I'm the dad of a nine-year-old daughter, and you, as well as a few others on youtube, have taught me how to put flexi-rods in her hair. And she's thrilled about how beautiful and bouncy her hair is. Thanks!
Anthony KaDarrell Thigpen awesome dad!!
@@SlayinCrystals , IKR? 😊
You are a great dad, congratulations.
well done
Now that's a dad!!
i don't even know how people dare to come for black hair.
we have freaking magical hair. wtf man..
slay me queen
💖
Yakari Gabriel I've always envied black hair. It's gorgeous natural & holds various styles amazingly! These curls on her are beyond stunning! I only wish mine could look like that... Anyone that has something bad to say about this hair is a moron. So glad to have found this tutorial. Great job! 😊💜
Lolol best comment 🖤
@Yakari: you bet 😊
Does anyone else get super excited when she unraveled the curls? 😚
Yaas i sure enough did! Definitely will be trying this especially with creme of nature gel😊😀
summer young lol Whitney looked super excited too :)
Too excited I was like "oooohhh, ahhhhhhh" lol
hello
+Kamilah Griggs Hello
Man where all my brothers at?!? I can't be the only male into natural hair. Man I pick up tips from you females because y'all know what you're doing!
good for you! 😊
Shawn McKenzie this comments so cute omg
❤❤❤
You're not the only male, trust me! its nice to find guys that into natural hair as well. :)
im not a dude but good for you honey! Don't stick to stereotypes! :D
i really love that you don't talk so much during your tutorials! too many women go on and on and on and it's not necessary. thank you.
I agree. They talk about their personal life and it goes on and on, I just go to the next video.
I also agree...
I don't want to hear about your ex & other bs SHOW NE HOW TO USE THE PRODUCT
Great tutorial! I now know how to apply my rods
Gorgeous curls! Beautiful
Same. I love how she goes straight to the point.
Seems I edited out when I applied the shea butter!! #MyBad I applied the flax gel, and then a bit of shea butter on top to hold it in, and make the hair softer
That's ok, I knew you applied that after the gel! Good looking out though because I'm sure someone will ask about that! Have a GREAT day!
Just curious, when you did this set, was heat previously applied to your hair for the stretching process; as you mentioned in 0:23? You said you were testing the method using heat. Do you think you would have gotten similar results if "NO HEAT" was applied? (even though heat was not applied in the setting of the style, heat was previously applied). HAVE I confused you more? LOL!.
DiscoveringNatural Lol, no I know what you're saying. I don't think it would have been exactly the same, since heat has a way of really stretching those curls and kinks, but it would be extremely similar. If you take a look at my "How to cheat a perm rod video" you'll be able to compare the texture and see how it would look using absolutely no heat from start to finish. The results are still very shiny and smooth using the "No Heat Blowout Technique" Xo!
***** Thanks so much Whitney. I am on Day 3 of my first #Flexirods set and have been documenting my findings on my blog DiscoveringNatural blah blah.. LOL. I love my #NaturalHair and all its "hidden secrets". LOL!
I was just going to ask! Okay... will definitely try this! Thanks for shareing :D
In the event you run outta rods, take a paper bag and make strips out of it make those your rods.
My grandma taught me this trick and it works EVERY TIME
Wow thanks for the tip😋😘
Thank you so much for that tip
would u wrap the strips with the hair bc I'm a lil confused lol....1 more time 4 my slow ass
Basically, roll the hair around the strips like you would a regular roller. Then tie the ends of the strips like you would a shoe, but not too tight that you break any hair.
You guys are very welcome.
Nicole Waddington can you make a video on how you do it? Sounds very efficient
This tutorial is AMAZING! I have super thick, long hair and I must admit I am not the best at keeping up with my hair. I tried this and my hair turned out FABULOUS!
Can I just say that I appreciate that you still do hair videos? Thank you for still providing tips for us naturals!
That feeling you get when you do a style for the first time and it comes out amazing!!
DANGGGGggggggg hair so long and so thick ,,,Gorgeous
I've never used the flex rods,but from the outcome of this. I'll definitely be buying them soon.
I love your hair videos because you defy the odds of how others think about black hair, you made me realize that "natural is beautiful" 😍
I wish I could like this a million times!!! That's how beautiful these curls are!!!
I felt the same way, lol.
She makes everything look so simple. I'm obsessed with her hair 😍
Just want to say I love that you are not wearing tons of make up while setting & taking out your hair. the end results are amazingly beautiful.
