Finally someone using minimal product and a minimal routine.
i loveee simple haircare 🥰
Yessss this is what I needed lol
@@LuxuriousLenay Agreed! I hope my hair grows. It took me 13 years to get shoulder length hair. My entire lifetime.
@@AestheticBlue13 Whaaatt??! How?? I hope your hair grows ❤

This was such a well done video . The commentary and the simple esthetic was very enjoyable and informative . I also loved how there was no music in between you talking so we could actually absorb what you were saying and understand what you were doing . ❤
i thought some would enjoy the no music. it tends to be distracting so i don’t want to add any in my videos for that reason. and thank you!
You’re absolutely stunning!
Thank you!
Why is it a good thing when your conditioner foams?
Yall dont think its sad that we need a beginners tutorial on hair we had our whole life lmao. Colonialism go crazy dont it
Ummm white people are also on this journey let’s not shame people for learning
@@Jessica.Shawnte white people dont have 4c hair what the fuck are you talking about 🙂 im shaming colonialism, not us.
@@Jessica.Shawnte white ppl are not learning how to take care of their 4c hair, Karen. My God. I am shaming colonialism, not my people.
You're right! But black talk has a point. Yes the 1a guys have hair tutorials but it's not usually this basic@@Jessica.Shawnte
@@Jessica.Shawnte no one is being shamed other than the colonialists who taught us to hate ourselves.
Also i believe a lot kf type 4 girls struggle because they dont detangle often. I detangle with hands 2 times a week and with a brush once a week. If other hair types went months without detangling their hair (even those wjth straight hair) will struggle to detangle their hair. 4c hair is not difficult to manage at all. It's just neglected and given bad image.
this exactly. straight/loose hair types brush their hair almost everyday, but most tight curly types go weeks/months before brushing and that’s what makes things so hard. they don’t realize their hair is locing/matting. washing 1-2 times a week is great!
there's also this weird obsession with type 4 girlies and shredding. If you're shedding 100 strands a day and haven't washed your hair for 3 weeks, that's 2,100 strands trapped in your head but for some reason people want to see the tiniest hairball.
This! I just started using the tangle teezer its a life saver. My hair is 4c medium strands and I have a lot of of it, so I only detangle on wash days about once a week. I agree its easier if you do it frequently when I wear box braids for a month detangling is always much harder. It’s not something I do often but I notice a big difference in the time it takes and the amount of shed hair I lose
True girl you telling facts
yep, I get complimates of how fluffy and soft looking my hair looks and I have short 4C hair (7in), because I had to shave my hair off completely ayear ago because of how damage it was from all the tight styles,wigs, and lack of moisture (my hair line was literally receding and I lost my edges)
mousturizing and properly detangling your hair is key, after that its so easy it takes me 5-30 min to do my hair depending on the style, and my hair as grown so much
As a type 4 hair girl your video was so refreshing. Your presence here on UA-cam is appreciated❤. Cant wait for the styling video
aww thank you so much!! 🫶🏾🫶🏾
I graduated cosmetology school and this video is singlehandedly more informative than everything i learned for how to care for Black hair as that school didn't teach a single thing about Black hair but to chemically alter it.
wow that’s sad, but I guess I shouldn’t be surprised :// im glad i could provide some insight, thanks for watching!
@yarsudani you're welcome and thank you for this video. Btw, I went to Empire beauty school and the school in Philadelphia is predominantly Black so it's a shame that they do not cater to our hair at all.
This video is a perfectly articulated demonstration of why washing (more) often and avoiding heavy products is so beneficial for us!! Thank you!
hehe thank you so much!!
I haven’t seen a girl with actual 4C hair. This is amazing. I’m literally in the middle of taking down my braids😅
Me too!
Me three
Me four 😊
I've been watching "HairTube" for more than a decade and I've seen 4C UA-camrs.
