1. 0:00So, these are the ingredients that
2. 0:02everybody everybody should have in their
3. 0:05hair care toolkit. Now, the ingredients
4. 0:09obviously you're not going to have as
5. 0:10individual ingredients, but you should
6. 0:12have them in your topical treatments. If
7. 0:14you do not have them, then throw your
8. 0:16whole hair care routine away.
9. 0:19Like, because it's not hair care, it's
10. 0:21hair styling. And that's okay. In that
11. 0:23case, don't throw it away. But throw it
12. 0:25away. Okay? So, let me tell you
13. 0:26something. If you don't know, I am 100%
14. 0:30the ambassador of skin care for your
15. 0:33scalp. Okay? You need to treat your
16. 0:35scalp the same way you treat your face
17. 0:37so that you can have thick, long,
18. 0:39beautiful hair. Not like me because
19. 0:41these are K tips, but I do have pretty
20. 0:44decent hair that I grew back after
21. 0:45losing it in 2019. I'll try to insert P.
22. 0:49So, all that to say, let's go into the
23. 0:51video so that I can keep it short, under
24. 0:5415 minutes. We'll try. So, first things
25. 0:56first is you want to have nycinomide.
26. 0:58Nyioinamide, I know it's a skin care
27. 1:00product. It's like big in skin care. I
28. 1:03use it every single day in my SPF, but
29. 1:06why it's really good for your scalp is
30. 1:08because it's going to strengthen your
31. 1:09scalp's barrier and it's going to reduce
32. 1:11irritation. So, why that's important is
33. 1:14because it's going to balance oil
34. 1:15production on your scalp. Why do you
35. 1:17care about that? Because the more oil,
36. 1:19the more sebum that you produce, the
37. 1:21more you clog those follicles. The more
38. 1:23those follicles are clogged, the more
39. 1:25you compromise the health of your hair
40. 1:27and you start to do things like actually
41. 1:29shed excessively or shed prematurely.
42. 1:32Okay, I know it's crazy. Anyway, so you
43. 1:35can use it maybe three times a week in
44. 1:37an essence. I do have an essence that I
45. 1:39recommended in a previous video. I'll
46. 1:41try to find it. Or like in a scalp
47. 1:43tonic, you can do that. There are some
48. 1:45hair loss serums that have nioinamide in
49. 1:49them. If they're smart, they would make
50. 1:50sure they put niacinomide in them. So
51. 1:52there are hair loss serums. Now I'm not
52. 1:54sure if the ordinary multipeptide has
53. 1:56that. Yeah, whatever. But you want to
54. 1:58apply it directly to the scalp
55. 1:59especially when you are wearing a
56. 2:01protective style. I call it a
57. 2:03unprotective style because they're not
58. 2:05protective. But you know just for the
59. 2:07sake of point you guys know what I mean.
60. 2:09So yeah. Now how does it work? How does
61. 2:11nioinamide do to all this? Well, it's
62. 2:13going to improve keratin synthesis. It's
63. 2:16going to boost blood circulation on the
64. 2:18scalp. It's going to calm and reduce any
65. 2:20type of redness that you have. And there
66. 2:22are clinical studies that confirm the
67. 2:24efficacy of nioinamide directly on the
68. 2:26scalp. Because of all this, what does
69. 2:28this mean in English? It can actually
70. 2:30thicken hair because it's going to
71. 2:32really just enhance the barrier function
72. 2:34of your scalp. Anyway, the next one is
73. 2:37salicylic acid. Salicylic acid is a beta
74. 2:41hydroxy acid aka a BHA aka a clinical
75. 2:45exfoliant. It's or clinical exfol
76. 2:48exfoliator. is going to be very
77. 2:50important because salicylic acid on your
78. 2:52scalp is going to unclog your follicles,
79. 2:54dissolve product buildup, and it's going
80. 2:56to reduce flakiness. Now, we all know
81. 2:57that we can benefit from all of this,
82. 2:59right? And no, please do not use the St.
83. 3:01Ives apricot scrub on your scalp. No.
84. 3:04Like, and I know no one uses St. I
85. 3:06knives no more. I'm dating myself. Yes,
86. 3:07I'm that old. But the point and the
87. 3:09blank and the period is that you don't
88. 3:11want to use a physical exfoliator.
