I regret all the greasy hair days I lived through because of the “washing your hair once a week” myth
That shit made my hair fall out at one point- ridiculous lol
Omg and all the days I let people see me with the slickness of it.💀
@Silver & Cold I noticed that too! Dr Dray saved meeee
I think washing your hair less would be for people with textured hair.
Saaaaame!! 😩
I m using littleexttra rosemary reactivate hair growth serum from two weeks. Here is my review:
1- Great mix of ingredients
2- Noticeable results in just 2 weeks that I got from it
3- Lovely bottle with spray pump and quality packaging
4- Non-sticky and simple to use
I've also been dedicatedly using the Reactivate Hair Growth Serum, and my hair is feeling much more volume and appears significantly denser too.
serum of reactivate manages significant hair fall in two weeks. Personally, it decreased my hairfall by 80%, but the remaining 20% was still there.
i'm so glad you mentioned the first one bc if *one* more person tells me it's bad for my hair that i wash it everyday or that "all i have to do is train it" i'm going to explode. i've tried "training it" numerous times for years (including during quarantine) & it never, ever adjusts. some people just have an oily scalp y'all 😅😅 it's hereditary for me
That's interesting, I have heard other haircare people say that you should shampoo as infrequently as you can without being gross haha so if it's everyday then that is fair enough! I also have oily skin and probably scalp too so I'm hoping it gets better with age!
i’ve tried “training” my hair so many times for years and it never worked out. now that i wash my hair daily it’s never been better! :)
Different hair types need different care. When I was fallowing that myth my hair looked terrible and greasy. Now I wash my hair every day and it looks amazing 🤩
The problem with this company is the price, I don’t want to pay over $50 for on 16 oz shampoo.
This is misinformation lol. $50 for both 16 oz shampoo AND conditioner.
@@JenniferTrika, that's still a lot!
@@JenniferTrika thats an insane price
I bet its not even ethically produced..
The sell a line at Target. I think each shampoo and conditioner is $10 for 11 ounces each and the add-ins are $3 each.
@@JenniferTrika plus the shipping. Ridiculous…
I’m glad Dr Dray clarified that while washing hair every day is fine for a lot of people, it isn’t for everyone. My hair is so dry and I’ve seen a ton of improvement by going a few days between washes instead of every day like I used to. I wash twice a week, which is the perfect amount for me. Any longer and I start getting greasy hair, but go any shorter regularly and my ends start looking really bad. While a lot of people can wash every day and be fine, that isn’t the case 100% of the time.
I appreciate the information. I recall a lot of these myths were instilled in beauty school. A lot of stylists are taught misinformation because hair care products are great sources of revenue for salons/stylists.
Suggestion for part 2: pulling out a Gray/white hair will cause you to produce more
LOL….👍
I thought I was the only one who had been told that nonsense 😂
@@TheMocao I’ve been told it since I was a child! You pluck one, two more grow back. I’ve even been told it by my hairdresser🤣
I wish that were true. :( I want grey hair!
The myth i hear a lot is = sulfates are bad for the hair. My hair is really oily and shampoos with sulfates are a savior.
Yes, same! I tried to go sulfate free for my wavy/curly hair, but my hair was disgusting for a year and I had to go back to sulfates. My hair is healthy now and my waves/curls are beautiful.
@@karleyjojo Do you mind sharing what helped your hair? I have wayv hair type but it's been very dry and hence frizzy and nothing has worked much for me. :(
Sulfates are bad for 'hair color' they can strip or dull your color treated hair.
SLS?
@@OO-ct4hq yes
Thanks for the hair care tips and busting some of the myths. As someone with fine, thin hair that's past my shoulders, I'm always interested in ways to help keep it healthy. Appreciate your hard work. Happy Wednesday, Dr Dray! I hope you have a peaceful evening. 💟
So glad to hear this. Scalp health is hair health. Not washing grime and grease off of it seems counterintuitive for good hair. Great content as always!
How I "fixed" my thin hair patches: I put eyeshadow on my scalp until it grew back 😩🤣
I do it on parts of my hairline, lol
Same! I use a brow liner pencil!
