For the love of God, STOP 🛑 telling me what to do with my body or telling me what to do with my condition. Inflammation of the skin happens for different reasons.
I get that folks are trying to be helpful but don't assume shit, ASK me! I assure you that everyone's skin situation is different and responds differently. A lot of what you are suggesting I've already explored in great detail with the help of a naturopathic physician, 5 different dermatologists, and self help. Some of you are downright rude, insensitive, and disrespectful. I chose not to continue speaking about my condition for this reason but it's necessary for me to speak out. Please just be considerate and respectful of the fact that I'm not looking for a diagnosis, explanation, treatment, or medical advice.
I'm glad you found out what your issue is. 😢
Thanks for the explications because I was wondering ! I'm so happy you figure it out !
Hi, I was about to try the Apogee leave -in conditioner! But, maybe I will do an allergy test 1st before using just about any product! Thanks for sharing!!❤❤ Enjoy your day!!❤💯💯💯🥰🥰🥰
Allergy tests are rather expensive. I would only do it if there is a need for it. Everyone has different allergies and sensitivities
@@AfrikanHairGodhow long had you been using it before you began breaking out?
@@Zaradikaresells at least 4 years
@@AfrikanHairGod wow…maybe they changed the formula. So sorry
@@Zaradikaresells I think it's just a sensitivity coupled with overexposure
As a haver of sensitive and easily irritated/allergic skin, I'm extremely, extremely elated you finally figured out the root cause!!!! It feels like finding the elixir when you can take the appropriate action and get to watch your skin heal. ❤❤ Congratulations!
Sometimes you can develop an allergy to something over time from constant exposure.
OR nurses, techs, MDs can develop a latex allergy from wearing latex gloves. I worked briefly as an OR nurse.
Its not as common anymore thanks to non latex gloves and PPE.
when I first started working in the healthcare field when I was in my 20s (42 now) it was when we were still using latex powered gloves I developed a sensitivity. Switched to vinyl and the itchy rash went away. What didn’t click was I couldn’t use latex condoms anymore. Found out the hard way.
Finally😮💨 I’m so happy for you
I am happy you were able to find what was causing the issue. And as usual why do I just get a notification like just now when this was up almost a day .
I have exactly the same skin condition i cut my hair off because it was getting too much to deal with as well as adding a water filter to my shower whats mostly worked is cutting out gluten!! And staying moisturized
I think the hydrolyzed proteins in the ingredients which could be causing the allergic reactions/flare up unfortunately. I saw a couple of studies about hydrolyzed ingredients causing inflammation on the skin in humectant products unfortunately.
Had the same condition on my hands for 5yrs.. it has fully healed and you can not tell I went through it.. Braider 30yrs also. I used Liv for over 15yrs, come to find out the last 5yrs I became allergic to it.
So glad you found the root to your problem. I stopped using apogee back in 2011. When I realized it was breaking me out around my crown area.
I'm glad you figured it out early. I don't think they realize how their products are affecting people
I just got rid of it because my hairdresser noticed that my hair thinned out
Oof must be painful as well. Ive suffered a lot from handling cleaning chemicals at the restaurant i worked at and havent gotten it that bad since i stopped working there. My partner is also getting the same kind of reaction around his elbows currently. I hope it gets better soon!
I have something like this that's why I can't use all different hair products I'll get itchy blisters eczema I wish we'll my son has this to God help us🙏
That sounds so painful!!! I can't even imagine! I wonder if limonene/linalool are in the fragrance and causes the sensitivity issue? In a previous video i remember you saying that sometimes with random other household products you have a milder irritation in the same areas. These are two extremely common sensitizers. Another option could be the cetrimonium chloride. I know from experience that the max percentage you can use in a leave in is 2% to avoid skin irritation. When people layer it for days and weeks on end in natural hair practices i wonder how high that percentage actually gets 🤔
I’m glad you figured out what the issue was. Are you going to be switching to another protein treatment?
So far I'm still using the 2 min reconstructor with no issue. But we shall see. I will keep you updated
What grease do you recommend??
I used to have many blisters and I would pop them and then you would turn into deep cuts and eczema all over my fingers.
