Finally, glad to hear another person say how long you want your hair IN ITS CURLY STATE!! I keep telling my hubby I want my hair to my elbows in curly state. Stay lovely and blessings to you.
Finally!!! someone who agrees with me about limiting trims. I left my stylist because she demanded to trim my ends a half inch EVERY 6 WEEKS!!! My Hair grows a half inch every 8 weeks!!! Do the math people please. lol. My sister still trims her hair every 6 weeks and My hair is now at least 5 or 6 inches longer than hers is. When we used to have the same length. She just doesn't get it. Stop cutting your hair if you want it to grow :)
You speak with such confidence on this subject! It just goes to show how important it is to be an expert about your own hair and know what it needs. You really set the example on that. Thank you!
Everyone is different some ppl need to trim more depending on damage as well. I'd rather cut the damage off than retain damaged length. I want to retain healthy length.
Absolutely gorgeous. I am back growing my hair naturally and I have decided to do only curly hair styles from now on. I can already tell this is the best decision I have ever made. Thank you for the inspiration
+TheShanaList Aww thank you! I'm so excited for you. There is nothing like embracing your natural hair! Good luck on your journey! And thanks for watching =)
I don't understand why people say ( how I grow my hair) lol 😄 a person doesn't grow their hair you hair growth is natural! How you take care of it is up to you. So please say how I keep my hair from breaking off!.
depends on how you define 'trimming' I basically dust on the fairy knots and split ends that get caught in my comb. It staves off breakage making my hair easier to detangle and I do it every 5 months. before I started trimming my hair would break off, so trimming for me helped in length retention
I read that every six years or so, you have a completely new head of hair due to natural shedding. So, we all have a terminal hair length but it differs from person to person depending on your personal growth rate.
Thank you, that was a lot of good information. I have definitely found that doing a wash n go more often I have not needed a trim in almost 6 mths. When I did straighten my hair my ends were still good. Thanks again
Great video! I had to show my teenager daughter this video, because i want her to know she can still look beautiful with her own beautiful natural hair. Thank you!
So informative. Appears I am doing several things WRONG to my hair. I'm leaving individual braids in way too long, color my hair and not really paying attn to ingredients in shampoos. Thanks! Your hair is absolutely beautiful!!!!!
Staying away from heat helps but I really wish people would stop making it seem like you're going to totally eff up your hair. If you're NEW to the natural thing / transitioning, of course stay away from is as much as possible but don't let people make you feel like straightening your hair one time or even 2 times a year is going to make you go bald lol
+Tanisha Williams Yes!! I straightened my hair for almost 3 and 1/2 straight. Every month or two I was in the salon getting a silk press. I just have a little bit of heat damage (about 5 small pieces) in the front but not all over my head. I still straighten my hair but not as often. I'm trying for 3 times a year now but heat is not the end of the world. It's hair. It'll grow back
yes but it only takes 1 time to damage your hair. you may do it 20 times a year but it only takes once for everything to change. I had heat damage from a simple protective style bc the blow dryer she used was ridiculously high. I'm still in recovery.
This video is hands down the best video I've ever watched on retaining length. I had to pause it just to grab my water bottle and vitamins, like you we're saying "go take them vitamins." I was so horrible to my hair a few yrs back. I trimmed it once a week, after every wash ( 😢 umm that's why it won't grow). The ends we're so dry from dying it. I got happy one day and put heat on it without heat protection. Girl!!!! Now, I'm so gentle with it and it's getting better. Thanks for the clarity, knowledge and laughs. 😅👏👏👏
The point about trimming is so true and seriously annoyingly incorrect in the hair community. The only reason Stylists tell you to trim is cuz it's an extra 10-15$ tacked onto a service and in their account. I always say no and trim when i want or need to on my own at home. Having a solid regime eliminates the need for excessive trims.
Very enjoyable video! The less trimming tip is so hard for most people to grasp. They are hard wired to trim on a schedule. Chicoro's book "Grow it" really helps with this concept. Sometimes what we think are splits or bad ends are just lead hairs. She recommends letting the lead hairs get so far and then after so many inches cut back up to the bulk of your hair. Where ever the lead hairs reach, the bulk of you hair length Will get there.
Quinn I want to thank you for your video response and you were right girl, I bought the clay and by the first time I wash I noticed wasn't itchy. REALLY appreciate it the time you take to help your followers, God bless😊
Can you share or do a video on what types of protective styles you wear? Do you ever wear wigs as a form of protective styling and if so can you share a video on how you do that with the volume of hair that you have. Thanks for sharing this video
Thanks so much for sharing! Many of the tips you states were reassuring but the others I definitely need to get better with! Not to mention I just got heat damage after almost 2 yrs of no flat ironing 😕 So now I'm being safer about it but I think this will be my last flat iron style for a while...I'm going to get back to my old routine of no heat and protective styles! ❤️ your channel!
Hello fellow natural I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed your tips. You are so right if your taking good care of your hair and being gentle and not using heat. Good healthy practices. It's so true you don't have to be trimming those ends all the time. I was following the trap oh I have to trim my ends every 3 months. My ends really didn't need trimming. I take darn care of my hair like you, I use no heat. I have been natural for 4 years. I have to say you have such beautiful long natural hair. I will probably trim once a year that's fine for me. Great video fellow natural.😊
Thank you for this video! I suffered from alopecia areata (I and md feel like it's triggered by stress) and eczema and had to cut all my hair off a year ago and see a dermatologist. I went completely natural and am trying to get it back to a decent length now that the spots have filled in. I find good health, not stressing, protective styling, moisture (inside and out!), and not getting "scissor happy" have really helped. Thank you for exposing this myth about trimming! I have been told that if I don't trim my hair every 6-8 weeks, I won't retain length and was happy to hear you explain that that's not always the case! I'm subscribing. #feelingencouraged
