My issue with stylists is that they don’t know how to detangle natural hair, so they rip through your hair with paddle brushes, fine toothed combs, etc. and ask why you didn’t detangle before coming. Even though you DID detangle.
OMG. She took that damn paddle brush and was brushing my curls. Really. I was pissed. Oh and she said shes trying to go natural. Well I told her you will need to learn about it to be about it.
nurseemmanuelle .......Not to sound racist or anything, but cosmetology schools usually teach methods for white people's hair and not ours. They have gotten hip to separation of product....they know it takes different products for our natural hair, but they still use the same methods for caring for our hair and it's just not so. You can't comb or brush our hair the same as you would a white person. A fact that they have not accepted yet. Our hair IS different and should be treated as such. Nothing is wrong with that, why pretend that we can use the same products and care for it the same way?
I'm white but I have curly hair, and I absolutely cannot brush it when it's dry. I don't even go to hairdressers anymore because it's so damn painful when they brush my hair out. I cut it at home
I had a white stylist wash my hair. She only washed it two times. I scratch my hair and a mountain of dirt is in my nails! I couldn't even feel the girl's fingers on my scalp! Then her manager had the NERVE to say I don't have "normal hair". She's lucky she caught me when I was young and ridiculously patient, cause I just ain't got time for that sort of foolery these days.
1. Stop going to a salon, learn your hair yourself! 2. Pay attention to the ingredients in your hair products (if you don’t recognize the first 3 ingredients, d r o p i t) 3. Create a hair regimen 4. Listen to your hair 5. Use low manipulation styles 6. Wear your hair in stretched styles (especially if it is very kinky) 7. Deep condition weekly 8. Learn your hair porosity (try some at-home tests) 9. Moisturize your hair properly
Honey aesthetic think of your hair being your mouth and your hair products being the food. A lot of people like to know everything they’re eating and avoiding chemicals. Of course though, do what works for you! A lot of people don’t strictly follow every one of these rules, they’re just helpful guidelines she pointed out in the video :)
That’s my problem, I don’t deep condition. That stops now. 2018 will be the year I get this hair together. In Jesus’ name. Amen. Update 05/24/20: I decided to cut my hair again (about 5-6 inches off) back in October. I'm doing much better with conditioning regularly. My hair is healthier, but I haven't reached full Afro goals yet. (The goal I've set for myself) Hope everyone else is staying safe during this global situation and taking time for self care. Be blessed!
Story time!! When I was in school the dismissal bell rung, and I was making my way down the hall. I was wearing an afro that day, and it's pretty big. These two girls were talking and one of them said "I like your hair!", so I said "thank you" and kept walking. Her friend turned to her and said "you know that isn't real right?", the first girl said "I know but it's still pretty". I almost tripped over.
You did a very good job in explaining the concept of giving your hair attention. One of the most important things we can do is stop using cheap products on our hair. It deserves more.
Linda Mack expensive products don't wrk on all hair types. I understand wut u mean about our hair desire but there r cheap products that are really well wit sum ppl textures n they have retained plenty uv growth from it. Most uv these expensive products that r made for tighter coarse textures jus cost too much n they taking that muny rite out uv our pocket wen it's not even helping our hair. But bcuz most uv us r so quick 2 go buy these trending xpensive products it's slowly breaking us n the companies noit. I do not use xpensive products on my hair n my hair hav been fine n stil thriving.
Yeah tbh shea moisture, cantu, creme of nature and as i am does not work for my hair at all. The only conditioner my hair likes is the tresemme moisture rich. Everyones hair is different. Keep doing whatever works for you!
Hey, no disrespect but it's not about the cost. It's about the content, use organic products and you should be fine. I'm lucky, I live in West Africa so I just use what we have that grows naturally here. It's waaaaaay cheaper and my hair loves local products. Especially sheabutter, buttermilk (man shanu) and palm kernel oil. Black soap is another fave
Zeezam MG I feel u. Its wut wrks 4 each individual. Even those who don't use organic products still retain much growth n their hair is super healthy. I do understand that the most natural products will benefit us most but even non-organic products wrk jus as well 4 sum uv us
Sando D Same here! The hairdressers are so impatient and actually get annoyed when you tell them to be gentler!To avoid conflict,I just decided to be doing my own hair and I can see a HUGE difference!
