It’s true that the Shea Moisture are not as great as they were. The JBCO and Manila that everyone was raving about didn’t impress me. TGIN, tho, put me on my knees. The slip! The softness of my hair!! I’m addicted now
Conditioning 👏 is 👏 a chemical 👏 process. If you leave conditioner on too long it will affect your hair. We have to get away from thinking of relaxers, perms, and bleach/dye as the only chemicals that are applied to hair that can cause damage. Everything is a chemical. We apply chemicals to our hair because they react with the bonds and structure of hair in different ways.
When you spoke about this in your video I wanted to give you a hug.
👍🏾 yeah! am with you on the comb. I don’t come my hair everyday. I think some times we want to jump on the bandwagon with every products the companies put out. Instead of sticking to what works the oldies but goodies.
Awww 🤎 if it isn’t one of my faves glowing on my screen today 😩✨🙌🏾
LOVE YOU
Your hair looks so lovely. BTW, I love how simple you keep your hair routine: I am seriously tired of the gurus who suggest hours of deep conditioning and hundreds of steps and products. Your progress shows me that simple CAN and DO work beautifully.
Your hair looks great. Full and healthy.
Thank you! Took a year to get it back that way! xo
Yaasss! I’ve been waiting on your hair updates! I just relaxed my hair after being natural for the 2nd time for four years 😰 I love my relaxed hair. It’s been thriving like crazy and I love it!! Natural hair was not for me. My hair texture was 3b, 3c, & 4a at the crown of my head.
I feel my hair is the same! My hair at the back of my head is so fine, yet so course at the crown! Thanks for watching beauty !
I am natural but I wear my hair straight and I LOVE your videos!! Most of the products you have recommended I use already. The protein overload issue is a very real concern!! I alternate between my protein shampoo/conditioners with non-protein products. It is hard to stay away from the heat tools and I have both the Dyson Corrale and the GHD flat irons. I typically use the Dyson on wash days and GHD on other days.
Yup agree on the combing, and I have been very "dedicated" read lazy about unwrapping in the morning especially if I do not leave the house. The lack of manipulation is generating benefits! Joico is the GOAT!
Agreed! I love not going anywhere - well, my hair does. Lol
Just went back to a perm after years of wearing my natural hair! Your videos are keeping My hope alive for growing my thick 4a/4b hair in a healthy permed state! Thank you seriously 🥺👏🏽
Your hair looks so thick and healthy!!! I am so happy for you!!!!
I enjoy your hair and product updates so much! Your voice is so calming 😍 And I agree, finger detangling is a game changer 👍🏽
You’re too kind. Thank you!!!
Great advice! You're hair is so healthy and flawless! I don't understand either why companies got to put protein in about all there hair products. I checks the ingredient list now for protein. I use to just purchase the product and use it without checking the ingredients and experience protein overload. Lesson learned!! Beautiful flat iron! 🔥🔥🔥
You’ve been motivating me so much I had a huge set back last year, thank you!!!
Same, babe! I really doubled down and made Haircare my priority. Thrilled with the results!
Thank you for the juicy info ❤️! The Cantu Care for Kids Conditioning Detangler spray is life CHANGING !
THANK YOU!!! Looking for it now!
Great hair update. Learning the ingredients on the hair products I put on my hair was life changing for me. Great advice. 👍🏽
Thank you, babe!
You look incredible!❤
GORGEOUS.
You deserve the BEST!🧚♀️
Your hair looks beautiful! Thanks for the inspiration! I use a microwaveable heating cap... absolutely the best thing I’ve done for my hair.
Your hair looks healthy and beautiful!!
Great update video! GHD is amazing! A friend from the UK told me about them maybe 10 years ago and I bought a flat iron then and it still works. I bought another one a few years ago and I will never use another brand. Good tip about deep conditioning. I love keracare humectoas it's so moisturizing but I've come to learn that I can't use it too often. For me, it's almost too moisturizing and then I have to dump a bunch of protein in. That moisture/protein balance is so key!
