Who's here from the protective style video to learn how to properly take down a protective style 😁
For real that's me right now :))
I'm here with you😀😀😀
Me!
Meee!!!
Me😂😂😂😂i changed the moment she mentioned her other video of how to take it down😂😂😂
Seun this is a cautionary tale for everyone. I took down 6 week old box braids last year, and because I was rushing that day (yeah you did say never rush this) I jumped in the shower BEFORE fully getting all the shed hair out. It had already taken 2 days to take the braids out. I figured I would just finish detangling and de-shedding as I washed and conditioned my hair. WRONG! My hair matted - I mean like beyond matted - the mats were hard like plastic. You could not even stab or poke through the mats with the end of a comb or even the tip of scissors!! More water, more moisturizer made it worse. I was crying like a baby. So my husband tried to help and used some product he uses on his horses' manes when they mat up. Didn't work. He was ripping my hair out. And he admitted sometimes he just had to cut the horses' manes off. I cried more. The next day I called my beautician (not the braider) and she knew what happened before I could finish the story. She said, "Don't tell me, you didn't comb all the shed hair out first. Don't you know water is a locking agent?" She finished slowly ripping out mats, and I avoided having to "big chop" but I had a bunch of 1-2 inch short patches. Now I know water can be used to accelerate the locking process if you want to dread your hair faster. Who knew? I didn't. As the shed hair began to work its way out while I washed and conditioned, the water locked and matted my hair. I knew about de-shedding after braids. But no one EVER told me what might happen if you introduce water before completely de-shedding. This was my 4th-5th time having braids, but the other times I didn't wash my hair the same day I finished taking the braids down, and I kind of combed loose hair out over the next few days. Sorry this was long. Just had to share and hope it helps someone else. BTW this can happen to any hair type. I have 4a-3c hair. It did mat a little more in the 4 type areas, but I've been told that any type hair can mat. Ladies please don't allow any water on your hair until you have finished carefully combing ALL the loose shed hair out. My protective style turned into a big setback.
Thanks for the tip. My afro is so short now, and I thought the braids caused the breakage. Major setback for me.
Thanks
Thank you so much for sharing this
Tfs
This happened to me as well. I took my box braids out and decided to just wash my hair .. bad idea .. my hair matted, but I was in the middle in transitioning so the matted hair was right where I was going to cut anyway
Even though I don’t regret going natural I wish I had a youtuber like you while my hair was relaxed.
My thoughts exactly!!!
Yes exactly! Even though I haven't relaxed in almost 10 years and very rarely ever use heat tools (except a blow dryer), my afro just will not grow. Now I know why.
I felt this
Lol
Who else came across one of Seun videos and ended up subscribing AND binge watching several videos 🥴🤗 thanks girl!!! Needed ALL THIS INSPIRATION/MOTIVATION/TIPS/HELP etc etc etc
Me lol. I took down my protective style two days ago(took me three days) and now I feel like crying. Where did my hair go?!?!
Just a tip for everyone who is natural (especially type 4) watching Seun lovely video and following this method, when detangling try just using plain coconut oil (or any oil) as a pre-poo and detangler. I use to use leave-in conditioner too or any creamy/watery detangling product but they make my hair wet/damp and then my hair tangles very easily when it is dirty and then become wet, also the conditioner drys down and then I have to add more and then the hair gets cakey. The oil by itself provides slip/lubrication without actually making my hair wet, plus coconut oil is a penetrating oil so it will actually soften the hair from within.
P.S. coconut oil also can not make most people with protein sensitive hair react, b/c the protein molecules in the coconut oil are too big to actually get into the hair. The proteins will just lay on top which is where the complaints about "brittle or dry" hair comes from with coconut oil, I personally only use coconut oil as a prepoo or mixed in with other oils to grease my scalp and lock in moisture after cleansing.