i don't know about yaw but ... I'm not going the rest of my life without flat ironing lol I'm sorry.. I usually flat iron every 3-5 months.. I gotta switch it up sometimes lol
Thank you Quinn for taking the time to make these videos for us. I daresay they are very helpful. I refer to them whenever I am feeling impatient with my own hair growth, or just need a reminder to keep going. Jamila
I enjoyed watching your video. It was very informative and your hair looks great! I will implement some of these retention tips. Thank you for sharing your hair journey with us naturals. Be bless!
Good job! I think a lot of people forget about health being an outside AND inside. But anyways, your hair is stunning and encouraging b/c my transitioning hair is NOT the business lol!
Wow you are so all naturally beautiful and kind spirited! Thanks for all the tips. I am definitely going to stop with my routine 3 month trim or reshape that I always thought was a routine healthy thing to do.
I think another important thing that may have not been mention is protein. I noticed when I co-washed, a lot my hair retained more length when I balanced the over-moisturization with protein to strengthen my strands. Protein is helpful in keeping the ends strong, which retains more length. Great video!
Thanks for your suggestion. I actually stay away from protein myself, but agree that some people do benefit from protein treatments. Thanks for watching!!
+by lyn OMG, I know that's frustrating. But luckily it will grow back! Yea the heat I think is the biggest culprit. Good luck on your journey. Thanks for watching =)
NaturallyQuinn thank you for being responsive. Wasn't expecting that! Keep up the great work in modeling and hair career markets. You're so fortunate to be thriving in your industries.
Micro braids actually helped me grow my hair a few years ago.They were the kind that look better as they age. My sis had micro braids a few years before me and she lost her edges. I did the hairstyle when i was natural n she was relaxed thou, not sure if that made a difference. We also maintain our braids differently.
"That's how you lost your edges, boo boo". Ha! So true, I see it all the time in the subway. Ohh well, we live and learn. Great tips. Btw, you're beautiful! And I'm not hating, keep working it!
+Shay Salters Indeed. Woman were growing beautiful, healthy natural hair long before we knew about porosity, silicones and curl types. Thanks for watching 😉
+NaturallyQuinn Amen! you're very welcomed. I had my locs for 15 years and I recently cut them off. I'm rocking a medium afro and I love it. I'm allowing nature to take its course.
I enjoyed this video. I'm not really trying to grow out my hair but it was interesting to note that I do abide by most of these things, which in my mind are common sense. Take care of your physical body, most especially internally, and be cognizant of what you are putting on your hair and then "leave it and it will grow" lol
I am currently at the TWA stage of my natural hair journey. As my hair grows out notice that my hair becomes difficult to detangle, my hair is frizzy (less definition), and the shape of my cut is awkward. I goto a professional on a as needed basis to get my hair trimmed. Since my trim, my hair is easier to detangle and my curls are more defined. Everyone's hair has different needs.
It is super important to get trims. If you don't, your split ends will travel up your hair and your hair will break off. Getting trims won't keep your hair from growing, but not getting trims will ensure damage and breakage. You wont see the length if it keeps breaking off
balabalanceX3nya I don't think that's what she meant if your hair is healthy there is no need to trim it on a regular basis but if it is unhealthy and splitting you are right u should trim it so it won't damage the healthy hair
You are just absolutely Gorgeous and loving the hair has well. Thanks for all your tips, will certainly incorporate them in my journey. Blessings:)...New sub
Omg, with the 'it only takes one time for heat damage' is so true! I got my hair flat ironed last year for Easter, and it MURDERED my hair, and this was the first time is gotten it done in 2 years.
lol you saved me turning my hair to a ball of nothing lol man this 4c hair is a pain and I think me being anemic and the hard water here in Canada makes it 10 times worst for me
New subscriber! You're so informative and I will most definitely try to retain moisture. I do use Cantu Shampoo which has no sulfates, but I will try co-washing...I need all the moisture I can get haha
+Bryan & Michelle Huddleston You're welcome. That sounds great! Can you please DM me your details on IG @naturallyquinn or email me directly so we can communicate offline? Thank you!! 💜
I have a lot of single strand knots, but I just recently cut my hair! I don't know what I am doing wrong! I have only been doing my hair for 1 year. Before that, my mom would do it all the time, and keep it in braids for 2-3 weeks at a time, wash it, and put it back in braids again. I have it out 5 days of the week, I wash on weekends and keep it twisted on the weekends. So I only do my hair once a week. I haven't seen much growth, though I haven't really been keeping track of it as in measuring.
+NW Johnson Your routine sounds pretty good to me. I would just make sure I am not ripping through my hair when installing and uninstalling the twist. If you really want to get a good idea of how your hair grows, I WOULD suggest measuring it 1-2 times a year. Checking too frequently can lead to disappointment, because hair grows in cycles. Thanks for watching!
NaturallyQuinn ok thanks, usually when I detangle, I finger detangle a bit, and then use my paddle brush, could the paddle brush possibly be ripping through my hair?
Finally, glad to hear another person say how long you want your hair IN ITS CURLY STATE!! I keep telling my hubby I want my hair to my elbows in curly state. Stay lovely and blessings to you.
Me to, I love it nappy, curly, coily but I want it longer like that not straight!
Finally!!! someone who agrees with me about limiting trims. I left my stylist because she demanded to trim my ends a half inch EVERY 6 WEEKS!!! My Hair grows a half inch every 8 weeks!!! Do the math people please. lol. My sister still trims her hair every 6 weeks and My hair is now at least 5 or 6 inches longer than hers is. When we used to have the same length. She just doesn't get it. Stop cutting your hair if you want it to grow :)
+Jennifer Laster Preach sis! Thanks for watching ☺️
I never tell my clients or students they need a trim if their hair is healthy!! I hope your sister only trims when it's needed!!
You speak with such confidence on this subject! It just goes to show how important it is to be an expert about your own hair and know what it needs. You really set the example on that. Thank you!
Aww thank you! That is very kind of you. Thanks for watching 💜
You by far make more sense than the so called "hair gurus" on UA-cam thank you♡
Great tips on length retention. Your hair looks gorgeous and I like your bamboo plant too!
Thank you +nancydrew5! And thanks for watching =)
I've definitely have over trimmed my hair over the years. Great tips Quinn!