You had the ghd on another video and I got it right after watching and I’ll never go to another straightner again. It is literally a one pass!!! I love it sooo much
I love it so much too! A complete gamechanger. I got the Dyson Corralle too. Excited to try it - lots of hype! xo
I also like bunning my hair as a protective style. I prefer to do loose curly buns after a twist out so that I can avoid heat and the need to comb. It also looks cute with little curls hanging down. BUT, the key change for me to avoid breakage when bunning is from using a silk/satin scrunchie!! Not a SINGLE hair will get caught in it so you won’t even need to move the bun around to avoid breakage, and you can get the skinnier less ‘schoolgirl’ ones too! I will never let a regular hairband into my hair again. 🙅🏾♀️
Yay! A hair video. Much appreciated!🙋🏽♀️❤
HAHA! I have my diehard hair fans and my diehard "other video" fans! xo Thanks for watching!
You look stunning!
Thanks for the update!
PS I LOVE Aussie's Leave in Conditioner! I went natural a couple years ago, but both my relaxed and natural hair soak it up!
And I'm the same, I rarely comb my hair, and it's been doing great!
Thank you! Glad there are other "no comb" babes out there! hahaha!
I love the video. Your hair is beautiful and... I realized the hair on my nape was breaking off from the scarfs. I too, switched to the satin bonnet and my hair is thriving with no more breakage from the scarf.
I'm not relaxed but I love your videos and your voice is super soothing lol.
Thank you the tips were great!
You are welcome, Marilyn! xo
Love the update, your hair has really bounced back! . If you haven’t found a good leave in yet try the one from the new Aveda Replenish line. I tried the sample trio then ordered the full size leave in. Will def get the moisturizing shampoo too. Recently went from texlaxed back to relaxed and got serious about quality products with real moisturizing priorities. I quit the Keratase oleo products loaded with silicones that lead to dryness and breakage on my ends unless I clarify weekly-no bueno for me.
You are simply beautiful!
Your hair looks amazing!
Thank you so much for the video.
I'm a huge Joico fan myself.
If you don't mind me asking?
I totally understand how it feels to want to grow your hair out.
Have you ever considered clip-in extensions just to add a little length?
Not to use everyday, but just to add a little extra length when you want it?
I personally cannot handle the clip-ins, because they hurt my head, but I have been using halo extensions.
I like to have that option when I want it, but I definitely don't use everyday.
Again, you are simply beautiful.
I'm glad that I found another Joico lover and channel! :)
Great tips Dom! A few that I already practice in my hair routine. Important tip: You must switch up the protective styles!
Honey I tried to tell you Shea moisture was not a good product but I was going to see how long it took you to get there LOL I’ve pretty much been doing the same thing I reverted back to my regimen some years ago before I start seeing a stylist and now my hair is thriving!!! I will do a pic on the Facebook page style domination soon!!!
Awesome 👌🏾
Sleeping with conditioners overnight you know I used to do that back in the day maybe 7 years ago but as time goes on you learn more when it comes to products and how to apply them and how they respond to your hair I teach this a lot of my channel :) followed The directions of every product that you use you don't have to leave it on for hours or days some allow you to leave it on for 30 minutes with heat or even without heat they say 5 to 10 minutes and that's good enough because whoever the scientists were behind the product they already know what the product will do because it's formulated just to stay on for so many minutes. Thank you ever so kindly for this video God-bless you🙏🏽😊
You're welcome! xo
So happy to see you posting regularly again. Love you thick healthy ends 😍 Have you stopped using s-curl completely?
Thank you so much! I definitely still use S Curl! It really softens your hair!
I’d love to see a video of the steam pod!
I waited patiently for the re-upload. :-)
Thank you so much! iMovie can be such a pain! xo
Your hair has grown alot!!!!!!!
I got the mix silk for mom and it is awesome!!!!!!
Happy Monday my friend!!!!!
I am so glad you do NOT use the microwave to heat deep conditioner your hair. ❤️. I puy your heat cap in my Amazon list. Thanks.
I stopped combing in the mornings. I moisturize and bun my hair go to bed and then in the morning finger through
This is just smart! Trying this! Thank you!