Coconut oil absolutely makes my hair brittle asf. I have fine 4c hair. I spritiz water on my braids , then eden bodyworks conditioner. Then I put avocado oil on the braids right before I start to take them down. I cant just use oil ive literally had breakage from doing that. 4c hair needs either a light spritz of water or leave in conditioner BEFORE unraveling the braids...NOT wet, lightly damp. Combing dry 4c hair is an absolute no no. Oils are sealants. Coconut oil is a penetrating sealant. So if you have low porosity hair, it can absolutely lock moisture out and cause breakage. Just do a light spritz of water before adding any oils...even if youre about to wash your hair
@@mzhotniz86 You do whats best for you, I was just explaining the science of coconut oil. I suggested the best use for it is as a pre-poo and detangling agent (to be done on dry hair before washing as in Seun's method), also I do not nor was recommending people "comb" bone dry 4c hair but if your hair is dirty you do have to detangle your hair dry or risk matting when washing, I recommend finger detangling when using oil to remove all the shed hair and dirt. I also suggested to use it in a mix of oils for a scalp (not hair) sealant: I personally combine coconut oil with avocado oil, jojoba oil, almond oil, castor oil, and olive oil.
*All* oils are sealants but they "seal" in different ways based on the lack of or availability of triglycerides, from the available research concerning coconut oil on hair, there aren't any solid studies confirming that it "absolutely lock moisture out and cause breakage" if any thing it did the opposite and helped prevent hydro fatigue in hair and helped prevent too much moisture and proteins from leaving your hair shaft when washing. I also have fine 4c hair and use to dislike coconut oil until I realized I was using it wrong, like as a stand alone sealant. I changed my mind when I started using it as pre-poo and have not experience any brittleness or breakage, plus when washing most of the oil comes out and my hair is softer and doesn't feel as dry after the wash. Also you don't need that much coconut oil and it doesn't have to be left on the hair over night, simply 30 minutes as a pre-poo hot oil treatment or 2 hours under a bag or cap without additional heat is enough. Please refer to the articles/links attached, all are from medical institutes or individuals with a PhD in Chemistry/Biology.
Also one last thing to note is that most shampoos/cleansers are more on the alkaline side of the pH scale which alkaline substances swell and force the hair cuticles to opens which isn't good for hair so using coconut or any other penetrating oil before will help counteract that forced swelling. I use clay to cleanse my hair and scalp and that is also more alkaline. Every person depending on how they use it and their actual chemical structure of their hair will experience different results, but I wanted to make known the full story so that people can make educated decisions to understand why something may or may not work fro them. And there are other penetrating oils that can be used if one doesn't really like coconut oil, my next favorite is olive oil. Avocado oil has some penetrating properties but isn't as good as coconut or olive oil, so that probably might be more beneficial for those with low porosity.

@@mzhotniz86 I also spritz my hair, then use shea butter together with cantu coil detangler and spritz again if needed
So you detangle with coconut oil and then wash your hair?
@@mzhotniz86 dang bro my 4c hair loves coconut oil
I have to say you are one of THE nicest youtubers on here, like hands down, your personality is so down to earth and I can see/feel that your heart is gold and that you genuinely love what you do on here, I have been watching your videos for some time now, you have such a positive spirit, stay sweet. 👍
Aww, thank you so so much!❤️❤️ I really appreciate your comment
May I ask is your hair permed
@@johannajames90 her hair is relaxed
Finally someone that doesn’t use a lot of Products in their hair 😩
or really expensive products; the products she did use are so easy to get & are really inexpensive.
most of everyone i’ve ever watched uses really rare or expensive products...
Yes that part😫❤
ikr that or really expensive ones 😩
I use a shampoo conditioner deep conditioner Argan and castor oil that’s all and in the summer I’m going to be using chi to protect my hair from the sun
i like the part where she smiled while doing the washing part. made me smile too
lol!❤️
Me too! I love when she smiles in her videos, it always looks like she wants to laugh, and I start smiling too lol.
Girl I thought that been weave 😭😍
LOL!
nah her hair sooo long
Plenty of people do black women cant be great always proven to people daily damn !!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
So you don’t wash your weave at all while it’s in??
My face literally lit up on that first shot of her right when she just finished talking down the last braid. Her natural hair is so beautiful and voluminous!
I took 3 hours to take down my braids n I've never felt so good because my hair has grow after 1 month 2 weeks in protective styling ☺️
I can see you struggling to show us the full-length of your hair. Your length is goals right now. Thanks for sharing.
Its also looking like you are getting quite a workout withall the lifting and tugging.
Hahaha, true. It was hard to get it all in the frame. Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!
Hard to get it in the frame..? Honey don't you just have to zoom out lol
@@ontheedge9708 dont you mean move her camera backwards?
