@@powdagirl6239 Try Curlsmith products!!! They are amazing. If you use them properly, they work great. It is my go to when I want to wear my natural curls. I literally have used/tried every single one of them when I want to wear my natural curls.
I am a black woman with coarse, shoulder-blade length curly hair that I have been wearing, blown out, and sometimes straightened. I got all the products you recommended for my hair type, and I have to say, I love them. I went 10 days before washing my hair. This time I decided to blow it out, then use my curling wand (It took a while), and then hairspray to keep the curls. Day three, and I still have the curls. All the products you have suggested work brilliantly in my hair. I am so glad I found your channel! Thank you.
@@carolynlevy3786 Redken hair cleansing cream on scalp, rinse and then small amount of Moroccanoil moisture repair shampoo. Moroccanoil moisture repair conditioner or Moroccanoil intense hydrating mask, depending on how my hair felt or needed that week. Pureology color fanatic leave in conditioner spray {LOvE THIS} A little bit of olaplex 6 and Redken frizz dismiss rebel tame cream mixed together and applied to hair combed through and blow-dry. And finally Redken thermal spray if you plan on curling or flat ironing. Lightly spray it on top and underside of hair, and brush until you can't feel it then use heat. 😁This is what I do.
I'm a triathlete. That means a lot of sweat and chlorine or salt water.. I'd love to see a video on how to properly care for my fine hair under these conditions.
Me too! I am NOT a triathlete but I am increasing my physical activity as an obese young lady in Texas and that means I’m sweating quite a bit throughout the day everyday
Your hair washing method has definitely helped me. Last week, I was feeling lazy and did a single wash in my old way. On day 2 my hair was greasy, wet looking and flat to my head. Using your method, I usually get that on day 4!
Hi there I am currently using champo pitta growth serum, champo balancing shampoo and conditioner and styling cream. I have thick fine hair. Is it worth it using growth serum?
So many hairdressers have told me that I have fine hair but from what you say it’s medium. And that makes so much sense because my hair weighs down so quickly. You’re a star, thank you!
Interesting feedback. I have coily Afro-textured hair that is fine in diameter and medium in density, but which is also soft, and is prone to frizz. There is nothing coarse about it. Just because hair has a texture doesn't mean it is coarse. I need to carefully monitor moisture levels for both my hair and my scalp. I couldn't maintain my hair with just three products. In fact, I currently use six products on a regular basis, and two once a month. I do use professional products, and have for over 30 years. They do in fact make a huge difference in the feel and appearance of both hair and scalp. It would be instructive to hear the Blowout Professor speak on his knowledge and experience with Afro-textured hair, and how his tips, strategies and recommendations apply.
I have Afro hair and his healthy hair routine works so well for my hair. I used to be a product junkie and put everything from soup to nuts to moisturize my hair. I hated wash day. Now I love to wash my hair, 3 products, well 4, because I flat iron so I use a heat protectant. But my hair is the best it’s been in a very long time.
@@piapenny Thank you for your reply. I have recently begun to follow tight curl stylists who advocate for a "less is more" approach when it comes to products. Just three high-quality products. I am glad your hair is thriving.
Just by applying the hair oil and leave in conditoioner CORRECTLY as you advised in one of your videos - I could see a drastic improvement in frizzyness. 🤩I am so grateful and still in shock that my processed and very long hair could ever be looking so good again! 😲Thank you so much Chris. 🙌🏻✨Would you be able to do a video on how often to apply oil and leave in, as well as demonstrate on someone happy to voluteer as to how to apply it for visual learners, please? Thank you so much again from a very happy medium hair subscriber. 😊🦋✨
@@carmencox6700i washed my grey hair with purple shampoo and it turned into blonde hair for absolutely no reason, no one can explain why it happened but now my hair is blonde
As a new stylist I love learning new things and this was very helpful understand different hair types and what to do! Also that trick about only rinsing your hair out in-between washes when swimming and going in the ocean have made a vast difference if some of my clients hair and even my own I love learning all these new tips and tricks! 🙂
I need to thank you for putting this advice on RUclips. I just recently found your channel and after watching your videos, I purchased products specifically for my hair. I stopped coloring my hair a few years ago so I have salt and pepper hair. More pepper than salt. I have fine hair and a lot of it. I began using purple shampoo because of my grey hair. Today, I used the Redken volumizing shampoo followed by the Pureology leave in conditioner then the Redken big blow out gel. Using my Revlon styling brush I styled my hair. It came out shiny and smooth. So pretty. I look forward to following your tutorial on using a curling iron. Thanks again!!
Great advice for my fine hair. I just started your method of washing my hair twice. I never knew that in all of my 55 years. I have purchased so many products over my lifetime. In the end the simple path is the easiest.
Most afro textured hair is actually fine to medium contrary to what we've been told. It's not coarse. It doesn't behave in the same manner as say Caucasian fine hair as far as greasy and flat because it doesn't grow down but up and out. So oils can't easily coat the strands. Afro hair should be treated as fine hair with some tweaks. I would also argue that many with afro textured hair should actually be washing their scalps more often since the sebum can't travel down and all of it sits on the scalp. It is indeed a truly unique hair texture.❤
I would love it if you could talk about how to take care of hair for older women. My fine hair never gets greasy, even if I go 3 days without washing it. Also how to take care of gray hair. And hair with some natural wave or curl.
I literally have every texture on my head. Fine near my face and coarse near my crown. It’s always oily and dry at the same time 😫 I know I’m not the only one
Mind blown. 😂 I have been doing all the things you recommended for a long time, with ONE exception. I was always afraid to brush through my wet hair. Well, I brushed the leave in conditioner through to my ends today and VOILA! My hair hasn't been this smooth and soft in a very long time! It seems like a silly thing, but it made all the difference. Thank you!
When you find that hair soul mate, you KNOW. When I took the quiz, I thought my hair was medium. Bought the Redken, did the routine, and scalp was itchy and hair frizzy with flyaways. Too dry. Ok. So then I tried the coarse hair routine. From the very first day, it made a HUGE difference! My hair stayed clean for 5 days, did do dry shampoo 6th day, washed again on 8th day. No problems! And for the first time ever, my overnight curls held all week, just becoming softer waves by the last day, but still was there. Not flat, lifeless, and boring at all. After the second wash day with the coarse hair routine, my husband said, "Did you get a haircut? Your ends look really even." Nope. Haven't had a cut. Just found the right routine for my hair. So if you try one routine and it doesn't seem right for you, try another. That might make all the difference in the world.
@@ume_mochi2515Yeah… Thats my thing. It’s possible you might be able to find smaller bottles for the products elsewhere online? I haven’t personally looked but I have seen the prices for the products he recommends and holy heck that’s a lot for a college student to be spending on her hair. :|| Still want to try and almost certain I have thin hair though so I probably will.
I have medium hair but I had a feeling I must try the coarse hair routine. just bought the Moroccanoil products but instead of a thick oil I got the Olaplex No 7. kinda nervous to know if I just wasted 40 bucks or if it benefits my hair
This is so much easier to understand then the 2A, 3C etc…I still don’t think I could peg my hair type based on those diagrams…every haircut I’ve ever had I’ve been told it’s like cutting 2 different heads of hair, mine is straight on the top and underneath it is incredibly wavy..if I do nothing with it I end up with perfect beach waves.
Can you do a video for afro hair - thick kinky frizzy hair? I love your vids and have learned so much! I would love to hear more about how to care for my hair and the products you found best for that hair type. Thanks!
You’re going to have to do a video on people who work out and sweat…..in which case, one would have to wash their hair daily. Also, I am a masters competitive swimmer, which means I swim every day. Which further means my hair gets wait daily regardless if I sweat on the gym floor or train during my daily swims. My hair is what you define as course. Any suggestions?