What I've not seen often is long hair with tiny tight curls and I can safely say Seun Okimi is part of that gang. Taking care of short/medium length 4C hair isn't the same as when you have long hair. I hope there will be more and more people sharing tips for long 4C hair
Me 5
As a teenage girl who is still learning her natural hair, this helped very much as I'm still learning how to wash and style my hair correctly. This video really helped for when I have my next wash day thank you ❤🥰
you’re welcome love!! 💖💖
fr! I am trying my hardest to really look into what to use for my hair and how to get it to grow more. I've gotten so insecure lately about how it looks and how it isn't long and straight and all tangled but I want to make a change and this video is one of many that will help me with that.
@@hopetothemax2561 God loves you! You can repent and believe that Jesus paid the price for our sins! He can give you so much love, joy and peace!💕😊
Same
You and your hair are a gorgeous combination. Thank you for showcasing HEALTHY, BEAUTIFUL 4C HAIR!!!
thank you!!
Yess!! I fully agree!
teenager in middle school , im finally learning how to wash my hair instead of doing it any type of way. 😂😂 , My hair used to be so damaged and now im finally getting to learn more about hair.
im a high schooler but washing my hair is so hard because i have anemia
@@XiaoIsMyHusbandBTWGoing to be a freshman next month but same and plus an iron deficiency.😢
Don't be a dumbass like me guys (I'm old as hell, 18) and I have never ever ever washed my hair by myself. I've hardly ever even oiled it or done anything to it besides keep it braided. It is severely damaged and I'll probably have to chop 60 percent of it off 😢 or all of it.
@@bubblelady8528 seconding you dude dont be a dumbass like me (20 btw) and not take care of your hair. My hair use to be down to my back but its so damaged and fragile now I'm gonna take it all out tomorrow (I have locs-)
@@bubblelady8528ur not old as hell
You are healing us while healing our relationship with our hair😊💞💘
that is my goal!! thank you sm!
My wash days are almost exactly the same! Your coils are so pretty!
thank you 🥰
I agree I usually wash once a week and my hair never dries out. That’s what makes it more manageable vs starting on dry matted hair. Don’t even let it get to that point. One time I washed my hair after 5 days recently and my hair was so soft and I detangled so fast my husband was surprised. My hair was happy and soft vs when I would go 2-4 weeks.
I am going to start washing my hair once a week. I need to see how my hair could be if I were to do this instead of washing 3-4 weeks.
I'm interested in starting to wash my hair more frequently (maybe not weekly but every fortnight). My question is: what do you do to your hair in between washes? Twists or some other styles? How do I minimise the time spent styling, because I'm still in school?
I’m so freakin happy that I stumbled upon your channel! I was getting so discouraged being natural and seeing so much anti-natural talk and rep on social media, especially short haired natural. It means so much to see someone on a similar journey to me. Thank you for being here! ❤️
you’re welcome!! i notice that too and want to create a space of natural hair love and appreciation :) don’t need any of that negativity
I'm so glad that you're on UA-cam and make these videos.
This is exactly the type of representation I wish I have had when I went natural many years ago
happy to hear it. i’ve always felt underrepresented so i’m becoming what i’ve always wanted to see 💖
this is kinda unrelated but if anyone is worried about water usage, you can turn off the water during the detangling process (make sure to throughly wet your hair though :))
Great comment ❤
Or use a spray bottle to keep wetting your hair
I loved watching this and relearning how to take care of my 4c hair
thank you beautiful!
i feel like keeping your 4c hair trimmed is another key aspect. because our hair is high in density and SO curly. the hair strands tend to loc on themselves and split. I saw so much improvement in moisture and health after regulary trimming my hair. and i loveeeeeee my hair and i love yours too and the representation!!!!!!! im so happy young black girls are growing up with role models like u. cheers to the revolution
yess healthy ends is key! i find that many people can’t afford trims or can’t find natural hair stylists i wish it was more accessible :// but i guess even self trimming can be beneficial! and thank you i’m happy to be apart of natural hair positivity 🫶🏾🫶🏾
that density one isn't really true for everyone though, I have a see through afro cause my 4c hair is sparse
do you trim your own ends?
How many times a year??
@@CaramelCupcakkeeYeah this comment lowkey added salt to my wound, some of us are struggling & have like 2 hair strands on our heads. What is true for one person isn’t true for everyone else lol
I don’t even have this hair type, but I watched through the whole video because it’s so relaxing. Thank you for providing this for people to use.
