Yes. When non black people wanna change up their hair (straight, curly, wavy) it’s no problem, but when a black person does other black people call it self hate. I literally LOVE my Afro but lose curls will save me a lot of time and I think they’re super cute as well. It ain’t that deep
Yes because the majority of white people typically have straight curly, wavy hair.
How can you sit here and listen to this woman saying that @if black women (specifically) can get looser hair then it’s a win for us” and not ascribe it to bring against your natural texture and compare it to white people, who majority of them have the textures you described? The majority of black people do not. You people are being disengenous. And for those who only want to wear that texture you cannot deny it’s because of mental conditioning to view that hair as the ideal. If it weren’t why aren’t black men en masse trying to straighten their hair? Yes, some do, but you do not see them wearing wigs over their hair 24/7. This isn’t to say that black men don’t have gang ups about their hair texture, they definitely do, but you people need to be honest, because not having honesty when it comes to this topic means the black community will never progress regarding this hang up over their natural texture.
It is not a coincidence that in countries with close proximity to white people/have majority of white peoples or who were once colonized by them, a lot of them have been mentally conditioned to view their natural, afro texture as undesirable.
Personally I don’t care if someone wears wigs or does whatever to their hair, but y’all cannot act as if these two things are the same. And that the love for doing your hair this specific way at the cost of health comes from no where and just “wanting to do a different style”
It is NOT self hate! It takes A LOT of work to keep up with our texture hair and there is nothing wrong with wanting looser curls due to how manageable it is. AND if people want to go that route then they should voice their personal insecurities and tell me that it’s all due to self hate! It’s human nature to dislike something about yourself and that’s okay. What can you do to improve it and what will help YOUR self confidence? Let people talk and get upset because you have voiced a way for another woman to look and feel beautiful! Keep doing you ladies! F*ck the bs! Blessings to you all! 🦋💕💜
Thank you for this. As black women we should create a space where we are allowed to look and dress the way we want, with out intense scrutiny. If we can have open conversations about our hair and insecurities, we can come up with solutions. That is how new ideas and industries are fostered.
Unfortunately, in some cases it is self hate. But, that self hate just comes from society’s ill perceptions sometimes mostly and a lack of diversity in media, film, Fashion, and arts. And also false ideologies.
yall are all sad and pathetci
It does not take a lot. It’s self hate. Period. You change ur texture bc u hate it. If u straighten ur her that’s another thing but trying to change texture for the long term? SELF HATE IT IS!
@@alyssaharris4013 exaclty, i have my 4c that is hard to care for sometimes but its not IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOURE DOUNG. i wouldnt change it for the world, dont let the whites win smh they know they hate their 4c. yall did no research and didnt bother too because you hate your 4c period smf they keep making excuses whichc are colorist in themselves
I changed my hair from 4A/4B to 3A, I was straightening my hair every month or so without the use of a blow dryer, and just trying to straighten it as much as I could because I wanted my hair to be pin straight. Overtime my hair changed drastically from 4A/4B to 3A, but here's the the thing, when I chopped off all of my hair and stopped straightening my hair. My hair still grew out as 3A, even without any more heat being applied to my hair. Mind you, I've never had any relaxers on my hair, any treatments or anything like that. To this day after five years after having my big chop, my new growth for my hair today is still 3A and no matter what I do to my hair it has not gone back to 4A/4B. This for me has been a dream come true.
that’s impossible
@@AmalSaidi123 ok.
@@AmalSaidi123 anything is possible
Crazy enough, the same thing happened to my hair. I'm not really into the hair type system but I can tell that My curls changed after I was straightening my hair a lot for some time. It's really weird, but this is the second time this has happened when I was a natural first after a few years my hair texture also change. I blamed it on because that the fact that my hair was more hydrated and moisturized. But a lot can change your hair texture, age, medication, diet etc
how?
I hate how if you choose to loosen your curls it's seen as self hate in the natural haircare community
Yes! We are not all the same and we shouldn’t be put in one box. True acceptance/love is allowing yourself to be versatile without losing your self worth and values.
At the end of the day, this is also a way to control black women. We are black no matter what we do!
Its not a problem really. Its just because people know thats not its natural natural state like without product. But i think just about every hair texture can achieve that look if you do it right
@@shellyjohnson333 you cared enough to comment
@@shellyjohnson333 stfu and go cry in the corner somewhere 🙄
I feel like to change ur hair texture is odd. Cuz ppl keep saying type 4 hair is hard to manage but if u know how to take care of it it’s not hard at all. I just hate to see ppl put these chemicals in their hair like that cuz the majority who do it are black women. Nd I feel like those bad chemicals were purposely broadcasted to the black community. Also the excuse that it’s easier with looser curls I feel like is a lie black ppl tell themselves when they get texturizers to make it seem like the real reason isn’t what it is. The real reason in my opinion is that so many ppl hold so much value to loose curls Nd that bias way of thinking comes from this society that has an issue with texturism. I wish ppl in the black community could see that.
I was a straight natural since 2013 and always thought my curl pattern was 3b/3c. The last two years I went with no heat and chopped off my ends. Now I'm 4a/4b and adjusting to my actual texture. It grows quicker but gets tangled, and doesn't accept moisture as well.
My mom on the other hand, is a straight natural with 20 inches of wavy curls. So natural hair can grow with heat.
Yes, and there are different ways and methods to heat train.
I hope all is going well with your natural hair journey. try watching my sister jasso's videos if you need tips on keeping 4a/4b hair from tangling .
Also, thanks for sharing your experience!