Hey! Well first off - chlorine really damages hair! Soaking your hair in normal water before taking a splash in the pool can help! (Some girls even go so far as to put conditioner on before- but I’m not going to do that). When I swam daily I also would wear a swim cap- a good one won’t let the water hit the majority of your hair- just the hair around the edges. That really helped me, I have a lot of hair so I had to get a special long hair swim cap for it to work/not fall off. Simply rinse your hair with water and reapply leave in conditioner/hair oil once you’re done rinsing off. Your skin will need to be cleaned but your scalp won’t- just a rinse- especially with course hair. When I had 3a-b hair I’d conditioner to help detangle my hair- and it also kept it moisturized, but I still only shampood once - sometimes twice - a week. This was when I was on my high school swim team- so I was swimming almost daily too. As for running (or any dry sport), i used to just…I know…use a shower cap and not get my hair wet when I rinsed off. But now, with long 2c I now use protective hair styles when I get sweaty instead of just a ponytail. Braids, tight buns, tight hair styles. It helps prevent the sweat from getting into all of the hair. I even just rinse off with the protective hairstyle since some barely let water in! (And it rinses the outer strands that did get sweat on them). Buns are the best though since it keeps the hair off sweat necks and backs. But for helmet sorts (like biking) I use braids!
You must wash your hair w Redken cleansing cream. A detox shampoo removes chlorine , debris, any other impurities from whatever get stuck in your strands.
I work out every day as well and sweat and need to wash my hair daily. People say don’t wash everyday but my hair gets sweaty and disgusting. I never know what to do
@@jackieandraos624 avoiding shampoo is the key. As I mentioned in my long reply when I had very curly hair- I’d just rinse off with water and apply conditioner. Curly hair doesn’t need as much washing and needs more conditioner/moisture. For straight hair-and even with a protective hair style you want to rinse off- just get the hair wet. Maybe use a light leave in conditioner while your hair is damp after.
I followed how to remove brassy hair for brunettes and bought all the productss. I will not turn back! the products really made a difference and now im a fan!
You may not see this comment, but I just wanted to give a huge shout our and say THANK YOU for all your videos. They are no nonsense and straight to the point. You have helped me immensely with my hair care. My mother never taught me how to care for my hair. I feel so confident caring for my hair now and also confident teaching my daughter how to care for hers
AND.... here we go again. Chris! You have helped me and together we've helped my sister! THANK YOU so much. I don't know WHAT kind of mess I'd be in without you. I have a wonderful woman who cuts my hair and styles it for me. Then, I go home and try to do it the same way. Never works. Until I found your videos. I truly appreciate that. However, could you PLEASE do a short and medium video? My sis is short and I'm the medium. Her hair is thin and I'd say kind of fine right now. Mine WAS thick, it's now medium but growing back in, so I've still got a lot of short hairs mixed in there. I lost about half of mine after that open heart surgery and it's coming back now. Sis always had thick hair, but after a major (many hours of anesthetic) back surgery... she lost a lot. We have found that the stress and long times with anesthesia is probably the problem. Doctors will deny it, but if you Google "hair loss after open heart surgery", it happens a lot! It really messes up ANY and EVERY thing we've tried, until you and your videos! Thank you so much, you ARE the best!
I love this video! It’s so helpful. My question is…while I have fine hair I also have curly hair, curl 3a. What products should I be using with fine, curly hair?
I got fine hair and I used to wash my hair every 2 days. Today I washed my hair for the first time after 5.5 days following up your advice and I am soo impressed! I changed my shampoo and routine like you said and I even did my own DIY leave in conditioner. My hair is so bouncy and shinny, I am over the moon! Thank you
I love your advice and am trying your recommendations for fine hair in a few days. What happens with my hair is that it curls into spiral curls when it air dries. I'd love to have clean hair for longer and have the curls, so I got a hairdryer with a diffuser. I ordered blowout cream for fine hair, too. I was wondering if you could do some videos for natural curls. They straiten easily with a regular blowdry. Thank you for reading my comment. You do great work for us, and it's much appreciated!!!
I'm not sure which type I have. I no I need moisture and I color my greys every so often but it's my ends that are so fine and need to look thicker and healthier. It's different everywhere else it's thicker but ends just so fine and stringy. When I get it done from my stylist I can go 4 or 5 days without washing it but usually I do every 3 or 4. I have a Shark Flexstyle and use Pureology shampoo and conditioner it's a blue bottle. But I need other good products to tame frizz and look smoother and straight. If I style it good enough with Flex I can go without flat ironing but I usually flat iron a little after. Someone on Amazon talked about this page when I was reading reviews on Olaplex. I have some Chi straight guard now it's ok. I will watch the healthier hair video next.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 he knows what he is talking about! My hairstylist is a very old Mexican guy without hair.. but he is the best he recommends me the olaplex and and redkend he is the best
You are amazing! Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I have watched so many of your videos trying to learn! You have transformed my hair and I love that you are a product minimalist!!!
This is awesome advice. All this time I thought I had fine hair and no matter what I did or product I used it still didn't improve and I've been wrong all this time. Thanks Chris!
Please give tips for swimmers. I am a swimmer with curly hair and I swim every day in chlorinated water, and I have to wash it every day. My hair is dry and I want to grow it out. Please give tips and product recs!!
The fine hair description used to fit my hair perfectly. I had to wash every 3-4 days. But now that I'm in my late 60's with menopause behind me. I only wash once a week & have gone even longer when traveling. About day 6, the hair on top of my head starts to feel oily although it still looks OK. I'm looking forward to trying your method.
I have multiple textures. Curly underneath and frizzy, weak and wavy on top. Three different natural colors....dull, faded blonde on top where all the red pigment is gone, lighter red behind my ears in the back and white around my hairline. Lots of breakage and hair loss on my crown from hard water, dryness and age. New growth is white and much finer than what is still red. My hair has never been oily even after 3 or 4 days, but it does get flat at the roots and smells musty. The thought of not washing my hair for a week is gross! Thank god for cleansing conditioner.
Consider getting a water filter/washing with distilled water. Comb your hair (not brush) when it’s damp/wet and with a WIDE tooth comb, use leave-in conditioner - Maui moisture should be suitable for your hair texture and a light oil, maybe vitamin E (only on the ends and maybe mid-lengths). Sleep on silk/satin pillowcases, this should help if you’re not following these tips already.
I have fine thin AND coarse ribbon shaped hair which gets never greasy, but I need to wash it every other day because it is flat and thin looking even at day 1 after wash. Its bleached platinum and hips lenght. I do not have splitt ends or breakage but brushing is impossible, only when my hair is dripping wet. I blow dry it always to shape curls, otherwise it would be only frizzy and thin looking
I wasn't sure if I had medium or coarse hair (I have lots of volume, but also had oily hair), so I bought the products for fine/medium hair you recommended. They were a big improvement over the oxg products I was using, and I was able to a week without washing with some dry shampoo sprinkled in once during the week. But while oily hair was no longer a problem, dryness and frizz still remained. I used a hair mask which made a huge improvement instantly, so I decided to try the products for coarse hair. Another big improvement. The moccorian oil fixes my dry ends but doesn't weigh my hair down despite using a generous amount each morning. The frizz dimiss also reduced frizz significantly (and using an invis-bobble at night probably doesn't hurt)
I also have medium hair with tons of volume but an oily hair problem. I just bought the recommended products for coarse hair (the Moroccanoil shampoo and conditioner). I hope it works the same for me, as all other shampoos and conditioners always make my hair dry... would you say the hair mask is still beneficial for you?