The shrinkage is crazy! But that’s the magical part. You can switch between a twa or a medium length twist out 😍
Thanks for the tutorial ive been meaning to simplify my routine to make it more easier and take less time to do it i cant wait for more videos❤
you're soo welcome! thank you for watching :)
This video was very satisfying to watch! Your hair looks so healthy. 😍
thank you love!!
yes!! I love to see the real 4c hair being represented. this is what the natural hair movement was supposed to be all about
Instead of attaching bunches of store bought hair, fake or someone else's, and/ or covering it with ugly sateen bonnets making the ridiculous claim of " protecting" it. How does courting scalp inflammation and alopecia with gunk and fake hair 24/7 " protect it? 😢
I want to wear my hair shrunken more but I shyed away because another youtuber said it damages it if you just wear it naturally so you should always have it braided. This is a really good washing routine , thank you. I will go back to wearing my hair shrunken and stop using combs now :D
it’s a shame a lot of people think the only way healthy to take care of 4c hair is to braid/stretch it. i’m happy to hear you wearing it more natural 🥰
Yes to un stretched hair! In my experience tight 4c curls thrive and are stronger when allowed to be in its natural un stretched self. Less manipulation and pulling and tugging is best
It really varies from individual to individual. My hair shrinks a lot and tangles easily so keeping it shrunken all the time can make it harder to detangle thus causing breakage. Some other people find it easier to take care of shrunken and the tension from always stretching cause breakage.
@@proudlyigbo6201 yes!
As a kid growing up in the 70's, hair wash day was torture. My mom would be so rough and all I would do is cry and scream, which led to getting hit. Now when it grows, I shave it down because I just don't want to deal with it.
I'm so sorry you went through that, sending you love. 💖
Yes! I definitely also dealt with trauma from getting my hair done. Which is why I also cut it down. I’m sorry you had to deal with that! 😓💕
Finally found a hair channel for tight curls. Your doing great work
thank you!
I've been trying to learn how to take better care of my hair, and this video was super informative!! I also loove your video style it's so relaxing haha. Looking forward to the rest of this series :)
thank you so much!!
This method (no oils or butters) has been a Godsend for me!! As someone with fine hair, oils and butters have been my greatest enemy!! 😭😭
Also, fantastic technique, every coily haired person needs to see this ❤
Now this is real 4C hair. Finally , the truth. Your hair looks exactly like mine. It is really hard to get our hair wet to shampoo. And it takes forever to dry. And the shrinkage it truly real.
Low porosity is a sign of healthy hair. Hair is hydrophobic in a healthy state and damaged hair is porous so even though it can be difficult sometimes know that it’s a sign of your hair being health.
Trueee
Even tho mine shrinks very much when my hair is wet and it looks like I cut my hair
People have told her that her hair is not 4c
@@KNt820 they lied
3:45 “😊 I feel like a DJ when I do this” idk why but that was adorable
This is for all black girls and women with kinky/coily/curly hair: our hair thrives 100% with NATURAL PRODUCTS 😊❤💚
One of the best 4C wash tutorials I've seen in a while! All the information is legit! Instant subscription👍. I've been having much better success this hair journey around because I'm already using these steps.
thank you!!💖
I have been having issues with my hair and I thought that putting more time between my washes (every 2 weeks) would alleviate it, but your video definitely changed my mind! I can't wait to try your tips this weekend
I am learning how to take care of my hair again after cutting off for so long. When it comes to the idea of taking care of my hair, I am so overwhelmed and don't know where to start. My hair and scalp have been dry and irritated lately and I always shed so much hair. Seeing you take care of your hair with such pride and joy is motivating. I will implement your tips. Thank you!