Depends on the camera, of you have a no zoom lens and a small room, you can't zoom out neither can you move the camera back.
I never thought to use moisturizer to help detangle lol. I always feel like my hair is already dirty so I don't wanna add to it but this makes so much sense bc you're gonna wash it lol
If you have problems with bad dandruff and/or flaking, you should grease (not oil but actual HAIR GREASE) your scalp really good and the day before. Use plenty and work/massage it in thoroughly. You might have to throw in an extra round of shampooing but I swear to you, it TRULY does help loosen those flakes and dried skin cells.
Also....it might be hard to break the habit, but DO NOT USE YOUR NAILS to scrub your scalp! USE YOUR FINGERTIPS ONLY! (It was very hard for me, but I finally won lol).
If you must/just gotta use your nails, do so very gently. If you're 'digging' and scratching really hard (Yea! I know it feels good lol) you're further irritating your scalp and exacerbating the problem! Just think and compare to if you dug into your arm or leg skin the same way, what it would do and look like.
@@NKLnDime thank you!! I'll definitely try this! And yes I literally have to remind myself every time to not scratch my scalp 😂 but I never thought of the arm/leg analogy that makes so much sense!
NKLnDime Hmm 🤔 gonna try grease with my takedown next week. 👌🏽
@@xBelleNoireafter shampooing use a good amount of conditioner and use your fingers to finger comb and completely untangle your hair. Once untangled, (I wash my hair in shower), continue running your fingers through your hair as the spray rinses. This will help remove any lingering flakes.
For those with dandruff problems. Use a medicated shampoo. I use Denorex on the rare occasions I have a flare up. Mine is actually psoriasis, not regular dandruff.
However, you can't just use it like regular shampooing. You have to give it time to work! Thoroughly wet your hair then wring out excess water. Apply enough shampoo to saturate down to your scalp then massage it in with your fingertips really good. Let it sit for a good five minutes then rinse. If you have lots and lots of dandruff, shampoo with regular shampoo first to loosen and get rid of as many flakes as possible. THEN do the medicated application on your second round.
NOTE: Don't leave medicated shampoo in more than 10 mins!! I tried different amounts of time with medicated. Anything over 10 mins dried the heck out of my scalp and was harsh on my hair when it was permed. I'm natural now and no ill effects.
I hope these tips help someone.
Oh I forgot: During severe psoriasis outbreak the itching can DRIVE YOU MAD!! 'Scalpicin' is excellent to stop itching! It's not cheap but trust me, I'd pay double the price because that stuff is worth every cent!!
Good luck everyone!
Hey Seun, I have been watching your videos for a while. I just wanna thank you for teaching me the right way to take out braids after a long period. I cut my hair in December last year because it seemed weak and lifeless . Since then I have used your technique and my hair is growing nicely. Thanks again.
I love the fact that you stand for your straight hair😍😍 . If people could just let others do what they want with their hair
I love the way you are happy with your hair, it motivate me a lot. With few of your videos I have watched, I feel my hair can grow really long.
Your real hair is beautiful 😍
Thank you!!!!
wish I saw this video before... I did everything wrong. I had knots I had to cut out.
Your video will help me for my future protective styles.
My hair is very different from hers so i didnt really think it would work for me but boy i was wrong . Im so glad i could find her channel.😃😃
Your length is so encouraging! Continue to do a great job with your hair hun 💞
I love your video! It helped me alot. Over the years i was letting "professional" stylist do my hair and my hair fell out. My old remedies didn't work but this helped alot. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this❤️❤️ finally found a UA-camr that is giving us the tips and tricks for relaxed hair😭
Thank you, yes, it did help. The way you go into such detail of many small steps is why your hair looks how it does - gorgeous!
I'm so glad!
I really appreciate this transformation and you think this is her real hair.😳 👌 ✨ YES!
All I can say is “ Wow”. Thank you for making this video, I’ve learned a lot.
Love it Love it Love it. Long Haired Sister wearing a weave as a protection style NOT because she has to because of hair damage or hair loss. Stay Healthy and Strong.
Wow. I didn’t see you use any combs after the detangling stage. I need to stop using combs so much. Also, your root- blow dry method is awesome!!!!
I found that conditioner mixed with water in a spray bottle does wonders when detangling cornrows that you have had in for months. Use detangler on the ends, but then on the roots where the build up is spray at the build up.
