it on. I seem to be at a stand still and I want my hair to go more. Any suggestions, oh I do a serum by Canvas beauty but only once a week. It has some really good things in it. Should I do that more often?
I do most of the things that you mentioned but recently, I haven't been exfoliating my scalp much, so I need to get back on to this. Thank you for this information, can't wait to put it all into action properly
Thank you, I’m doing lavender now, I’m making some Clover spray as I’m watching you and will start that next week . I’m not a 4C hair type I’m more 2C with gray and some left over henna of which I’m hoping it will grow out soon . Great meeting this afternoon and again thx.
@@CurlyChemistry shall do I’m going to try the clove for one month and see how it goes. My hair has never been thick so I’m not looking for that to happen but would take a inch and be most happy.
I massage my scalp with olive oil infused with fenugreek, amla, bhringraj, and brahmi. It’s helped with dandruff.
That sounds amazing.
Do you buy those from Amazon or where please?

I like clay wash with acv. Leaves hair clean but not dried out. Clay cleans scalp as well. Acv brings the clay down to a more acidic level. I love it.
I've never ever thought scalp exfoliation is crucial. Really appreciate the simplified yet scientific explanation.
You’re welcome! 💜

I am 63 and have been experiencing alopecia on my crown so when you did the video on the Hawaiian oil I chose the macadamia oil and I made a mixture of that with Shea Olein plus vitamin E I must say my hair is very happy but more my face and skin love it even more those fine lines around my eyes are totally invisible my eyelids were starting to have cracked like wrinkles or something and my skin looks so fresh now the backs of my hands are so smooth the photo sensitive skin I experience now has fewer eruption as well as faster healing time, thank you
@Renetta Meadows where did you get the macadamia oil and Shea Olein plus vitamin E.

I'm relaxed and all your videos are brilliant! Honestly. I have had set back after set back listening to hair youtbers( who are largely low porosity), giving really generalised one size fits all advice. Now I understand my hair and it is thriving! The only thing is, I wish you knew how much all your advice cuts across to chemically processed hair too. It would be amazing to see you brand yourself as a hair guru, not just natural hair guru! :D
Aww thank you! Natural hair is definitely my niche, but I'm glad that my videos are helping you as well. I may add in some relaxed videos as well. :-)
Trying scalp serum and sealing it in with some grease!
I look forward to your videos every week, I just learned from one of your previous videos about sweet almond oil, and avocado oil and had them in my cabinet, since using them I have not had a itchy scalp its been a week.
So far so good, I sweat in my head alot due to exercising but even with that it has been great, trying to grow my hair, and learning what it likes and don't like being low porosity and fine, its been a roller coaster. Thank you!!
YOU ROCK Ms. Tonya, Blessings!!🙏🏽
You are so welcome!! :-D
I use a shampoo brush, from Sally’s that cost me around $2.00 and I use it every shampoo day; however I’ve been eyeing the ACV rinses to try on my hair to retrain my scalp and bring it back to life. I also use rosemary + clove water.
I needed this. My scalp itches like crazy at times and today is my wash day. So I will do the ACV rinse after I wash my hair, exfoliate my scalp and condition my hair. Thanks Tonya!
You’re welcome!
I had dry itchy scalp and now I constantly use Tea Tree Oil (the brand I use is premixed, Difeel). Even though I don't have dandruff, I tried Head and Shoulders Supreme Scalp Moisturizer. It's like a creamy serum and is excellent. Finally, my dermatologist advised that I take my allergy tablet every day (I used to just take them before going outside). Your scalp, like your skin, may be having an allergic reaction to something in the atmosphere (my beautician told me that but I had to hear it again from the dermatologist before I took action!). I know there are other things to use but I cannot stand smelling like coconut or hot chocolate all day! : D
Rosemary and aloe water lightly massaged in every day. And thanks to you...acv every three weeks. It worked for my dandruff in only a week. This is murder on any particular styling though.
Lovely Tanya, can you please do a video on how water (the type of water we are using on our hair such as if it's hard water, alkaline water, etc.) impacts our scalp?
Greetings, I enjoyed the video & learned something new again. I will apply the fresh aloe gel on my scalp after washing.
Scalp treatment: at least 2 to 3x a week just before bed, I use my electric body massager on the lowest setting over my nighttime scarf or bonnet. It's a treat & I tend fall off into a deep sleep.
Thank you for sharing! Great advice.
I needed this. I made the clove water and my scalp was like MA'AM what is you doing? go back to Fenugreek water and teatree oil!