89. 3:13Physical exfoliator are things that have
90. 3:15those micro beads or micro sensations
91. 3:18like sugar scrubs or anything that you
92. 3:20can feel it kind of doing. That's going
93. 3:22to create micro tears which can open up
94. 3:24room for infection, inflammation, and
95. 3:27overgrowth of bacteria on the scalp. So,
96. 3:30you want to use this about once or twice
97. 3:31a week as a shampoo or scalp treatment.
98. 3:34Like I said, there are some hair growth
99. 3:36serums that also have salicylic acid in
100. 3:39them that has them in them if they're
101. 3:41smart, but also you can just go ahead
102. 3:44and get you, you know, one of those
103. 3:46pre-shampoos or medicated cleansers that
104. 3:48has them in them. So, just look for, you
105. 3:51know, a scalp treatment or a shampoo or
106. 3:54whatever with salicylic acid in it.
107. 3:56Okay. Oh, and just so you know how it
108. 3:58works, it's working because it's
109. 4:00breaking down the oil plugs and it's
110. 4:02going to dissolve that dead skin that's
111. 4:03on your scalp and it's going to reduce
112. 4:05things like dandruff and seberm. So
113. 4:08those flakes that y'all see that y'all
114. 4:09scratching off with a comb and a fork,
115. 4:11please stop cuz this is not it's not
116. 4:14doing anything for you at all. So the
117. 4:16next thing that's very important, you
118. 4:18know, and I'll include at the end the
119. 4:20products that have these some products
120. 4:22that have these in them just so you guys
121. 4:24don't cheat and leave. you know, I need
122. 4:26to, you know, you got to pay for the
123. 4:28cow. You know what I'm saying? You can't
124. 4:29just come and get what you want and
125. 4:30leave. So, subscribe. The next thing
126. 4:32that's very important to have is
127. 4:33peptides/ amino acids. So, this is
128. 4:36important because these amino acids are
129. 4:39these compounds that are going to
130. 4:40strengthen or rebuild bonds in your
131. 4:43hair. Now, I have a whole lot of videos
132. 4:44on bond repair products. I'm not going
133. 4:46to talk about that here. I'm trying to
134. 4:48keep this video short and I'm already
135. 4:49failing. But the point is these are very
136. 4:52important for strengthening your hair
137. 4:53and for just pretty much repairing the
138. 4:56hair. Okay, that's what you want. So
139. 4:58there short chains of protein amino
140. 5:01acids that mimics the natural hair and
141. 5:03that's called biomimetic. They're
142. 5:05mimicking your natural hairs, you know,
143. 5:07amino acids and those are really good
144. 5:09for pretty much allowing the hair to be
145. 5:11fortified and to create more amino acids
146. 5:13and more building blocks. So you want to
147. 5:16add and you also want the body to create
148. 5:18more. Those are two ways of doing it.
149. 5:20And that's very important. All bond
150. 5:22repairs. That's what I meant to say. Not
151. 5:24all peptides are bond repairs, but all
152. 5:26bond repairs are amino acids and
153. 5:28peptides. I I meant to say that. Okay.
154. 5:31But whatever. Um, but I can't break that
155. 5:34down in this video. So, you want to use
156. 5:36this at least once a week for
157. 5:38maintenance. Well, once a week for
158. 5:40maintenance or, you know, up to six
159. 5:41time. Listen to the manufacturer. Pick
160. 5:43the one that you want. The way that it
161. 5:45works, obviously, is going to fill in
162. 5:46the gaps of the cuticles. is going to
163. 5:48increase elasticity to reduce breakage
164. 5:51and it works a lot deeper when it comes
165. 5:53to like the shaft and the cuticle and
166. 5:55the cortex of the hair. But I'm not
167. 5:56going into all that tea right now. All I
168. 5:58want you to know is that everybody needs
169. 6:01amino acids/eptides
170. 6:03in their hair care product so that you
171. 6:05can actually strengthen and rebuild your
172. 6:07hair. Okay? Especially if you deal with
173. 6:09a lot of heat damage and color damage.
