I think braiding your own hair (knotless) is actually better if you have your own hair braided and not use weave. I think its the chemicals in the hair weave (synthetic) has chemicals in it and I actually think this is what causes more than usual shedding. Also, you need a good pre poo, or a product like Taliyah Wajid to place on the new growth and allow to sit on the hair before actually gently combing.
I've read many articles that synthetic braiding hair cuts into your hair shafts and cause damage. Don't leave hair braided more than 4 to 6 weeks if using it. Keep it moisturized and clean. Most will not shampoo their braids if left in for long periods for fear of frizzing. But, what's more important, the cosmetic look or healthy hair? Best thing if possible is to braid or twist your own hair. If not use human hair. It's more expensive but not damaging to your strands.
Repent and believe the gospel. Jesus died to save you from hell and punishment He took the penalty of your sins so that you live in heaven with Him in heaven for all eternity
Biggest mistake is detangling wet. Detangle dry, with an oil or serum. Take your time taking the hair down..seem like you left some knots while taking it down
Please may you show us how to take care of braids. I got my hair braided and I want to take care of it so my natural hair can have a break from heat ❤ I would really appreciate it
I love how u mix in spanish on ur videos girlyyy!! Im Dominican and honestly u kinda sound Domi too but like are ya girl?? Also your hair is sauurrr pretty, your curls are so gorgeus and you as well 😫😫😭💗💗
That clump of hair you see when taking down braids is nothing but shredded hair that couldn't fall out because your hair was locked in braids. So your hair isn't falling out.
People forget protective styles only are protecting your hair while it grows. Protective styles don’t MAKE your hair grow though. So still shampoo and hydrate your hair while it’s in the protective style to retain length and integrity🤝🏽😊
A suggestion. Don't manipulate your hair straight out of the braid. Just take them down, no comb, and then don't wash for a couple of days. So your hair can rest in between the manipulation.
What did you use in your hair at the end of the video? Your hair is gorgeous. I have a daughter with thick, long, hair and woukd love to try it on her hair.
I just want to add...STOP wearing protective styles back to back!! Let your hair be natural and curly and free for at least 2 weeks before getting it redone.
I concur. How do you keep your hair up in a protective style?!?!? Like what do you do on a daily? Do you moisturizer daily or every other day? Do a shampoo and conditioner wash like once a week or co wash?? We need to know the details? Because that amount of shed I do shed every week not every 3 weeks. We need to know? Do you have a video not 30 seconds in a short to find out? Me: waiting patiently for your response 🤔.... seriously please help ?!?!?
Hair shedding is normal IMO Ive had plenty white friends and seen how much hair they shed everyday..but their hair still grows Lol ive learned with blk hair, its really simple but we complicate and interrupt the natural process Blk hair needs minimum and natural care Water Oil And LEAVE IT ALONE And you will see growth👍
If you wash it with clove water or star anise water. Rice water and coffee are good for stimulating hair growth. After I use coffee grounds I save them and add them to rice and the water from that is restorative
@@nmynmy482 I use High End Shampoos and Conditioners, which leave my hair soft, because, I do braids often , after I wash my hair. I Use Mielle Products, Nexus, or KENRA! They are great products for dry hair.
I agree with you. Protective styles without added hair definitely help my hair grow (mini twists have my hair thriving rn lol). Protective styles with added hair are good for my hair if as long as I take care of them.
Your “shedding” was very much normal… it’s normal to loose up to 100 strands of hair per day…. So after an entire month… yeah that’s nothing. Your hair is healthy and growing in the correct pattern.
@@JeneanWilliamsit is lmaooo. But you can also shed hair for many different reasons with protective styles such as dry ends, SHEDDING, stress, the hair products you use, and etc. Its normal lmaoo, I’ve seen more hair being shed than that. Y’all act like everyone’s hair will shed the same amount and it won’t. Her hair is healthy, y’all want to be the hair judge to bad
@@LadybeetleMaddoxshe literally just said she had the braids in for a month. so if you have *shorter* hair & shed the same amount then it means she actually shed less than you?…
Shedding can be normal. It also can be excessive. Protective styles like braids are heavy and weaken the hair strands and scalp. When you take down, some of the natural shed hairs tangle and pull the regular (anagen phase) hairs. It looks like you’re shedding a normal amount. But not all types of hair handles braids well and sheds well. When taking braids down, the best way is honestly to grease up hair and scalp and wait before detangling and washing. At least 12-24 hours. Get your hair strong again and then wash and all that. You may also shed way way less.