Princess Kay I've never heard of anyone going to a stylist and them NOT cutting more that inch or more. I don't know what theses stylist don't understand. Maybe if I was to go to one and use the phrase "just DUST my ends", and maybe they won't go scissor happy. lol.
Khalidah Kamal yes I’m a start using that phrase. they be getting mad tight like sis I done put blood sweat & tears to get this shit to grow & u gt cut off all my hard work like that. I be ready to square up. 🤦🏾♀️😭😂
Princess Kay LOL! I HATE conflict but I don't trust myself if I went to a "stylist" and my is cut so short almost damn near to my ears. That's why I just won't go to them.
Khalidah Kamal that actually just happened to me as well. After 5yrs of being natural my hair had grown mid back length. I went just before Thanksgiving to get my normal blow out and a trim but instead she CUT not trimmed but CUT my hair into a shoulder length bob. When I tell my you my heart hit the floor. But surely on the pursuit to growing it back longer and healthier.
so i have been looking on videos on how to grow your hair and i feel like this helped a lot on my natural hair journey even though i am 12 i need to learn at a young age
The stylist I was going to would charge an additional $25 for a trim here in Chicago. It was more like a Cut every time so I decided to test her one day. I had my hair done by one of the other stylist in the salon when she wasn't there. This new stylist proceeded to trim my hair (like they love to do) and I left shortly afterward. When I returned to my normal stylist a short time later for a blowout, she insisted that I needed a trim. I told her, "It was literally cut recently. I SERIOUSLY doubt I need a trim." She continued to give this BS excuse as to why I had to have one and I Realized then, that it was always about the additional $25 she was trying to make. It wasn't about health or what she really thought I needed. Ole girl had just been chopping my hair off for no reason at all. Learned my lesson.
cheterry17 That's why I go to Supercuts. If you ask for a trim of the dead ends, that's all they'll do. However, if you ask for a full cut, they'll do that as well.
25 is cheap as heck try 150 I live in burnsville Minnesota i havnt been to my stylist in over 7 years I've been natural since the 6th grade my choice my mother never let me get my hair done with weave thank God it's ugly anyways I don't like it my natural hair is beautiful the way it is the only thing I've ever done was straighten my hair until I realized my natural curl looks way better than my natural hair straight
I get what you mean, some stylists have individual sales goals and the store as a whole does as well. Sometimes it more about greed than hair. Sorry that, that happening to you.
Girl you're spot on with the scissor happy hair stylists!!! I make sure I trim my hair a couple times a year and just cut it when it's dry and if my ends feel thin and weak. These stylists LOWKEY be Hattin on how long some people's natural hair is and they just wanna CHOP CHOP CHOP.😒
Right!! And if you notice, alot of these stylist dont even do their own hair (which i never understood 🤷🏽♀️). But can maintain someone else's. Maybe if they tried to maintain their own hair as well, it can look like our hair, ya think.....🤔🤔
@@Danni215 I feel the same you do and I'm a Stylist. I NEVER trimmed anyone's hair like a CUT b cuz I don't like that either. I've been to Stylist THAT TRIED IT😕 and I'm no don't even and I make sure they know I'm a Hair Stylist also so only go to someone for a sew-in and I trim my own ends, treatments so when I go to someone just do my HAIR I do EVERYTHING else vitamins, water etc that is how I grew my hair out, and also leaving it alone been HAPPILY NAPPY for 8 yrs now 😊
This video actually helped me a lot because I didn't know that you should moisturize BEFORE putting oils in. I used to just put coconut oil in my hair overnight and I always wondered why my hair still felt dry especially after I washed it but now I understand. Hopefully my hair will continue to grow healthier and longer now that I can change my routines!!!
It's so true about the hair salon. My neighbor was a stylist and she said they are not into styling hair pass the shoulders because it cost them time and money, and no business survives when you're losing time and money. Look around. How many long time customers have long hair?
