Question..... What's your favorite grease for definition?
Blue magic, $1 softee Indian hemp and soon I will bring in Dax. I use leave in before applying bc it helps the grease. Leave in mixed with grease turns it custard like😌
@@coronavirus5738 Thanks for that
That Indian Hemp that she mentioned 👇🏾 is pretty decent! & it smells soooo good. And in my head, the pieces of hemp does something special to the hair... I braid kids hair with that often. Blue Magic, the Blue is my favorite. Use that often. Need more as I'm out of it.
And sulphur 8 grease because sometimes my scalp gets itchy and flaky. Sulphur 8 keeps the flakes at bay!
I saw your hair in the mentioned video & was wondering if it was a wig or not? It looked REALLY GOOD!
Skin Lover no sis, we thriving over here lol
@@SheReaDelSol Yes you are!!! DOOOO THAT👊🏾
Hair thicker than a Snicker.
Praise be! We've come a long way!
I've been using the blue magic Castor oil or the super sure grow one as a sealent on my 8 yr old daughter's hair and I use regular jbco on her scalp and now she has mid back length hair....don't sleep on grease
ayeeee
Your videos on grease have definitely inspired me to try using them again. Esp. since I've been lazy about my hair recently and haven't felt like re-moisturizing multiple times a week (which is what I usually have to do). So having a strong enough sealant to keep the moisture in all week sounds perfect.
🙏🏾🙏🏾
Giiiiirrrrrrrrllllllll that grease has some bomb ingredients in it!!! I’m shooketh!!! 😳😳😳😳😳
Yes I would like to see the comparison with the original BM!!
Ok hon!
So I am literally binge watching videos on Blue Magic hair grease and then you uploaded this video. Wow! I am buying BM grease today. I have never used Blue Magic anything. Thanks for your videos.
You're welcome!
Literally same, although I just got mine 2 weeks ago I’m still watching mad videos, did it work well for you?
I am a blue magic greasy natural! And 😻 LOVE ❤️ IT!!!
AYEE
I love Dax and softee. I just tried the BLUE Blue Magic For the first time and it wasn't as heavy as people had mentioned it to be. Its great.
I use it as a leave in conditioner under my gels and on dry hair. 😍😍😍
Thanks for the tip!
I was going to try that as well. To use it under gel. Was it soft with no crunch?
D S I do the same. My wash and go’s be so soft.
GoddessOfGods82 I just bought some today. I will try it next wash day which is Friday.
They say you’re not supposed to put grease or sealant on anything dry
The grease side looks more elongated to me?!?!
Makes sense because greases weighs your hair down. Elongation isn' t my goal tho.
I swear you be reading my mind 😭😭 I just searched 'hair grease vs castor oil" and your name popped up with an upload from 45 minutes ago. Then I was mad at youtube for not giving me the notification, but I pulled down my bar and there it was lol. Mad for no reason. Thank you for all of the bomb a** content recently! You starting off 2020 strong as hell
Dat is the plan! Going hard this year
2020 is all about hair grease 👌💙😂
Apparently
Period!
Happy Saturday sis! When I use this, it is only as a sealant. I love that you are experimenting on your hair. That is my favorite thing to do so that I can give a first hand experience answer when asked...
Agreed. I like being informed
I love blue magic super sure gro grease! It’s my favorite and when you moisturize your hair first then use as a sealant it works! What can I say I love grease!
I gotta compare that to the indian hemp
This is the one i use!!! I want to try the Indian hemp one next cause ive heard really good reviews abt it.
i love that one too.
Yes, I would love to see how the original BM works.😊
I got you!
Im loving the grease videos! I have to try some. Can you do a video on your wash day after using grease? I know one of the main issues when using grease is making sure your hair is properly cleansed to avoid buildup. I really liked the jbco side.
I can and I will. Got lots to film but it’s on my list
You've inspired me to want to give grease another try. I haven't used it since my hair was relaxed...and that was on my scalp.