I came here to say this! I was a straight natural until postpartum shedding took me out lol… I didn’t get stretch marks or gain any weight that I didn’t immediately lose with my pregnancies so I guess God said he’d snatch my edges instead. 😹 But I wasn’t done having babies so I started getting knotless braids consistently and when I finally took them out my new growth was 4c and it looked like I had relaxed ends! So I recently cut off all of the heat trained hair and now that I’m done having babies I’m starting over. My hair did EXTREMELY well for a straight natural living in Texas. Even with sweat it never completely reverted back to 4c. I used Janay Mickles method on UA-cam to straighten and pin curls and body wraps to keep it up. It would last up to 3w! Then I’d just put it in a loose ponytail or bun until wash day the 4th week or so. My hair grew like never before!
Why does she has wavy curls if she uses heat.
Even if someone doesn't like their texture it's no one's business. Everyone can do what they want
Yup you can, but acknowledge where the thought and the want comes from. It stems from self hating a part that comes from being black. It’s not the black communities fault. But the perpetuation is. And the delusion that comes from it.
How is it a “win” for black women to have a looser texture?
Would you also say the same if she was talking about skin blacking and skin color?
I so need this video. 4C hair is SO HARD to maintain

What did you end up doing?
some people doesn’t have time to detangle their hair everyday for 4 hours especially when the hair is really long
I FINALLY can confirm what happened to my hair! My hair didnt look heat damage AT ALL. It look evenly curly & moisturized with no frizz. It looked & even stayed healthy! So i thght maybe my hair texture changed naturally. I assumed it was from “the heat” years later but i wasnt sure cuz of the health of it. I was specifically looking for a video to give me answers & u did just that! Thank you for posting this!!! 🙌🏽
No, thank you for sharing! Our hair is so versatile and I wish more people would speak up! If more women speak about their experiences, we could do case studies and create a whole new industry!

I have 4c hair and really want loose curls to try some new styles with this really helped btw you are beautiful
Same 😩.
thank you! I am sure behind your account picture lies a beautiful face as well. There is nothing wrong with wanting looser curls, as well as loving your 4c curls. change is good.
Maybe take care of ur hair of u want the curls 4c curls r so beautiful look at latoya her hair is amazing
@@sassyqueen9739 I take care of my hair and always make sure to moisturize my hair does have looser and more defined curls now
@God's Daughter They weren’t attacking her.
My type 4 hair texture changed and became MUCH easier when I did moisturising hot oil treatments 3/4 time a week. It becone much lighter and easier to manage, and even slightly looser. This is what some somali, Arab and Asian women do when they are trying to grow out their hair, and it works like a dream 😍.
I really would want to know what is hot oil treatment
@@alicekal8506 look it up on UA-cam.
I believe that this could happen! I love hot oil treatments. The only question I would ask is if you rinse it out. This could be a problem because black women do not wash there hair everyday( or every other day). Thanks for sharing. Hopefully it can help those looking for alternatives in the comment section.
@@DynamicTouch hey, some black women do, especially if they r muslim...It will mean that we are having to be more proactive with our hair, and get more used to looking after it like other races do during the week. But your hair texture will change, become more manageable, shiny and even grow faster, god willing. Yes, it's more high maintenance but it gets u great results much faster. Just let it rest in between.
@@alicekal8506 hey a good moisturising one is avacado oil, olive oil, caster oil with peppermint oil.... the one that grew my hair quite quickly in the past,( a clear difference in 4 weeks), was simply caster oil and peppermint oil. This is also enough sis. If u put it in an applicator bottle and warm it in a container of hot water. ♥️
The caster oil hot oil treatment will grow your hair even if u use it once a week, but if u want texture change do it more than that and add a penetrating oil. ♥️
People just want more manageable hair and as beautiful as black hair is it is usually not manageable even if you get it soft there is alot of work to get it styled especially if your hair is kinky, thick and you have sensitive scalp plus aren't talented with combing it in various hairstyles. I started using henna recently and am thinking of using it to loosen my curl pattern as I am aware my hair will be much easier to manage and take less time to style, wash and do overall.
Thank you for understanding. I still have really curly hair, it’s just looser now. It’s easier to manage. I originally did this as an experiment, but now I’m probably not going back to my regular routine. This routine makes my hair Way easier to deal with. 😂
@@DynamicTouch I totally get it my hair has been so hard to comb from was a child as it's very thick, long and curly it would break combs and brushes the women around me had similar hair but could not manage theirs either so they resorted to cutting it off or keeping it low, in high school I processed it went back natural and its difficult to style still. I have watched countless youtube natural hair videos but it's just not my forte. I totally get where you are coming from.
I don’t understand why so many black women use that as an excuse. “It’s not manageable” it is if u know what ur doing. What were black ppl doing for hundreds of years when texturizers weren’t a thing? They made it work Nd they did it well. Their hair was healthy. Nd now we have this toxic chemical that damages hair Nd it’s sad how many black women are using it. We were given the features we have for a reason. I don’t believe we would be given something that we couldn’t handle.
@@zarinahmensah1610 It is not manageable if it were people would not struggle with it whether or not you want to believe that. Not only is it hard to manage whether it's styling, combing, etc it is complicated and takes a lot to look a certain way it comes in a lot of textures and people often have several textures on their head which reacts differently, your hair even though you take care of it can stop growing to certain lengths because it tangles a lot, it takes tedious amounts of time to untangle so it doesn't break then you have to deal with high porosity and low porosity with all of that to figure out what works for you. Is the hair beautiful yes but it is very hard to manage and very high maintenance and to say otherwise is fictitious. You can't just go to bed run your hand through it and go on about your business and repeat.
@@DynamicTouch I get what you are saying completely. My hair was natural for the majority of my childhood and teenage years and it was very difficult to handle it was until I permed it became manageable. I am natural now once more and it is difficult to manage however a bit easier now that I have learned certain techniques to deal with it but there are days when even that is not enough so thank goodness for braids, cornrows etc going to invest in several headband wigs though as that seems easier.
It does seem like Type 3 hair and to some extent, 4A hair is the standard of beautiful hair in the natural community. Type 4 mainly gets praised when it's long, especially 4b and 4c.
4A??? 😂 you mean 3B right??? 🤣🤣 you’re delusional.
This is heat damage, but heat damage does not mean your hair is not equivalent to damage! This is an effective way to loosen it up lmaooo. Glad it was consistent and not patchy for you. It looks cute!
When I tell you my hair was looking like the Gina curl! That’s how effective it was at loosening up my texture. I was shocked that it could happen. Mind you, at the time I was contemplating getting a consultation for the Gina curl, but then I DIY’d it 😂. Now my goal is just trying to replicate it and make it possible to be done over and over again if desired. It is cute but it’s hard dealing with two textures. Thanks for stopping by!
@@DynamicTouch Yes, girl go you. I feel like since this is gradual your hair will be healthier overall, as opposed to the Gina curl. ☺️🖤
When I got heat damage my hair was just so dry and wavy. I'm wondering if after heat damage, I could have wrapped my hair around curlers and used something like Olaplex to rebuild a curl. I ended just cutting the heat damage off.
@@kmj2000 see, personally, if I had heat damage, and I wanted my curls back I would have went and gotten a perm/Gina curl to revive my curls. It was probably dry because your hair shaft because porous. Which means you have to treat your hair like high porosity hair, which I have naturally!
@@DynamicTouch I'm confused. Did you not say you were angry that you lost your fro at first? But now you're saying you were considering the gina curl? Sounds like you just wanted to loosen your curl pattern by any means necessary.
“am i doing this due to self hate?… THE ANSWERS NO!!!!” 😭 that was hilarious
lol! I knew that question was coming. I had to address the elephant in the room. Thanks for subscribing!