I loved the final look and my husband did too. He was like "we're going to have to get you some of the rods" lol
LMBO!! Haha!! Yaay! Happy you guys liked it! Xo!!
Whitney, this is THE BEST flexi rod set I have EVER seen.
I love and appreciate how you got straight to the point and remained upbeat! Thanks so much for sharing!
It turned out so well! So curly, full, and shiny. This definitely makes me want to invest in flexi rods!
The EASIEST and QUICKEST Flexi Rod Set! New Upload! #NaturalHair
I tried this on my daughters hair but I came out puffy is there something different I should try ? *****
TOO FABULOUS! Your heatless stretched hair is soooo stretched, who needs a blow-dryer! Did you use the tension method for this stretching? I knew I detected a bit a color in those FABULOUS locks on your FB post the other day! I love flax seed gel thanks to you, I was scared of it at first...AAAAH see that flax seed mixture scares me, too thick like slime! Yeah, I remember that Nickelodeon GAK! Your curls are just AMAZING, you've got shine, smoothness, moisture and movement! Well this definitely deserves 2 THUMBS UP, 5 GOLD STARS and an A+++! If someone thumbs down this I'll just assume there finger slipped or their just CRAZY!
Thanks for this tutorial! Now my flexi rods won't be collecting dust. Your hair is so gorgeous!
I regret buying my set, but after seeing this, I have hope that I didn't waste my monies!
I so can not wait to try. =]
You have the most amazing hair I've ever seen in my LIFE. Like seriously. Thx for the vids!!
Your hair is Goals to the extreme :)
Will be trying this on my hair and my step daughters! Love that no heat is needed!
Flexi rod sets on wet hair doesnt work for me! I def will try it on dry hair. Thanks for sharing!
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! I'm getting married next year and I've been back and forth with natural hair or getting perm done (which I REALLY didn't want to). This video have given me so much inspiration and I can't wait to try this! Thank you for making girls like me embrace their roots. Much love!
Just love your hair and when I did this method it turned out AWESOME!!!!!! Thanks so much for all your videos and help that you supply/provide to the natural community
You are truly gifted when it comes to styling and caring for hair. Thanks for sharing with us :) Ciao, bella!
Soooo beautiful, I love it! I'm going to have to find the patience one day to try this style!!
What 8 morons disliked this??? Seriously. This has to be the best flexirod set I"ve seen on YT (and I've seen a lot!!). Beautiful curls. Hope you went somewhere nice with that beautiful hair and makeup!
Good question. What didn't they like? She did an excellent job. Haters maybe???
I guess so! I love Nap & all her videos
Black women are so beautiful 😍😍😍😍
All women are so beautiful! But, yeah, shoutout to my black queens.
@bigvirgotube can black women get props with out this all lives matter attitude Jesus Christ
Girl you are really and truely blessed that hair is absolutely gorgeous omg
SLAAAAAAYYYYY!!! Best flexi rod set that I have EVER seen!! Literally PERFECTION!!!
Aaah!! Thanks Girl! Xo!
You're welcome!! :D
Your tutorials are so helpful and always come out great. Thanks, and please keep em coming!
First all I love your videos. Did this style early Sunday morning (2:00AM) and even though I only had four hours for it to dry (no hooded dryer) but it turned out great and I had a lot of compliments on it...so yay!!!!
Thank you, thank you, and thank you for this video! The results of my rods were simply amazing...even your technique (thank you for sharing). I've done many rod sets in the past & it just gave me a normal curl & I wasn't really excited about my result...but this...this is awesome!
This is gorgeous im confused to why there are dislikes
Hands down one of your best hairstyles beautiful
this video saved a life 😌
Great video! You're definitely one of my influencers and mentors for my own natural hair channel! Thanks for so many great tips!
Am I the only one who thinks Whitney looks like jhene aiko at times?
lol yes very much so, o don't see it at all
not really.... :/
Their nose looks similar
Alyssa Zamora yea I see it
Jazz Davis definitely @ 4:31
This video was helpful with learning how to curl and lengthen natural hair without heat from a curling iron. I love how you applied the products to your hair and the definition of the curls. Your hair is beautiful!!!
I loved the new video and look. Your videos are always easy and amazing to watch. I've been learning alot of different hair techniques and have been getting alot of positive feedback on my hair styles. Thanks so much for taking the time in sharing these wonderful hair tips as i share them with others.