I have a weird hair color- none of the products match! I’ve even tried blush and bronzer. 👩🏻🦰🤷🏼♀️
omg this is genius
@@ambergerhelper7852 dye them then
I have been suffering from sudden hair fall for two weeks now. This video is much required. Thanks🧡
Function of beauty is so overly sponsored online and, for me, the products were not good. I was so so disappointed by their shampoo. The conditioner was ok, but I still have half a bottle of the shampoo as I just couldn’t use it anymore. I have gone back to my kerastase and pureology. (Also when I tried to leave a review, it never appeared online. Which explains the good trust pilot reviews).
I tried it too and was not super impressed. I actually liked the shampoo but not the conditioner. I’m very particular about conditioner and it didn’t fit the bill. I canceled my subscription after the first use.
I think they are expensive too. I don't spend big money on shampoo, I just get it when its discounted. I use anything shampoo wise and love anti dandruff shampoo. I'm not fussy though.
@@KristenKras which are great local shampoo and conditioner and cheap
I'd love a video on hair care ingredients - which to look for for different hair concerns and which to steer clear of. It's so so difficult to find accurate information on hair care and even more difficult to then translate that into what to buy and what to avoid!
Okay, as someone who is crazy about hair care and has very long and healthy hair for years, I was skeptical about the video, but actually I was surprised! Everything said in the video is true and I'm glad finally someone with a bigger platform is trying to stop the spread of these myths. Like dr Dray said, wash your hair everyday if your scalp needs it. Trim the ends only if your hair needs it. Observe your hair and how it looks after certain products. Silicones are not that bad and actually they're great for protecting the end of your hair or whenever you feel like your hair is more prone to breakage. One more thing I'd add is that yes, your hair does not get used to products, but it may need change in the ingredients. For instance, your hair is supposed to have a balance between proteins, humectants and emollients. So if you use only one conditioner with mostly emollients, your hair will lose its volume, it will be heavy and it will turn into thick strands of hair. On the other hand, if you use too many humectants, your hair will be frizzy, puffy etc. That's why I recommend having a couple of conditioners to keep PEH balance. BTW. I do not know if I recommend the function of beauty. Just read about them on reddit and the ingredients they put before buying.
I appreciate your points and that you put so much into writing this. It’s really helpful! For what’s in Function of Beauty I have found that I can find better if I’m supposed to be paying a dollar a wash. I’ve been the happiest with Redken Acid Bond. But we’re all different and needs different things.
I hate when people ask me how I grew my hair out, and when I say “just don’t cut it” they get all angry talking about how that doesn’t work and is damaging 🙄
Same 😂
So Truuuuuuee
long hair remind me of old mountain women who religious believes do not cut hair. how nasty long hair is for real young people as i see this old terolls with lng hair an weigh 200 lbs. cut hair tacky sues
@@tomsanders4484 ...what?
@@tomsanders4484 omg thank you ill go cut my hair for you right now i mean what was i thinking haveing long beautiful hair...lol you couldn't handle a woman with long hair!!
I do put Carol's Daughter conditioner on my scalp and not just the ends of my hair. I don't know if it's different than other conditioners, but it really feels great on my scalp.
Thank you. I am going back to washing my hair everyday now. I am so happy we have trusted people like you Dr. Dray to clarify these things.
Just ordered the starter kit. Hope I love it as well. Thank you Dr. Dray.
Thank you! I have always felt bad about washing my hair every day or every other day thinking that it’s “bad” for my hair but my hair is thin and straight and gets oily quickly. Yay! Now I can feel good about washing my hair every day. And it makes sense our hair is dead so why would getting trims at the bottom affect the growth. If you have split ends then yes cut them off but if not, getting trims all the time won’t do anything. Preach dr dray! ❤️
My hair thinned, terrible hair loss .... your long hair is beautiful ... pray your mom is doing good 🙏🏻
My hair started thinning years ago. I started using sulfate free shampoo and cone free conditioner.I also quit coloring !My hair has never been healthier. I think if I’d kept going the way I was, I’d be bald by now. I’m 67 and I have long hair past my bra strap.
