It’s probably the permed part. She probably hasn’t had it cut since going natural
Ms. Lena Wish you were my Beautician 🤷♀️🦋🙏 today is the Kentucky Derby 🐎⚘
Nope... that's heat damage in the beginning of the video...she states this client had no relaxer in 4 years😳. If the average hair grows about 6 inches a year and you trim about 1/2 inch every 3-4 months thats equal to 2-3 inches off per year that's 3-4 inches of retention. That heat damage...wearing too straight too often.
What brand of flat irons do you use?

Am I the only European with straight hair fascinated by these types of hair treatments. The girls are all beautiful leaving their hair natural or straightened. The presenter has a lovely soothing voice you can tell she really cares about the care of the hair.
Thank you Anne
Nope. White lady hairdresser here. We're not given enough opportunity to learn on natural hair. I am obsessed with the textures. I have 3C and 4C mannequins. I am prepared if a client wants to let me do my thing.
No you are not. MANY of you are super fascinated with us for some reason.
I hate to break it to you all, but if you get your hair flat ironed regularly you get a lot of the straight ends. This is especially true if you don't have a super coarse texture of hair. Its kind of unavoidable unless you don't regularly press your hair. Those of you who just started wearing natural hair recently and wear it curly all the time don't know what those of us who have been wearing a press n curl for 30 plus years know, this is what regularly pressed hair looks like natural, it will lose some of the curl and be "heat damaged" as you all call it, but I don't consider it that way, my hair has been that way with curls and some straight pieces for 30 years, yet my hair is down my back and very silky. And I don't chop off my straight strands, i leave them and just get a trim 2 to 3 times a year. You can't have the same expectations of perfect uniform curls on someone who regularly gets a press, for many of us we do get straight strands but still have gorgeous hair that grows.
Agreed, thank you for sharing. This is to be expected from hair that is regularly flat ironed. For ladies who wear stretched hair all the time, and not wash and go styles, they are usually not bothered by loosen curls... The preference of the wearer is what matters.

I straighten my hair every two weeks and I have absolutely NO straight ends. I use my flat irons on 420 and I have never had any heat damage.
Yeah agreed. If you press your hair out quite frequently the “curl integrity” is lost since hair does what you most frequently tell it to do
ggsnaps that’s true.. I’ve stopped relaxing for one year now and it’s so refreshing to see my natural curls. I’ve snipped off my straight ends and since I have type 3 hair, I’m so careful with heat styling and flat ironing.
Right off the bat those straight ends bothered me😕
Mahogany Butterfly I said the same thing
Mahogany Butterfly heat damage
Mahogany Butterfly I said the same thing. She has heat damage 😞
I know right... I was like am I mistaken or is this heat damage. She should've mentioned that in the video, I feel betrayed now lol. Update: I heard her mention the damage at the end so , maybe I missed it at the beginning.
Honey me too.
I definitely appreciate the care you used with her hair. A lot of salons see natural hair and assume it’s coarse then proceed to fry it.
Thank you 😊
You are truly amazing Lena! Thank you for taking the time out to share your wonderful tips and tricks with us. God bless you. I wish you all the success in life. Thank you.
Keyania Warren thanks hun!
Girl You Did An Amazing Job And You Give All The Details And What Kinds Of Irons To Use For Your Hair And Products To Use In Your Hair To Keep It Moisturize And Dryer. Thank You So Much For Your Video
Thank you
Great job,detailed and very informative.Thank you so much.
Thank you for viewing
Thanks for the video I am a hairdresser and I’m learning how to style natural hair and your video was very helpful!
Thank you for watching. Glad I could help
I needed that tutorial... My daughter and granddaughter have 4C hair and I would like to silk press it and give then the care free styles I know they need... Thanks bunches...
Your welcome, glad I could help
Thanks lena for sharing! Easy to follow, very professional! Thanks!
Thank you for your kind words
Is she gonna keep her heat damaged ends? Is continuing straightening going to make it worse?
ayamejoy no, at the end of the video I explained we cut the damaged ends. As long as she continues to get it professionally straighten, she won't have a problem.
Up to the client to get them clipped.
Or maybe she never big chopped and thoes are relaxed ends
Blackcoffee S ppl really be wanting to hold onto that “length”
@@kloviedash4648 and that's okay. it may not be everyone's cup of tea but right now she may not be ready to do a big chop and is more comfortable with doing it bit by bit.