you got this!!🥰💕
I love to see videos of people that have the same hair as me sm, I shaved my hair for a fresh start this year and I got made fun of plenty times but I've made it compulsory to learn about it and not hate it
This was so relaxing to watch! Loved the presentation
thank you very much 🥰
so relaxing to watch and actual 4c hair and its so beautiful
😊 thank you
I always used to hear people talk abt how long their wash days were which discouraged me at the time cus i knew nothing about my hair but your vids have helped so much esp on tiktok and ive never spent more than one hour on wash day ❤
aw glad I could help!! i've felt the same before, seeing everyone complain made me feel like i should feel the same way but then i realized i don't and wash days are actually easy and enjoyable
That beginning and ending look is EVERYTHING
aw thank you!!
tried this routine!! it was great :) still took me very long bc i have fine breakage prone hair so i have to be careful with it but it felt way less like a chore
Your hair is so pretty & healthy and I love your smile! 😍😍 The simplicity of the video is super refreshing. Can’t wait for more!
Im about to go to war with my girlfriends hair and this helped me understand her hair so much oh my god thank you.
loved this! beautifully shot and really informative
thank you it means so much!
learnt so much from this video!!
yayyy :D
Your hair is so beautiful. This is the most therapeutic 4c wash day video I've ever watched. I learnt new things too. Thank you. I love this❤
not me being shook at the shrinkage while i have a whole head of shrinkage myself....
I loved this video! I had to subscribe immediately! Love from a Uk curlfriend girlfriend 🥰🥰 ❤️🙌🏿
yay! thank you!
This is exactly what my hair looks like!! It’s so hard to find people on youtube that have a similar hair type to me, and this is not shade at all but most of them look like my hair after a twist out or post braids and can’t really follow their tutorials, so I’m so glad I found this! Can’t wait to explore your channel :D
I don't use as much product as I did before when I was transitioning. It takes me a while to detangle my hair, but I can get it detangled easily from starting at the ends and working to the roots. Fortunately, it went from being high porosity to low porosity, so my hair doesn't dry as much as it did before.
I still need tips on how to maintain it 'cause there's still so much I don't know. I was also in denial of what my hair type was since I was in the middle of transitioning (thinking it was 4b but it looks closer to 4c, oops 🤦🏾♀). Love the video so much now that I know what to do with my hair!
Loved the video and great tips💗💗💗
thank you sm!
My scalp is gonna love me so much when i do this routine
yesss :D
Thank you as a while gf i want to support by partners manbun dreams. But his dad never wanted to get his hair done as a kid just a buzz cut. We are really grateful for the straightforward video.
Subscribed and turned on notifications. Your video was so informative. I always scratch my scalp and lately when I shampoo it irritates it. Will definitely be gentle and use my silicon scalp brush.
Your features are extremely gorgeous. Gosh
why does ur curls get longer in the shower instead of shring
4c hair is easy to do at that length.
My hair is long now, past bra strap so much harder because if I use the wrong product matting OR tangles.
Get it right when it’s short, so you don’t F up when it’s long,
1:51 your shrinkage is disrespectful smh
I have really long hair but I deal with tangles and matting at the scalp level so terribly so I’m going to try this method. Which me luck ❤.
My hair is currently in braids and this is making me miss it so much 😅 Great shampoo routine!
this was sooo good! please do a make up tutorial 😍
thank you! will do!!
The texture of you hair is awesome
thanks!!
Love this video. I have a teenage daughter who has 4C hair, so this video is just what I have been looking for. I love your explanations, your step-by-step instructions coupled with good video views, and your pleasant manner. Thank you so much for this research. ❤❤❤
Thanks I’m growing my hair out after shaving it all my life and im completely lost.
Is there 4d hair? Cause damn i feel like I'm past C 😂
The first thing that popped in my mind is " she's so beautiful 😍"...
I love your comment on shampoo! It’s not shampoo itself, it’s using the wrong type and also the frequency you use it that can lead to dryness and other stuff.
I’m a 3c curly hair girl and I’ve found your tips very useful ❤ thank you so much, you have such a beautiful hair.
thank you sm!🥰
My 4c hair is 10-12 inches and it also takes me 30-40mins to wash, detangle and dry
I know I cant be the only one who clicked on the video because she's beautiful, then subscribed with in secs. I need a new curl hair routine, but your gorgeous girl. werk!