My hair loves fenugreek water!😊
This channel is GOLD
I do have a scalp routine every other three days I grease my scalp with Chebe powder pure butter the refenish & rejuvenate for alopecia.
My scalp suddenly started itching, I guess I am due for a wash... ACV rinse after conditioning, I got that our chemist, thank you 💕
You’re welcome! ☺️
I massage my scalp daily and use an essential oil circa 3-4 days a week.
Love it!! Thank you for sharing! :-)
Thank you for talking about ph balancing. I have a terrible scalp condition and I have to stick with gentle scalp cleansing shampoos and conditioners. Thank you for the recipe! You really are THE HAIR GURU!🌹👏🏾
Thank you! I’ve been doing the acv rinse first as a jump start to my shampoo to really help cleanse my hair but I do feel the difference in my hair post acv vs post shampoo. I’ll switch to doing it after my conditioner and see how it does. Thanks!
I love chemical exfoliation with BHA's and AHA's in my skin routine so I found shampoos generally targeted for dandruff have salicylic acid and it's been working well as long as I don't let it sit too long
Hey Tonya, another great video! I started using fresh Aloe Vera as a pre-poo last wash day. I open the leaf and rub the gel on my scalp and hair. I also add an oil to my hair (Coconut oil, or hempseed oil, or castor oil, or sweet almond oil).I leave it on for 30 minutes to an hour and then rinse out and then shampoo. With this information from you today looks like I need to shampoo first and then use the Aloe Vera. On some wash days I use the Curlsmith Bond Salve which acts as a pre-poo. Other wash days I use the Curlsmith Scalp line which includes a pre-poo, a clarifying exfoliating shampoo, and a calming (very cool on a scalp) conditioner. I also use a scalp massager similar to the one you use. Last week I used a rinse by Koils by Nature: Stimulating Hair Growth Rinse with Apple Cider Vinegar. It's a nice rinse. Another nice one is Creme of Nature Argan Oil Clarifying Apple Cider Rinse.
I recently purchased several different kinds of scalp scrubs (Texture ID, Eden Bodyworks, and Ouai), that I will be trying soon. 😄
Greetings to you dear, last week you made a video on clove water, which I decided to do, I have been struggling with dry, course hair and I'm naturally grey, so for one week I have just been using the clove water and what a change, my hair feels, softer, curls are coming back and my hair is just overall more manageable!!! Thank you so much!! ❤️🙏🏼
I am definitely going to try the scalp brush, ACV rinse, Pattern Scalp Serum for my dry itchy scalp. Thank you so much. I really appreciate this channel.
Thank you. I pretty much like essential oils and mix them and aloe Vera gel.
That Pacifica scalp brush looks good, but I *highly recommend a seamless one.* This will prevent any bacteria from building up and _mold_ from occurring within the brush (especially the base). Sephora has a great one which I purchased in Autumn 2021 for $11 _shipped❣️_
As always, I enjoy your videos. I will definitely incorporate the DIY oil mix mentioned by someone in the comments. Jojoba oil, peppermint, clove, rosemary. However, I have a spray DIY, I use each day. Aloe vera gel (store bought), with either avocado or extra virgin olive peppermint, clove essential oils with warm water. Oh, the scalp exfoliator is in my cart on Amazon. Lol
M so glad I discovered your channel! Im trying to grow my hair.Ive scatched my scalp so much and it has fallen out. Optimistic it'll grow back.
I have a very similar experience with my scalp as well. I have scratched so much that my hair is shorter and cutting out right at the crown. I just want to stop the itch!
I’ve added acv to my deep conditioner as you suggested in one of your videos. Is that ok as an alternative to the rinse? Or am I still rinsing with the acv?
I use an apple cider rinse made by Beekman 1802 and I love it. Like you said my curls pop instantly after. I also have a DIY growth oil I created, with your helpful sharing of knowledge. THANK YOU. But I never thought of exfoliation. I have seen those little brushes all my life and never knew what they were for. LOL Going to pick one up this morning and see how I like it. Thanks one again.