And the pup
Why did your hair thinned
Please do a part 2! 💖 I need it 🥺
I wish that you was my dermatologist. I feel like my dermatologist doesn’t care a lot about her patients like you do. The first time that I saw her, which was to go on Accutane, she wanted me to buy a $100 facial lotion that she created and she knew that I was on Medicaid so she should have known that I wouldn’t be able to afford something that high in price. She is the only dermatologist in my city that takes my insurance so I have no choice in trying to find a different dermatologist.
Ask her the active ingredient that will help you. In that way you can find options based on that ingredient.
Wow, sorry to hear that! Mine usually does mention ingredients and only once mentioned a brand (which was not hers). So, I agree with Carol, try to ask the active ingredient!
I went to mine twice. The second time (I walked an hour to get there) they asked if I was using the medicine,I said yes. Then they said that was it & charged me $70. Never went back.
If you're going in for something like accutane, ask for the active ingredients. At pharmacy you can ask for a generic(some pharmacies will consult with your doctor to switch to one) buy it should get you out of using whatever $100 cream she's recommending. Unless it doesn't have a generic or you have other health concerns.
go check out online stores where you can get acne pills or creams from other countries. check out the alldaychemist
More people need to watch this video. There's so much misinformation about shampoo and hair washing going around that people are recommending to not use shampoo. While that may work for some people, maybe people with drier scalps, for someone like me with sebbhoreic dermatitis on my scalp, that is the worst advice I could receive. Ever since I started washing my scalp more I noticed my scalp is in better condition and my hair looks fuller. I swear at one point it was thinning because I wasn't using shampoo often enough. Now it looks great again
One of the myths, shampoos to use for hair loss, is a desperate attempt, for those of us with thinning hair, to find help for this situation. I know the various shampoo companies that claim this, know it too. It’s very disheartening to hear there’s nothing, other than prescriptions and monoxidil, to help.
Would you say it’s best to seek medical advice/go to the dermatologist?
Yes that's completely different than preventing hair breakoff
Such awesome info especially on the hygral fatigue!!
I believe your channel is the best channel on RUclips, no one is sharing this amount of knowledge with others on a free platform anymore
Great tips, Dr. Dray! Love it 💕
Thanks!
@@DrDrayzday Can thinning hair be hereditary in men please?
Much love from Australia 👍
Thank you! What youtubers said that I should wash my hair once a week did not work for me personally. My hair felt extremely greasy and fell out too much when not washed. So I continued as I normally did, using daily shampoo and my hair regained its strength.
i was gone for a few months, but im back and totally noticed your hair! looks great dr dray!
WOW! Your channel has really grown. Congratulations!
Thanks for watching
I'm grateful for this video. I'm going to start washing my scalp daily, but keep to washing the rest of my hair with shampoo every 2-3 days. I stopped washing my hair daily a few years back thinking it would make it healthy, but my scalp actually starts to hurt after a day or two if I don't wash it. It literally aches!
From a very long, thin and rarely trimed hair girl and impossible to wash less than once every other day without getting crazy scratching my head : THANK YOU !!!
Thank you so much for this vid. I have felt vaguely guilty for years because I wash my hair daily and there’s so much info out there saying it’s bad to do this. I have been using Function of Beauty from Target for the last couple months and 💙 it.
Hi Dr Dray, can you do an updated video over psoriasis, and treatments like biologics? Thank you ♥️
I tried for YEARS to go days between washes because I bought in to the myth that daily washing would harm my hair. Now that I've been washing daily my hair has never looked better!!! I LOVE my Function of Beauty!!! I'll never go back 💜
Oh my god, Dr Dray can read my mind. I was thinking about hair care. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
thank you for making such informative videos 🥰❤️
Thank you for this video. I'm suffering from hair loss because i'm a breastfeeding mom and people around me had mentioned 4 out of 5 myths you mentioned here. And i'm doing these things for a week now. 😅
Grew up in hot, humid S Florida and have always showered and shampoo every day. Now retired to desert SW so on occasion skip a day.
I'm on month 2 of using IRestore. I got one a couple of months ago using your link. So far I have noticed a good bit of reduction in hair loss. Not seeing regrowth yet but hopeful.