Yes protective hair styles in courage hair growth I wear protective hair style s for 2 months my favourite protective hairstyle is knotless box braid s my relaxed hair grows long in protective hair styles when I have had them for 2 months along side using wild growth hair oil and taken iron supplements also eating a healthy diet
Protective hairstyles, especially braids works wonders for my hair especially when I did a huge chop like five years ago. Now I can honestly say my hair is about shoulder length.
This is exactly why I want to do the big chop. I want to start all over. I have so many split ends. I tried to explain this to the woman who did my hair before she installed any braids 😢 Idk anymore lol
Just copy what us guys do. We have our hair in cornrows/braids for a couple of weeks and don't do too much, no bleaching and frying your hair and you'll retain length
@@StarC2233 My guess is that their hair gets hot under those wigs so gets excessively sweaty. Are most of them moisturising their hair under the wigs? Either way, less is more...
@@myafrosheenI’m wearing a protective style rn (crochet braids) and my hair has cornrows underneath but I keep them moisturized 3 times a week and it never fails me.
For some reason my hair does not like synthetic hair. My hair thrives in mini twists but fails in braids with added hair. So my main style is chunky twist. I like them because the oldet they get they start to look like soft locs ☺️
The way the stylists are gooking edge control throughout the style just for the Instagram look is not protecting anything. It's ripping strands left and right and causes a lot of work during the takedown process.
You lose that much hair over a month anyway. You not putting heat and pulling on it daily yes your hair will grow. But topical products only do so much. Eat for your hair
I wear protective styles WITHOUT added hair. I hate that protective styling has become synonymous with added hair (feed-in braids, weaves, wigs, and extensions). There ARE other protective styles.
Everyone isn't as privileged as you & not having fake hair isn't a flex. You could have a health problem at any point. People don't only wear these things for vanity. The presumption of that, is very self exalting. Protective means different things to different people @#Don't judge!

Some you can do yourself and others may require a skilled professional. It’s also important to make sure as little tension as possible is put on your follicles, i.e., they should never pull or cause pain. For me, wearing my hair In several plaits under a well-styled head wrap is also an option. In 2022, I purchased my first wig. It has bangs and doesn’t require glue. I just have to pull it on. That falls under the “protective style” umbrella, but it’s damage-free. Some people like to stretch their hair by blow drying before before styling. I don’t because I try to use heat as sparingly as possible.
Scalp is apart of your skin, which the biggest organ. An uhealthy scalp and/or scalp issues, leads to a downward spiral of all that the beauty industry makes bank on. Heal your scalp if needed and maintain its health, all else will follow.
Protective styles are great just don't leave it in too long. Remember hair grows faster when pores are not clogged on your scalp. Wash hair after 2-3 weeks. Eat healthy avoiding sugary foods. Your hair will grow 😊
Personally, when I was doing my hair every now and then I had so much breakage! But since I started protective styles for two or three weeks with my own hair, conditioning every week and washing every two weeks, I finally saw growth!
i decided to STOP going to the salon because my front hairs just all of a sudden became so weak that just combing hurts, so no matter how gentle the hairstylist is, it ends up hurting and cutting horribly. I'm too young to look like an old bald man yo. Now I just do my loose cornrows and wear a wig over it.
You hair shed 80 strands a day, you figure you had your had braided for a month, of course all the shed hair will come out. You grow 6 inches of hair a year, protective styles help you not manipulate you hair so much and protect your ends
They are you just need to take care of your hair and scalp during the time you have your protective hairstyle. Your hair will shred even if you don’t have a protective hairstyle. The right products matter too for your “hair type”.
Meanwhile, here I am with my knotless braids for two months 😂 I am trying to go three months, and see how much my hair has grown. Especially since it costs so much.
Yea! Wild growth is best! I did a year with getting braids every month! Omg! And I take really good care of my hair! SMH! My hair was thin and I had to cut so much off… it did nothing! If I get knotless again…. I’m only getting 10! I’m never doing mediums or smalls again! Never!
I think the key to protective styles is to not let the hair get matted 🤔😉😍
🎉
Bingo
Agreed
& to keep them very moisturised
Matted?? Yh you're clearly not black if these styles matt you're hair. Clearly not for you these style.
I think it’s also important to maintain a clean and healthy scalp. Regardless of how your hair is styled, it needs a healthy environment to grow
I think braiding your own hair (knotless) is actually better if you have your own hair braided and not use weave. I think its the chemicals in the hair weave (synthetic) has chemicals in it and I actually think this is what causes more than usual shedding. Also, you need a good pre poo, or a product like Taliyah Wajid to place on the new growth and allow to sit on the hair before actually gently combing.