The only thing that cured me was Using an aveeno or an oatmeal moisturizer and piling on like 6 layers as each layer dries.
It puts a physical barrier on the skin and stopped the eczema.
I'm fine now, no creams. Not worried for the future as I found a solution to my problem.
Hey AHG I mean this with the utmost respect and love... when coming across irritants, I take Allegra for my breakouts. I'm not a doctor or anything, and please don't chop my head off. I'm not saying you should try it. I'm just throwing that info out there. I break out heavily because I'm allergic to everything, and it helps with the initial exposure.
Thank you very much. I'll look into it! 😊 I think people might think that I'm opposed to people trying to help and that's not it at all. I apologize if my pinned comment gave you that impression. 🙏
@@AfrikanHairGod ❤️
Thanks for answering my question. I feel famous now.
Oh noooooo so sorry your skin is reacting like this!!! Man!!!! Would you consider using only natural sensitive skin products?
No I don't think that's really the answer either. I've encountered plenty of clients that are allergic to natural ingredients as well. I think it's just a matter of having options for different situations.
Do you still wear gloves?
@@nikoedwards6080 yes always except when doing haircuts. My skin is still sensitive and reactive. I don't know what's causing the inflammation so it would be unwise to think nothing weekday can hurt me
Go to the dermatologist sir. There is a name for it. Looks a lot like contact dermatitis, eczema, seborrheic dermatitis, or psoriasis. Like you I have really sensitive skin all over my body. The doctor told me at one time to limit putting my hands in water. I don’t see how you can do that on your profession. I couldn’t do that in my profession. I am a teacher. No way I was going without washing my hands. Aquaphor worked well as well as coco butter palmers …. Not the lotion but the cream that looks like a butter that must melt into your skin. Anything that had alcohol base to it is a no no. You have a little of the same thing on your forehead over your eye that is in better control. Most likely because your hands are in water all day and your face area is not. Bless you on your journey trying to find out what works for your skin. All the conditions listed don’t have a cure but once you get it more in control and knowing your triggers you can see improvement. Nothing substitutes a professional as you know good and well you are a professional. Don’t let us diagnose you. Go straight to the source and let the professionals hook you up so that you will not be in pain. The body changes over time and what we could tolerate before sometimes we cannot continue to do. I have seborrheic dermatitis near my eye corners and bridge if nose. It is annoying because you don’t want to put medication near your eyes.
You don't know my situation or what I've gone thru. I'm not seeking a diagnosis or help with treatment. I've been to over 5 dermatologists and none of them being able to help at all... I've been diagnosed and it's obvious that I was misdiagnosed at this point. I've lived with this and have developed an intimate understanding of it despite not having all the answers. These doctors don't know what they are dealing with and just try to throw steroids to mask symptoms instead of getting to the root problem. I asked them years ago to give me an allergy test as I was someone that handles a lot of cosmetics and I got refused multiple times. Then when they did finally give me one or wasn't inclusive of cosmetics. I get that y'all are trying to be helpful but please be more considerate with your verbiage. It's very difficult for me being vulnerable about my health when there are so many people that think they know my body, my condition, or my situation better than I do. I apologize if this came off defensive but this is truly frustrating and comments like this just contribute to my frustration even more.
Hello, these skin condition are crazy it's all a form of eczema or dermatitis. I too deal with this condition, however I have to be on Rinvoq, because steroid creams don't work for me. Hopefully you get some relief, because the flare ups are horrible
@AfrikanHairGod You are so right. The dermatologist(s) I have been to have not had a clue. Especially for us people of color.
All the best!
@@AfrikanHairGod my bad. I thought you left comments on because you wanted people to honestly reflect on what you were saying. You should realize that most people are just scrolling through RUclips shorts and come across your post that way. Nobody is here trying to intentionally scar or hurt you. Disable comments when you don’t want to hear any. Seems hypocritical to tear down ALL dermatologist or specialists in their specific field because your condition wasn’t healed. Some conditions are chronic. You want people to listen to your professional hair advice as a master in your field but you won’t listen to other experts. Hmmm. Then blaming your skin inflammation on a particular product when your hands touch probably multiple products of the course of months. I will be scrolling on and minding my business. I hope others do too.