Let me know how it goes
Finally! A video that shows a 7-day comparison of moisture retention!!!!! Two thumbs up!
You’re very welcome
I love how you give us such quality videos. Your vids are never just slapped together. I appreciate your hard work queen 👑 ♥️♥️♥️
I appreciate you for noticing. Thank you
I wonder whatwould happen IF:
1. You use a LEAVE IN, GEL then GREASE
2. LEAVE IN, best twist defining butter then grease or the other way around...
Maybe youll have moisturised AND super defined hair for WEEKS!👀👀👀
You know I plan to try lol
Ummm....grease OVER the gel. I am going to try it both ways. I think I put grease over my creme gel from Design Essentials. It smells great and I did see some definition...not a lot, but some. I mixed up my routine I tried from Shilinda1 and Sharmaine369. If I had of stayed with their routine, I would have had more definition. And my hair is HARD to get perfect def....
Angie’s Prerogative I’ve tried this and yes you do get moisturized and defined hair basically until you wash it lol beware it may make you a bit reckless I would go to sleep without a bonnet or re twisting just cause I knew it would last 😆
@@melitaingram1621 It make you a bit reckless!!🤔🤣 well I guess I will be a bit reckless
The grease will DEFINITELY give you a bomb twist out. I had my hair in twists for 3 weeks. I took them down intending to change my style before wash day for the following week & hunny.... The curls! The definition! The moisture 😭😂 I was perplexed Chile.
If you have an IG I can send a picture if you want
Yessss I just bought my softee Indian hemp grease and I will incoparate it in my regimen for the next month to see the benefits!!
✊🏾✊🏾
Softee is sooooo good!
Water and grease was the way to go back in the 70's!
Yup!
I could see why the grease side has less definition...due to heavier oils/butters in it. Overall, both sides looked good and I think it is a matter of preference. I liked the JBCO side better. For my type of hair, more definition looks better on me - except I don't always get what I want, lol! Yes, most important is the moisturization...I almost got caught up in your definition. I get heavy-handed as well when it comes to products. It feels like it is not enough, then all of a sudden, it is like overkill! I am mindful of how much I use now. TFS.
TFW!
The castor oil blue magic is my favorite grease. It seem to be growing my hair faster.
Your videos are always informative. I love the way you break down the ingredients and I love the way you give us demos of products with your own hair. Thank you!
You are welcome!
I like Dr. Miracle and so far my hair is responding well. Anyone else used this product?
Nice.
I have
Love it! The side with the jbco gave a little bit more definition. But love the results all around
Thanks honey
I like softee grease but there is a jbco hair butter which is basically hair grease only made out of jbco , the only issue i have with grease and the jbco butter is my hair being too oily
I have That. Just haven’t used it yet
Whats the name of the butter you use?
Great comparison video. I did the black rice water and aloe vera Juice regimen today. And my hair felt Ah-mazing!!!! Thank you!! 💖💖💖
Told y’all! Glad it worked
Also you want to use a castor oil or grease when straightening because THICK oils won't break down as quickly as synthetic oil which is a thinner oils, usually in spray bottles. Hair will be weighed down but won't damage hair.
Thanks for watching.
True. That's why folks still had nice thick hair when the press and curl was big back in the day. They used pressing oil.
I just can't use grease. I have fine strands and low to medium density, and no matter how I use it, it just doesn't work.
Totally makes sense
Im medium density with fine strands too. It works for me because I have high porosity hair.
@@vee3133 I'll have to give it another try then. I only tried the original. I have high porosity too.
@@MzAlexa94 I dont use blue magic. I use Nature's blessings grease. Its lightweight. I get mine on Amazon
I struggled with that too when I had a tapered cut and let the top grow out. My twists would just droop over. But it helped my high porosity sections fill in and retain length.
Ok you got me... I'm buying some next week... I've had the blue one and Indian Hemp but never tried the castor oil.
Worth a try!