@@MultiKingfull Dry hair hasn't been a problem since. I also use the Moroccan oil hair conditioner when I don't have time for a hair mask and it works well too. I'm still not 100% happy with my ends, but that's more to do with my natural hair pattern. It goes into an S shaped wave so the ends curl up near the bottom. I've gotten better at blow drying which has reduced it significantly, and it does get easier to mange as my hair gets longer. I'm sure straighteners would fix it completely, but I'm going to let it grow out a little bit more before trying that (10 inches atm).
This doesn't really work for me because I have tightly coiled afro hair. My strands are medium, but I have high density. I don't have to worry about my scalp getting to oily when my hair is in its natural state. Products don't tend to weigh down my hair. I can use a ton of product and my coils will still bounce all over the place.
This advice isn't for Afro textured hair. It's for European or Asian hair. Our hair structure is completely different and we need more emollients, moisture, and more product.
I have not ever heard you address AGED HAIR! Yes. Women who are over 50 or 60 yrs. of age. We have unique problems such as thinning hair due to age and non-existent hormones. Do you even work with older women? I am 76 yrs. old (told I look much younger, as I am vegan and walk 10,000 steps every morning), have been blond all my life - natural for the better part of it, but enhanced with color products. (I'm obstinately blond😅) My hair has always been one of my best features. Now, it is thin, dry and will not hold a style. I have been told by several stylists that my hair is coarse. It never gets oily. I also moved to the beach 5 yrs. ago where the heat and humidity are ALWAYS high. I need a hair plan for me, with products that are vegan and not tested on animals. (Redken does not qualify!) ARE YOU UP FOR THE CHALLENGE!!?? 😊
Im so annoyed with hair stylists saying to only wash your hair every third day. I have fine hair and its oily by the end of the first day. Its really gross to wash my hair that infrequently. Do people eally walk around with oily hair every day?
I have fine textured curly hair (like my German mom's hair - but curled). I can't use olive oil or almond oil, even in small amounts, because they weigh my curls down, but coconut oil or grapeseed oil are fine. I'm sharing this for people who don't have any experience with curly hair so that they know not all curls are coarse. My hair definitely isn't. If I feel coarseness I'll check for split ends- and if it's coarse then ill find a lot and know it's time for a trim. Split ends can't be repaired and they make your curls look terrible and seem like they cause them to get tabgled more easily.
I think we must have similar genetics! I have German heritage on both sides and have fine wavy/curly hair as well. Thanks for sharing, I think I will give grape seed oil a try!
I watched it to see my hair type according to him, but I don't understand why he put a not straight hair image in the coarse hair... Can not coarse hair be straight too? And curly, 3b, 4 hair be fine or medium? Mine is curly, 3b/ 3c, but its VERY fine, a hairddreasser said it looks like baby hair. I'm from Brasil, I was always saw the hair types being divided as straight, curly and kinky, or something like that... I don't know... for this video, mine hair Iwould be fine but it doesn't stick to head, and it's so easily stick to head. It has volume, so maybe we are a mixture of them, and not only everyone is only one thing??
I love your videos I’ve been watching you for a couple weeks. I have fine and curly hair. My hair takes along time to grow. My front hair is also take long to grow. Any recommendations? I would appreciate it. Thank you for your educational videos on Jaír🙏
I know he works with mostly or only white people hair when he said fine hair lacks texture. You can definitely have fine hair and even coily/nappy hair. Watching more, I think he's using these terms very loosely. Fine, medium, coarse = the thickness of each individual hair strands. Nothing to do with curls or volume
This is helpful. I def have medium hair and my daughter has coarse hair. Her hair can go get way longer without having to retouch. Getting these 2 products for blow dry preps
Great videos! I'm a guy with a full head of medium length coarse hair, that has little to no idea how to maintain it. I do construction-type work in a hot/dry Texas climate, and I've stopped washing my hair everyday after seeing your videos. However, I perspire a lot when I'm doing this type of work. Based on your recommendation, I recently purchased Redken's Har Cleansing Cream, and would like to know what shampoo and conditioner you suggest, and how often to use them in these extreme circumstances (rinsing daily, etc.?) Keep up the great work. Thanks!
My hair has multiple personalities. Parts are wavy, curly and a patch of very frizzy hair growing out of the crown. I have tried almost every product known to man and nothing helps with the frizzy except a hot tool.
You're amazing. .. I used your hair washing method in which you mainly put your focus on the scalp , it really helped my hair look silkier and my ends were not dry like usual thank you
oh. I didn’t realize that I have coarse hair. Thanks. I’ve noticed that it’s thick (I say that it looks like afghan hound ears if I try to wear a headband because I have so much hair). Since becoming chronically ill and finding daily hair washing to be more challenging, I’ve been surprised by how long I can go without washing my hair before it looks bad. Now it makes sense. Thanks.
Hi Chris, can you extend shipping to Australia 🇦🇺 please! You have lots of fans down under, I tell everyone about you. I have the best hair of my life now because of your help & advise! Thankyou ❤🎉😊
Hello @Chris, I'm from the country Bangladesh, in Asia. I'm 30 and a mother of two, and have got textured hair. I've got very dry hair, with thin strand which becomes puffy after drying. My hair roots are wavy but gets curly at the end side. It becomes very difficult to manage my hair as they are exyremely tangled prone..😢
So after watching this video I realised that my 4c hair doesn’t fit into any of these categories. It doesn’t get greasy because it’s Afro hair, it doesn’t stay flat to my head because it’s Afro hair, it has volume not because it’s course but because it’s Afro hair. It’s as if Afro hair doesn’t exist based on this video or any other video I’ve seen on this channel. Afro hair can be fine, yet not need to be washed often because it doesn’t ever get greasy. Would be great if maybe he’d do just one video to acknowledge the coiliest of hair does exist.
I honestly don’t know about my hair. Seems to be fine strands, but lots of it. Naturally curly and VERY prone to frizz in humidity. I have no idea what products to use. Gets weighed down very easily. Feels super dry and not shiny. I’m willing to try anything…just don’t seem to fit neatly into one of these categories. 😢
Hi. Based on your description, I would have medium hair. I always thought it was fine hair. I can’t make curls stay and get it to have volume, even when it’s long, it doesn’t look that long, my bottom strands somehow gather together leaving space in between them. Also, I do think I have an allergy when it comes certain ingredients from shampoos, most of them give me an itchy scalp and sometimes even sores. The only one that helps my scalp out currently, is Maria Nila but it doesn’t offer me too much volume. I wish to have volume but also a healthy scalp and maybe longer hair.
@@susanneandersen3417 I use the Heal series, because it was the first one to come into my hand that was gentle to my scalp and I didn’t want to risk wasting more money on anything else. I was thinking on trying the Volume series from them though
You are an amazing educator!!! I worked in my family's salon as a nail tech and assistant, and I learned how to do a professional shampoo. My hair used to be medium, shiny and healthy. However, now I have short, coarse, dry, color treated menopausal hair, so, I wash once a week using the Moroccan Oil products. My question: Is there anything I can do besides keratin treatments to restore the health of my hair.
I hope he takes master classes for curly and coily hair. There are so many great tips but it's a whole different ballgame with curls and coils. If you disagree you have straight hair and/or have no experience or education with it.
This video is good but it’s simple. Everything is based on how old you are because hair ages. I always had fine hair, but it was very dense and now that I’m in my 60s it has thinned and it is very frizzy when the weather is damp. It’ll be flatter on the roots if I don’t use a volumizer, but if I do it on the ends, it frizzes out and looks damaged. Your videos are very good for people that are younger.
Texture does NOT de facto mean coarse!! I have baby fine high porosity 3b-3c curly hair that is as oily as it is dry, fragile, and sensitive, and it starts getting and feeling greasy at day 2 after washing, despite being SUPER frizzy due to how high it’s porosity is. A coarse hair strand is one that is thick and wide and big, regardless of the amount of texture and porosity that the hair has, and can naturally take a large amount of heat before burning, unlike my hair which is so fine that it burns even from the sun!