It would have been best to get to the point,and actually be able to give us precise info.The thumbnail is misleading.We thought you already achieved this.We were not looking for an experiment.
Hi sariah, I achieved it once by accident. Now I am conducting an experiment to replicate these results using different methods. So far it’s going great! I would like to complete this process before recommending anything to anyone. Also, my title says hair experiment ep. 1. If you stick around it might be worthwhile. Or you could go get a keratin treatment or curly perm and it will do the job instantaneously if that is what you are looking for. Ep 3 will be coming out soon. Thanks for stopping by. we truly appreciate every comment and productive conversation.

The same thing happened to me. When I started college I wore my hair straight all the time and when I started wearing it curly again the curls were looser and had way less shrinkage. Now I can use a paddle brush in the shower and I don't have to section my hair into 4 parts, just 2.
Sis! thank you! You got what I’m trying to say! I'm glad others are giving there testimonies. Thank you for sharing!
I love that 😂😂😂
Baby that’s heat damage
@@briannaowens9339 😭😭🤣🤣 its the way you said it LOL
@@anastasiaz7784 like is she slow? Duh its easier to manage its heat damage😂
This is what happened to my moms hair her hair was 4B/4C and she got it cut off and started wearing wigs a lot and it got super long like it was down her back. Then she started getting a lot of blowouts and her hair type changed to 3B and now she wants her original curl back.
I totally understand your mom! Usually heat altered hair is hard to deal with because it doesn’t define easily and your hair is fragile! Trust me when I say if my wash days were not easier I would probably want my original curls back as well. What does she plan to do next? Will she slowly cut away her ends or does she plan to big chop?
@@DynamicTouch she's planning on slowly cutting her ends because she wants to keep her length.
Dreadlocks too I believe. My hair was like a 4b/4c thing too when I didn’t have dreads. After dreads my hair got softer and he curls look more prelevant
@@loopymomy2532 My son's hair texture changed after cutting off his dreads too! I was like, "huh?" Curl pattern totalllyy loosened
@@MzChevious1 Yup its because your hair was able to grow and stay and lengthen and not break down. That helps your hair to loosen up.
This is interesting . When I had the big chop I assumed my hair would be 4b but then I noticed more curls coming out when my hair grew longer. Some of my curls are even weighing down and look 3c. I never did a silk press before. I think my hair is gonna be 4a/4b
yes, I noticed the longer your hair gets, the more weighed down or "looser" your curl looks. It is also possible to have multiple textures as well so maybe your curl pattern will be more than one.

So you say... we should get heat damage?
If you would like to see the condition of my hair during that time, please look at the split ender pro video. There is nothing wrong with using heat to alter your curl and from that video, you can see that my hair was still healthy. If you would like to see my hair after I chopped it off to start again, please view the video title “can’t afford a headband wig....” and if you would like to see what controlled heat damage looks like, check out ep. 3 that I just put out.
As long as my hair is growing and prospering, that’s all that matters. Also, if you are just interested in regular haircare, my sister has waist length natural hair and can help with that.

