Ingredients: -1/2 cup of henna -1/2 cup of cassia -1/2 cup of aloe vera - 1 tbps of fenugreek -1/4 of olive oil/avocado/coconut oil Leave it for 4 hours or longer
My hair is getting so thick. Ever since I finished chemo, I thought my hair wasn’t going to grow back. Since I’ve been following you my hair is really growing. Even where it was thin is filling in.
AWESOME...That sounds great to me! Great for you and absolutely wonderful to me because my top fell out as if I had had chemo, but I haven't just anesthesia-too much and medications that take out your hair...the doc prescribing the meds had no clue! He said just buy yourself a good wig! SERIOUSLY!!!! I'm in crisis mode! Getting older didn't/doesn't really bother me....nothing bothers me like losing my hair! Especially when everyone else-females in my family still have all their hair! Granted a little less thick,but all of their hair and poor poor pitiful me is near bald and baby fine in the top! Sorry for whining, but my hair is part part of me-not just hair! I know y'all get it!!! So,I want to do exactly everything...including use the same brands when n where possible!!!
@@nancii-lii9483 Trust me, it’s not that serious. My comment was not directed at anyone in particular, but you obviously took it personal judging from your response, so maybe, “YOU don’t have those inches”? I guess you were just following your own advice and spreading love, hunh?
Hi! I am from India! I have been applying henna to my hair since I was 7 or 8, actually it's kind of common here. I have never chemically treated my hair. But thank you soo much for helping me to upgrade my henna routine. I have wavy hair and it has helped to make it more shiny and manageable in this humid weather.
MAITRI MINAR hennasooq channel has really good videos on recipes as well. Curly proverbs uses their products but they have how tos as well. I use henna to dye my hair so I mix a table spoon of aloe Vera powder and 1 or 2 tablespoons of Amla per 100gram package right in with the henna while I wait for dye release. I mix it with hot tea water. Tea is acidic enough. No need for lemon or vinegar it’s too drying. Aloe powder helps with moisture and slip. Makes it easier to apply.
I started using henna like 2/3 months ago and my hair is fuller, curly, and I've been getting so many questions about what I did to my hair, it's been a gamechanger🤗
I use amla and neem powders mixed with warm water well, then I add olive, coconut oils, my favorite deep conditioner and a little bit of fresh aloe Vera that juice my self. I left this on for 4 hrs unintentionally. The result was amazing 😉. Thanks for the inspiration. Your channel is amazing. I have done it 2x now. My hair has never felt so amazing, the curl definition was. So amazing. I think I will continue to do this monthly.
I tried this last weekend and OMG........my hair felt and feels soooo healthy and strong. Thank you Curly Proverbz!!! Up until this point, everything I've tried from your videos has been amazing. Thank you again.
I swear by your recipes! I started using the henna gloss + oil + tea recipes (can’t find that video you made) and my hair has completely TRANSFORMED! Curls are super popping and healthy and LONG… I can’t thank you enough for your recipes! 🥰😍 I’m trying to pass it to my cousin but I can’t find that video… I’ll just use this one because it will do. Also, aloe Vera is by far an absolutely Must ingredient and castor oil is the best oil for hair growth. Don’t worry about the smell, I have customized my recipes with lavender oils or more peppermint to mask the fenugreek smell (for others) I don’t care or mind the smell. Thanks CurlyProverbz 😊
In India you’ll find tons of ready to use henna masks and very affordable (less than $3). After watching your video I ordered a hair pack with 7 herbs mix (Henna, Amla, Fenugreek, Hibiscus, Neem, Bhringraj and shikakai). I’ll mix it with aloe and oil before applying. So excited. Thank you for connecting me to my roots. I tried your hair growth oil and I loved it. I’ve been using it for over 2months now and I can see a difference in my hair texture. It’s helped with dandruff also I believe. Not sure. Since I also use bentonite and kaolin clay mask every 2 weeks as well. But whatever it is my new routine which is all natural and inspired by you is working so good.
Curly proverbs ive been so inspired by you and your channel i just wanted to say i use alot of your diys and they work amazingly thank you so much .everyone i share your channel with falls in love with it
I watched so many videos yesterday trying to find one that had the ingredients I had, unfortunately I didn't have them but I had some so I said hey let me just mix what I have and some oils. It was so messy!! And a task to wash out. I went to sleep with my hair half dry. Only applied two leave ins, didn't do my usual shabang, just enough to give it a little moisture. I had my hair in a bonnet from yesterday night till now, I just took it out and my hair is shining! My curls look tighter! It's full! I am so shocked my hair looks amazing and this was just one application!!!!! Omg I have been missing out. I literally stood in the mirror for five minutes analyzing my hair and looking at how shiny and healthy it looked
Zion Brathwaite sis I feel you!! I had the same experience with my first use of henna gloss recently after 3 weeks of gloss decided to do a full henna and water and baby next level!!!
This mask right here...!!!!❤️❤️ This is so WONDERFUL! I’ve only been using the glosses, teas, rinses, sprays, and oils but you are right - this is definitely the next level and I absolutely LOVE IT!!! I love this so much that I’m going to use it every four weeks! Thank you, CP, for saving my hair! You are truly a blessing. 🤗🤗 Btw - In addition to the powders that you mentioned, I also used fenugreek powder. And I used a combined quarter of a cup of aloe vera oil and olive oil. Lastly, instead of using plain water, I only used aloe vera juice to mix the mask and WOW WOW WOW!!!! I added NO conditioner to the mask and my hair was completely detangled and soft and relaxed and i became in love with my hair all over again. 🙏
Just ordered the Henna Mask through Bella. I pray that this is the onset of the hair I've always wanted...My hair has been shoulder length for 7 years now. *keeping fingers crossed*
@@ChillVanille Hey now, future 6 year me replying.😆 The short. Yes, yes it did. Had the thickest and longest hair of my life. The not so short. Belle Bar Organics folded and no longer exists, which is a shame, damn good products. Not so short bad news, health set back last year and my hair still shows the brunt of the damage. But hey I did it once, I can do it again! This time using Curly Proverbz. We’ll see what 2024 brings. Wish you well!
My luv, when I tell you my hair and my daughters hair has grown since cutting our hair in April is too simple of a statement. I am a Licensed Cosmetologist and I know hair and the NORMAL way to bring the hair to life , but when i started using these ayuredic products, my hair was like "Gurl, I love you"!!!!! I have dealt with traction alopecia and major stress, which causes my hair to break signifigantly. But now it's thriving. Thank you so much for all you give to us.
I use the disposable gloves, either latex or latex-free, you can get some from Sainsbury's, when I do my henna. I can feel what I'm doing a bit better, and they don't tug on hair as much as the marigolds will.