T I R Z A H trim when ends get rough, moisturize, low manipulation styles, if you use products with silicons make sure to use a sulfate shampoo every two weeks or four, every month or two weeks do a protein treatment, did I say low manipulation because too much will break your hair. Have a good day 🙂
NaturalReign hey is it true that water is moisture? Do you use wild growth oil? If so does it work? I need your help please. My hair has a lot of Dandruff's and I don't know why. It's damaged and very dry and it's short. Help me please what should I do.
Haven’t even watched the full video yet & i already 100% agree with the dont go to your stylist tips. I had a stylist i was going to since i was little and never saw much growth till i left & started doing my own hair.
This is probably the best video I’ve seen on hair growth. Thank you sis! I like how you give the tip and then explain the science behind it. For example, I know porosity is a big deal but I didn’t understand why. Also, learning your own hair and not putting your fate in the hands of your stylist is a big one. Thanks again, great video
"Healthy hair grows" I like that. In the last years I would be in a stressful job and it affected my health and hair health and today I am already in reverse and heal mode, changed my job and going vegan, so how would you go about supporting and nourishing the scalp, increase blood circulation, and the follicle?
I agree with the #1 reason! A lot of stylist have just switched to natural care, so they're learning too! I agree with you lady, learn your hair yourself! Be consitent with your hair is soooo TRUE! Love honey.
The moment you said stop going to the salon is when I clicked the thumbs up button! I watched this entirely and think this will help me. I'm determined to stay natural and not just for a few months as I've done in the past.
I really liked what you said about knowing your hair. I haven't been to a salon In over 10 years. I've been taking care of my hair since. I use to get perms but I stopped in 2008 now my hair had broken off and I really didn't know what to do so I decided to braid my hair and really take care of it. Then aftèr awhile i notice that my hair was growing the only thing I did was to leave my hair alone for at least 3 months at a time then I would wash condition my hair and it worked , now my hair is to my bra stap in the back and as of now I still were my hair in braids but I deep condition my hair evèry two weeks I don't use a lot of shampoo but I do wash my hair and deep condition it more.
This is the put on! Thank you, because I was clueless, because I have had my hair in locks for over10 yrs... N now I'm a new type of natural with my original curl.. SO this is super helpful! Thank you!
Thanks for the response. I am giving my hair more attention than I use to and through couponing able to try more things. Some work some don't. One of the best products I have tried is aussie moisture products. The deep conditioner is extremely good.
I have not been to a salon in 9 years!!! I don’t miss it!!! Lol! I have been doing my own hair since 2009 when I started transitioning and especially since I went natural in 2010.
Very informative I agree. I always say listen to your hair and I agree with the salon visits. During the consultations I need to know exactly what products you plan to use and the process your going to use. Awesome video.
This was so helpful, thank you! I just recently cut ALL my hair off in April to start over with my natural journey so I need all the help I can get. Loved this video, definitely subscribed ❤️
Girl I feel you!!!! I say the same things in my videos!! I 100% agree with all the steps provided. These same tips have helped me obtain healthy and long hair.
you're so pretty girl and have a lovely good energy + vibe. Thank you for the tips, been watching you for a while your hair inspires me so beautiful! Much love
All of your points are correct except for the last one. There are moisturizing oils and sealant oil. A moisturizing oil could be olive oil while a sealant oil can be castor oil.
Chanel Valentine thank you! I learned something new. My biggest point that I was trying to stress is that I would not just use an oil on my hair. It just isn’t enough for my hair and also for a lot of people with natural hair.
KLove I know diet plays a role in hair health. I don't eat meat. However everyday I have ground flax seed, chia seeds, take B12 and drink tons of water. My hair is long and healthy.
KLove If you're asking if I drink alcohol, I will drink socially, a few times a year. As for dairy, yes! I love my cheese. However, non-dairy milk; almond or flax milk. My everyday drink is water and green tea, no soda.
Thank you for explaining about the porosity thing and oil...I was putting oil and my hair remained dry!! I just tried your method and yes, now I know I have a low porosity hair. Thank you!!!