The key is to do what you want to your hair while it’s wet. You can get any texture you want that way, but use the right products. It’s so 😎
That bun was everything. I too chopped my hair alot over the years. It took me years to learn how to care for MY hair. My biggest failure was detangling. Its so tedious and i believe that would lead to the cutting because cutting it allowed it to be manageable. It was then i learned. I needed patience to take the time and be observant of what my hair was telling me. I am so overwhelmed now with the encouragement i get when i see the growth, strength, moistured, and hydration of my hair. It really is a self discipline and self dedication when u have a regime u stick too. If its not broke dont fix it.
I TRIED IT AND IT LITERALLY WORKED
Heres how:
Okay so background:
My hair is (or Was) 4c, very thick as i have been growing it protective style using grease
How I did it:
I decided to try being heat trained, so I bought a titanium flat iron, heat protectant and silk therapy.
Washed my hair and applied the products, used a heat straightening brush to blow out my hair. Got it real straight. Went in with the flat iron at 450 i think (idk why i maxxed out, my hair literally smelled so burnt, so don’t do what i did) i did a few passes in some areas, idk why, i was moving reckless.
I then went back in with more passes to give it some curls. Then i put a plastic bag over my head and slept w bonnet on top. Woke up the next day and somehow water got into my plastic bag (idk why…) so i woke up with fluffy hair. Washed it a few days later and used aussie curly conditioner. Thought my hair was done for but i seen my pattern and it was wayy looser. I actually wore it in a wash and go bc the curls were actually stretched out and didnt shrink as much as it used to.
My hair looks soo cool now. It’s 4b with 4a in some areas ( and some 4c in the area that got water in it ) I’m gonna be careful because i do not want to actually severely damage my hair.
But yeah thank you dynamic touch for making this video. Its a super cool experiment that I am glad i tried. I just need to find out how to keep my curls consistent.
update: yall, back when i first commented this a year ago i was wylin and burnt my hair fr, its been one year and a lot of the looser curls in my hair fell out lol, but i been wearin wigs and doing protective styles so its grown back a bit, but now my hair is uneven cuz of the burnt loose curls. i still have straight strands in my hair from last year and ion wanna cut it or my hairs finna be short short, but yea guys dont do what i did, follow what the girl said in the comment below. i think ima do heat training but ONE PASS and slowly as dynamic touch suggested. to be really raw and honest ion like my 4c hair bro its tough, im tryna get 3b 😴😴
Hi @Bethany,
Here at Dynamic Touch, we discourage rapid results for long term success with heat training. This is due to the fact that the faster the curl pattern is altered, the more likely an individual will experience negative effects. This is why I chose to cut my hair 2 years ago to go on this natural hair experiment even though I had not experienced breakage during that time (my hair was growing, I was able to retain length, I did not have split ends, but how it was done was not replicable, nor effective for long term success).
Please take a look at my current videos that compare my hair before (When my hair was heat trained all at once) vs. Now (my hair is heat trained over the course of 2 years).
Here is the link to that video: ua-cam.com/video/9Lzh0aL9tBw/v-deo.html
Please take the time to watch this in order to see the difference.
I wanted to develop a safe way of heat training that could be applied to many women, that was slow, safe, and effective with little to no negative effects. My goal was also for women to see incredible strides with length retention while heat training in order for women to choose this way of styling hair instead of other harmful chemicals.
I wanted to go as slowly and as safely as possible. It actually took me almost 1 year to start seeing major changes in my curl pattern this time around. This ensures the likelihood of length retention. This is also one of the major reasons why our program is not 7 days, or 21 days, or even 60 days. It’s a one-year program to ensure the best results and to give each person a strong foundation in the basics. A strong foundation will lead to extreme length retention and growth 2,3, 4 and even 5+ years down the line.
There is also the issue of managing two textures/patterns, which also comes with altered curls. If not navigated correctly, this can also lead to extreme breakage and major setbacks within 3 months and onward from when the curls were initially altered/loosened.
That is why we encourage the use of our program at thewaitingroomnhb.com. Our program is something that has never been seen before.
Still, we wish you well with your individual hair journey. As always, we do offer resources on our site, feel free to look into those as well. We will also continue to develop and create new resources for those who are heat trained or choose to wear their hair in a straightened state. We will keep you posted via UA-cam, so feel free to stay with us for more interesting, new resources.
Thank you for commenting and sharing your story!
Wishing you the best, Dynamic Touch
@@DynamicTouch Wow, I saw this comment and just felt the need to come explain why this wasn’t safe and to be careful but you’re actually educating people in the comments! Amazing! You officially have a new subscriber!
Please be VERY!! careful with this. I did something similar to this (silk press). I had long 4c hair and had the same experience like her, the only difference was, as my real hair texture started coming in, the existing one eventual began falling out. I was forced to do the big chop and i think if she was really honest with yall, she wouldve told yall of a similar experience, hence the reason for her "BIG CHOP"
I did not have the same experience as you, although I can empathize with your experience.
My sister built my routine with longevity in mind. when your
hair routine is built with the intention to keep your hair as healthy as possible, for a long as possible, it births different results.
In fact, one of my biggest unexpected struggles were single strands knots! that's how healthy my hair was!
If you would like to see If I am telling the truth stayed tuned to my video coming this week. I will be coming out with my one year update later this week talking about my experience, showing my growth, what I learned, setbacks, etc.

I an going to be using heat in my journey. Just not high heat. The stretching helps me manage my hair better.
... this.... is heat damage.
Currently my hair is growing and prospering. I will be posting ep. 3 soon. There is a difference between heat training and heat damage. Please stay tuned for it and thanks for stopping by. :)
@@DynamicTouch From a biology perspective there really isn’t though. Heat damages the proteins within your hair causing the proteins to lose their shape hence the reason why your hair texture changed. Heat training is heat damage. Your results look good so don’t take this as an insult.
@@kara1782 True! I’m actually altering the disulfide bonds found within the hair strand. Every time you wash your hair you are also breaking and restructuring the disulfide bounds. My curls still have bounce and elasticity due to the fact that I do protein treatments regularly as seen in my episode 2. Don’t worry this is constructive criticism! I will never take this as an offense. This time I am altering my hair very slowly and monitoring my hair. I am currently editing ep. 3 which is my 6 month progress. Please stay tuned if you are interested. I actually got on camera this time. 😂
@@DynamicTouch You should try subliminals and the law of attraction. It changed my hair from 4b/4c to 3c/4a in 3 months.