🙏🏽 Perfect timing! Due for a full henna treatment (for my greys) & will try this recipe. Been using your hair oil recipe for a few months now & also lovin the addition of your tea & gloss. ➰➰ are 💪🏽 and healthy. Henna powder usually loosens my ➰ a bit. But I mixed your gloss with a diy amla/hibiscus deep conditioner ... OMG 😲... my curls were poppin!! I didn't experience (nor did I expect) a change in the color of my new growth, but it made the color from my previous henna treatment much more vibrant. Magical ✨
Hi Curly Proverbz! I've been immersing myself in your awesome educational hair tutorials. Thank you for sharing so much great content! I've been applying the oils however reluctant to apply henna because of the change in hair color. Nevertheless I need to color this gray. I recently purchased Cassia and indigo as well as avocado powder. Do you think I can add henna for its benefits without it affecting color or is that too much? Also is it ok to apply the henna mask 8 weeks after a salon color rinse?
I started using henna in October and my hair grew 6 inches and is soooo soft. We just moved to a new house this month and the water here is hard water which is taking a major toll on my skin and hair. I am going to try to make some shampoo and conditioner with a few herbs you have mentioned like shikaikai and marshmallow root! A lot of your tips help my 2 year old's super curly hair too. We're both whiteys but this stuff works! I just have to be careful on when I use oils and what oils I use cause my hair us so thick; it kinda weighs it down sometime. Anyway if you have any tips on hard water (high mineral content), I would love to hear them. You're awesome!
My favorite youtube channel! Your recipes saved my thinning hair and also make me feel so good when I pamper myself with them. Those ayurvedic plants really work!
Got your henna mask and strangely enough, I had been using a fenugreek oil mix that I got from Naturally Curly ife360 TV (props) to her) and now I can use them together? Fans and smelling salts please! I learned the importance of henna from you and found its the only thing that gives me the holy grail of max-mo on my lo-po (maximum moisture on my low porosity) hair! Continue to slay CP! Luv ya!
Have been using aloe Vera powder instead of citric acid in my homemade henna bars and it works very well to release henna, must be a great acidic additive! I will be trying this new recipe at the end of the month! Blessings!
Great video! I plan to try this very soon but I am not sure where to get Aloe Vera powder. I found the links in your growth oil video very helpful as I just ordered the same items as you. I am looking forward to trying this mask. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing info on fenugreek seeds. I must say prior to your video I wasn’t familiar with that seed. I did make the oil and tea and been using for the past 6 weeks . I’m loving the volume of my hair and yes the growth. I’m yet to find henna to incorporate. Thanks a million
Thanks for the great fenugreek/henna mask..I didn't have any aloe powder so I substitute it and used seaweed powder.(I have to get some aloe powder)Btw the seaweed powder worked great also I love your henna gloss mask as well.
I decided to use:- a small sachet of burgundy henna, spoonful of Amal, spoonful of Brahmi, some fenugreek seeds (ground), some olive oil, teaspoon of mixed oils & a little lemon (I was colouring as well as mask). I left overnight and added some warm water before applying.
l love the new video!! I'll definitely be trying that soon. I have fenugreek powder and the seeds. I'll use the powder in this gloss. Thanks a lot Curly Proverbs!!
IF IT WAS NOT FOR YOUI WOULDNOT GET HOW IMPORTANT HENNA IS FOR HAIR HEALTH. ALL THOSE OTHER RUclipsRS WILL GET ON THERE WITH THEIR THICK HAIR AND DOWN PLAY HENNA AS IF IT DID NOT HELP THEM. THANK YOU FOR BEING THE ONLY ONE WHO REALLY SHARES.
I have always had pretty okay hair and have been using henna for over 10 years now to colour/strengthen it, but only henna+water. May I say Your recipes definately took the henna game like.. 10 levels up for me (next step is getting the aloe vera and rose powders :)) my hair feels sooo soft and strong at the same time, and the shine...OMG! Btw have you tried adding yoghurt to your henna mixes? Can You tell us your opinion?
Hello so my understanding was 1/4 of oil to Fenngreek but then once you combined that you added it to the powders, was that water you then added or oil ? If so how much because then you say if you add to much it's very messy. Please help. Again did you apply this to dirty hair ?
Piwhite3529 I was also wondering if that was water mixed in after the oil and if so how much. I hate when a video is made and specific info needed is not given! Ijs....
I think it was water because, at the beginning of the video, she shares reviewers suggesting to swap out the water for Aloe Vera Juice instead. My confusion was with the amount of oil: 1/4c total Olive/Avocado oils combined or 1/4c of each oil?
I mixed mine with Aloe Vera juice. And I used 1/4 cup of Olive and Avocado oils combined since you don’t want to use too much oil as it counters the Henna.
where can I go to purchase your products? by the way your super hair growth oil with the fenugreek seeds grew my hair at least 2 inches in 2 months and I didn't even use the henna due to me having colored hair. Thank you so so much girl. I'm still trying to grow the front of my hair longer to catch up with the back of my hair and I use the oil on my husbands hair to help grow his hair in certain areas.
Hello girl, I found u 3 days ago and I'm absolutely mesmerized by you. By the passionate way you explain the properties of herbs, and off course your accent, perfection lol. I'm Brazilian but live in Florida, and never used this before. I cannot find Jamila henna near me, only Mehndi brand, it is good enough?Please please please help meto decide what to use; Aphogee 1&2 steps protein treatment or Henna. I'm shedding like crazy, it is very depressing. I don't know if I will ever grow a long hair like yours, but thank God your life in demystifying that black hair doesn't grow.
I have done a full henna/indigo treatment to colour my hair. How long do I need to wait to use henna glosses and how often. I plan to use the henna/indigo in another 4-6 wks as I've seen recommend. I just want to respect these powders and not overuse them to the detriment of trying out my hair. I guess I'm asking how out to do glosses in between doing a colour treatment! Hope you can respond to this older post. Thank yoi in advance and looking out for the Feb 2018 challenge.
christine1962ful Girl finally someone using indigo. How is that working for you? I want my hair to stay black and was afraid that reddish henna tint + blue/purple indigo= purple hair. I am in Alaska and very dry here and losing hair ever since I moved here. I need strength and moisture badly.
@Christine1962ful, she recommended that you do the hair glosses every week in between doing the intense treatment which should be done every six weeks to one month. If you are just starting out using Henna, Cassia, Indigo and the other powders i.e. Alma, Shikakai, Brahmi,, you might want to consider doing a gloss first to see how your hair will handle it and then in six weeks do the full treatment. Just a recommendation. I would also cut down on the amount of the powders say for instance, instead of using 1/2 cup, use 1/3 or 1/4 cup and then increase as your hair becomes stronger.