Subscribed bc of this video. Hair texture twins. I totally feel this video. It spoke to me. Will be using the tips. I'm all natural but have been using on this journey for years just learning on my own with no guidance. I just been listening to my hair and what has always worked for it since I was a child. I've picked up on no nos and bounced back quickly from scissor happy stylists that went in on my hair or bad hands in my head that just didnt belong and my hair broke off with protective styles and myself nourishing it back to good health and growth. Now I am actually taking guidance as to understand what I am doing bc it is at a length I do not want to mess up and want to continue to feed and grow.
This was very helpful, especially the part about checking the ingredients on the products. I haven't done that, but I am doing it today! I also appreciated hearing that the oils lock in the moisture that you already have in your hair instead of moisturizing your hair. Thank you for these helpful hints!
I'm so happy that you didn't say anything about rice water or protein formula or any of that shit which did not work. Your routine seems legit and trustworthy. Thank you so much for the advice! You have gotten a new subscriber!
You are spot on with that first tip! I like my hair stylist she's really nice and very gentle with my hair, but I noticed that I retain more length and my hair grows more when I do my hair. I just don't do my hair because I'm SO LAZY!!! Lol! But 2018, I'm going to try to do my own hair more.
ad0re.faith it does...in my father's family side, their hair tends to grow really fast, my paternal grandmother had long hair until she was in her 80s (we are 300% black from Ivory Coast - West Africa) However, it's definitely not the same on my Mother's side, women don't have thick, long hair which grows fast.
Stéphanie Faye okay to a certain point you are correct but she is right genetics do not matter no matter your black white hispanic Japanese whatever it doesn't matter it just matters how you take care of it with products you put in it and acts like your grandmother's or your mom what put would they put in their hair and that's basically that you're next part and everything else is correct so and on my mom's side is Hispanic black white and Geechee Indian so oh my dad's side is white german-irish black Native American Etc so my hair my hair grows fast back but you just have to take care of it and you will see results
genetics most definitely play a huge role in how fast your hair grows! but if ur not taking care of it well, your actions are to blame, not your genetics. idk what sum of yall up there talm bout “it barely plays a role”
Thank you for the tips. I watched your video twice and purchased the fro butter. I currently wear my hair in protective styles. I just started taking a multivitamin and drinking more water. I’m hoping my hair responds well to these changes. Thank you again!!
I'm 3.5 minutes in and have to add this vid and the next to my watch later list, but I am so here for this. thank you for the posts. I am head nodding all the way and literally laughing out loud while taking note. I'll b back!
"If you made it to the end of this video, you a real one!" 😂😂😂😂 Love it!! I stopped going to my beautician for 5 months and really notice the difference. And yes people ask if I'm wearing a weave. Nope I just love my hair so I treat it right.
I agree on the hair routine because when i washed my hair with conditioner every week then shampoo the last week my hair grew a lot. But im in college and I do a lot. I really dont have time to have a hair routine and my hair breaks off a alot. I do wear wigs as well so i dont touch it but my hair gets dry a lot as well. Its just a lot in college.
Had to pause the video for a second . I’m in the process of combing out my locs so I’m watching so many new videos that I’ve missed over this past year of locing my hair (I missed actually doing my hair and I was only going to loc them for a year anyway) anywho, you mentioned she wasn’t trying to work with you with your hair and it forced you to cut her off and that in return had you learn your hair and had it grow . People need to take this advice passed their hair . If someone , an actual PERSON is holding you back from your goals , they aren’t trying to listen and communicate with you , CUT THEM OFF ! You will learn who you are like you learned your hair , and you will grow as a person like as your hair grew ! We can’t let nothing hold us back whether it’s our hair , our lives , our careers , friendships , anything ! This is OUR LIFE ! WE are in control ! Thanks for sending this message indirectly even if you didn’t know that’s what you did but that hit home for me and you have definitely won a new subscriber . Sorry for taking everything so deep #Scorpio 😂😂
I love it! And Yes - My hair done grown so much since I left perms, and my stylist! My stylist told me to use creme on my hair, and that is the trick to Natural hair. When you on a budget - you can use your EBT Card, and buy Olive oil, or Coconut oil and DIY!