Never tried the castor oil Blue Magic 🤔....Will definitely look for it next time. Great video 😍
You're welcome!
I use both I use a little grease on top of my jbco
Thanks for the tip
I just did mine the same today. I thought I made a big mistake but you did the same. Now I can breath.
Love your hair. So soft and fluffy! I tried a diy moisturizer with water, aloe vera gel, vegetable glycerin, jojoba oil, avocado oil, olive oil, vitamin E, tea tree essential oil and sunflower lecithin. My hair feels so soft. Have to shake the mister before I spray my hair but your first Blue Magic video inspired me to try a diy
Ohhh sounds bomb!
Hair goals, super thick. My hair shed so badly after I had my son but I’m back on my healthy hair journey.
Good luck on your journey!
I have the blue, green, castor oil and hemp Blue Magic. I love the hemp better. Seems thicker and more moisturizing in my opinion.
Good to know. Thanks!
I'm debating on buying the Castor or coconut oil one
Okay hair grease, they got fenugreek, aloe Vera and henna?? Dang let me go get some because some of these twisting butters out here not up to par for all that money 👀. I’m just not ready to go back to using more stripping shampoos in order to get all that grease off my hair. I have to double cleanse some times if I use black castor oil too often.
You know grease rinsed out well with my non sulfate shampoo. Currently testing that.
SheRea DelSol OMG 😱 that’s why I freaking luv ya, as long as I can wash it out I’ll go back to using grease for the winter. Would you test out if soultanicals butta shampoos will be able to wash this out as well? Or the deva curl no poo shampoo?
I’m out of my butta shampoo 😩
SheRea DelSol aww don’t worry bout it, I’ll try it out and see how it turns out and let you know 🥰
sounds good
It's bomb on the scalp I mix mine with oil and use that on twist out blow outs etc
Loved loved this video!!!😍😍 And look at ALL that beautiful hair!!!!
Thankssss boo
Apply grease on wet hair for more shine and volume dear
I don't like applying anything on wet hair. My hair is shiny and voluminous enough
Honestly took a break from grease since 2nd big chop in 2018. I use to use oyin handmade burnt sugar pomade when I first went natural. I would get couple days of definition and softness but haven't used it recently. May revisit it. I now use a homemade oil mix (mainly on my scalp) which includes jbco. But great video 👍👍
Thanks love
I’ve been using that blue Blue Magic. I think I’m going to switch since I saw some of its ingredients on the list of endocrine disruptors in Black hair products. JBCO makes my scalp itch.
Which ones?
SheRea DelSol On the list of fragrances, the linalool and limonene. I guess fragrances are a problem. There’s something about them being on California’s Prop 65 and Europes banned product list but I’ve got to look that up.
I saw this in an article on toxins in air fresheners. Interestingly, those ingredients are in some of my Mane Choice products. Crazy how much stuff can be a problem.
They go on to say that a 2002 EPA test found that fresheners plugged into electrical outlets react with common indoor air pollutants to produce toxic chemicals like benzene derivatives, pinene and limonene, aldehydes, phenol, and cresol. Pinene and limonene apparently react with ozone to create formaldehyde and other chemicals connected with respiratory problems. Other toxic chemicals found in air freshener plug-ins include benzyl alcohol, camphor (known to cause eye and skin irritation), dichlorobenzene (toxic to the nervous system), ethanol (derived from petroleum and considered carcinogenic), and more. The MCS concludes, “Indoor air quality experts recommend against using chemical air fresheners and/or chemical room deodorizers of any kind.”
@@mswtaz94 lord jesus
SheRea DelSol Right. Girl Vo5 hot oil treatment is on the doggone list. I use to use that religiously. It’s like 18 actual names products on it. Smh
I might have to experiment with the blue magic castor oil I’m not crazy about the coconut oil or the original. I use the okay pure naturals jbco with lemongrass and my hair has been growing.
ayeee. Happy for you.