I did the Intense Henna Treatment on yesterday and slept in it overnight. I washed it out using very warm water only because I am doing the Water Only Hair Washing Method. I followed up with my Indigo. I used 1/3 cup of Indigo, Warm water and a pinch of salt. I let it sit for 20 minutes only for time release and applied it to my hair. I put on two conditioning caps and two grocery bags so no dripping and let it sit on my head for 3 hours. I rinsed my hair again using only very warm water to rinse it out and massaged my scalp and stritched and Preen my natural Sebum down the lengths of my hair. I wa going to use my Banana Baby Food to deep condtion, however, my hair did not need it. I used a little shea Butter on my lengths and sealed my ends with Jamaican Black Castor Oil after putting my hair in twists. My color is darker then I am use to because my hair has never been Black, however, I will try this a gew times to see how my gray coversge around my edges takes. So far, so good.
Hi curly proverbs love your channel I use to use aloe and stopped but naptusrlise got me bk into using it as a pre poo I found applying aloe to my scalp n hair helped and I follow up with henna mask which is the residue from your growth oil yes I didn't throw it away after extracting my growth oil n I use the growth oil weekly on my scalp I was not able to get my hair in a bun now I can people have been asking me I said curly proverbs she's great check her out l also do my own deep conditioner I've done the banana coconut milk and honey with coffee added n avocado with coconut milk n honey and aloe n it has been great thanks for the push. I'm yet to do my own flaxseed gel for now I use it n chai in my healthy shakes. thanks again for sharing with us.
I absolutely love this video!! I’m definitely sold, I’d love to try henna on my hair but my hair is jet black and I’d like to keep it that way. You mentioned it briefly on how to retain your hair color but I’m not sure if I understand it right?If combine this new routine with my weekly hair day (inc. shampoo, conditioner and deep condition) What would be the safest way to go about this? Can henna be used weekly?
Just made my first batch of gloss. On to make my first batch of mask but i'm going to let it cook for like 2 weeks until i'm comfortable and have finished the gloss.
I have been using your Growth Oil and I've achieved one inch in 3 weeks!! Also, my curl pattern is exactly like yours, what is your hair type? By the way, you're stunningly beautiful :)
I finally did and used today your this video recipe, your oil, and your tea! Stopped my shedding hair like the parting of the read sea! And the smell.... The smell is so damn decadent, wish I ha a bae to smell it lol! Thanks girl! Now I have to search the comments & videos to see which product I'm supposed to store in the fridge.
Fenugreek changed the game for me I love henna mixed with it. No more shedding no more ssk I love this mask I use every other week !!! You are amazing I love ur recipes and my hair is growing like a week 😘💋💋💋💋💋💐👍🏼😻😍
With the henna gloss you add a conditioner to it while with the intense mask you don't as to if you should deep condition afterwards depends on your hair as for me I definitely will because I have dry hair hopefully this helps
I have been experiencing crazy hair loss lately and my hair has become super fragile. I want to try your strengthening gloss+ oils. But I don't have curly hair 🙈. Its only slightly wavy.. will the treatments work the same way?
Sometimes with hair loss it not always products that you need. Look at your diet. Shedding can be caused by lack of Iron, protein, omega 3 and 6, vitamin D3, Zinc and magnesium. I suffered shedding and once I found out what I was lacking my shedding no longer exists. I hope this post helps.
Do you have a moisturizing routine? New to your channel so I'm not sure if I missed it, but I'm looking for an Ayurvedic deep conditioner for more moisture ! Thank you.
Thank you so much!!!!! Thank you for all the information that you posted. Your information is my lost and found to my hair. I love the emails from Belle Bar organic about porosity and I have learned so much more about my own hair.
Hi Curly, your hair is amazing... I have severe hair fall n trying everything possible. I used fenugreek seed, henna , olive oil and vitamin e capsules.. while applying the fenugreek smoothie gave me lot of hope. once washed my hair turned dry... my hair is extremely protein sensitive... anything I use it just dries up hair... I feel so lost.. if I use conditioner my hair fall is crazy .. I m taking vitamins tablets... do u have any suggestions 😢 for me...
Yogan Agapurkar I hope you found a solution! I eventually bought a tabletop hair steamer ($60) and use it with intense moisturizing treatment from the brand argan oil of morocco ($8). I use them together, weekly. It helps me with protein sensitivity.
Hi! I’m a new subscriber & just beginning to use Ayurveda in my hair regimen. I was wondering if there is a difference b/w using aloe Vera juice vs aloe Vera powder?? Does one tend to be more beneficial than another?? Thank you! LOVE your videos!
Hey, when have u seen the most hair growth, when u don't wash for up to 2 weeks or when u clean/ wash your scalp regularly weekly or more than once a week?
Sweetheart, thank you so much for the amazing videos you've been giving us. I love them so much that i cant stop watching them. Its been part of my daily routine. The videos are so much that am getting confused. Pleeeeeeeease..... Curlyproverbz, am lost. Whats is the difference between the GLOSS and the MASK. Am new to this natural hair journey an loving my hair now. I am using the oil and am loving it. I would appreciate it if you could make a video explaining these terms. The difference between GLOSS and MASK. And how and when to use them. Thanks so much. You are my Mentor and Role Model when it comes to natural hair. I am giving myself this challenge that i want to grow my hair like yours. I want to prove to all those who discouraged me from going natural that you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you. And following someone like you. I am so proud of you my dear. So so proud of you. Keep the good work. Can you kindly do a meet up in the UK as well? Thanks.
I already have long natural hair but I really plan to use this to get it to be tailbone length because right now its bra strap middle of my back length. I really LOVE this and I have gone to eBay and will be ordering this stuff all today as well as Aloe Vera. Its also refreshing to hear someone who uses British slag- I live in America now but in Barbados we used to be colonized by you all and even with our independence we still use British education and language and slang. NONE of my American friends know what's up!
What if you use henna for coloring gray hair about every 2-3 months? I use it as a spot treatment on my edges every 2 to 3 months. Then I'll do a full roots all over the head 2 to 4 times a year. Do you suggest still using this henna mask or should I just use cassia glosses in between my henna coloring? Love your videos!!!
TheJanicetunes do you use indigo after the henna? I have 4c hair and would like to keep black color and I have grey around my front edges too. I heard indigo would help with keeping the color black, but to me reddish tint + blue = purple,lol. Too old to be rocking that.
I use aloe Vera juice only.. I am planning on listening to this video. I have never used any henna as of yet.. Fenugreek and amla rice 🍚 as well.. My hair has been itchy.
have been following you for many years, thanks for all support. Can you please share which henna you are using? Shea cottage henna seems not to be available.
I want my hair to stay black and was afraid that reddish henna tint + blue/purple indigo= purple hair. I am in Alaska and very dry here and losing hair ever since I moved here. I need strength and moisture badly. Plus I have grey hair around edges. I have purchased henna, fenugreek, aloe vera juice, indigo and elive deep conditioner, just nervous about use. We have NO salons here if I mess my hair up.