If your hair naturally responds to heat like that and it works for you, I say just run with it. From one individual to the next, hair varies and behaves differently so you'll find some naturals with heat-altered hair that looks and thrives beautifully without even needing to be babied.
Yes, some hair naturally does well with heat, while other do not. Over the course last couple of years while I was heat training, I believe that most people will need to "baby" or be careful with their hair do to the fact that most people are heat training from their homes. This shifts the dynamics because with at home haircare, there is more room for negligence and error, which most professionals would not make. So, moving with caution at first is best.
Thank you for your honesty and vulnerability 😊🙏🏾✨
No, thank you for stopping by 🥰 we honestly need to start a conversation about these types of things. If more research was done, it could start a whole new industry.

that's what happened to mines , I was happy because my hair was flat and my curls were looser .
Exactly! this happens more often than not. Did you end up using a protein treatment to help strengthen your hair? did you experience more shedding? or was it healthy like mine?

I don’t hate myself, I just like the way looser curls look on me lol 🤷🏾♀️
Thank you and that's just fine. People can't seem to grasps simple concepts like this and AUTOMATICALLY ASSUME "oh you hate yourself! Why do you hate 4c?" As if that was said. Wild...Black women/people can't do anything with other Black women/people whining about it.
Edit: Specifically when it comes to hair. Like it's not your hair so why are you triggered?? 🤦🏾♀️it's just hair

I wonder if your texture “changed “ because you took care of your hair differently , let me just explain.So I had cut my hair about a year ago and some change and when I first started taking care of my hair it wasn’t dry anymore and my curls started to come through a lot more than they did before .Nit only were the protein treatments , conditioning treatments , oils and twisting my hair ( and leaving it that way for a while ) were helping my hair but it was also defining my curls .When your hair isn’t healthy and it’s dry , you hair can sort of appear to be 4b or 4c which is probably because your hair is dry and not as healthy as it could be.So personally I think that heat training might work, but HONESTLY I’m thinking that because you started to take care of your hair , it became healthier and more hydrated and oily.Just remember that finer textured hair also tends to have a lot more moisture and oil in it , so it’s not just straighter or looser , but it’s also less dry and frizzy.
I’m not saying that you did this but it’s a high possibility that your hair did what mine did.I also stopped taking care of my hair after a while just to see why or how and I honestly think it was bc of how much I was hydrating and training my curls .
I see where you’re coming from but there is a clear distinction in my case. I have been natural most of my life, so I already knew everything about how my hair behaves in its natural state. My curl pattern is the same as my sister (who has waist length natural hair.) You can see her texture in her review of coco black naturals hair gel.
I knew my hair had changed when I went to revert my curls after my sister had pressed my hair and it did not revert immediately. Keep in mind, this is a few years prior to my hair experiment (which I am currently conducting now). It took a couple of washes and babying my hair for it to result in a texture that was 3b-3c. I also had no clue how to take care of this new texture at the time, so I just kept my hair in braids. What you mentioned above could be the case for many women who are just discovering how to take care of their natural hair. So if anyone sees this comment, it wouldn’t hurt to try assessing your hair as the commenter has stated.
I agree with you. I started using the TGIN honey milk leaving in conditioner and their honey mask, and apart from regular hot oil treatments, this is the only thing that's making my hair show its curls. My hair texture is way more defined...
I also found a black hair specialist on Instagram, and he made a comment about how before slavery when u look at the history is wasn't normal for our hair to be referred to as frizzy, brittle, dry, or even kinky. He also mentioned that the white people would refer to our hair as soft wool, and it was normal for us to have nice soft hair as Africans... I guess we are all unlearning bad hair habits and finding more natural beauty ♥️

Your hair pattern naturally changes as your hair gets longer, it’s called gravity. No hair product or technique can beat gravity.
Well based on these comments, I guess I’m in the minority in terms of my opinion about this. If you are considering doing this, please don’t. I know everyone’s experiences are different, but in my experience, I did something similar to this and it’s the worst thing I could’ve done for my hair. Y’all can do what you want, just I’m seriously encouraging y’all not to do this. It was MUCH more difficult to care for my hair when I used to do this than it is now, healthy and in its natural state. If this worked well for you, then good for you. But this is seriously not gonna be good for your hair in the long run. And I honestly don’t want to hear anyone say “well it’s not my hair, why should I care.” I care cuz I don’t don’t want anyone to experience what I experienced.
What did she put in her hair exactly? She taking to long too get to the point 😅
My hair went from 4c to 3c/4a and i didn't even know how I don't even use heat (actually my mum blow dries my hair but only once every 3 months)
I really want to change my 4c hair texture as a 13 old girl it’s so hard managing my 4c/4b hair I watch hair tutorials and everything it’s just so hard
I know the feeling! Growing up, my mom kept my hair in braids, so that helped a lot. Don't feel discouraged! wishing you the best.
Same 🥺🥺 people who understand .. finally
me too girl!
i manage mine just by twisting and detangiling once a week so you can do it you just have to find the time

GUYS HENNA IS THE ONE!!!!😆😆😆😆i have 3B/3C and I have applied henna on my hair like 3 times and I SWEAR BY IT if you try it once your hair will become looser, my curl pattern changed to 2c/3A I wouldn’t recommend doing it a lot though if you don’t want it to completely loosen your hair, it can also be drying😀😀
Interchanging or adding Amla will put back the curls.
Yes, henna can also help to elongate the curls. Henna kind of reminds me of an tribe in Africa that uses red clay to keep their hair styled. Hmmm 🤔 let me write down henna on my experiment list.
Wat is henna?
@@Kingda2_ it’s an all natural powder, that’s used for henna designs on your arms or hand, ITS AMAZING😩
@@DynamicTouch YASS girl try it it’s amazing😩and I think your talking about a tribe in Chad that use Chebe powder
I wonder if all the people cheering this video on and acting like these thoughts don’t come from being self hating would sit here and cheer on if she was talking about skin bleaching and skin colour in the same way she speaks on afro hair.
“It’s a win for black women if they had a looser texture”
Would you also cheer if she was talking about skin colour? I can bet 100% not.
I need this cuz the top of my hair is like 4a and the back is 4c and the difference just looks like damage when its not