I love the Okay Coconut, it has my hair so hydrated.
You’re so cute and funny! I luv the old skool method plain on grease-what my momah used in my hair! Luv your videos😘
Thank you dear
Oils are my favorite sealant. I’ve never used grease, but I think oils are just better. Natural ingredients and helps me with hair growth.
Happy growing!
I'm relatively new to your channel and I love how you add a fan so your hair is flowy and bouncy lol. Love it
Girl, no, my studio is hotttttttttt LMAO
@@SheReaDelSol LOOL. Well it was a perfect "accident"
I love Africa's Best Super gro grease!!!
Yasssssss now this is something new and different! And I'm here for it!! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 Almost broke my damn nail, clicking so fast on this video 💖
Haha. Thank you hon
Great video! Your hair is seriously flourishing!! I still use pomades like Oyin Burnt Sugar, Bekura, SheScentIt, and Camille Rose pomades.
Oyin is a fave!
@@SheReaDelSol yes!! When we did use grease when I was little I remember Blue Magic and Softee Hair Food and in high school the Coconut oil grease... I had found memories of that one which I guess is why I love pomades so much..
Shescentit is such an underrated company but the products are so good!
@@cfoster6804 I agree!!!
Have you tried the jbco butter? Would be interested to know your thoughts on that
Not yet!
Its bomb !! I use that and fertilizer on my edges daily!!
Soooo, last Friday, I incorporated that very same blue magic grease with Shea Moisture Manuka Honey and Mafura Oil leave-in milk (had them both for a while). I'm on day 4 of complete moisture. The patches over my ears no longer feel like sandpaper. I'm doing cartwheels.
I lied, my blue magic has shea butter, jojoba oil and Japanese green tea leaves. Smells awesome!
Happy for you!
omg ui used the same thing on my hair 😮
I love love love your hair . I don't blame your friend for playing with your hair because it's so thick and beautiful.
AWWW thanks
@@SheReaDelSol You are so welcome. And I tried that castor oil blue magic and didn't like it. My favorite blue magic grease is the green one with bergamont and olive oil or the super sure grow with the herbs in it. If you want to use something lighter you can also try softee hair greases.
@Janiya Gowdy You definitely correct moisturizing with a leave in or cream moisturizer is very important before applying grease.
Next can you do a side-to-side comparison with LEAVE-IN, GREASE, GEL and LEAVE-IN, GEL and GREASE? Thanks!
Do you use the pineapple method for all your twist/braid outs to protect overnight?
Yes usually. Too lazy to retwist
SheRea DelSol I’m going to try this instead of the straight bonnet. Thanks girl!
deffo wanna see you test out the original blue magic
I got you!
I got 30 minutes before class, just enough time to watch this wonderful video.
😘😘
What shampoo did you use to wash out the grease. I love grease but its hell getting out without irritating my scalp. Thinking of going back to JBCO
Wait.. am i first?!🤪😂. Love ur channel🤗🥰
YOU IS! Thank you hon
*LOL@the intro! I can't tell the difference...I love the big and fluffy.*
❤️❤️
The lavender Jbco is 5.99 right now on target.com for 4oz. Select pickup at store. The other versions are 7.99 and 8.99
I linked it in the description box
Good info. I am experimenting with grease as a sealant. TFS!!
You’re welcome!
First-you hair is THRIVING❤️ I’m here for it.
Second-Residue is why I haven’t added grease back into my regimen. I tried it for a week for my mini twists and I used so so so little lol but my hair and scalp still felt so plastered and coated. Issa a no for me, again. But I needed someone to do this comparison so I know I’m not crazy lol. It really was a close race though.
Very close!
Since the JBCO SIDE felt more moisturizing does it also leave less residue.......on face pillow clothes etc
Neither side left residue on face, pillow etc but I could feel the product on my hair with grease especially
JBCO is my BFF with my natural hair. I mix it with Vitamin E and coconut oil to moisturize my hair and scalp
Thanks for sharing!!
what is the difference b/n JBCO and regular castor oil
Regular castor oil is more refined than JBCO: it does not retain all the nutrients from the castor seed
@@SheReaDelSol ooh i see. Thank you!