@Nyrshea Williams RHIT, CCS, if you want your hair to stay black, you will need to do what is called the two step process. The first day, you can use the Henna treatment that Curly Proverbz recommended above for the strengthening. If you do not want any change in color, do not use the Henna, use the Cassia only and the remaining ingredients, you could substitute the Henna with Alma and use the Cassia and other ingredients. Cassia is what is referred to as "Neutral" Henna. Some people attest to it, I have heard others say it is not the same as Henna. However, with everything, there is a trial and error period and you have to test it out for yourself to see how it works for you. Step 2 - You will do the next day. This is using the Indigo. Now I am going to say, PLEASE FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THE PRODUCT OR GOGGLE HOW TO PREPARE AND USE INDIGO ON AFRICAN AMERICAN NATURAL HAIR. Once you prepare your Indigo, you are only suppose to let it sit for 20 (twenty) minutes and then apply it directly to your hair. I believe it only takes 2 hours for it to do the trick with giving you that Black or darker color and it will cover your greys. I have the same issue with greys around my edges as well. Also, check out some other You Tubers who strictly use Cassia, Alma and Indigo to cover their greys and strengthen their hair. You can do this treatment once a month or every six weeks and use other powders like Alma, Shikakai, Brahmi, Aritha, Neem (These are all Hesh Brands and can be purchased on line at Amazon.com for about $13.00) and use one or two of the powders to make a Hair Mask to include your favorite Moisturizing Deep Conditioner and some oils if you like adding oils to your mixes (Olive, Castor, Sweet Almond, Avocado, Grape seed, Castor Oil, Jamaican Black Castor Oil etc., I would use only one or two oils and a few drops of your favorite Essential Oils like Peppermint, Lavender, Rosemary, etc. Use Curly Proverbs recipe or tweet your own and make you an herbal hair tea to use once or twice a week for additional strengthening. These are only suggestions and I hope this helps. Find other naturals who have similar hair pattern as you and see how they use henna, powders, herbs and teas to grow out their locks. Two of my favorite are Dawn Michelle , who has a hair blog The Minimalist ( www.minimalistbeauty.com/category/hair/ ) and Curly Nikki (CurlyNikki.com) Please keep in touch and let me know how things go. I reached out because I use to be in the U.S. Air Force and when I was in, especially overseas, there were no one who could do African American Hair, even when I had a relaxer, so I know how it can be. You can reach me at Janice.Jones.Sanders@gmail.com All the best to you and your natural hair journey. Janice
Janice Jones Sanders ...Girl thank you so much. I have watched so many videos that things were starting to run together, lol. I will purchase those other supplies you mentioned. Up here in Barrow, AK, there are a few of us up here and all of my black friends are experiencing problems due to the extremely dry air and of course temps in the negative 30s during winter. I am going to screenshot your instructions. Once again thank you and if I run into a problem, I will definitely reach out. Not too much though. Don't want to be that bugaboo.
Nice hair@curly proverbs. I'm transitioning, will the mask work for me? Also, I do not have henna for now, could I use bhringraj powder till I can get the henna?
Januarymay1127 hi. Hope you don't mind me answering. I use henna for conditioning and coloring my gray. It becomes a coppery red color for me which I love almost as much as how it treats my hair. My natural hair color other than the gray is dark brown with natural red highlights. I use the hennas from hennasooq.com. Hope this helps. Be blessed, Robin.
How do I purchase in the UK, is there a specific link to purchase your products. Must mention that I have only just come across your channel an I'm loving it. Keep doing what you doing.
Can you explain the mask vs the oil to me vs the glosses? Also is the link in the description box for the hair mask for this video, cause it says updated..little confused!!!Sorry..Also could you put in the link the recipe easier for us that want to print.Ty.Stay beautiful
NJ CAMOCUTIE all 3 contain similar ingredients. The mask and gloss strengthen and moisture hair - length retention. The mask is a stand alone product you just follow the recipe. It can be difficult to work with cause of the henna.The gloss which she sales is pre-made, add-on product, add it to your conditioner or even the mask. The oil is used on your scalp for hair growth stimulation, just massage into your scalp. Hope this helps!!
I love your videos! I find them very informative and I'm about to give your regiments a try. Quick question, where can I purchase the henna and fenugreek?
Ingredients:
-1/2 cup of henna
-1/2 cup of cassia
-1/2 cup of aloe vera
- 1 tbps of fenugreek
-1/4 of olive oil/avocado/coconut oil
Leave it for 4 hours or longer
Thank you so much Luisa, I was just getting ready to write all this down.
Don't forget to adjust based on YOUR hair length and thickness
Thanks 💕
Luisa Peralta Martínez thanks

I totally second that

Hi!
I am from India! I have been applying henna to my hair since I was 7 or 8, actually it's kind of common here. I have never chemically treated my hair. But thank you soo much for helping me to upgrade my henna routine. I have wavy hair and it has helped to make it more shiny and manageable in this humid weather.
MAITRI MINAR hennasooq channel has really good videos on recipes as well. Curly proverbs uses their products but they have how tos as well. I use henna to dye my hair so I mix a table spoon of aloe Vera powder and 1 or 2 tablespoons of Amla per 100gram package right in with the henna while I wait for dye release. I mix it with hot tea water. Tea is acidic enough. No need for lemon or vinegar it’s too drying. Aloe powder helps with moisture and slip. Makes it easier to apply.

Thanks uh saved my time 😁😁
Thank you
I started using henna like 2/3 months ago and my hair is fuller, curly, and I've been getting so many questions about what I did to my hair, it's been a gamechanger🤗
YES 🙌🏽
I use amla and neem powders mixed with warm water well, then I add olive, coconut oils, my favorite deep conditioner and a little bit of fresh aloe Vera that juice my self. I left this on for 4 hrs unintentionally. The result was amazing 😉. Thanks for the inspiration. Your channel is amazing. I have done it 2x now. My hair has never felt so amazing, the curl definition was. So amazing. I think I will continue to do this monthly.
I tried this last weekend and OMG........my hair felt and feels soooo healthy and strong. Thank you Curly Proverbz!!! Up until this point, everything I've tried from your videos has been amazing. Thank you again.
did you use any conditioner or oils after?
I swear by your recipes! I started using the henna gloss + oil + tea recipes (can’t find that video you made) and my hair has completely TRANSFORMED! Curls are super popping and healthy and LONG… I can’t thank you enough for your recipes! 🥰😍 I’m trying to pass it to my cousin but I can’t find that video… I’ll just use this one because it will do. Also, aloe Vera is by far an absolutely Must ingredient and castor oil is the best oil for hair growth. Don’t worry about the smell, I have customized my recipes with lavender oils or more peppermint to mask the fenugreek smell (for others) I don’t care or mind the smell. Thanks CurlyProverbz 😊
So encouraging. Thank you for your testimony 💜

In India you’ll find tons of ready to use henna masks and very affordable (less than $3). After watching your video I ordered a hair pack with 7 herbs mix (Henna, Amla, Fenugreek, Hibiscus, Neem, Bhringraj and shikakai). I’ll mix it with aloe and oil before applying. So excited. Thank you for connecting me to my roots. I tried your hair growth oil and I loved it. I’ve been using it for over 2months now and I can see a difference in my hair texture. It’s helped with dandruff also I believe. Not sure. Since I also use bentonite and kaolin clay mask every 2 weeks as well. But whatever it is my new routine which is all natural and inspired by you is working so good.