Me too!
Try using a satin scrunchie, even more protection from breakage!
Yes, good idea. I have done this for years.
Great video! Finger detangling has been a game changer for me as well. You should try TGIN Green Tea Super Moist Leave in Conditioner for detangling. It works great!
Your hair looks lovely ❤
The shine on your hair is incredible! You're def doing something right! I agree about Olaplex! It brought my hair back to life after a protein overload setback. But I can only use it once a month. It's too strong! I'm curious about the non-combing benefit bc I find when my hair is properly moisturized and not too weighed down, it doesn't break at all when I comb it. The first 2 days after wash day I barely get any breakage. Breakage starts on day 3 if I don't moisturize.
Aussssiiiieeee is the BEST, and protein free!
Joico leave in detangler is VERY good Dom!
I use the s-curl moisturiser as a detangler as it really softens my new growth
Thanks for sharing dear
I love you're product recommendations because you love salon products just as much as I do. There's nothing wrong with drugstore but to me there are certain products that are best from the salon. I've been using joico k-pak shampoo and conditioner for my protein and it's just ok to me. My hair loves protein but I only got them because my AG products I liked were discontinued so once again I need something else, any ideas? I cannot be a finger detangler, lol. I know a lot of people swear by it though so if it works, it works. I used the olaplex twice a month, have you tried their leave-in yet? I swear when I watch your channel I leave with a list, lol. You're hair is coming along beautifully!!
Totally looks so full.
Thank you so much for sharing. Do you also take supplements and which ones?
Steam is fabulous particularly when deep conditioning. Works for natural and relaxed hair. It is a slept on aspect of conditioning hair. Heat is a DETRIMENT TO HAIR OF ANY KIND. Respect heat. Randomness and irrelevant to some, but you are gorgeous and feminine and classy. Things that must be said. Bravo fellow Canuck girl. Aussie is so slept on as a product. Their conditioners are fantastic for relaxed and nautural hair. Cheap and cheerful and it works.
Hi Dominique. Your hair looks very healthy and has grown a lot. What are the steps to moisturizing and sealing relaxed, roller-set hair without wetting it or reverting to curls?
Your hair looks fantastic! I started steaming my hair once a week or once every 2 weeks and my hair absolutely loves it. My hair is now past my bra strap in the back. You should do a video on hair steamers. Mine is on wheels which is very convenient. Regarding Joico - check the ingredients many of their products contain SODIUM HYDROXIDE which is RELAXER. Everyone with relaxed hair should check every product they have for SODIUM HYDROXIDE it’s a very common ingredient.
Yay thankyou so much..
You're welcome! xo
Thank you so much for this! There’s not much information for relaxed hair these days. My head scarf has destroyed my edges lol, now I know for sure...
You're welcome! So happy for my sleep bonnet! xo
@@StyleDomination where can I purchase the sleep bonnet you mentioned? Please provide a link/ internet address
Try cream of nature detangling conditioner! I have super course hair (haven't relaxed yet) and it works wonders. I used this conditioner when I was relaxed as well :)
As far as detangler, have you tried Oliology 10-1? This is a product almost got rid of, because I used it on dry hair and it was a nightmare. However, one day I put it on my hair right out of the shower and it was like night and day. It has great slip, softens hair and it doesn't leave a greasy feeling. Love your channel!
“Mane and tail detangler” Is really good
I love that you run too! What are your tips for managing the sweat? I blow out and wash one a week and then low heat blow dry during the week after my runs and work outs. I’ve been thinking about trying A dry shampoo. Would really love for you to share your tips? Thank you
How did I miss this video when it came out?? Anywho, love the hair- looks like we're at the same length, yay us! 😆 I agree that ghd knows what they're doing with their flat irons. I have yet to find a clarifying shampoo that didn't strip my hair to the point of despair so I'll try the Paul Mitchell version. If you're still looking for a detangler, try Talijah Waajid leave-in detangler. I especially love using on my new growth
I find that Biotera's Ultra Moisturizing Leave-In Conditioner detangles my hair really well. It's very moisturizing.