Hey beautiful lady w/o makeup. I'm lopo, but fine. Before I went CGM, I went back to grease and JBCO using the same grease u used, I love it. Il be going back to this in the future after the CGM expirement.
Good luck!
I like these comparison videos. I will have to watch this layer...
Thanks love
Is it possible if you can do one with just the blue magic? Adding oils and then blue magic, don’t know which one works.
I put the oils in Blue Magic hair grease or Softee Bergamot hair grease
I have the castor oil grease. Didnt realize it smelled like red koolaid. Way to strong for me ..lol. but it retains moisture
You think? I didn't get that smell at all
Okay after using the products how did you prepare or fix your hair for sleepy time
I can do a video
I used to use that JBCO Grease like 4 yrs ago before I knew my hair, was transitioning to newly more educated natural (again). I LOVED it for its scent mainly. Funny enough, was thinking to revisiting that again after your last video cause this LOPO hair is GREEDY! And remembered from then that my hair would stay moisturized AND soft for DAYS!🙌🏽🖤
Girl give it a go!
I mix the indian hemp formula with oils
makes sense!
My dad and grandmother bring me back JBCO every year from JA and I’m about to go back to strictly just using that.
It’s lit!
You have beautiful hair. I like the light airy side you did with the grease. I wonder if you can mix the 2 to get the best of both products.
People do that!
I used to do that. It works, but my castor oil makes my skin itch so I had to stop doing that.
I like the Cantu leave in omg my curls BE ON POIRNT.. yes I said poirnt girl..
Which one?
@@SheReaDelSol the coconut curling cream line the OG in the game lol my hair LOVES that stuff it's the ONLY thing that keep my hair moisturized I have tried MANY lines and I ALWAYS go back to this particular line
Gotcha!
Could I use this as a cream song with my Jamaican black castor oil? I bought it to replace my Dax hair cream
yes
@@SheReaDelSol thanks so much for the quick reply! I didn’t notice my mistake in my first comment, but what I meant was I saw people were using it online as a sealant instead of a moisturizer/cream, but I bought it to replace my Dax to use as a moisturizer, and use my Jamaican black castor oil as the sealant. Do you think that would work?
The jbco side too me did look obviously more defined and Also shinier and even darker it looked lighter and Flowy-er as well and less stiff
JBCO is the truth!
Wow I just put both on my hair , how often do you this regimen?
Thanks for watching hon
Both look good
Thanks hon
I'm here because my hair is dry af it just sucks everything up then looks dry af
Hope this helped
digging the t-shirt he's wearing.
I know right!
Whoot whoot I have something to watch..
LOL
The JBCO side looked better to me. Not a fan of grease.
Great video
Thanks hon
JBCO LOOK GOOD TO MI
Agreed hon
My hair didn't feel like hay 🤣😉
Blue Magic
Lol your face when you were smelling the product #dead
😂😂😂
The intro took me out 😂😭😭
LOL!
Shes Poppin. Looking like she's modeling. Do you boo :D
Thanks dear
Can you put grease on your scalp?
You can, I don't.
I do and my scalp doesn't itch
If I use it without water, it will itch.
You’re so pretty
Thank you!
You’re welcome 😊‼️
Nice!
Thanks hon
Looks the same to me
Basically
Lmao the way you started the video
Lmaoooooo
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Petrolatum is a derivative of Petroleum which is a known carcinogen and it’s the first ingredient, and all the items at the end of the isn’t you are barely getting any of it in terms of effective amounts. If it’s not in the first 5 those are the items that have the most impact . I’m still taking a hard pass on the grease no matter what they add to it a cancer causing ingredient I can’t do 🤷🏾♀️
I understand
There's always one.🙄 Why ard you even watching?