You just damm good and patience,I wouldn't have so many bad hair days with a stylish like you. ☕
Thank you Denise
You go girl that was NICE! Thank you for this video...
Thank you for viewing
Thanks for showing us the products you use ❤️
No problem, thank you for watching
Great job. Nothing like real and bouncy hair. The tutorial was on point.
Thank you vonne
Your an amazing hair dresser. God bless your continued work. Love always.
wonderful video Lena! What I especially loved about your video was the time and care that you spent with her hair prior to flat ironing it. I sent your video to my stylist who does a great job on my hair but sometimes I feel like he's rushing through my hair and not using the proper treatment prior to using the hot comb and flat iron. Prior to all of that, once he has washed my hair, he has me sit under the dryer and my hair dries really fast. He uses a cooler temperature when drying my hair now because it was way too hot initially and I was constantly lifting the dryer from my head. And my scalp tend to be flakey which I did. oh see on any of the girls who were having their hair done. I had my hair flat ironed two weeks ago and at the end of one week, it was looking very dull and in need of a curling iron on the ends. Thankfully I have an hair appointment tomorrow. Thank you for sharing your video and your expertise.
Thank you for your kind words
Need your services Lena you did a GREAT JOB
Thank you, if your in Georgia look me up
Great video and instructions for natural hair.
Thank you for your kind words
Her hair looks like mine when it's wet and silked out...I had my hair professionally done and my curls were back poppin...Product build up can cause that stringy look as well as heat damage...I wouldn't be so quick to grab the scissors especially if the person just needs a good wash....beautiful job!!
Thank you
You've made their hair beautiful!
Thank you for noticing
4yrs?? So she has heat damage?? I’m coming up on 4 yrs in 3days and my hair is down to my elbow after a wash. Can’t wait until my first silk press!
Good job!
No she has damage from the perm
Very nice! Thanks for the tips!
Very thorough description! Thank you! Continued blessings to you!
Thank you for your kind words😘
Ughh I want a slick press done so badly😌❤
Awesome job looks really great,thanks for video.
Thank you for watching
I’ve been scared of round brushes ever since I was a kid 😬 I let a friend of mine try to “do my hair” and she got it stuck in my hair!!!!! I haven’t been near one since 😅😂
Whydoyouneedtoknow it definitely takes skill🤣. I never recommend using one without practice because it can turn into a bad situation
Thats funny same happened to me only it was my cousin lol
Her hair looks beautiful and healthy.
Thank you for your kind words
Beautiful great job sis!
Thanks dear😘
Black people you guys are amazing at hair btw I wish I had hair like this I love it so preetty
Very pretty end results! *This just goes to prove that Natural hair does not AUTOMATICALLY equal Healthy hair! (Client appeared to have Heat damaged ends and shallow edges).
Your correct
@@vanessasherman1560 ?
But the damage happened before she came to Ms. Lena. it was Not caused by her. However, if she continues to receive professional hair care/ products, I believe she can and will achieve healthy results in due time.😍
Heat damage is inevitable no matter what heat protection one uses if this is done over and over. Over time the hydrogen bond will be broken yo the point of no return and all elasticity will be list.

Looks great I'm going to try the round brush next time I do my daughter's hair. I do her hair good but never can get it as straight as the hair stylists
Make sure you practice first on a mannequin because this brush can get tangled in the hair and cause major damage without experience. Let me know how it turns out😘
If I were to do this to my own hair what would be the difference with the blow dryer you use and the blow dryer with a comb and brush? Wouldn't that be easier to use? you did a wonderful job with her hair
It depends on the texture, for really course hair the blow dryer attachments would not be suitable and sometimes impossible
Very nice. What did you wash and condition her hair with. What helped detangle it?
Thank you, Sulfate free Morraccan shampoo and conditioner
Great work! Great tips!
Thank you 😊
That was AMAZING. Thank you. How can that be done for short hair?
Yes, definitely
Perfection at it best! Simply Beautiful. 🤗
Thank you for your kind words 🥰
Wow! The end. 😍
Thanks!!
Turned out beautiful 😍
Thank you so much
Beautiful job on her hair! I’m wondering how you decide what temperature to use on which hair textures? Thank you :-)
You Have to know your textures in order to determine the heat settings. Fine hair about 300 -350 medium texture 350-375 very course 400-430
Beautiful results
Thank you!