That is amazing!
You remind me of leona Lewis so gorgeous x
Curly proverbs ive been so inspired by you and your channel i just wanted to say i use alot of your diys and they work amazingly thank you so much .everyone i share your channel with falls in love with it
I watched so many videos yesterday trying to find one that had the ingredients I had, unfortunately I didn't have them but I had some so I said hey let me just mix what I have and some oils. It was so messy!! And a task to wash out. I went to sleep with my hair half dry. Only applied two leave ins, didn't do my usual shabang, just enough to give it a little moisture. I had my hair in a bonnet from yesterday night till now, I just took it out and my hair is shining! My curls look tighter! It's full! I am so shocked my hair looks amazing and this was just one application!!!!! Omg I have been missing out. I literally stood in the mirror for five minutes analyzing my hair and looking at how shiny and healthy it looked
Zion Brathwaite sis I feel you!! I had the same experience with my first use of henna gloss recently after 3 weeks of gloss decided to do a full henna and water and baby next level!!!
I’m sorry I did add fenugreek powder Moringa powder and few drops of rosemary oil I did have to deep condition right after!
This mask right here...!!!!❤️❤️ This is so WONDERFUL! I’ve only been using the glosses, teas, rinses, sprays, and oils but you are right - this is definitely the next level and I absolutely LOVE IT!!! I love this so much that I’m going to use it every four weeks! Thank you, CP, for saving my hair! You are truly a blessing. 🤗🤗
Btw - In addition to the powders that you mentioned, I also used fenugreek powder. And I used a combined quarter of a cup of aloe vera oil and olive oil. Lastly, instead of using plain water, I only used aloe vera juice to mix the mask and WOW WOW WOW!!!! I added NO conditioner to the mask and my hair was completely detangled and soft and relaxed and i became in love with my hair all over again. 🙏
Whats your hair porosity?
Sans Nom Low porosity and very protein sensitive.
Fenugreek powder could work also. Right? Please confirm. Love your input on hair care. Thank you
Just ordered the Henna Mask through Bella. I pray that this is the onset of the hair I've always wanted...My hair has been shoulder length for 7 years now. *keeping fingers crossed*
Did you make your goal?
@@ChillVanille Hey now, future 6 year me replying.😆
The short. Yes, yes it did. Had the thickest and longest hair of my life.
The not so short. Belle Bar Organics folded and no longer exists, which is a shame, damn good products.
Not so short bad news, health set back last year and my hair still shows the brunt of the damage.
But hey I did it once, I can do it again!
This time using Curly Proverbz. We’ll see what 2024 brings.
Wish you well!
@@ColdDiva thanks for replying! I too loved Belle Bar and was sad that it folded.
I used to go through all these steps. Now I just mix my henna with conditioner. So much easier start to finish. Same result.
Really? I saw Babilion (sp) just mix her neem powder in her conditioner as well...Keepin' it simple, yet effective.
The most henna in the world grows in Somalia , as a little girl every Friday was henna day and I still used.
@Hodan La Cuisine Do you still do it every week though? And when you were little in Somalia was it a full henna mask?
My luv, when I tell you my hair and my daughters hair has grown since cutting our hair in April is too simple of a statement. I am a Licensed Cosmetologist and I know hair and the NORMAL way to bring the hair to life , but when i started using these ayuredic products, my hair was like "Gurl, I love you"!!!!! I have dealt with traction alopecia and major stress, which causes my hair to break signifigantly. But now it's thriving. Thank you so much for all you give to us.
I use the disposable gloves, either latex or latex-free, you can get some from Sainsbury's, when I do my henna. I can feel what I'm doing a bit better, and they don't tug on hair as much as the marigolds will.
I’m doing this today , I thought about it and typed it in and here you are. With that said I know I’m on point.
Excellent recipe 👍👏I will definitely do this treatment😍😃thank you so much🙏🙏You are simply AMAZING🙏🙏👏👏😍😍😃
Also thank you thank you thank you ! you are awsome I appreciate you so much! Your products have really kept my wavy curly mane strong and long💜💜💜
3:54 starts the Henna Magic 😍
I just did a fenugreek treatment OMG the detangling was amazing! I added the powder to my DC, side note strain the powder next time!
Right .... I love it when you find new ingredients that you can go crazy over fenudgreek and aloe vera powder have been doing that for me :)
Curly Proverbz do you do the gloss every other week and the mask 1x/month? is that what you meant?
Porsche Williams gloss every week w/tea and the mask once every 4/6 weeks
Nap Freedom215 How do you strain the powder?
Yes how do you strain the powder??
🙏🏽 Perfect timing! Due for a full henna treatment (for my greys) & will try this recipe. Been using your hair oil recipe for a few months now & also lovin the addition of your tea & gloss. ➰➰ are 💪🏽 and healthy. Henna powder usually loosens my ➰ a bit. But I mixed your gloss with a diy amla/hibiscus deep conditioner ... OMG 😲... my curls were poppin!! I didn't experience (nor did I expect) a change in the color of my new growth, but it made the color from my previous henna treatment much more vibrant. Magical ✨
itsme74 wow what amazing feedback.... so happy xox
itsme74 thank you
Curly Proverbz I need help my hair is thinning sheds alot. I purchased hair mask and tea rinse. Can I use them together?
itsme74 did you use Angio with henna
Hi Curly Proverbz! I've been immersing myself in your awesome educational hair tutorials. Thank you for sharing so much great content! I've been applying the oils however reluctant to apply henna because of the change in hair color. Nevertheless I need to color this gray. I recently purchased Cassia and indigo as well as avocado powder. Do you think I can add henna for its benefits without it affecting color or is that too much? Also is it ok to apply the henna mask 8 weeks after a salon color rinse?
I started using henna in October and my hair grew 6 inches and is soooo soft.
We just moved to a new house this month and the water here is hard water which is taking a major toll on my skin and hair. I am going to try to make some shampoo and conditioner with a few herbs you have mentioned like shikaikai and marshmallow root!
A lot of your tips help my 2 year old's super curly hair too. We're both whiteys but this stuff works! I just have to be careful on when I use oils and what oils I use cause my hair us so thick; it kinda weighs it down sometime.
Anyway if you have any tips on hard water (high mineral content), I would love to hear them.
You're awesome!
I bought a shower filter and can tell the difference on skin and hair. Look it up on other videos with naturals using shower filters.