I just got one because it worked for one of my friends. She didn’t see hair growth until the 8 month mark! Just to let you know to keep at it.
Thanks for your tips!!! So helpful!
Another great video Dr. Dray! Thank you for the info. I am always trying to learn more about appropriate care for my daughter's thick, course, curly hair. I see many stylists saying that dry, curly hair needs more moisture in the form of water (not oil/silicone based products). Is this wrong? Does your statement about moisture apply to this type of hair too? I know dif types can have vastly dif needs. Thank you 💜
I’d love to learn more about silicones in hair products. I’ve heard “they seal the hair and prevent moisture from getting into the hair”.
It's extremely satisfying that your video is exactly 15 minutes for 5 pieces of advice 😌
I’m so glad to hear you say that about trimming you can oil or maintenance your ends. I just dust when needed. 🙌
So true about the monthly trimming. When I stopped that my hair got long. I have since cut it off, but it does work!
First! Happy hump day, Dr. Dray, and viewers. Dr. Dray, thank you for your consistency!!
Thanks for watching
Dr. Dray would you please comment on research linking frontal fribrosing alopecia with sunscreen and facial products?
Thank you Dr. Dray!
You look great!
Happy Wednesday dr. Dray! I promise I didn't forget to wear my sunscreen today 🧴🕶️⛱️
This video makes me so happy 😊 I'm on a hair growth journey and so many people tell me I shouldn't wash my hair daily........its so infuriating
I always laugh when I hear “split ends won’t grow”. I do have my hair trimmed every 6-8 weeks though. The trim does get rid of the split ends and makes it look healthy and “bouncy”.
I havent cut my hair for 1,5 years.. split ends also dont "travel up" i would know..
@@suides4810 They do travel up the shaft. You’re gonna notice once you cut it because the shaft will be hollow lol cut your damn hair
The end itself will never grow since hair grows from the follicle. But the ends will only become more damaged. I’d say if your hair is in generally healthy condition, you can trim it 1-2x every year, maybe even none if it’s completely “virgin.” But most of us are exposed to damage just from the environment, day to day mechanical damage (if we style it up or pull it back) etc.
@@CL-fs3kt if she just said she never experienced her split ends traveling up the shaft, how can you tell her about HER experience as if y’all have the same head ? 😂 you also learned about trims in the internet. I never cut my 3b hair and my ends are still moisturized and healthy 😭
@@ash00001 She didn’t say her split ends don’t travel up, she just said split ends in general don’t travel up which isn’t true. It’s like when you get a run in your stockings. Unless you never go outside and never touch your hair, that’s what happens. Your hair can still be healthy and have a few split ends. LOL
Thanks for this video Dr. Dray! I would really like to know if brushing our hair damages it and how frequently can we do it without causing harm?
My daughter adores the FOB stickers, I’ve ordered even the body wash , we love it, my husband had his starter kit too lol, we even have a kit for our toddler as it’s paraben and sulphate free,
Happy Summer, Andrea 🌸🤍 I shampoo every day. 😀
Good Morning Dr Dray,
Could you please make a video about PFA’s in personal care products. I’m especially freaked out because they were found in 85% of waterproof mascaras, Over 50% of long wear/ waterproof foundations, waterproof eyeliners, long wear lip products etc. Worst of all, the concerning ingredients are often not listed on the ingredient list. 😟 I would love to hear your thoughts. thanks 🙏🏻
I'm sure she'll put something up. Some folks I know are waiting before they do (like Lab Muffin).
Thanks Dr. Dray! Video request: review for my topicals products :)
See Dr Alexis Stephens' videos, Favorite Black Owned Skincare Products Part 1. She's reviewed the faded and like butter. You can also check out Lateef Saka and even No BS Beauty.
Hello Dr.Dray .. This generates light on some of my speculations of shampooing frequency. 😊😊😊
Thanks for watching
I’m a once or twice a week hair wash person. My scalp doesn’t tolerate waiting any longer than that. It works for me
I know it's probably too much, but most days I feel the need to wash my hair twice a day, in the morning and at night.