What is the time stamp where she explains HOW instead of explaining why?
Why do black women struggle so much with loving their own 4c hair ?
I actually have 4B hair. I have been natural most of my life and have never found my hair to be ugly or inferior to others. I also would like to point out that straight 4 textured hair is not like any other hair; it is textured and uniquely beautiful. That’s why we all love a good Kinky Straight or Yaki. Not all hair is altered due to self hate; sometimes life, kids, work, school, will be more important then our hair in that moment. Sometimes I just need a break. White women with curly/thick hair often feel the same as well.
I like keeping my hair straight for now. It fits my current lifestyle and it’s much easier than my weave/wig routine. I'm pretty sure later in life I will want and love to have a pixie cut and that is ok. This is life.
c’est la vie
Who says she hates her hair? Nobody has time to spend 10 hours weekly on washing their hair. And no, 10 hour is not an exaggeration if you want to detangle your hair properly.
Why do SOME black women struggle with loving their 4c hair, however? I don't know, years of bullying and others telling them that they should try this and that on their hair like there's something wrong with 4c hair might have something to do with it. 🤔
Saying that you have 4b hair instead of 4c hair isn't an excuse . You still changed your hair texture.

What treatment did you continue with because I hate type 4 hair
There is no such thing as heat training, it's just heat damage
I have 3c 4a 4b hair that is healthy and virgin. I have had heat damage that caused me to cut waist length hair off. I also had color damage. For me the heat damaged hair was expensive because I was trying to fix it because the hair pattern was uneven. The color damaged hair was easy to manage but so delicate that it broke off all the time so I was continually treating it so I understand the comment when she said it isn’t easier than your natural pattern. I did like my natural pattern but after seeing how much work the damaged hair was, when I got my healthy hair back, I learned to actually appreciate it. I don’t think a lot of people dislike themselves but I think they don’t appreciate healthy hair until they struggle with unhealthy hair.
I fully agree! You constantly have to over protect your hair due to the damage. Any small mistake can lead to your hair easily breaking off.
With my natural pattern, I didn't have to do half the things that are in my current routine. Your experience is my exact experience until my sister took over my routine.
thanks for sharing your experience and commenting. I am learning so much from comments like yours.

I have 4a hair and I want 3c to manage better I’m really rough and impatient with my hair and get frustrated, I love my hair but damn I just want easy management lol I’m lazy
Actually heat trained hair is more fragile, so you have to be more careful and gentler . As your new growth comes in, it is imperative to use gentle techniques to avoid breakage. other than that the actual detangling, shampooing and conditioning process is a breeze.
@@DynamicTouch I know That, I was saying I’m rougher and Impatient with my type 4 hair because it’s more frustrating but if I had 3c I wouldn’t be as frustrated and less rough

Felt all thisssss I'm try this let you know how works !! 💪🏼❤️
Does it work?
I understand it may be for research, but girl, youre Fearfully And Wonderfully Made! (Psalms 139:14) Although It May seem challenging with a thicker Hair Type, your Hair Is Gorgeous In Its Natural State!
I have actually been natural 99% of my life. I do not have any difficulties dealing with my natural texture/pattern, nor do I have toxic thoughts/self-hating thoughts about my hair. I have actually grown my hair long while fully natural. but I see where you are coming from.
This experiment has truly allowed me to learn that natural hair is very versatile, more than then we thought and more than what is showcased by western society.
Please check out my playlist to see my full journey.
At our brand, TheWaitingRoomNHB, we focus on Christ centered haircare, although all are welcomed.
Women who might be struggling with their hair go into TheWaitingRoomNHB, and come out with a totally different view of their hair. Heat training is not just about changing one's curl pattern, it's much deeper than that.
We have provided women with a heat conscious approach, as well as promote hair independence, due to the fact that 75% of hairstylists can't be bothered with 4 textured hair, especially long 4 textured hair like I have.
It's having a full appreciation of your hair in every state, without having to compromise the health of your body with toxic chemicals. We are canceling self-hate in the name of Jesus!
Thank you for your comment and thank you for stopping by.
Lol This kinda happened to me too. On accident tho. I only fired it one time with titanium plates, and my hair texture changed. It’s soft ALL the time, and I got more hang time. I have 3c/4a /4b hair and I kinda just let me hair do whatever it wants to now. I- I gave up fighting with this new head of hair. And my new growth is like that too so I think I just I don’t know stretch my hair.. to a stage that is not altered or damaged..idk lol it’s weird!
Yes, our experiences are so similar. Your hair ends up a mixture of patterns plus hang time. Thank you for sharing.

Late to the party, however HEAT IS A CHEMICAL.
Chemical or heat ; it doesn’t matter. It’s doing the same things to the hair. One is just more damage than the other.
True, But it's controlled damage. I will be coming out with my one year update later this week talking about my experience, showing my growth, what I learned, setbacks, etc.
My sister built my routine with longevity in mind. when your
hair routine is built with the intention to keep your hair as healthy as possible, for a long as possible, it births different results.

This happened to me too. I was scared but mine went from 4c to 4a. I didn't really use heat.
Thanks for sharing! I am always interested in hearing other experiences! Were you able to retain length or did your hair break off? Do you wear your hair straight or curly? I would love to know.
The title of your videos are nice but the content is not giving. Not sure why can’t you get to the point of how you changed your texture.
i had a sew in with a leave out and when i took it out and washed my hair my leave out curl pattern is so much different and loose now from the rest of my hair
Thanks for sharing! This happens to a lot of black women as well and I am sure their hair doesn't fall out. I also just learned that black women have been using Dominican blow out to heat train as well.