Your videos are very helpful and I enjoy watching them! You have helped so many people and I am one of them. But have you ever considered to suggest any cruelty free products?
I love your videos. Yes I have very fine hair. I wash only twice a week, and I have been putting hair oil and leave in conditioner. I barely use electrical supplies too. My habit is cutting it too often. I'm learning not to. Thanks for the tips.
This was very helpful, thank you! I have fine hair and I work out frequently. I hate the idea of going to bed with a sweaty, dirty head. Typically I'll just rinse my hair (no shampoo) in the shower, blow dry it till it's dry and then go to bed. What is the best way to go 4 days between washes while also not going to bed with a post workout head of hair? Thanks! Looking forward to trying new products and methods 😁
Ok, I have a question I'm hoping you or someone here can help me with. My hair is extremely curly and I used to think it was thick as a child because it was so curly, but it's actually really thin. I would have thought that would be categorized as "fine" hair, but it's actually really dry and doesn't get oily for a long time. Would that be considered "coarse" even though it's not thick?
Discovered your channel this week. Have learned a ton! I have a lot of hair! However, I have a section hair in the front of my scalp that has stopped growing in. Is there really a product that promotes hair growth as we get older on certain spots of the scalp?
So i got the redken volume injection shampoo and conditioner, tried it out yesterday and it left my hair feeling like straw 😞 I was really bummed cuz it's not cheap. I had to deep condition to get a bit of moisture back. I'll stick to the extreme strengthening, it leaves my hair so soft and improves the condition.
I also wanted to try it per his recomendation but when I saw that it contained alcohol denat I hesitated. Fine hair is sensitive and prone to breakage as it is so I don't understand why someone would recommend a product like that. But I'm not a hair stylist so maybe I'm missing something :)
Hi Chris, loving your videos. So informative very helpful. I think I have fine hair because, it can be styled then you run a brush through it, goes flat!! My scalp however I believe I could go 2 months and my wouldn't be oily??
Hi Chris! Can you make a video about porosity? It's another hair type I've heard and that a lot of products we use must be according to our hair porosity
I have coarse hair, wavy-to-straight and my solution to the excess of hair was cutting a fringe 😂Now I don't need to go to the hair salon every three months just to be stripped of all of the excess of hair with thinning scissors. Also my hair was always dry and frizzy until I discovered serums & oils at the beginning of 2021 and now I have the smoothest hair ever 😍
I feel like maybe the word “coarse” is a turn off, but coarse doesn’t mean “bad” or “ugly” i think course just refers to the shape of it. Fine - it lays flat. Medium - there’s some wave and most of it doesn’t lay flat. Coarse - it can be wavy or curly - and it doesn’t lay flat against the head. Some of my hair is fine - the stuff on the top. Some of it is medium. Some of it is super curly which I take to mean - coarse. I simply put more of the recommended products on the coarse parts and less on the fine bits parts. It seems to be working.
I don't think its so simple I have fine hair but I have a tonne of hair strands. So I have thick hair but fine hair at the same time. I could never use volume shampoo and conditioners it would be a total disaster my hair would be so dry.
I have thin, fine, white hair. I have all the products you’ve recommended and I’m in heaven. Just one teeny weeny problem. When I step outside my hair is blown like a dead dandelion! Hair spray doesn’t get it. Help!
Hi Chris Could you please help me? I always thought I had fine hair, because it is thin, breaks easily and is damaged. But it is never greasy, I could go for 10 days without washing it. Which hair type could that be?
My coarse hair generally matches most of your description but because it's stick straight it has NO volume at all and sticks to my head and looks flat and lifeless and like I have no hair at all. It feels rough and coarse and wiry but it looks smooth and silky (until you touch it!) and it's tough and resistant and won't hold a curl at all, in fact it's impossible to change its natural shape in any way, for example I can't change the part either, or put it up in a ponytail because it's so heavy it just falls back down. The rest is true, it's very heavy so it's not easy to weigh down, and as far as the hair is concerned I can go a week without washing it and it doesn't get greasy. But I need to wash it every other day because if I don't I get huge patches of dandruff.
Ok so I bought the Redken group - injection shampoo and conditioner, brushable hairspray and heat protectant. I washed twice and both times the bubbles were the same unlike the descriptions here. I have never used salon products on my long hair and so this was a huge deal and splurge. My hair looks exactly the same as it always has and nothing about these four Redken products did anything different for me.
Please we need more natural curly hair tips
I feel the same. I’m ready to take a trip to Florida for him to help me 😢
@@powdagirl6239 Try Curlsmith products!!! They are amazing. If you use them properly, they work great. It is my go to when I want to wear my natural curls. I literally have used/tried every single one of them when I want to wear my natural curls.
Me too .I love my 3C hair but stress damaged it.
I've requested this a few times
Please do a video exclusively for fine curly hair. Loved the brush cleaning video! Total game changer!
Yes, I would love that as well! Mine is super fine, wavy on top and in front and curly underneath.
I am a black woman with coarse, shoulder-blade length curly hair that I have been wearing, blown out, and sometimes straightened. I got all the products you recommended for my hair type, and I have to say, I love them. I went 10 days before washing my hair. This time I decided to blow it out, then use my curling wand (It took a while), and then hairspray to keep the curls. Day three, and I still have the curls. All the products you have suggested work brilliantly in my hair. I am so glad I found your channel! Thank you.
Which one did you use?
@@carolynlevy3786 Redken hair cleansing cream on scalp, rinse and then small amount of Moroccanoil moisture repair shampoo. Moroccanoil moisture repair conditioner or Moroccanoil intense hydrating mask, depending on how my hair felt or needed that week.
Pureology color fanatic leave in conditioner spray {LOvE THIS}
A little bit of olaplex 6 and Redken frizz dismiss rebel tame cream mixed together and applied to hair combed through and blow-dry. And finally Redken thermal spray if you plan on curling or flat ironing. Lightly spray it on top and underside of hair, and brush until you can't feel it then use heat. 😁This is what I do.
@@kellyhaskell3764 thank you for sharing
@@carolynlevy3786 oh and a very very small amount of Moroccanoil treatment on the ends
Thank you for sharing!
I'm a triathlete. That means a lot of sweat and chlorine or salt water.. I'd love to see a video on how to properly care for my fine hair under these conditions.
Me too! I am NOT a triathlete but I am increasing my physical activity as an obese young lady in Texas and that means I’m sweating quite a bit throughout the day everyday
Your hair washing method has definitely helped me. Last week, I was feeling lazy and did a single wash in my old way. On day 2 my hair was greasy, wet looking and flat to my head. Using your method, I usually get that on day 4!
That's amazing! Big difference between every 2 days and every 4 days :)
What is the method? Applying shampoo twice? One to remove grease the other to feel it gone?
Hi there I am currently using champo pitta growth serum, champo balancing shampoo and conditioner and styling cream. I have thick fine hair. Is it worth it using growth serum?
So many hairdressers have told me that I have fine hair but from what you say it’s medium. And that makes so much sense because my hair weighs down so quickly. You’re a star, thank you!
I have curly hair that is fine too so it gets dirty faster. Especially after a blowout… just because you have curly hair doesn’t mean it’s coarse.
Exactly. I hate it when people say all curly hair is coarse.
Interesting feedback. I have coily Afro-textured hair that is fine in diameter and medium in density, but which is also soft, and is prone to frizz. There is nothing coarse about it. Just because hair has a texture doesn't mean it is coarse. I need to carefully monitor moisture levels for both my hair and my scalp. I couldn't maintain my hair with just three products. In fact, I currently use six products on a regular basis, and two once a month. I do use professional products, and have for over 30 years. They do in fact make a huge difference in the feel and appearance of both hair and scalp. It would be instructive to hear the Blowout Professor speak on his knowledge and experience with Afro-textured hair, and how his tips, strategies and recommendations apply.