OMG yesss your hair is everything!! LOL can you say GOALS !
You amaze me every time with these hair stylesss
I love it! I just tried stretching out my natural curls with flexi rods by leaving them a little damp when I took them down. It worked pretty good!
Love everything about it! Great job! 💗💗💗
Still watching in 2019 as I prepare to take down my own flexi rod set 😅😅
Omfg it's too perfect!!! #hairporn
+Kamilah Griggs LOL I said that too
Lol her hair texture is different. I love the volume of her hair
Love the videos
Love love love!!!! This will def be my Nu summer hair!!!! Less breakage from my wet set.
Wow. This is amazing! You really helped me. I was on the bench about these. Because I REALLY don’t know what to do with my hair between braiding. And I’m not good at casual braiding at all. I’ve been trying to rock my natural curls but they frizz up WAY to fast. So I’ll give this a try. Thanks
Who wouldn't like this? People are so jealous. Smh.
Idk where the cheating is....so dislike
+onlythesmiles The cheat is that she didn't have to use heat to get the curls looking nice. So, now that you know, you can take back that dislike, and like it. :)
+Cindy99765 it states "how to cheat a flexi rod" there was no cheat. obviously you don't use heat cause ITS A FLEXI ROD.
+onlythesmiles Okay, chill, when I said "no heat", this is what I mean. Most people BLOWDRY (a form of heat) their hair to have it stretched for flexi rod sets..
+Cindy99765 I don't know where you got that from but "most people" don't do that
U did dat!
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL CURLS
So beautiful ❤ you are truly an inspiration!
How do you maintain this overnight and for a week?
beautiful
Washed and deap conditioning my hair today letting it air dry and stretch out. Will be attempting this style tomorrow on my strecht out coiks . Wish me luck. Love your tutorials. Much luv a hugs from the Netherlands!
Stunning, gorgeous hair and great tutorial! Thanks!
your hair makes me regret treating mine so bad *tears* BEYOND BEAUTIFUL HAIR amazing and helpful video my mom watches your videos all the time
Beautiful I LUV It!!!!:-)
Me too :))
Watching this video is making feel real good my own hair and better ways I can take care of my own hair. Natural Hair rocks!!
Absolutely GORGEOUS!!!
How long does this style last? Could you make a tutorial of a week of styles from this flexi rod set?
I am going to attempt this for New Year's. #FixitJesus
your hair is soooo beautiful, this is the best diy flexi rod set I've seen to date!
Awesome results! Thanks for the video!
How long did this style last and how do you maintain it?
I never use flexi rods anymore.
They always pull too tightly on my scalp.
I always use the old 80's style, pink sponge rollers :3
It costs like $1.50 for a 10-pack at my favorite beauty store & all its items for sale are 98% hair items.
But I LOVE the finished results on your hair; just...beautiful!
You could put your hair into high pigtails then do flexi rods easier to sleep and doesn't pull on scalp .
Britney Tran Yes, but then the curls do not go all the way to the scalp. :)
+Kristina Ravenell if your twa is at least 3-4 inches, its possible. don't do it on shorter hair - its possible, but you will have to pull really tight at the root go get the short hair around the curler.
I'd be very careful using sponge rollers. Although I have straight, thick Asian hair, when I used sponge rollers as a teen, I noticed how much hair would break off and stick to the spongey surface. Then a good friend of mine (who was an African American hair stylist) told me that they were particularly damaging to her hair. She told me that the coarser your hair texture the more likely the hair 'grabs' the sponge's surface, resulting in breakage. So she showed me how to tear an old sheet into strips and roll my hair with these to get beautiful spiral curls. :-)
Your hair is absolutely BEAUTIFUL & I will definitely be trying this out .
My sista!!!your hair is freaking killing it!!omg just beautiful delicious looking curls
I am going to attempt to do this tonight, I hope it turns out right.
+BeautifullyMe it turned out great it's way better than using curlers
+KLC Baby what is ur hair type
+faith defendre I have 3C type hair
+KLC Baby uhhhh your so lucky I have 4b
+faith defendre I wouldn't say lucky lol it tangles easily
When do you use the Shea butter?
Use it before applying the gel to help prevent flaking.
I was wondering the same thing
she said she puts it on after the gel to hold it in and make her hair softer
Beautiful! I use the rods myself, but I'm still new to the process. Thnx for the video!
Your hair is absolutely beautiful!!
Fuck I'm literally tearing up right now those curls were beautiful
What size flexi rods are you using?