Your hair is absolutely beautiful! How do you incorporate serums in your relaxed hair routine? I’ve watched several of your videos but haven’t seen the serum inclusion yet. Unless if serums are just not your thing😀
Love your content.
I agree with u with Shea moisture I felt like it was over hyped
That, or when they were bought out by a a bigger company they changed the ingredients.
Thank you so much!!
How often do you flat iron your hair??
And when you don’t, what do you do with it when there’s new growth coming in? That’s probably my biggest struggle with my hair haha.
Hi there, you are such a lovely person. Do you use any cream based moisturizers on your hair when you moisturize and seal? Thank you, ❤️
Pantene Leave-On Detangling Milk is awesome.
Yay! Thank you for this! I had to cut my hair into a shoulder length bob last week after my last touch up due to overprocessing. That was my first and last setback 🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾
Awww! Sorry to read that! I hope your hair is on the way to recovery!
What happened? Relaxed too early? Sat too long? Just curious
@@heatherj.2899 I had some areas that were under processed due to self relaxing during quarantine. When I went in for a touchup the stylist asked if I wanted those areas bone straight and foolishly I said yes🤦🏾♀️ I went from a thick BSL to shoulder length.
I tried everything from hard protein treatments to Olaplex treatments and nothing stopped my ends from thinning. I’m actually happy I cut it though, I’m loving the blunt bob. I was getting tired of having layers.
@@desiree4535 it will come back in no time, give it 6 months! Baby it, and it will be back stronger and longer. Its happened to all of us! ❤
@@heatherj.2899 thank you so much 🙏🏾 I know it will, especially since now I know to and not to do ❤️
Keep going!
Have you tried wen cleansing conditioner. I've used it for 2 years and my hair is so healthy and hydrated. If I need extra moisture I'll use joico moisture recovery treatment balm. Shea moisture miracle styler and lador wonder hail oil .( it contains keratin protein, it bonds and repairs damaged cuticle layer) turn up the heat, heat protectant
Mane tail has an amazing detangler. It helps me to stretch 12+weeks
Yes it’s amazing!
Try the mane and tail detangling spray!!! I swear by that product. I've been using it for years and it works great!!!!
Oh wonderful! Heading to Walmart soon and will pick it up!xo
Lovely thriving hair especially in the last year. How much do you attribute that to the quarantine and you quitting your job? Less manipulation, combing, less flat ironing. My employment has continued throughout the pandemic. It did affect my hair.
Hello beautiful, can you do a video with a written out calendar of your true hair regimen, including hiccups, if any? I have a routine but it is not real consistent. We use very similar products. We are tremendously blessed in the US to have so much access and probably way too many choices in hair products, it can be overwhelming.
Thanks for the update!! What’s the difference between like a hair mask and the deep conditioner you mentioned?
They are both the same. I think masks tend to be thicker, but deep conditioners can be like butter too!
Thank you for this video! I was wondering if you still incorporate the dyson airwrap into your routine and if you think it is safe for relaxed hair?
Yes! I use the Dyson regularly if I want voluminous textured hair. and it's most certainly great for relaxed hair. As it is really expensive, I encourage you to try one first before buying! They have a solid return policy though!
Your hair is really flourishing! As for detangler, have you tried It's a 10 leave in? I have used the silk express one for years. It's such a great detangler. I couldn't stop starring at your pretty necklace. Where is it from?
Thank you! I will look up those leave-ins. My necklace was gifted by Ana Luisa x Alyssa Beltempo!
Excellent, informative video! Have you considered trying the nutriplenish product line by Aveda? It's spectacular!
Any vitamin to help new growth stay straight for a while
Hair long and beautiful 🤩
Your hair looked really good when you were using the Joico moisture recovery line. Why did you stop using that?
I was doing so well and l had a set back also.... life lol
Would you need both a steampod & the GHD?
Another question (sorry for all the questions but I just loved this update!). For the Joico K Pak, I totally want that. I plan to buy it and try it this Sunday as I will be relaxing either next week or the week after. After 5 minutes then rinsing it out do you follow with a moisturizing DC?