I use bottled water on my hair for the final rinse
please keep up the great work that you are doing I'm now natural and I use your old videos for my hair growth
I’m in love with your hair regimen ingrediients❤️
Where ya been during my natural hair journey??
Thank you ☺️
I'm giving this a shot. I love your results. So I am confident that I will do this right the first time. Thank you in advance.
My favorite youtube channel! Your recipes saved my thinning hair and also make me feel so good when I pamper myself with them. Those ayurvedic plants really work!
It’s really nice that you have actual measurements for us this time, thank you :) x
Hey Sis I love you so much , you have change my hair life. And I thank you.
I am so happy i found your channel. I can't stop watching ! much love from Brooklyn NY ~peace and love lsj
My aloe Vera powder just came in. I'm doing this this weekend. I mixed up some of your mask with your tea and my hair came out glorious.
OMG, you are so BEAUTIFUL!!! Thank you for helping me grow my hair 😊
Got your henna mask and strangely enough, I had been using a fenugreek oil mix that I got from Naturally Curly ife360 TV (props) to her) and now I can use them together?
Fans and smelling salts please!
I learned the importance of henna from you and found its the only thing that gives me the holy grail of max-mo on my lo-po (maximum moisture on my low porosity) hair!
Continue to slay CP!
Luv ya!
After you washed out the mask, you didnt put any oils/product in your hair before difussing?
I used the henna to make a mask. My hair became brittle and broke off so bad. Be sure to test this first. My hair is super protein sensitive.
Henna isn’t a protein
Have been using aloe Vera powder instead of citric acid in my homemade henna bars and it works very well to release henna, must be a great acidic additive! I will be trying this new recipe at the end of the month! Blessings!
Those curls are poppin
Great video! I plan to try this very soon but I am not sure where to get Aloe Vera powder. I found the links in your growth oil video very helpful as I just ordered the same items as you. I am looking forward to trying this mask. Thanks for sharing
Coco Bean i got aloe powder on amazon from bulk supplements
Thanks for sharing info on fenugreek seeds. I must say prior to your video I wasn’t familiar with that seed. I did make the oil and tea and been using for the past 6 weeks . I’m loving the volume of my hair and yes the growth. I’m yet to find henna to incorporate. Thanks a million
You're welcome... happy to hear you're getting great results.. 😊
So happy I found your channel!!!!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Ordered my products off Amazon can't wait to try them allll 😘
Thanks for the great fenugreek/henna mask..I didn't have any aloe powder so I substitute it and used seaweed powder.(I have to get some aloe powder)Btw the seaweed powder worked great also I love your henna gloss mask as well.
I decided to use:- a small sachet of burgundy henna, spoonful of Amal, spoonful of Brahmi, some fenugreek seeds (ground), some olive oil, teaspoon of mixed oils & a little lemon (I was colouring as well as mask). I left overnight and added some warm water before applying.
l love the new video!! I'll definitely be trying that soon. I have fenugreek powder and the seeds. I'll use the powder in this gloss. Thanks a lot Curly Proverbs!!
Hello!
Can I use Fenugreek Power instead of using Fenugreek Seeds?
Gorgeous curls gorgeous personality.Subscriber 4life💕
IF IT WAS NOT FOR YOUI WOULDNOT GET HOW IMPORTANT HENNA IS FOR HAIR HEALTH. ALL THOSE OTHER RUclipsRS WILL GET ON THERE WITH THEIR THICK HAIR AND DOWN PLAY HENNA AS IF IT DID NOT HELP THEM. THANK YOU FOR BEING THE ONLY ONE WHO REALLY SHARES.
I have always had pretty okay hair and have been using henna for over 10 years now to colour/strengthen it, but only henna+water. May I say Your recipes definately took the henna game like.. 10 levels up for me (next step is getting the aloe vera and rose powders :)) my hair feels sooo soft and strong at the same time, and the shine...OMG! Btw have you tried adding yoghurt to your henna mixes? Can You tell us your opinion?
yassss thank you Queen💎!!!! Lifesaver for my hair!!!
I use a little yogurt to help mine distribute easier instead of water. Just a couple table spoons helps loads
Hello so my understanding was 1/4 of oil to Fenngreek but then once you combined that you added it to the powders, was that water you then added or oil ? If so how much because then you say if you add to much it's very messy. Please help. Again did you apply this to dirty hair ?
Piwhite3529 I was also wondering if that was water mixed in after the oil and if so how much. I hate when a video is made and specific info needed is not given! Ijs....
I think it was water because, at the beginning of the video, she shares reviewers suggesting to swap out the water for Aloe Vera Juice instead. My confusion was with the amount of oil: 1/4c total Olive/Avocado oils combined or 1/4c of each oil?
I mixed mine with Aloe Vera juice. And I used 1/4 cup of Olive and Avocado oils combined since you don’t want to use too much oil as it counters the Henna.
Where did you buy aloe vera powder do the indian store sell it can i use fengureek powder instead of the seeds
You can get aloe vera powder at hennasooq.com
where can I go to purchase your products? by the way your super hair growth oil with the fenugreek seeds grew my hair at least 2 inches in 2 months and I didn't even use the henna due to me having colored hair. Thank you so so much girl. I'm still trying to grow the front of my hair longer to catch up with the back of my hair and I use the oil on my husbands hair to help grow his hair in certain areas.
Can I use a real aloe plant instead of the aloe powder?
Mermaid Curlz I use the fresh leaf and my hair falls in love each time
Hello girl, I found u 3 days ago and I'm absolutely mesmerized by you. By the passionate way you explain the properties of herbs, and off course your accent, perfection lol. I'm Brazilian but live in Florida, and never used this before. I cannot find Jamila henna near me, only Mehndi brand, it is good enough?Please please please help meto decide what to use; Aphogee 1&2 steps protein treatment or Henna. I'm shedding like crazy, it is very depressing. I don't know if I will ever grow a long hair like yours, but thank God your life in demystifying that black hair doesn't grow.
I have done a full henna/indigo treatment to colour my hair. How long do I need to wait to use henna glosses and how often. I plan to use the henna/indigo in another 4-6 wks as I've seen recommend. I just want to respect these powders and not overuse them to the detriment of trying out my hair. I guess I'm asking how out to do glosses in between doing a colour treatment! Hope you can respond to this older post. Thank yoi in advance and looking out for the Feb 2018 challenge.
christine1962ful Girl finally someone using indigo. How is that working for you? I want my hair to stay black and was afraid that reddish henna tint + blue/purple indigo= purple hair. I am in Alaska and very dry here and losing hair ever since I moved here. I need strength and moisture badly.
@Christine1962ful, she recommended that you do the hair glosses every week in between doing the intense treatment which should be done every six weeks to one month. If you are just starting out using Henna, Cassia, Indigo and the other powders i.e. Alma, Shikakai, Brahmi,, you might want to consider doing a gloss first to see how your hair will handle it and then in six weeks do the full treatment. Just a recommendation. I would also cut down on the amount of the powders say for instance, instead of using 1/2 cup, use 1/3 or 1/4 cup and then increase as your hair becomes stronger.