Ms.Lena I have to say you did a excellent job very detailed I have natural hair I'm 5yrs old been doing my own I'm scare to do my own Flat Iron tho But you did your Damn thang Wishing you many Blessings iv learn alot from your Video 🕊🙏🦋💯🌟
Thank you Janice for your kind words
What hair type is this? This looks similar to my daughters hair. Especially when I seen it parted. Thanks for the tips, I’m going to apply this to my daughter hair.
Her texture is fine and curly
Ms Lena I meant I'm 57 years old and your very welcome 🤦♀️
Do you have a video explaining how much heat should be applied to natural hair according to hair texture and porosity? I would really love to see that one.
Awesome video thanks for the tips.
Your welcome.. thanks for viewing
I wish I could do that to my hair!
You can 😊
Thanks for the tips!
Your welcome 🤗
Awe shes so pretty. ^^ Nicely done.
Thank you for your kind words 🥰🥰
I love it. Take care,
Kate, theflutterby🦋🌈
Thank you Verlena
Thanks for not playing funky music and puckering your lips. Great video.
🤷🏽♀️thanks for watching
Are you able to put a link to the 1/2 inch flat iron that you're using. I have replayed your video more than a few times to try to get the name of the flat iron. I also went to go Google it. Still couldn't find it. But if you can put a link to buy this flat iron. I would greatly appreciate thar. Thank you. Also beautiful work!
Since this video I dropped my 1/2 inch iron and broke it😫 and I cant seem to find one anywhere, Ive had that iron for 5yrs so maybe they longer make it....it is the Solia "C" shaped travel size iron...PLEASE let me know if you are able to find it in your search❤
Great video ❤
Thank you
Thank you for video hair is beautiful ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you beautiful for your kind words
Thanks so much for sharing this hairdo process. I didn't think that our hair (Negroid Natural) could get straight like that without a chemical relaxer. I'm not fond of chemicals, so this was extremely helpful for me to watch.
It looks like she still has perm in her hair
You did a beautiful job on her hair as well as explaining how to do it.
Thank you so much for viewing
Nice ,I'm going to use these products and technique for my hair . I'm still not sure about the paddle brush or that round brush . I've never used a brush in my hair ,just a pick or wide tooth comb.
It definitely takes a little practice
I need Ms. LENA to fix my hair
😁
Beautiful!!
Thank you 🥰
Her hair is extremely damaged ...
Hi if your still giving advice I need help. So my blow out comes out pretty straight and when I flat iron my hair it gets really straight but it doesn't bounce or move barely its pretty stiff. My hair type is 3c/4a in the front and 4b in the back and its pretty thick I have been natural all my life
The end results were flawless.
Thank you so much
Little bit of heat damage but turned out nice
Hey should I skip my regular leave in conditioner and just apply the heat protectant ?
I would use a regular moisturizing conditioner that rinses out as well as the heat protectant. But Not a leave in conditioner, it will weigh the hair down. Hope this makes sense
Beautiful I will try that
Thank you Betty
Oh so I need to purchase all of the products next time
iamsunflower2011 😀
Excellent video
Thank you
Anytime!
Excellent and informative
Thank you
Wht can I use on my hair. I'm Irish and Cherokee and my hair is soooo frizzy but everything I use makes my hair very very oily..even WHN I use a defrizzer it goes right back 2being very frizzy.. It drives me batty my hair is very soft but very frizzy..plz help
Tammy Salazar chi or aveda products
Lena, I’m new here.. what products would you recommend to care for and protect your natural type 2 hair from future heat damage after silk pressing? Thanks Miss Lena. 🌺
A thermal heat protectant, Chi has a good one
Lena B thanks for the love Miss Lena.. right back at ya! ♥️ Thanks also for the CHI products advice. That’s awesome. 👍🏼 Oh sorry my hair is a type 3 not 2.