Listen, 4c be sometimes extra, extra, but I love my hair ❤❤❤❤. She definitely has 4c
FINALLY A SUDANI SISTER W HAIR LIKE MINE ❤️❤️ I have always struggled with my hair. You have helped me feel more confident in my hair. Thank you so much, I hope u grow and help other girls with their hair love journeys 😘
4c videos like these are so satisfying 😊😊
I use the amika “the kure” line (green bottle). How do you like the hydra rush shampoo + condish?
i love the kure line! i tried it first and it helped strengthen my hair so much then I switched to using hydro more because i realized i need more moisture/hydration and only protein products 1-2 times a month. I use hydro rush most times and it’s great!
@@yarsudani Thank you love! When I run out of the kure I’ll give the blue line a try 😉
Jesus loves loves all and enjoy your day P.S turn to Him and get right with Him before it's too late ❤ Don't forget to pray ❤❤❤
I have been looking at old baby/kid photos and noticed my natural hair looks so much different than how it does now. My mom has been straightning it like crazy for years, resulting in damage and having a hard time loving my hair. I want my 4c hair back :)
🎉😊You should condition, band, & air dry to stretch it out. Then put it into two Ubercute scrunchie spacebuns 🤩😎👏🏽 IDK 😅 some would say no but I don’t think it’s a childish hairstyle.
lol i don’t care if a hairstyle is “childish” i love it all! maybe i’ll try this
It's been exposed that the hair typing system is inaccurate. All hair grows out of different sized circles from the scalp.

May go to the ofc site of J Ws to read the program and attend in the area nearest you.
I’m well aware of the controversy but i don't think it matters much. whatever we call it, it's a hair type, just like straight hair is a hair type. my tight curls can be referred to as such or "4c" or another name. i, as well as many others, just use these words to find people who have the same hair as us. thanks for the comment tho 👍🏾
@@yarsudani Thanks for your response.🙂
It's been exposed that most social media influencers are CIA agents/doppleganger agents with multiple accounts and fake personas chosen to promote the agendas and narratives of the satanic elite (Vatican Jesuits Catholics satanists luciferians Freemasons Kabbalah Jews). Social media management teams and social bots are also used.

This video was really helpful, thank you so much. I learned why it’s important to wash your hair regularly and I now understand why I could be struggling with scalp sensitivity. Could you please do a video showing how to wash/ keep your hair clean in braids because when I get braid I like to keep it for a long time especially when they were expensive but the my hair gets super dry and dirty.
glad it was helpful! as for braids, there are videos on youtube/tiktok of people washing their hair weekly in braids so definitely check those out! if i do get those hairstyles in the future i’ll be sure to show my washing routine then. 🫶🏾
Thank you so much
your voice is so calming
My hairs not even like urs i just wanted to watch😭💖
i think urs is 4b
nah its 4c
actually nvm its def 4b
Thank you so much 🥹❤️
this was so informative, pls do a styling video
up next!! x
you are so gorgeous
Oh, the water 💧 is running while you are detangling: water should not be wasted, angel.🎉
Good tutorial.
Your hair is lovely!🎉❤

Great video! I’m a guy looking for tips to better handle my 4c hair and this helped a lot
I like Denmark brush for 4c
i have to try it :)
I misread the thumbnail as "the cutest hair type" 🤭
perioddd😹😹😹
Can I follow this routine as someone who is trying to transition to natural hair, and quit using relaxer 3-6 months ago. whilst having damaged relaxed hair, i am also noticing a new natural hair growth under neath, i trim regularly and always have my hair in braids.
yes you can! your hair will thank you for it :)
Love this as a girlie with 4c hair in the twa stage ❤
I just want to share the gospel with everyone who will read this comment
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.”
John 3:16-18 NIV
Jesus invites ALL to believe in Him for the forgiveness of sins and to inherit eternal life!
very calming and educational to watch
Hi I'm mickella do you know how to grow 4b hair and can you help me do it with out using expensive products please I want long hair before I attend secondary schools I did my big time NGSA exam on may 2 and 3 can u please help me grow my hair
When did 4C hair become curly hair? Is this an African description of 4C, bcuz it's definitely not considered curly hair in the US.
thank you so much for this video! it is very helpful.