With so much information available, you kept it simple. Looking forward to checking out your other videos/tips.
+April Thank you! I hope you enjoy!
One thing I had to do with my hair to make it grow, is to keep it moisturized. I swear this really worked for my hair texture. Anyway great video.
What do you use to moisturize your hair?
+Pelcia Jones water , alovera juice, coconut water etc
Staying away from heat helps but I really wish people would stop making it seem like you're going to totally eff up your hair. If you're NEW to the natural thing / transitioning, of course stay away from is as much as possible but don't let people make you feel like straightening your hair one time or even 2 times a year is going to make you go bald lol

Thanks for your advice. I usually ask my Mother on how to retain length...since she took great care of my hair when I was a child...Great advice.
Awesome advice Quinn, thanks!
what to do about single strand knots...
You have to trim your ends. I did it and my hair is so much better ! But now I love to cut my hair but I want to grow it lol
+Petites boucles you can also just trim the single strand knots but good luck...
yes thank you I trim them just making sure its okay to do it that way .lol
hey to have minimum single strand knots you should keep your hair hydrated and mosturized
+LinzeyLiN O OK thanks for the tip I will definitely keep that up
Excellent advice, thank you. Your hair is healthy, full and beautiful.

Evening Quinn! Love your advice on how to retain length! I'm doing all except drinking enough water, but I'm headed to grab a glass now!

Thank-you for speaking the truth about trimming hair. I think 3 to 4 months is excessive, especially if you're not using direct heat.
You are very confident in your own regimens. Seems like you're not following all the hype that's out here. Thank you.

Awesome 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 hair growth tips. Thank you 🙏🙏🙏 for sharing this wonderful teaching information video
It is super important to get trims. If you don't, your split ends will travel up your hair and your hair will break off. Getting trims won't keep your hair from growing, but not getting trims will ensure damage and breakage. You wont see the length if it keeps breaking off

I have a lot of single strand knots, but I just recently cut my hair! I don't know what I am doing wrong! I have only been doing my hair for 1 year. Before that, my mom would do it all the time, and keep it in braids for 2-3 weeks at a time, wash it, and put it back in braids again. I have it out 5 days of the week, I wash on weekends and keep it twisted on the weekends. So I only do my hair once a week. I haven't seen much growth, though I haven't really been keeping track of it as in measuring.
+NW Johnson Your routine sounds pretty good to me. I would just make sure I am not ripping through my hair when installing and uninstalling the twist. If you really want to get a good idea of how your hair grows, I WOULD suggest measuring it 1-2 times a year. Checking too frequently can lead to disappointment, because hair grows in cycles. Thanks for watching!
NaturallyQuinn ok thanks, usually when I detangle, I finger detangle a bit, and then use my paddle brush, could the paddle brush possibly be ripping through my hair?

+joyariffic You are so welcome. Thanks for watching. I shampoo when I notice buildup, which is usually ever 2-3 months.