No! No need. It is a deep conditioner!
Your hair is looking great! On an unrelated and random note, when is your sister Erika gonna feature in your video again? It’s been a while and it would be awesome to find out if she’s doing anything different with her hair these days...
A detangler that works for my thick hair is joyco moisture recovery
I’ve realised no matter how much alternative hair straighteners I use it still wrecks my hair so I just have to live with my rollers and a bit of texture . I think my hair just seems to dislike any hair straitners unfortunately
My edges been breaking off and I couldn't figure out why, I dont even use gel or edge control.i switched out my head scarf for bonnet, hoping my edges regrow
+1 gentleman within the group haha 😛
Hi, for a detangling leave in conditioner try Davines Oi all in one milk. It's protein free and a great detangler. Bit pricey though😖
I am all about that Davines life! Fantastic line! Will pick it up!
@shalifa kaddu I tried this line years ago and forgot all about it but I remember loving it. Do you have any other recommendations from this brand?
@@kalishajnz The all in one milk was my first purchase from Davines but the reviews for the the Davines OI oil are really good as well, some prefer it to the milk...that would be my next purchase from the line. Since I really love the milk.
@@fameousinthemaking Thanks, I'll give the oil a try.
Hmmm I need your next IG to be about normalizing how ever the heck you want to wear your hair!! I am tired of people talking to me about why I should be natural.....ugh. Great video! Are you still using Joicio?
Hahaha! I'll add it to the list! I only use the Joico K-Pak Lustrelock Treatment now.
Yes, i hate when people try to convince me "natural" is best for me! No, maybe for them. But I LOVE my relaxed hair. and to be honest, many should be adding a relaxer to that natural hair of theirs!
I forgot to ask, do you co-wash and if so what products do you use for that? I know you work out and you're a runner so wondering if you ever co-wash mid-week. Thanks!
I used to co-wash but it left my hair pretty gross. It felt greasy, weighed down and dull. It would get dirty faster too. I wash once a week now...twice a week in the summer when I'm running/working out and it's hot out!
Have you put your hair in braids before ?
I'm curious, was there a specific reason why you stopped using Joico shampoo/conditioner??...i remember you talking about Joico being your "ride or die"
I feel it had too much protein. I now only use once a month. The KPak Lustrelock still remains one of the best conditioners over ever used.
@@StyleDomination In your opinion, when is the best time to use Aphogee protein treatment...(a week) before or after a relaxer?
I tie my hair at night and nothing stays on. I just use satin pillow cases it’s better than nothing.
Whatever works! I use both! The satin pillowcases are great for your skin too. I have yet to find the perfect bonnet. And for ONCE IN MY LIFE, I'd like to look pretty when I go to bed! HAHAH
I use a silk pillow case too
Have you started dyeing your hair yet? I am always looking for color that is long lasting but not damaging to relaxed hair.
I was all set to go, and then we went into a lockdown! Hoping we reopen at the end of May as scheduled so I can get a relaxer and semi-permanent colour. L'Oreal sent me a wash in colour that I may try!
@@StyleDomination I have used garnier olio for years and love it no problem with my relaxer
What is your Hair type if you were natural?
Feeling so attacked but thankfully so 😩😂👍🏾 time to make some changes! ❤️
Please don't feel attacked! Just sharing info. Remember - I'm learning too!
@@StyleDomination hiiiii! Oh no sorry I just meant I needed to hear these updates and tips so thank you! ❤️ I stopped bleaching my relaxed hair, chopped off the fried parts and am regrowing it black (my natural colour). Am definitely getting that ghd platinum and putting down my straightener ☺️🙏🏾. Love you and your content! xo
Cat Woman!😂👍😘
My hair breaks off like crazy.
Am in the same boat but I found out it’s the iron🤦🏽♀️
@@butterfly9274 How do I relax my hair straight without over processing so I don't have to flat iron it.
@@kaygall4973 make sure the relaxer you,re using is right for your texture, my option is that you shouldn’t need to flat iron unless you want no body