Okay who is your braider, PLEASE? She is great
We need to start explicitly saying protective styles without added hair vs. with added hair. It's like everyone forgot about the former🙃
Proof is in the pudding, your hair is GORGEOUS
Your hair is gorgeous 🥰 ugh I wish I had hair like yours 😍
ROLLER SETTING IS BEST. Roller setting hair and keeping it pinned grows hair cause it is not as tight.
Repent and believe the gospel. Jesus died to save you from hell and punishment He took the penalty of your sins so that you live in heaven with Him in heaven for all eternity
Agree I think people get lazy when they wear wigs, braids, or whatever they neglect their real hair you can't do that. You end up damaging your hair.
I feel like the amount of shedding is normal if not little compare to how much most people would shed. You look so pretty btw!!!
If done with care and taken out with care, yes. I be chopping some of my hair because I'm trying to lessen the take down time. 😂
Biggest mistake is detangling wet.
Detangle dry, with an oil or serum.
Take your time taking the hair down..seem like you left some knots while taking it down
Please may you show us how to take care of braids. I got my hair braided and I want to take care of it so my natural hair can have a break from heat ❤ I would really appreciate it

That's definitely not 4c hair
Ok, so how do I protect my hair when I have braids coz I’m so iffy about getting braids again but I want them so bad😭
What is the music in the background? Whew issa vibe!!
A suggestion. Don't manipulate your hair straight out of the braid. Just take them down, no comb, and then don't wash for a couple of days. So your hair can rest in between the manipulation.
As someone with straight hair I always wondered, this kinds of hairstyles don't put tension on the scalp?
What did you use in your hair at the end of the video? Your hair is gorgeous. I have a daughter with thick, long, hair and woukd love to try it on her hair.
I think its good for length retention, but I def thinks u should still be washing your hair. Months of braids without a lick of hydration 😭.
My hair sheds way more that that with braids. Braids with fake hair is not good for my hair. I think it depends on your hair type
I just want to add...STOP wearing protective styles back to back!! Let your hair be natural and curly and free for at least 2 weeks before getting it redone.

Blk hair needs minimum and natural care
Water
Oil
And LEAVE IT ALONE
And you will see growth👍
Long heavy small braids will break your hair
Not good for fine hair due to the tension and weight of the braids
That’s too heavy to be a protective style.
HOw
No.
Your shedding after a month is less than my "wash every 2 days" shedding! Very impressive
Clove can be made into a tea so your hair can almost not shed
If you wash it with clove water or star anise water. Rice water and coffee are good for stimulating hair growth. After I use coffee grounds I save them and add them to rice and the water from that is restorative
check your iron and ferritin levels. I used to shed so much but since I increased my iron levels my shedding has decreased immensely
Do a black tea rinse that alway sets me right. I had this issue too and I was terrified but the tea rinse worked