Anything that grows and moves is LIFE , you guys may not realize it but your hair is LIFE . Talk to it , nuture it , speak life unto it and it will flourish .
Amen.. to that...totally agree that my stylist just love her scissors and always love to chop chop... so i stop ..I learn to deal with my hair... .But honestly I am so in love with your hair... which i stared u Making my own oils and products... because all I spend on didn't work for me
My issue with stylists is that they don’t know how to detangle natural hair, so they rip through your hair with paddle brushes, fine toothed combs, etc. and ask why you didn’t detangle before coming. Even though you DID detangle.

Hopefully my hair will continue to grow healthier and longer now that I can change my routines!!!
I have to add a little water to oils when moisturizing my hair. If not it would be greasy and dry
I don't know why people be acting like black people can't have good hair💯❤
GOOD HAIR? What is good hair?
No such thing!! Either your hair is kept or unkept!
Ikr! People act like black people can't have long hair and automatically have to assume it's a wig like damn! 🙄
Healthy hair is good hair.
Gabriell Williams we all have good hair 😍❤️❤️it’s in our culture
It's so true about the hair salon. My neighbor was a stylist and she said they are not into styling hair pass the shoulders because it cost them time and money, and no business survives when you're losing time and money. Look around. How many long time customers have long hair?
EH CBunny good point. I stopped going because my friend's stylist gave her a perm without telling her and burned the F*** outta the side of my head.
I’m 16 Finna be 17 with 4c hair shoulder length by 18 I want it down my back before college
Hell Queen yeah lol
How it’s going so far? I’m 4C and trying to be BraStrap Length in 3months. Im 2 Yrs Natural and at Collarbone length
Do you have any tips
T I R Z A H trim when ends get rough, moisturize, low manipulation styles, if you use products with silicons make sure to use a sulfate shampoo every two weeks or four, every month or two weeks do a protein treatment, did I say low manipulation because too much will break your hair. Have a good day 🙂
use rice water 3-2 times a week❤
YOUR HAIR LOOKSSS SOOO GOOOOD
Annesha Adams thank you so much love!
That's why I stop going to hair stylist.. they cut off too much hair.. I go in with long hair.. I come out with hair up to my ears..
Septina Willis exactly
Yes they cut to much off when you only ask for them to cut bit off they get carry away with the scissor

NaturalReign Do you ever braid your hair? What is your everyday morning routine?
NaturalReign This is the first video of yours that I watched and I love your personality! Plus your hair is definitely my personal hair goal😎
Where do you purchase the almond oil?
Thanks
NaturalReign hey is it true that water is moisture? Do you use wild growth oil? If so does it work? I need your help please. My hair has a lot of Dandruff's and I don't know why. It's damaged and very dry and it's short. Help me please what should I do.
Haven’t even watched the full video yet & i already 100% agree with the dont go to your stylist tips. I had a stylist i was going to since i was little and never saw much growth till i left & started doing my own hair.
Looking like a young Chaka Khan! You go Sis!
Sherri Solomon yes! That's who she looks like. Absolutely beautiful.
Ok no shade but y'all reaching.. she's beautiful but definitely not chaka Khan lol
I knew it was serious when you took the notebook out 😂❤️
Elysha Castillo Right! Show me the notebook so I know it’s real 😂
NaturalReign I’m about to make me a whole schedule because of this video😂 about to get my own notebook
Elysha Castillo
Yes
This is probably the best video I’ve seen on hair growth. Thank you sis! I like how you give the tip and then explain the science behind it. For example, I know porosity is a big deal but I didn’t understand why. Also, learning your own hair and not putting your fate in the hands of your stylist is a big one. Thanks again, great video
Yummy FatKid thank you! I’m so glad you found this helpful!!
