Hair Care

Re: Hair Care

Mine’s wavy as well and the ‘easy’ thing to do is just gently blow dry it (it goes straight quite easily) but I like the way the ends curl up into ringlets when left alone..
If I had more time and patience I’d wear it in proper curls more often.. Khatti’s hair is gorgeous!! :wub:

Re: Hair Care

It’s this Moroccan oil hair mask..http://m.moroccanoil.com/product_detail.php?store=h_ca_en&product=217

It makes my hair feel soo soft and nourished. In vatika hair oil I use the olive oil one.

Re: Hair Care

Totally off topic, but just FYI, if anyone adheres to the BDS movement, the Moroccanoil line (bright turquoise packaging) is actually manufactured in Israel and is not in fact, a North African product. It contains very trace amounts of Argan oil.

Re: Hair Care

This is very interesting. The macadamia I use is very different from the picture you have here…are there 2 different kinds? I can’t post pictures here but here’s the link for the one I use:

For the castor oil, there’s a trick. Once you mix in all the oils including castor, you have to heat it up. Just for a couple of seconds. It’s supposed to be warm to touch but not burn you. Once it’s kinda warm, you’ll notice the oil mix is alot easier to work with :slight_smile:

Castor oil in its cold form is brilliant for growing out eyelashes too.

1-How many times do you wash hair per week?
Every other day.

2-What shampoo/conditioner do you use?
Marc Anthony sulphate free voluminous shampoo/conditioner

3-How many times you deep condition it?
When I go for a haircut, I normally add a conditioning treatment to it.

4-How many times a week you oil your hair and what oil?
I don’t. I have Argan Oil spray that I use sometimes if my hair is frizzy but that’s about it.

5-How many times a year you get the hair cut?
Every 3-4 months

6-Do you brush hair before going to sleep?
No. Is it good to do that? :hmmm:

7-How often do you apply hair mask and what kind of mask?
I don’t really feel the need to do this. My hair is Alhamdulillah silky, shiny, and healthy.

8-Recommend a good hair balm, serum etc
I got a sample for L’oreal professional mythic oil serum. It smells good and doesn’t weigh hair down. It’s good as a styling product to tame frizzy hair and add shine to hair.

Re: Hair Care

1-How many times do you wash hair per week?
3-4 times.

2-What shampoo/conditioner do you use?
I keep changing shampoos. I think after a while your hair sort of becomes immune to the shampoo you are using. Currently using sunsilk, was using finesse before that, loreal elvive before that, and gliss before that lol.
3-How many times you deep condition it?
Whats that.
4-How many times a week you oil your hair and what oil?
Most of the time I try to oil my hair before shampooing, even if I keep it on for just 5 mins. These days I amusing kalonji oil (black seed oil).

5-How many times a year you get the hair cut?
2-3 times.

6-Do you brush hair before going to sleep?
Nope.

7-How often do you apply hair mask and what kind of mask?
Maybe 3-4 times a motnh. Usually its just egg but sometimes I add yogurt and olive oil too.

8-Recommend a good hair balm, serum etc
Never used one.

Re: Hair Care

I defiantly recommend using a coconut oil hair mask it makes your hair amazingly smooth and soft. As for hair care it depends on you hair type try buying products that combat your issues if you have dry hair buy only moisturising products and products for dry/damaged hair. The argan oil is also great keep using that :)

Re: Hair Care

As i don’t like the mustard smell, i applied twice and left the full bottle there,would try almond oil with mustard oil. And Woah olive oil smells bad? :eek: never smelled it actually haha.
Last weekend, I tried lemon juice, olive oil, one egg and bit of milk, great hair mask.

Re: Hair Care

Does the L’Oreal Elvive Smooth-Intense Anti-Frizz Shampoo controls the frizz in your hair?

This one? LOréal Paris Elvive Smooth-Intense Anti-Frizz Shampoo 400ml - Boots

Re: Hair Care

I would try blow drying, what blow dryer you using? Also recommend a good Youtube tutorial so i can follow it. :blush:

Re: Hair Care

There are two types of this mask, guess i need to get the hydration one

Re: Hair Care

That’s true, i have seen it everywhere in salons and big shopping malls, i actually bought the small bottle of oil last month. :confused:

Re: Hair Care

Yeah the one i used is Macadamia oil shampoo and conditioner, this package.

I always apply warm oil in my hair, i have mixed different oils in a bottle, take it out ,heat it up before applying but when it comes to washing up, i make sure to shampoo three times so it goes all away. Or may be i should reduce the amount of castor oil next time.

I once tried on eye lashes but didn’t like it, felt my lashes got too greasy.

Re: Hair Care

Would look for L’oreal professional mythic oil serum , can we get it from boots?

2-3 times a week. If I am working out, then maybe more. Depends on how oily my hair is

Currently Alaffia’s Shea Moisturizing Shampoo/Conditioner For summer I sometimes use Dr Bronner’s peppermint shampoo (Its tingly and prefect for a hot day)

Once a week. I use the Phyto masks (Pretty good stuff)

**4. **How many times a week you oil your hair and what oil?

    Maybe 3-4 times. I trim my own hair. I follow the Lunar chart: Lunar Hair Cutting Chart 2025 – Morrocco Method International

Re: Hair Care

Yep, it’s the same one. I found that I had so much frizz before and since I live in a hotter climate, my hair used to puff up under the sun. After using this shampoo regularly, my hair is sleek when I go out in the sun.