Miss Lena, I just wished my hair would stay straight after I go outdoors after I flat iron. . As soon as the moisture in the air gets to it.. it’s goodbye straight hair. I love my natural type 3 curls but I prefer to not wear them to work; so I end up putting my hair in a ponytail. One year ago, my hair was at my ear length.. now it’s at my collarbone. So it’s growing slowly but it’s such hard work to maintain it. I trim every two weeks and all my previous relaxer ends are all gone. I’m going to purchase the CHI products and maybe Kenya Moore’s products and the flatirons you use as well. Thanks Lena! 🙌🏼
Im confused, did you start blow drying on dry hair or was it washed and wet to begin with?
Great video. Thank u. Im getting married and i cant afford to get my done by anyone so i came here. Thank u so much💗
Your welcome and CONGRATULATIONS 🎉🎈
Interesting. I use the round brush for the entire routine. I may try the flat brush first. Lovely job
Thank you so much
Excellent, professional video...10+, Thank U for sharing 😊
thank you for viewing
Very informative, thank you
Your welcome
you got it straight without the flat iron
just curious how long does that silk press last, until you have to redo it again?
About one to two weeks
Beautiful thx for the tips 💖
Thank you Shay
So, how did you wash it? I think I am using too much product, because my hair is thick but I can never get it straight like this on my own. It comes out thick straight and it looks like a blow out at the end.
Using a moisture shampoo and conditioner
Can someone please educate me on the difference between this and getting a wash and set from the Dominicans. I am natural & I keep hearing about this silk press for natural hair but it looks exactly the same as when I get a wash and set. They blow out then flat iron just the same so its still the same amount of hear on my hair. So what are the benefits and differences of a silk press vs. a wash and set?
Stephanie I honestly cant answer about the Dominican salon, ive never been and have only heard rumors about different things they use. But for me personally the difference is the type of products that are used. The silk press takes more concentrated products to give off the silky bouncy look and feel
What products work for non-frizz so my hair can stay straight all day?
Aveda or Chi
Oh, so that is it! Go over it quickly so that I cannot feel the heat, because I do not want to burn my scalp. Thanks! 😊
Your welcome
Please do a silk press tips and tricks for relaxed hair 😍
It's not considered a silk press for relaxed hair. The results won't be the same because of the chemicals in the relaxer
Some of my ends are straight like that. I have not had heat since the chop. I have cut them 4 times. Still straight on some ends
Then your hair is breaking off. Are you deep conditioning?
I would love to get those products, so I could try it🙂.....where in Europe? pls🎉
Unfortunately Im not sure what products are offered in your location.
Thank you for watching
What brand of shampoo and conditioner do you recommend for thick African-American hair?
A moisture rich shampoo thats SULFATE FREE
Omg is this smth I can book for? And is this in the Uk?
Excellent
Thank you for your kind words
Can you use a comb attachment on the blow dryer
The brush holds the hair tight and small bristles give you more straightening. So no a comb attachment will not get you those results
Nice cambium list profects
So shiny!
Yes🤗
Can yo show us a video doing this on 4c natural hair?
I will try to remember. Thank you for watching
@@lenab7532 if 4c is coarse, please let us know if this work on us, don't want a relaxer, not a friend of braids, PLEASE REPLY!!
The same Technique works on all hair types
Love it
Thank you Kim
Is a round hair brush good for fine hair? Mine has grown a good bit but I wish it was thick like my girls hair. They didn't get that from me. They have long thick hair. My oldest does anyway bit her lip sis is not far behind.
As long as you have experience using a round brush it’ll be ok
What moisture shampoo and conditioner do you recommend
Moroccan brand or Cantu
Very nice hair!! I would really love to see you do a product review of Straight Silk Spray by JuniorLabs. It absolutely maintains my hair soft and flowy ❤️
I’ll have to look it up, thanks for watching
I like to get my hair silk pressed, but every time I do, the stylist puts too much heat on it. Can I get my ends trimmed without getting a silk press. My hair is very soft.
For sure. But for a more accurate trim I do suggest at least blowing it out
Thank you 🙏🏽
Your ends are probably already damaged before the heat. Yes you can trim hair in its natural state but once you straighten it you will see that it isn't even
Loved your video, How long does silk pressing take?
About two weeks depending on your lifestyle
@@lenab7532 Thank you, I don't think I phrased my question correctly (sorry) How long does the process take to do?
Oh no, I totally read it wrong. I thought it said how long does it last.
The service can range from 1.5 - 2 hours depending on the thickness of hair.
@@lenab7532 We all make mistakes lol , Thank you!!
Good job
Thank you