Yassss hair! I need this video girl cause I'm bald headed! Lol
Kiya Karimu Lmao you have me dead 😂😂
Kiya Karimu Keep drink a lot of water to start. Also please start by knowing your hair porosity... That's the best part of brilliant growth
Kiya Karimu 😂😂😂😂😂
Same 😂😂
Lmaoooo me affff
I'm sat under a hair steamer right now watching your video, your hair is beautiful, I'm determined to get there!
Baby, your hair gives me LIIIIFE!😍💆🏾♀️
Great tips. This was very informative and well spoken.
"Healthy hair grows" I like that. In the last years I would be in a stressful job and it affected my health and hair health and today I am already in reverse and heal mode, changed my job and going vegan, so how would you go about supporting and nourishing the scalp, increase blood circulation, and the follicle?
Scalp massages are both relaxing and helpful... see curly proverbz UA-cam.
Very helpful !! It made me realize that I used to have a routine and I don't anymore, I will get back to it! 2020 we still hereee
One of my hair crushes ♡♡♡
Gem Floral I’m honored love!! 💕💕
Same😍😍😍😍
Gem Floral 👍
Marbelys C. Amparo D.L morning
Great
I agree with the #1 reason! A lot of stylist have just switched to natural care, so they're learning too! I agree with you lady, learn your hair yourself! Be consitent with your hair is soooo TRUE! Love honey.
FINALLY FOUND MY HAIR GOAL!!! now this is hair. will follow you from now on. why am I just finding you ugh
The moment you said stop going to the salon is when I clicked the thumbs up button! I watched this entirely and think this will help me. I'm determined to stay natural and not just for a few months as I've done in the past.
That one curl in the middle lol
You are such a blessing and thank you for getting to the point.
Her hair is actual GOALS 😀😂😍
THEONEANDONLYME Price thank you honey!!
Much thickness, rate of growth, & texture is genetics. Mine will only grow but so lengthy; yours is quite bushy & lengthy ~ really nice!
I really liked what you said about knowing your hair. I haven't been to a salon In over 10 years. I've been taking care of my hair since. I use to get perms but I stopped in 2008 now my hair had broken off and I really didn't know what to do so I decided to braid my hair and really take care of it. Then aftèr awhile i notice that my hair was growing the only thing I did was to leave my hair alone for at least 3 months at a time then I would wash condition my hair and it worked , now my hair is to my bra stap in the back and as of now I still were my hair in braids but I deep condition my hair evèry two weeks I don't use a lot of shampoo but I do wash my hair and deep condition it more.
This is the put on! Thank you, because I was clueless, because I have had my hair in locks for over10 yrs... N now I'm a new type of natural with my original curl.. SO this is super helpful! Thank you!
Thanks for the response. I am giving my hair more attention than I use to and through couponing able to try more things. Some work some don't. One of the best products I have tried is aussie moisture products. The deep conditioner is extremely good.
I have not been to a salon in 9 years!!! I don’t miss it!!! Lol! I have been doing my own hair since 2009 when I started transitioning and especially since I went natural in 2010.
Very informative I agree. I always say listen to your hair and I agree with the salon visits. During the consultations I need to know exactly what products you plan to use and the process your going to use. Awesome video.
Thank you🙌🏽 for letting us know why people say to do certain things to your hair! I never knew why exactly oil goes on last! I love your detail !
This was so helpful, thank you! I just recently cut ALL my hair off in April to start over with my natural journey so I need all the help I can get. Loved this video, definitely subscribed ❤️
Girl I feel you!!!! I say the same things in my videos!! I 100% agree with all the steps provided. These same tips have helped me obtain healthy and long hair.
I’m the only natural one in my house, so I try everything I can but nothing seems to work. Thank you so much for this video ❤️❤️❤️
you're so pretty girl and have a lovely good energy + vibe. Thank you for the tips, been watching you for a while your hair inspires me so beautiful! Much love
All of your points are correct except for the last one. There are moisturizing oils and sealant oil. A moisturizing oil could be olive oil while a sealant oil can be castor oil.
Chanel Valentine thank you! I learned something new. My biggest point that I was trying to stress is that I would not just use an oil on my hair. It just isn’t enough for my hair and also for a lot of people with natural hair.
