Hey Curl friends! A few Rinse out Condishes: Not your mother's naturals, Vo5, Suave, Love planet beauty, DIYs! The best silicone free formulas and cost effective! Thanks 🍯!
I remember trying to detangle once and a few strands in the front were in a committed relationship with strands in the back of my head. My worst detangling session ever.
😭 I’m waiting patiently to be able to wash , detangle and use a strengthening conditioner on my hair. We have gone through a lot this week with power and water outages in TX. I promise I’ll be gently once I get this hands in this hair. 🚿🙌🏽 I keep getting video suggestions for naturals not using water and I’m like how that’s the basics of a nice style ....detangling... the fro’s bestie🤭
Cali 😩 I’m so sorry to hear that! The TX outages are so terrible. Hun, I’m praying for you and your family. Please keep me updated on Patreon. I just sent you a private message ☹️ I hate to hear that you’re going through this. Sending prayers and good thoughts. ❤️❤️
My wash day is like a comforting process for me it's what relaxes me although it sometimes takes more time because I have bad arthritis the feeling of the wash and style is soothing to me.
It’s relaxing to me now as well. 😌 I’m sorry to hear about your arthritis. Do you find this easier to finger detangle or hold a detangling brush/comb. Sorry if it’s invasive, I’m just curious. My mom suffers from acute pain from time to time.
You need a tv show! You have a great personality, it will take you far in life! Btw I use the same conditioner. Works great for me. And my hair is pretty long. But I honestly think it’s the CareFree curl hold activator!😂😂😂
Excellent tips!! Water is so important for,our hair. A pre-poo that I fell in love with just after the fire time using it was the African Pride Pre-Shampoo. No cones, decent ingredients and not expensive. Walgreens will have it BOGO sometimes
@@LaToyaEbonyHair yes their Tea Tree Tingle shampoo and conditioner are an og staple! I love TJs too! Also I just discovered your channel recently and I have been binge watching your videos 😊
God bless you 4C gals. You all are super patient ❤❤. Im in the 4a realm, and it literally take me 1-2 min to detangle with just my shampoo. I would never detangle if it took any longer!!! You're so right about trimming. When I was transitioning, detangling was TERRIBLE; Took me 30min. Cut those ends off ladies so the straight ends dont tangle in the curl ends.
My advice would be to dry finger detangle a bit outside of the shower (or use oil), add some aloe Vera or a slippery prepoo and concentrate it on the roots. Let it sit, finger detangle (twist is optional) then continue with your wash day. You can use a Detangling brush too, but break through the tangles with your fingers first.
I absolutely loved all the points you made but the one that stuck out to me the most was the trimming point 7. Girl can I tell you my last wash Day was disaster bc I was lazy and didn't want to trim my hair the last time before. I know most people on type 4c hair (not trying to hair type) but for the sake of conversation say trimming stops hair length retention. What I've discovered is I need regular trimming to keep my hair growing healthy, long and in it's best shape. I put myself now on a trimming cycle and looking forward to the results
I’m learning about how important water is! I used to wait 3 weeks when I first went natural 6 years ago. I didn’t want to deal with wash day! However, I know better now so I do better. You are right! I have much less tangling and much less shedding! 👍🏽
Alsoooo the Cantu Avocado conditioner is rllyyyy good not only does it smell super good however it rlly gives you that good slip💋💋🖤 giving you that rlly hydrated hair🖤
Great tips on detangling. I think the most basic tip for detangling is how it's done i.e from the ends to the roots and also being gentle with the tools used for the process so as to avoid breakage.😃
Love this. I personally want to start washing my hair more. I usually leave in long term protective styles and have an intense detangling session after. But now I want to be comfortable wearing my hair out more.
I think so as well. Depression is so so real. I’m not gonna lie, being depressed and being asked to take care of your hair is sometimes too big an ask. I’m praying for her.
What I have started to do is simply re-moisturize my hair with water and add oil to my scalp at least twice a week, this way I don't have to go through a co-wash/wash and I can also detangle in the process...my hair have never been more alive