Afro texture hair is just hair. Most important thing IMO is porosity and if it's fine or coarse
I have Afro hair and his healthy hair routine works so well for my hair. I used to be a product junkie and put everything from soup to nuts to moisturize my hair. I hated wash day. Now I love to wash my hair, 3 products, well 4, because I flat iron so I use a heat protectant. But my hair is the best it’s been in a very long time.
@@piapenny Thank you for your reply. I have recently begun to follow tight curl stylists who advocate for a "less is more" approach when it comes to products. Just three high-quality products. I am glad your hair is thriving.
@@missprofe you’re welcome ☺️. I agree with the stylist. Highest quality you can fit in your budget and less is more. Happy hair journey to you!
I agree would like to hear your comments on afro textured hair please Chris 🙏
Just by applying the hair oil and leave in conditoioner CORRECTLY as you advised in one of your videos - I could see a drastic improvement in frizzyness. 🤩I am so grateful and still in shock that my processed and very long hair could ever be looking so good again! 😲Thank you so much Chris. 🙌🏻✨Would you be able to do a video on how often to apply oil and leave in, as well as demonstrate on someone happy to voluteer as to how to apply it for visual learners, please? Thank you so much again from a very happy medium hair subscriber. 😊🦋✨
Hi can you tell me which video it was?
@@darkmeetslyte_2102 it was this one - ruclips.net/video/Z6a1gYOrW8M/видео.html. Hope it helps you as much as it is helping me! 😊
I'm from Croatia and I was shocked to see the map of Croatia. Thank you for making these videos :>
Can you do a video on the care of gray hair. Thank you. Love your videos
Do you wash grey hair with purple shampoo once a week or would you recommend something else
@@carmencox6700i washed my grey hair with purple shampoo and it turned into blonde hair for absolutely no reason, no one can explain why it happened but now my hair is blonde
As a new stylist I love learning new things and this was very helpful understand different hair types and what to do! Also that trick about only rinsing your hair out in-between washes when swimming and going in the ocean have made a vast difference if some of my clients hair and even my own I love learning all these new tips and tricks! 🙂
I need to thank you for putting this advice on RUclips. I just recently found your channel and after watching your videos, I purchased products specifically for my hair. I stopped coloring my hair a few years ago so I have salt and pepper hair. More pepper than salt. I have fine hair and a lot of it. I began using purple shampoo because of my grey hair. Today, I used the Redken volumizing shampoo followed by the Pureology leave in conditioner then the Redken big blow out gel. Using my Revlon styling brush I styled my hair. It came out shiny and smooth. So pretty. I look forward to following your tutorial on using a curling iron. Thanks again!!
Great advice for my fine hair. I just started your method of washing my hair twice. I never knew that in all of my 55 years. I have purchased so many products over my lifetime. In the end the simple path is the easiest.
I’m definitely a medium hair girl. I can go quite a while before it gets greasy, but products really weigh it down.
Afro textured hair is unique. When my hair is straight it is limp and greasy. When it’s curly it’s not. My strands are fine as well
Most afro textured hair is actually fine to medium contrary to what we've been told. It's not coarse. It doesn't behave in the same manner as say Caucasian fine hair as far as greasy and flat because it doesn't grow down but up and out. So oils can't easily coat the strands. Afro hair should be treated as fine hair with some tweaks. I would also argue that many with afro textured hair should actually be washing their scalps more often since the sebum can't travel down and all of it sits on the scalp. It is indeed a truly unique hair texture.❤
I would love it if you could talk about how to take care of hair for older women. My fine hair never gets greasy, even if I go 3 days without washing it. Also how to take care of gray hair. And hair with some natural wave or curl.
Love how they've put Croatian map in video... Grettings from Croatia sending much love❤
I literally have every texture on my head. Fine near my face and coarse near my crown. It’s always oily and dry at the same time 😫 I know I’m not the only one
Same!!
My hair has it's own agenda lol
Mind blown. 😂 I have been doing all the things you recommended for a long time, with ONE exception. I was always afraid to brush through my wet hair. Well, I brushed the leave in conditioner through to my ends today and VOILA! My hair hasn't been this smooth and soft in a very long time! It seems like a silly thing, but it made all the difference. Thank you!
When you find that hair soul mate, you KNOW. When I took the quiz, I thought my hair was medium. Bought the Redken, did the routine, and scalp was itchy and hair frizzy with flyaways. Too dry. Ok. So then I tried the coarse hair routine. From the very first day, it made a HUGE difference! My hair stayed clean for 5 days, did do dry shampoo 6th day, washed again on 8th day. No problems! And for the first time ever, my overnight curls held all week, just becoming softer waves by the last day, but still was there. Not flat, lifeless, and boring at all. After the second wash day with the coarse hair routine, my husband said, "Did you get a haircut? Your ends look really even." Nope. Haven't had a cut. Just found the right routine for my hair.
So if you try one routine and it doesn't seem right for you, try another. That might make all the difference in the world.
But it's so expensive...😔
Which shampoo did you use from the coarse hair routine ?
@@ume_mochi2515Yeah… Thats my thing. It’s possible you might be able to find smaller bottles for the products elsewhere online? I haven’t personally looked but I have seen the prices for the products he recommends and holy heck that’s a lot for a college student to be spending on her hair. :|| Still want to try and almost certain I have thin hair though so I probably will.
I have medium hair but I had a feeling I must try the coarse hair routine. just bought the Moroccanoil products but instead of a thick oil I got the Olaplex No 7. kinda nervous to know if I just wasted 40 bucks or if it benefits my hair
This is so much easier to understand then the 2A, 3C etc…I still don’t think I could peg my hair type based on those diagrams…every haircut I’ve ever had I’ve been told it’s like cutting 2 different heads of hair, mine is straight on the top and underneath it is incredibly wavy..if I do nothing with it I end up with perfect beach waves.
The number letter system is to indicate your texture not the type of hair. Type and Texture often gets confused
@@karlitop7497This is correct.
Can you do a video for afro hair - thick kinky frizzy hair? I love your vids and have learned so much! I would love to hear more about how to care for my hair and the products you found best for that hair type. Thanks!
Same here! And it's grey which means it's wirey.
You’re going to have to do a video on people who work out and sweat…..in which case, one would have to wash their hair daily.
Also,
I am a masters competitive swimmer, which means I swim every day. Which further means my hair gets wait daily regardless if I sweat on the gym floor or train during my daily swims.
My hair is what you define as course. Any suggestions?
Omg yes, this one pls!! Commenting to get an update!! :)
Hey! Well first off - chlorine really damages hair! Soaking your hair in normal water before taking a splash in the pool can help! (Some girls even go so far as to put conditioner on before- but I’m not going to do that).
When I swam daily I also would wear a swim cap- a good one won’t let the water hit the majority of your hair- just the hair around the edges. That really helped me, I have a lot of hair so I had to get a special long hair swim cap for it to work/not fall off.
Simply rinse your hair with water and reapply leave in conditioner/hair oil once you’re done rinsing off. Your skin will need to be cleaned but your scalp won’t- just a rinse- especially with course hair. When I had 3a-b hair I’d conditioner to help detangle my hair- and it also kept it moisturized, but I still only shampood once - sometimes twice - a week. This was when I was on my high school swim team- so I was swimming almost daily too.
