I am 5 months in. I have no idea what I’m doing. I only wash my hair once or twice a week. What products do I use for styling and when do I go for maintenance cuts if at all. Thanks for your videos 👍
Maintenance cuts: basically just look for signs of split ends but a good time period is every 6-8 months have a professional stylist give you a trim. Be sure to go to a salon not some mediocre place and tell them you’re growing your hair long. Trims keep your hair growing healthy. Washing: everyones hair is different so this is a loaded question but just test and try different things. Do an experiment one time and see how long it takes for your hair to get oily. This could vary due to exercise or dirt from outside etc… don’t shampoo unless you need to clean your hair. Shampoo strips your natural oils. You can also wash your hair with apple cider vinegar and water mixed together instead. When doing either of these only rub into your scalp and not your hair ends. The water and suds will take care of the rest when you rinse. Always condition really good afterwards and leave it in for 10 minutes at least. After the shower dry your hair with a t shirt and then use some type of hair oil (coconut, avacado, argon etc…)
Hey I have a question when I wake up in the morning my hair looks very big so I feel like I have to wet it to tame it down, can u tell me another option besides wetting it
So this is a difficult question without knowing your hair type especially. You can try wearing a beanie to bed to keep it tamed down when you wake. Using some type of hair oil before bed will reduce friction so this will help controlling frizz. A silk pillow case is important as well to sleep on. After showering at night use a t shirt or microfiber cloth and gently dry followed by a little oil. Prevention before you lay your head down would help and then how you sleep also. But honestly if you have to wet it then you could use a spray bottle abs spritz it to tame it some instead of soaking
@@The_Jedi thank you so much this really helps a lot I have 2c-3a hair and I’ve grown it out a year now so it’s not quite long yet we’re it flows down so I’m trying my best to keep down. Thanks for advice once again your videos and seeing your hair progress give me a lot of hope to one day reach that length 🙏🏻
Love your vids!