Love the things you said because I really love my curl pattern but it’s very time consuming and I have extremely thick hair so to slick it back takes more product and then it’s like it’s not healthy to wash ur hair to much so my wash days on Saturday. And basically I’m in high school so say I put my hair in a bun for the week there product on it every day, which makes detangling and washing long and then more product can cause acne so I’d love to use less and then it would be nice to be able to go out and not have to overly protect my hair from water because (shrinkage) there’s so much more I could add on I’d just say don’t think we want hair changes out of hate pplsss it’s just for convince 😩
I agree, when your hair is heat trained, you end up using way less product. If you use too much product, it will just slide off the hair strands and onto your clothes (I’m speaking from experience.)
Concerning slicking down 4a-4c hair:
Normally when it comes to slicking 4a-4c hair down, it is usually more about technique then about product. With the right technique, you can use less product and get great results. Seeing that you are still in high school, have you tried to incorporate more braided styles? Not necessarily braids with extensions, but braided styles like the one I showcased in the video “Can’t afford a headbang wig? Try this instead.” This hairstyle is cute, versatile, and most important not time consuming. you wouldn’t have to worry about shrinkage. After 2 weeks of wearing this hairstyle, you can then take the half wig off, carefully unravel the braid in the back, and wear the back in a cute, stretched braid out (While keeping the braids in the front intact).

If you’re are too scared to try this… give the maximum hydration method a try. Look it up on UA-cam.
I think it’s better and safer
I, at one point also wanted to try this but was scared to get Hygral fatigue. The results that some of the women on UA-cam have achieved with the maximum hydration method looks amazing though. I hope this can help other women looking for heatless options. Thanks for recommending!

Olaplex heats with heat damage. They have a patent bond rebuilding technology so severe heat damage can be fixed. You won't get 4c hair back but like she said 3c or 3b/a. Trying to do the new growth the same way would get annoying after awhile like she admitted
Hi! Alot of people believe that Olaplex is the key to heat training, but I don't believe it is for all people, including myself.
Heat training is not as simple as one might think, there is many ways of going about it. There are so many variations to heat training. The type of heat training I do focuses on maintaining the curl integrity for as long as possible by using heat conscious methods developed by thewaitingroomnhb.com. (Some women do not care for their curls and that's ok as well. That is their form of heat training).
Please check out my heat training journey playlist to see what I am referring to.

I actually now know proper techniques when dealing with two textures. I even created a hair serum called The New Growth Softener Serum to help black women easily deal with this. It was made with 4 textured hair at the forefront, not as an afterthought! Thus, women have been raving that it helps to keep straight hair from breaking (even for those who are not heat trained and just want to wear their hair straightened with a flat iron.). It will be launching soon, stay tuned!
I have even managed to keep my hair straight for two months without re-flat ironing it! We are changing the game on this channel!
Thanks for commenting and stopping by our channel!
My dear also tried this pattern without chemicals in my hair . I notices a big different . So glad I’m seeing this . Keep it up. All the best . 😊🥂🔔🔔😘😘
Girl, what exactly did you do? You keep saying treatment. What treatment?
I’m experimenting with my hair to prove that it is possible to alter your curl pattern without chemicals. I was able to successfully do this for one year and achieve a 3b-3c texture. My curls stayed the same and were alive. and then I cut my hair to do a documentary of this process on UA-cam. I have my second episode up if you want to check it out. I plan to do updates every couple of months. this is to show black women there is another alternative out there.
@@DynamicTouch You didn't answer her question tho.
The word I was saying was experiment. Not treatment. Also, it’s a long procedure so it would be better to follow along with my vlog then to explain it in the comment section. hope this helps! 🥰
To make it more clear I didn’t apply any treatment (as in chemicals) to my hair.
@@DynamicTouch them what did you apply
I just recently did the big chop too. So if I use heat on my hair it won’t damage it but loosen the curls? How often should I be applying heat? And what kind of heat (blow dryer or straightener) How soon should I expect to see results?
Hi, I waited 6-7 months after cutting my hair to start heat training. With heat training, you still have to deal with your natural hair, so I would use that time to master your original hair texture before attempting to heat training. With heat training, you will be dealing with multiple textures until you stop. Results vary for everyone, I am 9 months in and my curls are pretty much looser and intact (between 3c -4A). Concerning how much heat I am using, I will be addressing it very soon. Please subscribe if you are interested.
Also, my hair is not only looser, but it behaves differently. It’s easier to comb through, takes faster to treatments, and now I don’t think I will ever go back to my regular routine. 😂 it’s spoiled me and made me lazy.

Funny, I never thought about doing this even though my mom has been a straight natural for over 10yrs and her hair grown so fast literally down her back & so thick. When it’s wet it reverts as if she doesn’t straighten her hair. I’m gonna get into this. Don’t be ashamed for what works for you!
yes! that's what I am experiencing right now! my curl pattern is 3c on the bottom and 4 textured at the roots, but besides that my hair is pretty much the same. Thank you for sharing that your mom has done it for 10 years.

Yes I am following you in this journey. 😊😘
I really wish you would call a thing a thing and just say you don't like your texture. Being honest would give space to type 4 girls to not be ashamed of real feelings ab the challenges we face. You are doing an entire experiment to alter your hair texture. It's okay to not like your texture (time consuming, products, expensive, shrinkage, etc.).
Hello Mrs. Miller, I just wanted to give you a little background about me. I have spent 90% of my life wearing my natural hair. Growing up, I wasn't allowed to wear weaves, wigs, and even braiding hair. All I could work with was the hair on my head. The only time I ever relaxed my hair was when I was 7 and a flower girl in a bridal party and this women forced me to relax my hair in order to be as "Beautiful" as the other girls. I actually really love my hair texture because I know my hair like the back of my hand. I know everything about my hair and how to grow it to where it needs to be, thanks to years of educating myself, my sister jasso teaching me (She has waist long hair) and using hair techniques that are passed down from my mothers tribe in Liberia. The reason that I decided to go on this experiment was because of things like the Gina curl and the wave nouveau. I want black women who would like to change their hair texture to be able to do this without compromising their health, without having to deal with systems where we are being exploited for thousands of dollars, and most importantly, be able to use this technique from the comfort of their home. This also includes learning and mastering your original hair texture in the process. Information is power, and I want black women and girls to be empowered, no matter what they choose to do with their hair.
Thank you for your comment and thanks for stopping by our channel we appreciate it. If you would also like to learn how to take care of your natural hair without change, my sister jasso has waist length hair and has worked with others on growing their natural hair.