174. 6:11Next, ceramides. Ceramides are very very
175. 6:14important because they're going to
176. 6:15restore the hair barrier. the the same
177. 6:17way ceramides repair restore the skin
178. 6:20barrier, it's locking in moisture and
179. 6:22it's improving elasticity. Pretty much
180. 6:24what it's doing is like these are lipids
181. 6:26that are essentially acting like glue
182. 6:28and between the hair cuticle cells. So,
183. 6:31they're literally making sure that you
184. 6:33know when you have curly hair and you
185. 6:34have that nice little thick piece of
186. 6:36curl that you got to separate, ceramides
187. 6:38are going to be perfect for that. That's
188. 6:40why you want to use a lot of
189. 6:41moisturizing creams or cream curlers
190. 6:44when you're trying to accomplish that
191. 6:46type of clumpy curl look, right? So,
192. 6:48you're going to use these ceramides.
193. 6:50They're going to help you to make sure
194. 6:52that you don't have a lot of protein
195. 6:54loss in the hair. Essentially, you want
196. 6:56your curls to curl. You want them to be
197. 6:59nice. You want your whatever your hair
198. 7:01texture is, you want the the most
199. 7:03buoyancy, and you're going to get that
200. 7:05out of your ceramides. So ceramides is
201. 7:07very very important again to keep the
202. 7:09flexibility in colortreated hair
203. 7:11especially ceramides are important for
204. 7:13women with high paracity hair. The next
205. 7:15thing is caffeine and zinc. Caffeine and
206. 7:18zinc these are really good. Caffeine I
207. 7:20think is the dopest thing that anyone
208. 7:22can have in their product. It serves as
209. 7:24a booster a boosting agent right so it's
210. 7:26going to boost the efficacy of whatever
211. 7:28the product is. So let's say you use
212. 7:29minoxidil you add caffeine to that
213. 7:31minoxidil is going to boost the efficacy
214. 7:34of the minoxidil. So whatever the the
215. 7:36benefits are of minoxidil, caffeine is
216. 7:38going to enhance that times too. It's
217. 7:40powerful. It's also powerful in the fact
218. 7:42that it's going to stimulate the
219. 7:43follicles and it's going to support
220. 7:46scalp health. And zinc is going to
221. 7:47regulate oil and reduce inflammation. So
222. 7:50these two are powerful individually, but
223. 7:53they're even better together. You want
224. 7:55these to be in a serum. You want them to
225. 7:58be in a shampoo that you can use maybe
226. 8:00once a week. But honestly, me, I like to
227. 8:04take them in a supplement. But that's
228. 8:06not this video. I'm talking about
229. 8:08topical. But if you really want the
230. 8:10boosting effects of how, you know,
231. 8:12caffeine could penetrate the follicles
232. 8:14and how it blocks DHT, which is linked
233. 8:16to hair loss, and how the zinc can
234. 8:19pretty much calm the sebocacious
235. 8:20activity that's causing scalp
236. 8:22irritation. You want to take it as an
237. 8:24oral. That's my opinion. Oh my gosh. 11.
238. 8:26I'm sorry. I'm rushing because I'm
239. 8:28trying to make my videos shorter. So,
240. 8:30let's quick recap ladies or and gens and
241. 8:33baddies. Nioinomide is going to be great
242. 8:35for your scalp barrier. The salicylic
243. 8:37acid is going to reduce the flaking and
244. 8:40make sure that it really exfoliates your
245. 8:42scalp. The peptides are powerful for
246. 8:45strength. Like I said, all bond repairs
247. 8:47are peptides. Not all peptides are bond
248. 8:50repair, but that's not this video.
249. 8:52Camides for elasticity and caffeine and
250. 8:55zinc for shedding or to stop hair
251. 8:58shedding. And they all have different
252. 9:00ways of doing this. These are the top
253. 9:02ingredients that you should have. I
254. 9:03mean, these are the essentials. There
255. 9:05are more. There are more. Trust me, if
256. 9:07you watch me, there are more, but these
257. 9:09are the essentials. If you don't have
258. 9:11these basic ingredients in your everyday
259. 9:14or every week essentials for your hair
260. 9:16care, you're not you're not you're not
261. 9:17really hair caring. You're not. It's a
262. 9:19whole placebo effect. And I'm sorry to
263. 9:21tell you, and I'm sorry you had to find
264. 9:22out that way. Anyway, I love you
265. 9:23baddies. Let me know if you want me to
266. 9:25do more um you know hair care
267. 9:27ingredients that you should have in your