I like this. As a Texas girl, it's been a while and will be a little longer before I can get to a wash day. (My mantra: the pipes will thaw) I am planning the regimen. And I'm making sure it's a luxurious event.
One thing I like to do to get in the right mental space for wash day and detangling is watch some of my favorite natural hair influencers like you:) I love asmr wash day videos and another UA-camr zia Alexis made a wash day vibes playlist. She puts relaxing music in the videos and I swear videos like that make me so relaxed and ready to do my hair.
Giovanni Conditioner is very cheap if you buy the big bottles and they have so much slip, the more water you add to your hair while having this conditioner the more it foams and gives you more slip to aid with detangling.
I have been trying something new. Since I wash and deep condition my hair once a week, I decided to avoid unnecessary breakage by only detangling when deep conditioning and that involves using my fingers and a brush. So far its been working fine because to be honest my hair is left in chunky braids throughout the whole week (I tend to unravel them midweek to remoisturise but even then I only do light finger detangling). Basically wash day is when I focus on throughly detangling my hair. (I have fine, low porosity, low density, type 4 hair)
Trader Joe's Tea Tree Tangle Conditioner is great! I have type 4 hair. It works well if you're on a budget. I'm doing the 30 Day Detox rn, but that conditioner is GREAT!
CHEAPIE CONDITIONER: I have 4c hair -- from the dollar tree store I detangle with the Powerstick pure sulfate free conditioner and the Lusti argan oil leave in. I also use castor oil afterwards while my hair is still wet but that's not from the dollar tree store
We grew up saying dreadlocks, but in recent years I’ve seen an aversion to the word “dread” as in something you dread (negative). I personally haven’t come across anyone who has a problem with it, but online I have.
Hey Latoya! Great video! Thank you. Tip👏 number👏 four👏gave 👏me 👏 life! A coin literally dropped. Im guilty of complaining about.. why should I put myself through detangling than necessary, but I gotta say this tip makes sense. I've been meaning to incorporate co washing into my hair routine but I haven't, I just wash once every 2 weeks🙈 but I have seen the light and I'll be more gracious about doing my hair once a week, I don't want to look at my hair like its a chore, I genuinely love and appreciate my crown but damn she needs attention lol.
@@LaToyaEbonyHair sis you just made my day! Keep on doing what you're doing hun, your videos really do give me so much information and life, thanks to you I'm taking better care of my hair and I love this 4c goodness aka Zoey lol much love from South Africa 🇿🇦 ❤
I have spent a fortune in the last 1.5 years trying product after product. A fortune! So many oils! My hair does not seem to do well with oils, and I watched hours of youtube videos on all types of hair. I even tried to seal my hair with grease. No good. However, I don't want to throw anything out because my hair was transitioning and as my hair changes, something that didn't work in the past may work in the future. With that being said, I have high porosity hair, and live in a very dry climate (no one talks about climate's impact on hair???). I can take a shower and get fully drenched, and my hair is 80% dry within 20 minutes of getting out of the shower. TWENTY minutes!??? When my hair dries, it is HARD and tight like a prized fighter and crispy dry. What's worse is that my hair has different textures. It's 4c in the front and along edges, 4b hard waves on the sides, and then like 4a/3a on the top. So the same styling product doesn't work throughout. My point: adding pre-poo to my routine has been the best thing EVER. Even after doing a deep conditioner every week (with heat, without heat, all options) the soft results here don't last beyond a day unless I pre-poo. I use Atherna Cavier pre-shampoo, as my stylist carries the line. It's pricey, but it works. Love the tip about making the wash day a spa experience!!! I do rush on the detangling and I definitely lose patience when my wet hair has conditioner in it and still gets locked in a raised cuticle handcuff. Even when I gently massage the conditioner in to the ends to release the lock.....nothing. Perhaps I am using the wrong conditioner??????? Will bring in music on my next wash day. Thanks!
Hey hun! I have a few hair typing videos as well as a link to my website to all of my favorite products in the description box. Check out my playlists or my video list on my channel. It’s all there. Hope this helps!!