As for running (or any dry sport), i used to just…I know…use a shower cap and not get my hair wet when I rinsed off. But now, with long 2c I now use protective hair styles when I get sweaty instead of just a ponytail. Braids, tight buns, tight hair styles. It helps prevent the sweat from getting into all of the hair. I even just rinse off with the protective hairstyle since some barely let water in! (And it rinses the outer strands that did get sweat on them). Buns are the best though since it keeps the hair off sweat necks and backs. But for helmet sorts (like biking) I use braids!
You must wash your hair w Redken cleansing cream. A detox shampoo removes chlorine , debris, any other impurities from whatever get stuck in your strands.
I work out every day as well and sweat and need to wash my hair daily. People say don’t wash everyday but my hair gets sweaty and disgusting. I never know what to do
@@jackieandraos624 avoiding shampoo is the key. As I mentioned in my long reply when I had very curly hair- I’d just rinse off with water and apply conditioner. Curly hair doesn’t need as much washing and needs more conditioner/moisture. For straight hair-and even with a protective hair style you want to rinse off- just get the hair wet. Maybe use a light leave in conditioner while your hair is damp after.
I followed how to remove brassy hair for brunettes and bought all the productss. I will not turn back! the products really made a difference and now im a fan!
You may not see this comment, but I just wanted to give a huge shout our and say THANK YOU for all your videos. They are no nonsense and straight to the point. You have helped me immensely with my hair care. My mother never taught me how to care for my hair. I feel so confident caring for my hair now and also confident teaching my daughter how to care for hers
AND.... here we go again. Chris! You have helped me and together we've helped my sister! THANK YOU so much. I don't know WHAT kind of mess I'd be in without you. I have a wonderful woman who cuts my hair and styles it for me. Then, I go home and try to do it the same way. Never works. Until I found your videos. I truly appreciate that. However, could you PLEASE do a short and medium video? My sis is short and I'm the medium. Her hair is thin and I'd say kind of fine right now. Mine WAS thick, it's now medium but growing back in, so I've still got a lot of short hairs mixed in there. I lost about half of mine after that open heart surgery and it's coming back now. Sis always had thick hair, but after a major (many hours of anesthetic) back surgery... she lost a lot. We have found that the stress and long times with anesthesia is probably the problem. Doctors will deny it, but if you Google "hair loss after open heart surgery", it happens a lot! It really messes up ANY and EVERY thing we've tried, until you and your videos! Thank you so much, you ARE the best!
I love this video! It’s so helpful. My question is…while I have fine hair I also have curly hair, curl 3a. What products should I be using with fine, curly hair?
I got fine hair and I used to wash my hair every 2 days. Today I washed my hair for the first time after 5.5 days following up your advice and I am soo impressed! I changed my shampoo and routine like you said and I even did my own DIY leave in conditioner. My hair is so bouncy and shinny, I am over the moon! Thank you
What DIY leave in conditioner is that?Can you pls share??
Thank you so much for breaking this down into simple, easy to understand terms. -I love your videos, and you are a very good teacher. 😊
I love your advice and am trying your recommendations for fine hair in a few days. What happens with my hair is that it curls into spiral curls when it air dries. I'd love to have clean hair for longer and have the curls, so I got a hairdryer with a diffuser. I ordered blowout cream for fine hair, too. I was wondering if you could do some videos for natural curls. They straiten easily with a regular blowdry. Thank you for reading my comment. You do great work for us, and it's much appreciated!!!
I sure wish he would do some videos on naturally curly hair too! I could not find any.😢
Did anyone reply to you?
I've been using everything on your list for fine hair, and this hair transformation has made me feel so confident and sassy. Thank you!! ❤😊
I'm not sure which type I have. I no I need moisture and I color my greys every so often but it's my ends that are so fine and need to look thicker and healthier. It's different everywhere else it's thicker but ends just so fine and stringy. When I get it done from my stylist I can go 4 or 5 days without washing it but usually I do every 3 or 4. I have a Shark Flexstyle and use Pureology shampoo and conditioner it's a blue bottle. But I need other good products to tame frizz and look smoother and straight. If I style it good enough with Flex I can go without flat ironing but I usually flat iron a little after. Someone on Amazon talked about this page when I was reading reviews on Olaplex. I have some Chi straight guard now it's ok. I will watch the healthier hair video next.
Hi, would you recommend the same products for someone who has medium wavy hair and wants to wear it naturally wavy instead of blow drying it straight?
Crazy how I take advice from a guy with no hair🤷♀️
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 he knows what he is talking about! My hairstylist is a very old Mexican guy without hair.. but he is the best he recommends me the olaplex and and redkend he is the best
It means he doesn’t have a bias 🤣
𝑨𝒉𝒆𝒎
Roflol…my very first video I watched I said, “but he has no hair, how would he know?” 😂😂😂😂
That'd not that nice. He is amazing at his job
You are amazing! Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I have watched so many of your videos trying to learn! You have transformed my hair and I love that you are a product minimalist!!!
This is awesome advice. All this time I thought I had fine hair and no matter what I did or product I used it still didn't improve and I've been wrong all this time. Thanks Chris!
Please give tips for swimmers. I am a swimmer with curly hair and I swim every day in chlorinated water, and I have to wash it every day. My hair is dry and I want to grow it out. Please give tips and product recs!!
I have medium hair and I can go a week without washing my hair and it smells amazing
You showed the map of Croatia! My country. It blowed 😉 my mind
I am also Croatian! Such a beautiful place 🤩
The fine hair description used to fit my hair perfectly. I had to wash every 3-4 days. But now that I'm in my late 60's with menopause behind me. I only wash once a week & have gone even longer when traveling. About day 6, the hair on top of my head starts to feel oily although it still looks OK. I'm looking forward to trying your method.
My hair is frizzy wavy. No matter what product I use it doesn't matter unless I blow it out..
I really don't wanna blow it out after every wash
I have multiple textures. Curly underneath and frizzy, weak and wavy on top. Three different natural colors....dull, faded blonde on top where all the red pigment is gone, lighter red behind my ears in the back and white around my hairline. Lots of breakage and hair loss on my crown from hard water, dryness and age. New growth is white and much finer than what is still red. My hair has never been oily even after 3 or 4 days, but it does get flat at the roots and smells musty. The thought of not washing my hair for a week is gross! Thank god for cleansing conditioner.
Consider getting a water filter/washing with distilled water. Comb your hair (not brush) when it’s damp/wet and with a WIDE tooth comb, use leave-in conditioner - Maui moisture should be suitable for your hair texture and a light oil, maybe vitamin E (only on the ends and maybe mid-lengths).
Sleep on silk/satin pillowcases, this should help if you’re not following these tips already.
I have fine thin AND coarse ribbon shaped hair which gets never greasy, but I need to wash it every other day because it is flat and thin looking even at day 1 after wash.
Its bleached platinum and hips lenght.
I do not have splitt ends or breakage but brushing is impossible, only when my hair is dripping wet.
I blow dry it always to shape curls, otherwise it would be only frizzy and thin looking
I wasn't sure if I had medium or coarse hair (I have lots of volume, but also had oily hair), so I bought the products for fine/medium hair you recommended. They were a big improvement over the oxg products I was using, and I was able to a week without washing with some dry shampoo sprinkled in once during the week. But while oily hair was no longer a problem, dryness and frizz still remained. I used a hair mask which made a huge improvement instantly, so I decided to try the products for coarse hair. Another big improvement. The moccorian oil fixes my dry ends but doesn't weigh my hair down despite using a generous amount each morning. The frizz dimiss also reduced frizz significantly (and using an invis-bobble at night probably doesn't hurt)
I also have medium hair with tons of volume but an oily hair problem. I just bought the recommended products for coarse hair (the Moroccanoil shampoo and conditioner). I hope it works the same for me, as all other shampoos and conditioners always make my hair dry... would you say the hair mask is still beneficial for you?
