Something that I had to learn the hard way about my hair is that it is high porosity. This means that although it easily absorbs moisture, it also has the tendency to act like I never put any water on it about a day after applying a conditioner, cream or oil of some sort. Dry hair is one of the main causes of hair breakage. But after watching the videos that I listed and applying the tips, my hair has been able to hold moisture, pretty much from wash day to wash day (which is weekly for me”>. I simply wash my hair, deep condition it, apply the hair grease (as my sealant“> and dry it on low heat (my hair does better when it’s dried and stretched than moisturized on a daily basis”>. You might think that it would make my hair feel greasy, but it actually doesn’t. By the time I wake up the following day, it feels amazingly soft—from root to tip. And, it stays feeling that way for days on end. So, why do some people say that grease dries out your hair? It’s because they apply it once their hair is already dry. The problem with that is, since grease not only keeps moisture from getting out of your hair, but it also prevents any from getting in, you must apply it to wet hair. Otherwise, a brittle greasy mess is exactly what you’ll be dealing with.
The problem with that is, since grease not only keeps moisture from getting out of your hair, but it also prevents any from getting in, you must apply it to wet hair. When it comes to length retention, what my own natural hair journey continues to teach me is if you don t know your own hair s porosity, you re probably not going to get or keep the inches that you seek.
Walking through the bustling streets, one cannot help but be captivated by the sight of elaborately decorated storefronts.

Why did we stop using Blue Magic Grease? #38
Hair grease was traditionally used on our scalps during slavery but not to help grow our hair but to prevent being attacked by fleas and ticks when forcibly working long hours outdoors in the sun. This habit was therefore perpetuated and the knowledge of how to properly care for our strands was lost throughout the generations.
During the 00’s many naturalistas claimed that hair greases such as DAX , Ultra Sheen and Blue Magic filled with Petroleum Jelly (Petrolatum) and Mineral Oil (Paraffinum Liquidum) were extremely detrimental to hair growth. The theory behind this was, that when applied to the scalp hair grease would block hair follicles, which in turn would slow hair growth and prevent the scalp from breathing. Application to the hair strands was not viewed in the best light either, with claims that daily use could cause build-up consequently preventing hair from absorbing moisture and nutrients.
In recent years a few naturalistas now claim that this is not actually true for everyone and that most of us had long flowing natural tresses when our mothers were using grease to style our hair in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s. As much as this is true for a lot of us, we need to make the distinction between how often our mothers were styling our strands back in the day. Most hairstyles were made to last for a while and there was no daily application of product, this means we lived in protective hairstyles. Also lifestyle and diet choices were way healthier than today, making growing long hair much easier than it is today with the convenience of fast food and sedentary lifestyles.
In conclusion, you can use hair grease and pomades with mineral oil and petroleum jelly if it works for you. I can see how it would be amazing for high porosity hair if used right. It is one of the best sealants there is! Remember it has no nutritional value though, so layering other nourishing oils and products before application is extremely important. I would recommend using a good clarifying shampoo once a week and focus on the length of hair strands. Also remember to use a good moisturizer and oil underneath so you can lock moisture in.

And what about greasing your scalp? Eh. I don't use grease for that but some naturalistas sing its praises for soothing their scalp when they apply it on wash day. My take is to remember that your scalp is skin. If your skin doesn't show out when you apply Vaseline (which is also petroleum) then your scalp probably won't either. Still, I think it would be best to not apply grease to your scalp when your scalp is dry; seems like it would leave more residue than you are bargaining for if you do.
