Hey guys!
Since I made my “How to Get Long Healthy Shiny Hair” Haircare routine video, a lot of you guys have been asking for an updated one. I have changed or remixed some of the products that I use, since I feel like im a LOT more educated now on whats good for my hair and what isnt. A lot of the products are the same, theyve just been “supercharged” with extra ingredients to make them even more beneficial for my hair and its growth.
Please watch my previous haircare routine video which I will link here –> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cODPEPENdLc <-- In this video, I go more into detail of what you should be doing in and out of the shower, how to comb your hair properly, etc etc. since I havent dont that in this video, check out that video first and then come back to this video for the product change
You have to remember that healthy hair and skin is largely due to what we put INSIDE our body as well as the products that we use. Your hair is like a flower.. flowers need sun, soil and water to grow.. and thats the same as our hair; it needs proper nutrition care and water to grow!! So grab your glass of water as your reading this or watching this video and drink lots of it while the video is going on!
Step one to HEALTHY gorgeous hair .. Drink LOTS OF WATER!!! Our bodies are made of mostly water, so skip the Soda at your meals, skip the juice with the unnecessary sugars and grab a nice cold glass of milk. When I’m having a meal, I prefer to drink room temperature water, since if there is any oils in my meal, the water wont play any part in solidifying the oil (i also like to drink green tea with my meals nice and warm so it can diminish all the bad oils that could be in my food). Throughout the day however, I like to drink a nice cold glass of ICE WATER! Water is so beneficial in every way! Not only is drinking water good for our hair and skin, but ICE COLD water throughout the day also helps your body burn calories! REALLY! Your body has to work harder to bring the water back to body temperature.. so drink some ice water for your hair and healthy lifestyle!
I also have a Vitamins for healthy hair growth video.. This video goes into detail of the HEALTHY things we should be ingesting for healthy hair growth, nail growth and skin! Check out the video here —-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAgvWrAzAjs
Now lets talk about the products that I use in my hair
Starting off in the shower..
In my first Haircare video, i talked about Matrix Sleek Look Shampoo.. I ADORED that shampoo! .. that was until recently, they changed their formula! BOO on them for changing the formula I was so disappointed! The shampoo was absolutely NOT the same anymore and I was on the hunt for a new shampoo! I knew I was going to risk the sulfates in my hair for a shampoo that I didnt even like!
For those of you who dont know, sulfates are not good for your hair as they can cause your hair to fall and for me, they caused tender headed-ness. For those of you who are suffering from lots of hair falling issues, try switching to a shampoo that is sulfate free.
If you have the money to spend (I know I dont) then the Alterna Bamboo Luminous Shine Shampoo ($24 at Sephora for 250mL) is a really nice shampoo which makes your shiny and strong.. but at that price.. with my hair length.. I would have gone broke! If you have shorter hair and you have the money to spend on this shampoo.. then this is a great alternative!
For me though.. I found the DUPE for the Matrix Sleek Look .. but with NO SULFATES! YAYYY!!! The new shampoo that im using is the Matrix colorcaretherapie delicate care shampoo Im in LOVE with this shampoo! First off, lets talk about the price.. its about $24 for a 1L bottle.. thats 4 times as much as the shampoo I mentioned earlier! Second.. this shampoo has argan oil and acai berry in it, so I feel like it really gives my hair the moisture that it needs, without being too heavy. I know it says that its a color care shampoo for colored hair, and I know I dont have colored hair, but it doesnt matter if you have colored hair or not, you can always use a shampoo thats directed towards colored hair. All that means is that the shampoo is going to be more delicate on your hair anyways so thats a bonus!
As far as conditioner goes, I dont use a conditioner in the shower. That is just my preference. I feel like when I use a conditioner in the shower, my hair is weighed down and super flat when it dries.
Speaking of conditioner, the conditioner that I use is the same as my previous hair care routine. It is the Rusk Smoother PassionFlower and Aloe Texturizing conditioner. I LOVE this conditioner. It gives great texture to your hair, without weighing it down it makes your hair really soft and shiny and conditioned with NO fly aways and frizz and as an added bonus, it has sunscreen in it to protect ur hair from the sun! I cannot say any more Great things about the conditioner.. its just SO amazing. This conditioner makes your hair look super beachy or super sleek.. depending on what style you want to go for. I LOVE IT!
As a deep conditioner, I still like to use my ALMOND OIL. Ive just started remixing my almond oil to make it supercharged almond oil! To my almond oil, ill add a few drops of peppermint (peppermint stimulates circulation on your scalp and helps your hair grow longer faster) and the almond oil nourishes your hair. I use this treatment about once a week or once every two weeks. I have a video on how I make the mixture and how I apply it here —-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GFHiNQjvCM
A lot of you have asked if I still use the rosewater treatment i showed here —> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWkwurYKpO4
YES i do still use that treatment, however, its usually whenever I have the time to find some roses and make some and store it.. Lately though, since Ive been lazy and looking for something quicker and easier, I use Rosemary essential oil mixed with water as a leave in spray to my roots. I dont have a video on this, but if you would like to see one.. leave a comment
and ill make it for you.. its SUPER easy!
Last but not least, Whenever I have the almond oil in my hair, I like to do a treatment along with it to remove the buildup on my scalp. This is my Apple Cider Vinegar Treatment. I do this treatment as often as I think my hair needs it, but i usually stick to once a week or whenever im washing the almond oil out. There are shampoos and treatments that you can buy pre-made to remove build up, but I like to make my own since i know its organic and its much cheaper! I have a video on the rinse that I use in my hair here —-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZebSmWtThw
Thats about it for my hair care routine. I will be doing a “timeline” sort of video to show you guys what I do each day of the week so you guys get a better understanding of how to use each of the products/treatments that I mentioned. Also, a lot of you have asked for a “hair washing” tutorial, im still trying to figure out how to film that.. once i do, ill have it up for you.
I hope you guys enjoyed all the info!