My scalp routine rn is shampoo with neutrogena salicylic acid shampoo, then mille organics oat and honey shampoo then act rinse/clove rinse and then use head and shoulders royal oils dandruff scalp spray and then massage with jojoba oil! I love the tips I’ll try to mix my jojoba oil with tea tree!😊
Love the tips! I just started using Sarenzo Beauty’s Tulsi scalp scrub, love, love, love!!! And I use Melanin Haircare and Curly Proverbs hair growth oil 😍😍😍. I do scalp messages daily. See a huge difference in the growth and thickness of my hair. And it doesn’t itch as much!!! I wash my hair weekly to keep my scalp clean. 🙏🏽💃🏾💓
That curlsmith blue line for the scalp is what i use. Its amazing for the scalp
this makes me realize how little attention i give my scalp 😅 as someone who's still transitioning ive only had my eyes on my hair strands, thankful for these tips (hope she does a vid for transitioning some day C:)
I think she did one long ago
My scalp routine involves using lemon and water and massaging it onto my scalp before I wash my hair. It helps to clear my scalp of any oily residue. Scalp massages are soooooo important. 🤗Thank u for another informative video.
Thank U for the info!! I'm getting some new growth where there previously none .
Hi Curly Chemistry friend, I do not currently have a scalp routine but, after this video I will inculcate exfoliation into my routine. Thank you 😊
I use that brush to shampoo my hair, it feels so good.
definitely will be getting a scalp serum
Great video! I currently use vita goods vibrating scalp brush on wash days. I also do one rinse of Kera Care’s Dry Itch Scalp Shampoo. I’m also a big fan of Atarah Haircare’s scalp treatment oil. It has ingredients in it that gives my scalp a great tingle!
Love it!
Thank you. Very informative and helpful as usual. Regime: wash, condition, and go. 🥰😊🥰
HI! I came across your channel and I'm so glad I did. My whole head got chemical burn to the point that I develop scabs all over, eventually they all fell out but my scalp became sore. I tried to make an appointment to see a dermatologist but they all have appointments for four months out . my hair fell out in patches. I did a trim on it to try and even it out but it doesn't seem to be growing back. what advice can you give me, anything would be appreciated.
You are a life saver
I really like the music vibe. Just about to watch this segment again. The music hit me in a good way.
Thanks so much for your videos! I always learn so much and feel empowered to continue on my hair care journey ❤️
You’re so welcome! ☺️
I use my fenugreek and clove spritz maybe once a week, oil my scalp with my diy oil, I use my creme of nature acv clarifying rinse and I just bought a curlsmith hair serum. I haven't used the hair serum yet, but I can't wait to try it!!😊💜
Love your routine!!
Thank You. I don't have one except to wash my Hair and scalp. I will try ACV and Aloe
We love and appreciate your works❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you my dear we love you 😊
Two times a week I oil my scalp with Blue Magic and massage it as well
I will exfoliate, add more jojoba/peppermint oil weekly. I have been neglecting my scalp beyond shampooing.
I am definitely interested in our to rid my hair of fairy knots. I have fine mostly 3c curls and they are annoying. I like to use brown sugar mixed with a carrier oil (sunflower, safflower, olive, jojoba,etc) and a some essential oils (lavendar, clove, chamomile, tea tree, ylang ylang, etc)
Thank you!! Will now be incorporating scalp exfoliating tool and ACV rinse
It works be awesome to see a video on postpartum shedding and how to manage it. My hair has been coming out in clumps at the third month of postpartum. 😫😫😫
Thanks a lot CC. Hmm..aloe vera on clean scalp is one of the things i would implement for scalp care going forward. 1. Can a sensitive scalp use this kind of scalp brush? 2. Can peppermint oil or lavendar water be used for treating itchy scalp or scalp prone to sore?
Yes, I would just be gentle with the brush when exfoliating. Also, tea tree, peppermint or lavender (4-5 drops) diluted in a light carrier oil like grapeseed or jojoba will be great for an itchy scalp. However, if you notice irritation please discontinue usage.
@@CurlyChemistry thanks so much for responding
Can you make a video on how to take care of your scalp and hair while your hair is in braids?
Thanks for the information you willingly provide all of us.
Question: as it relates to our scalp ph, I get so confused about when to do, for instance, a tea rinse if I am also doing an apple cider vinegar rinse that day (the order I should do it).
Question #2. How can we ensure our various homemade tea rinses are the proper ph?
Hey! You don't have to do both on the same day, it's okay to space it out, maybe your first wash day of the month is acv and the second is the tea rinse. As for the tea rinses, the pH should not go very high, but you can also purchase pH strips to confirm. :-)
Your hair n face n eyes brows are too gorgeous, Queen
Hey beautiful. Learned something new…”after conditioner,” wasn’t prepared for that right there! Always grateful. Question - what do you use to indicate “Ph balance around 4.5” that you recommended? Please advise
Hey! If you're measuring a liquid for pH then you can use pH strips. If you're referring to your scalp, usually if you have a pretty healthy scalp more than likely the pH is acceptable, however once you start noticing issues with your scalp then the pH could be off and implementing these routines will help see an improvement.