You hair is relaxed, long and healthy. I am impressed.
I really like the idea of moisturizing my hair per section i did notice less breakage and it makes sense now to not comb through dry hair. I have 4c thanks!
You're so welcome!
After watching your videos years ago I believed my relaxed hair could achieve tail length. I'm on 14 inches now and so happy, except that my hair shedded alot when I wash, that it made me hate and dread wash days.
I wish a lot of black women (idk why I said black lol we all black here... it's our issue tho) who wear protective styles would watch this. Literally almost everyone I know takes it down and combs it completely dry and then they have thinning ends. But they want their hair to grow. Smh but no one listens to me.
It's frustrating because I'm like I KNOW your hair can grow but you won't let it! But you want mine tho! 😂
But I always braid my sons hair and I take it down and finger detangle with my hands only (I keep my shears handy for any single strand knots) and I use my own products to lubricate and moisturize. His hair is mbl and perfectly even. He's 4.
m x r z k i how’s the baby you had by your father doing 😉🤔🤣
Hope Wiley I agree! I never comb it completely dry especially when taking down a protective style.
@m x r z k i Why are you here then? I'm curious... and this is coming from someone who isn't black. She was talking about giving advice to "black women". How did you get triggered by this? You came here to get TIPS from a black woman after all? I'm confused. 🤔
@m x r z k i You came here to watch a black woman wash her hair....? Lmao. You're sad. I'm sorry for triggering you over what again? Oh yeah, nothing. 😊
@@tilabryant2948 wtf
Wow Girl I can't never thank you enough for these precious tips😭❤❤
You are very welcome!
I know it's difficult to change but if you turn that dryer down to the cooler setting, you'll really notice a difference. You're awesome and such an inspiration. Thanks for sharing.
The difference here between my hair and yours, is you have a perm. My hair is totally natural! So, it takes a lot more patience to comb through my hair when I'm shampooing and conditioning it. I just wanted to differentiate that you have a perm, so for someone with 100% natural/no chemical hair, it takes even more work.
I'm trying very hard to keep my hair in protective base as long as possible. I start itching around a week or two because the concept of not washing my hair gets on my mental too bad. My hair is very short, but growing out. I used yarn to braid it down, then crocheted on short human afro kinky hair. Tje yarn actually holds my castor oil and Cantu Deny Dry moisturizers in and doesn't break off my hair like braiding hair. I never thought to redo my protective styles without rebranding my hair. Thanks very much for sharing.
Yes Yes YES this helped me!!! Your hair is so beautiful and has grown on down to your butt!!! Protective styles are great as long as you re0 taking care of your own hair and you are doing just that!!! I just wish I knew how to do more protective styling like you!! Loved video!!!!
So glad it helped!!❤️
I think you are the first relaxed and proud UA-camr that I've seen in forever. I loved being relaxed. I'm going to look through your videos. I'll be waiting for your relaxed videos for tips, I'm especially interested in which relaxed you use and your process. I may be going back to a relaxer! Thank you for the inspiration.
you should check our Lisa Onuoha, if you haven’t already. she’s a relaxed hair youtuber.
Noooo!! Your natural hair is sooo much more versatile! Please don't!
Me too! Already got my relaxer even. Her page makes me believe my hair can grow
But Joy... YOUR CURLY HAIR IS SO BEAUTIFUL!!! I was looking at your profile photo and WOW what beautiful curls! Are you sure you want to go back to a relaxer? But WHY? I sincerely would like to know if you don't mind sharing your reasoning! God bless you either way my beautiful sister!💕
WomanofFaith hi! Thank you so much! I must confess that my profile picture is actually crochet braids, but thank you so much! Also, it has been a year and I've been through so much with my hair. I did end up relaxing. Although I've been relaxed on and off since I was a child, something went horribly wrong and most of my hair broke off. I ended up doing the big chop several months ago and I now have about 4 inches of natural hair. No more relaxers for me. Thank you so much for your updated comment. I hope you are well during these trying times. Take care!
i'm half hispanic and half white so u know i don't have hair like this but i still clicked bc it's interesting to watch, i'm taking notes for my next life when i become a black girl lol
Please make a video of how you care for your hair when protective styling :)
Amazing,beautiful! You are my inspiration ❤️❤️lots of love from 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thank you!!