KLove Everyone's hair is different. My hair loves olive oil; coconut oil dries it out.
KLove I know diet plays a role in hair health. I don't eat meat. However everyday I have ground flax seed, chia seeds, take B12 and drink tons of water. My hair is long and healthy.
KLove I take B12 (sublingal)
KLove If you're asking if I drink alcohol, I will drink socially, a few times a year. As for dairy, yes! I love my cheese. However, non-dairy milk; almond or flax milk. My everyday drink is water and green tea, no soda.
Thank you for explaining about the porosity thing and oil...I was putting oil and my hair remained dry!! I just tried your method and yes, now I know I have a low porosity hair. Thank you!!!
4:28 the way she said "SIS I CANT BREATHE"😂😂😂
Subscribed bc of this video. Hair texture twins. I totally feel this video. It spoke to me. Will be using the tips. I'm all natural but have been using on this journey for years just learning on my own with no guidance. I just been listening to my hair and what has always worked for it since I was a child. I've picked up on no nos and bounced back quickly from scissor happy stylists that went in on my hair or bad hands in my head that just didnt belong and my hair broke off with protective styles and myself nourishing it back to good health and growth. Now I am actually taking guidance as to understand what I am doing bc it is at a length I do not want to mess up and want to continue to feed and grow.
I'm a hair stylist and I learned much from u thanks
I've found my hair twin!!! My daughter introduced me to your channel & I'm hooked already.
Now this is beautiful haiR!
Nina's Akashic Records thanks love!! 💕
This was very helpful, especially the part about checking the ingredients on the products. I haven't done that, but I am doing it today! I also appreciated hearing that the oils lock in the moisture that you already have in your hair instead of moisturizing your hair. Thank you for these helpful hints!
Just discovered you and LOVE you Sis! The info is on point and your delivery is REAL! The thumbs down are trippin'!
Very helpful information about prososity and ingredients in hair products. Thank you very much.
8:03 there are some oils that both penetrate AND seal - the Moroccan argan oil that you use does that
Thank you for the pointers. You definitely know what your talking about.
Love the big hair
Ms ch thanks love!!
Big Hair, Don't Care. I like that
I'm so happy that you didn't say anything about rice water or protein formula or any of that shit which did not work. Your routine seems legit and trustworthy. Thank you so much for the advice! You have gotten a new subscriber!
You are spot on with that first tip! I like my hair stylist she's really nice and very gentle with my hair, but I noticed that I retain more length and my hair grows more when I do my hair. I just don't do my hair because I'm SO LAZY!!! Lol! But 2018, I'm going to try to do my own hair more.
Omg I want to hug you! You broke this down soooooo well!!! THANK YOU! THAT YOU! THANK YOU!!!
A GODDESS WITH NO MAKEUP YALL MAD
Facts
Thanks for this video. I never knew which porosity my hair was. It was really helpful.
You forgot GENETICS!
Genetics don't actually play a role in how much hair you have.
ad0re.faith it does...in my father's family side, their hair tends to grow really fast, my paternal grandmother had long hair until she was in her 80s (we are 300% black from Ivory Coast - West Africa) However, it's definitely not the same on my Mother's side, women don't have thick, long hair which grows fast.
Stéphanie Faye okay to a certain point you are correct but she is right genetics do not matter no matter your black white hispanic Japanese whatever it doesn't matter it just matters how you take care of it with products you put in it and acts like your grandmother's or your mom what put would they put in their hair and that's basically that you're next part and everything else is correct so and on my mom's side is Hispanic black white and Geechee Indian so oh my dad's side is white german-irish black Native American Etc so my hair my hair grows fast back but you just have to take care of it and you will see results
Asia Fire genetics do play a part in your rate of hair growth.
genetics most definitely play a huge role in how fast your hair grows! but if ur not taking care of it well, your actions are to blame, not your genetics. idk what sum of yall up there talm bout “it barely plays a role”
Thank you for explaining porosity! It's going to make a big difference in my hair growth now.