I never thought of a scalp brush. Thanks.
Thx..I BE ON THAT 😉 AND I WASH CONDITION exfoliate I have used aloe vera fresh aloe vera I have used the tea tree and all the good oils like sweet almond, grape seed plus leave in conditioner... until✌
One of the things that I’ve implemented this year is biweekly scalp massages with either my Haitian black castor oil or the Inala power potion. Two things that I’m going to try from your video is the ACV rinses. So many people have talked about this. I have used ACV before, I just can’t stand the smell, but I’m willing to try it again. And the scalp brush from Ulta…I’m on the Ulta app as we speak…lol
I my mind is trying implement a scalp routine by doing scalp massages at least twice a day. You answered my question as to what tool is best for detangling and the real benefit on the scalp brush. I’ve seen so many things for both. My scalp is basically more tender than itchy than oily. Does amazon carry the type of exfoliating brush or detangler comb?
I'm waiting for the fairy knot video !! Sending it to my sister too she has the same issue
Thamk you for this video. I use most of these methods. I have used the apple cider vinegar. And I have a scalp oil prescribed by My dermatologist that I use. I also use oil rinsing. And I do a pre-poo every time I wash my hair. I never thought to use the scalp brush. How do I use the scalp brush? Sending you Tanya, and everyone here love and light.❤️❤️🙏🙏☮️☮️
Thank you so much for your videos, they are so helpful.
Quick question.
Do Aloe vera gel or juice have any benefit for your actual hair, itself or is it best to use on the scalp?
My hair loves oil rinse-thanks to you! But, I want to start ACV rinses too-just don’t know when to add it?? I have high porosity hair and follow your pmp method. I prepoo with coconut oil the night before washing, shampoo with non-sulfate high moisture shampoo, deep condition with steamer/heat cap, detangle, rinse conditioner, add oil in shower-then lightly rinse oil out, add kinky curly leave in, and then kinky curly custard as my styler. I was thinking add the ACV rinse right after rinsing out deep conditioner (which would be before my oil rinse). So I would rinse out deep conditioner, spray hair with ACV in sections, let sit for a few minutes, then rinse the ACV out, then add sealing oil mix, let and then rinse oil out. Add my kinky curly leave in. Add my kinky curly custard as a styler and proceed to twists braids or wash and go etc. Would this be right for your PMP method?
Awesome video, you always deliver! I love your shirt by the way 😊❤️
Thank you!! 😊
I just did a ACV rinse yesterday and I left it on my scalp for 20 minutes and it felt amazing 🤩 I felt the fizzing/tingling sensation the whole time and after my wash my scalp felt great and clean. Is ACV exfoliating? Thanks 😊
Oh wow great!! Thanks for the tips!
Do you use straight ACV or do you add water to it?
Thank you so much I’m gonna try some of this. I’ve been having a really hard hair journey ever since I did the big chop in April my hair should be a lot fuller but it’s not because I have really bad scalp issues and when I itch it I’ll take a brush or something and used it to scratch my scalp which causes more bald spots to happen and I’m really discouraged😞
Just looove your videos. Looking forward to the fairy knot video as this is my struggle. So needed. I looooove fresh aloe vera as my prepoo, as this gives me great slip to detangle. Will try the acv rince. Tried acv in my bentonite clay mask and oh my ... another level of curl popping hair cleansing greatness. Thank you for your videos highly appreciated.
Hey girl, I shampoo, condition and rinse condition out and add aloe vera juice to hair and scalp, I spray it on. I seem to be at a stand still and I want my hair to go more. Any suggestions, oh I do a serum by Canvas beauty but only once a week. It has some really good things in it. Should I do that more often?
What should the ratio be for each oil in a diy hair growth oil?
Thank you!
I do most of the things that you mentioned but recently, I haven't been exfoliating my scalp much, so I need to get back on to this.
Thank you for this information, can't wait to put it all into action properly
Thank you, I’m doing lavender now, I’m making some Clover spray as I’m watching you and will start that next week . I’m not a 4C hair type I’m more 2C with gray and some left over henna of which I’m hoping it will grow out soon . Great meeting this afternoon and again thx.
Keep me posted with your results! ☺️
@@CurlyChemistry shall do I’m going to try the clove for one month and see how it goes. My hair has never been thick so I’m not looking for that to happen but would take a inch and be most happy.