@@SeunOkimi hi how long have u been growing ur hair relaxed to get the length now
Love how long your hair has grown since i watched your last video!!!! Thanks for sharing these tips!💕
So we need videos on how you wrap your hair at night, updates on you since you went incognito, what do you think about rice water, etc? 😊
Welcome back!!!! I missed you so much!!!!😍 Where have you been?
I have natural hair, almost shoulder length 😊.
Thanks for the tips, Seun.
I'll work on the (b/d) technique 👍.
I bought that brush today to blow dry my hair and it is a game changer!!! Thank you for the tips! 😊
hi, what is the name of the brush?

🙄
I think it's her smile Blu and Bey smile like that
🤪🙄🙄
Period! Represent tell men we can have long hair too!
gurl your videos should be PAID $300/min this is diamond status
Please show how you wrap your hair in a video. You're my favourite hair person on UA-cam. I've really been on a plateau but I just realized I'm losing length cos of impatience and washing before detangling properly. Sometimes the time spent detangling feels sinful 😩
I like that your hair isn't too hard to handle. Mine is, taking care of my hair most times is pretty difficult. And the salons around aren't helping matters either, I don't wear braids for more than a month if not, it begins to draw my edges and makes me loose a lot of hair.
My hair gets tangled and dried easily. I'm in Nigeria and are there oils you'll recommend for hair growth?
I love the care you put into your hair!
Aw, thank you
Looking at your hair is therapeutic👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😍😍😍
I adore your content. Your hair is stunning. Keep shining Queen !
Big Love from South Africa xoxo
I needed this i really don't put nothing in my hair and i sometimes braide it going back and just leave and when i went to get my hair done it showed how long my hair was getting so thank you for this video
Thank you , now I know why I don’t retain length even after I give my hair a TLC, but when I do protective style n the day I take them down I loss bundle of hair n always remain short hair . I always cry for matted hair to Detangle
Did you first relax your hair on your own? I feel like my hair will be easier for me to take care of if I relax it
Yes, I do!
@@SeunOkimi do you use deep conditioner? How often should should a deep conditioner be use?
@@SeunOkimi i can't put that in my hair and i haven't had one in years
@Nalia Wolfie You are supposed to grease your scalp before you put in a relaxer to protect your scalp. Also you arent suppose to allow it to sit too long until it burns.
@@SeunOkimi what type of relaxer do you use?
Wow, your hair is so long and healthy. 😊 You do a great job with it. You do such a good job that you could be a hair stylist. 🤗
And I didn't know you started doing UA-cam videos back in 2016. That's the year I found your video about the Jannie wig. I like that wig. Your video on it is the main reason I got it. I still have it too, and it still looks good. 😁
Thank you!! That makes me happy to know!

I’m not weird for saying this 😂 but I like your face
lol, thank you
Me too. I feel like I've seen her in a movie before lol. I like her smile too
Don’t ever do a big chop. I want little black girls and the world to see that black hair can grow to any length with care, commitment, knowledge and patience; there are no excuses.
I love your videos Seun - I have learned a lot in terms of treated hair. I might try it next year. Thank you. You are beautiful btw
Inchessss!!😍
It’s quarantine now I want to be my own ✨hairdresser✨
Two questions. 1. How often do you wash your hair when you have your protective styles in? 2. Can we get a video of how you wrap your hair?
Not often, and ya, check my how to sleep with a see in vid! Its the same process!
@@SeunOkimi hmmm, how long?
How do you not get shedding? I have natural hair, and I swear I feel like half of my new growth just sheds out as soon as I take my braids down. I use mayo instead of ORS. And i finger detangle🤦♀️
Hair is beautiful btw
if you keep your protective style in for long there will be a lot of shedding don’t worry
Shedding is natural. We she'd up to 100 strands per day.
Sweets RH it’s not the new growth shedding.
Hi, I added a bit of coconut oil and steamed my hair for 25 minutes yesterday. So far it’s the least shedding i have EVER had with natural hair. I also added more coconut oil while detangling and left it overnight as a pre-poo. As a point of reference i have 4c hair.
LISTEN... my hair when it gets to bra strap or armpit, it stops growing!!!! And BABY... after watching your videos!!!!!! I’ll protective style my hair until my length girl!!!!!!!! Believe that!!!!!!