Besos! <3

Hi Farah,
I’ve been watching your haircare routines both here and on YouTube. Thank you for the wonderful information!!
I cannot find the Biolage Colorcaretherapie Delicate Care Shampoo anywhere. I was wondering if they discontinued it. They have another formula, also named Colorcaretherapie by Biolage, but it is full of sulfates. Do you have any other shampoo recommendations? The $24 one at Sephora is out of my price range.
Also -in reference to the apple cider vinegar treatment: With a one year old running around, I have no time to make tea for my hair! What would the ratios be for water, apple cider vinegar, and maybe chamomile essential oil? I am blonde but not naturally. Any suggestions would be so helpful! Thank you

Hi Farah,
Love watching all your videos on beauty! You do a great job at making them and I get excited to see your next new one. Can you please do a video on the rosemary and water video. I know it is easy but I want to make sure I’m doing it right. Also how often would you recommend putting this potion into your hair? Do you only do it when you wash your hair? Is it on damp hair? Or do you do it everyday?
You have the most beautiful hair I’ve ever seen. Totally love that you’ve never dyed it before either!!!
It was inspirational to hear that your genes aren’t everything. i hope you are right because that means with time, love and patience I can have hair half as good as yours!
xoxoxoxo

Hi!!
I love your videos! they are so helpful and I love that all your methods are natural and inexpensive! I am obsessed with taking care of my skin and hair so I love looking for insight in others! I have a question the shampoo and leave in conditioner you use, does it work for curly hair too? Because I have curly hair as well! I looking for a new method of taking care of my hair, and I want it to grow long and healthy. My hair is naturally curly and at least half way down my back but I feel like my hair is not growing anymore, as if it hit a limit and it wont grow. I might be impatient but I was hoping you could give me some tips on how to maintain my curly hair healthy and beautiful and growing voluminously. Most of the hair care videos I see are people with straight hair; therefore I am not sure if the same methods would work on my hair.
Please respond to my comment
Thank you
You are amazing keep doing videos! they are truly insightful
Hello gorgeous! I just wanted to know where you brought your sulfate-free shampoo from, because I looked online and the ones I found had sulfate!
PLEASE DO A TIMELINE VIDEO!!!!
I finaly found the shampoo and the conditionnner and the protector thermique. But, the website can’t send in my land. I should buy one by one those different product in different websites, so the price is very expensive for the expedition (for exemple : 26€ the shampoo 15€ the expédition etc for every website). Can you advise me ONE website with ALL product? Thank you

Hi, I was just wondering where I can buy all these products at
Apple Cider Vinegar, Rosemary Essential oil and Vitamin E. I know that I can order them online but is there anywhere that would sell it so I can just go pick them up instead of waiting for it to be sent home to me?

I love ur hair and I have pretty much same length please help me out with this shampoo thing and also please tell me where can I get the oils any Internet site or anything else………. I love ur hair and skin and u also looks excellent in whatever u do and wear……….. Please please help me out
Hi.. Just wanted to say I came across your you tube site last night and watched tons of videos for 2 hours straight. I thought they were great and ran out to buy the ginger stuff for my mom, the eye cream stuff and the rosemary….now before I continue I want to state again that I enjoy your tutorials and won’t let my first experiment discourage me….I tried to make the rosemary for conditioning my hair…. I bought rosemary essential oil ..added maybe a little more than 10-12 drops…and OMG!…you never mentioned the intense smell…. After 10 minutes while letting it cool to put in spray bottle I had to dump it…. It was too powerful a smell…. My husband who never complains of smells couldn’t take it….it’s 30 degrees outside but had to open the windows to let out the smell…after an hour it finally started to clear out of my house….I’m trying the vitamin e/primrose cream tonight , like I said, not discouraged from trying your remedies……thanks
Hi Farah…i really like your tutorials n they are a real help…could you tell me how long does the rosemary conditioner last…
Hey Farah…as u suggested in your tutorials that neem oil is very good for dandruff and preventing pre mature greying..is it good if i mix almond oil, coconut oil, castor oil and neem oil n apply it to my hair…n could you pretty please also do a tutorial on beach waves without heat…..
Hey Farah….i have an oily scalp n sort of normal to dry hair which is also thin n fine…could you please suggest me a shampoo that might suit my hair n is also available in india…as everything is not available here…after using conditioner i notice that my hair looks limp and dead..could you also suggest another alternative instead of the condotioner…thank you so much…
Hii farah…. I jus luv ur videos n follow them as far as i can
I wanted 2 ask whether i should tie my hair or leave them untied while sleeping? Thanks a lot…