I did the Intense Henna Treatment on yesterday and slept in it overnight.
I washed it out using very warm water only because I am doing the Water Only Hair Washing Method.
I followed up with my Indigo. I used 1/3 cup of Indigo, Warm water and a pinch of salt. I let it sit for 20 minutes only for time release and applied it to my hair.
I put on two conditioning caps and two grocery bags so no dripping and let it sit on my head for 3 hours.
I rinsed my hair again using only very warm water to rinse it out and massaged my scalp and stritched and Preen my natural Sebum down the lengths of my hair.
I wa going to use my Banana Baby Food to deep condtion, however, my hair did not need it.
I used a little shea Butter on my lengths and sealed my ends with Jamaican Black Castor Oil after putting my hair in twists.
My color is darker then I am use to because my hair has never been Black, however, I will try this a gew times to see how my gray coversge around my edges takes.
So far, so good.
Wow stunning, qquestion, is it better using the fenugreek powder or seeds for any mix and same question goes if i make the oil ? Seeds or powder
Awesome 😍, do you apply the henna to freshly washed hair, or do I treat it as an extended pre poo?
Hi curly proverbs love your channel I use to use aloe and stopped but naptusrlise got me bk into using it as a pre poo I found applying aloe to my scalp n hair helped and I follow up with henna mask which is the residue from your growth oil yes I didn't throw it away after extracting my growth oil n I use the growth oil weekly on my scalp I was not able to get my hair in a bun now I can people have been asking me I said curly proverbs she's great check her out l also do my own deep conditioner I've done the banana coconut milk and honey with coffee added n avocado with coconut milk n honey and aloe n it has been great thanks for the push. I'm yet to do my own flaxseed gel for now I use it n chai in my healthy shakes. thanks again for sharing with us.
I absolutely love this video!! I’m definitely sold, I’d love to try henna on my hair but my hair is jet black and I’d like to keep it that way. You mentioned it briefly on how to retain your hair color but I’m not sure if I understand it right?If combine this new routine with my weekly hair day (inc. shampoo, conditioner and deep condition) What would be the safest way to go about this? Can henna be used weekly?
Just made my first batch of gloss. On to make my first batch of mask but i'm going to let it cook for like 2 weeks until i'm comfortable and have finished the gloss.
I am so enjoying following you with all the wonderful hair tips. I want to thicken my hair but a little confused about where to start. Can u help?
This looks so interesting I have to try it
I literally had my hair out, didn't protect it or anything, it was a lazy day! I can't believe these results!
I love your videos and your hair please What's difference between a gloss a mask and a treatment
Do you shampoo your hair before using Henna?
Yes
I’ve been doing henna mask for years once a month but found it drying my hair so I will adapt it filleting your recommendations
I have been using your Growth Oil and I've achieved one inch in 3 weeks!! Also, my curl pattern is exactly like yours, what is your hair type? By the way, you're stunningly beautiful :)
I finally did and used today your this video recipe, your oil, and your tea! Stopped my shedding hair like the parting of the read sea! And the smell.... The smell is so damn decadent, wish I ha a bae to smell it lol! Thanks girl! Now I have to search the comments & videos to see which product I'm supposed to store in the fridge.
Fenugreek changed the game for me I love henna mixed with it. No more shedding no more ssk I love this mask I use every other week !!! You are amazing I love ur recipes and my hair is growing like a week 😘💋💋💋💋💋💐👍🏼😻😍
Is the henna mask the same thing as the henna gloss? & should you deep condition after this treatment?
SimplyNarshaaa no and yes
With the henna gloss you add a conditioner to it while with the intense mask you don't as to if you should deep condition afterwards depends on your hair as for me I definitely will because I have dry hair hopefully this helps
Girly...I got both in the Max quantities!! will be doing this weekend they just came in the mail😊😊😊
Where did you get your henna powder from ? i dont trust some of the henna powders found on majority of online sources .
I have been experiencing crazy hair loss lately and my hair has become super fragile. I want to try your strengthening gloss+ oils. But I don't have curly hair 🙈. Its only slightly wavy.. will the treatments work the same way?
Narayani Kalnawat Shreetama Chowdhury's comment below mentions using the recipes on wavy hair.
Sometimes with hair loss it not always products that you need.
Look at your diet.
Shedding can be caused by lack of Iron, protein, omega 3 and 6, vitamin D3, Zinc and magnesium.
I suffered shedding and once I found out what I was lacking my shedding no longer exists.
I hope this post helps.
Do you have a moisturizing routine? New to your channel so I'm not sure if I missed it, but I'm looking for an Ayurvedic deep conditioner for more moisture ! Thank you.
Thank you so much!!!!! Thank you for all the information that you posted. Your information is my lost and found to my hair. I love the emails from Belle Bar organic about porosity and I have learned so much more about my own hair.
Hi Curly, your hair is amazing... I have severe hair fall n trying everything possible. I used fenugreek seed, henna , olive oil and vitamin e capsules.. while applying the fenugreek smoothie gave me lot of hope. once washed my hair turned dry... my hair is extremely protein sensitive... anything I use it just dries up hair... I feel so lost.. if I use conditioner my hair fall is crazy .. I m taking vitamins tablets... do u have any suggestions 😢 for me...
Yogan Agapurkar I hope you found a solution! I eventually bought a tabletop hair steamer ($60) and use it with intense moisturizing treatment from the brand argan oil of morocco ($8). I use them together, weekly. It helps me with protein sensitivity.
Hi! I’m a new subscriber & just beginning to use Ayurveda in my hair regimen. I was wondering if there is a difference b/w using aloe Vera juice vs aloe Vera powder?? Does one tend to be more beneficial than another?? Thank you! LOVE your videos!
Hey, when have u seen the most hair growth, when u don't wash for up to 2 weeks or when u clean/ wash your scalp regularly weekly or more than once a week?
Sweetheart, thank you so much for the amazing videos you've been giving us. I love them so much that i cant stop watching them. Its been part of my daily routine. The videos are so much that am getting confused. Pleeeeeeeease..... Curlyproverbz, am lost. Whats is the difference between the GLOSS and the MASK. Am new to this natural hair journey an loving my hair now. I am using the oil and am loving it. I would appreciate it if you could make a video explaining these terms. The difference between GLOSS and MASK. And how and when to use them. Thanks so much. You are my Mentor and Role Model when it comes to natural hair. I am giving myself this challenge that i want to grow my hair like yours. I want to prove to all those who discouraged me from going natural that you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you. And following someone like you. I am so proud of you my dear. So so proud of you. Keep the good work. Can you kindly do a meet up in the UK as well? Thanks.