*my desired length
Yes!!! ❤️
did you reach your length?
@@tsuyuasui7297 actually yes. her tips worked on me
Wow, your hair have grown so much, where have you been
Do you have a video discussing the care techniques you use while your hair is in a style like cornrows or under a sew-in? (i.e washing, conditioning, daily/weekly routine)
I’m curious as to how you keep your hair “clean” and moisturized when it’s in a style for so long. 💆🏾♀️
Not yet!
Yes this is the exact question I came to ask
You my friend to the end!!!! I never knew how to use a round brush.🤣🤣💯💯💯💯💯

Nice to see you...hope school is going well!
Thank you!
It looks great... glad you stayed relaxed... I did the big chop twice but it didn’t work out for me. Its good I have someone with my hair to get advice from.
Do you relax your hair by yourself or do you go to a salon? Also, how often do you relax your hair?
Ama she has many videos out answering that question
Eileen Flama you could’ve just answered it for her 🙄🙄
@@eileen4851 lol why you dont answer
Myself! 3-6 months!
Satisfying, this is what I have been looking for
I agree with you sister.also i do a lot of protective style.braids are better than twists,twists breaks the hair a little bit.My hair has grown a lot
I am Mary God bless you
Yes!!
so happy i came across this helped sm bc I have relaxed hair
Girl you have a whole bunch of long nice silky hair
I’d love to see you with curly hair I feel like you’d look soo cute

Thank you! I want to do them more!!
The day my hair looks like yours pigs will fly lmaooooo you look amazing great video!
Thank you!!
I use a blow dryer too on my natural hair and it actually works
If u live In Nigeria,and u feel ors is too expensive? U can try mega growth DEEP conditioner to help detangle it's 550naira.thats what I use. I followed her process and it worked, like I didn't even have to use a comb.i just put the deep conditioner and use my hands to ease the knots, and it only needs very very small amounts per section of hair. I'm so happy I saw this video.way less shedding. 😊😁😁 and it's 1000 naira cheaper than ors 😁
I totally agree with you. I use Mega growth deep conditioner too and I absolutely love it!
Really? Mega growth works? I saw it in the supermarket but felt sceptical. I'll try it next time. Thank you😘
@Lillrayz 400 the small size is 550, big size 1200
Who else is here from her video she made on the 15th?
Is it me or she looks like Spencer from all american when she smiles....great tips anyway😍
Thank u... omg i wish i watched this when i took my twists out 🤦🏽♀️.. i know now
Me on the other hand: taking down braids in section, brushing it and when I’m done taking it all out I brush everything together 😩💔😅.... then I don’t shampoo nor condition in sections and I don’t apply lotions or oils before blow drying and I also don’t blow dry in sections 💔.... Thanks for the tips Seun... I’m definitely gonna try it out ♥️
Thanks so much, I have been doing this for sometime and it really works.
Great to hear!!!
My hair was that length before I went natural, literally touched my spine
Sis you know your spine ranges anywhere from your nape to your booty right?
@@pinkbutterflies994 you know what she meant lmao
Why have I never thought to detangle in sections as I take it down?!?! I feel like I should have thought of that but I had not. Thank you!
Pretty thick hair!! Eventually needs trimming because it’ll look even better! Love her techniques to not be a professional. She does well for her own hair👍🏽
❤❤2023 just landed here , wow very informative thank you sis😊
Thank you for this video. It was very helpful and your hair is so beautiful.💖💖💖💖
When this happens after protective braids I just take acv+water and put it in a spray bottle spray it on and it detangles it it's so much faster
Acv?
I saw another video that advised never to comb your hair when dry as it encourages breakage
She put in her moisturizer before combing. That moisturizer is water based so therefore her hair was not dry before combing.
My hair is permed and a lot of people is telling me to just moisturize it and comb everyday and it will grow. Of course, we also know protective hairstyles will grow my hair as well. I have two questions if you don’t mind because I want my hair to be as long as yours:
1. Do I just moisturize it and comb it every other day for it to grow when I don’t have protective styles in my hair?
2. When having braids in your hair as you had yours in the video, how would you take them down to cause less hair breakage?
Hair breakage I think is the bigger problem for me on why my hair doesn’t grow that much🥺.