Granted, I live in Brazil, so its very hot, and besides, I must have some kind of condition that I am still unaware of, because I'm always feeling so hot and sweaty ALL THE TIME, even when everyone else around me is feeling just fine. It's really bothersome, really. I can't imagine what it will be like for me when I hit menopause.
I have severe seborhea in my scalp and itchiness also. Once a doctor told me I should wash my hair every single day and it made it a LOT better, because my scalp really cannot tolerate not being washed frequently.
And if I'm feeling hot and sweaty I feel so botherered and miserable. So having my hair freshly washed helps me feel as if my whole body temperatura is cooler.
Hey girl, I’m sure there’s a lot of medical conditions out there, but I resonate with feeling hot and sweaty all the time despite people around me being okay, and feeling like I need to shower twice a day. I have hyperthyroidism which is the reason I feel hot all the time. I suggest that being one of the things you maybe ask your doctor to check for!
@@danikasea9711 Thank you for sharing sweetie! My mom actually has hypothyroidism, so from time to time I have it checked.
I often feel like I'm on menopause but I'm just 30 😂
Thank you again for replying, lots of love and have a great week ❤️💕😊
You are the best Dr Dray, wish I lived near you so you could be my doc!
I would like to request that you do a myth busting video about curly hair "methods" and products. Thank you for your consideration.
since moisture leaves hair brittle, are hyaluronic acid hair products bad for hair?
Happy Wednesday Dr Dray!
happy wednesday!!
@@DrDrayzday Thank you!
I am so happy about your FOB promo. I love them so much, I realized that custom made stuff is a lot more expensive, but in the end I know it works. I spend so much money on shampoos and skin care and never gott the results I wishes for... Since I use custom made stuff it just works and in the end I don't need to work my way through the whole store to find something that works a bit
Happy Wednesday Dr Dray...see you tomorrow x💙🤩
Happy Wednesday dr Dray and everyone 😀 Thank you so much enjoy 🥰🥰🌻

Could you maybe make a video going into further detail on moisturizing hair and hydral fatigue, please? Also maybe a curly hair care myths like this one. Thank you!
Yes, please! I have wavy/curly hair and my hair is so frizzy lately even with added strong med/hold gel from Curlsmith and Purology shampoo and Condioner…
I LOVE Function of Beauty!!!
Thanks for another great video~ any thoughts on scalp brushes used in the shower?
Yesss want to know more!!
It’s free shipping to Australia ! Just ordered your offer to try
Are clarifying shampoos beneficial? And do you still recommend the product for hair growth?
Very helpful tips, esp if you should shampoo your hair daily or not.
Hi Dr. Dray, I have very coily hair that is prone to dryness/breakage, are you saying these hair type doesn't really require a lot of moisture, I have heard that coily/curly hair needs all the moisture it can get, I also suffer from seborrheic dermatitis and I have to use Nizoral shampoo at least once a week and this dries out my hair very badly, i always use conditioner afterwards, I use highly botanical based water soluble gels for styling, they contain lots of humectants and i layer anti-humectant gels on top, do you think this is a right approach to hair care, how do we balance our peculiar hair care needs with all the science/facts about hair in general, any advice will be gladly appreciated. Thank you
Have a great day!!
Pls do a myths part 2! This was great! Pls address the you can “train” your hair to produce less oil by only shampooing it every couple of weeks. I’ve heard this a lot through the years. Didn’t think oil production of the scalp could be “trained”?
You just get used to the feeling of a dirty scalp. Ew. Just wash your hair. We have lovely products now that don’t harm your hair. When I was a kid, we only washed our hair once a week because shampooing frequently actually did harm hair. That’s because our shampoo was basically dish soap, harsh. I do remember how smelly my hairband got from all the dirt and oils. Now the shampoo is actually good for your hair and scalp. Old wives tales just keep hanging on even when circumstances change.
Hi there Dr. Dray!! What are your thoughts on protective hairstyles? I hope you have a good one🤗
Six weeks is perfect for me because my hair grows quickly and I like to keep it cut into the style. It makes it so much easier to have it done every 6 or 7 weeks so that it always looks the same
You look great Dr dray!
