    I feel like a lot of the comments are missing the point of this video. Alopecia is very limiting as far as a range of styles. This video is about facing her fear and embracing a style that was “off limits“ to her. It turned out beautifully and I can’t wait to see more videos like this.

    Now that’s skill! It also proves the stylists that take their profession seriously do it for more than just money! This was a confidence boost! I love it!

    Traction alopecia is such a beast! And it is so EXPENSIVE to have any results to fix and theres no guarantee to fix it. And many women get it.... LOVE THIS!!! GOOD WORK! And love the work you do!!

    I have to find someone like you I have the same problem alopecia traction and it's so depressing and hard to find someone here in Las Vegas who cares about your hair and not just making money off of your problem THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS VIDEO AMEN😥🙏🏿

    These comments are crazy on a 8 min video. She knows her struggle & what she's tried & haven't trie & rhe reason for both.. We all have to do what makes us happy & brings us joy.. if shaving it all off works or adding hair works, then good.. thats y there's mltpl methods bc everything is not for everybody. i really just came to say.. Awesome job, she appears to be satisfied

    I love your technique. My daughter used this technique for my bald edges, & this worked great. My fixed edges makes me look a lot better. Honestly, I haven't found a professional hair braided in Riverside California that could do what you taught. Thank you 😊

    I love that you didnt pull and that is SO IMPORTANT- I will not go back to a person who pulls my hair.... and that is real. If they pull my hair Im out. They will never braid or touch my hair AGAIN!! And I tell them whiule they are doing it of course- "Thats pulling" and they usually say "ah- you tender headed" - im not tender headed. but any where near my sides.... I am not playing!

      Yes but she said she's had this problem for a while. The hair isn't growing back do what you want.

    • @senoradelvita
      @senoradelvita Рік тому +2

      The glue and the braiding will only make it worse. What she needs is to consult a trichologist, a good one can actually help her regrow the hair and advise on low tension hairstyles. Box braids only make traction alopecia worse and continuously styling the hair like this might make the alopecia irreversible.

    • @futuremindstutoringco.7338
      @futuremindstutoringco.7338 Рік тому +1

      Yes, it would, but it also seems like her hair will never grow back. She said, that she had been wanting to wear her hair up in a ponytail but was unable to. So, I concluded she's been wearing her hair down to let it breath and it is not growing back. So she probably figures, what do I have to lose.

    You may want to NEVER EVER allowing anyone to braid your hair & nor adding stress (extra hair) to pull it bad out.
    Reduce stress at all cost do not wear any tension to your scalp hairstyles if you are recovering from alopecia.
    Any Professional who cares will ever condone you doing so.
    I'll come back to watch

    Mine are gone like that but my dermatologist said it’s not traction alopecia, but my alopecia stems from my rheumatoid arthritis.
    It’s frustrating because the rest of my hair is down my back. I’ve thought about shaving it off but I know it will just grow back the same way😢

    • @aichaprofessionalhair
      @aichaprofessionalhair  Рік тому +3

      Great question! We apply low tension to the natural hair and do our best to make sure NOT to exacerbate any issues. We also teach proper care/maintenane (avoiding ponytails and other high strain styling that will pull the hair amongst other tips & tricks) during the session to make sure she leaves educated and returns with a healthy scalp and length retention. Thank you! ❤