@@MultiKingfull Dry hair hasn't been a problem since. I also use the Moroccan oil hair conditioner when I don't have time for a hair mask and it works well too.
I'm still not 100% happy with my ends, but that's more to do with my natural hair pattern. It goes into an S shaped wave so the ends curl up near the bottom. I've gotten better at blow drying which has reduced it significantly, and it does get easier to mange as my hair gets longer. I'm sure straighteners would fix it completely, but I'm going to let it grow out a little bit more before trying that (10 inches atm).
Any advice for women with thinning hair?
I purchased the recommended products. I have coarse hair and I have curly hair and I struggle with frizz so I am excited to do this now.
This doesn't really work for me because I have tightly coiled afro hair. My strands are medium, but I have high density. I don't have to worry about my scalp getting to oily when my hair is in its natural state. Products don't tend to weigh down my hair. I can use a ton of product and my coils will still bounce all over the place.
This advice isn't for Afro textured hair. It's for European or Asian hair. Our hair structure is completely different and we need more emollients, moisture, and more product.
I enjoy watching his channel but he's not an expert on our hair, that's why I also watch experts who specialize in our type of hair
Does he have a curly hair video?
Right! It defies gravity!!
@@xaphire6m.860 Afro Textured hair needs those same things? Are u ok
I have not ever heard you address AGED HAIR! Yes. Women who are over 50 or 60 yrs. of age. We have unique problems such as thinning hair due to age and non-existent hormones. Do you even work with older women? I am 76 yrs. old (told I look much younger, as I am vegan and walk 10,000 steps every morning), have been blond all my life - natural for the better part of it, but enhanced with color products. (I'm obstinately blond😅) My hair has always been one of my best features. Now, it is thin, dry and will not hold a style. I have been told by several stylists that my hair is coarse. It never gets oily.
I also moved to the beach 5 yrs. ago where the heat and humidity are ALWAYS high. I need a hair plan for me, with products that are vegan and not tested on animals. (Redken does not qualify!) ARE YOU UP FOR THE CHALLENGE!!?? 😊
Im so annoyed with hair stylists saying to only wash your hair every third day. I have fine hair and its oily by the end of the first day. Its really gross to wash my hair that infrequently. Do people eally walk around with oily hair every day?
what if you have chemically damaged curly hair? how can we fix it/ what can we do in the meanwhile it grows out?
You have to do a hair routine about Afro
I have fine textured curly hair (like my German mom's hair - but curled). I can't use olive oil or almond oil, even in small amounts, because they weigh my curls down, but coconut oil or grapeseed oil are fine. I'm sharing this for people who don't have any experience with curly hair so that they know not all curls are coarse. My hair definitely isn't. If I feel coarseness I'll check for split ends- and if it's coarse then ill find a lot and know it's time for a trim. Split ends can't be repaired and they make your curls look terrible and seem like they cause them to get tabgled more easily.
I think we must have similar genetics! I have German heritage on both sides and have fine wavy/curly hair as well. Thanks for sharing, I think I will give grape seed oil a try!
I watched it to see my hair type according to him, but I don't understand why he put a not straight hair image in the coarse hair... Can not coarse hair be straight too? And curly, 3b, 4 hair be fine or medium? Mine is curly, 3b/ 3c, but its VERY fine, a hairddreasser said it looks like baby hair. I'm from Brasil, I was always saw the hair types being divided as straight, curly and kinky, or something like that... I don't know... for this video, mine hair Iwould be fine but it doesn't stick to head, and it's so easily stick to head. It has volume, so maybe we are a mixture of them, and not only everyone is only one thing??
I love your videos I’ve been watching you for a couple weeks. I have fine and curly hair. My hair takes along time to grow. My front hair is also take long to grow. Any recommendations? I would appreciate it. Thank you for your educational videos on Jaír🙏
I know he works with mostly or only white people hair when he said fine hair lacks texture. You can definitely have fine hair and even coily/nappy hair.
Watching more, I think he's using these terms very loosely. Fine, medium, coarse = the thickness of each individual hair strands. Nothing to do with curls or volume
I definitely have coarse hair. Super thick and too much volume. Looks dry. But my roots still get greasy on day 2-3
This is helpful. I def have medium hair and my daughter has coarse hair. Her hair can go get way longer without having to retouch. Getting these 2 products for blow dry preps
Great videos! I'm a guy with a full head of medium length coarse hair, that has little to no idea how to maintain it. I do construction-type work in a hot/dry Texas climate, and I've stopped washing my hair everyday after seeing your videos. However, I perspire a lot when I'm doing this type of work. Based on your recommendation, I recently purchased Redken's Har Cleansing Cream, and would like to know what shampoo and conditioner you suggest, and how often to use them in these extreme circumstances (rinsing daily, etc.?) Keep up the great work. Thanks!
My hair has multiple personalities. Parts are wavy, curly and a patch of very frizzy hair growing out of the crown. I have tried almost every product known to man and nothing helps with the frizzy except a hot tool.
You're amazing. .. I used your hair washing method in which you mainly put your focus on the scalp , it really helped my hair look silkier and my ends were not dry like usual thank you
Hi, great video :-) Can you maybe adwise other leave in conditioners? The one you recommend can not be bought in my country?
oh. I didn’t realize that I have coarse hair. Thanks. I’ve noticed that it’s thick (I say that it looks like afghan hound ears if I try to wear a headband because I have so much hair). Since becoming chronically ill and finding daily hair washing to be more challenging, I’ve been surprised by how long I can go without washing my hair before it looks bad. Now it makes sense. Thanks.
Do you have any videos for curly hair?
Hi Chris, can you extend shipping to Australia 🇦🇺 please! You have lots of fans down under, I tell everyone about you. I have the best hair of my life now because of your help & advise! Thankyou ❤🎉😊
I feel I have medium hair but I’m prone to frizz so I tend to pick heavy products
Hello @Chris, I'm from the country Bangladesh, in Asia. I'm 30 and a mother of two, and have got textured hair. I've got very dry hair, with thin strand which becomes puffy after drying. My hair roots are wavy but gets curly at the end side. It becomes very difficult to manage my hair as they are exyremely tangled prone..😢
So after watching this video I realised that my 4c hair doesn’t fit into any of these categories.
It doesn’t get greasy because it’s Afro hair, it doesn’t stay flat to my head because it’s Afro hair, it has volume not because it’s course but because it’s Afro hair.
It’s as if Afro hair doesn’t exist based on this video or any other video I’ve seen on this channel.
Afro hair can be fine, yet not need to be washed often because it doesn’t ever get greasy.
Would be great if maybe he’d do just one video to acknowledge the coiliest of hair does exist.
Hey Chris! Rewatching this video and thought if you could talk about different hair type for different climate. Thanks! ❤
I honestly don’t know about my hair. Seems to be fine strands, but lots of it. Naturally curly and VERY prone to frizz in humidity. I have no idea what products to use. Gets weighed down very easily. Feels super dry and not shiny. I’m willing to try anything…just don’t seem to fit neatly into one of these categories. 😢
Hi. Based on your description, I would have medium hair. I always thought it was fine hair. I can’t make curls stay and get it to have volume, even when it’s long, it doesn’t look that long, my bottom strands somehow gather together leaving space in between them. Also, I do think I have an allergy when it comes certain ingredients from shampoos, most of them give me an itchy scalp and sometimes even sores. The only one that helps my scalp out currently, is Maria Nila but it doesn’t offer me too much volume. I wish to have volume but also a healthy scalp and maybe longer hair.
Are you using the volume series?
@@susanneandersen3417 I use the Heal series, because it was the first one to come into my hand that was gentle to my scalp and I didn’t want to risk wasting more money on anything else. I was thinking on trying the Volume series from them though
@@andreearusen9452 It could be worth trying, maybe you can find a discovery/travel set or get samples from your hair stylist :)
I also can’t get curls to stay, I can’t get volume, my hair gets greasy quickly, but I think my hair is medium as well!