YAAAAASSSSSSS! I’m pinning this for everyone. Thank you!! ❤️
Rushing has broken soooo much of my hair in years past.
I know how you feel Jessica. Me too!🙈
I remember trying to detangle once and a few strands in the front were in a committed relationship with strands in the back of my head. My worst detangling session ever.
How’d she know that I was about to tackle my fro today?! I’ll promise to be patient while detangling
Same i just deep conditioning while watching this😄
Haha! Patience is key. Seriously, do or listen/watch something you enjoy. It really helps!
@@jadanelson4155 Yaasss!! 💃🏾
i literally brought a speaker and made a playlist for my wash days, because i absolutely love listening to music💗
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 YASS CHRISTINE! Might as well make it fun!

Same girl. This past week has been rough for self care.
Self care and a good relaxing Netflix day is needed as soon as I can get this hair washed and groceries delivered

Why thank you Lanisha! 🥰 I am gonna take that and put it out in the Universe. TV show for LaToya Ebony! 👏🏾🙌🏾❤️

Pride Pre-Shampoo. No cones, decent ingredients and not expensive. Walgreens will have it BOGO sometimes
Seeing wash day as self care/me time is a great mindset to adapt instead of looking at wash day as a daunting task. Great tips! Thanks for sharing!
You’re very welcome! In my opinion I had to make the mental shift because I’ve gotta wash my hair anyway lol!
@@LaToyaEbonyHair True lol
Trader Joe's Tea Tree Tingle conditioner is my all time favorite cheap conditioner. I can add oil to make it more moisturizing
Ooooo I used to use some products from Trader Joe’s. It tingled as well....I wonder if it was the same. 🤔 It was years ago. I love TJs!
@@LaToyaEbonyHair yes their Tea Tree Tingle shampoo and conditioner are an og staple! I love TJs too!
Also I just discovered your channel recently and I have been binge watching your videos 😊
I may try this! I used it and it was way to thin to detangle for me. But it like $3! Thanks for the tip!
I see you watching “Girlfriends” while doing your hair. One of my favorite shows. I watch videos on my wash days. Thank you for the tips!!!

Really needed this bc my hair has been tangling at the root! Pain, only pain 😂😂😓
I feeelllll u, Im so tender headed and my head hurts for a few days when I get done with matted roots 😔😂

This just came at the right time, I'm about to detangle my hair. Lovely video latoya🥰

Ok, I have comments. But first I want to say, thank you. For her tips and wisdom (and candor). 🤗
Love this video! Tips I’ll definitely use tomorrow
Hey LaToya! Glad you made this video bc a sis was struggling 😭 btw your makeup looks so pretty ✨
Hey girl I miss your UA-cam channel I’m following you back and I’m staying this time
Hey love! 👋🏾 Welcome back! ❤️
im on a 6 week no manipulation challenge and i pray that when march 25th hits...that i am able to detangle without breakage T_T
Make sure to use a leave in conditioner.
IM HERE, LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
Hi Nacole!! ❤️ Thanks for stopping by!
I always learn something on your channel....thank you! 💕
I've seen a positive response on some people using "Just for me pre-shampoo detangler" and the "African Pride pre- shampoo"
I noticed that in the comments of my Aloe Vera video. I’m definitely going to have to give that try once I’m off my AV kick lol!
It works well - that's how I start my wash day! And if it's late after detangling, I can leave my hair in twists and finish the next morning.
Thanks for the tips its helpful ❤🙏
You are so very welcome!
I think the garnier whole blends legendary olive conditioner is silicone free
Ooooo I’ll have to lol into that. Thank you for the tip!!
Thank You, very informative. Wash day quickly approaching 😫. Definitely taking your advice on detangling .👍🏽💕🌺

Im not sure if anyone else has asked this question but how often do you wash your hair?
Once a week. ☺️
Thank you.
You’re so very welcome! ❤️
Does the word 'dreadlock' have a negative connotation? 😐Because as Jamaican i haven't heard Rasta complain about it....unless I'm oblivious

It takes me two full movies to detangle. I really need some help.
👋🏾👋🏾👸🏾great video 😘😘😘
I need to trim mine but I don't trust myself with scissors in my hair so I need to schedule one with my mom.
Hi Latoya my hair is acorse hair type. I wanted to know if it's similar to 4c & I wanted to know what products I can use that work for my hair.
Hey hun! I have a few hair typing videos as well as a link to my website to all of my favorite products in the description box. Check out my playlists or my video list on my channel. It’s all there. Hope this helps!!
I will most definitely look into the videos. Your videos are very good by the way.
Sometimes I'm like I'm over it after I find a dred in the back 😒 can we talk about hair lint?
Omg that’s a good one! My sons hair gets that from time to time. Ugh!
@LaToya I love u but please buy a microphone
I have one and use it for every video. The problem is I don’t have the proper equipment to make it sound better. Actively working on it, though.
First!!!😀😀😘🥰
HEEEY VIVIANE!! 💃🏾💃🏾
I see you watching Girlfriends! My ultimate favorite show after Martin.
Haha! I saw it on Netflix I think. I never watched it when it was popular much. Now I’m trying to catch up lol!
I break they grow i break they grow.....
Number 4... two weeks and counting... ugh
Detangling tomorrow morning... 😢