Wow that shine is amazing on the take down!
I have not learned how to do this, but I hope to try one day! I have a box of flexi rods and attempted to put one in my hair just to see how they work and from that point I knew it would be an tough adventure lol, so I've been somewhat hesitant. I absolutely love your results!! thanks for the motivation and for sharing!
Can you do an update flexi rod set?" Please 😀😀😀
I have thick and frizzy/curly hair like yours, but its short. Do u think it would still look ok if i tried this look?
yes
yeah like a cute lil curly fro
Definitely do it it works just as well.
Your curls came out GORGEOUS😍
Hi Whitney! Ive got to try this!! Like always your hair is on point!! Thank You for making us Beautiful!!
i wish my hair was like her
about how many rods does she use?
This came out really beautiful!
Absolutely brilliant.........and to think all the products are natural. Great video and a must do for me when my hair gets to that length
I want so badly your hair length but sadly I'm too lazy and my frizz control is terrible
+Lexi Wells
Try doing a hot-oil scalp massage. beautyKlove saved my life, look her up on UA-cam, she has some AWESOME homemade hair masks.
Everytime I see a amazing hair tutorial:
...Can you do this with 4c though
i am obsessed trying this as soon as my braids are out!
these curls are pretty much perfection
What in the ever loving hell... This makes me want African hair so bad.
Me too😬🙁
it's a lot to take care of though
Yes, we are blessed aren't we?
You can do this with any type of hair TBH
Love To Sing Except the weight pulls the curls down at my crown whereas hers stays up. It's not as bad if I have been dying it so its more porous and light weight then but I'm trying to deal with my natural color now. Each strand is super fine on my head but there's a lot of it so it gets soooo oily super quick.
Okay, so if I try this style out on my shoulder length hair.... how much shrinkage would I get lol?? Maybe I should wait for my hair to grow out before trying this but this is my dream style!! And I doubt my curls would come out as BIG as hers did.. cries.
If your hair is shoulder length you finished result would be a short curly style. The size of the curls is dependent on the size of the rods you use. But you'll clearly have less volume and it will be more of a short Lil Orphan Annie do which is nice. Be happy with your hair. It's what you will always have.
nicthommi Thank you for your words! I guess ill try the hairstyle out to see what it looks like instead of giving it up :DD
Momo Mon'ami it will be super cute. I'm sure of that.
your hair is goals
- I've watched this soooo many times & 4:17 ALWAYS makes me smile. She looks so happy with her results.
What do u do to grow your hair..? That's the length I'm trying to get
time .. lots of people take vitamins or use certain hair products , but time & patience is all it takes.
My sister is about 5'4 and it took her maybe 6 years to get mid back length hair it usually takes quite some time if you weren't previously taking care of it
Just don't let your hair get dry.
Prevent breakage.
Retain moisture.
Take hair, nail, skin vitamins.
Drink water.
Be patient. Our hair does grow long.
Okay thanks. I noticed that my hair grow faster naturally then it did with a perm. It's growing fast because I am taking care of it and I'm loving the results
Kenecia Harris Also, watch your diet. Try juicing if you don't like to eat salads or a lot of veggies. Also try the "green-house" method. My hair grew quickly when I did this for 1 month straight. Deep- condition once a week- do it faithfully. And last but not least--always take special care of your ends.
My hair is naturally straight. Would it turn out like yours?
You would probably need more product, some hairspray, and heat. It's possible to get good results. But remember, this lady has very textured hair so while you both get curls, hers will be more defined simply because of the hair.
+Cindy99765 ok thanks☺💖
lisset baltazar you just need to make sure it's damp and should work.
You have a new subscriber!! I adore your videos and am really inspired and excited. I just started my transitioning journey a few months ago. i know my transitioning hair won't perform exactly like your gorgeous head of natural hair, but I've still been finding your tips, tricks, and techniques really helpful. Thanks!
Trying it now. Can't wait to see how it looks in the morning.
The flexi rods I used were too small and now I look like Shirley temple. How do I get rid of them?
I, personally, would wash my hair and start over or do something else. Or blow dry them out.
Lol
finger detangle and hair pick it out and they'll look looser
+Symoné Holloway use a paddle brush and they'll loosen up
I would take a SMALL bit of oil or some kind of balm and gently, pull on the section so the curl will relax a bit and be more like hers instead of it being too tight. Hers is REALLY amazing, the incredible bounce and shine!