Most common thing I hear : You can train your hair to need washing less often.
Tried it several times lol, I was miserable. Now I wash every day or every two days. I hate having dirty hair.
People who say you can train your hair = people who say your armpits are detoxing while switching to natural deodorant
@@mahnikt it's a paradox that the *clean* movement advocates dirty hair with build up and stinky sweat.
@@mahnikt tried it for 2 years with different methods and products. Didn’t work *whatsoever*. I do believe most folks though when they say training worked for them.
Mine is this way. I only need to wash a few times. Granted I try to buy as natural as I can because we’re sensitive. But I don’t think it’s a myth
I think this mostly comes from different hair types having different needs. And because the Curly Girl Method specifically was pushing this idea- and they get a lot of their hair are ideas from the natural hair movement.
Which means that a lot of those tips are great for people with very dry, very curly or textured hair. But not so much for anyone else. For me, I wash my hair every week or two. But my hair is super dry, as is my scalp. I never appear oily. Ever. Which is pretty handy when you’re disabled and can’t wash your hair often anyway- no one can tell when I lay washed my hair. It’s not as soft by the end of my wash cycle, but it’s never oily. In fact, I put leave in conditioner and extra hair oils in to it every couple of days, and I need to.
So for some people, washing less often is definitely better for their hair. Shampoo can be pretty harsh on very dry (as on oil-free, not as in water free. Just like skin) hair. As can getting it soaking wet, because water swells the hair shaft, which makes it more vulnerable to breakage. So if you have very dry and very curly hair, washing less often is the way to go. But straight hair, or hair that isn’t super dry- washing more often is the way to go. I really dislike when people give proclamations that they say apply to everyone. That’s never the case, because everyone has different needs, and the best thing to do is to work out what works best for you and your specific situation and goals.
THANK YOU for myth #1! I have long healthy hair and I wash it every single day yet lots of people gasp when I tell them that I wash my scalp every single day, otherwise the dirt and oils cause me hair loss.
U r soo pretty... I love u❤️❤️..
@@vivek3872bruh leave her alone stop being a creep
Thank you for this. Is silicone something that should be avoided in hair products?
Dr Dray: I have a question about using shampoo. Is the wash, rinse and repeat correct? Do I wash till my hair is squeaky clean, or is that bad? I wash my hair every 3 days.
DR DRAY YOU ARE MY INSPIRATION ❤️
Dr. Dray's hair is amazingly beautiful and amazing how quickly it grew out.
I have tried so many times to not shampoo as often. I’m just getting over it again. It’s been 5 months - since Jan - that I have been trying to hair wash once a week. My scalp never stopped producing oil. Now I am back to every other day and I’m much happier.
I do conditioning washing on my hair for the last year and it has greatly eliminated my split ends. I also stay away from products with sulfate and silicones.
When I get itchy scalp, I mix equal parts of ACV+ water , spray on my scalp and let it sit for 15-30 min before stepping into the shower. I live in a tropical country.
Great video, Dr. Dray!
What is your opinion on scalp scrubs?
It’s sounds awful to me, but I could be wrong! 😆
She has a video talking about this, scalp exfoliation: must dos for healthy hair. She says that people who probably should avoid them are people who've been diagnosed with psoriasis and eczema.
I wish you would have addressed the fact that when you have split ends (which is inevitable) those splits can travel up the hair shaft, continuously splitting, and then breaking 3, 4 or 5 inches up from the bottom of your hair. This breakage then makes it APPEAR like your hair isn't growing which is why a lot of people find their hair grows "faster" when it's trimmed regularly. The reality is by getting regular trims you're preventing that split end from doing more damage.
If the damage is inevitable as you said then trims are not preventing anything, trims are strictly for the hairs appearance by creating better shape/symmetry it’s not preventing the inevitable.
The first part is true but you don't fix by trimming, you fix by strengthening the hair

This is older video but I watch your content just subscribed 😀
Purple shampoo for gray hair. Is it a good idea? What should I use to emphasize my graying hair? I want a safe product that gives great results.
Thanks for all the wonderful videos.