You are an amazing educator!!! I worked in my family's salon as a nail tech and assistant, and I learned how to do a professional shampoo. My hair used to be medium, shiny and healthy. However, now I have short, coarse, dry, color treated menopausal hair, so, I wash once a week using the Moroccan Oil products. My question: Is there anything I can do besides keratin treatments to restore the health of my hair.
He has spoken about Olaplex No. 3 to help with damaged hair, you should look into one of his videos on it! Might be what you're looking for :)
I hope he takes master classes for curly and coily hair. There are so many great tips but it's a whole different ballgame with curls and coils. If you disagree you have straight hair and/or have no experience or education with it.
This video is good but it’s simple. Everything is based on how old you are because hair ages. I always had fine hair, but it was very dense and now that I’m in my 60s it has thinned and it is very frizzy when the weather is damp. It’ll be flatter on the roots if I don’t use a volumizer, but if I do it on the ends, it frizzes out and looks damaged. Your videos are very good for people that are younger.
Omg. I love this guy!!!
Texture does NOT de facto mean coarse!! I have baby fine high porosity 3b-3c curly hair that is as oily as it is dry, fragile, and sensitive, and it starts getting and feeling greasy at day 2 after washing, despite being SUPER frizzy due to how high it’s porosity is.
A coarse hair strand is one that is thick and wide and big, regardless of the amount of texture and porosity that the hair has, and can naturally take a large amount of heat before burning, unlike my hair which is so fine that it burns even from the sun!
Your videos are very helpful and I enjoy watching them! You have helped so many people and I am one of them. But have you ever considered to suggest any cruelty free products?
Thanks for sharing all this information. In case of physical exercise what would be your advice regarding hair washing?
The number alphabet chart basically only explains YOUR CURL TYPE if u have any. Eg I'm C3 but I don't know anything else Eg the porosity
Thank you this helped I was doing research to try to figure out what hair type I have I think my hair is either 2b or 2c❤❤❤ your videos.
I love your videos. Yes I have very fine hair. I wash only twice a week, and I have been putting hair oil and leave in conditioner.
I barely use electrical supplies too. My habit is cutting it too often. I'm learning not to. Thanks for the tips.
This was very helpful, thank you! I have fine hair and I work out frequently. I hate the idea of going to bed with a sweaty, dirty head. Typically I'll just rinse my hair (no shampoo) in the shower, blow dry it till it's dry and then go to bed. What is the best way to go 4 days between washes while also not going to bed with a post workout head of hair? Thanks! Looking forward to trying new products and methods 😁
Rinsing doesn’t equal washing, if you’re just rinsing to get the sweat out- that’s perfectly fine. Stick with shampoo every 4 days.
You know your head actually LOVES sweat?!
Using dry shampoo in between washes and changing your pillowcase more often. That's what I do.
Ok, I have a question I'm hoping you or someone here can help me with. My hair is extremely curly and I used to think it was thick as a child because it was so curly, but it's actually really thin. I would have thought that would be categorized as "fine" hair, but it's actually really dry and doesn't get oily for a long time. Would that be considered "coarse" even though it's not thick?
I’m also curly with fine hair. Super dry scalp. I could go many many many days without seeing oil on my roots.
Any tips for swimmers on how to protect hair?
Discovered your channel this week. Have learned a ton! I have a lot of hair! However, I have a section hair in the front of my scalp that has stopped growing in. Is there really a product that promotes hair growth as we get older on certain spots of the scalp?
Do you still wash it every 5-7 days for coarse hair despite commuting in dust and pollution everyday?
So i got the redken volume injection shampoo and conditioner, tried it out yesterday and it left my hair feeling like straw 😞 I was really bummed cuz it's not cheap. I had to deep condition to get a bit of moisture back. I'll stick to the extreme strengthening, it leaves my hair so soft and improves the condition.
He hasn't mentioned it but I've really been liking viori
I also wanted to try it per his recomendation but when I saw that it contained alcohol denat I hesitated. Fine hair is sensitive and prone to breakage as it is so I don't understand why someone would recommend a product like that. But I'm not a hair stylist so maybe I'm missing something :)
@@amtfh4566 In which product is alcohol denat?🙄
@@dangaw6392The Redken volume injection shampoo.
@@amtfh4566 The recommended shampoo for fine hair was pulp riot when I got the list not redken.
Hi Chris, loving your videos. So informative very helpful. I think I have fine hair because, it can be styled then you run a brush through it, goes flat!! My scalp however I believe I could go 2 months and my wouldn't be oily??
Me too! My hair looks good for day one…..then IF I TOUCH it, no Volume or , movement
Hi Chris! Can you make a video about porosity? It's another hair type I've heard and that a lot of products we use must be according to our hair porosity
I have coarse hair, wavy-to-straight and my solution to the excess of hair was cutting a fringe 😂Now I don't need to go to the hair salon every three months just to be stripped of all of the excess of hair with thinning scissors.
Also my hair was always dry and frizzy until I discovered serums & oils at the beginning of 2021 and now I have the smoothest hair ever 😍
Can do an video on how to take care of curly hair?
I feel like maybe the word “coarse” is a turn off, but coarse doesn’t mean “bad” or “ugly” i think course just refers to the shape of it.
Fine - it lays flat.
Medium - there’s some wave and most of it doesn’t lay flat.
Coarse - it can be wavy or curly - and it doesn’t lay flat against the head.
Some of my hair is fine - the stuff on the top.
Some of it is medium. Some of it is super curly which I take to mean - coarse.
I simply put more of the recommended products on the coarse parts and less on the fine bits parts.
It seems to be working.
I have fine hair but not oily at all. Rather just the opposite dry most of the time. Im a senior so maybe that contributes to dryness.
I don't think its so simple I have fine hair but I have a tonne of hair strands. So I have thick hair but fine hair at the same time. I could never use volume shampoo and conditioners it would be a total disaster my hair would be so dry.
I have thin, fine, white hair. I have all the products you’ve recommended and I’m in heaven. Just one teeny weeny problem. When I step outside my hair is blown like a dead dandelion! Hair spray doesn’t get it. Help!
Hi Chris
Could you please help me?
I always thought I had fine hair, because it is thin, breaks easily and is damaged. But it is never greasy, I could go for 10 days without washing it.
Which hair type could that be?
My coarse hair generally matches most of your description but because it's stick straight it has NO volume at all and sticks to my head and looks flat and lifeless and like I have no hair at all. It feels rough and coarse and wiry but it looks smooth and silky (until you touch it!) and it's tough and resistant and won't hold a curl at all, in fact it's impossible to change its natural shape in any way, for example I can't change the part either, or put it up in a ponytail because it's so heavy it just falls back down. The rest is true, it's very heavy so it's not easy to weigh down, and as far as the hair is concerned I can go a week without washing it and it doesn't get greasy. But I need to wash it every other day because if I don't I get huge patches of dandruff.
For anyone trying to get his list, you have to manually put in your info. You won't get anything if you use autofill.
Hello. Do you have a video where you can show us how to blow dry wavy hair? Thank you.
I do have fine hair..but absolutely never is oily at all! And have an itchy scalp but right on top only
Ok so I bought the Redken group - injection shampoo and conditioner, brushable hairspray and heat protectant. I washed twice and both times the bubbles were the same unlike the descriptions here. I have never used salon products on my long hair and so this was a huge deal and splurge. My hair looks exactly the same as it always has and nothing about these four Redken products did anything different for me.
I have thin/fine straight hair… and I don’t think I can go 3-4 days without washing it… by the second day afternoon, it’s already super oily…