Hair goals 😩❤️🔥
Not only do you have great hair but your skin is amazing too!!
This video has been so helpful👌🏽
seriously I am just coming across this video and I was like that can not be all her hair. Gurl it is absolutely beautiful you got a new subbie boo
Thank you for the tips. I watched your video twice and purchased the fro butter. I currently wear my hair in protective styles. I just started taking a multivitamin and drinking more water. I’m hoping my hair responds well to these changes. Thank you again!!
ttschex I'm sure your hair is thanking you already for drinking all that water. 😊
I'm 3.5 minutes in and have to add this vid and the next to my watch later list, but I am so here for this.
thank you for the posts. I am head nodding all the way and literally laughing out loud while taking note.
I'll b back!
"If you made it to the end of this video, you a real one!" 😂😂😂😂 Love it!! I stopped going to my beautician for 5 months and really notice the difference. And yes people ask if I'm wearing a weave. Nope I just love my hair so I treat it right.
I love this video because this is the real honest truth. Listen to yourself and your hair
“I can’t breathe , sis I can’t breathe ” 😭😭
Girl, your hair is POPPPPPPINNN
I agree on the hair routine because when i washed my hair with conditioner every week then shampoo the last week my hair grew a lot. But im in college and I do a lot. I really dont have time to have a hair routine and my hair breaks off a alot. I do wear wigs as well so i dont touch it but my hair gets dry a lot as well. Its just a lot in college.
Sadae Bey Tv I understand! I’m in college too girl!
Thank you for spelling things out so clearly!!!! you’ve just helped me understand what I need to keep doing to see more hair growth
Had to pause the video for a second . I’m in the process of combing out my locs so I’m watching so many new videos that I’ve missed over this past year of locing my hair (I missed actually doing my hair and I was only going to loc them for a year anyway) anywho, you mentioned she wasn’t trying to work with you with your hair and it forced you to cut her off and that in return had you learn your hair and had it grow . People need to take this advice passed their hair . If someone , an actual PERSON is holding you back from your goals , they aren’t trying to listen and communicate with you , CUT THEM OFF ! You will learn who you are like you learned your hair , and you will grow as a person like as your hair grew ! We can’t let nothing hold us back whether it’s our hair , our lives , our careers , friendships , anything ! This is OUR LIFE ! WE are in control ! Thanks for sending this message indirectly even if you didn’t know that’s what you did but that hit home for me and you have definitely won a new subscriber . Sorry for taking everything so deep #Scorpio 😂😂
Salathia Logan lol girl it’s fine I’m a Scorpio too!! ❤️❤️
Serenity thanks ! ☺️
Growing Better Oh my gosh you sound just like me!!! I’m a Scorpio too and I’m passionate as hell! 😂😂😂 I love it! Lol
Tuff. I'm a Scorpio too. Also have dreads for 3-4 years and thinking about cutting probably 2020.
I love it! And Yes - My hair done grown so much since I left perms, and my stylist! My stylist told me to use creme on my hair, and that is the trick to Natural hair. When you on a budget - you can use your EBT Card, and buy Olive oil, or Coconut oil and DIY!
That was some real stuff little mama. Great!!! Can wait to try all the recommended oils.
Anything that grows and moves is LIFE , you guys may not realize it but your hair is LIFE . Talk to it , nuture it , speak life unto it and it will flourish .
Love this video and your hair. I’m trying to grow out my tapered cut so this was needed
Amen.. I totally agree with you.. I stop going to salon.. they love to cut , cut , cut.. get super happy doing it.
*taking notes 📝* 😩
Pretty Presh *Ditto!*
Pretty Presh 😂😂 literally
Haa same !!!
thx for the tips! i really like the fact you went straight to the point and that your face wasn't covered up under heavy make up x)
I got my notebook 💪😭 yaszzzz . Thank you beautiful for this. All the best for the new year
Amen.. to that...totally agree that my stylist just love her scissors and always love to chop chop... so i stop ..I learn to deal with my hair... .But honestly I am so in love with your hair... which i stared u
Making my own oils and products... because all I spend on didn't work for me
