  • Hey guys! #MsnaturallyMary here! 👋🏾 In today's video I'm sharing some amazing #Naturalhair #clipins that are so versatile and blend really well with my #type4naturalhair. I initially thought about trying #tapeinextensions but it seemed that they would be too damaging to my hair. So I decided to try clip ins instead. I hope that you all enjoy this beginner friendly video. Be sure to like comment, and subscribe 🤗😘

    The shirkage is incredible because your hair is really long. My shirkage frustrates me. But no more perm for me and no blow out except on special occasions. Due you have any advise about split ends besides cutting them which I do occasionally.

    • @MsNaturallyMary
      @MsNaturallyMary  2 роки тому

      Thank you! I’m trying to do a better job of taking care of my hair under a protective style. As for split ends, ensuring that your hair gets enough moisture will definitely help! So applying a good moisturizing product and following it up with a good oil will be highly beneficial. Hope this helps 🤗