I have the same hair type and i want loose curls too.
What products did you use to get your hair to type 3 curls?
It’s not Simply about the products, but more about your approach and what exactly you can do to get there. I plan on speaking more on this later. Also keep in mind that I’m still in the experimental phase.

Hi can you list the products you used to change your curl pattern bc I was thinking about texturizing and perming my 4c hair should I do it or not I heard sometimes there chemicals and it can damage your hair but I’ve been wanting 3b hair for awhile and was wondering how to change my hair type permanently
I have 4a and 4b and since my hair is almost down to my waste I’ve noticed the curl pattern have loosened. Is that normal?
Hi Niecy! Yes, it's normal for your hair to be weighed down by the added length from growth (the cause of your loosened curl). If you continue growing your hair pass waist length, it will only increase with time. Loosening from weight of the hair is also exaggerated once your hair has been under water.

So you used heat damage to loosen your curl pattern?
Yes, but I call it "controlled damage". It is similar to the damage that occurs when someone relaxes or texlaxes their hair, just without chemicals. I am currently editing a video explaining my heat training journey. If you are interested in learning more about the topic of heat training please subscribe. It will be out tomorrow.
Thank You for your question!

did you also have a heat protectant in your hair when you did the process?
Any regular drugstore heat protectant is fine. I've tried a $30 heat protectant and it is literally a scam, lol. I do not heat train with grease, but I have heard of women who do.
Quick tip #1: Do not rush when you are doing heat training! I have gotten a lot of comments recently saying that I am encouraging women to flat iron their hair every day, this couldn’t be further from the truth! We encourage heat conscious haircare. It’s always best to take your time. Slow and steady wins the race. Feel free to check out my playlist to get an idea of how my routine has changed.
ua-cam.com/play/PLSMRYEyKi74gocIP6sAO-jrgwWBEc__Q7.html
Quick tip #2: Find what works for you. There is a lot of information and different ways to heat train, just like there are a lot of ways to be natural. Find what works best for your hair and your lifestyle. Think outside the box and get creative!
If you need help on where to start, check out our beginner flat iron manual! It will whip your skills into shape! Flat ironing is not something that comes naturally to everyday people, it is one of the things that gives our clients a lot of trouble due to the fact that the everyday person is not a hairstylist, and black women do not flat iron their hair as often as other groups of women. Just like handling a curling iron can be daunting, learning to properly use a flat iron can be as well. Click the link below if you are interested!

Hope this helps! Would love to hear how it works out for you! Best of Luck!
Ladies one trip to the Dominicans can help you achieve a looser curl! You're welcome!
Depending on the person, your hair might get ripped out though.
Yes I’m going after 2 years of not straightening my hair.
Dominicans will leave u bald.....jus sayin🤷🏽♀️
Should add a PSA that their hair will also be gone 😂
LMFAOOOOO
You say it’s self hate but you are here watching the video? 🤔
Basically you got heat damage and it’s now loose......
Please check out my winter 2022 curl update or my 1-year heat training experience video. This video is very old and is not a good representation of what my hair looks like today. I am a heat trained natural who was able to loosen my curls through heat training. If you look at my winter 2022 curl update video, you can see that I do not have heat damage.

I have 4c hair and I really want those 3c curls this will be really helpful
I have 3c curls now, and besides my wash day being easier, it's not that much different from 4c hair. I have a video coming out with comparison photos and my one year heat training experience, so if you are interested please stay tuned.
thank you for stopping by our channel.

Heat Damage.... This isn't anything new....
Heat damage hair that is long, healthy, and maintains a curl is though.
If you would like to see how short my hair was when I began, please check out my "cant afford a headband wig? try this half wig instead" My hair has grown so much since then.
@@DynamicTouch Heat damage just simply means your curls are damaged by the heat and they are no longer as tight...Does not mean that your hair short or broken off... There are tons of videos on this already...This is nothing new especially for black Americans.

@@nekitah.7602 Facts lol people have been doing this forever. Aaliyah, Kenya Moore, etc
Press and curl is still natural too!
I agree! Unfortunately, with the rise of the natural hair movement it is seen as a mostly negative hairstyle choice by some individuals. I wish it wasn't this way.
@@DynamicTouch no matter how “the natural hair care community sees it, the fact remains, if there are no chemicals in one’s hair, it’s natural hair. Take it from a cosmetologist and cosmetology teacher.
does this still work if I currently have 3b hair and want to make it 3a?
Good morning!
I believe that it would work, unfortunately we only work with women who have type 4 hair for the time being. We have yet to expand to women with type 3 hair, although many women who have this curl pattern have asked. In the future if we expand, we will notify these women via our website www.thewaitingroomnhb.com
Thank you for commenting, stopping by and also for taking interest!
I really want to knw what hair treatments did you use?? And did you continue straightening after you started the treatment???
For my specific hair treatments, I used a protein treatment. It’s not Simply about the products or treatments though, but more about your approach and what exactly you can do to get there. I plan on speaking more on this later. Also keep in mind that I’m still in the experimental phase.
Yes, I actually have continued to flat iron my hair for the past 10 months. I plan to give an update soon.