OMG same here. I'm so confused too, information overload.,but i love this page.She inspired me to grow my hair.
I agree she has amazing hair what kind of henna is that you use
I already have long natural hair but I really plan to use this to get it to be tailbone length because right now its bra strap middle of my back length. I really LOVE this and I have gone to eBay and will be ordering this stuff all today as well as Aloe Vera. Its also refreshing to hear someone who uses British slag- I live in America now but in Barbados we used to be colonized by you all and even with our independence we still use British education and language and slang. NONE of my American friends know what's up!
What if you use henna for coloring gray hair about every 2-3 months? I use it as a spot treatment on my edges every 2 to 3 months. Then I'll do a full roots all over the head 2 to 4 times a year. Do you suggest still using this henna mask or should I just use cassia glosses in between my henna coloring? Love your videos!!!
TheJanicetunes do you use indigo after the henna? I have 4c hair and would like to keep black color and I have grey around my front edges too. I heard indigo would help with keeping the color black, but to me reddish tint + blue = purple,lol. Too old to be rocking that.
I use aloe Vera juice only.. I am planning on listening to this video. I have never used any henna as of yet.. Fenugreek and amla rice 🍚 as well.. My hair has been itchy.
have been following you for many years, thanks for all support. Can you please share which henna you are using? Shea cottage henna seems not to be available.
I want my hair to stay black and was afraid that reddish henna tint + blue/purple indigo= purple hair. I am in Alaska and very dry here and losing hair ever since I moved here. I need strength and moisture badly. Plus I have grey hair around edges. I have purchased henna, fenugreek, aloe vera juice, indigo and elive deep conditioner, just nervous about use. We have NO salons here if I mess my hair up.
@Nyrshea Williams RHIT, CCS, if you want your hair to stay black, you will need to do what is called the two step process. The first day, you can use the Henna treatment that Curly Proverbz recommended above for the strengthening. If you do not want any change in color, do not use the Henna, use the Cassia only and the remaining ingredients, you could substitute the Henna with Alma and use the Cassia and other ingredients. Cassia is what is referred to as "Neutral" Henna. Some people attest to it, I have heard others say it is not the same as Henna. However, with everything, there is a trial and error period and you have to test it out for yourself to see how it works for you. Step 2 - You will do the next day. This is using the Indigo. Now I am going to say, PLEASE FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THE PRODUCT OR GOGGLE HOW TO PREPARE AND USE INDIGO ON AFRICAN AMERICAN NATURAL HAIR. Once you prepare your Indigo, you are only suppose to let it sit for 20 (twenty) minutes and then apply it directly to your hair. I believe it only takes 2 hours for it to do the trick with giving you that Black or darker color and it will cover your greys. I have the same issue with greys around my edges as well.
Also, check out some other You Tubers who strictly use Cassia, Alma and Indigo to cover their greys and strengthen their hair.
You can do this treatment once a month or every six weeks and use other powders like Alma, Shikakai, Brahmi, Aritha, Neem (These are all Hesh Brands and can be purchased on line at Amazon.com for about $13.00) and use one or two of the powders to make a Hair Mask to include your favorite Moisturizing Deep Conditioner and some oils if you like adding oils to your mixes (Olive, Castor, Sweet Almond, Avocado, Grape seed, Castor Oil, Jamaican Black Castor Oil etc., I would use only one or two oils and a few drops of your favorite Essential Oils like Peppermint, Lavender, Rosemary, etc.
Use Curly Proverbs recipe or tweet your own and make you an herbal hair tea to use once or twice a week for additional strengthening.
These are only suggestions and I hope this helps. Find other naturals who have similar hair pattern as you and see how they use henna, powders, herbs and teas to grow out their locks. Two of my favorite are Dawn Michelle , who has a hair blog The Minimalist ( www.minimalistbeauty.com/category/hair/ ) and Curly Nikki (CurlyNikki.com)
Please keep in touch and let me know how things go. I reached out because I use to be in the U.S. Air Force and when I was in, especially overseas, there were no one who could do African American Hair, even when I had a relaxer, so I know how it can be. You can reach me at Janice.Jones.Sanders@gmail.com All the best to you and your natural hair journey. Janice
Janice Jones Sanders ...Girl thank you so much. I have watched so many videos that things were starting to run together, lol. I will purchase those other supplies you mentioned. Up here in Barrow, AK, there are a few of us up here and all of my black friends are experiencing problems due to the extremely dry air and of course temps in the negative 30s during winter. I am going to screenshot your instructions. Once again thank you and if I run into a problem, I will definitely reach out. Not too much though. Don't want to be that bugaboo.
Such beautiful hair. Do you apply the gloss after shampooing? Do you condition after? What are the steps?
Yes
could I use fenugreek powder instead of fenugreek seeds
Susan Carter-Ash girl I've been asking that too but with no reply so I went ahead and used the powder and it works just fine u just have to strain it
MY HAPPY NAPPY Yes, I do. I sound seeds or powder overnight with water them blend them into a paste.
Yes hun! The powder is just seeds that have already been ground :)
Where do you get your Henna? I'm so afraid to buy it because some are awful! Thank you! I'm now obsessed with your channel!
Nice hair@curly proverbs. I'm transitioning, will the mask work for me? Also, I do not have henna for now, could I use bhringraj powder till I can get the henna?
Positively glowing.
2ruBee thank you my darling
Curly Proverbz great video. Could I omit the henna since I have gray hair? Question what colour would henna turn the gray??
Januarymay1127 hi. Hope you don't mind me answering. I use henna for conditioning and coloring my gray. It becomes a coppery red color for me which I love almost as much as how it treats my hair. My natural hair color other than the gray is dark brown with natural red highlights. I use the hennas from hennasooq.com. Hope this helps. Be blessed, Robin.
Januarymay1127 you can use indigo over the gray hair that turned copper red to black
R.M. Dailey me too. ❤️ it
Januarymay1127 henna turns the grey a copper auburn colour. You can use cassia instead x
How do I purchase in the UK, is there a specific link to purchase your products. Must mention that I have only just come across your channel an I'm loving it. Keep doing what you doing.
Can you explain the mask vs the oil to me vs the glosses? Also is the link in the description box for the hair mask for this video, cause it says updated..little confused!!!Sorry..Also could you put in the link the recipe easier for us that want to print.Ty.Stay beautiful
NJ CAMOCUTIE all 3 contain similar ingredients. The mask and gloss strengthen and moisture hair - length retention. The mask is a stand alone product you just follow the recipe. It can be difficult to work with cause of the henna.The gloss which she sales is pre-made, add-on product, add it to your conditioner or even the mask. The oil is used on your scalp for hair growth stimulation, just massage into your scalp. Hope this helps!!
I love your videos! I find them very informative and I'm about to give your regiments a try. Quick question, where can I purchase the henna and fenugreek?
hennasooq.com/collections/moroccan/ and amazon for the fenugreek