I did the no poo method for 8 months and destroyed my hair! The hair stylist said my hair was totally protein deficient and to use egg white masks. I had to get a lot cut off due to the damage. Now I wash it every other day and use conditioner and a heat protectant.
I’ve been no pop for 3 months and it’s the best thing I did for my hair
My hair is thick and oily and I’ve been trying to shampoo only twice a week because I definitely thought shampooing everyday was bad.
Valuable info right from the get go, thank you 🙏🏽
My hair is fine and oily, I wash my hair daily. I remember my mother only washed her hair weekly. As she aged her thick hair thinned. I believe partly due to hairspray buildup on the scalp. The scalp is the soil for our hair if it’s bombarded with chemicals that can’t be good. If I didn’t wash my face daily what a mess my face would be at my age!😂
I also have oily hair and washed it everyday for years. I changed hairdressers and the new hairdresser suggested that I try a texturising hairspray when I blow my hair dry. I spray it on the roots and style as usual. It's called Sexy Hair Texture High Tide. Sally's Beauty Supply carries it but they never have it in stock. So I order from Amazon and it's about $20 a can. This product allows me to go 3 days in between Washings, makes my hair feels so soft and wonderful. The can lasts me about a month-and-a-half to two months. Obviously if you have short hair you probably would use less. It's been a game-changer for me and you might want to give it a try.
@@brigitte9999 Your face? Because of the oily hairs falling down on your face?
If you haven't already, you could also try ditching the conditioner if your hair is as short as it is in the picture there. Might work better for you. If the oils have no trouble reaching the ends, as it shouldn't with short straight hair and a regular amount of oil production, then it's generally not necessary and makes the scalp oily quicker, which can lead to some annoying stuff sooner. Hair should still come out nice and soft.
@@Siberius- is conditioner really necessary for short men hair after shampoo?
Great video! I am always confused about the one that’s: silicone is bad for hair. My hair doesn’t look great when I use silicone free but is it really better? I actually love my function of beauty but when I switch my hair isn’t as great
Dr Dray, can you please share the options that you choose for your FOB shampoos and conditioners, conditioning treatment and serums. I really want to place an order but the options confuse me a little. Some of the goals seem as if they are really similar. I read the description when I choose each and realize that they convey what oils and such will be added. Would you ever be willing to do a video diving further into these ingredients, the way that you do with skincare. Thanks so much for always making lovely content. You are my favorite RUclipsr!!
Happy Wednesday Everybody!! Have a Great Day!!
Doc, need some inputs on natural shampoos and sulfate-free shampoos. Are they really beneficial?
coming from someone with curly hair, they're fine as long as you use a clarifying (sulfate) shampoo occasionally to remove build-up. hope my input was helpful :)
Sulfate-Free shampoos are good for people who have itchy scalp after washing hair with Sulfate-shampoo, and the natural shampoos are not always gentler than Sulfateones they can be harsh or mild too
As a curly girl, I avoid harsh cleansers at all cost. I don't feel the need to use them, my scalp isn't dirty, washing once per week with a sulfate-free cleanser is enough. I follow the curly girl method by Lorraine Massey, therefore only use water soluble products, so I don't get buildup (most people claiming they follow cgm actually use heavy oil and butter based products + waaay too many of them and then expect gentle cleansers to remove it... and when it doesn't work, they run around blaming cgm... sadly...)
I use only natural shampoos, (because they make my hair look the best). I don't know why that is, I never read much into what sulfates etc are. But I know that natural cosmetics on my skin will remain my second choice. Just not as potent as regular products.
My understanding is that the one sulfate to probably avoid is sodium LAURYL sulfate. That sulfate is the one scientists use as a comparison when testing the irritancy of ingredients. She has said that sodium lauryl sulfate and to a lesser extent sodium laureth sulfate can be drying especially if you have sensitive/dry/eczema on the scalp and can cause more itching and discomfort.
Have you considered doing a video reviewing shampoo and conditioner bars? I've heard good things about HiBAR, but haven't transitioned over to solids yet. :)
Thank you, Dr. Dray! My question is: Can Sodium Chloride in shampoos cause hair loss? TY
